When a rumor or report comes out that a team is interested in a certain player, IT DOES NOT MEAN THAT THEY WILL GET THAT PLAYER!!! I am sure all of you are interested in a massive mansion. Guess what, if you don't have the money to purchase it, YOU CANNOT GET IT! The Lakers have nowhere NEAR the assets to even discuss a trade with the Mavs. Austin Reaves is not Kobe, Laker fans. He is Austin Tyler Reaves and Dallas will not trade Luka for Reaves.
Luka is happy in Dallas as they just made the Finals and could have won if they hit their threes. Now they added arguably the second greatest shooter in NBA history to help the shooting. Luka now has a great SG in the backcourt, an elite shooter, a guy who could stretch the floor as a four, and two great lob threats/rim protecters. They added Naji Marshall and Quentin Grimes too. They are a top three team in the Western Conference contending for a title, so why would Luka want to get traded?
If the reason the Lakers have not made a single move this offseason is because they want to save assets for a Luka trade, then EVERYONE in the Front Office needs to pack their bags and GET OFF MY TEAM!!! I have never seen a team be this delusional in my life. If you understand this and what the Lakers are thinking, PLEASE PLEASE explain as I do not get it one bit.
