I don't think they would.
But maybe a WB for Dennis, KCP, THT _________________ 💜💛 🏆 👀 🍖 #18!!! |

He won a championship in real life. You arm chair from the internet in way that you actually believe you know more than him which makes it all the more funny. |
You put LBJ and AD on 29 other teams in the league and see how many other GMs look championship quality. Him winning one doesn’t mean he is immune to bad deals. By that measure, we should’ve kept Mitch forever since he won 5. |

The Lakers will probably have to overpay in a trade.
1. They are the Lakers. Nobody wants to help them win another championship.
2. The Lakers are capped out. _________________ Nobody in the NBA can touch the Laker brand, which, like the uniform color, is pure gold. |

I would assume it's more meant to be they offered a deal including Harrell and whoever the Kings prefer more, Kuzma or KCP. _________________

Great. Whatever moves he made got us a ring. He followed that up by making us better on paper unfortunately we got hurt. However Rob is better at his job than anybody here at his job.
Would’ve, should’ve, are easy . What we think he should do is great for banter but reality we have no idea what can and can’t be done.
My favorite is people say no one wants to help the lakers yet cry when we can’t work out deals with other teams. |

If we include that 22 pick for the Hield trade, I think the chances of Dennis staying goes up. |

While everyone is foaming at the mouth for a trade... minimum level guys I'd like:
Timothe Luwawu-Cabarot (Don't know if he's priced himself to BAE level)
Ish Smith
Kief
Melo
James Johnson
Dwight
Ben
Wes |

We wouldn't be hardcapped though so we're free to re-sign whomever remains after the trade between Caruso, Horton-Tucker, Matthews, and Morris as necessary. We'll also have the MMLE to bring in a quality player. |

Wizards like taking chances on prospects, they might be intrigued with taking a chance on Marvin Bagley. if a Westbrook trade is lined up after we acquire Buddy Hield and we get Bagley in the trade I wouldn’t be surprised if Bagley is routed to WAS. |

My ideal scenario is Kuz/Harrell/22 for Hield+2nd, KCP for Ingles/30th, resign Schroder, sign DeRozan for MLE/MMLE. Fill out the roster with minimum guys like Melo, Luwalet-Cabaret, Iggy, Dwight, Ish Smith, etc.
Hield, Ingles, DeRozan and Schroder add shooting, shot making and play making to our offense much more well rounded. Would like to keep Caruso, but not sure if the money works for us.
Final Roster:
Schroder/THT/Ish Smith
Hield/DeRozan/Iggy
Bron/Ingles/Luwalet-Cabaret
AD/Melo
Dwight/Gasol

That would be ideal as we would need a 3-and-D player who is in his 20s or early 30s and has athleticism. |

KCP isn't worth Ingles and a pick and Derozan isn't signing for the MLE and especially not the MMLE _________________ Plan A - Schroder/Hield/Lebron/AD/Gasol
Plan B- Schroder/Powell/Lebron/AD/Gasol |

We can’t work out deals with other teams because the players we are offering have such low value. Hence, we give away draft picks to make up for that deficit, and the cycle keeps repeating itself infinitely. |
