Wayne Ellington still has a soft heart for the Lakers when the Lakers were giving him a lot of PT back in the dark days, I would welcome him back.

Not a lot of talk about JaMychal Green but if Morris signs elsewhere he would be a solid get but we probably can’t expect him to sign for the vet minimum.


He just turned down his $7.6m player option on a team that as long as healthy next year will be a contender. Why would he now sign for the min?

Big 3 might intrigue him, I don’t know... we do know that it’s been reported that a flood of veteran FAs are gonna want to join and help the Lakers.

Could be something, or could be nothing.

Maybe Nets just want DC to add some sweeteners?
Maybe Spencer's agent made the whole thing up about DC wanting him?
Maybe that's the rumor DC came up with to get Adam Silver off their trail over the tampered 4 team deal πŸ˜‰

One thing that's in our favor?

There is competition for our vet min.


We will likely have our pick of guys who want the vet min and even some guys who could get the MLE/mMLE and will take the vet min for us.


I expect our roster to be 90-95% complete by 6pm EST on Monday. ALL of the players who want the min have likely contacted the Lakers AND the ones we want have AGREED to JOIN the Lakers already.

We're just waiting for the announcements.

Hopefully what your saying isn’t true, because the league would take our future draft picks away if the Lakers were caught with tampering.

NBA isn't trying to police vet mins. That would be petty. Guys have reached out to LeBron/AD/RW and they have told Rob who they want.

Can't finalize anything until 8/6 anyway so no details have to be released on Monday.

There is a difference between recruiting and then having players already agreeing to join, I know these things are already pre-planned but no need to make it obvious especially since the NBA is after the Lakers and every little thing they do.

Jake the snake isn't sure DDR would take the mmle. Awww. But we'll see.


He also mentions Chicago wanting to bring in multiple point guards.
Seems doubtful, but I guess I can hold out hope for Lonzo and Dennis both on the Bulls.

That is fine. If we are being honest he wasn't the best fit here pre Westbrook and even worse fit post Westbrook.

Fine. Lonzo for Markannen to the Pels in a sign-and-trade, then DS to the Bulls for Satoransky and some change coming back to us.

How about this…

THT (signed for the full mid level exception amount of around 10 million)
Gasol
McKinnie
Matthews (signed for around 4 million which is allowed as an extension of his previous salary)

This gets us to 18.5 million which is enough to trade for Hield (23 million)
We could also send cash as a promise to buy out Matthews, which is how you get him to agree to the deal. Maybe we also have to throw in a 2nd.

Sucks to give up THT, but we have 2 years to win championships, and Hield gives us a better chance to win now.
