Seems like a no brainer for the Lakers.

I think you're right. Lebron, Davis, and Ingram could compete especially if the Warriors lose some pieces next year. But will they be able to pay Ingram in a couple years with Lebron and Davis already making max money.

If I'm New Orleans, I'm doing everything I can to not send him to LA.

There is only 1 guy untouchable, for me, for the Lakers. And that is Kuz.

For me it would be LeBron.

Kuzma isn’t winning a title for you. Ship him and anyone else for Davis.

Agreed. I think you're going to have a hard time winning a ship with Kuz as your 2nd best player.

Right. If you can somehow get AD without giving him up, that’s obviously preferred. But I wouldn't hold on to him and miss out on AD. Especially if NO isn’t asking for Ingram? After next summer he might be the 4th best player on the Lakers. That is scary, even if only for a year before he gets his second contract somewhere.

I'm not a big Ingram fan, I'd easily give him up over Kuzma.

So Boston can’t even trade for AD until after the season is over. I wonder if that will factor into anything.

Why is that? Contracts I assume?

July 1, Kyrie will opt out. That’s when they could trade for AD.

So would anyone. But New Orleans could probably get both. If they only take Kuzma, that’s a win. They aren’t gonna be able to make a deal that doesn’t include him.

Eh who knows.

  • Cavs traded Kyrie for Jordan Clarkson and Collin fucking Sexton.
  • Pacers traded PG for Victor Olidipo and some scraps.
  • SAS traded Kawhi for DeMar DeRosan
  • Kings traded Cousins for 38 yr Buddy Heild.

Stars don't get shit on the trade market.

lol what a POS, hope this means the refs are finally starting to get wise to his BS.

Harden being a fuckboi

15 sec left in the game and he runs out of bounds expecting a call.

So the Pels had a new team intro video thing tonight. Not a single image of AD. I understand making one for the future, but why air it now?
