    If Lakes get toronto kawhi leonard, it will change the lanscape of the NBA. AD and Lebron will not win title if just those two.

    In the long run it seems to be that way but if Zion is as injury prone as AD was then the trade was just a little better.

    All dependent on whom they get with the 4th pick.

    The Rockets would have given up 4-5 picks but lesser picks.

    It's either GSW or Lakers for him.

    He is a close friend of AD.

    Well, yeah, but I guess those are not hindsight pick swaps......folks still count on draft mistakes though.

    I have a bad feeling that the Lake Show are going to cruise to an easy championship.

    Pretty much anything Lavar Ball predicts, the opposite happens.

    I expect nothing less from him though. A tough curse or voodoo spell.

    Lol, LiAngelo is not NBA scrub material and LaMelo's shot is broke.

    For the first time ever I like what comes out of Lavar Ball mouth I hope what he says comes true. That they never win another championship. Here is to hoping. Looks like they back to buying championships.

    I mean if Kawhi stays in Toronto, Bucks as well. this Lakers team as of current is not a great team YET. ESPN trade machine/Five thirty eight had them @ near 52-53 wins with an Anthony Davis.

    No guarantee for Lebrun ad and lakers. It took a 5 all-star team to take us out. If we got on another bracket. We would have had a better chance at the warriors.

    Everyone will over react but 35 year old Lebron + AD isn’t that scary to me... add Kawhi and its scary but as of right now... eh

    Semi related.

    If the Lakers got picks 1-3 in this draft instead of the 4th - did they need to give that up to some other team as part of a previous trade?

    I thought they did, but my brother's telling me they didn't.

    This trade probably means Kawhi would stay in Toronto.

    Was just thinking about the Spurs, they have to be kinda depressed seeing the difference between what they got for Kawhi (which is the best player) and this.

    Don't hyperbole it though, Cousins wasn't even playing in the series and was not performing like an All-Star when he did play in the post-season.

    Matchups will be a factor after we see what the Lakers add.
