Luka Dealt to Lakers: Nico Harrison is a Basketball Terrorist

[Smitty]

To this point, there was bit from the Simmons/Goldbery video RTG posted about how the deal was originally bigger and included both Knecht and the 2031 first, but that "Pelinka was able to whittle it down over a few weeks" to the deal that ultimately went through. 

Mix in Knecht and the other pick (as long as it still includes Christie) and it's slightly easier to swallow today, at least for me.

It's because Nico will be working for the Lakers in 2031.
