Lakers-Jazz Trade

[NUMBERICA]

And/or Lakers trying to get trade leverage?

Honestly, this is what crossed my mind.

God, I am so sick of these games. I'm sure the FO is too.

Why Russ playing along doe? I think Russ knows if they trade him he gets cut and he may be in Carmelo purgatory.

That would require a small degree of self-awareness.

What leverage? Either the picks are available or they are not. If they are not I can think of nothing better than watching the Lakers roll with Westbrook while giving Phoenix a call.

Unless that's a hologram him and Bev have had three separate public moments of "see we cool!!!".

Haha cool, run out RW, its worth the entertainment alone and we will find homes for our guys. Again, they need us more than we need them.....

Honestly, if I'm the Lakers I would probably just stand pat. Bogey/Beasley/Clarkson etc would really help them, but enough to drop 2 picks for some rentals? This is the NBA, only one thing matters. They aren't a championship team with or without the trade.

If they want to make a move, the Jazz have the best move. But it's probably better for them to do nothing.

One blown defensive assignment and their friendship is over. Meaning that their locker room is divided, and $#1+ gettin' ugly.

See how well that worked for NY. Don't mess with Danny.

Anyone who paid attention to the Lakers at all last year knows that there is no way they run it back. Westbrook was next level cancerous for that locker room.

Yeah, I’m sure LeBron is thrilled to run it back with a 33-49 team.

What ever will we do with our coveted veterans with good contracts…
