I would say Lavine does not feel like he fills a different roll than Herro. He may be better, but he creates the same logjam.

I always think LaVine is capable of playing the wing when in reality he can’t. But also if the Nets are giving up assets, they have some wings to throw in but nothing remotely close to LaVine talent

Lonzo should be blaming Lamar for his career being over....if it is and looks like it will be.

Shitty shoes and some of his workout methods putting stress on his knees....

Honestly, I think this could be bigger than a 3-team. This could be a 4-team trade

You don't think it had anything to do with it not being too sound a business plan to commit a combined $60 million a year to two wing players when your franchise player as it is plays point?

With him? As quickly as they came out after the playoffs and said they won't re-sign him?

No.

Maybe they would have decided not to bring him back anyway...but I'm not sure he had even made it back to the locker room before they said he wouldn't be back.

This is a pretty stupid take

Lavine can't play at the 3. Lavine would crowd Scoot, Simons, Sharpe, Johnson at 2. Depending on how often Scoot plays at 1, the need a PG, Center, Sf. In that order I think.

Thay trade adds 2 of those, but the main piece is a poor fit.

Utah has the players and picks to give Portland a nice return....may not be a title contender with Dame, Mark and Kessler but Ainge could build a solid playoff team there.

Dame played his college ball at Weber State in UT and really enjoyed it there.
