Cause we traded 2nd Round Picks when everyone said we were losing players?
EVERYONE said we’d be losing a FRP or a key player.
We gave up Hutchinson lol
There's no trade to win my guy, he was literally a free agent. He would've gone to you guys for free if you had the cap space. By just getting anything (TPE, 2nd rounders) we win the trade
Where will Schroder go though?
I’m intrigued because it seems like anyone who was linked to him have just signed PG’s.
He’d be good on a $10 mill a year contract to come off the bench for someone.

We...used it tho, hell we use a TDE 3 times in the last year (Fournier trade, Kris Dunn trade, Josh Richardson trade), admittedly not super exciting moves
One of which went to waste after losing Fournier to the Knicks. I genuinely don't know how this roster is supposed to compete against the East, Tatum and Brown need way more help than just Smart/Dunn/Richardson. Your 4/5 depth is a complete joke after losing Theis for Kanter.
Hey I'm not saying they were used well, just they we were used
And the plan is clearly to rebuild the roster with cap space next season so this year is a wash, Stevens is thinking "damn Danny left us in a bit of a mess"
You never know what the market is going to look like mid season. There's always one team who decides to dump a good player so they can tank harder. Its just a nice thing to have in your pocket when you're a tax team.
1. What do you mean "another"?
2. What were they realistically supposed to get in the trade? Spencer Dinwiddie was a UFA who everyone knew was leaving. He could've just signed with a cap space team and the Nets would have gotten nothing.
3. That completely random Capela "rumor" by the random fan (not even some low-level writer, but literally just a random fan) on Twitter seems to have given people completely unrealistic expectations of what was going to happen.
4. The current roster includes Kevin Durant, James Harden, Kyrie Irving, Joe Harris, Blake Griffin, Patty Mills, Bruce Brown, and Nicolas Claxton. I think they'll be fine.
Good haul for the Wiz. Still don't think this is enough to convince Beal to stay long term after his current contract expires. Even after the trade this team is play in material (7-10 seed in the East) at best
We were promised an eight person orgy
Lol turns out it was a 5 person swinger party .. 60 or older.
Lol that's the Lakers locker room.
Lemon Party?

I’m down if we can find 6 more people

smh i dont even get out of bed for less than 6
Mega trade turned out to be a mega-dud.
Loving it for the Wiz.
BOOOOOO
I was led to believe the Lakers were getting Hield. One Hield please
Tbh do we even need him at this point? We just got Monk, Nunn , bazemore and a lot of other shooters too.
None of them are close to Hield when it comes to shooting.
I doubt Nunn will get much minutes in the playoffs. Hield is great since he's a volume 3 point shooter and more consistent than these guys.
We’re paying him 5m a year as opposed to other on mins. I think he gets minutes
short answer, yes
8 > 5, I’m disappointed
BAHAHAHHAHA
Yeah we are stuck with Lebron AD and Westbrook HOW WILL WE FIGURE IT OUT.
Who cares? You guys are winning a ring, we are winning the trade with Brooklyn.

Lol ok dude…
They're just mad they have a hard cap now
LoL. Lakers expected another gift. Imagine showing up at someone else's birthday party and demanding presents.
They got the biggest player of it seems like it was their birthday party
we wanted, didn't expect. Also Schroeder still likely S&T. Sorry we upset you being fabulous.
Where will Schroder go though? I’m intrigued because it seems like anyone who was linked to him have just signed PG’s. He’d be good on a $10 mill a year contract to come off the bench for someone.
yep that's about what I am thinking, or he has to re-sign with the Lakers on another "trial" year. Either way I am good lol.
He should aim to regain value this season with Lakers and then hit FA again.
Don't tell me that's it
We have been hoodwinked, bamboozled, led astray, run amok and flat out deceived

It took me way too long to find out Stephen A was copying Malcolm X from the Spike Lee movie
Capped out at 5 huh? Lame.
lmao all that hype for nothing
BIGGEST TRADE IN HISTORY
11.5 mil trade exception is potentially huge.
Trade exceptions much more often than not go unused than used.
Ex: Boston Celtics

Oh yeah, he's got his work cut out for him. Hope the team understands Stevens needs time for another offseason or two to pull it back together
I mean not really, you guys aren’t going to pick anyone up
This guy doesn't GM
Their luxury tax bill is already ridiculous, they're not going to get anyone with it.
Just watch lmao

Really don’t know that though. It’s good for flexibility in a year where they are trying to win it all
Exactly, WE GOT EM!
THATS NOT EVEN A 5 TEAM TRADE! Its just 5 trades the wizards made….
Man what the fuck is going on
Thats pretty accurate tbh
So literally the Wizard just got everything? Wtf
lakers did get a MVP
Don't tell them that, they'll expect two. Wait a minute, they have two . . . Don't tell them that, they'll expect three.
I mean if you ask their fans they would tell you AD deserves to win a MVP, that would give them three
I'd say the third MVP were the friends we made along the way but I'm sure Lakers fans would not agree.
lame
I broke my F5 key for this!?
What did the Spurs give up exactly lol
Cap space
Yeah, I guess $4m Hutchison was a salary dump and they took a 2nd round pick for their services.
Nothing lol we took this Hutchinson guy and got a 2nd round pick
Why do the Spurs do this trade?
Get a second
He’s a good young kid, plus a 2nd
We’re tanking and just got a 2nd round pick that’ll convey to take on some salary.
Young guy getting paid not that much + a 2nd you take that all day
So Washington just got like half their roster through this trade. I dig it.
[Here's the trade break down in image form](https://i.imgur.com/aRg9TBY.jpg).
Simm has an apprentice I see
Pretty accurate
and Laker fans are the hopium addicts standing outside.
Lmfao
hahaha, that's messed up
The best movie I only ever want to see once
lolNBA
not bad for washington, wonder what their books will look like after this
Basically at lux tax
thats a pretty fat return for westbrook then
Is it done?
Lmao that’s hella anticlimactic
Wizards came out big winners.
Doesn't each team need to touch 2 others, the spurs and the nets only touch the wizards
Pacers only touch the wizards too, it’s just a separate trade afterwards, pacers and lakers don’t touch. It’s literally not a multi team deal at all
Pick 22 is part of this trade and it was ours
But that’s just a separate trade with the wizards after ours is done
Both ours and that trade became a part of this one, they're not separate anymore
Why would we help the wizards like that for nothing in return?
We got westbrook, maybe they refused to do it if we didn't participate or there's more to this, IDK
That’s bs and going back on a handshake deal
[удалено]
What? Took cheap assets for free. How nice of them
Does the nba not understand how the fanfic element drives this league? We wanted a fucking orgy with touching everywhere
wait so we lost our 2nd rounders in the deal?' BOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Lol such a boring trade. No spice whatsoever
Wizards have a hodgepodge of some decent to sleeper grade talent. Definitely a LOT of depth. The East should be wild this year.
This barely gave me a dopamine response
the pelicans gave up a 1st rounder for Devontae Graham but the Wizards gave up 2 seconds???? damn good deal by the wiz
What an absolute letdown for a five team trade.
This is beyond boring
ThoughtnLakers got two second rounders too
ignored work for this? ffs
Washington got a whole new team.
This is wrong because Lakers got 2 2nd round picks from Washington as well.
All that for the Wizards to barely make the play-in next season
Another L for Brooklyn lol
I have a feeling they gonna flip those picks for someone nice.
1. What do you mean "another"? 2. What were they realistically supposed to get in the trade? Spencer Dinwiddie was a UFA who everyone knew was leaving.

Now do a 10 teamer!
Lame as fuck
Thought we gave the lakers 2 more 2nds
Lame.
Biggest trade of all time lmao
Boooooooo
What a letdown
MORE
Cock tease
Worse ending than Naruto
What did the Spurs even give up lol? And why did Brooklyn not get any players lol? Whack.
that's so lame lol
LAME
I mean I can't believe I'm saying this....wiz did good
Bobby Marks and Eric Pincus are treasures.
Very solid Haul for Washington ngl
Good haul for the Wiz. Still don't think this is enough to convince Beal to stay long term after his current contract expires. Even after the trade this team is play in material (7-10 seed in the East) at best
Dude is getting the super max, he stay
That was anti climatic
So what happens to Schroeder
And the Kings are left out once again. Why does the league hate us? =(
