So the Lakers are looking to start their defense by making a fairly big trade by the looks of it.

Rumours are that they are going to ship Kyle Kuzma, Danny Green and JaVale McGee to the Spurs for LaMarcus Aldridge.

Who wins that trade, if it happens?
Spurs

Lakers lose solid depth and get a 35-year-old in return.

Not sure why they'd look for that sort of shakeup when they've just won the championship anyway?! They've got a system that works...

The only shot we have is relying on sentiment.

Masai Ujiri helped his family out of Nigeria. So him and Masai are good already. Supposedly anyway.

Mavs are gonna clear out our high wage deadwood and prepare to meet Giannis' wage requests. The allure of FREAK MAGIC is too much for him to resist

Mavs would presumably need to ship KP for that to happen?

Not really, we have:

  • Hardaway on 20m this season, 19 next, expiring after next.
  • Courtney Lee on 12.7m expiring now
  • Dwight Powell on 10m, expiring 22/23
  • Delon Wright on 9.5m, expiring 2021/22

If we could get rid of those guys in trades/free agency it would theoretically be possible.

Realistically we won't ever get Giannis lmao, it's just my dream scenario. Would like to get rid of Hardaway and Lee ASAP and get better players to play around Luka though.

Shit, that's some mediocre over-payment right there.

Who would you see as a realistic get to throw into the 5 with Luka and KP?

Anyone mind if I merge this with the other NBA Thread and rename the og thread for consistency and cleanliness?

I don't really care either way. One long NBA thread is fine with me but most sites seem to make a new one for each offseason and season and then make a new one so I've never really questioned it :lol

If there is an OG thread it was more than 3 pages back so I just thought a new one would be fine.

That was a playoff thread though. I couldn't find a general discussion one.

I did see the one that was pinned.
The thread doubles as an "Everything NBA" thread and was for 2019 offseason, regular season, and playoffs too. No worries
