    Dominique managed an Achilles' injury and came back strong but it didn't last long. Not necessarily because of the Achilles

    Didn't Kobe also come back from an Achilles injury? Not that anyone is as insane as Kobe is.

    He came back but his scoring averages were consistently lower after the injury.

    Kobe was older but also not 7 feet tall

    The New Orleans Pelicans have agreed to a deal to trade Anthony Davis to the Los Angeles Lakers for Lonzo Ball, Brandon Ingram, Josh Hart, and three first-round picks -- including the No. 4 overall selection in next week's draft, league sources tell ESPN.

    Bron - AD - Kyrie could be interesting. Or Bron - AD - Kemba. Or Bron - AD - Butler.

    So in the end they dont need to include Kuzma?

    That's an easy yes for the Lakers.

    So the most important thing

    Has anyone got Lavar Ball’s opinion on this yet?

    Remember when people were like, "OMG what are the Pelicans thinking there's no way they can do better than the entire Lakers roster of dumpster fire trash players?!?!"

    How about not taking on bad salary and just straight up taking better first round draft picks instead?

    Still going to be tough to fill the roster out with so few picks left. At this rate they'll be trading a 2027 pick for a backup point guard

    Kemba, AD and LeBron is a ridiculously exciting trio of players to have on the same team

    And at least one of them still gives a shit about defense for now!

    Also is it possible within the known constraints of the universe to put Jim Butts on a roster that has/recently had Rondo, Beasley, JaVale and Lance?

    Lakers kinda have to swing now. Lebron's not getting younger, and the team that's won the conference for the past half decade is down at least two of its best players for most of the year. If they don't sign Lebron last year, it's...a different story, but if you have Lebron, you kinda can't build for the future, anymore. You gotta go for it.

    Kemba is a good player and a fantastic human being but I believe he's just too much of a defensive liability to ever be worth taking at his perceived value on the market. He puts in a ton of effort but literally everyone just shoots over him.

    I’m personally glad I don’t have to deal without Lavar for a long time.

    When Lonzo was at UCLA one of my jobs was the “Lavar Beat”, which was chronicling things he said to the media because they got a ton of page clicks. It was certainly an experience.

    Christ, i hadn’t thought about that. Why would any team want Lavar anywhere near their young impressionable players.

    Durant and Klay's injuries opened up the Western Conference to the field next season. Lakers are shooting their shot.
