  1. Didn’t a few Lakers reporters say they weren’t interested in Wiggins anymore? Yeah, okay. Like our sub said before, we’re not desperate to move him. 3&D forwards only gain more value as the trade deadline approaches.

    No need to rush.

  2. If Jovic breaks out and Lakers offer a first for Wiggins at the deadline I’m for it. Not worth moving him for just cap relief though with the FA class next year looking pretty bad.

  3. Micky/Pat/Andy are gonna want to see what they have in this team first. From there, we’ll see what the next move is. They will want to see if they have a team that can do something before they move on Wiggins.

  4. We’re clearly holding onto him for a first, if we aren’t getting a first than it makes zero sense to trade him. He’s much better than a salary dump, and rui,gabe, or whatever other player on that lakers roster sans luka do absolutely nothing for us. 

  5. Reads like they want him for free. Can’t really blame them for that mindset when Adam Silver is their shadow GM/”fixer”.

  6. Lakers have zero assets. It’s a 2031 first-round pick and that’s it. I have to believe if we want to trade Wiggins we can find something better

  7. Wiggins is the type of player who is valuable if you’re contending, and valuable if you’re trading him to contenders. He’s also only 30.

    I don’t know why we would trade him before seeing whether we could challenge in a very open Eastern conference.

  8. There is a no real urgency to do this since they cleared up the tax situation .Don’t help out the Lakers like they did the hornets .Learn from the Rozier mistake .

  9. Let the Lakers season sizzle a bit before pulling that trigger. Fair chance that by the time the trade deadline comes they’ll be like a 5th or 6th seed and offer a hail mary style package in hopes that’ll “launch their win rate to the stratosphere” (4th seed)

  10. LA fans are delusional, but to be fair, they did land Luka somehow. Somehow had Ayton as well.

    That being said, we don’t want anything from them, aside from Luka, which ain’t happening.
