Lakers rumors also caught fire a couple months ago when Pat Bev hopped on ESPN and said this about potentially joining LeBron James in Los Angeles:
- If I was a free agent and if me and Minnesota didn't agree to a number, yes. I wouldn't even hesitate. Just to be able to play with a great like [James], be able to pick his brain, be able to be a star in whatever role that I have, playing alongside Russell Westbrook...fantastic. Playing for the Lakers, couldn't ask for a better job.

Should the Lakers trade for Pat Bev? Type ‘Y’ for Yes, Type ‘N’ for No

Kyrie Irving highlights today’s show, as usual - the trade rumors to Los Angeles aren’t dying down anytime soon, especially given a recent report from New York Post writer Brian Lewis on Kyrie’s plans to stay with the Nets before the Kevin Durant trade news unfolded:

- A source close to the team confirmed that the organization has been in contact with Durant since his trade demand stunned the NBA. Another source close to Irving told The Post that the All-Star point guard not only never asked for a trade, but has had every intention of playing for the Nets — with or without Durant.

Here’s what that anonymous source close to Irving had to say:
- Kyrie has not asked for a trade. Now, if the Nets don’t want him, that’s something totally different. Kyrie has not said he wants a trade. He opted in. [So where did] the trade conversations come from? Is it because KD requested a trade, and now everybody’s like ‘let’s trade Ky’? Kyrie opted in.

Lakers trade ideas have been tossed around by just about every fan of the purple and gold, but here’s the one Bleacher Report proposed to land Kyrie Irving:
- Lakers Receive: Kyrie Irving, Joe Harris
- Spurs Receive: Russell Westbrook, Future 1st Round Pick (via LAL)
- Nets Receive: Talen Horton-Tucker, Doug McDermott, Josh Richardson, Future 1st Round Pick (via LAL)

Would you make this trade? Type ‘A’ for Accept, Type ‘D’ for Decline
