Looking forward: 4 step plan
1. Get surgery or rehab non-invasively to address that stress rxn injury.
2. Trim weight; get back to being more mobile
3. Get a MF’n 2-way starting caliber 5
4. Aim “4” DPoY
Vando-Bron-AD ain’t it longterm defensively. Vando belongs on big 2s/small 3s. Put dude in the backcourt. It should be (and should have already f’n been)

He will remove the bone spur either way this off season and it would be much better he avoid any further stress reaction. |

Which centers can we realistically go after? I want AD back at the 4, atleast for the regular season. I still think we should have a roster of 3 centers + AD (one can be a two way contract). He needs to remain in good shape for the post season

Every time I doubt this dude. He proves me wrong.
Every time he starts to make me a believer. He disappoints.
So I guess I'll keep doubting him. For the good of the team.

Bamba, he could be a good fit of healthy. Young enough he still has room to improve. If you can pair him with a banger type physical big and Wenyen you’re probably good. Use your pick to find that guy. |

I like Bamba too but i want someone who can start with AD. Gabriel is more of a 4 to me and i think we should add more
One starter
Bamba
One two way or vet min
AD
Gabriel
Something like that

You think Vando should play at guard? How would that work?

And the other question is which guard you take out in that scenario? Dlo or Reaves?
no thanks

I think JJJ and even moreso Sabonis will be simply outclassed. A motivated AD who is hungry for another title with the know-how of what it takes to be a champion and not to mention AD is already better than those two??? BBQ Chicken for those two. Ill give Jokic a little more respect but I see that as a more cancelling out each other. |

| As I keep saying, nothing AD does surprises me. Hopefully the ankle will be ok. Sometimes they can be a problem after the body cools down. |

He’s currently projected as the 54th pick. And with Purdue being that 1st seed team that lost in the first round (even though it was obviously not Edey’s fault), that stock fell down a bit. At least enough where we can use our 2nd round pick for him.

Playing the Wolves shows the exact blueprint for the Lakers.
Let Davis have the freedom to play as KAT does. Especially on defense where Davis exceeds KAT significantly.
Don’t care if it is Bamba, Edy or yet to be named players. Pelinka needs to find a couple reliable centers to protect Davis throughout the season.
Biggest issue will be James. Can he defend the SF position effectively night in and night out. Perhaps he should be trimming down 20pts, working for mobility and maybe a few less thunder dunks for show. All ways to protect those aging legs and feet.
Re-signing Vanderbilt and Rui would help keep James mpg down next season.
Depth, depth, and more depth should be the plan. Starting with a couple legitimate centers |

Imagine if AD was healthy all the time, he would become one of the greatest bigs ever to play the game. Scary good.

Edey hasn't declared for the draft yet and he may spend another year in college. |
