"multiple league sources expect the agent and star to soon deliver word throughout the league that Davis’ preferred destination is the Lakers and he’ll become a rental player until 2020 with a trade anywhere else."

I'm not sure how NBA Owners are going to counteract situations like this and situations like Kawhi sitting out a year - but I do expect this trend to eventually lead to the mother of all lock-outs when the current CBA is up.

Here is a man who understands where our upgrade needs to be: at the 4. Not at the 1.

We don't need a position upgrade. We need an offensive upgrade. Doesn't matter if it comes at PG, SG (moving DM to PG and adding a SG), SF or PF. We need offense. More specifically a guy who can CREATE his own offense.

Jae is just fine as our 4 if we upgrade elsewhere. He's a part of several of our most successful lineups this season. Including our most successful lineup period.

http://nateduncannba.com/podcast-episodes/mock-trade-deadline-2019-part-1-ad-conley-gasol/

In this one they traded AD to NYK for Porzingis, their 1st round pick 2019(top 1 protected) + stuff

They also traded Mike Conley to the Jazz for Ricky Rubio, Dante Exum, Grayson Allen and 2019 1st round pick(top 4 protected)

Marc Gasol went to Charlotte for protected 1st + taking on MKG and Biyombo

That's way too much for Conley but I do like the trade for NY.

If I'm Charlotte, I take that deal and run. Way too little for Memphis. Dumping Biyombo and MKG is worth their 1st much less getting Gasol.

Part of the Conley convo has to include the fact that Ricky is good and will get much less this offseason. The upgrade to Conley isn't worth a first, Allen, and giving up on the FA opportunity. Exum doesn't likely have much value, so I don't care that much about his inclusion.

The difference in money is only relevant if you think we have a chance at getting someone better than Conley with the money we are saving. In two years our capspace will evaporate. It's use it or lose it situation when we have to pay Mitchell and Gobert.

I get that for sure. I’d just rather see what FA has and give Ricky a one year overpay and opt in on Favs... is punt two FA periods (I guess) if that is all it meant but I’m not punting two FA periods, a pick, and two prospects.

I think there is a shot that Ricky is better over the next two years than Conley. Health, minutes, age could catch up fast on Mike. I’d almost rather lick Ricky into a cheap 3-4 year deal if we could... I just don’t see it as a huuuuuuge upgrade.
 
We gotta go get Mirotic. NOLA has to shed players to make roster spots for the impending Laker deal. KCP has a no trade clause and he reportedly won't accept a trade to NOLA.

So to get AD, the Lakers will have to send a number of small contracts (Lonzo, Kuzma, Ingram, Zubac and guys like Beasley, Stephenson, Wagner). NBA rules state you have to have a roster spot for every player accepted.

“Over the weekend, I had heard from two separate teams that Mirotic, Randle and Moore had all been made available for picks," Lowe said.

That's a steep price for an overpaid Conley.
