    I wonder if the Lakers found a way to unload Deng without giving up Ingram/Lonzo/Kuz or Hart? If it's a pending trade, that's not necessarily tampering.

    Batumdump, 11, Zu, TB to Sac
    Dengdump, Jules (max QO), 25, future picks to the Cats
    Dwight's expiring 25M and a 21M TPE (which will be used on an opted-in PG later) to LA

    Mitch owes us and we're giving him a guy he drafted and a guy he threw crazy money at.
    Vlade owes Magic and the Lakers own the queens...plus giving them the 11th pick allows them to draft at 2 smartly and then target their "reach" at 11. This deal preemptively saves them from themselves.
    Dwight is a rebounder, rim runner and a decent defensive pretense. Gets to redeem himself with LA fans. Is an expiring deal we can use to package with kids to SA in case Kawhi becomes available. Dwight chose Houston in free agency at one time so sending him to Texas again isn't far fetched.

    She said she's 99% sure it's about leather pants.

    That's it. That's all we get.

    Maybe the news is that LeBron, in a vain effort to push his fashion agenda after the failed attempt to push suit shorts, was being measured for his latest fashion faux pas: custom leather pants, when he told the tailor that he plans to sign with the Lakers...

    Ok, I think Jeannie’s tweet meant nothing basketball related. Like maybe she just thought she looked fly in some new leather pants. And now Ramona is just trolling us.

    ... OR that’s exactly what they want us to think because Lebron actually committed behind the scenes, and so they’re just doing damage control to make Jeannie’s tweet look irrelevant and avoid tampering charges!

    You can even go as far as Le(bron) and Pa(ul George)

    Not going to lie. I actually think there is some truth to this.

    This is what Mike Brown / D'Antoni / Byron + several losing seasons in a row will do to a fanbase.
