Jimmy Butler and Lowry is kind of a weird mix too... Sure it could work, but it's not an ideal distribution of talent for a playoff team...
But if I'm the Lakers and I know Miami isn't including Herro, no way I'm including THT... I'd switch it up and do Kuz and Schroder but not KCP/Schroder/THT...

Lebron better get on the phone or somthing :lol: seriously THT isnt that good still he might be 3 year down the line but thats not our window


For real. Buy out market looks like it'll be decent with Drummond and possibly a guy like OPJ from the Magic in it. Get the top end talent now, round it out with buy outs. Thats the best play if youre looking to win over the next 2 years, which im assuming with Lebron's age is what you want

Not if they keep up with garbage offers.


If Lowry really wants to go to Miami I imagine Ujiri will eventually oblige, even without Herro.

Not just for Duncan Robinson. I think we'd need Precious coming back.

Neither of them are young stars an dit's unlikely either will ever be better than Lowry is right now at this moment. And in the case of the Lakers you're sacrificing one of the final years of LeBron's prime so that THT can lead the Lakers to nowhere 5 years from now when LeBron is gone and Davis is older.

Herro I get.

THT is now being massively overrated. You have a chance to have Lowry, Lebron and AD together? That team will be scary AF in the playoffs.

I now better appreciate my Cavs being willing to give first rounders away like candy to get the Mozgovs, Fryes, and Korvers of the world in an effort to improve the team. :lol:

Chill bruh... :lol: Worst case, we add Drummond for nothing and get AD and LeBron back in time for the playoffs...
That's still good enough for the West at least, with a lot of question marks in Denver...
