Ramona is saying that we shopped Russell to all lottery teams last week. No takers.

Russell's highest value is right here on this board.

Then either they are terrible bargainers or they should have waited a year to raise his value back up. You don't sell low like this. No amount of rationalization makes this a good trade.

27.... I wish it was closer to 20 (leaf)

Things I do like:
Dlo was frustrating, and the FO didn't like his attitude either.
His knee issues were scary for a guy that young and slow
Perhaps it's not lebron we are angling for in 18

Mama. Yes.

**** no...Career loser. Even made New Orleans worse.

You can all delude yourselves into thinking there's some closed doors deal with Lebron, but it's pretty obvious to anybody with a brain that they're clearing cap space in desperation for the hope that somebody like that comes to us in free agency.

We're losing 55-60 games next year. Bringing in Paul George wins us, what, another 10? Lebron isn't leaving Cleveland for that, and if he does leave, it's not going to be to spend the twilight of his career fighting for the 8 seed. Get real.

With his size, strength and passing ability, he should be able to transition into a very effective post-up player pretty easily. The game has changed, but Magic lived on that his last couple of years.

What does this even mean?

Makes no sense. What does Lonzo have to do with this?

Tragic ass move. I'm sorry this is just awful. Now we have to see lopez' lumbering ass try to get back on D because he was holding up the "3" sign after every three-pointer he makes. I'm disgusted.

It's not shocking after hearing everything that comes out of that idiot magics mouth. A good player doesn't make a good evaluator of talent and magic is probably one of the worst at that

Guess thats the guard 'logjam' Lakers would of have if they kept him though I dont really think its that big of a jam.

After this trade, Kobe Bryant has officially been named the Greatest Laker Ever.

Logjam lowering value, see the Embiid/Noel/Okafor situation in Philly.

Bill Simmons was questioning how he can't see Lonzo and Russell on the same team. That he has no idea how that could possibly work.

People around the league just aren't as high on Russell as most of you folks think. Between us shopping him to every team in the first round of the drat and finding no suitors and this trade, that point should be pretty clear.

He is still, right now, the best player in the NBA. This last finals is just about as well as he's ever played.

GSW's are going nowhere, so it doesn't benefit you to be good immediately.

What need? How could we possibly beat GSW during the duration of his contract?

Bill Simmons is one of the stupidest talking heads ever.
