Why each team does this trade.

Lakers: LA keeps on talking about being one or two pieces away. Bringing in Jimmy shores up the lakers defense and gives them a proven guy to make their championship push. Giving up Rui is tough, but Jimmy plays bigger than his position.

Miami: The Heat try and recoup some assets in this trade. They get to stay competitive by bringing in Tobias Harris, bring back Gabe who use to play for the heat, and take a swing on Max Christie as a prospect. They also get 1 unprotect FRP when the Lakers will be bad and three second round picks for the upcoming draft that is mega deep, including Toronto's 2nd round pick which is basically a late FRP.

Detroit: In my opinion, I think the Pistons are the real winner here. They get Rui who is arguably better than Tobias Harris and more on the Cade-Ivey timeline, JV who would be a strong defensive presence, and a prospect in JHS. This is a big win.
