LeBron had dinner with Davis last night. I don't know who he thinks he is or what he can actually accomplish here. The Lakers have mostly junk to trade back: no high firsts and busts like Lonzo and Ingram. I'm not sure why it's appealing to team up with LeBron at this point anyway. He's old. Every year that goes by the bullshit headaches of playing with this guy will be less and less worth the trade off. LeBron and AD still don't beat the warriors.

Lonzo is good. Ingram can be in the right situation.

I think you misunderstood my post.

He's not a bust, he's good. Of course they would need more than him and other random pieces to get Davis.

What's good about him? I guess he can defend and make good outlet passes.

Probably be hoping KD leaves and that the Lakers get another guy? I'm with you that the Lakers don't have as much to offer as everybody acts like they do (though "bust" is too strong a term for both of those guys), but why wouldn't LeBron want AD? He's probably selling him an aging Kareem transitioning to Magic kind of thing.

The one time LeBron had legit teammates he went to 4 finals and won 2 of them. The other years he dragged a bunch of nobodies to the playoffs and won another championship. Now he has the “no way in hell playoffs” Lakers in line for a 4-seed. What kind of fool wouldn’t want to play with LeBron? Only someone selfish who only cares about his own numbers. Davis is perfect fit. Add a dangerous shooter to that mix (Klay??) in a couple years = two more rings.

Kyrie is legit.

Also, Klay is staying with the Warriors.

He's washed. Sixers have no depth and Jim is bound to get hurt eventually.

I got down voted like crazy today on the Bulls Reddit page for trying to tell some idiots that Zach Lavine isn't even close to an all star this season.
