IT is going to be disgruntled as hell, not going to work over there like it did here even IF he’s 100%, I can see him going from a starter making the all star team and in the conversation for mvp while breaking down barriers for small guards to pretty much going back to what he was in Phoenix and I don’t see him being ok with that
soon as Ingram bring the 3% up, he's going make a leap. I'm curious to see how that situation plays out next summer. Will they flip for more ready pieces just to compete for like 2 years with LeBron. If they win 30-35 games, I think it's no brainer for LeBron to go there, I also think it's a no brainer for Lakers to say no

sad situation because Lakers been in the bottom so long, Jeanie and Magic gon be desperate for a star to sell season tix holders smh. but for development purposes, it would make more sense to throw money at Boogie or even a less talented max player like DJ this summer to allow Kuz and Ingram to flourish on the wing with Lonzo running the offense.
LeBron takes the ball outta Lonzo hands and stunts Ingram development immediately out on the wing

Bron the latest star everyone swears will end up with the Lakers only to be disappointed in the end, those days are over, he’ll go play with Giannis before he goes and plays with Zo

It looks like Ingram is finally using his tools.
He always played timid to me which would force to pull up instead of getting all the way to the cup. Or he'd get all the way to the rim and go up weak and get his shot blocked.
He's finally getting to the rim and using his length to finish over his defender. He was blowing by everyone on Memphis for easy points.
I think seeing Kuz dominate on a damn near nightly basis forced him to step his game up.

Harden be doing the fool when he focused. That shit is ridiculous
Who's to say? Teams break up? Injuries happen? Klay in a contract year next season, Draymond the year after. You gotta pay KD this summer. All depends on the FO plan and motivations
LeBron with this Lakers team today is better than that Cavs team...and thats with Zo not figuring it out yet. BI starting to come on, Kuzma only 8 games in and already I can't think of a player to come in with his skill level in recent memory
I wouldn't but then again, it would depend on what young talent I have to part with...just Randle and maybe Clarkson....on 2nd thought, a LeBron rental for 2-3 years wouldn't be bad...even not winning, the experience for Zo, BI, Kuz is probably worth it
If I'm Lakers nones getting a deal longer than 3 years though
lol I just changed my mind mid thought

Idk bout all that. 1st issue is that young players never develop well under Bron. 2nd issue is not the years that you have Bron, its what happens when he leaves, and when Bron leaves, he leaves teams with terrible contracts and it takes them a few seasons to recover.
Idk if im doing all that if im a young team with very talented people in developing.
If im a team that already has a good core and a star, I would go all in on Bron though.

i think with the lakers getting kuzma in the draft -- that the likelihood of them moving ingram to dump deng becomes more realistic — kuzma is the advanced version of what they want from ingram — ingram can get there in time but magic dont want to go a decade without a playoff
nobody taking on dengs deal and ruining their cap til 2020 for
clarkson
randle
nance

Just curious who are y'all picks to come out the East?
League sources indicate the Chicago Bulls and Atlanta Hawks are the most likely destinations for Okafor. But the Sixers are still holding out for at least a Draft pick, and could still opt to keep Okafor either as insurance against further injury to Embiid, or as a potential expiring contract to aggregate as the trade deadline nears. –
