I really do not understand why these teams are so hellbent on always helping the Lakers.
No one should want to deal with them at all unless its absolute trade rape.
But they just bail them out every year.

It does always seem that they’re bailed out but it’s probably more just that Lakers actually are willing to pull the trigger on a trade often. Most teams sit on assets and are afraid. Lakers make a pretty big trade every deadline. In a league of conservative GMs, Lakers are the most active.

The Lakers always set themselves up to be able to make trades. The Warriors were good at stacking tradeable salaries, too until they stumbled upon a guy who helped them win a title (Wiggins) and got 2 early, 1sts after that one bad hiccup year.
The Hawks have been trying to deal Murray (at a huge loss, mind you) for weeks and the market seems very lukewarm for him. So the Lakers, who only kept Russell to have a salary to make a deal like this, are there to help. It's clear ATL wants that salary dumped, though. I don't know what pick capital they have to pay a team to do it.

Every team looks at the Lakers as a ticking bomb just waiting to go off. FOs are happy to help them make these moves because they want to be the one holding the bag when the music eventually stops. Are problem is that our ticket is just a bit too early

Methinks there is some cash changing hands outside of the league channels.
