Interesting...so no snt with Portland but instead dump Ariza and Jones on Philly for nothing? Or is it more like Dmo, Prigs, Papa, Ariza to the Blazers for LMA and Jones for a pick to create more space? I'd be A ok with LMA and a resigned Smith and losing DMo and Jones.
not exactly sure but it is really bad to be going from a WCF team to a lotto team in the East that has no aspirations to win games.

Probably Morey covering all his bases. I can't imagine we're more than token consideration at this point. Most likely as backup plan in case Spurs do something stupid or something fall apart.

Lakers' media is doing themselves a disservice. You think next year's big time FAs want to be run through their ringer if they don't select the 'prestigious Lakers'. The franchise and Kobe deserve each other right now - they have no idea when to stop relying on their past achievements. OMG MAGIC KAREEM WORTHY! Who cares? Also, can somebody PLEASE tweet back at the guy declaring that the Lakers never really left, and that LMA's interest was a sign of that?
What is this? Is he a High School senior? Is he going to use emojiis to show us all who his top three teams are?

Even if we don't get LMA I'm REALLY interested to see what plan/deals Morey had in place to get Aldridge here.
