I imagine because at the time they didn't have Kanter and Favors :dunno: 8+M on a backup big that can't play C?

Whichever one works. I don't think GSW care which one Lakers pick.

I still think Barnes makes more sense. MWP sucks and Kobe plays SG.

They are praying for either one right now on LA radio.

They were injured.

I don't think they're that much worse honestly, but then again, I don't think much of Iggy. They are definitely not better though.

Oh yeah, I forgot about Gallinari. And I like their young Frenchie, and they have Gallinari and Wilson Chandler, and they'll almost certainly re-sign Brewer, so they're pretty stacked at the wings even without Iggy.

Well they also lost their starting C for a bench PF.

There's no chance they do that. I mean hell, if they were willing to give up BOTH Barnes and Klay, I'm sure the Lakers would agree to a S/T for Howard.
 
Up to this point Favors has been a disappointment for them. Especially offensively. They still like him, but their expectations have been lowered.
He needs to improve.

Barnes/Klay are unnecessary with Curry/Iggy in the mix. Its D12's decision on where he wants to go, not the L*kers. Its about this theory to stack your team with as many allstars as you can...Barnes and Klay are not...and may not be for several several years..if at all.

Right...so if Dwight chooses GSW, Lakers would do a S/T.

It seriously looks like Dwight is just waiting on GSW to be able to sign/trade for him. If he really wanted to go to Houston he would have said so by now,
 
EL PRESIDENTE said:
Yeah, if he chooses Houston, then GS might still try to target an elite big man like Aldridge.

Curry/Iggy/Aldridge/Bogut and peanuts everywhere else.

Highly doubt they move both Klay and Barnes.
 
Here is to hoping Houston is still in the lead. No reason to help both GS and LA

Well, those are those tradable assets, so they either go big or go home. Why would they need like 4 wing guys that do the same thing?

He will never, ever be an allstar in the NBA.

That's fine with me.

Elite defender, elite rebounder - and he is only 21 years old.

Has all the tools to have an elite offensive game.

Hayward is above average.

Lillard, Wes, Batum, Favors, Lopez

McCollum, Crabbe, Hayward, T-Rob, Meyers

Then you can package Batum/Meyers/Wes or whatever for a true all-star.

The team is better with Klay/Barnes/Lee over just LMA.

Just saying....

Also, Houston fans right now are thinking they can get LMA if Dwight chooses Golden State. :lol:

I fail to see what they have to offer though.

It is, but if Iggy wants to play with Aldridge or D12, which is possible, then they'll have to make it happen. He had to make some demands on signing there for less money.

Meyers Leonard is older than Derrick Favors - and, not true. Utah was expected to let Millsap and Al Jeff go BECAUSE they had faith in Kanter and Favors.

The most rebounds he got last year was like 15. And he averaged less than 8...so it didn't happen all that much. This is just another guy blazer fans are inexplicably in love with for god knows whatever reason. the new ramon sessions perhaps.

your vision sucks.
 
Trading Wes and LMA at the same time might make sense if we're getting a young wing back.

For instance, if we trade w/GSW for something like Bogut or Lee and Barnes or Thompson...

don't get me wrong, I like Wes, but he's also potentially gone in 2 years. And he fits much better as a 3-and-D 4th or 5th option on a contending team than as our starting 2. :dunno:
