So they wouldn't trade the young guys for Kawhi but would trade then for Wall and his big ass trade kicker? Yeah alright lol.

Lakers would never do this trade. They don’t even get better in the short term and lose out on the opportunity of courting much better players.
I get that but maybe they have inside info that these better players won't join LeBron in the off season. They can't waste these final years of Bron playing at an elite status. They need guarantees or strong hints that another star wants to play with Bron and the Lakers right now. No time for courting only to come up empty handed again. They can't have another PG situation in the off season. I think Magic is kinda realizing that stars might not want to play Bron Ball and that its not attractive.. Hell he's an all time great point guard who was pass first that's why he initially loved Lonzo. Magic loves Bron on the Lakers but I don't think he's a fan of Bron Ball. Didn't he have a meeting with Luke Walton about his minutes and playing point?

i'm guessing they wanna add another all-star level player to help convince AD to sign so they can win a championship...if not then this trade is dumb. wall isn't worth giving up the young core.

Wall and possibly Beal will be sitting there in August if the Lakers strike out this summer. Only then will I think it’s a possibility.

Actually, you can trade in to cap space without matching salaries. I know a few things. :aicmon:
