I've been hoping the Lakers would be trying to get their 12th pick.

All the Pistons want is a vet in return so a guy like Clarkson is the perfect canidate for them.


I'd give them Clarkson and Zu, I think they also want drummond insurance

Clarkson and #28 for Jackson and #12.

Then trade Mozgov and Jackson to Brooklyn for cap space.

Draft Collins #12.

I know people are going to kill me for this, but persoanlly I would trade the 2 for 5+10 if we could get Fox at 5 and trade 10 and 28 with Clarkson and filler (Black or Brewer) for George.

I'm not his number one fan but you have to add DLo on that protected list.

We need firepower.

Im not going to lie, the Cavs can afford the gamble of George and if they get the right third (aka, Portland) to be the third team then they actually can make a compelling offer to Indiana.

We don't have to trade the farm, but we need to secure our guy. The benefits outweigh the negatives. Keep Ingram and #2, but everything else is open for negotiation. We absolutely need to get this done.


Completely agree. Everything but Ingram and the #2 needs to be open to discussion.

Ideally you get him for some combo of Clarkson/Randle/28th pick.

I think it is doable.

And DLO. Shared agents with PG13 (same with Jules). I think PG13 would want a kid who is capable of going for 20ppg next season next to him.

Well most of our assets are all limits expect for Clarkson.

Nope.

First, Blazers won't offer all their picks for a soon to be 30 year old Love unless they can find another a 3rd star. Not even their fan base like that idea, it was just someone who went to ESPN trade machine and posted it everywhere.

Also Lakers have the hot iron, not the Pacers. You rush this now, and let Indiana control the pace, you lose like New York did with Carmelo.

Are you talking about Reggie Jackson? Wouldn't it make more sense to use him in the Paul George trade especially since they will need a PG when Teague is likely to bolt in FA?

It's too bad George doesn't have a no trade clause. This would be a bit easier.

Nice to see other posters here not in panic mode.

Fans on twitter are worst.

Yes. We could trade for George but I'd rather free up cap space to sign him next summer and pick up a good young C prospect.

Casual fans are the worst period. Which there a hive of them on twitter.

Hell no with Zu.

It's a 50% chance he's a slow footed Center with minimal range. I can part with that and not mind so much

Hard to really gauge until we hear real trade talks from both sides.

So far it's just a bunch of spam floating around without any actual movement.

The trick is to make them think they control the pace when in fact there is no pace.

Off course they control the pace, why do you think they're called the Pacers. SMH

Yes, I agree especially since we don't need to give him away to do this deal.

Clarkson/Randle/28 is a lot for a guy who has told you he is going to the Lakers.

Seems fair, maybe even "overpaying" if you are the Lakers but I like the idea of unloading those 2 players and bringing in George now.

I ain't parting with that. They can have Mozgov for all I care. Plus it makes more sense due to pistons wanting VETS and not a 20 year old.
