Except Nets will ask for too much for their players, which most winning teams simply can't afford. We won't. We will take second rounders for Clarkson or a late/protected first for Sexton/Collins.

Getting any type of first for Sexton/Collins is pure fantasy.

So is getting anything for Clarkson.

Exactly. Nets/Bulls/Blazers all overvalued their players in trade talks. We don't value any of our players except for Lauri/Walker and maybe Key. That's why we would be the one to get the deal done over those teams.

Not a subscriber… but the Jazz have made Clarkson Collins and sexton available in trade for the right price… that’s what it will say.

Good rule of thumb: whatever Perkins recommends.... do the opposite.

I mean he's right about Kessler, but you'd literally have to be blind not to see that the Lakers need someone like that. No great insight.

As for Sexton... LOL. Collin would make LeBron retire in about 5 minutes. No GM is stupid enough to trade for him (see what I did there?)

You are missing the point. Perkins is probably one of the least competent talking heads out there, but if he throws those names out and those names are conversed, it matters.

Its simply because the whole talking head media serves Lakers fans more than any other fanbase, and once "names are out there", Pelinka can more easily pull the trigger without getting blasted. You may think getting Sexton is a huge mistake by Pelinka, but acting like Pelinka couldn't make such mistake is naive.
