You want him to sign with the Clippers or BK? He's not allowed to sign with the Lakers so essentially he could make Lakers biggest threats a lot better. I guess he could go back to GS or Boston or something but I think he ends up with the Nets. So no thanks.

There isn't a team in the league that puts more pressure on the rim than the Lakers. They're bigger than most teams at almost every position, and Lebron and AD are coming for the rim every time.

AD ends up guarding the top of the key 3 and is catching the cross-court pass to finish it or go to the line on the other end.


Lebron ain't what he used to be, no idea what he'll look like with another year. He and AD have to both play at MVP levels for the Lakers to win, they don't have a reliable third guy who can attack.

if the nets vs lakers finals happen the nets have nobody to guard AD right now and will be out rebounded 50-30 in 7 game series.

Now he's the third best player on his team.

they got victor whos kinda of all star and tons picks they made out pretty well.

Gettin Vic had no impact on prince and Allen
And would’ve made them a very balanced team with more future assets


Allen is probably going to get $20 mil per in free agency this summer and the Rockets just signed a young promising center, Wood, to a bargain contract. Prince is signed for $13 mil next season and the Rockets don't want that either.

Kyrie, in response to the trade has decided to take the rest of the regular season off and come back fresh for the playoffs.

Nets are guaranteed champions and its not close.

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Ya'll crazy.

Nets fit is TERRIBLE. and now they have no one besides Harden/KD. Kyrie is still out being a weirdo.

Nets just traded away everything again like they did with Pierce/Garnett except even worse this time.


Sit this one out man

Allen is their center of the future. They really love what McGee brings but both he and Drummond are expiring contracts. Nance is more of a PF and can even play SF in a pinch.

Who is going to play defense on the Nets? They just traded away their 3 best defenders.

I'm excited for buyout potential. Bigs on the Cavs, and can Tucker be bought out? Does he want to stay? What about EG?

AD would feast for sure, but the Lakers aren't an incredible 3-point shooting team and the Nets would be similar to the 2015-2019 Warriors in the pace that they can score. I'm just not convinced the Lakers can keep up even if AD is going to get his. Shutting down two guys, especially 1 past his prime, is doable. Shutting down 3 scorers all in their prime who can shoot from distance, score inside, hit free throws, etc? Seems like a heavy ask, and AD would be gassed from his offensive load.

Why would Allen get $20M in FA? He's a rim-running big in a league where rim-running bigs are a dime a dozen and lowly valued.

Alright I’ll pay along! Which one of KD,Irving, and harden puts up empty stats? Do you think they don’t know they’ll be sacrificing they all wanted you play together I think they’ve seen each other play

is jumping the gun. who said the lakers and nets are automatic finals shoo-ins?

boston, miami, milwaukee, sixers and the pacers all have a chance of getting to the finals
of course, the clippers are still looming large to the lakers' repeat aspirations.
