Iguodala

LongLiveIverson · Post #1 » by **LongLiveIverson** » Tue Jul 10, 2012 1:33 am

Sixers fan just looking for honest and not critical opinions here for a trade proposal down the line.

Iguodala, Lou Williams (S+T), Thaddeus Young, 2014 First unprotected For Bynum, Artest, Steve Blake
(If not Lou Williams then recently signed Nick Young)

Sixers get a potential guy they can build around, and take on 2 bad contracts.
Lakers get the ideal wing to pair with Kobe, Lou Will/Young provides instant offense off the bench. Thad Young would thrive playing in a Nash up tempo scheme.

In Fa target a veteran Center like Chris Kamen
Assuming you bring back Jordan Hill and Ebanks, and do the inevitable and sign Raja
C. Kamen/Hill
F. Gasol/Thad
F. Iggy/Ebanks
G. Bryant/R.Bell
G. Nash/Lou Will
Talented team that can ALL play with Nash. (Gasol with pick and pop) (Iggy and Thad can run the floor). Gives you incredible depth off the bench with Lou Williams and Thad. (Reason Sixers had the best bench in the league) Jordan Hill, Ebanks, and Bell provides the defensive intensity and hustle.

From the outside, I can see how this seems fair as lakers get all the pieces that fill their holes (a great SF, and filling in bench deficiencies etc). That being said, I cannot see the Lakers winning anymore games with this trade. I actually see the lakers record getting worst. We will be losing a dominant front court for a defensive specialist plus 2 bench players. And Lou williams scores by jacking up shots... I can't see him doing that in LA when we have a more furnished offense. Lou williams and thaddeus are only good on certain teams (ex. in PHI where the majority of offense is on fast breaks).

While Iggy would be a great fit for the Lakers, he is simply not enough for a Bynum trade. Doesn't make sense to include Thaddeus since his salary is about the same as MWP in 2013-14 and we would rather have Peace. The pick is okay, but Lakers don't really care about picks (see Nash deal). Lou might even be available for the miniMLE, so no need to do a S+T. So, in order to get Bynum to PHI there would have to be a third team that could return a big for Thaddeus and I don't see that happening. Good try though.

Sorry, I recognize the sincere effort that went into this proposal, but the only way we'd ever trade Bynum for a depth package would be if Gasol got moved for Howard or a star PG.

We would have no serviceable C, and there's no way Kaman comes here for what little money we have to offer.

Iguodala is a good SF no doubt, and would fill our needs - but the nicest way I can put it is that the sum of the offered trade parts don't match up to what the Lakers would be losing in getting rid of Bynum.

The talent is fine, the salary matches, but you can't trade an all-star center and not get one in return.

My opinion : The Lakers decline the offer, but would consider Pau for Iggy.

i would love iggy on the lakers but we would have to put gasol on this trade and like everybody here i think gasol will reborn playing with nash

NextToJack · Post #18 » by **NextToJack** » Wed Jul 11, 2012 4:19 am

iggy would be an excellent fit on various versions of the lakers. however, his court vision and assisting making skills will be held off by the offensive scheme. Neutralizing an important rare skill from a statfilling-court-filing workhorse.

Trading one large contract for another. Iggy makes 15M per season the next *2 seasons. Iggy running wing and leading breaks raising the tempo. Consistently looking to run break. Trailing center offense.

edit: 3years down to 2.

who is this Chris Kamen?

markjay · Post #20 » by **markjay** » Wed Jul 11, 2012 2:11 pm

I'm probably one of the few Lakers fans that is intrigued. I don't like Bynum's attitude, and his knees are always a question. Forget about Kamen -- Pau could be moved over to the five.

I expect Bynum will probably be moved in a deal for Howard, but, if that doesn't happen, lakers might want to consider trading him to Indiana or 76ers or Atlanta in some kind of multiplayer deal (e.g., Danny Granger plus David West, or Iggy plus other pieces).
