Rise up!
do y'all think we're closer to blowing it up or closer to making the right move to contend?

Westbrook and both picks for Trey? add nun and Bev to get hunter? / Griffin / holiday?
Trae ain’t going to no damn Lakers for Westbrick and shytty picks and Hawks damn sure ain’t throwing in Griffin or Hunter. We’ll trade Trae for Bron and that’s it :umad:

Seriously...... Where would we be right now if we had Turner and Hield?

For all the people out there saying that they wouldn't want to trade one or both of the 1st.... What do we think out record would be with them right now?

Better. It wouldn’t matter at the end of the day because AD’s health is the only that matters

Teams might start calling for Pat Bev with the tear he's on

"Westbrook is the best and most consistent player the Lakers have"

:dead:

That's what Jeanie said....why? Because he actually plays the majority of the season. Building around injury prone Lebron and Street Clothes get's you exactly where you are now. Trading one of them, ESPECIALLY AD before his inevitable break down gets you shooting and benefits Russ and Bron when he actually plays.

When I say he's the "best player" I mean he would be the best team componet to focus on in the now as there is very little risk. If he shyts the bed, he's gone. If he thrives (with the same type of players Lebron needs), he has incentive to re-sign and for much cheaper as you retool.



I'd rather keep that on an expiring contract than a Fragile AD or an aging Lebron, if I'm in the situation the Lakers have been in since last season.

Unless they're able to get back a top young talent/draft picks for AD/Lebron.

Hypothetically...If ATL chooses to move Trae Young and you can get him for Lebron or AD, you have to make the deal.
You want to build around Trae?:francis::ufdup:
He's diva, doesn't play defense and has a MUCH better roster and his team is barely .500.:gucci:

No.....Having a young talent like Trae gives the Lakers a young asset that they can potentially move in the future...It's not about building around Trae. It's about stacking assets for future transactions....Let's say Doncic, Zion etc...demands a trade...The Lakers would have a Young asset to be the centerpiece of the deal.

It doesn't have to be Doncic or Zion...There's been a number of players traded over the last 2 years who could've helped the Lakers (Haliburton, Mitchell, Sabonis etc...).....If LA had a young player like Trae, maybe they could've scooped up one of those players.

AD might still be around, spacing would be better. Record would be better.
