"The Los Angeles Lakers and Brooklyn Nets are actively engaged in trade discussions centered on a Russell Westbrook-Kyrie Irving package, league sources tell
@YahooSports"
Poor Manny :lol
Both teams are doomed.
LA remains a shit show! :roll:
I, for one, am looking forward to the Brick City era, courtesy of Westbrook and Simmons.
:cheers:
Imagine giving a max to Kyrie Irving when LeFatherFigure only has one more year left :lol

A team with AD, Kyrie, and Bron will score a lot.
All 3 players' games fit

Will they play 100 games between them? Will the earth remain flat?
Oh, so now the bron stans are back to loving Kyrie again :roll::roll::roll::roll::roll:
Why poor manny?
You told him all that Kyrie was absolute cancer?
Kyrie also won't come cheap
Bran stans excited daddy Kyrie can bail him out in the clutch again ala 2016:yaohappy:
No shame:yaohappy:
[QUOTE=Xiao Yao You;14632827]LA remains a shit show! :roll:[/QUOTE]
ummmm what? :oldlol:
Kyrie:
Helped Bron achieve GOAT status.
Destroyed KD's legacy.
Apologized to Bron and desperate to come play with Bron in LA.
Of course we love Kyrie.

Can't argue with that.
Brooklyn about to offload cancer for some killer assets :applause:
Brooklyn don’t want Westbrook
[QUOTE=kawhileonard2;14632848]Brooklyn don’t want Westbrook[/QUOTE]
Exactly.
Needs to be a third team involved...Lakers don't have enough assets to ship with Brick
Bron haters on full meltdown mode.
[QUOTE=kawhileonard2;14632848]Brooklyn don’t want Westbrook[/QUOTE]
they have no choice lol. kyrie has made it clear he's going to lal asap. no one is trading for a 1 yr rental, let alone a 1 yr rental that might decide to not even play for you. bkn knows they have no leverage whatsoever. the holdup up reportedly is bkn wants harris' contract packaged with ky and lal wants curry.
another miserable season incoming for legoat haters.
[QUOTE=Spurs m8;14632850]Exactly.

They do if they take back Harris...apparently that is what the Nets are insisting on.
But it isn't like there is a market for a one year rental of Kyrie in the league. Almost everyone would pass giving up something of value for that.
It is crazy, but this trade needs to happen. Russ and a pick for Kyrie / Harris seems good, but if I was the Lakers, I'd be trying to get Royce as well.

what would they do with Royce? He actually suits up every night

They become a top contender immediately if they lose WB and get Kyrie.
legoat about to lead the lg in assists again...at 38 yrs old.
[QUOTE=hold this L;14632865]They become a top contender immediately if they lose WB and get Kyrie.[/QUOTE]
Seriously? Lebron has been hurt for 4 years. Davis has never been healthy. Kyrie is who he is. Might be better than last year but they are a year older and the west is better after taking a step back last year. Play-in or bust for the 3rd straight year in LA! :cheers:

Lol I can't wait for the championship cruise threads...and the sinking of it...
People forgetting they're gonna be 7 years past 2016, there's no D, AD is injured and Monk isn't there to help the bail out.
Could somehow be even funnier than last season

You gotta be delusional to think BKY is giving you Curry and Kyrie for the worst contract (literally) in the NBA.

If they literally just remove WB from the team, they probably are a play-in team alone this season. Adding a top level PG even if it's a total dipshit like Kyrie would improve them big time. But yeah, their injury history is a massive question mark. If they're not healthy during the PS, nothing will matter.

who's carrying the team while Davis and Lebron watch from the sidelines again?

It's an expiring contract...that has value, especially when all your draft picks are in Houston.
I read johnny32s post for sheer lols
The funniest part is its not a satire account
Lmao good luck
Lol they're starting to panic.
So apparently the Lakers don't want Joe Harris and are asking for Seth Curry instead... the absolute balls... lmao.
Imagine... Westbrook + THT for Kyrie, Harris AND Seth... saves the Nets money for the next 2 seasons.
Jokes aside... the Lakers shouldn't **** around with this. Kyrie is an expiring deal and while no team may want him other than the Lakers, that could change at any moment with someone deciding... "**** it... he's on an expiring deal, let's roll the dice" because they sure as shit aren't getting a deal like this for Westbrook to come around again.
Maybe test the water to try to maximize for a day but I'm pulling that trigger sooner than later.

Westbrook has a better contract than Bradley Beal because it's expiring.
Westbrook is going to look a lot better on a team where he dominates the **** out of the ball and he doesn't have the national media attention on him for every single regular season game.
That being said, I have no idea how he co-exists with Simmons... none. What an absolute shitshow that is going to be.
If Westbrook handles the ball... what the **** is Simmons doing on the court offensively? If Simmons handles the ball, Westbrook will look like shit again.

What value does it dummy? Kyrie and Brick both have expiring contracts. If they make a deal where Curry and Kyrie go Lakers for Brick and some late, garbage fillers.. I can imagine Silver and Lebron must have a gun locked in Nets FO's heads. Because that makes absolutely zero sense.
[QUOTE=Shogon;14632885]Westbrook has a better contract than Bradley Beal because it's expiring.

No, that's fair. Beal due to length is definitely the worst in the league. But I agree with you, having two ball dominant players who can't shoot makes no sense. Again if this deal is made, there was must be some shit happening at the background, because it makes no sense.
The nets may straight up buyout westbrook like Hou did with wall, I don’t think they care that much about being competitive. The offer seems bad but the lakers are the only ones offering a frp. The nets want to give up harris because he has long term money and is negative value coming off an injury but I would give up curry too if it meant getting 2 frps some seconds and a swap or 2.
