    Davis is always in the mvp convo. Now he’s with Lebron. This is Lebrons best teammate he’s ever had. Don’t take Anthony Davis lightly. This is like KD and Curry pairing up

    Only way we can compete. Dmorey has experience against a super team. He must use his prior knowledge to this one

    lebron is basically the largest guard in the league. don't kid yourself. this hurts us ALOT.

    clutch no offense but you're being delusional. lebron is NOTHING like CP3, the only thing similar is the age. body's and physical condition are worlds apart. Lebrons decline and effectiveness is nothing like Cp3.

    Did you hear that ya'll? It was our window SLAMMING shut after briefly being open due to KD/Klay injuries.

    All this thing around the Davis to L.A we got over the last months really stinks.

    Davis hires Lebron's dude...asks for a trade to the Lakers...Lakers don't have the best assets but somehow they get a top pick in the draft...

    Rockets keep getting the fake version of the stars that other teams land.

    Lakers trade for AD.
    The Rockets sign DD-- Deyonta Davis.

    Started all the way back when they signed Marcus Cousin after failing to trade for DeMarcus Cousins.

    No, I meant Jimmy + DJ to the Lakers. They could have up to $32.5 mil in room once the trade is completed.

    This just about closes our window. Our coach isn't good enough to overcome the talent gap. It was a nice ride. I appreciate Morey going all in against GSW when they were at their prime.

    Lakers are now the favorites in the West...pray the Clippers don’t have a good summer or we’re definitely behind them 2

    yeah, unless Morey pulls something out his ass, we’re done out here...Harden, even worse CP0, and the usual limited role players isn’t gonna do anything

    They gave up 2 #2 picks a 4 pick + 2 1st rounders. They gave up a lot.

    After Davis trade, Add 43 more million to steal other team players, Lakers are much better team than rockets.
    Maybe they want Paul and 3 rockets unprotected picks.

    Morey would really have to pull something amazing. We have no real assets outside of our best player and we are broke! Not to mention we have a coach that doesn't coach lol.

    True. LBJ/AD has a higher ceiling than Harden/CP0
