I keep getting the vibe that they want to sign Kyrie and trade the farm for AD and fill out the roster with ring chasers

That's probably the dream plan.....like how they wanted to trade for CP3 and then for Dwight to make the Big 3

How Lakers Can Go from Laughingstock to NBA Finals in a Year (No, Really)

Lakers Receive: PF/C Anthony Davis

Pelicans Receive: SF Brandon Ingram, PF Kyle Kuzma, G/F Josh Jackson, G/F Mikal Bridges, 2019 first-round pick (Lakers)

Suns Receive: PG Lonzo Ball


The Suns would have to be smoking rocks to trade Bridges and Jackson for Zo. That would be an incredible haul for AD though

Good article though

fukk outta here Washedj, AD deal is dead fukk the Pels let them enjoy scraps from Boston. Kawhi is the only concern here...

Yeah this makes a ton of sense

So trade a proven champion with free throw shooting issues for an unproven commodity that can’t even shoot at all?

In all seriousness I wanna beam apples at these idiots heads. Why are they so dumb?

So the Kidd hire would be for Kyrie, not necessarily Zo

shyt I guess The guy with the AD trade is making sure we still have the max slot after. The trade we were gonna make during the deadline would've took away that max slot. But if we can get AD and still have room for Kyrie idk how he says no. He can reunite with Bron and then lead the Lakers with AD after Bron retires or leaves.

Kyrie is my guy, he Kobe’s first son, but that shyt is a terrible idea imo. AD a hoe as far as I’m concerned, LeBron need a real kills next to him and as great as Kyrie is he also tends to be injure prone and he’s also been an issue at both stops. The CP3/Kobe/Dwight shyt would’ve worked because you had the right mix of experience, playmaking, defensive presence, etc. Who’s the serious one in the AD/Kyrie/Bron mix?

As bad as shyt had been here, as much as people complained about LeBron’s antics, these dummies in El Segundo think it’s bright to trade away what depth/continuity we might have for AD and replace it with ring chasers? I mean Kyrie couldn’t even meet expectations in Boston but we want him in LA? Nah, let the Knicks make that move.

I think its about a fit. You would be getting an upgraded Harden + CP3. Kyrie and Bron fit well together. What respect they had for each other had to have only increased over the last year. You might get humbled Bron and mature Kyrie. They would devastate the league for the 2 years theyre together.

Yeah I rather get Kawhi and pair him with Zo/BI defensively and have Bron run the 1B role with him.

That’s a big ass barring breh. Kyrie always been injure prone and LeBron just had his first injury where he missed extended time. I just don’t like the prospects of that. Zo gon have to play way more defense to cover for Kyrie, Bron is in his 17th season, only way Kyrie makes sense is if you get a defensive beast.

On top of that, Kyrie ain’t leading the Lakers anywhere post LeBron. Hell, what if LeBron gets hurt again? Is Kyrie gon fold like they just did in Boston?

I still cant believe he folded like that

That shyt just makes entirely too much sense. With all of these great backcourts we’d have the best perimeter defense in the league and we’d be hiding LeBron on defense somewhat while also relieving his burdens with a player you can bank on at both ends of the floor.

Plus also for the locker room, we need a lowkey guy like Kawhi as opposed to another strong personality in Kyrie.

Takes me ten clicks on tankathon to get the Lakers in the top 4
