Lakers-Jazz Trade

I never would have guessed...:rolleyes:

I understand that, but I just don't like the deal. Bogie is a positive asset, Robinson is a huge negative. A FRP doesn't do enough to balance it. Taking on Westbrook is fine. He's in the last year of his contract so won't obstruct a rebuild. Robinson is owed $75 million over the next 4 years. Short term bad salary is fine. Long term bad salary without siginificantly better compensation isn't.

It’s essentially two firsts with Jovic, who I think has huge upside. And we’re out a win now player we don’t want and cap space of questionable practical value besides taking on bad contracts for future assets. Which this is.
 
I’m still down for a three-team deal with Phoenix/Miami.

Bogey to Phoenix

Robinson/Shamet to Utah

Crowder/Gay to Miami

2 unprotected 2023 1sts headed our way as well.
 
When Lauri gets eligible to be traded again, do this:

Lakers:
Mike Conley
Bojan Bogdanovic
Grayson Allen
Lauri Markannen

Bucks:
Jordan Clarkson
Weynen Gabriel

Jazz:
Russ Westbrook
Kendrick Nunn
Marjon Beauchamp
2027 Lakers pick
2029 Lakers pick

Lakers get a ton of shooting. Lauri can play some 4/5 if AD is injured. Grayson is great of the bench. And Bojan can help light them up. Conley is in the 95% percentile for catch and shoot shooting - perfect for Lebron. Bojan/Grayson/Lauri can be considered wings which the Lakers want. Lauri and Grayson are tradable at the end of the year if they want clear salary later on to get Kyrie.

The Jazz give up Bojan, Mike, Jordan, and Lauri for the two Lakers picks, Beauchamp, Nunn and Russ. :)

The Bucks get Jordan (an athlete) to pair up with Ingles (dad bod) to come off the bench and a young scrub.

I'm buying too much into the Euro Basket... but i do think Lauri has a breakout year for us if he stays healthy. I'm keeping him unless someone bowls us over for him.

He’s eligible to be traded I believe. Just has to be solo.

I think Sexton/Lauri are actually going to be solid players for us for sure. I think the players in totality coming back from the Cavs trade tipped the scales in their favor.

I think that’s a mistake. I really think ****ing around about the tank and getting mis-timed building blocks isn’t the best way to approach this. And that’s saying nothing of the good odds the Jazz return on those draft picks is poor.

The best thing the team can do now since they have a sub-optimal start is to redouble their efforts on sucking and getting more dice to roll for a blue chipper.

We need this deal to happen. So do the Lakers.

The Lakers deal is totally separate than Sexton/Lauri. We can have those two as solid building blocks this year and still get a nice pick. I think we will not be rebuilding as long as people think. We could be in playoff contention as soon as 2024-25 depending on how well our draft picks pan out.
 
Locke talked about this today. He kinda broke things down okay... hearing him talk cap holds and stuff is hilarious.

I still think its one pick and maybe we work Conley into the deal if that is the case... or two picks and its Vando and maybe we circle back and send some additional seconds or things back to him.

I don't think Lakers should be all in on just expiring deals and that Vando and Beasley should have a lot of value to them both on court or as future trade fodder if they want to work a sign and trade with Brooklyn for Kyrie.
