The Previous Possibilities of Pippen to the Lakers

As the Lakers refuse to trade their young core for a star for the second consecutive NBA off-season, Basketball Reasons takes a look back at a few previous instances of the Lakers acquiring big-name star players in trades, going from Wilt Chamberlain to Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and culminating in the possibly franchise-altering moment when Los Angeles refused to trade Kobe Bryant to the Chicago Bulls for Scottie Pippen. Before that, though, Charles Diamond gives some brief thoughts on NBA Twitter's response to the LeBron James to the Lakers move and ends with some perspective on the Kawhi-DeRozan trade that shocked the NBA. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
