Rumor I saw is LA offered a package including Ball for John Wall.

That doesn't really make sense for them. 

LeBron and Wall would combine for 75.2 million. Even if you dump every other salary the empty roster spot cap hold would stick them at something like 84 million. That doesn't leave them enough to be competitive for a third star unless they convince someone to take a pay cut.

Yeah it doesn’t but two stars, when one of them is LeBron, and a bunch of role players, could get it done.

Yeah but you couldn't pick a worse star to play with LeBron from a fit standpoint

Agreed and this move would take them out of the AD/KD/Kawhi/Klay sweepstakes. That stat you posted about wall being the new “slowest player in the league” is pretty jaw dropping. Co-GM Bron Bron wouldn’t be having any of that

Mauro. 

Why?

Understand what we need in a point guard. 

 

I think we'll make the playoffs if we just get a guy who can hit open 3s and not be a buffoon on offense like Grant.

The Ringer ranked the top 25 players in the league based on this season.  Vooch is ranked 22, Tobias Harris is 20, and Oladipo is 17.

Brandon Jennings, Ervin Ilyasova, and Ross didn't make the list.

Maybe Rob Hennigan is a genius
