[dceja]

Lol they ain't beating GS even with PG. 

 

[mosk33toe]

Moz, 28, and Upcoming 1st

In a ******* heart beat....

Much rather keep Deng than Moz

No real point of keeping deng if we have PG and Ingram.

 

[MVP]

Deng, Clarkson #28/2020 1st, take it or leave it Indy. 

 

[EddieDoyers]

Lowe just tweeted the Pacers want to move on a PG deal fast.

Bless their hearts

 

[essential1]

If you play

George (35)
BI (35)
DLo (33)
Ball (30)
Randle (2
Zu (20)
Moz (15)
Nwaba (12)
Brewer (10)

That leaves about 22 minutes left. Most of that time would be at the 2, and the 5.


Allows us to trade Clarkson, Nance Jr., Deng & Black plus picks, and take a chance on a couple of people on 1 year deals with 2nd year options


Then going into 2018, Moz stretched, Brewer gone, you'd have 2 spots to fill with PG... A 3 & D at the 2 off the bench, and a rim protector, and you lock in

Idk man especially if klay leaves

 

[Lizakers]

Moving a 22 year old lottery pick that has shown promise in a trade for a guy who has now explicitly said he'll sign outright to the team is idiotic any way you slice it.

If you really want to move him, you trade him for something else, not for a guy who's willing to sign with you outright and has zero trade value after that Woj report.

It's not idiotic if they don't want to resign Randle

This is a one year shot for CLE, Bron is gone after next season too and so will PG, Klay under contract for 2 more years.

It's idiotic when that guy shares the same agent as Paul George... Don't piss off an agent... Pelinka knows better

 

[ValarMorghulis]

Agreed^^^

Bald Bron coming in to play the 4 anyway

 

[Lizakers]

All hypothetical of course, but Randle to Indy might please his agent if Indy is willing to max him out and LA isn't

Anyways, I was hoping we can keep JC and Randle here when we start winning. They been through the worst 3 Laker seasons ever

 

[moonman818]

Saw D Fish and Gloria with Matt's kids in downtown Culver earlier


She thick af

 

[MambaMentality824]

I know IND has no leverage really but I feel like some team will offer better than a Deng+ Clarkson package which is pretty much garbage.

 

[essential1]

Just to be a master troll, what if the Lakers were able to hold Josh Jackson hostage from the Celtics... Get them to swap # 2 for # 3 and a future first..... And then use that future 1st as part of the package to get Paul George... And in the meantime screwing the Celtics because our pick would go from 6th to probably 13th

 

[Johnny_Cakes]

I wouldn't want to risk our #2 pick on taking someone we don't intend to keep because we think that the Celtics will negotiate with us for that player.

 

[Retroballer]

Basically. Celtics would just take Ball and say thanks.

 

[MVP]

Take Zo. We have our own future 1st to give anyway if it comes to that. 

 

[sohi 23]

Take Lonzo and don't look back.

 

[dceja]

2020 1st Clarkson and 28 for pg...I'm sure they won't take moz/deng

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

E you gotta chill bro

 

[essential1]

E you gotta chill bro

Let me dream of ways to make that hell hole city of Boston suffer.

 

[MambaMentality824]

De'Aaron Fox>>>Lonzo

Think Lonzo will be a solid PG and has a pretty high floor but his ceiling is limited. Fox can be special... At this point though Ive already settled in on Zo I don't see us taking anyone else.

 

[Retroballer]

Take Zo. We have our own future 1st to give anyway if it comes to that. 

Can't trade your first until 2019 though. That impacts the value.
