Am I completely crazy with that? I don't even care about any picks, those three are fine with me...picks are a bonus. Give em one of the Hobbits to replace Maynor if they need it. But they have Jackson.

Favors is probably better than Ibaka (Just my hunch, but he is a better on-ball defender, me eyes tell me). Haywood fills two needs - he's a shooting wing and he's...you know the other one.

But Ibaka is better than Favors. Have you seen the better stats he's putting up this year because Scotty Brooks finally got a brain and is actually playing him more. But still, I love me some Favors. Plus his stats will go way up when he gets more minutes as well.

Fine. I'll still do both...

Yeah, I'll take NEITHER. Get outta here with that. Yall are on that indica.

Trade K-Lav while we still can.

The clock is ticking...

That are lousy trade proposals. Common: KLOVE was just voted the 7th best player in the world & all you want for him is Ibaka or Favours? COmmon!!

Get something more intersting, like

KLOVE, JJ Barea & DWIll for Josh Smith & Al Horford...

Or: KLOVE for DWade

Or: KLOVE & DWILL for DH12


(Or: KLOVE & JJ for : LA & Babbitt)
(Or: KLOVE & JJ for: Monroe, Drummond, Magette)

But common: We doesn't want to trade a guy, that get 24 rebounds, doesn't we?!? Better should we build around him: we need a team that carry his defensive lack, so he can rebound for good (and then we should be perfect)....
I still believe that a duo DH12, KLOVE would be second to none....

Maybe you're right & surely LAL wouldn't make this deal, unless NYK get's involved:

Gasoft to us, JJ/Luke/Dwill/Lee to NYK, Amare to LAL... This could be intersting for LA, cause Nash + Amare actually works quite well, we all know... And NYK coul be interested as well: get rid of the Amare-Problem, get some Potential in DWill & some veteran scoring in Luke & JJ (as well as defending in Malcolm).

For us it would be quite hard, though

Rubio/ Shved

Budinger/ Roy

Ak47/ Ham/ Howard

KLOVE/ Amundson

Pek/ Pau/ Steemer

Maybe sign Baron Davis? Michael Redd?


But he's really too expensive for us really

DFS, you never trade a dollar bill for 5 quarters in the NBA. Love for pieces and parts would be a disaster.

Williams plus Ridnour plus Josh Howard for somebody's legit shooting guard... Paul George, Eric Gordon, someone from that region. DeMar Derozan, hell maybe even Tyreke.

That's what everyone said last year about CW's K-Lav for Harden/Ibaka trade too

Rubio
Harden
AK47
Ibaka
Pek

Health willing, that's a championship level starting lineup

But in all seriousness, there's no way they're going to trade Love. It may be blasphemy, but maybe they should trade Pek. Him and Love are such an odd pairing and he's due for a massive raise next season. If we had the chance to get a young up and coming defensive center or a quality shooting guard, I'd have to do it even though Pek is one of the most awesome people in the NBA. Pek + D-Will would hypothetically bring back a really good player in a trade.

Agree about Pek. I just like Pek better as a person...But this duo is gross to me still. I doubt they can get that defensive big for Pek, however. Maybe Williams can get him? Whoever he is...

Anyway, while I'd clearly think about it differently and more seriously if those two Favors/Ibaka trades were on the table, you all are still underestimating people. I do agree and actually would assume they could get a little more for Love, however.

Something around Derrick WIlliams for Drummond? Would they even consider it?

Best Trade Ever

-Kris Humphries & Derrick Williams to the Lakers.
-Pau Gasoft to the Nets
-Marshon Brooks & Jordan Hill to the Wolves

Lakers get rid of the Gasoft headache and get a couple of guys who look like good fits on that team, one of whom is young with (perceived) upside.

Nets get a clear talent upgrade at their weakest starting position. Brooks is no loss to them because he's been pushed out of the rotation by the veterans anyways.

Kahn admits that D-Will was a failure and makes a move that helps the team right now. We could desperately use Brooks' scoring ability and he's a huge upgrade over Malcolm "sucks at basketball but the fans inexplicably like him" Lee.

Who says no?

Wow. Thumbs up. You forgot to give the Lakers a superstar name in return, though. Throw in Kevin Love to them for free and they'll call it fair.

I also fixed your last sentence.

That would have been EPIC for us. Too bad everyone laughed at me.

If OKC still had Harden under contract, they wouldn't even do the deal anyways.

I don't see Detroit trading Drummond. Like Favors, once he starts getting big(ger) minutes he's gonna be really good. Especially with him playing next to Monroe.
