Lakers and Lakers Nation want a Lakers Russell Westbrook Trade and the Indiana Pacer Might be a destination. What about a 3 team Lakers Suns Pacers Deal? What would you think of this Lakers News?
If we are giving up both picks – I like the SA deal better. J-Rich (3 & D/ 40% from 3/ expiring contract), McDermott (larger 3 & D/ 1 additional year on contract for $13 mil) and Poetl (starting center and AD at the 4/ 1 more year on contract for $10 mil).
Idk about this trade bc then we get rid of Russ and get back 3 solid Veteran defensive players that all can stretch the floor, but then who do we waive? Matt Ryan for sure right and then who is the other player? Then Bryant and Jones 1 of those players won't be getting a lot of PT. Very Interesting 🤔, and I do agree this definitely helps our Wing depth that we need. I would not mind this trade at all, Crowder is getting older but brings toughness to the team, he can play the 3 and 4, he can knock down the open 3 ball, and Crowder always plays hard. Craig is a very unrated 3 and D Wing, Craig can come in and play good defense and knock down the 3 ball. Last Turner with AD, it would be a Block Party every night, Turner also stretches the floor, Turner would start at the 5 and then we have 2 solid back up 5 with Jones and Bryant, Turner can push Bryant and Jones to play better as well, last like you said AD can play the PF at all times. Starting 5 Bev Nunnn James AD and Turner, with Schroder Reaves Craig Crowder and Bryant, that's a 1st unit and a 2nd unit, and still have Walker, JTA, Jones, Brown Jr., and Christie, 13 man rotation depending on injuries. so yah guess the Lakers waive Matt Ryan bc he is on a non-guarantee contract and Gabriel I would assume try and add him in that trade but they would have to give up 2 players and they would be the 2. If that trade does go down, we are a legit contender 100 percent!!!
This trade is dumb and definitely came from the Suns side cause they’re using us and our assets to fix their problems smh. It makes no sense to trade for Crowder (who’s a locker room cancer that’s already clashed with Lebron before) when Moe Harkless is sitting on the market ready to be signed for a vet min. Why give them Hield for Crowder when we can have Hield, Turner and Harkless to help our shooting and defense. Crowder is not that much better than Harkless for it to be worth losing Hield 🤷🏾♂️
Just wait for the pistons to be bad , then try to trade russ +frp for Bojan , Alec burks. And Noel + frp for Myles turner In a three team trade Perfect balance of defense and 3 pt shooting , also gives us 2 wings
Huge gamble on this. Suns get a lot better here. Pacers also benefit greatly from this. The lakers are assuming most of the risk here. Million dollar question is, are our only first rounders worth it for 3 role players? No guarantee a superstar just decides to walk here next season. If this fails, be prepared to sit through the long haul
A lineup of: PG: Bron SG: Craig SF: Crowder PF: AD C: Turner really gives me 2020 vibes and I love it! Got the KCP/DG type lengthy 3&D wings with a C that can block shots very well AND can even shoot. The main difference is Turner probably wouldn’t be as good a rebounder as JaVale and Dwight were for LAL in 2020 but it’s still a great lineup! Would be a great move if Rob could somehow pull it off tbh 💯🔥
So tired of hearing all these “Indiana pacers involved” deals where the pacers end up getting the short end of the deal 🙄 you morons obviously haven’t seen how they trade. They would never do this deal
As a Pacer fan every guy equals one first round pick. If you want us to take Westbrook that's a first round pick. If you want miles that's a first round pick. If you want buddy that's a first round pick. We're not giving away a all rookie player from last year for nothing. Take Chris D. Off the trade talk.

They just don't like each other. They played together in Cleveland and he wound up getting traded and LeBron was Ok with that.
I like it we get our wings that can shoot
I like this trade💜💛

This would be great
No way the Pacers are gifting Duarte to the Suns like that

I like this trade
Stop with all the cap bro and clickbait ! Keep the channels respectable bro
Suns fan here….this is laughable.
A BUNCH of teams want him….my team is SUPER stingy.
Make sense🧐
Torrey Craig can’t shoot I wouldn’t take him in the deal

Trade russ and fired rod to get champ.
This deal is better than a straight up Pacers deal
We aren't giving up Duarte in a Lakers deal to help the Lakers. Just stop a Sun's 1sts doesn't even come close to Duarte.
Just wait for the pistons to be bad , then try to trade russ +frp for Bojan , Alec burks.
And Noel + frp for Myles turner
In a three team trade
Perfect balance of defense and 3 pt shooting , also gives us 2 wings

There’s a G on the end of “Young” player.

Rob should be fired because ain’t tryna give them Russ and picks for Buddy Hield Myles Turner
Crowder Buddy Hield Myles Turner Draymond Green KCP Caruso 🆑🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾💜💛💜💛💜💛💜💛💜💛
Lol y’all funny pacers will never do that deal
Love this trade only problem is I really don’t see the Suns actually helping us out even if it’s beneficial for them.
I love Russ but he gotta play better and quit blaming everything and everybody
I know teams r tanking 4 Victor hopefully we find a good deal if we don't do the pacers one but we know what we should do
wow is this for real or just a rumor? Def the best trade scenario! What are the lakers waiting for?
Why do you keep saying yun and not young?
Crowder can duck a sick. He bad mouthed LeBron after playing with him in Cleveland. LeBron would not want him on the team
No way Indy does that
