We should keep Nick but send them Kelly and Sacre which off sets that trade kicker and gives us close to 6m in cap space left.

The thing people are stupidly over looking is that no one on our roster but Nick Young has proven to be a legit 3pt shooter in the nba. You need the spacing and honestly he's fine as Kobe's back up.

Seriously just tell him to go stand in a corner and get the hell out of the way any time he isn't setting a pick on offense.

There is no Value for the Lakers. It is why we are in the situation we are in right now with no assets we can even trade. We get trash like this and get nothing in return.

context and i don't care much for Hibbert. Hibbert plays 25 minutes a game. If he managed double digit rebounds in those minutes he'd be the best rebounder in the league.

Then do tell me why he onlyplays 25mpg

We have assets we can trade, we're just not desperate enough to trade them.

We have no tradable assets. We cant afford to trade Clarkson Randle Russle. For us they are Untouchable. Now please explain to me what asset we have?

This is actually a really really solid trade, I get that it wasn't what we wanted, but it'll be a one year rental, he's only 28 and he actually played some elite defense less than 2 years ago. I've always contended that his issue was mental after that one post season. It could actually work out, worse comes to worst he ends up as a back up center for us in a couple years.

That's a pretty awful comparison.

Awful would be better used to describe this trade...sixers wouldve gotten picks to take on roy, we give up picks even if its the last pick of tje draft its still awful

cashflo · Post #131 » by **cashflo** » Sat Jul 4, 2015 10:42 pm

This is good... Defense and length needed and we got it...
Randle/Nance can play their position and mature..
Not bad.. Not bad at all!

Again Guys and Gals .. We need to build a foundation with the youngs.. Who knows , maybe Hibbert just needed a new scenery.. Low risk high reward!

drtg before Ortg

and just for reference a career 27mpg player still means you need another legit PF or C to eat time because Randle isn't ready for 30, Tarik is best in 20min increments ... Plus he has mobility issues, don't mention Kelly or Sacre two bum asses

those ratings are team dependent and don't mean much.

It's not a fluke

Wonder who you guys could put next to him at the 4?

Hmm

I know he can play. He's like Bynum when Bynum played in the playoffs hobbled and had no pop. You put a guy next to him who can move, recover, get back from a to b and then chase the distant boards. I like Randle but to me he's a sixth man along with Clarkson. I'd almost give all our other money not Josh smith to let him start at PF

I don't think you understand what an asset is. Randle, Russell, and Clarkson are assets, plain and simple.

Okay, what could the Lakers have done to get a tradable asset? When you have no assets you don't suddenly get assets.

Actually, he's gotten much better at the pick and pop, but not the pick and roll. He's really developed in his mid-range game. Last year he shot 44% from 16' to the 3pt line. I think he's figuring where his real talent lies, and he's not too bad there. He's no banger inside. When he's feeling it, he has a great running, soft hook. But, when he's mentally out, yeah, just have him stand at the top of the key.

Your comparison was to Lopez. Lopez is an offensive minded player, Hibbert is a defensive minded player. Hibbert is not a worse version of Lopez because they couldn't be more different of players.

Also, we don't know any information on the deal...relax.

Yea he averages 10 rebounds per 36 minutes so it's not that bad. However the fact that he's never played more than 30 mpg is troubling to me. Is his conditioning that bad or were they just saving him during the season (he plays over 30 mpg in the playoffs)?

It shouldn't be surprising considering his built that he wouldn't be able to play heavy minutes.

I don't know maybe something a good FO would Do like this?

The Sacramento Kings have cleared salary cap space by trading Nik Stauskas, Jason Thompson and Carl Landry to the Philadelphia 76ers.

Philadelphia was targeting Stauskas in the deal and will take on the salaries of Thompson and Landry as the cost.

Sacramento is pursuing Monta Ellis, Rajon Rondo and Wesley Matthews in free agency.

The 76ers receive a protected first round pick from the Kings and also get swap rights with Sacramento in the first round of two other drafts
