Based on where we are right now, is it safe to say, we'll have a Top 5 pick?

Sure, why not.
If the deal comes with a draft pick of any kind, even better..

Man, a Jordan Hill trade to the Nets and the Pau-Okafor trade gets the Lakers under the tax.

Mitch needs to pull a Mickey during his negotiations in moving Pau.

id think Brooklyn would prefer Kaman. i dont even think brookyln has any picks to offer in any deal.
i looked over the salaries on their roster, and had to
at the fact that joe johnsons deal will be over when kobe's extension ends.
80 percent kobe at 36-37 will still be better than that deal

Joe Johnson... is T.R.A.S.H.
5% Kobe @ 36-37 would be better than him at that point.

Like the Nets 2025 first rounder? Pretty sure that's their next available pick to trade.

Lakers possible roster after the trade deadline.. Yikes
Without Hill, Blake & Pau.. Possible without Kaman as well..
Nash / Farmar / Marshall
Meeks
Wes
Kelly (Shawne eventually re-signed)
Sacre
Team may not win a single game the rest of the season.

Steve Blake is trash. If there was one NBA player I think I could beat. It's steve Blake. I'm just venting. This season is a mess.

Golden State lookin at Blake.
Hill to Brook.
Pau to Phoenix.
Just need someone to buy Kaman and Swaggy.
Give me one first, and 2-3 2nd rounders and I'd be thrilled, considering we'd lock up a top 4 pick and have massive cap space the next couple years.
Just wish we had full control of our #1 next year. Don't want to have to tank again, this fan base would crumble.

With out a doubt, this franchise has turned into a 'mess'. They gave a lot of folks 1 year, 2 year type deals. We'll just have to wait and see. There's nothing to really get excited about anyway. Kobe is probably going to not return and turn this around. The biggest player with trade value is possibly Pau. But if LA wants to run and gun and go young, it's best to just ship all the old guys away.

What you guys need to realize was it was BOUND TO HAPPEN.
We couldn't skate forever. Even if we got CP3 and Dwight. They both stayed, and Phil. It'd be 2016 or 2017 when this would happen. This year was 3 decades in the making.
It wasn't Jim Buss' fault, wasn't Mitch Kupchak's fault, wasn't even Jerry Buss' fault (even though he made the blueprint of win now, sacrifice the future, but did it to appease the fans). Because it worked, but nothing works forever.
The slander given to Jim Buss is not fair because the iceberg hit the ship on the day that Chris Paul trade was vetoed. The sinking was coming, when it came it didn't matter, it was a matter of time.

Top 5 this year + top 5 next year rather than giving the pick to Phoenix should be a no brainer, but after what I seen this year, dudes would be a mess.
Just have to pray Mitch can pry Indy pick + our pick next year. #Miracle
That pick is gone bro.
Won't get a Pick sending Blake to the Warriors (they don't have a second round pick until 2019)
Nor would you get a Pick sending Hill to the Nets. (they don't have a second round pick until 2017)
Neither of those second round picks are worth making a deal for. So you have to pick 1 to salary dump. The other to get a pick.
Then you trade Pau. Maybe look to Charlotte, and try to pry the Portland pick, maybe it creates a bidding war with Phoenix. If Charlotte has no interest Pau for 30th pick & their 2nd Rounder. 31-45 protected.
Kaman to anywhere for a second.
Hold onto Meeks, unless he nets you a first round pick. I think he will be a relatively valuable contract, that could be moved next year.
