I think the Lakers are one player away from that again.
Minnesota: Corey Brewer+Jason Hart
Los Angeles Lakers: Morrison+Memphis 2nd+Knicks 2nd+cash to make up the difference in salary
Why for Minnesota: Brewer just has not fit in as a starter and can't create his own offense well enough to play on a team devoid of scoring talent. Kahn wants to open cap room in 2010 as far as I've heard and would save money next year while adding two very high second round picks, arguably worth as much as two first round picks considering the differences in salary.
Why for Los Angeles: Brewer's cost next year is fair at 3.5m and he'd be the backup at large SG and undersized SF. We'd try to make him into our next Trevor Ariza. There's plenty to work with as far as Brewer goes and he'd match Farmar and Shannon Brown's speed.

loves those long and athletic players. Portland would be willing to send an
expiring contract and perhaps a lottery protected #1 pick for Brewer.
