Sure we'll take Luka

Pops and team will get his rear end in check physically FAST. Wemby/Luka/Castle instant dynasty. We need to start sending feelers out there to LA. :lol:

Luka will just waste another a year of his prime being LA playing alongside LeOldie who he can't play with since both guys are so ball dominant and will never fit. His crappy defense won't be such of an issue here

Yes. But consider 1. It's LA who we don't deal with and 2. Salaries have to match and 3. Would those draft picks be better served elsewhere?

I agree we have to at some point consider consolidating assets to get better while Wemby is still on his rookie contract. We did just use several picks to get Fox and he's likely extending with us. We do value defense. I'd target, for example, Giannis or Bam were either to become available, or a back up big, or a starting SF depending on how the draft positioning slots out, before throwing assets on a position we already filled in a previous trade, although Luka alongside a dynamic PG had already been proven to be successful.

We have a lot of team needs and are more than a big swing trade away from contending in a sustainable way.
