What PG doing now KD was doing his 3rd year in the league. :gucci:

that doesnt matter. what matters is, PG13 basically replaced KD and OKC is a legitimate contender, especially when Roberson gets back. they didnt rebuild because KD left like the Cavs had to. yes, KD is better than PG13 but without much talent around him how is he that much better than AD? people already consider AD top 5 or 6 player. all he needs is the chips and he bumps KD down.

Boston is automatically out because they'd have to trade Kyrie if they want AD now (Rose Rule) so that makes no sense for them.

Knicks have assets too but realistically there's not much they can do. KP/AD would tie up their cap room and they won't be able to build a contending team. If they trade KP they'd be banking on landing KD/Kyrie/Kawhi in the summer.

Evaluating the options then, the Pels have to consider whether they want to rebuild or keep a solid team like the Clippers. If they want a complete rebuild, the only 2 teams that can offer good rebuild packages (they'd also be dealing Jrue somewhere else):

12 mil in cap relief and 3 of Ball/Ingram/Kuzma/Hart/Zubac/1st rd pick is hands down the best rebuild package they can get

+ Sixers throw in a 1st rd pick

12 mil in cap relief + Fultz + a rookie 1st-rounder in Zhaire + a 1st rd pick isn't bad but Lakers can easily beat that out. Which is why Sixers might have to go this route:

+ Sixers throw in a 1st rounder. This gives Pels a star player and a lot of cap flexibility as well as solid young pieces (sophomore no. 1 pick and a rookie 1st-rounder)

Raps can also offer

+ Raps 1st-round pick, but Lakers can easily beat that if they wanted to

Bucks, Houston, OKC, and Spurs would then all be offering pieces that keeps the Pels afloat with Jrue in the picture

Skip like :blessed:




He got a story he can link to Lebron and milk this for about a year or when ever AD a free agent




Those talking heads struggle for topics during downtime’s like this :pachaha:
It’s been bad son .

He even went so far as to blame bron for being injuried the first time in his career .

If you think Kristaps is getting traded

:laff:

I think its a good chance. Take a chance on getting AD or wait til KP is healthy then have to match offer sheets? we have seen flashes but we dont know who good KP is going to be. if you can get AD w/o giving up that pick, then hell yeah KP is as good as traded.

shyt is fukked up but honestly, I'm ready for this era to be over.

Demps and Redeyes need to go immediately. Sad thing is I would bet Loomis ( :gucci:) will bring in Dumars and Avery Johnson and call it a day.


Yep, both need to get the fukk. Signing a player to a max after that player states he wants to leave is the first sign that GM ain't shyt.

Funny all the sources pointing towards the Lakers favor. Klutch Sports working overtime today :sas2:

Lol, he is a RFA. Nothing is stopping him from signing the qualifying offer and fukking up the Pels where they can't even trade him. Zero chance.
