if not the most important offseason.

In recent memory, the decisions they make now could impact the franchise for the next seven, eight, maybe 10 years because of all the future picks and things like that that can be

In addition to giving us, those of us here in the United States, an opportunity to head into the weekend with some Lakers

talk. So glad we've got some people coming in from overseas. All right, let's talk first about

who we're going to talk about in just a second.
