The Lakers come out of the trade deadline the same team they were heading into it. Not a single move made, though it remains unclear how hard they pushed to make something happen.
What we do know, errr — what we see being reported, is that the Lakers refused to part with Kyle Kuzma in a trade with the Knicks centered around Marcus Morris. I, for one, think this is the smart move. I said on twitter hours before the deadline I wouldn’t trade for Morris at all; that I did not want him on the Lakers at all.
