    Hoping for Giannis, preparing for Ant Edwards

    But he is not the first Antetokounmpo to get a ring from the Lakers

    Ant is the most likely imo. Don’t think Giannis is a fan of big markets.

    Okay read this carefully, because most people don’t realize how many assets we have after this year. It really depends on Lebron’s timeline though. The assets we can trade next summer are 3 1sts (2024 or 2025, 2029, 2031) and 3 swaps and JHS, Vando, Rui.

    If Lebron retires in 2 years, then you go the cap space route for Giannis/Tatum, trade those assets for best player available on a cheap deal like Bridges/Brunson so you keep max cap space.

    If Lebron has multiple seasons left, you go all in next summer and trade for a star. Those assets are pretty much the KD package, so do with that what you want.

    I would take giannis or luka 😂 anyone else will be disappointing. If i had to go a step down maybe id take shai or ant

  6. ANT, Giannis, maaaaaybe Trae Young (I hope not). Regardless Lakers are set up nice for the future.

    Depends when/who’s available, and the AD/roster situation. Gonna probably need 2 players to replace what he brings lol.

    People want Giannis, and it could work out, but AD, and him might not be a good fit. Then it’s just bad spacing, and no one to run the offense. Sound familiar…

    People dont like Trey as much, but he scores, and dishes as well as anyone in the league. Lakers have defensive pieces coming together to help cover him. Doubt Atlanta will let him walk.

    Lonzo, and BI! Lonzo might come back, but BI won’t, and we don’t really want Ball.

    Doubt we could get dame by then if ever, but he’d be interesting depending on his health then.

    Would Morant ever force his way out, or wear out his welcome by then…

    Tatum loves the Lakers, and it’s a win/win lol.

    Luka, Ant, or SGA. I wouldn’t be shocked if devin booker ends up in LA either

  9. fuckhornets

    Would definitely love to see Luka or Tatum in the purple and gold

  10. lsilv272

    I like it! A lot of youth on the roster is what was needed!

  11. just_one_random_guy

    Luka, Tatum, or Giannis would be awesome

  12. sriram_sun

    A King has to be replaced with a King (from across the seas).

  13. JoedicyMichael

    I seen Russell and had a flashback… Wrong Russell lol

  14. Smooth_97

    all i know is, Rob perfectly placed all the contracts for a shot on:

    2026 FA: Giannis, Tatum, SGA, Don, Fox, Mikal

    2027 FA: Luka, Trae

  15. Kordell81

    Luka or Lamelo. Probably Lamelo but I’d obviously prefer luka

  16. chipsanddip17

    Giannis has been pretty easy to predict for a while now

  17. heavythoughs

    Gotta be Luca-Magic right?
    He is everything Lonzo was hoped to be & hes literally got the same nickname as our saviour.

  18. LemonPepperWangz

    I’m still pissed we passed on Tatum. Don’t see him coming. Everyone would say Giannis. He would be older but of course I would still want him. Truthfully I don’t know who wants to play for us though.

  19. BearShark8

    I would’ve said Tatum but he’ll sign the super duper extreme max with Boston and they won’t trade him to LA. Edwards maybe.
