Patrick Beverley is exactly what the Lakers need. Will breath instant life into the franchise. Imagine him bringing that same energy he brought against the Grizzlies in the first round everyday. – 1:22 AM

The PatBev trade reminds me a lot of the Joe Ingles for NAW/Bo Cruz deal.
Trade an expiring 34 year old for an young prospect who’s disappointed so far with a longer contract + a fringey guy you can conceivably put in a rotation. – 12:56 AM

PatBev is a really good pickup for this Lakers team, and they didn’t have to give up any picks or rotation players to do it.
Think it’s reasonable for Lakers’ fans to be frustrated about the whole “THT over Caruso” thing. But that’s a sunk cost, and this is a smart deal for LAL – 12:31 AM

Def a fan of the trade. Lakers don’t have anybody on that roster like Pat Bev, a much needed pick up
As for THT, lot of potential, but Lakers need players that can help right away. Hate to lose a good wing player in Stanley
What you think Laker Fans, you a fan of the move? – 12:28 AM

Emergency Radio Roulette is LIVE @UnderdogFantasy
– Pat Bev traded to Lakers for THT
– What’s next for Westbrook?
– There is no way these two are playing together, right? RIGHT?
– LeBron’s extension
– Wait a second did the Jazz just steal THT?

In pure basketball terms, Pat Bev fits the Lakers’ needs … which, of course, makes last summer’s Caruso/THT decision (that didn’t need to be made) even more baffling. – 12:04 AM

I suspect Lakers fans are feeling the same with Pat Bev as I did when the Blues picked up Esa Tikkanen in ’94. BK – 12:03 AM

An underrated part of Patrick Beverley’s game last year was his playmaking.
Of 104 players to run 150+ pick + rolls last season, Beverley was 6th most productive.
It was also apparent early on he was comfortable in the role. These clips are all from the beginning of the year. pic.twitter.com/pIHYj7HjuS – 12:00 AM

Beverley, Hield, James, Davis, Turner starting.
Reaves and Schroder as the backup backcourt. Jones and Bryant fighting for backup center mins. Hopefully one of the minimum wings pop.
Nunn+Walker can bring back a $14 million salary at the deadline if necessary.
A man can dream. – 11:58 PM

in all seriousness, you dont do this Pat Bev deal unless you already have one in place for Russ too right? cant have these two taking pictures at media day together. we are not worthy of such content. – 11:51 PM

The first veteran domino has fallen with Pat Beverley being traded to the Los Angeles Lakers. The Jazz get back Talen Horton-Tucker, whom they liked quite a bit a few years ago in the pre draft process. What are your thoughts? – 11:46 PM

I think the Lakers desperately needed another defensive culture setter after last season’s tire fire.
LeBron, at his age, shouldn’t be expending the energy on defense he did in the 2020 title run. Beverley is the perfect vet to hold everyone else accountable. – 11:45 PM
![](https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/1419160813193945091/fsdA5_57_normal.jpg)
Memes aside that’s a good move for the Lakers. Two guys I wouldn’t expect to be in a playoff rotation for one that would be. They were a mess defensively and PatBev will help.
(Just ignore the fact they paid THT instead of Caruso and then traded THT for a worse Caruso. Whoops.) – 11:43 PM

While Kyrie Irving was LA’s prized target, the Lakers seemed to have their sights set on Patrick Beverley as a potential point guard addition from the moment he was moved to Utah in the Rudy Gobert trade: bleacherreport.com/articles/10041… – 11:42 PM
![](https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/601654375518470144/CM5e69AY_normal.jpg)
I think Austin Reaves is a big winner of the THT-Beverley trade.
Beverley rarely plays whole seasons, and at his age, I think the Lakers will try to be cognizant of that and manage his workload. That should create even more opportunities for Reaves. – 11:42 PM

Ironically, Patrick Beverley was the free agent I most wanted the Lakers to sign in 2019 (I never believed Kawhi was coming). It didn’t work out then. Glad it will now. – 11:40 PM

Watched that Lakers team all but refuse to compete on many a nights last season and often back down when challenged. That’s not how Pat Bev does business. He will compete. – 11:37 PM

Patrick Beverley was EXACTLY what the Lakers needed to add. A consistent, energetic defender who can make it difficult for every opponent. His experience is valuable for a team like Lakers. His teaming up with LeBron, AD, Russ will be fun to watch. #LakeShow – 11:35 PM

Really hard to believe LeBron signed the long-term extension without assurances of getting more help now. Doubt PatBev is the last Lakers move before the season. – 11:35 PM

Patrick Beverley is a 37.8% career 3-point shooter.
That makes him the best shooter on the Lakers. The next highest career 3-point percentage on the team belongs to Kendrick Nunn at 36.4% – 11:32 PM

Not sure what the logic is with this trade. Kinda weird, but is weird the new norm for the Lakers?
Went from Lowry for THT to Beverley for THT AND Stanley Johnson?
Hope this isn’t their “Big” move… – 11:27 PM
