WOJBOMB: Anthony Davis to Lakers

[bigkingsfan]

Only way this backfires is if AD gets injured. Three year window

[Duderonomy]

Lakers should get like 3 good roles players with their cap room Danny Green, Patrick Beverly, and Jordan (if the price is right)

[Doranku]

Hart and Ball were legit the only two players I liked on this team.
Hope I'm wrong about AD and he isn't just a stat stuffing loser that disappears in critical moments.

But there is no wa you would rather have Hart and Ball than a top 5 player. Come on.

I love this simply for how mad it has all these smucks right now. Supah team = getting an allstar running mate.

It's more than just that, though. Ingram is gone (happy about that tho, **** that guy), but more importantly we pulled a Brooklyn Nets and mortgaged our future to win now.

Hope it works better for us than it did them...

[D-Wait]

LOL @ losing Ingram and Lonzo = gutting your team

When your team is THAT bad

Lakers fans must have grown so attached to Ingram and Lonzo riding the injury reserve 35 games a season

This. People in this thread act like Lonzo and Ingram are perennial all-stars

They kept their best young player, Kyle Kuzma!

The Lakers definitely won this deal.

With Durant and Klay's injury, they have a real shot to win a championship this season...

I think it's a gamble because they're going all in in the short term. But after Kd and Klay went down, wouldn't you have done this? It's the only move to make. The biggest obstacle is gone and there's a clear shot at the title. The only competition out west is a rockets team reeling from their collapse in games 5 and 6 and actively shopping their players. The best team in the east isnt going to be as good as the Lakers.

Let's see how it plays out. If it doesn't work out, then your trepidation will have been justified. If they can get a title here, none of those picks will matter. It will all have been worth it. This is the time to strike. While GS is down.

U should be happy your lakers will be in championship mix for next few years at least.

Don't really think it's win now only. Davis is only 26.

[Doranku]

If we're able to get Kemba or another all-star in free agency, then I'll feel a lot better. Just don't think LeBron, AD, and a bunch of journeymen/mercenaries are enough to get it done even without Klay and KD in the mix.

[Bankaii]

You act like y'all traded budding Superstars for a couple years of a vet's prime.
AD is a borderline superstar and only 26, and actually wants to be there. Even without Lebron in the future they'll be straight.

Besides, out of Ingram, Ball, Hart, and whoever the 4th pick is, none of them will ever be better overall than AD or Kuz.

[Mr Feeny]

Don't really think it's win now only. Davis is only 26.

But lebron is getting older. He will be 36 midway through the 2021 season which is when KD and Klay should be back. That would be trickier to win. The window is short in my opinion. It's this year. And they're going all in.

Nets traded for a 36 and 37 yr old. Why are you acting like it's the same thing?

WOW.

You guys just got Anthony Davis.

Lonzo and Hart are freaking role players and it's not like Ingram is the next Durant.

Do you want to win a championship with Lebron, AD and another FA? (Especially when there's a real shot to win because of Golden State's injuries)

Or do you want to waste what's left of Lebron's career with some young guys and another rookie around him???
