LAL x NYK x TOR 

Post#1 » by Troubadour » Sun Feb 2, 2025 6:20 pm

Raptors Trade
Jakob Poeltl
Chris Boucher

Raptors Receive
Mitchell Robinson
Gabe Vincent
Jarred Vanderbilt
2025 1st Round Pick (WAS - 11-30 in 2025; WAS - 9-30 in 2026; 2027 2nd if not conveyed)
2031 1st Round Pick (LAL)

Raptors flip two veterans for picks (admittedly not the best value picks) and a potential starting centre if he can get healthy.

Lakers Trade
Gabe Vincent
Jarred Vanderbilt
Christian Wood
2031 1st Round Pick (LAL)

Lakers Receive
Jakob Poeltl
Tyler Kolek

Lakers take ineffective depth pieces and acquire a starting centre with cost certainty.

Luka / Milton
Reaves
LeBron / Knecht
DFS / Hachimura
Poeltl / Hayes

Knicks Trade
Mitchell Robinson
Tyler Kolek
2025 1st Round Pick (WAS - 11-30 in 2025; WAS - 9-30 in 2026; 2027 2nd if not conveyed)

Knicks Receive
Chris Boucher
Christian Wood

Knicks get a solid rotation player in exchange for an oft-injured Mitchell Robinson and a 1st that seems destined to become a 2nd Round Pick.

No from Toronto. They can get Robinson for an expiring Boucher if they want. He's injury prone and not a difference maker. Vincent and JV are overpaid and bad role players. The WAS pick won't convey and its obvious the league has vested interest in the Lakers remaining good.

This is TOR getting a better return than DAL got for Luka.

Huh? Excuse me. Robinson, plus two terrible contracts in Jared Vanderbilt and Gabriel Vincent and pick that will never convay with Washington clearly rebuilding and isn't good plus a pick 6 years away isn't y better than AD. If that's the case we send this weak package to Dallas for AD

Come on now, why are NY giving up Robinson, Kolek, and a 1st for Boucher? He not a rebounder, shot blocker. He's a 200 lbs PF
making 1.5 3's per game. Who minutes is he going to take?

Toronto is probably going to keep Boucher, who wants to stay, if the offers aren't up to par.

You failed to answer the question. How is this more? Robinson has yet to play this year has been injury prone in his previous years and owed $14.5 million this year and $12 million next year. Kolek is a G-League dime a dozen guy but Toronto eats $2.5 million a year for the next 3 years for what a 4th or 5th string PG?

This is awful for Toronto. Again Anthony Davis is better 100x than a Washington pick we'd never get a second and bad salary.

Boucher is more than a 3 point shooter he's a undervalued shot blocker he's better than Sims. IMHO Achiuwa is your backup PF and Boucher is your backup C. It f you don't want to be part of the deal fine we will take ourselves out it's not a great return like you said in your initial post.

I don't mind this for Lakers Side of things.

Can Lakers offer Reaves instead of Vando? I don't think Lakers looking to trade Vando and we'll need his Defense and Reaves Luka backcourt not a good mix
