That Lakers team would be one of the most unlikable teams of all time if Irving went there, I imagine even if you were a fan of the Lakers it would be unlikable too

Wouldn't be that wild.

Probably a play in team. A bunch of unreliable injury prone players.

It would either be success or chaotic meltdown either way it would be interesting to watch

As a Laker fan, the only truly unlikeable Laker teams are ones that don't put in maximum effort and play decent Defense... So yes, last season's team was one of the most unlikeable I've ever seen... If Kyrie came in and played D and got AD to play D again, I'd be fine with him...
That said, I'm about as low on this current org as I think I can be and still be a fan... And don't find the prospect of adding Kyrie as much of a needle mover...

I think Patrick Riley would trade Adebayo and Herro for Durant, but I think the Nets could do better.

Man. I’ve sat through some disappointing Lakers seasons before, but last year’s team was just… Ugh.
