AD for KAT

[Asianiac_24]

Simple 1 for 1, AD for KAT

Why for Lakers?
- Gets the younger big at a slight downgrade. LeBron likes shooters, and KAT is a big that can space the floor for him.

Why for Wolves?
- Go all in on their big, defensive build. AD/Gobert in the front court is going to have some spacing issues, but the defense will be absolutely phenomenal.

I think you'd need ADs blessing.

[Mamba4Goat]

Good god, running a NAW, Edwards, McDaniels, Davis, Gobert lineup could be filthy defensively.

I don’t think Minnesota does this as AD isn’t the strongest floor spacer and could make it a lot easier to really crowd the paint with him+Gobert on the floor. If I was LAL I’d be asking for multiple pick swaps arguing that I’m giving up an All-NBA level player for an All Star.

If Anthony Davis isn’t committed to finishing his career in MIN (which I doubt he would be), I don’t think MIN can say yes. In this age of player empowerment, players of AD’s level can demand a trade, and MIN might get stuck, especially if he only names one destination. Love KAT or hate him, no one can doubt Towns commitment to Minnesota and helping Anthony Edwards become a star, and those qualities are hard to replace.

[Colbinii]

This made sense before the acquisition of Gobert.

It could work for Minnesota, but I'm not sure the complete lack of spacing works.

For the Lakers, AD is a Top 5 player when healthy and locked-in, which isn't always but is much higher ceiling than what we have seen from Towns on a game to game basis.

I think the idea would be to pair AD and Towns.

Gobert + Reid + #27 + 2031 Wolves 1st

FOR

AD + Vincent

Lakers get more ammo for their guard acquisition. Rui + Russell + Picks = ___________

Gobert | Reid
Reid | James
James | JV
Reaves
???

Wolves go all-in.
AD
Towns
McDaniels
Edwards | NAW
Conley | Vincent

[One_and_Done]

Makes no sense for either team.

[Threezus]

Hawks need to be in here somewhere as we could use either of those guys to pair with Johnson and Sarr. We got a PG for either of the 2 teams depending who they want.

[JustBuzzin]

Lebron would have a head full of grey hair playing with KAT for a full season. That man IQ would drive Bron Bron cray cray!


Lakers can get much more for AD.
