I like it. I like it a lot. Lonzo, PG, Randle, Ingram, another top 5 pick next year.
Now they just need to get rid of Deng.
I really think Magic and Pelinka were done with D'Angelo. Hasn't developed the way they expected.
D'Angelo Russell traded to the Nets for Brook Lopez & 27th pick

The Nets have been shopping Lopez for years but I didn't think they could get a return this good. Somehow the Nets found a way to get a top prospect with little assets. Great move for them. They have plenty of capspace to eat Mozgovs deal.
They're banking on LeBron. fukk waiting on that wish washy ass nikka. PG wants to be here now. I don't like DLo much but he's worth more than a salary dump. If you're banking on Bron and PG playing here next year based on their word it's stupid AFWhy are Lakers fans mad at this?
You're gonna get Ball who will be your franchise PG, clearly Russell wasn't that and wasn't seen as a true SG
Y'all bytched about Mozgov now you actually have a big who can shoot, rebound and ball at a high level
Plus y'all picked up another pick, which y'all need so that y'all can rebuild
Y'all acting like Russell is even a top 20 PG in this league
Am I missing something here?

We got a GM that actually makes good deals.My only gripe is that I wanted Brook to go to a contender after having to play for so many losing seasons. Now he'll probably get dropped when it's time for George to sign.
I think I'm done with this team breh

This jersey would look great on me

.
Lakers don't have their pick next year breh the Celtics or Sixers do
And there gonna let Randle walk next year so they have more capspace
I wasn't that high on Russell he non athletic streaky shooter at best he isn't dame/russ/curry/westbrook clear moz contract and grab a first and lopez he can walk then you have cap space. I prefer that over have five 22-23 year olds with PG flexibility the lakers about to be a free agent destination. Lebron/PG/Boogie pretty decent class among a few others.

Can't say this is a terrible trade till you see what they do with Indiana. This is CLEARLY the first step in a plan.
If they end up getting PG13 for Deng + Picks shyt will be a masterstroke.

Good deal for the Nets, they get a solid guy and a nice piece to start
