Yes but there is no indication we can get AD without giving Tatum.

They should be happy to get Smart Rozier couple draft picks and some filler.

Yeah think they're going to do better than that

Here's a conspiracy theory.

Ainge was behind AD signing with Klutch. And told AD to ask to be traded to the Lakers. Thus lowering the asking price for AD as he would be seen as a rental.

Then told Kyrie to hire ROC so the Nets cleared room for you and you could take that to the negotiating table with NO, as a flight risk if you dealt Tatum, you could lose Kyrie and AD in consecutive years.

Are we really of the consensus that we can make this happen without giving up Tatum? How exactly is the Memphis pick worth more than the Lakers 4th?

I mean no disrespect but some of you thinking were getting this deal done WITHOUT BOTH Brown or Tatum? Come on now.

The Lakers have no business being in the Anthony Davis sweepstakes. Kuzma, Ingram, Lonzo, 4th pick in this draft? For Anthony Davis?

That’s a joke.

Who is New Orleans taking with the 4th?

One thing people need to realize why the Celtics should go all in if they can either get Kyrie to buy in or find a Kyrie replacement (Conley, Russell) is because the nba championship may be wide open for the first time in a long ass time next season with Durant being out for the season. You get AD, 1 of Tatum or brown, Hayward, Horford, possibly Kyrie, that team is the favorites to win it all. You got to take that chance if there is a feeling the Celtics can get a legit point guard out of all this once they trade for Davis. I still feel Kawhi is going out west and even if he stays, I still think the Celtics would be a better team than the raps next season regardless. Bucks and Sixers can lose their key players in free agency. Let’s take a chance on a damn championship that this current roster had no shot in winning and worry about the Davis stuff afterwards

Well, NO has to find something that tops Brown, Smart, picks, etc. first.

Honestly. That Laker package is better than this deal. Even without Kuzma.

You can say this as much as you want, but its simply not true. If it was it would’ve been done during the season or NOW. Since its not done you can’t say they have a better package.

The same quality of player they could get at 14 from us.

There is no indication the Celtics can't get AD without giving Tatum.

I agree.

I just don’t see a deal happening without giving up Tatum unless it’s a 3 team trade with Hayward or Horford going out for assets for the pelicans but I don’t see that happening.

Not from what I have been reading. Their offer is total trash with out Kuzma. Not joking around on this.

Who is New Orleans taking with the 4th?

and who are they taken with 15th pick in 2020?

The point is outside the Top 3 in this draft you can throw everyone else in a pot and pick one. The 4th pick doesn't have a ton of value. Which is why the reported rumor is the Pelicans told the Lakers to go take the 4th pick and go out and get us a player we like.

Depends on how you feel about Smart I suppose, especially on a team going no where any time soon.

But if Kuzma, Ingram, Ball and the 4th overall pick is trash then the Lakers have ZERO shot at this and we all should theoretically move on from the idea that they are getting him. It just seems like if thats the true case then the Celtics already won the trade without even doing anything.

Andrew McCeltic · Post #855 » by **Andrew McCeltic** » Thu Jun 13, 2019 5:35 pm

The rumor this morning out of LA is that the Pelicans supposedly rate Kuzma the best of all the Lakers' "assets", to the point that LA could keep the fourth pick and draft Garland (a Rich Paul client) if they put Kuzma in the deal.

You must consider this a good draft then.

If NO valued the 4th pick at all, they wouldnt be making LA shop it for a different player.

You can say this as much as you want, but its simply not true. If it was it would’ve been done during the season or NOW. Since its not done you can’t say they have a better package.

If that isnt enough to get the deal done then the Lakers are already out on the trade.

Well yes, I dont think its a good draft either but I would prefer the 4th pick to the 3 picks we have combined.

Its not that I value those players, its just that Brown and Smart to me arent much superior to those players. Smart is otherworldly defensively but to me, thats it. Brown has never impressed me, I think Stevens can pull similar production from any of the Lakers players. Well not Ball, hes trash.

Possible no brown but no Tatum is just ridiculous thinking it’s not even worth responding
