LAKERS / SPURS

[Craig]

If Lane were on the Celtics, this wouldn't get any public opinion.

Public opinion should be noted when it comes to a league owned team, and I think there is a strong consensus outside of LA that this isn't in favor of the league owned team.

I'd almost argue that the Lakers should give up a 1st to meet league owned criteria, but it's not a huge deal overall.

If Lane were on the Celtics it'd still be a bad trade lol

Previously veto'd trades from non owner-led teams would suggest otherwise.

I would agree, I haven’t brought it up but my trade (that was vetoed) with the Grizzlies in which I got 5 unprotected picks and good role players for Barkley. A few of which ended up being top 5 picks. And that was before Barkley was close to DPOY.

To be fair 9.7 assist per game isn’t average exactly lol

Basically this. There may still be folks saying that Lane has more value than Zo (true) but we wouldn't see 40 comments on the trade.

This is just a really unique situation. I recall the "Kings" saying it would take 6 unprotected picks and I think it was a rookie Pervis Ellison at the time for Oscar. Oscar is/was better at that juncture, but this is nowhere near that level of return.

[lukeyrid13]

Dawkins is nothing more than salary filler in this trade IMO

Good times

[the goat]

While I agree that the Spurs should receive another 1st as fair compensation, why should I be punished for striking a good deal? The 1st should come Ownage's own war chest

So others can be "punished" for "striking a good deal" but you're exempt?

btw more like multiple 1sts lol

[dd10snoop28]

it's a different situation altogether cuz it's not Ownage's team. he is trying to keep the team in shape for the next gm.

I mean is this a league for grown ass men (and woman) or does every trade need to be peer reviewed for "fairness?"

Thats a fair question on the bigger picture but the reality is, they are.
