D'Angelo Russell traded to the Nets for Brook Lopez & 27th pick

[Dwight Howard]

Snitches get stitches

I like this move.

> gets D. Loading's 'I'm a SUPER STAR' ego off the team (you don't build a franchise around D. Loading. You build a outside 3-on-3 weekend tournament team around him)
> brings back locker room trust

> allows space for Lonzo Ball

> only 1 PG leader on the team, no Russell vs Ball stress

I like it

Allows space for ball??..we just got rid of the best spot up shooter on the team. This hurts lonzo if anything

A 34 year old LeBron is still better than 99% of the players in the league.

But you cried when we gave Kobe 28m

D'Angelo Russell and Caris LeVert backcourt tho

We Couldve traded Russell from Cousins at the deadline

I thought they wanted Ingram. That's a no brainer for Russell

Thr achilles didnt end kobe's career so what are you saying?..

and you cant call people dumb when you think trading away a young asset because you might be able to sign a a 34 year old Lebron a year from now is a good move.

I see where your coming from. I just dont think you should give a 34 year old player the max in any case.

Russell ain't shyt but I find it hilarious that this turned into a Laker clown thread cause the apparently the only people who ever thought Russell would amount to anything is Lakers stans, now they dumb for trading him

 

[Alexander The Great]

LeBron will be a great to very good player for another 8 years if he wants to man. yall trippin. plus his value to the franchise makes giving him the max a no brainer, even for the lakers

Any prospect the lakers draft is trash until they play for another team, then people see the potential

Most people added extra hate to Russell just because he was a Laker. It definitely wasn't mainly because of his game. And now that he isn't on the Lakers anymore the extra hate is gone so they(nonlakerfans) appreciate his game more. Just a bunch of stan war bullshyt.
