    eh, in fairness, taylor had traded kg to the lakers before the mchale/ainge romance messed it up. so, he's a big talker...

    anyway, the lakers should keep making token offers in these situations to keep the costs up for others while quietly executing bigger plans (e.g., lebron).

    ^^^Boston didn't back-up the brinks for IT cause of injury concerns and Ky hadn't been anything close to durable for his entire career. I doubt it's a given he stays, let alone the cbags throw him that type of bag. If it was a given it wouldn't be a "big-time decision"...

    I don't know bro, I got my doubts.

    Best case scenario is Jimmy and Kyrie go to the Knicks and add strength to the east coast. The C Bags lose Kyrie for nothing lol. Kawhi or KD signing with us would be awesome too next summer. Then the clippers can trade for a bag of Deez nuts

    Isn't it hunny how more and more star players are forcing their teams to a trade, just to be paid more a year later by another team? Seems like the current CBA, constructed to kick the Lakers, isn't working so well or the creators i.e. small market teams.

    I don't like what the players are doing, but the owners have only themselves to blame. Suck it you petty, incompetent morons.

    I much rather get Kawhi.

    I wouldn't even give up Ingram or Kuzma for Butler.

    I agree wholeheartedly, and to add to that, never pay pure for a 14 carat superstar, Jimmy Butler is the gold of fools.

    I would much rather gamble on Ingram and Ball and Hart, then put the kids up for adoption.

    I guess I would have traded Julius and Deng for him, if that still applied but ya know?

    I statements are amazing sometimes, just realized what I did.

    This feels relevant to the topic. The Wolves clearly made their choice, and a possible big name free agent is already off the board

    They're going to get very little. Too bad we didn't have some expiring fodder ready to move.

    Miami, Cleveland and Raptors pursuing Jimmy this morning. Apparently Miami is going after him hard.

    Josh Richardson, Winslow, pick?

    Beats some offers I've seen tossed about.
