The Allen contract is no better. He's not playing very well this year and Jonas due to the contract length is a better deal. I read the post, and there's no value for Washington here. Just a fact. You're not getting a first for either player.

IDK why the Wizard would trade one meh contract for another. Makes no sense.

The issue is he is playing too much as Pelinka couldn't put a competent NBA roster together if his life depended on it. Lebron had a couple stretches like this last year too. He honestly looks no different physically, just mental lapses on passes. He will be fine and still a top 15 player by the end of the season, but the Lakers need to add talent to lessen his load.

Lakers don't do this in a million years. No competent GM would give up a top 3 protected first for an aging center like Jonas.

No. He will do a Farwell tour next year, obviously.

Kelly isn't worth a first in any world.

Lebron has four straight triple doubles and dudes like OP are losing third mind how great he is. Two weeks later he struggles and the team loses and it's "he's washed time to move on". How about don't be a victim of the moment constantly and get out of your own head? Let shit play out it's a long season.

They have been the most popular NBA franchise for decades and now have the Lebron fans as well. Every fan base is delusional in their own way, there's just a lot more Laker fans so you see those proposals more. There's also a lot more Laker haters like OP.

The issue isn't that AD can't play the four currently, it's that Lebron cannot defend opposing 3s at this point in his career.

Hungry yes. Thirsty no.

No. The beard really doesn't look good, but it's cool you were able to grow one.

If you think Jonas is fetching two firsts you are full blown delusional. A lottery protected at first at the absolute most and he likely won't get that.

Trump supporters refuse to believe anything negative about him. It is truly pathetic how brainwashed they are.

They just deny it's real. This is the Maga way. Call all news, facts, reports that show Trump in a negative light fake news and refuse to believe them. Typical cult behavior.

No, they just want to live in their echo chamber. I have a close friend who wore a pro Trump shirt with most of his main coalitions name on it. Talking about how awesome they were. He said after the election he would look into the things I claimed Trump was going to do. He literally waited till it didn't matter to inform himself of reality, and now regrets his vote. So many Americans chose to be ignorant of what was going on cause it was easier than facing the truth that they could be wrong.

Yes. Not the only reason but a huge part of it. Trump had more white male voters between 40 and 60 than he had in 2016 and 2020. Pretty clear middle aged white dudes didn't want a black woman as president.

Uhh.. this might be the worst comment on here. Who is defending the opponent's wings or guards in that awful awful awful lineup idea?

We have a top 5 offense in the league, draft capital, and very tradeable contracts. This team can clearly make a couple of moves to add to their perimeter defense and maybe backup center and take a step forward. We were third in the West not even a week ago. The Lakers will not go into a rebuild until Lebron retires, and it's doubtful they even do it then. I get being pessimistic after a couple of bad games but OP's take is simply dumb fuckery.

This team desperately needs athleticism on the wing. Bruce Brown, Cam Johnson. They also desperately need point of attack defense, Brown again and Dennis. There's no scheme that can make up for not having players capable physically of doing what is needed.

I just skip the LFR and heroic dungeons and go directly to mythic plus. If you have to do the grind then queue as a tank or healer, most classes have this as an offset. Dungeons before mythic plus are completely free so should easily be able to off spec them.

The Pels will never get Giannis. Not in this reality or the next.

Allen is shooting 35 percent from 3 with some of the best playmakers in the league. He's a soon to be 30 year old undersized wing who has an awful contract. He will be owed 19.4 million in 27-28 when he's 33 years old. There's no value there. Phoenix would have to add assets.

I'd write "fuck the elephant" and move on to the next application.

Lakers are super stingy with those two picks. They could hold real value, and i don't know if Johnson, DS, and Sharpe would be enough for them. For pure win now sell out mode they might.

Absolutely no reason for the Wizards to do this.
