LAL-POR-SAS Trade

[rambo_ortega]

Lakers Get:
Jerami Grant

They get a player that they've been eyeing for years

AD/Rui/Grant/James/Reaves

Blazers Get:
Keldon Johnson
Gabe Vincent

They get a young SF and a veteran PG

Clingan/Ayton/Keldon/Ant/Scoot

Spurs Get:
DAngelo Russell

He's one of those players that I see fitting with Wemby that would be good for his development

Wemby/Sochan/Vasell/DLo/Jones

[Waynearchetype]

Blazers want picks for Grant not vets

[tester551]

I don't see any motivation for Portland to do this.
Neither Johnson nor Vincent help with the direction Portland is heading in

[zzaj]

DOA. Blazers have their young SF now in Deni. Blazers can fill in with vets as needed and can get at least get SOME value for Grant.

[Chinook]

The Spurs aren't trading Keldon to play Russell and Jones as their starting back court.

[psman2]

Russell would have opted out if the Spurs wanted to pay him. Grapevine is real. Portland holds out for filler/1st over just filler.

[kobe_vs_jordan]

Spurs could have signed Russel if they wanted him.

[JRoy]

Hard pass for POR.

Don’t want either incoming guy, no incentive to downgrade from Grant.
