Lakers aren't getting a third star anyway. There's no room for 3 stars.

There is if one is Wall making only 19 next year.


Pg is gonna make 30 plus. Lakers right now have like 46 mill. Where does the rest come from? Randle only makes around 5 mill Clarkson makes 12

See my trade above. They can clear that money if they are willing to trade their valuable guys.

Wall (20)/PG (35)/ Cousins (35) is 90 mil. Then cap holds for roster spots and cheap guys like Hart, Zubac, Kuzma. They can make it work.

couldnt la make it work if clarkson is part of this was deal, then stretch deng? ball/jc/nance combined out going is a few mill more than wall next yr, so la should only be a few mill shy of 60mill in cap space

The trade checker says Wall can’t be traded until July because of the new contract he signed, and in July he will be a Poison Pill Provision contract.

Interesting - that's what I was afraid of. And Mr. Ball's big mouth could have been a good catalyst for a Ball trade. He's at it again now saying Walton's lost control of the team.
