#2, the Houston guys to me, aren’t winners. I like Wood size but that deal doesn’t feel like winners. #3, the Indy deal has some inteiguing guys and the guys NY could add to Randle are intriguing. HOWEVER, I feel like the deal with Indy or NY could be captured for a cheaper price at the Trade deadline, especially with NY. The Indy GM is onery and he can wait because of that pitiful market. NY cant wait and they would move Randle for Russ at Trade deadline if relations and winning isnt happening. it would NOT cost 2 and maybe not even 1 first round pick. I repeat, NO COST. Thats what patience Buys.
I 100% agree with anyone who says Pop liked Kuzma. Yes the Lakers could have done 2 deals with those players for separate packages. Yes they could have done 1 deal and kept some folks. They messed up and what’s done is done. What Magic said today that wasn’t perhaps dollar for dollar right doesn’t matter. Magic has many balls in the air in his life. He comes in ESPN to make TV. If he is the Lakers President with a GM and those young Buss boys, he will definitely be on time and on target about what he DOES more than what he says. I feel like he executed on that last time as well.
Now we talking LT. Playing Chess and that’s exactly what Magic is talking too. Chess behind the scenes while he talks in front of curtain.

#1 , I have major concerns and opposition to trading the 2027 or the 2029 1st round pick
