    For those wondering, no they can’t sign him outright without renouncing basically every free agent besides Reaves and signing minimums, and if Reaves signs an offer sheet they’re screwed

    This would need to be a sign and trade. The most obvious move is a double S + T for D-Lo (grotesque) but if you think Fred can be infuriating to watch him hero ball…woof

    There’s also some combination involving Mo Bamba’s contract but either way it’s a shit sandwich of a return

    One of two things happen:

    Lakers drop Rui to pay Fred 30

    Lakers keep Rui and pay Fred 10.

    Frankly, I don’t see either.

    Kyrie to the raps?! Fuck no! Dude is a mental case and on the decline.

    Their ceiling would be higher with Fred. He’s not going rock the boat like Kyrie would. He’d be able to play like he did when Kyle was still around. He would be the 3rd/4th option on the Lakers.

    Kyrie would be a net loss for the Lakers I think.
