From a basketball standpoint it didn't make sense. D'Antoni is a horrible head coach. He's probably had as much talent as any head coach through out his career and never been to the finals. Not once. And they don't even have the right players to run his system. Kobe and Nash are old.
Like I said and got shytted on, the Lakers best bet was to suck this year and hope to get Wiggins or Parker. You either get your superstar franchise player in the draft or free agency. The lakers only hope is that Cleveland some how fukks up that roster and drives Irving away and Love somehow gets traded to them or something. If Kobe comes back they probably won't suck enough to get a high lottery pick.
The Owners blocking that Chris Paul trade will haunt the Lakers for years to come. The Clippers, Warriors, Rockets, Grizzles, Thunder and Spurs are all ahead of the Lakers and its all on Buss.
