Came off the buss with billions, now we back in the building: Your GOAT franchise Boss Angeles Lakers 2025 offseason Thread

[Rekkapryde]

He offered to take even more.. why are we pretending this wasn’t a thing

Rob just whiffed in FA

Rob also got Luka, his replacement.

People didn't wanna play with Bron for a cheap price at the time. Is what it is.

Which is exactly why Bron will opt out AGAIN and take less to get other pieces. Breh you’re just proving my point

 

[threattonature]

this is the worse version of this team...

Bron takes a discount.. there will be bigs clamoring to play with Luka..

put AR on the bench .. he can prob compete for 6th man..

Minnesota ended up being the worse matchup for the Lakers.. out of literally the whole west playoffs teams .

I think this team just really wasn't that great this year. I think the only good matchups for the Lakers would have been Golden State who couldn't kill them inside. Every other team either has guards that would abuse the Lakers weak perimeter defense or a big that would kill them on the boards and with inside scoring.

Oh we back trying to blame Rob again huh

Idk about blame but Rob went into the playoffs with only 1 big on the roster… and that big is awful

There was clearly a limit to what this team could do this year

Problem is we're already at the second apron for NEXT SEASON ALREADY with the cap holds.

Bron takes half of his salary and we might be able to get Miles Turner. Is he willing to give up that much money?

I’d assume yes for a Myles

Rob has to actually get him tho

You werent saying that before the playoffs started. Same shyt last season.

FOH.

you really think Bron would cut his salary in half?

This team wasn’t winning a ring, and the ceiling was a WCF loss to the Thunder


Everyone was aware of this

 

[jaydawg08]

He offered a $20 million dollar haircut for Klay or Jonas last year

guess we'll see.

I think Bron retires after next season anyway.

Which is why he signs a 1+1 and takes less

Wolves are an easier matchup imo

aight Ant Man...we comin for ya

Rudy Gobert we coming for you

I'm glad we're facing the T-Wolves, to be honest.

the best outcome

Minnesota it is. Lakers in 5.

Lakers in 5

Naz Reid and Donte are the two people to watch out for on the Wolves. Gobert and Randle sucks, and Ant gonna get his points.

Luka licking his chops staring at Rudy

Can’t wait for him to scream “You can’t fukn guard me!!!” yet again

He probably only gonna see 20 mins per game. Lakers going to run small ball and hunt Gobert/Randle/Conley.

Dallas doesn’t have the top end offensive talent that Lakers have.

Plus this Timberwolves team is far worse this year than last year

They go small, and Conley gets played off the floor they have no PG besides Ant

Lakers should handle the Timbwewolves pretty easily. The Rockets with their size and athleticism is a team I'm scared of. Timberwolves have athleticism but not to that extent.

We winning it all brehs.. GUARANTEED

I thought I’d be disconnected by now but I can’t lie, I’m excited to see Luka put belt to ass again.

Really wondering if now he’ll finally get a decent whistle since he’ll he playing for premiere franchise on the big stage.

Lakers in 5

Wolves fanbase (and probably the players, too) are still mentally unwell after last postseason

nikkas were CELEBRATING playing the Wolves and casually CLOWNING THEM

now it's "Oh, well we always knew we were gonna lose. We were always flawed"

man fukk outta here. Im TIRED of the front running LeGBT energy that clouds this team now every fukking season.

 

[Torrential]

They already starting the tanking of Luka’s value

Shameless bron Stan’s
