Lakers GM, Mitch Kupchak "looking to hit home run"

[dnewguy]

We'll try to hit a home run. We always try to hit a home run.

With the new collective bargaining agreement, the days of big market teams hitting home runs are just about over. What could Kupchak be alluding too? I can't see a trade that will put them over OKC unless they somehow get JJ Barea for Matt Barnes. But not to piss anyone off I still believe the Lakers are better off with Gasol/Bynum and a team player like Andre Iguodola plus they can sign Steve Nash ....well, that means they will have to amnesty Kobe....that's the only home run I see here.

Your thoughts?

[ChongInc.]

Could, but won't.
Should, but shorn't.

[Dade County]

Not happening.... the League already F'ed them over.

Cp3 should be a Laker right now...smh

This is why the lakers are one of the greatest franchises. We only trade if we rape/hit a home run lol.

That separates us from the franchises like Knicks and some other who trade for the sake of trading.

[GREATNESS ONE]

Meh. All talk for now until we see some results, it's just all a bunch of hot air.

Is west still GM of the grizzlies.

The Lakers should be patient this summer. I know they want to move Gasol, but they really need to be patient, and try and get Sessions back on board next week.

My thoughts are that a Gasol trade is unlikely to produce a homerun. A double, at best. I hope he's talking about a Bynum blockbuster.

I dont mind if Mitch comes up with another highway robbery.

Let's say they stand pat what type of moves could they realistically make at the end of next season?
