SBLIII Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Lakers did the right thing. Lebron is 35 next season. Dubs might be back a year later. Might be a 1 year title window type of thing for the Lakeshow. So right move and they should be the favorite to make the NBA Finals unless Lebron breaks down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
champ11 Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 This isn’t the Nets trade. I think the Melo trade is a better comp. Lakers getting a better player and giving up more value but it’s not catastrophic. Necessary deal for the Lakers and well done by the Pels to get those picks. Lakers don’t have space for a max. They used their cap space terribly last year so let’s see if they aren’t completely incompetent this time around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-ALL-DAY Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 So looks like the trade will go down on July 6th and AD won't waive his trade kicker. That means Lakers will be at 23.7M in cap space and not enough for a max. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except we traded the #1 pick to get Tatum. That’s absolutely stupid logic but whatever floats your boat dude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was lol funny watching him sign the shmucks he did last year to play with Lebron. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone thought Dwight and Kobe would win multiple rings too though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe sign Brogdon to an offer sheet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You call them schmucks(and i agree*) but Rondo cost 9 million a year last season. I believe Lance cost 5-6/year.

Danny Green is an option for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
