Hey All,
Guessing my last stab at Lakers in a multi-trade this season:
Latest @BleacherReport A 4-Team Trade Idea to Finally Land Dejounte Murray with LA Lakers - with less than 2 weeks to go before the trade deadline, my best stab at what a Dejounte/LAL deal might look like https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10106863-a-4-team-trade-idea-to-finally-land-dejounte-murray-with-la-lakers

Lots of moving parts to obtain non-playoff-tested players to quickly adapt to LBJ/AD on a team whose only goal is winning ring - this year
Appreciate your effort to obtain Murray + Jones that doesn’t “Move the Needle” while losing continuity, draft choices, playoff-tested players, cash and youth
Adding Kyle Lowry would be a much better option that brings strategic outside shooting, winning character (along reuniting with Vincent to bring some “hard hat” mentality symbolic of Heat Culture - if there is a buy-out)
Another possible buyout option (Gordon Haywood) would be a better pickup because of his outside shooting, size and playmaking skills - even at this stage of his career
LBJ likes veterans who are battle-tested |

Just when Dlo's game is coming around he's in trade rumors! That has to hurt his game. ^^ Lowery's age and salary IMO are deterrents. _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

Pass. Cost is too steep. Doesn't help make the team better. _________________ "He may say it's not you, it's him.... but it's really you." |

This trade does not get under the tax.
For the team to compete, they need to spend, not save money. |

I think Lowry ends up with PHI but that's me. TBD
Lakers don't get under the tax, as noted, it's staying under the apron that's required _________________ Salary Cap Strategist and Columnist at Bleacher Report and on Twitter at http://www.twitter.com/EricPincus |

Where is the "new head coach" article? How each would use current personnel. |
