If Kyrie Irving Bolt Brooklyn Nets — and Despite the seemingly increasing tensionIt’s still a big “if” — Lakers The most discussed potential destination. It’s despite how difficult it is to put together a successful opt-in and trade.

Draymond GreenWhat do you think about having to keep the title at the Warriors against the reunited Lebron and Irving? Bloomberg’s Lucas Shaw asked Green about it.
“If you give them someone like Killy with LeBron James … they will get a chance because of the way Killy wins basketball. LeBron just puts him in a position to do it. Killy hasn’t proven to be a good leader. Lebron puts an umbrella on it. If you can do what you’re good at, you’re leading Lebron …
“They were able to fight, but they wouldn’t beat us.”
What else did you think Green would say?
To play with “what if”.The Lakers Irving’s biggest question about the Lakers fighting Irving is the same without him: Do you? Anthony Davis Would you like to step up and play again like the top 10 players in the game? Is he healthy? Would you like to knock down the jumper and get the “Bubble” Davis who owned the protective paint? The Lakers need to get that Davis back. He and they fight. With Davis below that, they don’t.
The problem with Irving to the Lakers is to take him there. as mentioned above, Building a working opt-in and trade is very difficult For the Lakers, Nets, and some third team Russell WestbrookSalary). Free agents are a mid-level exception for $ 6.4 taxpayers, so the Lakers can all offer Irving right now. Irving has a $ 36.9 million player option that must be decided by June 29 — paying for what the Lakers can offer is leaving $ 30 million on the table. Killy does something else, but will you leave $ 30 million on the table?
When Irving comes to the Lakers, check to see if the green was right. But we have come a long way from testing that hypothesis.
