+Malcolm Howard Byron's been fired and is now replaced by Luke Walton. Jim Buss says that if the Lakers don't make the WCF next season, he'll step down.
I mean we got luke walton so thats cool. since russ wont be a free agent till NEXT free agency this is my hope. (it's a long shot but considering the location, media exposure, and the ammount of money the lakers have to spend it's still possible) Pg- D'angelo Russel SG-Demar Derozan Sf- Kevin Durant PF-Julius Randle C-Hassan Whiteside then we'd have players like jordan clarkson, ingram/simmons lou williams and larry nance jr coming off the bench. sound prettttty good to me.
adriell ramos we have enough money for at least 2 max contracts, you don't think if we sign KD and one of the other 2 that we can convince the 3rd to take a pay cut. or sign kd and the other 2 take a pay cut? not a huge one just enough to make it fit. Crazier things have hapened i.e miami heat big 3. Think about it none of these players have won a ring and they're probably really hungry to win. ESPECIALLY kd and derozan. I'm telling you underestimating the lakers when it comes to making the salary cap situation work is a grave mistake. the trick is convincing them to come to LA.
Shaq has actually second this rumor recently as well. This would be a dream come true. KD, Russ & Ingram? It would be them and the GSW in WCF for at least a couple seasons.
+AFunkyDiabetic nah scratch that bs. That's unrealistic and there is no rumor/ chance of Kd going to Oakland. They don't even have enough $ to sign Kd, But there are rumors of him joining Boston, so why don't you make a video of that
hey funky love your vids man keep up the good work, do you think brad stevens was a better choice for the eastern conference coach spot than tyron lue and what do you think about potential melo trade to cleveland, personaly i think that aint gonna happen but i would like to see it
Durant would make a perfect mentor for Ingram to develop from, on and off the floor. But it's just a dream I think. There's the the loyalty factor for KD and RW in OKC and what they have going on already. But we never know... things happen and the Laker organization is capable of making the right offers when given the right opportunity. It's also said that Ingram is versatile and can play different positions on the floor. Not locked in only as SF.
so these guys plus luke Walton and either Brandon ingrams or Ben Simmons and D'angelo and a few promising role players, lakers could be title contenders .again
The lakers should go for Hasaan whiteside. Select Brandon Inggram . With the starting line up looking like this. D'angello Russel,Jordan Clarckson,Ingram,Randle,Whiteside. It looks like a proper team. With shooters on the wing (Russel,Ingram) The team would look like the 08-09 Orlando magic which by the way went to the Nba finals. The only problem with whiteside is rebounding. Well thats why we selected Randle he is a beast in the boards. Now the lakers should keep . Huertas,bass,lou Will,tarik Black,Nance jr ,young,brown. Fire Bryon scott. Sign maybe tom thibadoue correct me if my spelling is wrong. Overall the lakers look good. If you can sign maybe a ryan anderson it would be better but i doubt he will come in LA .
IF KD and Russell goes to even shitty team like 76ers, that team will easily be playoff contender and if things starts clicking among the team members then might even go further in the playoff rounds. Their combination are that good. 2 of the top 5 players in the league as we speak.
there were talks of a, D angelo Russell for DeMarcus Cousins trade before KD signed with the warriors, now we see why, Russell Westbrook will probably end up a laker
Yea.. Keep putting together pieces.. The lakers will surely get one or the other. Or some kinda big free agent. Just got to make sure they are ready to roll when Westbrook hits town
Where is the video material where Stephen A. said that? I doubt Stephen A would ever bring westbrook in any scenario to the Lakers. Where they have young guys at PG. Durant is also in a different timeline compared to the rest of the Lakers. Right now Lakers just need to get some experience on their young guys. Durant will either resign to OKC or go to the Wizards or something like that to join Wall
Thanks for the dream but Laker fans that are realistic thinking... top 3 pick maybe Ben Simmons best case and Kobe contract off the books they can sign KD or Westbrook or a young relevant allstar. Getting KD and Westbrook would be sick but makes a lot of sense both would want to stick together if KD leaves.
Great video but the Lakers wouldn't get Brandon Ingram if they have KD like honestly that's like saying we have a Michael Jordan but let's get Kobe too when if we're looking at the 96 draft you could have Steve Nash which think about it Steve Nash with the 95-96 "bulls yeah kobe is well, Kobe but the team is better with Steve so I think they would get buddy hield he's a knock down shooter they would have a better team I mean Westbrook buddy KD randle and Roy That would be a dominant team but that's just my opinion but great video though.
As a lakers fan I don't want russ to come to la. Just kd coming will be much better. 1) d'angelo Russell and Jordan Clarkson will be better if russ isn't in the team 2) I don't think russ is a true point guard, I think putting dangelo and Clarkson around kd will be better than having Westbrook 3) we will need to pay for dangelo clarkson and randle once their rookie contracts are up so having Westbrook AND kd wouldn't work, and I rather have dangelo and Clarkson over westbrook
Stephen A makes so many wild claims it's the same as throwing mud. Throw enough and statistically it will stick every once in a while. Personally I think Stephen A makes some very good points, but it's overshadowed by the fact that when it comes to other peoples opinions he's boorish, rude and egocentric....not to mention it's been proven (as illustrated by the Kevin Durant controversy) that he's more than willing to straight up LIE and make shit up just to make it look like he's right
+Dravish Darkstar He is the one that predicted Lebron going to miami before anyone could even guess. He also said that doc was going to the clippers. So they aren't that crazy and I could see westbrook going to LA.
emotionless? i think westbrook shows alot of emotion. on and off the court
+TheUnpluggedWop you right. Words just happen when im doing a commentary
+AFunkyDiabetic gotcha brudda
Emotion leads to execution
+Scizor For Hire or it leads to psyching yourself out of the game
Same for kd
Halfway there now
As a Celtics fan I don't likee rumors that involve superstars and the Lakers
+The Dictator just shoot them with one of your pointy head missiles
+Brandon Mundt it's a joke from the movie the Dictator look at the original post
+Pranavdeep Singh LOLOL. What's your favorite car. The 9/11?
I hope horford goes somewhere else😊
I wouldn't be worried honestly there's a better chance that Lebron will join the Canadian football league to play middle linebacker
i mean, Stephen A got the Doc to the Clips rumor right so, idk?
My twitter - twitter.com/FunkyDiabetic1
+Deo Pickabear ??? It's 2k
I bet you're fun at parties

Who else is watching this after kd joined gs
Someone show this to KD and Russ IMMEDIATELY!!!!
if durant comes to lakers after kobe retires ill fucking cry thatll be so fucking aweome and great for the lakers!
+Sam S Westbrook might join The Lakers or Clippers, Durant might join The Wizards or Spurs.
+stainshield might be us?
ya its my dream
Sorry
uh yeah bro
oh man was this wrong and right at the same time
Woulda loved this hell of a lot more den what happened in real life
i love the what if vids you should try another!
Man I love this series
I love the way you show clips of 2k about the stuff your talking about. How long does it usually take to edit?
+RayZe Gamez depends on the video. I'd say this took 3 hours minimum
Wow that's pretty long, makes me appreciate this hard work
With their draft pick and KD and Westbrook to boot..... Lakers would make a 180 to a top team quick. That'd be crazy!
At 5:37 kristaps is celebrating
This series is a really good and fire idea
I doubt both will go to LA i say westbrook is more likely cuz hes from LA but as a lakers fan im ecstatic they are both reportedly interested in LA
As a Lakers fan this would be great , but I can't see this happening especially if we don't make changes in the front office or get a new coach
+Malcolm Howard rumor is that jim/scott are done after this season. I hope that is the case. so sick of jim.
+Jason Fleshman 🙏
+Malcolm Howard Byron's been fired and is now replaced by Luke Walton. Jim Buss says that if the Lakers don't make the WCF next season, he'll step down.
we r getting luke walton bro we r good.
we r get luke walton we r good bro
you and mike both make the best what if videos
+Little Saint no, just no
durant fits to La not to Gs
Hey, I like ur vids. I'm gonna tell people to watch em.
KD needs a PG like D'Angelo.
+Lincoln Clay He has a PG that's better than D'Angelo lmao.
MrYeetXI No shit? Ohhh I didn't know that, okayyy.
I mean we got luke walton so thats cool. since russ wont be a free agent till NEXT free agency this is my hope. (it's a long shot but considering the location, media exposure, and the ammount of money the lakers have to spend it's still possible) Pg- D'angelo Russel SG-Demar Derozan Sf- Kevin Durant PF-Julius Randle C-Hassan Whiteside then we'd have players like jordan clarkson, ingram/simmons lou williams and larry nance jr coming off the bench. sound prettttty good to me.

I'm telling you underestimating the lakers when it comes to making the salary cap situation work is a grave mistake. the trick is convincing them to come to LA.
What if they sign with the Lakers now?
This was one of the most interesting what ifs I've seen
Shaq has actually second this rumor recently as well. This would be a dream come true. KD, Russ & Ingram? It would be them and the GSW in WCF for at least a couple seasons.
KD should come to clippers 🙌
Bro keep doing these. They're great videos. Can you also do the rumor about Durant joining the warriors?
+Allen Ardelean i'll probably give it a whirl. Thanks :)
+AFunkyDiabetic nah scratch that bs. That's unrealistic and there is no rumor/ chance of Kd going to Oakland. They don't even have enough $ to sign Kd, But there are rumors of him joining Boston, so why don't you make a video of that
lol he just signed with them
hey funky love your vids man keep up the good work, do you think brad stevens was a better choice for the eastern conference coach spot than tyron lue and what do you think about potential melo trade to cleveland, personaly i think that aint gonna happen but i would like to see it

It's also said that Ingram is versatile and can play different positions on the floor. Not locked in only as SF.
I think the Lakers may draft Ingram..
I wish this scenario was true... At least one of them, but KD chose the easy way.
Kevin Durant + Russell Westbrook + Ben Simmons= Championship
But doesn't Philadelphia have the lakers 2016 pick?
+Charlie Rogers if its top 3 lakers keep it
+AFunkyDiabetic oh ok thanks for the reply i had no idea
+Charlie Rogers Top-3 protected 44% 76ers 66% Lakers and by sucking 76ers lowering Laker odds by 10% or more.
+Edward Brito but the 76ers sucks and no one wants to play for them. Bye Okafor
+Edward Brito nope 55% chance they keep it
4:57 according to 2k, D'Angelo is "extremely loyal." I wonder what nick young thinks about that.
KD would win a ring if he signed with the Clippers
Facts, it rank him higher in the all time great list.
How in the hell did you get them to not resign with OKC
U can decrease there loyalty that's how u get them to free agency from 100-0
+Kyle Loom oh alright thank you I've been trying over and over but they kept resigning 😂😂😂
+Kyle Loom how do u decrease there loyalty
+Kyle Loom how can you decrease their loyalty
+MJT24 You have to do it MyLeague... Go to edit player then vitals then loyalty is near the bottom and you can decrease it
this is nice.. used 2k to simulate what the team can do is really good, but what if there is some injuries? the outcome will surely change riht
Westbrook is the opposite of emotionless, full of heart.
What if KD went to the Miami Heat
Another better option after the lakers.
talk about the rumors of the trade sending Melo to the cavs, k-love to the Celtics, and picks to the knicks
@4:15 LMAO HELLA FUNNY!! HAHAH
lol right
I literally laughed out loud at the idea of Byron Scott winning Coach of the Year. Only in 2k.
He has won coach of the year before. Lol
Ken Agarin Lol I know but I'm talking about coach of the year as the Lakers coach.
Kd signing with the Knicks
Why would he do that they already have Carmelo
Him and Derek Fisher are friends and they just fired him
+Daniel Ruiz he just said he gon sign with any team as long as they aint the knicks lmaooo
+Tyler Ross let see you do better
Why would he wanna play with Melo? They play the same position and either of them want to come off the bench
Usually for me the players start complaining about not enough Playinh time or not starting and there play goes down how could u get rid of this
play myLeague instead of MyGM
Do a video about What if Jeremy Lin stayed with the knicks
as a laker fan I like this rumor ;)
As a Laker fan, yes please.
do one on what would happen if James harden hadn't left the thunder.
That will be crazy if they signed both of them.
well at least there's no David stern to stop this like the cris Paul trade.
Where is Kawhi going lol 0.57
so these guys plus luke Walton and either Brandon ingrams or Ben Simmons and D'angelo and a few promising role players, lakers could be title contenders .again
The lakers should go for Hasaan whiteside. Select Brandon Inggram . With the starting line up looking like this. D'angello Russel,Jordan Clarckson,Ingram,Randle,Whiteside.

The only problem with whiteside is rebounding. Well thats why we selected Randle he is a beast in the boards. Now the lakers should keep . Huertas,bass,lou Will,tarik Black,Nance jr ,young,brown. Fire Bryon scott. Sign maybe tom thibadoue correct me if my spelling is wrong. Overall the lakers look good. If you can sign maybe a ryan anderson it would be better but i doubt he will come in LA .
Damn, fear the dear. The Bucks are always slaying super teams.
theyre doing it again
Whoaaaa Knicks in the Finals 😂😂😂😂
Make a What if KD & Mike Conley joins the Spurs
emotionless and heartless? down arrow
Westbrook
Clarkson
Durant
Randle
Whiteside
Whoa.
dude u forgot about swagy p
Come to miami KD!
IF KD and Russell goes to even shitty team like 76ers, that team will easily be playoff contender and if things starts clicking among the team members then might even go further in the playoff rounds. Their combination are that good. 2 of the top 5 players in the league as we speak.
Much better seeing kd going to the lakers than the warriors
I am a Laker for life but Westbrook comes to LA with KD I guess I won't be pulling for the purple and gold until Westbrook retires or gets rid of him
Bold prediction, but makes sense
It is possible
I would like to see it as a Lakers fan. Hibbert, Randle, KD, Westbrook, and Clarkson or Russell as the starting 5. But its unlikely they join.
hibbert would ne gone
+fordjw111 Hibbert would be terrible to keep, Whiteside as a free agent would be an epic pickup to add defense to a monstrous offensive team imo
First!!!! Love the video!
we would just become the thunder then
Durant's staying or going to the wizards
What a laker fan
best pg maybe KI
there were talks of a, D angelo Russell for DeMarcus Cousins trade before KD signed with the warriors, now we see why, Russell Westbrook will probably end up a laker
Yea.. Keep putting together pieces.. The lakers will surely get one or the other. Or some kinda big free agent. Just got to make sure they are ready to roll when Westbrook hits town
What ever they do. Don't trade Wiggins for love! ::))
Where is the video material where Stephen A. said that?
I doubt Stephen A would ever bring westbrook in any scenario to the Lakers. Where they have young guys at PG. Durant is also in a different timeline compared to the rest of the Lakers. Right now Lakers just need to get some experience on their young guys.
Durant will either resign to OKC or go to the Wizards or something like that to join Wall
But remember Kobe is retiring this season and he is the key player for the Lakers so if that does happened lets see how good they really go
As a laker fan I’ll take KD but okc can keep Westbrook. We don’t want a ball dominant PG.
KD's Top 5 Destinations
1.Raptors
2.Wizards
3.Celtics
4.Lakers
5.Heat
What about the Warriors he said himself we wants to go there especially if they win another ring
He never said that, I don't see him going to the Warriors anyway.
Trailblazers, Celtics, and Jazz are his best fits
Personal what if destination for kd is (2016):
1. Lakes
2. Clippers
3. Heats
4. Knicks
5. Wizards.
It would be the same as OKC only with worse bench players
Thanks for the dream but Laker fans that are realistic thinking... top 3 pick maybe Ben Simmons best case and Kobe contract off the books they can sign KD or Westbrook or a young relevant allstar. Getting KD and Westbrook would be sick but makes a lot of sense both would want to stick together if KD leaves.
This may be true but i wanted views
hey funk
Lol what a pipe dream
+Little Saint Dude, it won't happen.
im a okc fan but i think durant only going to leave if okc doenst make the western conference finals
Durant is the next Michael Jordan.
Durant is the next T-Mac
+TheRealMVP Yeah, I guess Durant is the current Durant
+cristianjordan2003 5
Durant is a coward
They should both stay at okc
Shit just isn't the same without Kobe.....
I hope we get Kevin Durant & Russell Westbrook next season 2016-17 👍🏀☝Laker nation
their contracts don't end until the 2018-2019 season
Well, Russ is a Lakers fan....
NBA Basket Ball...Yeahhhh.
#PlayoffsYear2016
the knicks?
This is a pretty Funky video
Julius Randle got traded to Chicago just now.
Chris paul, kyire ivern, damian lillrad are all runner ups behind steph
like if they aren't winning in okc then their not gonna win in la
Do what if kd and russ reunited with James harden
this won't happen commissioner silver won't allow it
Great video but the Lakers wouldn't get Brandon Ingram if they have KD like honestly that's like saying we have a Michael Jordan but let's get Kobe too when if we're looking at the 96 draft you could have Steve Nash which think about it Steve Nash with the 95-96 "bulls yeah kobe is well, Kobe but the team is better with Steve so I think they would get buddy hield he's a knock down shooter they would have a better team I mean Westbrook buddy KD randle and Roy That would be a dominant team but that's just my opinion but great video though.
As a lakers fan I don't want russ to come to la. Just kd coming will be much better. 1) d'angelo Russell and Jordan Clarkson will be better if russ isn't in the team 2) I don't think russ is a true point guard, I think putting dangelo and Clarkson around kd will be better than having Westbrook 3) we will need to pay for dangelo clarkson and randle once their rookie contracts are up so having Westbrook AND kd wouldn't work, and I rather have dangelo and Clarkson over westbrook
D Russ isn't good anyways
Westbrook is averaging 10 assists what the fuck are you talking about he isn't a true point guard
+Jake Hilburn I know right he averages 24 pts 10 asts 7 Rebs and 2 stls he could score more like curry but he likes to do it all
that would still be worse then the okc now
thank god Byron Scott is out of LA
Stephen A makes so many wild claims it's the same as throwing mud. Throw enough and statistically it will stick every once in a while.
