Lakers wanting Lavine. what's the minimum package you would want from the Lakers for Lavine if you were to trade Lavine? obviously, no James and AD。

The Lakers have nothing to offer. It's a championship team built around Lebron meaning a lot of veteran role players. Kuzma is the only young player they have with upside but he's not as good as Lavine and they don't have any picks to really bridge that gap in value.
Losing to get high draft picks and hoping they turn into franchise players is not some next level, genius move. That's what teams want to happen in any rebuild/tank or whatever you want to market it as.

Credible Rumors or Fan Made Rumors?

Big difference between the 2 because there are no credible rumors that say this. Move this to trade discussion page.

credible rumors? theres a reason why its called rumor. Its mostly just for fun discussions. Lakers fans and some media were talking about how to retool for a repeat, the name Lavine came up a few times. they think he's the ideal 3rd option for the Lakers with his shooting and scoring ability.

Should I start a new thread that says Luka Doncic for Felicio then? I'm starting the fan made rumor and it's a fun discussion.

Maybe a three team trade where we get Giannis and the lakers send their garbage to the Bucks. :lol:

All the Lakers' role players are expiring and they already traded their draft picks for the near term, they don't have any trade assets, even for an undervalued LaVine.

I don't see us taking on Danny Green and Kuzma for Lavine. Not sure what else the Lakers can offer.

Lakers don't have anything they are willing to part with that I would be remotely interested in. Not saying Lavine is untouchable, just just saying the Lakers are not the team that will trade for him.

Why would the Lakers even want to swap those guys for Zach? Green and Kuzma are used to playing off ball in a LeBron offense, whereas Lavine is used to pounding the ball in Chicago.

Maybe in a 3 team trade where Kuzma goes somewhere else and we get a different young player our FO is high on or a guaranteed future lotto pick or 2. But straight up, I don't see a deal happening. Not a fan of Kuzma.
