Wouldn't surprise me, you couldn't hit that so off if you tried lol.

I wasn't gonna watch this one, but for whatever reason woke up naturally when the game was halfway through 3rd, so watched from there until the end. Raptors blowing that six point lead in the last 2-3 minutes must sting.

Also, KD torn his achilles, yikes.

Think it's gonna happen this week. Can see Pelicans getting a great haul considering the circumstances.

I'm willing to give up everything to keep Lonzo, but looks hard.

Woj did a story the other day that we're looking for a three team trade to get involved to increase assets.

Honestly wouldn't surprise me with the rumors of Lonzo not wanting to sign long term.

Also said Griffin wants an all star player, a potential all star player and two first round picks but this is on a sliding scale.

For example if the all star player is on the lower end he'll want better picks but on the higher end he's willing to accept less draft capital.

Remains to be see if we get them though, i personally think getting an all star player is probably unlikely.

The All Star player seems very unlikely unless it's a D'Angelo Russell level player. And you'd probably rather want a first this year than him, because he's just not worth a max contract.

I'm just happy Pelinka has not leaked legit stuff. Seems like the whole trade has been handled much more competently from both sides right now.

I'm gonna miss Ingram if it goes through though. That guy is going to be an all star more than 5 times in the west imo.

He 100% did.

Only makes it a more idiotic play tbh.

Hope they take the next game. Would be an incredible story for Toronto to win.

Give credit where credit's due, the way that play ended up is all down to our defensive play

It was not all defense.

Toronto were hesitant and afraid because there was a foul to give.

GSW should get credit for not fouling since it confused Raps and they got a shit shot.

The right move would’ve been to attack the basket early and go for the lead with time left. Either take the foul or get 2 points.

^^ I see nothing but great defensive play and game awareness from us from what you just mentioned

What does KD's injury mean to his free agency?

He'll get a max anyways. Means some teams won't offer. Mainly Lakers. All other teams wanting him will still want him on a max I think.

Celtics are officially out of the AD sweepstakes according to Woj.

Well, well, well. Not exactly a surprise for me.

This story on Rich Paul is amazing for a lot of reasons, but his account of how the Anthony Davis trade demand became public is something I think most Lakers (and NBA) fans will want to hear

Dell Demps sounds like an absolute melt

Rich Paul is really out here doing into interview with SI just to get Danny Ainge to leave them alone.

Transparent as hell he's working in the interests of Lebron and not Davis.

Celtics and Lakers are engaged in trade talks with New Orleans on All-NBA star Anthony Davis, league sources tell me, @ZachLowe_NBA, @ramonashelburne and @WindhorstESPN. Lakers No. 4 pick has been discussed as trade chip to help Pels acquire high-level player in multi-team deals.

ALL THE ASSETS

The bottom part is important, the draft is meh outside the top 3 but if we can use the top 4 pick to get a better player then that's great.

I'd take Culver and Garland over Barrett all day every day.

Also has been reported now that Davis has instructed Rich Paul to do everything he's done. All those idiots thinking LeBron and Rich doing this without Davis specifically wanting it. Gtfo.

We probably wouldn't want Barrett either though

Same probably applies to everyone not called Ja Morant, i suspect we'd want that pick to be used to get an asset we want.

I don't know about the team wanting Barrett. I assume he and Zion is close. I'd hate for them to end up together as Barrett is the dumbest player I've ever seen. You can't teach that kind of idiocy.

My guess is a Lakers-Pelicans-Wizards trade where you get Hart, Kuzma and Beal + 2 1st rounders, and Wizards might get Ingram/Lonzo and the 4th.

Wizards will take Kuzma because they are dumb and we'll have Ingram IMO.

Great Leader Sprucenuce wrote:Wizards will take Kuzma because they are dumb and we'll have Ingram IMO.

There's probably some idiot out there who likes Kuzma better. Those Gm surveys suggested so. He even got a National Team trial.

It's beyond me what people see in him to warrant that attention.

Apparently we want to hold onto Kuzma because Pelicans want him, but we don't want to trade him.

I might legit hang myself if Kuzma is the reason we don't get AD.

I haven't heard anything on our end about that tbh.

So far Stein is reporting you'll get Lonzo and Ingram and whichever player you want from another team in a deal for the 4th pick.
