#72is kuzma really consistent? i think josh hart can do some of what he can. Ingram has a lot of kd qualities and only getting better. he's not ready, but lebron is only a laker for possible four years. Ingram is gonna be a star well beyond that.Comment -

#73Hart is a guard, Kuzma is a foward and a rare talent -his struggles can be attributed to playing out of position at the 5.Comment -

#75Ingram is such a wildcard. I agree that Kuzma looks better than him right now, but you have to remember Ingram is also two years younger. The Lakers keep waiting for him to make the next jump. I don't really care about KCP, but he is a Lebron guy. Same agent anyway.Comment -

#76Sorry 2 make this thread about the Lakers OP- but once again Lakers are losing games because of there defense - they can not stop anyone- they are averaging 118.5 points a game on offense - 2nd to the warriors in the western Confrence in scoring - giving up a whopping 119.2 on defense - untill they add some perimeter defense- they will not make the playoffs - oh and there best player Lebrenda? Does not give a dam about defenseComment -

#79a few thoughts,
does butler fit with their already overcrowded duo of simmons/fultz? i think they should just move fultz for something they need right now. i think it's too many ball intensive players (and two of the key ballhanders can't/don't shoot)...... maybe should have sent fultz to minnesota instead (and of course compensation of either side would have to be adjusted)
butler has to now "shut up and play". can't be looking to 2019 or 2020 already..... basically needs to "walk the walk" (did ESPN say that?)
lakers need a good defensive big man. even one that doesn't participate that much in offense. i am shocked league hasn't valued the good defensive big man more. basically moneyball having good pg and defensive centre and generally go 3/D (maybe just 3 shooting) with the rest (of course you need backups and depth at all those roles)Comment -

#80i didn't think it made sense. but didn't have opinion as to whether it was true..... i was shocked the NBA might allow it. i understand keeping one pick every 2 years but i also thought there'd be restrictions on how far in the future you can trade them.Comment -

personally, i think we'll find that Butler is overrated and that the sixers are very badly constructed. butler has a nice balanced game but if he's ball-intensive, he doesn't have good shooters to pass to.Comment -

#89the biggest problem with most fans' views of NBA trade value is that they simply look at the quality of the key player (in this case Butler) involved. or alternatively, they look at it like being in a fantasy sports pool..... but the biggest thing is that Butler will have alot of control over where he wants to play sooner rather than later. so depending on the circumstances, he can sign elsewhere and Wolves get nothing or perhaps a modest package back for him.

#91I'm with you mate,I think the Wolves got a fair offer,given the circumstances.Fans will always think their player is worth more then he really is,like you said this isn't Fantasy Basketball.Think of the Teams that lost their star and got zip in return,theirs been plenty.

#92Butler had the mindset that he was the King of the team - it was his team - Not sure KAT was willing to admit that and take advice from Butler's big mouth. I just do not believe Jimmy Butler is a team players and wish KAT would have told Jimmy Butler to stfu and punched him in the face a few times. He was very hard to play with - must have watched too many Lebron videos - ball stuck in his hands and then he bombed up crappy shots at the end of the shot clock. If Derrick Rose stays healthy - might be the best thing that ever happened to the Wolves??? I think he will try to do the same thing with the Sixers?Comment -

#93Sure it will. You have to be realistic. This Wolves team is going nowhere fast. Gathering first rounders is the best way to give yourself a future shot. That's what the Celtics did and how they turned it around. Amass picks and you can either use or trade them. Covington and Saric does nothing for them.Comment -

#95100%...guys a cancer who thinks he can tell coaches when he wants days off...umm sorry Jimmy you aren't Lebron. Doesn't really do anything for either team like you said, Minnesota still a mediocre/below mediocre team who'll finish 12th in the West and Philly is an above average mediocre team who won't go anywhere in the playoffs and Butler will leave next year...big nothingburger this trade isComment -

#97Ben Simmons (0:00) tells the media he’s excited to play with Jimmy Butler on the Philadelphia 76ers and describes why he thinks Butler will be a good fit with the team. Joel Embiid (1:01) says the 76ers were impacted Saturday night vs. Memphis Grizzlies because they were shorthanded, and discusses how Butler will mesh with his new teammates in Philadelphia. T.J. McConnell (3:03) describes how he heard about the trade and how his teammates were “shocked” about it.

#100This is an excellent trade. Covington shows up once every five games and Saric is just Saric. Nothing special. 2nd round picks are a joke in the NBA. Heck even most first round picks are jokes.Comment -

The Celtics are a diffrent kettle of fish all together,theyve had some bad seasons to be sure,but they are a wnning franchise,that have made the most of their draft choices.Comment -

It's a very good risk for Philly. For Minny, they did have to deal him, but it's just puzzling they couldn't get better.Comment -

#104The Timberwolves have never been able to do much with their picks though to be honest,sure theyve managed to draft some nice talent over the years,but have never been able to really put it all together.
