Russell Westbrook is bringing the family back together.
So I´m landing on two potential trades now...
Westbrook + Lakers 1st unprotected to Mavs
Irving (+ extension) + Bertans to Lakers
Dinwiddie + THJ to the Nets
if that is not enough for the Nets then....
Westbrook + Lakers 2027 1st unprotected + Nets 2023 1st unprotected to Mavs
Irving (+ extension) + Bertans to Lakers
Dinwiddie + DFS + McGee to the Nets
I think the Lakers are fine with this and there are enough possible iterations of the Mavs to Nets part to find a trade agreement, which then just hinges on Cuban being willing to take a step back, "lose" the trade now and win it in five months.
Maybe Nico can pay Zach Lowe to write a pre-trade A+ grade for Cuban´s ego.
