Get rid of nash (only pay 3mill a year)
Sign Eric Bledsoe (13-14 mill a year)/greg monroe (10~mill a year)
Trade lottery pick+gasol for Kevin love
trade meeks/hill for late 1st round (phoenix/charlotte/spurs). This allows them to trade the lottery pick.
Bledsoe
Kobe
Wes Johnson
Love
Monroe
Bench: Nick young (great contract/6th man of year candidate)
Marshall/farmar
Harris
sacre
late 1st rounder (perhaps get dejuan blair for vets min)
Final roster: PG:Bledsoe/marshall/farmar
SG: Kobe/young
SF: johnson/harris
PF: Love/Blair/kelly
C: Monroe/Sacre/late 1st rounder
Fire d'antoni (100% going to happen). Try to get phil, but probably won't happen, so get Lionel Hollins/George karl
1.) - Eric Bledsoe is a restricted FA so we won't get him. The Suns will give him a max deal.
- Nash's expiring contract might be useful next season so I'd keep him.
- I wouldn't trade a lottery pick for Love if he's coming to LA anyway. We'd be better off waiting to sign him in 2015. We'd save money.
- If Melo wants to leave NY we should get him. Otherwise if we force Melo to stay in NY there's a good chance Kevin Love might sign in NY. 2015 the Lakers will compete with NY maybe Chicago and Miami for free agents. IMO we should make a significant move this year.
2.) Forcing Phoenix to give Bledsoe a max contract would be a win for the lakers. He's not worth that. Nash 9mill salary is too much if you want to sign multiple free agents. I think we should send lottery pick now because we would waste an entire year of kobe if we wait another year. The lakers will be terrible next year if they do that. Carmelo does not fit with kobe. Not worth max contract anyways
3.) Love is a second option so who will be your number 1 option?
4.) Love is a great player but he puts up empty stats and he doesn't make those around him better. I'd take him with Melo but if Love is the Lakers #1 option. then welcome to the Minneapolis Lakers.
5.) Kobe is the #1 option. Kobe/love duo would be great
6.) 2014 lakers say will get eric bledsoe phoenix suns get pau gasol goodbye lakers tim move on wish
7.) When Kobe retires who will be the #1 option?
8.) 2014 2015 lakers yes happe get eric bledsoe get kevin love suns happe get pau gasol goodbye
Randolph and deng are both past their prime and don't fit kobe. Their team wouldn't even be competing for top4 west teams. I'm sorry, but that is a horrible idea
Kobe is the #1 option. Kobe/love duo would be great
