If the framework is something like D-Lo (contract), Reaves, Vincent (contract) and draft compensation for Murray and Bogi, I think Iâm in.

If we get capela as well this is the best trade we can make

Reaves or Dlo for Murray. Rui and whatever for DFS
Potential-Host-6281
DLo, Reaves, and Ham for Murray and Quin Snyder.

Meaning it wonât happen. Trades that actually happen always come out of the blue.
Hope Rob will surprise us with a trade along the line of âThe Lakers are close to a deal to acquire Donovan Mitchell and Jarrett Allenâ. lol

AR is off limits. Trading him is another KCP/Caruso situation. Heâs an excellent role player.
They need to target a legit center and tell Lebron to play the three.
PairedFoot08
All the reports about Murray make me feel its more likely LaVine or someone we didnât expect ends up being the move
Feel like normally these leaks often occur when teams have more or less given up on talks
suhar97
Not sure how to feel – this is way too loud at this point w/ all this smoke. Iâm still not sold on DJM being the fix, unless this gets expanded
aagator
We really need a backup center

If weâre trading Reaves surely we can get someone better in then Murray?
Nijee302
I wish we can get Capela as well
Gristle__McThornbody
Not a fan. But he’ll definitely be an upgrade over Reaves.
Sure_Skill_1991
I swear to god as soon as we trade Austin he gon be a legit allstar….. like any mid players that the lakers trade or get rid of they somehow get 2x better

Wayyyy too many leaks. This is klutch applying pressure

I am in favor internal development over trading away the team. So Iâm against Iâm trading Austin Reaves. But Iâm willing to accept their mistakes and not be in a position to fully win now. If you are in a win now position, getting a guard like Murray who can defend for a guard who sucks at it (Austin Reaves) makes sense to me.
McLovin_AI
Heâs not going to fix this teamÂ
kronos9797
Why would we trade Reaves, heâs literally got one of the best contracts and his value against is insane. Name one other player making 12 mil per year whoâs shouldering as much burden as Reaves right now, there is no way we should be trading him. Exactly the same way we should not have left Caruso walk, these are guys who play well with LeBron and have valuable playoff experience. These are the guys whoâd be on the floor in the final minutes of a playoff game!
syretheboss
How the fuck are all of you people already giving up on AR? All that hype and all that talk in the playoffs up to the WCF and you want him gone halfway through the season. Wtf
Beautiful_Mammoth_19
How about the lakers speak to darvin ham about a firing
I think itâs a bluff to Chicago for not moving the wheel on Lavine
JayRod24_
As long as Reaves isnât in the deal Iâm fine with it. Also if Iâm being honest I really donât care to have Murray on this team. To me he doesnât move the needle that much, I would much rather have Lavine.
Zeetheking1
This means the hawks are telling people we want Murray to try and get pressure in the FO to give up reaves and our first.
Expensive_Mess3501
Man everyone saying reaves + dlo for murray is an idiot. This guy has been shit defensively recently. He aint gonna fix our problems. If this happens weâre a terrible org. the main problem is hams defensive scheme. We have to STOP letting the lowest 3pt percentage shooter open

1. Trade all your assets for player that doesnât fit. 2. Say youâre committed to him for the indefinite future. 3. Team fails to integrate player. Team underperforms to expectations. 4. Fans blame player instead of team leaders. 5. Outgoing players perform better than they did on the Lakers. 6. Trade him for less than what you paid for. 7. Rinse and repeat.
Rjbaca
Is he going to cover everyone on D?
pinktwhite
I pray Rob is working a three-team trade to keep AR
BusiestWolf
If they lose Reaves they should try to get Lonnie back in a separate trade
Ranjith_Unchained
Very lateral move, he’s not a good shooter and his defense has fallen off
Uni-Bron
This is posturing for the Lakers to get a better deal on Lavine. Murrayâs fit would be horrendous, Russ 2.0

DO NOT LET GO OF AUSTIN I SWEAR TO GOD!

I donât want Murray. Heâs not the pure scorer we need. I understand POA guard is a nice to have but we are dying for offense right now! We need Lavine.

Klutch creating a market for a player that doesnât move the needle for contenders. Classic.

Dejounte can help solve one of our biggest problems which is the physical limitations of DâLo and Reaves. Neither of them are quick enough to stay with fast guards or strong enough to stay with physical wings. Our defense doesnât produce on-ball pressure unless we put in Vando which comes at a huge offensive cost. It’s really not an effort of scheme thing. Having both DLo and Reaves in the game at the same time makes our defense way too porous.
Even though Dejounteâs effort on defense has been dwindling he has more physical skills to play defense than our current crop of guards. This really leads to players not going full steam into AD and hopefully makes him an even more impactful defensive player.
Also, Reaves and DLoâs skills on offense are a bit duplicative as they are both shooters who like to operate in the PNR so hopefully Dejounte adds a different element to the offense with slashing and fast break capabilities.
ToneDowneyAve
What if randomly pulled off Siakem? Lmfao super stretch im sure but does he move you guys.
hourles
lol canât believe we actually trying to trade for another big name player. We ainât gonna have any 1st round draft picks till 2050 at this point
KittleDTM
If we trade reaves rui and dlo for some mid âstarâ like Dejounte, just pack it up.
Especially if we trade reaves, it will be like selling our soul and making the same mistake we made with KCP/Caruso/Danny green

Got [downvoted yesterday](https://www.reddit.com/r/lakers/comments/1943o4o/daily_lakers_discussion_thread/khg89en/) for saying we should trade DLo for him and now today we’re throwing in AR. What losing does to mfers
