Last year I wanted Cam Thomas to be a Laker. I was hoping we could trade for him. He’s going to be a star, with Kyrie traded.

I bet the Lakers could get multiple firsts+ from the Nets if they took on Ben Simmons' contract.

Simmons + Harris + multiple firsts for Westbrook.

Simmons 6'10
Harris 6'6
Rui 6'8
Bron 6'8
AD 6'11

Bron is Ben's "big brother", and he idolized Magic, & wanted to be drafted by the Lakers.

Bring him to LA and Bron will fix him.

DO IT MITCH!!!

If we got 70% of the old Ben Simmons that would be a long lineup that could be formidable with guards coming off the bench.

Plus if you think Lakers fans hate Westbrook, I hate to see what they’d do to Simmons 😂

News alert, Joe Tsai and the Nets are NOT going to negotiate with the Lakers in good faith.
Pass on Simmons.

No one wants that crap!!!

Ben Simmons. Puke.

Two deals that’ll make LeBron happy and the Lakers a better team:

1) Utah Jazz (they lost tonight to a Luka and Markieff-less Dallas team)

Westbrook, JTA, 2027 1st (Top 5 Protected), 2029 1st (unprotected) for Conley, Beasley, Vanderbilt, Gay

2) San Antonio/Cleveland

To Lakers: Kevin Love
To Spurs: Pat Bev, Neto, Lamar Stephens, x2 2nds from Cleveland, x1 second rounder from LAL
To Cavs: Richardson, Walker, Damian Jones, Gabriel

Lakers Roster:

PG: Conley/Schroder/
SG: Beasley/Reaves/Christie
SF: Rui/Brown Jr/
PF: LeBron/Love/Gay
C: Davis/Vanderbilt/Bryant

That’s a team with a lot of size, and a lot of three point shooting. A playoff rotation of Conley/Beasley/Rui/LeBron/AD with Schroder, Reaves, Love, Vanderbilt off the bench is quite scary.

Also a couple open roster spots for buy-out guys.

Star is TBD but anytime the kid has gotten playing time he’s shown that he can score. It’s more than a 2 game sample.

It doesn't look like the Nets are concerned about opening up cap space. They are looking for players who can help them win now.

You have to imagine that, if that's the ask now, Rob is waiting till the last moment to see who he can leverage to give us a proper deal. You just know there are multiple teams who want our picks, but who think they can wring some kind of Laker tax out of us right now. That changes if Rob flips is on them and says there's multiple teams interested in our picks.

Simmons is a gigantic negative. He's like Kyrie without the scoring talent.


Reportedly, the Raptors want Claxton. I could the Nets bundling Claxton, Simmons and picks for Siakam.

The Lakers, Sixers, and Pistons are in trade talks.

Pistons receive: Russell Westbrook, picks
Lakers receive: Tobias Harris, Furkan Korkmaz
Sixers receive: Nerlens Noel, Marvin Bagley, Bojan Bogdanović.

LA does not want to trade their 1st round picks. #NBA


Kidding right? Dude has 2000 followers.
Not legit.
Terrible god awful trade.
Trade Westbrook plus picks for Harris and Korkmaz? Lol
Horse crap rumor….


I assume 76ers the ones giving up picks since they are getting Bagley/Bogdan.

I'll take this trade and run if we don't have to include any of our picks.

Also only if we exhausted all the possible Russ trades out there.

I believe they can only offer 2 FRP. One from this year, and one in 2029. I don't think they can deal the 2027 pick because it's conditional, but maybe I'm looking at the wrong info. I posted a couple hours ago about this, but I have a hard time seeing something like Claxton and even Cam Thomas, plus the 2 FRP and Simmons, getting it done for Siakam. If there are teams willing to pay 3 FRP for OG, then the value for Siakam has to be quite a bit higher.

If this is the guy who called the Kyrie to Mavs trade then we need to give him the benefit of the doubt, everyone 100% assumed Kyrie was either going to the Clippers or Lakers
