    So the Lakers don't want to include the 2027 FRP in a deadline trade because they want to be able to attach an additional pick with a deal this summer? That's still not going to be enough to get Lillard, but maybe Beal? Seems like a pretty bold gamble, and it's basically conceding this season.

    IDK if a Russ + unprotected picks in 27 and 29 is going to be competitive with some of the other trade packages out there. I guess someone could force their way there.

    I was laughing out loud about that.....and of course Vogel doesn't see eye to eye....Vogel is trying to win.

    If this deal was going to happen...it would have been done already.

    I do think Westbrook and the LAL 27 1st Rounder gets move by tomorrow...but it won't be with the Rockets!

    The prodigal son returns.....and immediately is bought out. This happens and Gordon is traded to the Suns for a handshake and 10 Valley booker jerseys would be amazing.

    That’s about as far as you will see an nba coach go in a comment.

    LeGM is gonna have a long night thinking if he should go all in for John wall or waste another season of his career.

    Either way he ain't winning it all.
