2027 NBA Season

Oh my, Austin Reaves is gonna get traded. What a mistake is doing by the Lakers management. Are they sure that this is going to happen and trade him for Robinson?

Other sources tell these numbers: 5.1 points per game for Robinson and then 20.5 points per game for Austin for the past season. It's still close to that source you've put and a comparison like this, the heck Lakers is doing.

The stats and numbers don't lie and why they're doing this. Crazy move that we're not expecting to happen.

So they are adding defenders? who is gonna fill the void reeves will be leaving? they add Ayton then now Robinsons, i have no question getting Robinsons for the trade, but who are added to the package better be worth it, I don't know how Rob make some silly trades sometimes, but lets see how things work, Mitchelle is a defender and a great help for the knicks, lets see how his patience is when reporters are banging since LA got lots of issue sometimes.

I am not sure with that because I thought that they're already able to make their roster better and they're just going to add some helpful players.

But, they're not going to put out any more of their key players like Austin Reaves. So, I've tried to do a quick research and I don't see Robinsons name in there, it's with Markkanen and some other players involved on that trade proposal.

Anyway, it has given me a relief and I almost believed on that news.

Something that may gained a good help if ever Markkanen is the one that they are targeting to acquire not just a big man but also can help then offensively, though not sure if jazz will allow this trade, if I remember it correctly they still have the rights for Markkanen maybe if Lakers will offer something favorable they might agree, but lets wait and see if what fate will bring to Lakers if there's a possibility that trade may happen.

Rumor of the day...  LeBron James' agent has been talking with Jokic's agent about a possible team up next year.  The rumor is that both players will take significantly less money to team up on a team with an already great roster.  This would be LeBron's final season, and he wants to win a championship on his farewell tour.  While this seems a little bit unlikely, it is possible.  Jokic doesn't seem to be a money first guy and LeBron already has enough...  I'm not sure where they would team up, but some possibilities include Golden State or even Cleveland.  We'll see...  A bit early to be speculating on next season, but it's out there.

Next year? so if this rumor tends to be true then Lebron won't be retiring after this upcoming season.

But to say that, it's a fact that they're not after the money anymore. They just want greatness and more chips for each of them.

Well, that will be a good roster for the final season of Lebron if ever that happens and everyone would like to cheer that they meet in Cavs.

The real question is even if that humorous scenario comes true, do you really think they can win championship? Knowing that LeBron is already old, I don't think he can still CURRY a team to a championship, even with Nikola Jokic alongside him. Maybe they might make it to the playoffs, but winning the championship I don't think so.

It reminds me of that Lakers team with Kobe, Steve Nash and Dwight Howard. That really looked unstoppable right? but see what happened? I don't even think they made it to the playoffs that time.

Even having the rights as long as the price is right, in this league then everything is possible.

He's one good prospect out there and I am sure if ever he want out of the Jazz, there will be takers of him as his stats are great and of course his size.

So, there is more come with these trade rumors and actual trades before the season starts.

We will never know.

Everyone has got their chance even some oldies, Lebron is still a good supporting player in that case even he's no longer the same during his prime.

We're all hype to see these rosters with big superstars and they're doing it just to try and also for the fans. So say it happens, whether we think that they will win or not, it's still a rumor as of now.

That's the rumor of like 2 or 3 days ago, haha. I don't see why Jokic would have interest in that to be honest. Even if they would win the media would make it Lebrons championship most likely. Also, Jokic doesn't care TOO much about winning the chip cause this would keep him away from his horses until June, hahaha.
Anyway, it's kind of ridiculous, it looks kind of desperate from LBJ to even try to get another super team yet again, chasing another title. His inflated ego will always be hungry for more validation.

extend up to the trade deadline, if Markkanen will request for that trade and Jazz will receive decent offer I also that team will show their interest in taking him, a big man who can be an additional threat both inside and outside of the ring, same with what you said his stats is pretty decent, I use to remember those rumors about GSW trying to acquire him but not sure what happen why it did not materialized.

The bad news for ex-NBA players continues. Today Gilbert Arenas was arrested for apparently running an illegal gambling business with members of an Israeli crime outfit of some sort. This is not going to be good for Gilbert I think. Such a shame to see how his career spiraled after the gun incident.

Man, I don't understand how NBA players, who earn millions while they're still active, need to get involved in illegal activities.
Is this some prime example of financial mismanagement? I mean Arenas was long retired, but he ain't Jordan, who owns a brand that will sustain his gambling needs.
I think young NBA players of today will need to see this, so they'll get prepared for the worst thing to happen when their career concludes.
What a shame, millions got wasted, and most importantly, throwing away a lavish life.

Yes, it's really hard to imagine Gil doing this kind of things, but we really don't know what it going behind the curtain. Maybe it's their mentality to keep that money flowing as they will need to sustain that lifestyle during this NBA games. I can't forget what is the name of another ex-player, but he said that he can't sustained paying his momma's bill and so he asked the court for a reduce money. And so with it, that is the recurring story of former NBA players who didn't save enough during their career and thought that everything will run forever. But when everything dries up, that's where they think of other ways to make money and that could be the case on Gil on running illegal gambling business.

LeBron may no longer be in the prime of his career, but I still think he's one of the core players on any team he plays for. At the very least, he can adapt his performance and start scoring heavily if the team needs it. The same goes for assists and rebounds.

I hope you verified it first before seconding this post by him. Did you find articles from verified sources already? Do you think that Rob Pelinka is that dumb enough to trade their 3rd option in scoring for some bench player that's also injury-prone? Logic, lol.

Share the link where they said that this trade happened, and look whether it's verified/trusted or not. This is fake news obviously, and the fact that the link that was shared was through Facebook only is also a proof that it's edited. Let's not forget that people nowadays can edit everything, and can just post it online. Don't fall for it.

Average-wise, he's still one of the best, but with that age, his body will cope up to him, and there will be time where his stamina will be at the lowest because of how old he is.

He can be still be helpful with any team that he will be joining no question for that, but I don't see him as a main guy for a team, and that's also why the Lakers already moved on from him and decided not to give him a contract extension after this year. I wonder if his stats last season will be the same this season still. I will not be surprised if Pelinka will trade Le-GM after the trade deadline mid-season. I mean if his performance is still good, teams might take the risk and take him.

Luka Doncic is preparing very well for the new season, and I think he will do everything he can to win the championship this year.
He seems to have lost weight.
If the Lakers make some good additions to their roster, they could be contenders for the championship this year.

Luka Doncic's program:

-Two workouts a day,
-16 hours of fasting,
-250 grams of protein a day,
-A gluten-free, low-sugar diet program.

I am glad he can do it, unlike that one guy from the Pelicans. Kidding.

I think this change is a sign that he will be pursuing that championship again, and with weight loss, he can move faster and probably jump higher now. Even Draymond Green has something to say about it.



This will be good for the Lakers. He can now become a point guard and use run-and-gun plays if he shapes up and moves faster. Now, my curiosity is the reaction of Nico Harrison. Will there be regrets?

Edit: OMG! We got the same news as @MK-74. Didn't see the post at the time of writing.

It’s manageable for Luka to this since he is not that fat and huge frame body. He is this same skinny when he is a rookie so this is expected once he is motivated especially that he was traded due to being fat already.

Unlike Zion, He is a natural huge frame which his body needs food in able to maintain that massive body. I think what he needs is a proper diet rather than eating unli burritos and burger. 

[Webetcoins]

Although there’s rumor before that AR will be traded but it doesn’t materialize probably due to no available prospect player to give up AR.

Regarding DK, I believe Lakers will have a hard time to trade him considering how inconsistent he was on his last games compared to the hype he show during his rookie.

Until now, I’m still wondering if Ayton is already enough for Lakers to boost their defense.

They had other players they were willing to part ways with, I am sure they will try to trade those away first. They didn't want players like Knecth and shake and vanderbilt. These three could be easily traded by them, but they are not making too much money so in exchange of these three, you can't even get one decent player, all three combined doesn't make salary enough to get someone decent.

The trouble is that at Lakers only 2 players make good money, and Rui makes just decent, all others are making pretty low salary, making it very difficult for trading. So for them, it's either free agency or nothing. Even Austin Reaves is making only 14 million, and in this economy, he is worth at least 20+ a year, check out all other players on his level.

Actually he's struggling to lose wait on Dallas and he face lots of criticism due to his body weight.

But I guess that trade happen to him creates huge determination to perform more better and fix those things that issue to him.

Now he's looking so good and provably that he can  run the floor on both ends. This is great attitude for a star and Lakers is really doing so well. Since its like they are ready to compete for a title run now that Luka is well prepared and looks fit for next season.

Only haters will say LBJ is not productive. His presence alone will boost his teammates morale since they will be confident that someone in their team is reliable.

He is still athletic and done a lot of solid play making even on his current age. I doubt he will useless on any team he will landed in the future.

He is still better than most of the NBA player on current generation.

I think they are blind if they say LBJ is not productive. Damn the man is performing like his body is not aging and still dominating on both ends on the floor.

I don't know why haters said that he's not productive anymore since aside the huge numbers he can provide on his team LBJ is still marketable that's why many fans still love to watch him. I doubt there's other player same with his age could do what he can provide.

Also I agree that he's still more far away better than those young dudes in the league. He cannot be called the king for nothing.

A new rumor that may actually be true (although I have my doubts as it would show the Phoenix Suns making a decent roster move)...  The Suns are supposedly working out a trade deal to acquire Karl-Anthony Towns for a package that involves Dillon Brooks, Grayson Allen, Nick Richards, a 2032 first-round pick and three second-round picks.  It gets rid of two of my least favorite players in the NBA (both dirty) in Brooks and Allen.  At the same time it lands one of the best offensive centers in the game, who I think will pair well with Booker.  Hopefully this happens.  Getting rid of Brooks and Allen might make the Suns watchable for me.

I haven't about that rumor before that the GSW wants to take him. But if the GSW has got a chance, they should have done that long time ago and if they've tried but didn't proceed, probably some offer that both parties can't take and can't agree with.

I hope you verified it first before seconding this post by him. Did you find articles from verified sources already? Do you think that Rob Pelinka is that dumb enough to trade their 3rd option in scoring for some bench player that's also injury-prone? Logic, lol.

Yeah, my mistake on that. I should have verified but we're on this thread that I believe that everyone who shares some news could just say that it's a rumor to avoid believing in a news.

Obviously my bad for believing on that but that's how it goes, many sources nowadays that making it look like a real thing. And as a fan, if we see something that's within our interest, we get carried away and share it to the community asap.

Best of luck on Jonathan Kuminga, it was reported that he declined the Warriors offer of  two-year, $45 million. It seems that he is really betting on himself as of right now. We all know that he wasn't given enough playing time by Kerr specially in the playoffs.

He was able to play only when Steph got injured, but they can't really go and move onto the next round. So let's see, there are teams that are willing to take Kuminga and make him a starter like the Kings.

That's definitely good news for the Lakers. Luka even said that his verticals have become even higher than the first time he entered the NBA.
I think what becomes his motivation is the disrespect the Dallas Mavericks gave him when he got traded to the Lakers.
I think he's now become even more serious in pursuing a championship for the Lakers, so the Mavs will realise what kind of player they let go.
I just hope that Ayton and Smart will become effective with the Lakers roster. If that is the case, the Lakers will become a serious finals contender next season.
