Are the Lakers offering or planning to trade Lonzo for Kawhi? Otherwise having Lonzo and Rondo makes zero sense. He won't mentor him, he might bring some championship experience and toughness, but nothing that LeBron himself is not bringing. Either LAL are scrambling for assets to have or they are simply trying to have something surrounding LeBron.
Can't be mad at Cousins. His chance at big bucks was closed this summer, so why not go and take a title discount. Him joining Warriors helps LeBron quite a bit. He can't be expected to beat them, plus everyone in that Warriors team will have difficult to measure up against LeBron or Jordan, when there is a goat discussion after GSW (Durant/Curry) reaches title number 5. Cousins likes having accomplishments without doing anything. The one time his team played in tje playoffs... he was injered and the team played better withoet him.
Not sure what Pelicans are doing. Rondo seemed to fit well there. Might've simply been that Lakers offer was more interesting for him.
Wizards are still being idiots. I get removing Gortat from their lineup, but they still don't have a starting center, didn't draft one, haven't chased for one... Maybe D12 is bound to end up there and show Wall that Gortat wasn't half as bad? No way Howard is joining Lakers, Warriors already said they want nothing + they have their big man.
