Kinda need KCP in order to make a real trade, if you sniff my drift. I'm good if it's just for trev

I wonder if DeRozan shooting over Hart/KCP over and over again is influencing their desire of this trade.
They don't want LeBron exerting too much effort on defense, Kuz could regress on defense for all we know, so that leaves Ingram as the only guy with size on the wing. Otherwise, it's smaller wings like Hart, KCP and Lance. In the playoffs, they could see Durant, Klay, George, Harris, Gallo, Luka, etc.

I said that about ball during the game but it was all business post game. Can’t fault me for getting mad mid game with mistakes. But at end of game it’s back to “what’s good for the lakers...”

Or rich Paul knows they not trading for AD until supeemax is offered in summer and his client declines it. If so Kcp is irrelevant in trade for him.
Agree with needing taller defender. Remember lance was suppose to be our defensive player to hound others LOL

Lavar? Lavar would say ball is the best pg in league. I’m just saying he may need longer than expected to settle in. That’s not that outlandish

Why can’t we just give up Rondo 
I know it’s a log jam at 2/3 but KCP got benched handled it like a pro didn’t complain accepted his role and now he got himself in a groove off the bench.

I think they're hesitant to give up rondo knowing how hard it is to find a new head coach midseason

Theoretically, Javale-Kuzma-LeBron-Ingram-Ball with Chandler-Ariza-Hart-Rondo is a tough rotation come playoff time. Just wish it had more shooting from Ingram and Ball.

Read how this might be a trade that will eventually lead to a BI, Kuzma, McGee picks for AD trade.

WHo would you like guarding Derozan, Klay, curry, PG, Harden, etc?
KCP or Ariza?
That's your answer

Ariza is not very good. Look at his numbers in the playoffs. I'd rather have KCP because he can catch fire from 3 and that can win games for you. It's gonna be Ingram taking those defensive assignments anyway

i dont mind ariza, he’s a an experienced defender but it’s a lateral move imo. i’d also hate the fact that we’re losing a 94% FT shooter, something the lakers are really bad at. those crucial tech FT’s will be huge come playoff time

Ariza can hit open 3’s don’t forget. I think once he gets back to a winning team he’ll play like he has the last few seasons

He can, but he can also be cold as ice.
Like the start of the year.
I think Ariza is the better defender.
