I think what the lakers needs now is a two tower for defence. Just like their 2020 roster
Y'all are actually pretty disgusting. The series is still ongoing & although the odds are stacked against us, it's not over.
Y'all can at least wait until the series is over before y'all restart the Kyrie begging.
Lakers basically publicly insulted him. Fat chance lol
It'll be DLo and a draft pick
F the Lakers
Lakers could make it happen without giving up too much but i doubt he stays in Dallas
Yes you have to LA, but can he take less to keep roll players?
They don’t need Kyrie. The Lakers need bigs for Jokic, Embiid, Sabonis etc.
No run it back make some slight changes
People just don't understand lebron could care less about about this series. He just wanna stay healthy until his son come. Then he gone show his a** again
If Kyrie gonna play with Lebron, KD should back to the Warriors. No Shame
If you replace DLO with Kyrie, lakers will be beating the Nuggets. Let’s be honest here
Don't predict no more ESPN
A lot of y’all casuals actually forgot how good of a basketball player Kyrie is. Kyrie in this lakers team would have beaten the Nuggets because nobody in the nuggets team can guard Kyrie. He’ll average 30 this series no cap 🧢
Just when you give the Lakers Credit for making some Good trades, they’re about to do some Dumb 💩 all over again..
AR & Rui Deserve a shot to keep Growing. They could be the Lakers Future with or without AD.
ESPN is going to be talking about this headline more than the finals the next few weeks
Yes I believe Kyrie going to Lakers is the best move for every other team in the NBA
Media wastes their time talking about this. Let's talk about how to build a championship level team like the Denver Nuggets have done.
People forget that Kyrie beat the Warriors in 2016 finals!! Who hit the go ahead 3s … LeBron will get Kyrie this off season.. If Kyrie was on this team, scoring won't be an issue that we facing now
I would just keep as many guys i possibly could
DLO has no fire and he doesn't hustle. So yes
They should be talking about the nuggets vs heat match up.
No to Kyrie. Have to pay him too much and he puts himself before any team he is a part of. No way. Teams get worse with him than without for whatever reason. I'm not a fan of harden either but I would take him over Kyrie in a heartbeat.
Kyrie and AD. LBJ has to go.
The Lakers present roster is not a title contending team.DLo should be traded along with Beasley and Vanderbilt for Kyrie. They should, if they can, keep Rui and Reaves. Lebron and AD should take a pay cut to make this work. After all,they are as dominant players as they used to be. Ham does not deserve to be a coach for this team. He is inexperienced and has poor judgment in rotating players and matchups. The Lakers need an experienced coach like Monty Williams or Doc Rivers. Ham should be fired and should not remain as coach for next season.
If they can keep Kyrie & Reaves … and they risk losing Rui I say do it. If they pull a miracle and get all of those guys … They'll be the favorites in the west. Kyrie has holes in his game but even a half healthy Bron got D Lo & Rui to play beyond their means in playoff games. Bron would put Kyrie in a position to really impact games. He's every bit as capable as doing what Jamal Murray is doing right now.
Reeves and Rui should be off limited. Period. Gotta see what they can do with another full year. The rest should be in the table
Go get Kyrie , Dame, or even Klay Thompson.
Kyrie in. Lebron Out. Kyrie has been holding out to be on the Lakers. Let the hate hate on but LBJ has to go and Kyrie had to come in. PERIOD!!!
