Indeed.

So, why in GAWDS NAME would they want Beverley and Walker?

Kyrie, Seth, Patty, Bev and Walker….lol

Maybe Bev can play back up Center.

Seth would be a great compliment to Lebron.

They can have Walker and Jones for Seth (plus seconds)? Gives them a different style of wing in Walker and a depth big (that has for some reason cratered on Ham's bench). I don't know, the Nets rumors didn't really have targets noted that I saw.

They need size

They can trade Harris, but they need some size back

All the Lakers have is Jones and his min contract to offer then. Like I thought, not much of an opportunity for LA.

The Nets want help.

Not 2 more small guards.

They need a backup center as bad as the Clippers.

Please don’t say Jones.

They need one that’s actually still a decent player.
Bev, Bryant and a 2nd.

This is the shit you do that’s annoying.

Why would the Lakers trade Bryant?

He is your only playable Center while AD is on a minutes restriction.

He’s dirt cheap and is out playing his contract 10 fold.

Stop being desperate for a overpriced player.

Stop trying to make the money work using a player the Nets, who are trying to win a Championship, don’t want nor need.

If you want a overpriced guy that might hit a few shots, just go get Fournier.

The Knicks would probably consider your trash offers just to get off that contract.

I give you credit though.

Because, this deal actually favors THE OTHER TEAM, for once.

It would be retarded for the Lakers.

There are easier gets than Harris where they wouldn’t give away their only fully functioning big.

There are functional big men like favors and whiteside basically freely available

The only issue with Bryant is whether they can resign him this summer, one of the reasons I still like the oft-rumored Pacers deal. Much like Walker, it might be smart to move these guys for players with Bird rights. If the Lakers can hold enough cap space open for Bryant, they should keep him though.

Harris is the sniper we need....

Get Hield from the Pacers. He's likely still available, even if Turner isn't.

Harris is making fewer 3s per game than Royce O'Neal on his own team (1.9/game). Buddy's making twice that at a higher percentage. Hield's remaining year is actually a bit cheaper too.

Oh, I agree.

@DJ is suggesting you trade him for Joe Harris.

Not Turner and Heild…

Not Poetl….

Joe Harris.

How does that make sense?

Harris eats up the rest of your Cap after Rui.

I'd actually argue moving Beverly and Walker for Harris makes the Lakers worse.
