I want to chime in on this Ant Davis and Lamelo Ball teaming up situation. Name a time in History where 2 guards as the best players on the team won a championship? I’ll name them for you don’t waste your time. Steph and Klay were the best players on the warriors during there dynasty run. So basically due to statistics which are very swayed against this duo the only formula to win is the need to mirror those exact role players from that team the whole team to make them finals championship multiple times worthy. That means Jaden Mcdaniels has to go for a screen setting power forward that can run an offense. Who fits that mold? Because that person is a unicorn a power forward that can dribble and pass that is big enough to play great defense and set screens. KAT he just won a championship? The trade that makes the most sense right now for Mcdaniels is ZION Williamson. Listen to me loud and clear. The wolves need to go all in on getting Zion. He is the player they are missing. And also the philosophy. Has to match Steph is unanimously the greatest shooter of all time and Klay is 100% a top 7 shooter all time 2 of the greatest shooters ever. Neither of them are ball dominant they are screen runners. And that is the problem you run into both Ant and Melo are ball dominant if I had to guess they will never win a championship because they lack what made Golden State great there point guard and shooting guard ran off screens all game and there power forward facilitated the ball to them. Ant and Melo not running off screens and they need to for this to work 💡genius level basketball IQ

I’m with Vinny about Giannis. His window is shorter, so the pressure naturally a bit heavier considering SA always talked about him needing to leave Milwaukee because his window was closing. Now why would he have to leave? To win more chips! Vinny got that one

Luka made the finals with a mediocre center he played less than half a season as starter and a rookie as rotation. Part of me suffer with the James’ situation because, as a teenager and with an ative basketball life, I saw him entering the NBA. Emotionally speaking, he going is a last piece of that period of my life going as well. But, to be honest, he is not that indispensable anymore.
btw, how the heck Perkins got this job?

Apparently not🤷 based on the actions of the Lakers org. And it’s fandom are so excited about it, they don’t need him. But you know what’s funny, he’s one of the reasons they could realistically win a 🏆😂
He is ALWAYS available when it matters most. Now look at Luka, ideally he should’ve been at the peak of his physical prowess but he just isn’t that type of player.👀 That’s why you still need someone who could help him somewhat coast the season to be prepared for the playoffs. But I guess they don’t.🤣 I wonder how this will end up. And I hope LeBron LEAVES and helps another team that has a solid plan to win and stop this Lakers team from achieving anything to force Luka to leave them to that 🗑️ they were in before LeBron,AD and that 2020 squad be relevant. It would be hilarious to see these Lakers fans be in shambles for another decade or a couple more.❤️🔥🙌🤣

This is a crazy take, but LeBron already stated that he doesn’t want to be in Cleveland or Miami. People always compare him to Jordan, so I think it would be interesting if he went to Washington. As presently constructed. They are in the East and have a better roster than MJ had. Or he could go to Boston and they can trade Jalen Brown Houston for Amen Thompson and some picks.
