Some teams mechanically can't trade anyone because of the second apron but it's going to be the biggest "player movement ever" :pachaha:

They going to spend all this time hyping Giannis to the Spurs and the Spurs are just going to draft Dylan Harper and keep it moving :pachaha:

All this time hyping 76ers attaching that pick to Paul George to trade him and they just going to pick Ace Bailey and run it back with the same team :pachaha:

All this hype about KD and he just going to get traded to another team who will either be in the play in or miss the playoffs altogether :pachaha:
Agreed

Shams sounding like a dude that depends on hype for his career trying to drum some up.

there's no way the biggest free agent summer comes after the implementation of the second apron...

The league low key fukked themselves with that because most NBA hype comes from player movement or POSSIBLE player movement nowadays...

Any team that trades major assets for KD is dumb as hell and I'm here for it :ahh:
If KD goes anywhere for it to be beneficial to him and the team he goes to, that team HAS to be led by a young superstar. KD is not a #1 anymore.

I'd like to see him in Minnesota next to Ant, but I think they need a legit point guard more than anything.

The LeBron opting in aspect is interesting cause it either could mean this is his “swan song” and last year playing ever

Or it means this is his last year in LA and he’s gonna test FA after and see what that looks like

What that means for LA/Luka and their plans is important this year. Can’t punt on the season, but realizing this is likely Lebrons last year as a Laker will have them do some interesting things with Reaves/Rui etc

Needs to be Bron's last year for the Lakers regardless. We targeting 2026.

I can see him maybe doing a Cleveland swan song.

Only way I think its a good idea to add KD to your team right now is if you add him as a Free Agent and like you said with a young beast # 1 already there.

Ant looks good on paper but I'm not sure if Ant is ready yet

He's still having playoff games where he's takin 13 shots

Funny I read that it might’ve been the most boring in a long time on ESPN, but maybe I was tired and it was only about free agents

Alot of the Lakers cap space will be freed up by 2026, so they could def go after a bigger fish during that year and either Lebron is gone and they gotta fill that gap or he takes a big paycut to come back on an extremely friendly deal

Him going back to Cleveland is probably the only place I see him going if he doesn’t stay in LA and doesn’t retire

Where is this talk that Cleveland even wants him? Especially for 1 year

They have title hopes & a Bron rental is not the missing piece
