True, but it depends on how many picks are offered and if we can get a star or 2 as well to pair with AD.

That would be Magic’s angle. As far as I’m concerned it’s looking like he wants to do something huge. I think the only way I can stomach LeBron playing with us is if we have AD also.

Guys....


I want Randle to stay


:to:


Rather he stay than LeThot hold us hostage every year

Breh has been balling this year, especially since he got his starter spot back: 18/9/3 on 57/74 and much improved defense (save for rim protection, he'll always be poor in that regard).

That Randle>Parker might end up being prophetic :mjlol:

We might have to throw Randle in a sign and trade as well.

But AD/PG/ZO would be a great core for years to come.

You give up as many picks as it takes. :comeon:

Brow turns 25 this month and has three more years left on his deal. He'll be a free agent again in his prime at 28 years old. Every team in the league would kill to have him and he's light years better than anyone on this current roster.

I don't really think giving up multiple future firsts is a great of an idea, even if it's AD.
Every team prays that a future pick turns into AD. You give up all of them to have the real thing. If they couldn't make it work and put a contender around a talent like that, they would deserve whatever fallout occured.

He's also on the best contract in the league right now value-wise; making $24 million this season and it slowly creeps up to $28.

You still need to score a lot to be a max PG in the league :whoa:

He def need to improve on that.

I don't think he has to score that much and that is not his mindset. He will probably have a lot of 15 ppg years due to how he plays the game but his teams will be rated really highly in efficiency.

New Orleans is only letting go of AD for another top 10 player AND picks. I don't think the Lakers have the assets to get AD.
