I wonder if another reason for Russell being the one they move is because Bron and PG both don't want to play the 4.
Probably a good indication they're going Ball and not Josh. I did think Lonzo and Russell would work well together.
D'Angelo Russell traded to the Nets for Brook Lopez & 27th pick

so many delusional fans
paul george to the laker is the best they can do
bron or westbrook aint coming to play for that teamlike muthafukka stop pipedreams
27th pick aint gon do shyt unless they give that pick to san antonio, then spurs could draft someone with pick that low
plus brook lopez is on the contract year, so if you wanna keep him you will have to pay him big money, much bigger than what mozgov got, and question is how healthy he finna be with that big contract if lakers decide to keep him
if they let brook go then this is basically dumping mozgov and their whole year of tanking for free agency signings
NBA gettin spooky.. LeBron getting older
I wouldn't discredit rumors like that anymore
Found a way to offload Mozgov 
Premeditated
MANDE KANG
why didn't these cock suckers just offer the 28th pick, Randle and Clarkson and future 1st if they weren't going to offer Russell for George anyways
Wait, Brook is an expiring deal. 
This might not be that bad brehs .....esp if Magic can get rid of Deng.
If we can
both Deng and Mozzy, then we can't be mad if it costs us Detective.

You know how many people put up D Russell stats in the league breh?
Who are they gonna get?
Look...I liked Russell too and wouldve like to have seen him and Ball together but the .Let important thing was dumping Mozgov/Deng. You don't need to trade for PG. He's coming next year. Maybe he lands in Cleveland this year as a rental but once he didn't make All NBA, everyone can give him the same contract. Cleveland is the only contender that can get him this year. He's not staying there.
You don't use assets to get George. Clear cap and you might have to sacrifice someone to do it. If you do, sacrifice someone you can replace. Ball is his replacement.
If anything they should've got Butler for #2, amnesty Mozgov, develop this year and sign George next season and go into that season with 2 vets and a young developed squad.
Russell is trash. Shame on you nikkas crying over him. Everyone should be happy we got rid of Mozgov's terrible contract. Now this ensures we get Paul George and have a good shot at getting LeBron in 18.

Russell over Ingram????
They shytting on the Nets for this trade, Lets be clear.
Obviously they see something a lot of y'all don't.
I guess this means they're trying to get either PG or LeLoss with the first round picks. Hopefully not the #2 pick. Maybe Clarkson/Randle or both or either one and a pick
The Mavericks helped the Warriors get under the cap for Durant but it's the Nets fault for trying to improve their stock?

Salary Dump , since Next year PG and Boogie will both be UFA's.also this just shows how epic bad the lakers management was
they went for developing their young talent, then they signed for absolutely no reason mozgov and deng. And now to get rid of that horrible mozgov contract they have to give away one of their suppsed to be main pieces
