Imagine trading Josh Allen or Patrick Mahomes to another team to get some healthy players! Ugh… that sounds so off-beat. A similar case happened on February 1. No, it’s not about any NFL team, it’s actually about the NBA and is the most surprising trade in the league’s history. Luka Dončić, the face of the Mavericks, got traded to the Lakers. And this started a buzz on the internet, with another surprising NFL prediction of Jim Harbaugh’s team.
A reporter and host of ‘Bolt Breakdown‘, Alex Insdorf, shared a trolling tweet on his official X account. He jokingly predicted, “Lakers and Mavericks have inspired me, Joey Bosa, and a 6th for CeeDee Lamb.” His tweet sarcastically suggested an equally ridiculous trade – sending NFL star Joey Bosa and just a sixth-round pick in exchange for another star, CeeDee Lamb.
This joke highlighted how lopsided and unfair the Maverick’s trade was. It implied they gave up a superstar for far less than his actual value. Similarly, giving up Joey Bosa from Jim Harbaugh’s Chargers for CeeDee Lamb. Even fans couldn’t hold back their laughter as it burst across the internet, with many saying, “Classic,” or “I wish Bosa was anywhere close to that level lol.”

Lakers and Mavericks have inspired me, Joey Bosa and a 6th for CeeDee Lamb
— Alex Insdorf (@alexinsdorf99) February 2, 2025
Jim Harbaugh’s Chargers’ defensive end Joey Bosa finished the season with 5.0 sacks among his 22 tackles (17 solos) in 14 games. He is a formidable presence on the team. His impressive performance earned him a spot in the 2025 Pro Bowl Games. And with this, he marked his fifth career Pro Bowl selection, the third-most by a defensive player in the franchise’s history. But still, obviously, he is arguably not on the level of CeeDee Lamb.
First, Lamb is an elite receiver and not a defensive player. Second, the athlete, who has played 5 seasons with the Cowboys, recorded 496 catches for 6,339 yards and 42 touchdowns, along with 3 Pro Bowl appearances. So, in short, without Lamb, the team might lose one of their consistent playmakers. On the other hand, Bosa, who is flourishing under Jim Harbaugh, is too old to replace Lamb. So, this swap isn’t justifiable. Indeed, the same wasn’t for the Mavericks, but unfortunately they did. As a result, this troll and playful predictions aren’t ending soon.
Another shocking troll emerges after Jim Harbaugh’s team predictions!
Imagine waking up to the news that your team just traded away its biggest superstar. That’s exactly what happened when the Mavericks sent Luka Dončić to the Lakers. It came out as astonishing news for the NBA and Mavericks fans. But now the deal has been done, and we can’t do anything about it. Nevertheless, this incident has opened the door for NFL fans to create similar parody scenarios involving football players. After Jim Harbaugh’s team’s bizarre trade predictions, an NFL executive applied a similar scenario to the Bengals.

According to Fox Sports’s Jordan Schultz, an NFL general manager told him, “Imagine the Bengals shipping off Ja’Marr Chase to the Buccaneers for Mike Evans and a second-round pick.” Sounds ridiculous, right? Chase is young, dominant, and at the peak of his game just like Luka. Meanwhile, Evans, like Anthony Davis, is still great but much older.

Nevertheless, the NBA brokered this strange trade. Dallas got Davis, Max Christie, and a future first-round pick. The Lakers landed Dončić, Maxi Kleber, and Markieff Morris. The Jazz helped make the deal happen and picked up Jalen Hood-Schifino along with two second-rounders. Davis is a top defender, no doubt. But giving up a 25-year-old superstar for a 32-year-old player? That’s hard to believe. Just like in the NFL, no one would ever expect the Bengals to trade Chase for an aging Evans, even with an extra draft pick. Or Jim Harbaugh’s Joey Bosa with CeeDee Lamb. Some moves indeed just don’t make sense!
