Also, what about a vet like Vince Carter? I know we wanted him last year, but SAC got him before we could close it up. Do you think he'd end his career here and mentor our young guys? 

Wouldn't hate it if it's the same capacity as he has in Sacramento

Lavar has to be going bananas right now. I think Ball gets traded in the next 24 hours

No, he has 2 years left and he has the same contract as Bismack and why would Magic do the Lakers any favors, Magic should be hating the Lakers

Setting up the Lakers to build a superteam is our friend?

Warriors are the enemy, they must be dethroned and the rightful king must be crowned

Oh no way. Call it my bias from living in the Bay Area my whole life, but I'd rather the Warriors win the next 5 in a row than see the Lakers and LeBron pull out even 1 more.

The Warriors aren't an enemy.

We would be getting something that benefits us, hopefully. It's not like we're just giving away pieces for no reason plus we won't be contending with said "super team" for quite a while.

Right now, whichever team is 8th in the East is our enemy. One step at a time lol

1) Become a respectable franchise with a core nucleus to build around

2) Get into the playoffs

3) Win the East

4) Win the Finals

 

Can't move on to the next one till we're finished with the first.

I also realize you were talking about the Lakers and not the Magic haha

Yeah, give me a Warriors dynasty decade before Lakers start winning again
