the Laker Brass dropped the ball by not acquiring KD? I know health is everything, but can you imagine him with LBJ and AD?
Ya wonder if

The Lakers never had the trading chips to get KD. Only stars we have a shot at all have major issues. Age, durability, no defense, ball dominant, problem child.
Best shot would be for a superstar who hasn’t worked out whom the Lakers can rehabilitate. Oh, wait, we tried that with Westbrook.
Why am I thinking we’re going to get Zach LaVine without giving up too much in 3 for 1 trade with a goal to do with him what we’ve done with Monk, Schroder, Wood, Reddish, etc?
Truth is, LaVine might be a good candidate for a move to the Lakers. Health risk is one reason why he could be had for probably what amounts to just our 2029 FRP with light protection.
Would rather give that to get Myles Turner and double down on size and dominating PIP and MFT than trying to get guards who can score but can’t defend. Start Cam and Vando to defend opposing backcourt. Then LeBron guard front court player like we want. Yet, we get a huge backcourt with 3 6′ 8″ players. That would be a killer defensive and offensive team that would dominate PIP and MFT.
I know, but KD is a 3 shooter, but he’s not ours.
