Geez, getting worse has its own benefits I guess. But all that for one first? Maybe I should just be ready to be underwhelmed.
I'd take it over nothing, but it'd be hard thinking we're giving up all our tradable guys, plus the illustrious NAW, for only one pick. Beggars can't be choosers, but I'd hoped to have gotten a few more assets out of the rest of those guys. An unprotected LA pick is great, but with only one of them, what if they end up having a good year? You may be able to milk more value out of that using it as currency in another move. Risky, though.
Lol you guys are either seriously overrating our players or seriously underrating the Lakers pick we’d get back.

Remember when we traded Bogey for KO... man people see what we got for our all stars and think every mfer on the roster worth a stack of picks.

I’d do it for one unprotected Lakers pick (27 or 29) and a pick swap this year.
Our guys have value, but it’s not crazy good value. I want to be greedy as much as the next person, but I think there’s some limitation as to what types of assets we’ll be getting back from guys like Beasley, Conley, Vando, Clarkson and Olynyk. I think the real value is by consolidating them so a team can justify paying out a premium draft pick to get them all.

So 1 pick for an overpaid starter and two bench players... cuz that's what Malik and Vando are... sounds fair to me.

Danny was quoted back saying he values these guys as 1 first each. 1 for all 3 isn't going to happen.

This feels like déjà vu all over again with the Mitchell to New York talks. Reported advanced stages almost done but then nothing happens. Lol

Royce got us a first. Beasley and Vanderbilt are in that tier. And yes, I do have trouble assigning proper value to a pick that is 5 years out. But the Lakers are historically a destination for top players, so I’m not just gonna pencil it in as a top five pick.

1 starter and 2 guys who would easily be starter/ 6th man on most nba teams. It's been reported how every nba team has called about Vanderbilt. Conley is still a top tier pg. Beasley has the 4th most 3s in the nba. These guys aren't just random end of the bench guys.

Outside of LeBron who have they signed in the last 20 years? Hell, they’ve been in the lottery twice WITH LeBron already.
My best guess is we get 2 picks with the compensation to Minny coming from us.

I’m just saying, it’s a long way out. And in general a later pick is valued less than a pick coming sooner.
We’ll see what happens but that trade just seemed to be helping other teams, taking back bad contracts/players to facilitate the trade. Then getting a bone thrown our way. Not some Danny Ainge killer move. As I said, I’ll prepare to be more underwhelmed than I was thinking. But do hope I am a bit more whelmed than I felt seeing that trade.
