https://tv5.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/26981805/lakers-reach-deal-pelicans-davisLAKERS get Davis .......... PELICANS get Lonzo Ball, Brandon Ingram, Josh Hart & three first-round picks, including the fourth overall pick in the upcoming draft.
** The LAKERS true GM Lebron James got what he wants ............ he even had his attack dog, Rich Paul warn the CELTICS that Davis will only be a 1-year rental, should they trade for him.
** Nice haul for the PELICANS, but this is the kind of trade that a Popovich/Buford won't make ........... Popovich/Buford will wait it out and try their best to send their player to the EAST rather than strengthen a rival in the WEST (like what they did with Kawhi).
The PELICANS did not make the playoffs this season. Neither did the the LAKERS, KINGS & TWOLVES (and MAVERICKS & GRIZZLIES).
Because of the trade, the LAKERS got stronger & will likely make the playoffs now (projected 1-4 spot) ............ KINGS are improving, while the MAVERICKS will have a healthy Porzingis.
The PELICANS just ensured that they won't make the playoffs again this upcoming new season.
** Either natakot sobra ang CELTICS sa banta ni Rich Paul .......... or na-karma sila sa ginawa nila kay Isaiah Thomas a few seasons ago. It's probably both.
** Everybody is waiting for that next Lavar Ball interview.
