Woj: Anthony Davis Traded to Lakers for Brandon Ingram, Lonzo Ball, Josh Hart, & Three 1st Rnd Picks - including #4

[dautjazz]

Yeah, y'all Lakers fans still think Lebron is a cancer?

They're gonna be the 2015-18 Cavs on Steroids if they get Kemba

They need to fill out the roster still. Cavs had decent depth on the perimeter, atleast when it comes to shooting. Not going to find guys like Korver or JR for basically nothing anymore. Lakers really don't have many assets to begin win to make more moves.

This is LeGM we're talking about. He's gonna add TJ Warren for like a 2nd

[Dan Z]

It's a major L.

Ainge BOTCHED it horribly.

We don't know what went on behind the scenes. Maybe AD refused to sign an extension with Boston if they traded for him?

This isn't the only thing he botched.

He should have traded for Kawhi last year too.

Were there reports about what the Spurs wanted from Boston?

[Mauro Pedrosa]

I'd rather get Mitchell Robinson, #3 and other stuff from the Knicks, but not sure if the Knicks were willing to do that now that KD is out for the season

[kobe_vs_jordan]

The 3 picks are they then for the 2021, 2023 and 2025 drafts?

Imagine Davis pulling a Dwight and leaving the Lakers. That could seriously cripple them for a while

4, 2020, 2022 likely.

[Arteezy]

If he deals Tatum and all these guys and AD leaves next year are you here saying he botched the trade?

He should have traded slighty better-Shane Battier for Kawhi last year.

[VCfor3]

If I’m New Orleans I’m trying to trade that fourth pick with other picks or Holiday to move up for Morant.

Ja will be hard to pry away from Memphis. We seem to have already fallen in love with the guy. I wonder what kind of package NOP would have to put together to make Memphis pull the trigger. There is a wide gap between #2 and #4 this draft.

[WestbrookGOATed]

Lakers are finals bound for sure now

In 2K, yes.

[bwgood77]

Lakers won the trade simply because the get AD. Thee picks are nice but I can’t see Lonzo fitting in NO. How long before Lakers’ fans suddenly stop defending Ball?

Well they've played Rondo and Payton there the last two years at PG, with Jrue at the 2. At least Lonzo shot about 33% from 3.

[Pharmcat]

Griffin folded

My gosh, he just got a group of promising young players and 3 future firsts one of which is #4 this year. I haven't seen the protections on the other 2 firsts but if they aren't protected and if one of them isn't due for 4 years that could be a very high pick since it will be the year after lebron's deal is up. Typically his former teams tank very hard the year after he leaves.

I honestly don't know how Grif could have done any better than he just did. I think that was a hell of a deal for the Pels

I thought Lakers players were trash? That's what posters kept on saying. They didn't get kuzma like being offered in February , so pels got a worse deal today.

[RalphWiggum]

Silver needs to veto for basketball reasons

This deal is much better than what was being traded for Paul.

If anything I think they gave up too much.

I would've traded LeBron if I were the Lakers.

[HoopsterJones]

So does Jimmy Butler or Kawhi join them on the Lakers? That would be......something. No depth though.

Kawhi is not a guy who joins other players, as the teams are currently formed, Raptors would probably beat the Lakers in a series

Probably. Just know that he wanted to go to LA and Lebron had been reported recruiting him. A big three of Lebron, AD, and Kawhi sounds intimidating though. But no depth.

Wow, they missed out on Kawhi now they bout to lose Kyrie and miss out on AD.

To be honest: After the statements of Rich Paul there is no way Danny can trade Jayson Tatum.

In 2K, yes.

Yeah, they still gotta build around LeBron and AD and hope for no serious injuries, a lot can happen until next June.

[Mr Loggins]

heh - Altman really trojan horse teabagged Ainge.

Kyrie ruins the celtics season, then leaves Ainge at the Alter, making him unable to pull the trigger on the big fish he’s reportedly been waiting half a decade for.

[HoopsterJones]

Trade Zo to Chicago or PHX for their pick, draft Garland with the 4th pick, and Culver or Hunter with the 6th or 7th pick

As a Bulls fan, I want no part of Lonzo Ball. I’d rather keep the #7 pick.

[sikma42]

26 yr old top 3 player in the world for those bums. Take it every single time. Grab a third star and take the gamble

The overreactions on this forum are always a good laugh. OMG LAKERS GOT A PLAYER THATS MADE IT TO THE SECOND ROUND 1 TIME IN 6 YEARS! LAKERS TO THE FINALS!

[And1+2]

Kawhi can come aboard and be the second option if he wants now

We got ourselves some space left but its in high demand, first come first serve

Kawhi is not going to be a second option. Unlike most of the Superstars in this league, he has this thing called integrity.

He will stop you from getting your ring though...

Way better than what Buford got for Leonard. Good trade for both teams imo
