No shite.

The Kuzma stuff is DEFINITELY coming from the Pels imo

How much of this shite is Rich Paul leaking info under the mistaken assumption he is helping the Lakers get AD cheaply?

It’s hilarious to me that anyone would actually buy that Kuzma is the missing piece

The LA Times’ sportswriters are convinced he is the most valued asset to us. Which makes me wonder who is feeding them this shite.

What's more hilarious is that Lakers fans are like "damn right, I don't want to lose Kuz", like he's some big 'win'.

That's great. Just add him to the list of the other players in Purple and Gold we don't want. #nolakerstrade

I still believe all this Lakers talk is just hot air. Their assets are all garbage. They were in Feb and they are even worse now that we have seen them totally implode in their ill fated playoff run.

If they do deal with LA I don't want any of those players. Move them for other assets but for fricks sake don't bring them here, especially the Ball shite show.

I think a healthy Ingram is a great piece.

The Lakers are under pressure because they don't want to deal with another wasted year of LeBron (who clearly won't be happy); especially with young teammates he's already thrown under the bus. Plus there is no guarantee the Lakers get AD in free agency in 2020 because they could have imploded by then and LeBron might force his way out.

Not sure I get the Lakers' playing hard-to-get at this point. They should be scrambling to find teams to facilitate a three-way deal. But Jeannie Bus and Rob Pelinka don't strike me as the sharpest knives in the drawer.

Pelinka’s a liar and Jeannie’s an idiot.

I hear ya, but I still get Eric Gordon flash backs about players that are good/great/special when healthy.

Lonzo is the best player in the package. It's become cool to hate him because of the hype and his Dad, but their team was so much worse without him. He also could continue to improve as a shooter. Ingram could be good, but his health is a huge red flag. Kuzma is probably going to be the same player in a few years. He's already older, and he's likely going to be a guy who scores but doesn't rebound super well and can't defend.

ETA: I feel like the Lakers package depends entirely on how you feel those guys respond to being traded to New Orleans and if you love Garland/Culver/etc enough at 4 to make it worth it.

Either Pelinka or Rich Paul. Clearly not us.

I really don't think the Lakers spread that. I don't know what they gain from it. I believe that the Lakers would give Ingram, Lonzo, Kuz, and 4 in a heartbeat, but I don't think Griff wants that.
