I don't see why Minnesota would do that.

Rubio, Love, Pau = deadly big 3

The Magic would get good young talent in return, not only the best center, also a promising player in Williams

I don't understand why some fellow Laker fans here would not like this trade, It's not just Pau+Drew for Dwight, Beasley & Barrea in return would be amazing as well, Beasley is a young talent that I believe can be directed to become even better with a winning attitude team such as the Lakers, we would also get much needed PG help by the guy who pretty much killed us with his penetration in the playoffs, also would be receiving the best center in the NBA, don't forget #24 is still on the team. Of course I would only like this going down if we do end up getting Wallace as well.

Barrea
Kobe
Beasley
Wallace
Dwight

We become instant contenders once again + get younger


You seriously think Rasheed can start?

If im orlando I force the Lakers to take Hedo with the TPE.
A Bynum Williams front court could be beastly plus capspace and picks. Im liking that

As for Minny, Id hate to face a Love, Gasol front court with Rubio running tthe show. I think its pretty good for them also.

Lakers well Howard is the the BEST big man in the game you got to pony up if you want him. A kobe, Howard duo would be down right nasty.

I think its pretty good for all teams if Orlando dumps Hedo in the proces.

the lakers are looking to dwight to take over once kobe decides to call it a career.


Exactly. I don't really think it matters to them that they're giving up the best front court in the NBA. LA needs it's big name, regardless. Sure, it could come through free agency, but I severely doubt it'd come via draft.

Wallace from out of the league to a starter, not a good idea bro. Does everyone think we won't use our TPE in a trade and why? we could pick someone decent up for that

Let a long time Laker fan put some validity to this............AIN'T HAPPEN'IN. This trade will dissolved our advantage we've had the last 4 years.....a big front court. Howard and a used Wallace won't cut it period. And trying to infuse 1/4 of a new team into a team that's still learning a new system isn't smart at all.

Again this is a pipe dream that won't happen.

The TPE isn't big enough for Hedo, they can take Big Baby though.

How much more do they possibly want?? They can have MWP or Fisher if they'd like. Other than that, I think it's a pretty fair trade for everyone.

So we trade the best front court in the NBA and we still need to eat up Hedo's awful contract? :lol:
Flip Beasley to the Magic and we take Anderson and Reddick.

Not starting PF decent. I don't see Houston having any desire to move Scola like you suggested earlier for it. They were only wanting to move Scola if it brought them Gasol in return.

wolves already have pek, the frontcourt gets crowded if this happens.

Well they have a hard on for Pau. They said they won't give up Love/Rubio, but everyone else is available. So it makes some sense.

Seriously, the Wolves would be no joke. Love and Rubio are very young with Pau a Veteran proven winner, plus Pau's game doesn't rely on athleticism, so he could easily play at the same level till he is 36-38, like Jason Kidd/Steve Nash.
