So im hearing different things im need someone to clear it up for me? If he opts in does that mean he is an asset to use for a trade or he will have a NTC meaning we cant trade him without his permission? Please someone explain to me im super dumb lol.
Not super dumb...just not super familiar...yet.
If he opts in, that’s 9.7m in trade fodder. He cannot void a potential trade if he opts in. However, he can opt out and sign a new non-bird 1+1 deal starting at 11.2m (that can pay him up to 23m total over 2 years). If he does that, then he does get a built in NTC within that new contract.
If he agrees to opt out and facilitate a S&t to a new team, obviously he consented on that arrangement and will not be able to block that type of deal either.
If you aggregate Trez’s 9.7m to Kcp/Kuz’s combined 26m, then we have the ability to trade for as much as 44.7m in salary (ie enough for every max player including Russ and Cp3 (once he opts in to his PO).
Btw, check my sig to get familiar _________________ Not familiar with the salary cap/CBA rules & how it impacts our Lakers?

At times, Harrell looked like the difference-maker the Lakers hoped they would be getting. At other times, he flew under the radar.
Harrell wasn’t a different player across the hallway in the purple and gold this season. Per Synergy, he ranked in the 95th percentile as a roll man in the pick and roll. The problem was that he had his amount of possessions per game in the pick and roll halved this season.
Those possessions were largely replaced with cuts and dump-off passes under the basket, which rose from 13.5% of his plays with the Clippers to 23.1% with the Lakers. He still ranked in the 73rd percentile on those possessions in general, and in the 85th percentile on basket cuts and passes under the basket, specifically. In fact, across the board, Harrell was as efficient or better offensively this season. He graded out as a 96th percentile player, up from the 89th percentile last season.
Where, then, was the downside to his season?
The most noticeable part was how much fewer possessions he had this season. Despite playing six more games this season than last, he played just under 200 fewer minutes. He had almost 5.4 fewer possessions per game offensively, per Synergy. What made him so effective — and served as the team’s(when with the Clippers) downfall — was that he was their preferred big man. With the Lakers, he was balancing those minutes with any number of other role players, along with LeBron James and Anthony Davis.

Yet the Clippers didn’t want him back. There were issues at play that weren’t part of on the court activities. _________________ RIP mom. 11-21-1933 to 6-14-2023.

They thought they had it better with Ibaka whom they thought would do what Harrell did but with added defense. What they got was an Ibaka that dealt with back injuries all season, missed a lot of games, started, and didn't perform better than the level Harrell did.
I feel bad for Trez, he scarified money to go to the Lakers who then proceeded to not even play him right and then they immediately trade him away to the lowly Wizards as soon as he opts in
I never was a fan of getting Trez but if you get him you need to play to his strengths so that it dwarfs his weaknesses. Dennis and Trez should have been looked in a gym with Phil Handy all summer to recreate that chemistry he had with Lou but it feels like that was never something the coaches tried to implement. The Lebron+Trez PnR was very effective the few times we used it but yeah... why did we only use it a few times??? _________________ (bleep) Kawhi

Yeah, I don't understand the signing if you weren't going to play him correctly. The Lakers knew his shortcomings prior to signing him, so I don't understand his situation at all.
However, I don't think he was blindsided or anything with regards to the trade. He opted in to get his money, and he's probably happy he'll get a chance to showcase his skills in Washington to prep for another free agency.
