Lakers Offseason

SIGN
SG Gordon Heyward to MAX Contract

G Jordie Meeks 3 years $21 million

TRADES

LAL- Paul George
IND- Jordan Clarkson, Julius Randle & 2017 2nd overall pick.

George has expressed interest in playing for LA. The Pacers know he will probably leave for nothing after 17 if they are not competitive. Why not get two young solid role players and a top pick.


LAL- Hashan Whiteside
MIA- D'Angalo Russell, Timofey Mosgov, & 2019 1st (unprotected)

The Heat have the ability to start their rebuild around Russell and Winslow. They also can use Mosgov to fill the C void.


LAL- Elfrid Peyton
ORL- Nick Young


The Magic need shooters, and the Lakers need a distributing PG.



PG- Elfrid Peyton/Marcelo Huertas
SG- Gordon Heyward/Jordie Meeks
SF- Brandon Ingram/Corey Brewer
PF- Paul George/Larry Nance
C- Hashan Whiteside/Tarik Black


The new front office will want to make a big splash and start the winning process. They're not going to wait for Russell and top picks to develop. They will try to use their assets and bring in some big names.

Heyward isn't going to Lakers. He's looking for a good team!

If we trade PG13, we want Ingram and the pick (or russel if it falls out the top three.
And i think Bird rather trades him to Boston for the protected Clippers pick, than trade him to LA.

No one wants nick young if Hezonja can't make the rotation how will Young no thanks. Anyways reports are lakers want a 2nd for young which means they know his value and going to sell low.
