Great discussion of potential trade for Anthony Davis.... We lose Kuzma, Ball, & Hart for Anthony Davis. We keep Ingram & Randal but our bench is totally annihilated with this and the trades to Cleveland that has been made

Our youth movement would be gone. We've sent out DLO, JC & Nance. Add Lonzo, Kuzma & Hart? That would be 6 young players with talent.
I've seen what those 4 new players have done for the Cav's, I think we need to wait on the FA's... _________________ Lakers need to build a freaking team !

Posted this more at length in the thread about asking which 2 players we'd want to team up, but I wonder what people would think if we could team up all 3 of LeBron/AD/PG, while losing Ball and Ingram (and Deng's salary) but keeping Randle and Kuzma and Hart. It would be possible to do that if PG didn't opt out and got traded here. Oh, and that pesky part about the Pelicans trading Davis for Deng, Ball, and Ingram. And possibly a pick or two.

Deal got delt wit. JK
Like a few people already mentioned, AD is younger than Nance and Clarkson.
It's like when someone posted a thread the day of the DLO trade saying, "today we threw our youth movement out the window" But in reality, all we did was managed to become the youngest team in the NBA. We have rookies left and right, but if it's not DLO then it doesn't count I guess.

That's not my point guys. What I'm saying is that AD would be here with Randle & Ingram? We wouldn't have trade away all the rest of our resources ? Then what ? a bunch of scrubs to fill the holes?
Another way to go could be really fighting for our Star FA. I know, no one is actually offering AD, I'm just saying we may be one star away from actually competing whil developing our youth. _________________ Lakers need to build a freaking team !
The Open Floor, from SI, podcast has a great take on this in their latest episode.
Basically said "Everyone says Boston is the prime spot for Davis, but the Lakers can actually provide a better package. If PG and Lebron are here, what better way to complete the Big 3 than with AD". And the hosts aren't pro-or-anti Lakers or Celtics, just telling it like it is.
