Ca's Laker team is one of the few on here that actually make sense. Lakers won't wont get Gasol, LMA, Love, Jordan, Butler or Leonard. Their best bet is getting a decent scorer alongside Kobe in Harris and hope to develop one of Okafor and Towns along with Clarkeson and Randle in the coming years.

now that the lakers have the second pick the cousins trade becomes more tempting for sure. Kings could solidify their big men spot for years to come. But hill now would be a poor trade piece since the Kings would be getting two young big already. I think you have to remove hill and find more value somewhere else. Idk where though.

Your math is broken.

Even if Lakers decline team options of Sacre and Hill, and dump Young and Kelly's salaries, they will have 28.99M cap space for two players. These are the cap holds:
Bryant - 25M
Randle - 3.13M
2nd pick - 4.25M
27th pick - 0.96M
Clarkson - 0.85M
Black - 0.85M
Davis - 0.95M
Open roster spots - 4*0.53= 2.12M
