NBA Season 2018/19

Seriously though, I'm assuming the Lakers are his preferred destination. I'm not sure what any team in the league can really give up for AD that's assumed fair value. They're going to likely have to give up Ingram/Kuzma/Hart in the deal.

I feel bad for Jrue in all this

I can see NO holding out, but i dont rate them as an organisation so no clue.

Kuzma, Ball, Zubac and a pick seems to make sense for NO. They get a PG, PF, C and a draft pick.

Not ideal but would make them a semi decent team.

Holiday, Randle, Kuzma, Ball, Zubac, Mirotic

then add in NO lottery pick next year + a late Lakers first rounder.

Here's the trade Magic Johnson should offer, and I assume he will. Lonzo, Ingram, Kuzma, Zubac & Lance (for cap purposes) + 2 unprotected 1sts for Anthony Davis

Pretty sure I called AD being traded around this time a year or so ago, can't find the proof. I just remember everyone basically calling me crazy. :P

Would not be surprised if Lakers ended up nabbing AD and Kawhi, holy moly.

Yeah that's what I'm thinking, but you never know.

What else is interesting is Hart and Kuzma being questionable for tomorrow... ???

Leonard has said he doesn't want to play with LeBron. Same as KD. I think they're probably a good bet to play together at the Clippers

Issue with this is the squad is then

Rondo Hart Lebron ???? AD

so assuming lakers cant lock in a superstar free agent, AD will be in a worse situation then he was in NO when lebron retires. I guess the only difference is now he is in LA and perhaps he attracts free agents.

I dont see the lakers offering that much regardless if its for AD. Thats close to what he is worth and in these circumstances you dont get what your superstar is worth.

I can see them giving up 3 of those 4 players but not all of them. Keeping Kuzma would be ideal but i think Lakers need to keep ingram at least that way you can at least line up with

Rondo Hart Ingram Lebron AD.

KCP Mcgee Chandler Beasely off the bench.

If Lakers lose all 3 of Ball, Ingram and Kuzma they would be better off trading LeBron haha. Not worth losing that much talent

HUGE TRADE

Mavs get Prozingis, Hardaway Jnr, Lee & NYK get Jordan, Matthews, Smith Jnr and a 1st round pick

Even with Porzingis out the Mavs won this.
Hardaway is a decent player and when Porzingis is fit, him and Luka are gonna be amazing to watch.

Shams reporting that Porzingis is going to accept a qualifying offer so he can become an unrestricted free agent. This is madness!
