Because if Pels are coming back to the Lakers that means that Ainge tried to finesse the shite out of them, and Knicks have a lame offer. So the ball would be in the Lakers court. Why give all of that up when you’re now in control?
Or we just open AD up for offers on July 1.
You think magic is not even going to offer anything this summer?

and then the Pels go to the Celtics and Knicks and say "The Lakers are offering this, beat it."
That's how negotiations work.
If you don't get the deal still then you wait. You have him under contract another year.
We see who gets desperate first.

Some people really don't... I think the best part about this troll is imploding the Lakers by them publicly offering every single player on their roster without getting a single thing. Im sure all those players are dying to help Lebron lose to GSW week 1 of the playoffs. If they even make it that far.

Consoloation for no AD.
Kyrie or Kemba
Butler or Middleton
Ingram
Lebron
Marc Gasol on a discount to win a ship.
Bench:
Lonzo
Kuzma
Hart
Your 2020 Champs.

Well of course he’s going to offer something. I don’t believe that he would offer more than what is offered now (maybe another player/pick) and probably a bit less if it looks like he is in control.

That offer Magic threw out yesterday was an overpay. We can agree to disagree.
And at that point, if someone is offering more, by definition LAL is not overpaying, so...

if we're being honest, id rather take a lesser deal from Boston just to shove it to Lebron
Well, that'd be a loser move by the Pels, letting emotion override the best business move for them, so that's probably what will happen.

It’d be a shame if Lebron didn’t get his way. Real shame...

We have the asset they want. They don't really have the assets the Pels want, so they'll come to the Pels.

Sorry but in all honesty the only player on the Lakers not named LeBron I'd want is Kuzma, and he's a side piece, not a star player. The Lakers assets really complete dog shite.

thats exactly whats going to happen. even if something happens with the celtics and they dont get involved, the pelicans are absolutely going to take a lesser deal just to shove it to lebron/the lakers because they arent happy about the tampering. its exactly what happened with the lakers and the pacers two years ago

New Orleans Lakers fans are lame

Pels will call Lakers on bluff because that’s what this is.

You are a Lakers fan but not from LA. You are the worst and it’s not close.

Have you guys seen the trades that were made for Paul George, Kyrie, Butler, and Kawhi?
Butler - role players.
Paul George - Sabonis and Oladipo which has worked out awesome for Indiana, but at the time people destroyed them be couldn’t believe Lakers wouldn’t give up more.
Kyrie - Cavs got LOLed, only zizic even on the team.
Kawhi - Spurs did the best by pulling DeRozan, but it was a great situation because the raptors really were choosing between blowing it up or making 1 more run.
All this being said - Why do you think you’re going to beat these offers? Is there a team with a DeRozan that will take the same risk? There is a lot of chest thumping in here for just sticking it to the Lakers. I get it, but history says you are not going to get near what you expect. Turning down all the young talent for hopes that Danny Ainge is gojng to come through is playing with fire. Ainge hasn’t lost a trade yet.

You would think Magic would eventually learn...
