re: The 2021 “protection” is better than what we thought

LeBron will be a FA in 2022. HS players will likely be eligible in 2022 creating a double draft. That's a huge haul in itself.

Bradley
Kawhi
Tobias Harris
Faried
Mirotic
Reggie Jackson
Butler
Fournier
Giannis
Schroeder
Gobert

What's wild is idk if they even should max out anyone outside of like Kawhi.
They only have 32 million in cap room to sign guys. They sign their max player and 5-15 on their roster are guys on minimums. They'll have the MLE too but in reality, the Lakers from here until the foreseeable future are gonna be stacked 1-3/4 and a whole lot of shite after that.
There will be plenty of teams between toronto, GS, Philly, Boston, Houston competing for those ring chasers who will take minimum salaries but can still play. Not like in years past where there were really only 1-3 teams that were attractive to those types of players.

Which is exactly why I see this as such a huge risk for them.
LeBron is aging and just missed 30 games with a torn groin. And showed up plastered during some of those 30 games while he was injured.
AD has the constitution of a bubble boy.
Depending on who their third major star is, they may have another potential injury case on their hands or possibly a player whose game either fits poorly with AD and LeBron or will greatly atrophy by the time their contract is up.
They have a lot of potential to win a ring this season because the stars are aligning for someone to do so. After a few years of LeBron aging and a shite supporting cast? They’ll end up being pretty bad IMHO.

You got that backwards Bunch. A protected pick benefits the team trading the pick away.
If the pick is top 8, it's protected and LA keeps the pick (and then we get their first the next year instead regardless where it is).
If it's outside of the top 8, then we get it.
But LA will likely at least make the playoffs, so we'll get something outside the top 14.

You’re not correct. They did reverse protection according to the latest reports. GMs can put whatever protection they want.
Stick to football my dude.

They won’t have the full MLE since they’ll be using space to get FAs.

I've never seen reverse protection. You got a link to that?
Posted on 6/16/19 at 1:04 am to Fun Bunch
Wow. Here I was bummed that it was top 8 protected.
Posted on 6/16/19 at 1:06 am to bonethug0180
Look up some old Houston trades and you will see at least one or two like that.
IIRC, Houston got some reverse-protection picks from the Raptors in the 2000s at some point before they swung the trade to get Harden, as Morey was looking to get lottery picks. They had some kind of weird protection to where they only conveyed on pick numbers 4-15, to where it was a lottery pick but not a lottery winner.

Andrew Lopez and a bunch of other media types have posted it on twitter.
GMs can agree to any protection they want virtually. Dell Demps once put on protection that was like 11-17 and 25-30 or some weird shite.
There’s no limit beyond Stepien Rule and 7 year Billy King Rule.
What you posted is what is traditionally correct but Griffin was REALLY smart here. Like...genius.

The reverse protections on the 2021 pick mean it's most likely to convey in 2022. Unprotected. 2022 should have the best of both HS classes of 2021 (the last year of one-and-done) and 2022 (the first year HS grads can directly declare)

The Bird Writes
@thebirdwrites
The Pelicans have unprotected swap rights with the Lakers in 2023. The year LeBron James Jr. graduates high school and would potentially first be eligible to be drafted into the NBA. The Pelicans would STILL have unprotected rights to another Lakers first in 24 or 25.

Yeah I looked up some more protected picks and it happens but it's rare. Guess being that we weren't directly involved in one like this before I never noticed. Everytime I saw protected picks it was always the standard (or slightly weird like the skip a few picks one you posted but I think that's a if we are in the playoffs then x, if not then y).
Posted on 6/16/19 at 1:13 am to bonethug0180
You’re generally right and that’s what most assumed. Further reports corrected the record.

Plot twist...Pels draft Bronny Jr with a future lakers pick.
Posted on 6/16/19 at 1:14 am to Fun Bunch
I mean I doubt the Lakers miss the playoffs, so either way we were likely not going to get the 2021 pick.

George RR Martin couldn’t write it any better
Posted on 6/16/19 at 1:15 am to bonethug0180
2022 Bron will most likely be done. Griffin basically is betting on future Laker incompetence.
Posted on 6/16/19 at 1:16 am to Macintosh
Well, maybe. We might find out within 10 years or see someone adapt it first.
Posted on 6/16/19 at 1:16 am to Fun Bunch
Given the actions of the Lakers this past season, I think that is a good bet.
Magic alone isn’t responsible for all the dysfunction going on over there.
