Exclusive The official Lamarcus Aldridge free agency thread

[ripcityboy]

So now that LMA is gone. Is this Ben Simmons kid any good?

 

[santeesioux]

Laker fans legitimately thought they were getting LMA, their outrage is hilarious.

 

[blue9]

Liked for the unintentional typo

Who said it was unintentional?

[Natebishop3]

It's time to pull out the big guns..... where is Rebecca Haarlow?

 

[TBpup]

Oh man, these twats about the LAL are great!!!

Absolutely loving it! Those clowns with the Aldridge jerseys, their 'LA to LA' campaign and all the "A new era is beginning" tweets. A new era of top-3 lottery picks?

 

[PDXFonz]

Every time my phone vibrates with a Twitter alert "This is it, this is the one"

 

[3RA1N1AC]

Fucking hell

 

[BBert]

But Kobe has such a warm and open personality. Just ask any of his past teammates.

[ripcityboy]

Having LMA turn LA down is as close to a pleasure I feel of him actually signing with us.

 

[TBpup]

Could it be?

 

[BBert]

Laker fans legitimately thought they were getting LMA, their outrage is hilarious.

Their tears, born of delusion and entitlement, are the sweetest.

 

[illmatic99]

No we don't. Not without trading Kaman.

 

[KeepOnRollin]

 

[PDXFonz]

Could it be?

Make it so!

 

[santeesioux]

Oh shit, I'm starting to get my hopes up. If we get a Monroe signing today he might know something...

 

[BBert]

Could it be?

Yes. We. Can!

 

[illmatic99]

Oh shit, I'm starting to get my hopes up. If we get a Monroe signing today he might know something...

If we get Monroe and Aldridge, Monroe will have to be a S&T

 

[santeesioux]

If we get Monroe and Aldridge, Monroe will have to be a S&T

Even if we renounce Wes and Rolo?

 

[magnifier661]

If we get Monroe and Aldridge, Monroe will have to be a S&T

We can easily shed 1 mil in cap to grab Monroe

 

[Boise Blazer]

OMG this is golden

 

[illmatic99]

Even if we renounce Wes and Rolo?

Most likely, unless I'm messing up my numbers. The Aminu signing ate into our capspace. We're about 4 mil short, which fits Kaman perfectly.

 

[BBert]

Monroe is signing with the Blazers.

Then it's between us and the Spurs.

Common LaMarcus, don't be a fool. This team Olshey is building around you is your best bet for success, legacy, and $$.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

OMG this is golden

LA was probably like...

 

[santeesioux]

Most likely, unless I'm messing up my numbers. The Aminu signing ate into our capspace. We're about 4 mil short, which fits Kaman perfectly.

If Kaman gets traded soon...

 

[BBert]

OMG this is golden

I just don't know why that didn't seal the deal?

 

[noknobs]

Looks like Quick has been talking to Mags again.

 

[Boise Blazer]

They need to move ~4-5 million in salary.

Which they picked up when they picked up Kaman's option.

This tells me they already have a trade lined up for Kaman should LMA+Monroe commit.
