I have interest in Alexandra Daddario and Sydney Sweeney if one of them become available as well.
<insert comment about me being interested in an attractive celebrity here>
If I’m the wizards I would dump beal for Westbrook straight up just to get out of that contract.
bruh
Lol.
I wonder if the Lakers front office or the Lakers fanbase are more delusional with these trade ideas
In the super ultimate pie-even-higher-in-the-sky scenario, the Lakers have interest in obtaining all three stars.
They would be willing to part with Lonnie Walker to make this work, sources say
This sub acts like the Bradley beal contract is the worst contract of all time when it’s still a positive asset
Get this paywall bullshit outta here
At this point, it would be legitimately insulting to watch the Lakers land someone like that. You do not deserve to run a team’s present and future into the ground like that and still have stars fall into your lap.
I have interest in Scarlett Johansson, Anne Hathaway, and Aubrey Plaza.
oh no the Lakers are interested in the best players in the league
Lakers just depend on other disgruntled stars making trade demands. If they didn’t have any desirable weather and real estate with attractive nightlife, they would be another shitty run organization.
Ok Buha
They don’t have the assets to land any of those players.
LOL
Never listen or post Buha
He’s not an insider he’s a clown
Wow the lakers scouting team is top notch. They really did their homework to find some hidden gems such as Kevin Durant.
KD and Dame are absurd to even consider unless they’re trading ad or Bron.
Beal is a little more realistic, but Washington has done everything to keep him there. Have to assume he’s asking out if they’re going to trade him.
Davis, Lebrón, and Dame combo is quite lethal.
Of this list of stars, I think they might actually be able to land McDermott.
The 30 year old, 6’6, SF, former lottery pick, averaging 10.5 points, 1.9 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 0.2 blocks, and 0.1 steals per game for the Spurs would also definitely vault them into league favorites.
IF, and this is a big IF, they somehow land McDermott, I think it’s just a matter of keeping the Big 3 of Lebron, AD, and Doug healthy.
“I am not interested in Kevin Durant, Damian Lillard, or Bradley Beal.”
– No NBA GM ever in the history of mankind
I want Kevin Durant
– all 30 teams 😴
lmfao
Them and nearly everybody else. Good to see the brain trust of the lakers are still completely delusional.
What a pointless article. 30 teams have interest in one of these players if they were to become available. If a front office didn’t at least try to act on it they should be fired.
i’m interested in trading richaun holmes for deandre ayton
I feel like Buha only reports on the Lakers to make people hate Lakers fans. Dude posts some wild ass shit all the time.
I wish we could get some real trade news instead of this bullshit.
In other news, the front office is in their ass again
This sub will say Bradley Beal has the worst contract in the league and say the Wizards are the most doomed team in the league for having in, and at the same time act like trading a couple of firsts and expiring contract for him would be unfathomable.
Can’t have it both ways.
embarrassing someone would even report this.
Blazers fans: “how many times do we have to teach you this less old man?”
This is the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard which means it will definitely happen.
I personally would love to travel back in time and yank prime Jordan out of the 90s and add him to the current day Knicks, but, sadly….
Lol
Lol dame has a better team than the lakers currently in Portland
So does that mean LeBron and AD are on the block?
Bruh why even say this out loud. It’s honestly embarrassing and down right lame.
Worst part of being a Lakers fan is these constantly ludicrous headlines
Simons and Grant for AD
Lakers: hey guys we would like all the best players in the league please
How?
Like it’s been said to death but the Lakers barely have any trade assets, not enough to trade for any of them.
So how are they going to make any of these hypothetical moves?
The media’s brain is shot and instead of talking about the rest of the league which has been great their in a fantasy world were the Lakers can just acquire a bunch of all-stars somehow.
The lakers just simply can’t keep it in their pants
So does every other team…
