stony Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 A+ for Lakers ...they get a top 5 player in his prime. None of the other guys going the other way project as an All Star IMO. 19 minutes ago, BADOLBILZ said: New Orleans could've got that deal back in February.......so much for the new GM doing better..........not having to give up Kyle Kuzma makes it a great deal for the Lakers, IMO.

Except there’s a good chance doing in February makes the 4 much worse if AD helps a playoff run and never know if the new blood hurts the pels shot at 1. this thread also isn’t including the ability the swap picks with the Lakers in the seasons they don’t have their 1. not a GREAT haul but given his ability to tank this season and walk in a year, and also his ability to refuse to sign elsewhere.... not a bad trade 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Pelicans getting Zion was just a stroke of luck but I think LA getting the #4 pick worked out better for LA too because then they didn't have to give up Kuzma. Can't see that deal getting done without Kuzma without the Lakers getting that very high #1 pick in the lottery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the hope in Nola is spin Lonzo and 4 into a solid player, let Ingram be your boom or bust asset short term and then know you have good draft capital. I could be wrong but id be a little surprised if lonzo ever sets foot in the pels home locker room. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

section122 Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 11 hours ago, YoloinOhio said: This isn't quite right. It is: No. 4 in 2019 2021 pick goes to pels if it is top 8. If not 2022 goes and is unprotected. Pick swap in 2023 Unprotected first in 2024 with the right to defer to 2025. If that happens the pick swap gets pushed to 2026. So the Lakers will still have picks to utilize it will be the pels choice which one they get though. Barring injury I think the draft capital won't be as great as it appears to be now but this has potential to blow up huge in the Lakers face. I'm a Lakers fan and really happy with the deal. This is being on the opposite end of the Shaq to the heat deal for me. We gave up some good players and got a superstar. Make that deall 100 times out a 100 in the nba. 13 hours ago, YoloinOhio said: Interesting I don't buy this for one second. This is some retroactive protect the locker room propaganda.

If I'm Ainge, I can't risk losing him with Kyrie out the door and AD not going to re-up in 1 year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted June 21, 2019 Author Share Posted June 21, 2019 (edited) I approve of the Celtics draft picks. That is all. Brad Stevens reaching deep into the state of Indiana - ok with me.

I think a lot of Nets fans feel that way, and as someone who lived through the Kyrie experience not once but twice (living around cavs fans/media and then as a Celtics fan myself) I can’t really blame them. DLO, I think, wants to go back to LA so I wonder if they think he will not re-sign with them anyway when he becomes a UFA and taking the opportunity to lock up Kyrie while they can.

I’ve followed DLO since his Buckeye days of course, I think he was a little raw to go to the NBA, wasn’t considered a 1 and done type entering college, but can’t blame him for leaving. Always thought he would need a couple years. That Lakers situation he went to wasn’t great for him (replacing Kobe). Also not sure he was ready to live in LA. Anyway, the talent was always there but I can see why they weren’t sure about him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenny really worked with him and told he needed to improve. Dlo then stayed in Brooklyn in the off season and worked with the Nets coachs (to his credit). I wish him the best.

The Nets prefer Kyrie over DLO. They held up on signing DLO until they knew they had Kyrie under contract. If DLO goes to LA or wherever it is because he was let go by his own team. Also, it was because the Nets signed Irving that they were also able to sign Durant. That wouldn't have been the case if DLO was signed instead of Irving.
