This just gets better and better

With AD taking his trade kicker, LAL will only have around 23 million in cap space this year., with only 3-4 players under contract..

We very well may end up with more cap space than they have hahaha

I'd laugh my arse off, but that makes zero sense imo.

Why would AD value 5 more million, for just one year, over getting a chance to lock in another max level player?

Same reason why he wanted to leave an up and coming franchise to play with a 34 year old LeBron on one of the worst franchises in the league. He isn’t smart.

They will have 27 million if he waives it, 23.7 if he takes it..

They could have had 32 if he waived it, but Griffin is making them execute the deal before the 30th, so they lose that salary savings from the 4th pick

You know he’s going to do what Lebron tells him to do. He doesn’t make his own decisions. He’s merely a puppet for LBJ and Klutch.

Well, he is losing out on ALOT of money from passing on the supermax, so every penny may count

If we do this deal on the 6th. And AD enforces his trade kicker....





We fricking annihilated the lakers. They would need to trade kuzma, bonga and Wagner to give them enough for a max.


Just wow if this happens.

AD doesn't have the foresight to do a real fake heel turn. He let's others do his thinking for him. And dressing apparently. But if he did? Pels would be a dynasty.

If AD were smart, he wouldn't have tried so hard to get to LA while claiming it was all about winning.

Because it should be obvious by now that winning is not his first or second priority.

Kyrie is going to take 27.5 mil. Pretty sure AD is going to waive the trade kicker
