    Do you realize how much Ainge HATES the Lakers? He will make a lopsided trade in the other team’s favor just so he doesn’t have to trade Kessler to the Franchise he despises the most.

    Counterpoint, he did the Russ trade with us for just one FRP after we'd heard for weeks that it would take at least an FRP just to take on Russ's expiring. If he thinks he's getting the better of us (like he did when we traded him the 2027 FRP), he'd do it.

    But that said, I don't think Kessler happens for us because I think they'll move Lauri if it comes to it. It doesn't make any sense to trade for JJJ and then let Kessler go, Kessler is exactly the type of 5 that JJJ needs to play with. Lauri is going to be the odd man out IMO.
