  1. Zach Lowe said as much yesterday. said it’d be a net negative if Reaves had to be included in a Lavine deal

  2. Constant moves and trades just means a team never gels. Lakers impatience is there biggest problem.

  3. Reaves is so bad. At least Lavine gives you a little more offense. Both suck defensively but at least Lavine gives you a little more size and athleticism.

  4. Idk if watching the Lakers you think damn if they had a Zach LaVine they would be right up there to contend. I think they have a bunch of problems that Zach won’t fix.

  5. if i was the lakers id want caruso instead of lavine. lakers have two stars they just need to fill out the rest of the roster with quality role players. im not saying no 3rd star would work in la but when you have anthony “day to day” davis and an aging Lebron do you want your 3rd star to be a guy who has chronic knee issues?

    I also just find lavine to be a good stats bad team guy.

  6. For the love of god we can hit pause on all this until January. Lakers can’t trade shit right now.

  7. I assume the Lakers’ offer would have to be something like DLo, Rui, and something like Prince or Vincent if they needed more money to make up the difference. On top of whatever picks they’d be giving up.

  8. I heard KD and Beal are available. Let’s throw that rumor up with Lakers in the title for them too.

    Maybe the Spurs will trade the Lakers Wemby too?

  9. I don’t think there’s gonna be much of a market for Lavine. I kind of like the Magic for him if it doesn’t take much. They need shooting, have expiring contacts to send out, and have very little long term money committed.

  10. This is like Russell Westbrook 2.0 type shit. Okay my last post on this, I can’t believe this is a rumor.

  11. Of course not. Why do that when I was able to ESPN trade machine them Poeltl and Chris Paul?

  12. So in typical laker fashion they’d like the bulls to give them Zach for hardly nothing because you know LA

  13. One unprotected pick and expirings is enough for Lavine? Can’t see the bulls doing that and having to take on rui’s contract
