The Lakers package was good, really good. It was a Godfather level good. We won't get a better offer.

Riddle me this, if Davis played for them the second half of the season, do you really think that they would end up with a better pick than Boston or the Grizzlies?
Well I just promised someone that I wouldn't do anything crazy or say anything too outlandish. So, I'll just say, I don't know..

It seems like the thing this guy is not factoring in is their next contract.
I mean, Kuzma and Ingram are okay. And on the contracts they have now, they are fine. But imagine having to give them 4/80 or even more. Now, all of a sudden they are negative assets. Or, you have to let them go.
So, you are trading AD for guys who will either soon be negative assets or be gone. Maybe if he understood that, he would understand why most Pelicans fans would hate the deal.

Yeah. It seems like one of this guys main arguments is that two pretty good guys is better than having one really good guy (Tatum). Which I disagree with, but whatever.
But if we put contracts in the mix and say: Would you rather have Tatum on a 4 year/100 million dollar deal or Ingram and Kuzma, both on 4/80?
I'd rather have Tatum and $15 mil in cap room, personally. Once you start talking about next contracts, you see why the Lakers deal is trash. Either you overpay the guys or you lose them. Both are bad.
