The Lakers have moved from UNDERDOGS (+1.5) to FAVORITES (-1.5) on opening night against the Timberwolves following the KAT trade 😈

  1. How long til Ant demands to be traded? Hold on to those assets Rob!

    I really don’t understand this trade from the Wolves peespective. I’m assuming this has to be a move to improve financial flexibility and/or they are going to make more trades.

    A Randle and Gobert front court has pretty poor spacing in comparison to KAT and Gobert. The spacing is considerably worse because Randle is an inconsistent three point shooter, which is a massive downgrade from the elite spacing that KAT provides and Gobert obviously does not provide any spacing.

    That front end defense by Wolves got even nuttier.

    ANT/McDaniels/NAW/Divincenzo will put most guards through hell

    Yeah, I don’t like that trade for the Timberwolves, and I’m surprised the Knicks broke up the Nova Knicks after getting Mikal Bridges.

    More importantly, from a Lakers fan perspective, I’ll take the Lakers being favorites for a game and another East team getting stronger for the season.

  5. Ha! Little do they know how Randle kills us, in part because of personal vendetta and in part because we simply don’t have the combination of size and foot speed outside of AD or playoff LBJ to guard him. Rui 1:1 on KAT is fine, Rui 1:1 on Randle is getting absolutely cooked.

    Wolves almost made the finals off the twins towers. Now they might have trouble with a healthy warriors team and they sure as hell can’t see the lakers anymore

  7. The trade favors TWolves imo. Maybe not for opening day, but they’ll be a better team when the playoffs come.

    WE’RE FINALLY WINNING OPENING NIGHT 😭 seriously though that’s the first thing I thought of when this trade went through

    Still a good team overall. Randle may or may not be ready for opening night tho. Their spacing def got worse. Still nice roster.

    Gobert Randle McDaniels Ant Conley

    Knicks made out like bandits. Why cant we pull off trades like this? Only one first rounder that will likely convery as a 2nd.

    Genuinely how does the front office look at LeBron in the eye and tell them this roster is enough?

    tbh i think the wolves see naz reid as a KAT replacement/insurance, wolves have a more well-rounded roster after the trade….

    assuming wolves GM knows something about KAT personally we dont, gonna sound stupid but i never felt KAT has the right attitude to come through when it matters..
