In the 2026 off-season, Lebron is projected to retire, and the Lakers are projected to have a ton of cap space. Lakers could also trade for Luka...
Yeah because they are tanking. Everything is the opposite when you are talking. Part of me was hoping Gabe would get hurt so his value would...
They had to get him off of their team LOL.
I really hope they were not just being cheap. Yeah good point about us cutting someone. Maybe we cut Hayes or something, and then convert...
Isn't DFS a power forward? We already have Lebron and Rui.
I would have been open to trading Austin straight up for Herb Jones or the LaVine trade with Coby White also coming back. But now, I am feeling...
Yup. Dlo/Vincent/Wood/2029 1st (top 7 protected), and 2031 1st (unprotected) to Brookyln for Cam Johnson/Sharpe works and leave Lakers 6.2 million...
Russell, Vincent, Hayes, 2029 1st (top-13 protected), 2031 1st (unprotected) to Brooklyn for Johnson and Sharpe. The Lakers take back 5.67 million...
Reaves/Dlo/Rui/Wood/2029 1st/2031 1st for Fox/Huerter. Then, you still have Gabe/JHS/Hayes/Maxwell to try and get a center.
Hopefully, we only have to give up a first.
Dlo/Gabe/Hayes/ two firsts for Johnson/Sharpe opens up 5.67 million under the apron. Heck, we still would have JHS/Wood, etc. to use in a trade...
I mean yeah, there is a way. But it would take some cap gymnastics. Just because Gabe is playing well doesn't mean we must hold on to him now....
Yeah, I have a feeling it's going to be something along those lines. We have to take back 4.5 million less in trade though to leave some cushion...
Yeah, but AD isn't even a big analytics guy, so he doesn't know any better. I think overall, he is respectful though, and lets the front office...
Why? We don't need a starting calibar center, we only need a back up.
Dlo,Gabe,JHS,Lewis, 2029 1st (top 13 protected), 2031 1st (unprotected), 2025 2nd, 2026 2nd to Brooklyn for Johnson, Sharpe, and Wilson works....
Well I guess, technically the 2027 pick could be traded with the condition that it is in the top 4. If it's not in the top 4, it gets conveyed to...
He said a player or players(s). I don't see any one player that really stands out from those 4 teams, but a good package of players could be put...
I didn't know we have three first-round picks to trade. I thought it was only 2029 and 2031 and swaps in 2026,2027, and 2030.
Could also be done with LaVine, only without the picks.
