    So, looks like we can add Rodney Hood to the final tally of the Kyrie trade.

    BKN #1
    Hood
    Nance
    Clarkson

    Am I missing something?

    Now, maybe I'm a bit biased, but why on earth would CP3 leave a (on track to be) 60+ win team?

    LeBron + PG-13 + CP3 would win the title, even on the lakers.

    Wait...since the Cavs got Hood and Hill was this really a good trade if you think about it?

    Isiah COULD eventually return to his previous form, not really sure he was the problem but more that paired with all those other old players his defense left a lot to be desired...

    But I dunno, I think looking at their team now I'd rather have Thomas over Clarkson and Nance.

    We'd have to dump Anderson tho, hope nobody throws too much at Clint, hope CP3 doesn't demand the Max, and hope LeBron doesn't demand the max.

    Lakers could just sign two of the 3 to max deals right now, and if they attach Ingram/Kuzma+others and manage to dump Deng, they could give out 3 30 million dollar contracts.

    This is not gonna end well. I'm sure Ball is as adamant that he should be starting, though he's probably one of the few PGs who IT is actually better than overall. Will be interesting to see how they manage this.

    IT hasn't even arrived in LA and there's already chaos and drama.
    It will be a straight circus there
