It's 2023

Four years from now. LeBron is 38 years old. Think about 38-year-old Kobe, Dirk and Tim Duncan. Sure would be nice to have a 25 year-old Ingram and Ball about then.

Let's take a long look at this AD trade. Think about what we are really giving up.

Is AD minus Ball, BI, Kuzma and Zubac a better team than Vucevic or Boogie (who are FA's) WITH those players. And Anthony Davis is a FA just NEXT year. We could have the best of all worlds just next year.

AD says he wants to be a Laker. Yeah, I know, Paul George. But there's also Dwight Howard. And Steve Nash.

Again, it's 2023. One year of not panicking could have a 29 year old AD along with a couple of great 25 and 26 year olds. And that's a dynasty.
