When asked about the trade, Legler, on the All-NBA Podcast, had the following to say, refusing to hold back on the situation: "Not only would Mark Cuban not have done the deal, Mark Cuban would have fired a person who suggested it on the spot... Because he'd be certain that person has to be doing something in terms of narcotics."

The Los Angeles Lakers' extremely active trade deadline won't likely be remembered for adding a big man, but their most recent move after acquiring Luka Doncic should have Lakers fans optimistic about where the team is heading.
