Trade deadline discussion

Is it possible the Lakers have actually found someone to take Westbrook?


I don't see how. I am not sure I have ever seen anything like the wrecking ball that is Russell Westbrook to his own teams. The only trade that makes any sense is for Wall, but the Rockets are demanding a 1st and LA really can't send any for that purpose.

Now if they can get Eric Gordon thrown in after sending the 1st... then it gets interesting. That's what they should be shooting for; throwing in whatever 2nds they can and whatever reasonable matching salary for Wall and Gordon.

But it really might just be impossible to trade Russ. In previous years he at least put up fake stats but this **** is bananas.
 
Are there limits to the amount of pick swaps you can exchange? Like if Portland got the rights to swap picks with LA for 20 years in exchange for Westbrook/Lillard?

Cant go out beyond 2028
 
The thing with Quin is that he really values players who play confident. I think that's why he likes Clarkson so much and why he has gravitated towards Forrest.

Maybe NAW is that dude
 
Hernangomez likely gets dealt somewhere tomorrow and I still think Gay might get moved too. Hard to see anything else happening.
