Alright, got real stupid with it! Get paid to take on Lavine, hopefully "rehab" his value, let him gun from the 2nd unit, and move him with less time on his deal next offseason. Bulls take a flyer on a young entering his prime Ayton over Vuc, while dumping Lavine on us. We get our pick back and their 27 pick. Magic move Anthony and 2 1sts for Simons. Am unsure on their space after KCP, so smaller filler can be added if needed. We get a prospect in Howard, and their and Denvers 25 picks. Lakers get Grant to make Lebron happy(if it's possible, depending on their salary issues) for Knecht, and their 29 pick.

Future draft for us:

25 PDX
25 Denver
25 Orlando
26 PDX
27 PDX
27 Chicago
28 PDX(swap with Mil.)
29 LAL
29 Best and worst of PDX, Mil, Boston
2030 PDX (swap with Mil.)

Scoot/Anthony/Blanton
Sharpe/Lavine/Thybulle
Camara/Knecht/Rupert
Advija/Walker/Murray
Vuc/Clingan/RWIII/Reath

Look to then move Thybulle, and RWIII or Reath.

That would be pretty crazy, though I like Nate's Ayton deal. Swap that in in place of your Chicago deal, and we'd have quite the rebuild.

3 team deal where Ingram goes elsewhere. Although I question whether we'd actually look to move Ayton.

Based on cronin press conference, we are not looking to move deandre, but if there is a no-brainer offer, no one should be untouchable

I could really get behind a lineup of

Scoot
Sharpe
Murray
Avdija
Clingan

And then whoever we can get in the 2025 draft, but that's a really damn complete starting lineup.

Speaking of the 25' draft. What would be easier to find?....another scoring center like Ayton or another scoring SF like Keegan?

I hear you, and like I said before, I want to keep Ayton. For at least this year. I'm not in love with trying to start a rookie center.

With that said, Ayton is up for an extension soon. Do you really want to pay him what he probably thinks he's worth?

That's the plan, that's why we drafted Clingan, to trade Ayton before we have to extend him
 
My hope is Deandre loves it enough here to sign a team friendly deal.

I'm not sure anyone would call Keegan a "scoring" small forward. He's incredibly mediocre. I'd love to move Ayton and it wouldn't even take that much for me, but say no to Keegan. He's a career backup.

The chances that happens is the same one that Jody decides to sell the team this summer and that LeBron says screw my son I want to play in Portland for Vet's min

so no chance in HELL

Send out Grant and Ayyton, bring in Ingram Rui filler and picks.

I'd look to then send out Ingram... feel like we'd get better value doing them as two separate trades. More teams can use a player like Ingram than Ayton.
 
Any trade ideas that actually return a player worth a bucket of spit? So tired of these ideas of sending out solid players for junk and a pick or two that could possibly turn into a decent player a few years down the road.

I think the idea is not to wait until 2029 or anything like that but to amass picks for trades like the one that brought Avdija here or hopefully one that lands a legit star prospect when Scoot, Shaedon and whoever else have shown us that they're ready to roll into the playoffs.

So I do not mind trading a win now guy for win later assets right now, in fact I will mind it if we don't do it.

Probably need to send out a draft pick for that, or find a Kyrie Irving type player that a team can buy low on right now.

Maybe bring in Miles Bridges? He's a great baller, but yeah beating your wife in front of the kids probably isn't great.

He's a very good player. If he has repented for his sins and that's good enough for Cronin and company, I'm okay with it.

I don't know what other buy-low options there are. I look at the teams trying to get better now. Rockets, Pistons, Pacers to name a few. All three have nice young players that could fit with what we're doing.
 
The Lakers seem to be running out of options. They have to feel the pressure to upgrade now. Just deal us Knecht and fillers and keep your other picks. He's 1 mid round pick.

No. As you said, he's just 1 mid-round pick; that's not enough for Grant.

We get 2 1s from LAL(and a few other picks need to switch teams)

Lyles and/or DLo get sent out or bought out?

So I'm the last person to say lets run it back with Jerami and Ant hogging the ball, going iso and fucking up the development of the guys I expect to be here when we get back in the playoffs... but if the other option is gifting the Lakers Jerami for a guy whose ceiling is JJ Redick and whose likely landing spot is Tim Legler. I say lets run that shit back.

I want Joe to move Jerami and Ant. I think there are likely moves to be made where we get a fair return for those guys. It's suspicious to me that Joe keeps on coming up empty when other GMs can make moves that make sense for their roster. With all of that said these are good players that have to have value in this league so there is no fucking way we should be giving them away for shit like Knecht. I'm cool if Knecht is part of the return with an unprotected first and filler players that may be flipped for some second rounders but Nah man we shouldn't just fucking give Jerami to a team where he could mean the difference between contention and a first round exit.

I don't hate it and I think both Lyles and DLo could be flipped for second rounders. I don't think they would need to be bought out. I would hope to find another team for Ingram, don't really love the idea of him being a leader on this young team. I think he would probably thrive more on a team with established guys leading him closer to his potential and maybe we pick up a couple more unprotected firsts for him.

Knecht is potentially the missing piece to our long term starting 5. Most mocks had him as a top 10 pick. We don't really want Grant anyway. If we could get a prospect like Knecht for him, I'd say take it and run.

We only acquired him for a 1st round pick,that will likely be rather late (the Bucks next year). So how much has his stock grown now that he's older and on a large contract?
 
Laker fans seem to be pumped about adding DDR and I don’t get it. He can’t shoot.
