Jarret Allen only makes $20 million this season before his extension kicks in

Maxi Kleber + Ayton + maybe a first round pick would be enough if Rob pulls the trigger

Add Ayton/Jarred to that list

I think it’s time to say we don’t have a competent gm or everyone in the league really hates pelinka

Aside from the Luka trade, what has this front office done the last 5 years other than cleaning up their own mistakes

Truly a terrible, despicable front office

feels like its the same s*** every year

hate these guys so much lol

This was 4 years ago. Will history repeat itself ??

Austin will play tonight

If teams are trading players of JJJ's caliber for 3 firsts then obvious and smart move is to hold onto our current 1st until it can be aggregated with the other two in the offseason. 1000% not trading our 1st at the deadline

"League sources said, for example, that the Lakers’ preliminary interest in De’Andre Hunter centered on whether Jarred Vanderbilt could be included in a deal, because Vanderbilt is owed $12.4 million next season and has a $13.2 million player option in 2027."

"According to league sources, the Lakers have been linked to virtually every defensive wing on the market, including Golden State’s Jonathan Kuminga, the Clippers’ Derrick Jones Jr. and Chicago’s Isaac Okoro.

Kuminga and Jones are currently injured, though. Okoro and Jones also carry contracts that would cut into cap space next summer, while Kuminga’s contract includes a team option for next year."

"The Giannis Antetokounmpo trade chase could create ripples beneficial to the Lakers.

As teams maneuver for financial flexibility, the Lakers’ expiring deals and future first-round pick could get them in conversations for high-end role players like Minnesota’s Donte DiVincenzo or Cleveland’s Jarrett Allen, though those scenarios are dependent on the Lakers’ expiring money landing with a third team (and the Lakers having limited sweeteners to incentivize teams to aid in a deal)."

"No one internally is writing off the possibility that the Lakers will look different after Thursday’s trade deadline. Rival teams still describe them as “active.”

But the reality is their lack of draft assets, players with trade value and focus on the summer could mean meaningful changes are more likely to come later rather than now."

They were trolling before but at this point I’m all for Bronny getting Gabe’s minutes at least he makes the occasional play on defense Gabe is our Tony snell, cardiologist with a weird beard

Pelinka is a terrorist btw

This why new owner should have dumped Jeannie buss immediately she continues to protect these losers in the front office from the mom and pop days
