Lakers pursuit of James and George, continues. If the Cavs included Brooklyn’s pick then Koby/Gilbert got fleeced.

[BG_Spurs_Fan]

Great deal for Lakers, especially if they get a first round pick too.

[spurraider21]

nice haul for the lakers, provided IT can rebound (figuratively)

[Clipper Nation]

So does this mean the Lakers are already giving up on Lnz?

Exactly

Cavs traded Kyrie, their own 1st round pick for Crowder, Nance and Jordan Clarkson

horrible trade
with no Deng leaving
makes no sense ...
if you shed deng i would say makes perfect sense ...
gotta hear magic and pelinka spin on this ...

Yep, forgot about that. They should just go all in IMO, trade Brooklyn for another piece.

Looks like another rigged trade, courtesy of Stern Jr.

They're not allowed to trade the Brooklyn pick now.

Clarkson will surely help provide the defense the cavs so desperately need

LeGM with another terrible move per par.

Lakers shed $15 million and received a 1st round pick. Clarkson and Nance became expendable with the emergence of Hart and Kuzma, both under rookie scale contracts. Seems like a good move unless they resign IT in the off season.

And Deng is not going anywhere:

Ahh, got it.

Wow...........IT!!! The Lakers must NOT be sold on Lonzo.

There I fixed it for ya. The Cavs have NO offense outside of Lebron, so Clarky and Nance will definitely help.

Lakers fans are so dumb. Yall traded away instant offense. Clarkson arguable has played the best on that team all year outside 3 starters. Lonzo CANNOT score!!! He shoots like stamped dog . Good luck with that working out.

More like the NBA is giving up on IT.

IT expiring ...has nada to do with Lonzo ...
nice try ...

LeBron blowing up the Cavs before joining SA

This doesn't have anything to do with Lonzo IMO..Thomas is expiring and he could help maintain fan interest..

Thomas looks completely finished, right now..maybe he recovers in time, but his quickness, first step and athleticism are non-existent..

Lakers say they focused on 2019 so if no Big FA
we gave up our 3nd best bench scorer and dunker shot blocker for a pick ..1st rd pick and cap space thst we may not be able to use ...
