Don’t blame Ainge for this, but I definitely blame him for not making moves last summer that he should have made (ie. Kawhi).

Kemba would be crazy not to go. Crazy.



35y old Lebron and Glass man A. Davis. Dont know, i would choose the Mavs with Luka and KP and 2021 cap space for a 4th star (something the Lakers wont have if they sign Kemba).

And Kembas knows that GM Lebron would trade his ass again if he could get an upgrade or a buddy


Lakers will be eliminating the Mav's from playoff contention and the first round for years to come. :lol:

Anyone saying this was dumb for NOP is out of their freaking mind. It was an awesome deal for them! They could look something like this next year

Garland/Ball
Holiday/Moore
Ingram/Hart
Williamson
Randle/Okafor

Instant rebuild and they could even get younger if they traded Holiday for #6 and drafter Culver. That is probably the best rebuilding team in the league with 2 fresh rookie contracts.

How?
The 4th pick might be a better asset than anything that was offered back in Feb? Kuzma is the only asset they didn't get from the Lakers.



They were already offering the pick in February...plus kuz and zubac ...they got less now.


They're not psychic though
Nobody thought they'd get the 4th pick at the time

This is a win-win trade for both teams.
Everyone knows I am not a Lakers fan but Ingram will be a star in this league.
I have no idea how good or bad Lonzo will be in future.
Hart might develop into a good role player but he will never play well under pressure.

Lakers have plenty of guys they can get to fill out the roster with their remaining roster.

Seth Curry - 3/15
Melo - Vet Min
Wade - Vet Min
Noah - Vet Min
JJ Reddick - 2/16
Robin Lopez

Not everyone of them of course but they have options. Or do Butler max, then MLE offer Seth.

This sucks for pelicans. Worse offer than last year, knew they would lose leverage when Danny backed out and was all talk.


LeBron is going to be 36 for the 2020-21 season and AD hasn't played a full season since middle school. Throw in that Lakers management is in shambles and that pick is far from guaranteed to be trash.

Wow lot of FRPs for NO. I think they get a pretty nice haul. Lakers also get to compete and have a good chance in the west with KD and Klay being out.

West is gonna be a bloodbath for sure next year. I'm sure Portland and the Nugs will be right there again, and we have some dark horses too.

Win win for both. Pelicans are going to have a very nice young core to build around. Going to be interesting if they can somehow swing Zion and Barrett.

I’m betting the Lakers already have an under the table deal with either Kyrie or Kemba.

Kuzma is trash, the Pelicans finessed the Lakers in that regard... They pretended to want Kuzma so Lakers would throw in extra firsts + Hart.

Zubac makes no sense with a team that has Zion. So I doubt they would've resigned him anyways. The added value in that pick is more than Kuzma's value.



They were ready getting the pick in Feb plus kuzma...now no kuzma...pels acted unprofessionally in February and they ended up getting less.


A trade in February could've displaced the Pelicans at the lottery from getting Zion. It's no telling if the Lakers finished 11th for the #4 pick as well

Who are we fooling. With GS out of their way, and a 2nd star in LA. Barring major injuries this teams going to the finals.

To think that ainge probably would have pulled the trigger if kyrie just said hed resign if AD was there.
