It's official A.D. to Lakers [MERGED] (1 Viewer)

[Dago]

Chicago and Phoenix were expressing massive interest in Ball before this trade.

I am betting that Griffin already has other trades agreed to

This is a shirt trade

What was the better trade to take? The market never did seem to materialize and the Lakers seemed to only be competing against themselves.

not really, the pels are not done yet. LA is stuck with Davis and a 35 year old James next year and we control their draft for 7 years

Exactly. We traded a player who we would have for 1 more year for a very good young player in Ingram, a talented young player with potential in Ball, a solid role player in Hart, 3 1st round picks and pick swaps. If this trade wasn’t with the hated Lakers, it would be applauded by everyone. And that’s all considering the haul is done. I think there are more dominoes to fall.

Maybe not if Gentry has his way?
