Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

Per the KD demand from over a week ago, I didn’t see any of you buttnutts mention how KD was the dickface who essentially handpicked Nash or at least signed off on him. He loved him in Golden State. But now he doesn’t love him. Dude’s fickle as ****.

Ya exactly LeBron wants all the egos… he wants all his homies like JR and Westbrook and Kyrie on his teams.

Lebron wants the overall best players. That's why he wanted Russ at first. I think Lebron hasn't been hyper concerned about fit because he has always made it work his entire career until Russ.
 
I think Bogey and Mike would put the Lakers back in contention. Personally I would hate to facilitate that, and would need the unprotected picks to feel better about myself.

I'm not sure LA/Lebron see it that way. I think the Lakers are being reluctant to trade away those picks, and it feels like Lebron still thinks he can make it work with Westbrook. It might be another situation that has to resolve itself during the season if/when the Lakers get off to a bad start.
 
When is LeBron Jr coming out? We need to figure out a way to draft him then hold him hostage for everything the Lakers have so he can play with his dad. LeBron would push them to mortgage the entire future of the franchise to play with his son. Every pick for 6 years, any players, whatever. He won't care. He will play that one year, then maybe extend one more then retire, so he won't give a ****. Go all in on Bronny (wow, worst name ever? Maybe. At least George Foreman owned his narcissism) then cash in for all the chips and win a bunch of rings later while Lakers fans cry they lost not just their best players but their birthright championship rings.

The requirement for getting both picks is putting them in contention. As long as they still rely on Street Clothes then they are likely going to fail.
 
Hoop Collective pod with Windy/Bontemps/McMahon brought up the Jazz and Lakers later in their pod. Basically said it would take both picks to get Bogey/Bev/JC/Mike.... said Bogey can get a first by himself.

Later mentioned the Raps and what they are doing. I think they are prime candidate for a Donovan trade if the Knicks don't want to pony up. Mentioned something I have been curios on still havent signed Koloko why would they do that? Waiting on a trade?
 
Miami and Dallas are also a couple good teams but have weird windows to do something. If Miami retains Herro they go into serious tax and generally do not pay the tax. Owner is likely getting crushed in the cruise market as well. If we don't move Don there I think a Bogey for Jovic/2023 pick/Duncan could be something they are very interested in. I cant see Miami bringing back Strus, Herro a year from now... not sure where they are going.

Dallas is another team with some cap issues that I think could be interested in a pick+bad salary for a good player move. Bev for Bertans or Hardaway and a first.

I think there will be another big wave of player movement prior to the start of the season.
 
Just looked at the Lakers Lebron teams vs the Cavs Lebron teams... the Lakers have put some of the worst shooting teams around Lebron... bottom 10ish in attempts/percentages. Cavs teams were polar opposites...

Cavs figured out a very simple formula and Lakers can't seem to figure it out. Put shooters with Lebron and you are a contender. They should be falling over themselves to trade Westbrook and 2 firsts for some combo Bogey/Bev/Mike/Beasley...

Let’s try this again.

Ainge: (to the lakers) I’ve got Bogey Conley and Pat Bev for Westbric… I mean Westbrook and those two itty bitty firsts you got over there.

Lakers: really??!! Done….. this will save our playoff hopes and make LBJ so happy!! Ummmmm we just need to clear this with the true gm and head of basketball operations LeBron James.

Danny: (muttering under his breath) this will go well.

Lakers (To LBJ) HEY KING, yo!! KING JAMES. We got the perfect offer that will be amazing pieces to put around you for one last championship run!!

James: well spit it out already, so we getting Ky??!!

Lakers management: (looking nervous back at each other in despair) Ummmm……. Not quite, but we’re talking about building a team around you and AD built to win a chip!!

LBJ: so, your bring in a different star? Who?

Lakers management: well, no…… it’s…..

LBJ: (LBJ interrupts) No deal I need stars!! (James walks away)

Ring…Ring… Ring…

Ainge: hello?

Lakers: ummmm it’s us…

Ainge: (interrupts) Let me guess, LBJ said no? Click…..

Lakers: guess we’re running it back with Russ, and another year of getting thrown under the bus by LeBron James (in a defeated manner)

You act like LeBron isn’t calling all the shots on this laker team. Nothing is happening without his approval and nothing has happened on that team without his approval. Why else do you think they had a roster full of geriatric LeBron homies last year?
