Dude, we could definitely be in the finals with LMA…Im just saying that he could be in the finals with SA AND have the added benefit of living...
This is what Rockets fans should be more concerned with…someone that we have a higher chance to get….in a position of HUGE need. Dragic Harden...
What good does it do to live a few hours away in Houston during the NBA season? It's not like he could just go and see his kid when there are...
Half the people in this thread think it's either Houston or SA. And I disagree with that. I think we have a chance, certainly, but it's a long...
Of course Houston is a good place…[hypothetical] but if I lived in Miami, had a kid in Atlanta, and had another home Orlando…I'd be considering...
No **** it's not 100% guaranteed…nothing is. And like you said, yes, they could be contending in 2 years. If LMA only cared about winning, he'd...
They haven't had a big name free agent because Kobe's contract is ridiculous. He'll be off the team in 2016 and the team will be able to get big...
He lives in LA...what's better than actually playing for the city that you live in? Half of the NBA season, he gets to sleep in his own house,...
What do you mean? They have max money for LMA. Then, in 2016, 25 million comes off the books bc of Kobe...and the lakers, with the increase in...
??? How is LMA + two max players, the same as his current situation?
Kobe won't be running things in 2016.

Reread...I said West. They have 5 million bucks currently on the books for 2016...they will be able to add two top flight free agents in 2016...
Not sure why there is a perception that LMA doesn't care about winning if he chooses LA. The Lakers will be a top 5 team in the west in 2...
That's not how you should calculate...you include FT into the mix...otherwise, most players would be getting less than a point per attempt....
I agree from a total basketball perspective....but these players aren't robots. LMA has a child in SA and currently lives in LA. He's much more...
With Kobe coming off the books and the increased cap money, theyll be able to add two significant players on top of LMA....and all free agents...
Getting nothing and 100% cap flexibility for next year is better than taking on players that do nothing. Plus, why would they cater to LMA? He...
LA has a huge shot, IMO. He lives there....they'd only be bad for one more year, then they'll be right back among the best..and its the...
Because you can't just get rid of players whenever you want to free up cap space. It doesn't work like that. Otherwise, every team would do that...
