You a fool aha

[ambchang]

Knowing the league it will be a kuzma plus two second round picks for Siakam and the laker fans will whine that they gave up too much because all the teams should just give them their assets for the privilege of being associated with the lakers.

Makes sense from a league profit sharing angle.

So you want to trade a 24 year old with big upside and future all star potential for a 30 year old who's known to be an asshole?

i would considering it's a win-now situation in LA and lebron is on the wrong side of 30.

did he look on the wrong side of 30 last night when he buried the spurs in 3 minutes ?

[Laker_1995]

Fuck this fake ass tough guy Morris . Dude couldn’t even honor his contract with SA and dissed them even though it was funny since it’s SA that’s kid shit. He can stay or head to the clippers I’m good on that

We got a shot at Mook. A frontline of AD Bron and Mook is quite formidable in a closing lineup. I hope it happens, especially since Mook shot the bird at the Sp*rs :lol

[TDMVPDPOY]

why do the lakers need morris, when they already got 3 bigs? in davis, gee, coward?

[JamStone]

Marcus is the twin that has played a lot of SF and not exclusively PF like his brother. Other than LeBron, Lakers don’t really have a wing with true SF size and length unless you count 70 year old Jared Dudley. Plus Morris is shooting like 44% from three this season. He makes a lot of sense for the Lakers. But he also has a $15 million salary, and what do the Lakers have to deal in contracts to match that?

Then give all DG minutes to KCP. Done.

Lebron has 3 or 4 years left. When he retires Kuz will be like 27 years old entering his prime. So if I was the Lakers, I would keep Kuz and hope you win at least 1 ring with Lebron in the next 3 or 4 years. When Lebron retires, Kuz is still young put him in the starting lineup with AD. Also try and get another star player to join the Lakers to replace Lebron when he retires.

Laker fans stop making these threads lmao. Makes it so easy to clown us

[HarlemHeat37]

I'd be shocked if the Lakers could win more than 1 game against the Clippers. A sweep wouldn't be surprising, either, they match up horribly.

The Lakers FO's hard on for Kuzma is difficult to comprehend.

At this point, nobody can convince me that Kuzma is not fucking Jeanie Buss.

At least he’s an actual NBA player. We have the same situation over here but with G-league Bryn effing Forbes, and he’s starting every game. :lol.

Never thought I’d see the day the spurs and clippers fans unite. Unusual but I like it

[koriwhat]

someone took it very personal that another poster had a differing opinion. btw, lebron is a freak of nature but like all others before him he'll be out of the league by 40 or earlier and will have a substantial drop off in the next couple seasons. it is what it is man but my next opinion is stated below.


Lebron has 3 or 4 years left. When he retires Kuz will be like 27 years old entering his prime. So if I was the Lakers, I would keep Kuz and hope you win at least 1 ring with Lebron in the next 3 or 4 years. When Lebron retires, Kuz is still young put him in the starting lineup with AD. Also try and get another star player to join the Lakers to replace Lebron when he retires.

yeah definitely not a bad idea to keep kuzma. i like the kid and like you say he'll be in his prime when lebron finally hangs it up.

my initial thought was it'd be best to make that trade for morris for rn but he'll be falling off a cliff soon enough as he gets older. keeping kyle isn't a bad outlook for the franchises future.

[daslicer]

Not uniting at all. A Clippers vs Laker series is a win win for me. If the Lakes win then I get to see #2 get knocked down a few pegs when it comes to media hype along with seeing his fanboys suffer. If the Lakers lose I get to see Lebron suffer along with their awful fans. I'm not rooting for either entity in that match up. Just have to say you tend to bitch a lot about the Spurs fans rooting for the Clippers in case they face the Lakers.

:lmao Lebron is good at gutting teams before leaving in FA.

[Clipper Nation]

The club had been in negotiations with the Knicks for forward Marcus Morris, but the two sides couldn't come to an agreement.

The Lakers had been willing to offer Kyle Kuzma and Danny Green, but the Knicks didn't like that.

The Knicks then countered with a deal centered around Kuzma, Avery Bradley, DeMarcus Cousins and at least one second-round pick, but the Lakers rejected that proposal.

:lol Pelinka is as bad as GM Magic at this point.

[Bynumite]

I'm all for trading Kuzma while his value hasn't sunk even lower but no way Marcus Morris is worth what the Knicks were asking for :lol

[Clipper Nation]

They literally asked for a worse deal than the Lakers were originally offering and Pelinka said no. Danny Green >>>>>>>>>> Avery + injured washed Cousins.

[Chris Fall]

Danny Green also carries a $15 million pricetag next season. Even if Davis re-signs for max dollars, with Green off the books, the Lakers could potentially have roughly $15 million in cap space if their player option guys don't pick them up. That was likely the logic. They probably insisted on Green being part of the trade for the purposes of next season's payroll.

So depends how you look at it whether Green >>>>>> Avery + Cousins.
