And what exactly are you on? If you can't find a better way to contribute to the forum than one-line insults, you'd probably have more fun elsewhere.



Well it's the truth because some of these trade ideas don't make sense. Also picking on Lonzo has to stop because if we trade and he gets better and what ever we get turns into a bust then we're screwed, and it will be all loveshaq's fault.

Please stop with the inclusion of Lonzo, Kuzma and Ingram in Deng trades. Sometimes incl two of the three with Clev draft pick to take back a player with just as much salary.

I understand why the morons on the GB do it. Unless there is a HUGE opportunity that presents itself we are NOT trading our youth just to dump Deng.

Deng can be traded with the Clev pick and future first. It’s been spoken into existence.

Okay,... Let's say we trade Luol Deng the 25th pick, zubac and a future first for Kevin Love? Do you think that's a fair trade? If it is I can see Oklahoma Trading Paul George for Kevin Love, so they don't lose him for nothing. Do you agree?

Cleveland is not doing that. They can get assets for Love and the package they receive is that of a Deng salary dump.

From my understanding they try to trade Kevin Love, and they couldn't even get Carmelo Anthony for him

That is, by all accounts, not correct at all.

trade 1- the best of all, 3 team trade which benefit all of them and will make lakers the number one contender for the title next year:

wolves get- ingram, frye, ennis, hart, zubac (all 17.2 mill)
clippers get- lonzo, deng (23 mill)
lakers get- d.jordan and jimmy butler. (41 mill)

why for the wolves? butler finish his contract next year and they can lose him for nothing, ingram give them a good young player under cheap contract for 3 years who can develop next to towns and wiggs. the other are just to fill the salary diffrences.

why for the clippers? instead of losing deandre for nothing this free agency, they get lonzo who has a lot of potential. also the bad contract of deng, but they on rebuild anyway so it won't interupt them to much...it's simillar to the lopez-ruselll+mozgov trade.


Why would a guy named Jerry West, whose fingerprints are all over the Warriors build, even be a consideration for a lonzo?

Balmer brought in Jerry to make his impression there.

Unless West is acquiring some draft picks, your Clipper scenario won't ever occur.

We all just have to wait for the first signing to happen before we know what is Pelinka/Magic's direction for our team.

Where does this come from? It would be a horrible move to get Melo for Love, so I really doubt any competent GM would ever try to do something like this.

How realistic are you.
DLillard????
Our 1'st rounder to offer isn't high enough for consideration.
I could see Portland in a perfect scenario offering him the supermax opportunity.
Allen isn't going to let him go.

Alrighty just thought of the perfect sequence of trades that'll take us to the promised land

Deng + 2 FRP + SRP + cash for pure cap space

We then tell LBJ to sign with us cuz he's getting ALL the help in the world now. Also LBJ and PG13 need to sign first as we're about to balloon bust the cap.

Cuz we dropping a deuce on the league by stealing a disgruntled Kawhi who's posse steers him out. **** all the haters who jizzed their pants after "basketball reasons".

LAL gets
Kawhi Leonard
Patty Mills - we EAT alot of salary here which is another massive incentive for SAS to pull the trigger

SAS gets
Brandon Ingram
assloads of cap space

DAL gets
Julius Randle S&T 3 years 54 mil, frontloaded, 3rd year Player Option

Lakers get Kawhi... yea sadly we had to eat Patty Mill terrible deal, but ****, we got Kawhi.

Spurs get their Kawhi replacement who they can hold onto with a death grip for the next 6 years (2 year left on rookie deal and RFA). They save oodles of cap to go FA hunting next year. Basically theyre LMA + Ingram + nothing else, thats a NICE spot to be in.

Mavs get their Texan boi in Randle on a REASONABLE deal. No need to throw a silly rookie max with poison pills at Randle. We help Randle get paid and Mavs get a nice piece to build around.

EVERYONE WINS!

Except for the Laker haters. **** em

If we wish to play the FA game in 2019 instead, we can afford to take on salary for some valuable picks.

Faried + #14 from Denver (Expires in 2018-19)
Gasol + #18 from San Antonio could both be in play (Non-guaranteed after 2018-19 and it would be great to mend fences with Pau to let him retire as a Laker)
Philly would likely move Bayless + a first if they get lucky in free agency as well (Expires in 2018-19)

3 prospects + our own first in 2018-19 should be good ammunition to dump Deng next year.

Ball - Bayless
Hart -
Ingram -
Randle - Kuzma - Faried
Gasol - Zu - Bryant

Fill in the blanks with picks.

In that case we should absolutely look to move into the top 10 and try and nab Bamba if we can if he falls past 5 (idk, 14, 18 + Zubac for 6, 7 or 8). Bamba-Kuzma-Ingram-Hart-Ball is a good core to begin with.

Even with 14 and 18 we could very well end up with Zhaire Smith and Robert Williams which would be a good haul.

Still, i think its hard to see George not coming, so worst case scenario we could do one of those deals (probably Faried + 14 for 25, i can't see Denver not wanting something in return).

Mo Bamba is going top 3 and I think every pick after that will be in play for trades.

Its also worth thinking if PG is the only player you get, do you sign him and fight for the 8th seed or take on salary, gather assets and go hard at free agency in 2019? There's an intriguing debate worth having.

If the Lakers can guarantee Lebron, Paul George, and Randle or another superstar to sign with the Lakers, do you think this trade is fair to unload Deng’s contract?

Atlanta gets
Luol Deng
Kyle Kuzma
25th pick

Lakers get
Atlanta’s 34th Pick

Atlanta gets to rebuild and potential have four 1st round picks in this years draft.. picks 3, 19, 25, 30 and Kyle Kuzma to play alongside John Collins.

Lakers roster looks something like..

Lonzo Ball
Paul George/Josh Hart
Brandon Ingram
Lebron James
Julius Randle

Lakers could fill out the roster with the 34th, 47th pick, and sign veterans deals and maybe use the MLE?

Personally, I would rather trade Ingram than Kuzma. Ingram is the better overall talent, but he would be kind of redundant with James and George. I would consider Ingram/Deng for #19, #30 and #34.
