    I mean, there is no other possible explanation right? I’m a life long Lakers fan and this makes no sense.

        I think if they were the same age you could argue defense blah blah blah. But they’re not lol.

        Christie and what will probably be a late first round pick? Like you guys don’t want nothing else? Is this a prank lol? Ok

          But he’s a free agent after next season. If they wait until next season to trade him on an expiring, they will get nothing back like Raptors got nothing for Siakam.

            No dude, just no.

            Luca is a 25y perennial MVP candidate and hasn’t even peaked probably. I’m pretty sure every team in the league would be in a bidding war if they knew he was available, even next year.
