Luka Dealt to Lakers: Nico Harrison is a Basketball Terrorist

[StrandedOnBeauboisHill]

Say/think what you want about Pelinka, Jeanie Buss and the Lakers. I think they're a dumpster fire of a franchise, if not for "being born on 3rd base" as Simmons puts it, but...

...my goodness, they know how to come off as a classy, sophisticated organization in situations like this. So many coded messages in this press conference delivered with such subtlety, all designed to make guys LIKE LUKA, who are obviously special, feel like their team is the place to be. Bravo for that.

What I don't get is that you would think that a Nike exec is trained in EXACTLY this.
