if they give up on Lonzo in a Trevor Ariza deal ill laugh my balls off. lol

I have seen that quite a few teams have some interest in Ariza so i doubt itll just be some expiring contracts etc. they have to give up.

Is Ariza guaranteed next year?

*does not look like Ariza has ANYTHING guaranteed next year.....wonder what hte Lakers would have to give up to get Ariza.

id think Ariza on an expiring deal would have at least some kind of market...from a variety of teams.

Nope.

Ariza doesn't even have a player option.

Here's the thing:

KCP has veto power.

Does he take one for the * Klutch * Team?

Well, they did just steal him 32 mil over the last 2 Seasons.

 

[Kold]

well this is interesting

If KCP gets a starting role, which he should on the Suns, he wouldn't veto it.

Why would the Lakers give up a starting PG, with Rondo injured as well, for a forward?

Your pathetic hatred for Lonzo, for some sad reason is laughable

 

[Kold]

my initial thoughts are that we wont tradeone of the youngins for ariza, atleast i think. it'll be interesting to see if this is a trade for this year, or a trade before a bigger trade

He's starting in front of Booker?

I don't think so.

I don't even think he'd start over Bridges.

Devin is out right now.

But, they've already stated a 3rd Team would need to take Pope.

The Suns don't want/need him with Booker, Okobo, Bridges, Jamal Crawford , Melton all needing minutes.

Maybe if they deal a few of them?

I just don't see that happening for a year of KCP.

so like what? KCP and a first for Ariza? 2 2nds?

He didn't mention Lonzo, I did.

He's just responding to it.

 

[tlance]

LOL, way to cover your bases....

HE COULD BE JOHHNY FLYNN

HE COULD BE KEMBA WALKER

thats almost as deep as- the West is better than the East!!!

Wow-- i go to Adrian Woj for some hard hitting analysis but maybe you should take his place!!!!!!!

can you give us some more profound insight?

how about....the Patriots MAY win the super bowl, or they may not!!!!!

Peter King aint got shit on that!!!

LOL

I wasn't trying to make a prediction genius.

But then again, if you would just post the whole thing everyone would see that.

But you won't, because it makes you look bad.

Play#1: take partial quote out of context
Play#5: ignore
Play#6: give rainbow and BS ratings once exposed

Not according to Woj.

It needs to be a 3 team deal because the Suns want someone else to take KCP and they want a PG and a pick or prospect.

 

[Shaqdaddy11]

He didn't mention Lonzo, I did.

He's just responding to it.

In which case I'll redirect the first paragraph to you.

And you can ignore the 2nd

 

[Shaqdaddy11]

KCP to Philly :: Fultz to Phoenix :: Ariza to the Lakers works in the trade machine.

Or...

A trade to clear money to add 2 max guys this Summer?

You only have Lebron, 1 year deals and the youngins....

To get off any significant money, you'd have to move Lonzo and Ingram.

Nobody else makes enough to move the needle.

 

[WiggyRuss]

@Wamu

how about the Brownies?

5 wins!!! LOL....i mean, that feels like 3 seasons worth of wins! lol....

Baker is the real deal. Myles Garret is one of the best defensive players in the league. Browns have got the 2 biggest positions filled with big time talents.

its still gonna take a year or two--- next year to fill some holes, get Baker some experience etc....

but the following year--- Baker's year 3...its playoffs baby!!!! lol...mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaybe even next year if they get lucky.

Yeah, I don't think Lonzo is getting dealt.

But, he's the only guy outside Rondo that fits the criteria....

Hence...3 team deal.

The teams have been working to reach an agreement with a third team that would take on Lakers guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope as part of a potentially larger deal, league sources said.

The Suns want to land a playmaking guard and a draft asset as the price of unloading Ariza, sources said. Phoenix and Los Angeles have made progress in third-team scenarios, although no agreements are close and both teams remain active in multiple trade discussions throughout the league, sources said.

No trade can be completed officially until Saturday, when players like Ariza, who were signed in summer free agency, become eligible to be traded.

if i were them i would trade Ingram and whatever it took to get Beal....move Ball somewhere to clear salary and have LeBron, Beal, and basically a clear roster besides kuzma and hart and TRY and sign a max guy and pray one wants to go there.

Yup.

i dont know how this makes sense--- KCP has no value- in fact- some team will want assets to take KCP.

Lakers will have to give up something, whether its picks or a young player to get Ariza or to get some other team to take KCP and send a playmaking guard to the Suns.

@bksballer89 would u take a Lakers first to take KCP and send Dragic to the Suns? would that make sense?

KCP to Philly :: Fultz to Phoenix :: Ariza to the Lakers works in the trade machine.

why in the samfuck would the Sixers take KCP for Fultz?
