Some of these pivots are hilarious from the same people who 2 years ago were typing daily essays about LeBron being extremely toxic and turning everyone around him into spot up shooters.

Kings giving Harry Barnes that deal was so idiotic. They aren't even thinking about this move if not for that deal. Would be a major upgrade and better fit for the Lakers.

 

[sohi 23]

The funniest apart about that tweet is it makes it seem like the Kings need to offer more than Bogey for the Lakers to accept it.

highway robbery

 

[kvsm23vs24]

Yea cuz Lebron at age 35 is the same as any other player at 35.

 

[rolaholic]

This dudes trainer just had to mess it up for him

Here goes the lakers organization once again overrating the crap out of their players.

Lakers don't really need Markkanen, but this trade is enticing because it unloads Bradley.

sounds to me like Sacramento is the team overrating Kuzma.

 

[ballinsam23]

Kings need two way players though. Idk what another scorer will do for them. Whole core is full of score first mentality players. This doesnt move the needle for them at all.

Heading towards Suns 2.0 category.

Bogi so much better than marshal matters

 

[finessence]

I think it's easy for us to sit back and say this because it isn't real to us. Having to move across country, uproot whatever situation you're just getting settled into in your new city, and throw having a young kid in the mix. It's always not as clear cut for these guys.

I mean. Yeah and no. If anything, athletes know that getting traded, released, or signing elsewhere is commonplace In sports. I understand both sides. I probably wouldn’t even furnish my place for that very reason

 

[lovehateself]

Bogi so much better than marshal matters

not really
if anything
theyre very similar

 

[ballinsam23]

Tried to cook something up for a Marcus Morris to Philly trade and i think it's impossible unless a 3rd team is involved.

Knicks can probably get real smart and get 2 FRPs back with a 3rd team tryna unload a contract but i doubt our FO is that smart.

 

[sohi 23]

When the Lakers flip Bradley, Cook & Kuz for Bogdan & Bjelica and then sign Darren Collison >>>>>>

He's better off ball than Kuzma too. I liked it

 

[pmatic]

The way that Marc Stein tweet is worded, it makes it seem like the Kings are ready to offer Bogdanovic and an additional asset for Kuzma.

Must be a Laker leak to drive up Kuzma's value.

 

[antidope]

Trading Kuzma after giving up picks to keep him has to be a management demerit... Right?

They’ll still be the 2nd best team in LA?

Looks bad now, but idk if anyone thought he'd look this bad this season.

 

[pmatic]

Kuz hasn't been healthy until the last two weeks, is learning a new role and Javale/Dwight are giving the Lakers 48 minutes of good center play. Easy to see him struggling given all those circumstances.

nah,
kuz has outperformed his draft selection slot.
way better commodity to have than an unknown late round pick
albeit, he'll have to be paid soon
