Lakers off season thread

[DKLaker]

Goudelock wasn't very impressive in summer league. He shot 23% from the 3 pt line and averaged less than 10 ppg. Darius Morris actually played far better. Of course, the Lakers summer league team in general wasn't all that impressive. I'm not expecting much from any of the young guys.

I don't take ANYTHING seriously that happens in Summer League.....good or bad. Goudelock already has a spot on the team so he was probably just using S.L to get back into shape. I've seen way too many S.L superstars turn into immediate NBA busts.

Looks like DK and I were posting at the same time, lol. Yeah, it really seems like McRoberts could be part of a deal.

I know it's not always true what happens in summer league happens during the season. There's plenty of guys that shine there that don't play well after that. The thing is Goudelock didn't play well. That was just a super poor summer league season for him. If he's not in shape then I don't know how his game would've got any better. That tells me he didn't put in the work this offseason.

Very pleased Hill is returning.

Means Mcroberts is out soon.

Awesome victories so far in Hill, Jamison and Nash.. the only concern is that the Lakers now go from a solid defensive minded team (supposedly the only thing that Brown is good for) to a primary offensive minded team.

The question still remains.. is Brown competent enough to take this team to a title?

Wow just relooked at my original post and saw how off I was.

So at the moment we have kept our core of Lobe Bynum and Gasol...kept Hill and signed Jamison and Steve Nash. Amazing!!!

And yes we can still swap out Bynum for Howard when all is said and done. Regardless.... Great offseason. We also still have half MLE right?


Can't wait till next season starts.

Still hoping Matt Barnes comes back for us, what with Grant Hill signing with the Clips. And if we can trade McBob for Rush...well, this might very well be our best offseason since acquiring Shaq

Serious though, everything is going right for us and we are filling our needs quite well. We needed a starting pg (Nash), a real sixth man (Jamison), and a solid bench (Blake/Rush/Barnes/Jamison/Hill)...very excited about next season

Rush, lets hope so

Rush, lets hope so

I say that's a pipe dream but would be nice.

I guess we can thing Nash for getting us Hill back!!!

Not a pipe dream, if you look at who the Warriors signed and who they have you'll see that Rush is NOT in their plans for this season at all, he will definitely be moved......he will be moved for a PF or draft picks and since McRoberts is a PF, we have a legit shot.
