Fisher
Kobe
Artest
Odom
Bynum

S. Jackson

I love that core

Trade #3 is lopsided in the Hawks favor and trade #4 is lopsided in the Lakers favor. I think only trade #2 is doable.

Tyronn Lue has Triangle Offense experience. Sammy Mejia is a 6'7" point guard, also a combo guard. Cheikh Samb is a pretty good Center to have.

so, this pistons are going to trade their only secure starting 4/5 for a 3/4 (who really does very little on defense as a 4)? And throw in a big man prospect and a recent pick?

Dont think so.

Re: Trades That Will Make The Los Angeles Lakers Better Than They Are Now!!! Trust Me
 

Trade number four is not lopsided in the Los Angeles Lakers favor. The Golden State Warriors get some greatly needed depth and size at a position they were weak and vulnerable in last season.

Furthermore, it seems like the Warriors are more interested in getting under the cap (ie: trading away Jason Richardson). The Golden State Warriors get two expiring contracts as well.

Trade #3 is not lopsided for the Atlanta Hawks. Both teams greatly benefit from that trade.

Kobe Bryant for an expirer and a 1st round pick.

Re: Trades That Will Make The Los Angeles Lakers Better Than They Are Now!!! Trust Me
 

??

Biedrins is better and more valuable than both Kwame and Turiaf combined. He is pretty much the only player on the Warriors who gives them consistent post D and rebounding. The Warriors already have their future frontcourt in Biedrins and Wright.

It is lopsided in the Lakers favour.

Re: Trades That Will Make The Los Angeles Lakers Better Than They Are Now!!! Trust Me
 

Jason Maxiell can get more playing time. Lamar Odom won't be the first or the second option. The Los Angeles Lakers don't have to include Cheikh Samb or Sammy Mejia if they don't want to. The main players in the trade are Lamar Odom and Rasheed Wallace, so if it was a one for one trade, it would be alright.

Furthermore, I believe that the system the Detroit Pistons are playing in would be beneficial towards Lamar Odom. It would bring out his strengths rather than his weaknesses.

The Los Angeles Lakers can throw in a future first rounder. No big deal. Baron Davis and Ronny Turiaf would keep the arena electrified. Imagine Ronny Turiaf on the Golden State Warriors??? That would be a nice team.

Re: Trades That Will Make The Los Angeles Lakers Better Than They Are Now!!! Trust Me
 

Not if Turiaf is replacing a younger and already better player like Biedrins.

Re: Trades That Will Make The Los Angeles Lakers Better Than They Are Now!!! Trust Me
 

Andris Biedrins played more minutes than Ronny Turiaf so Ronny Turiaf didn't really have a chance to prove himself like Andris Biedrins did.

the lakers should sign blue edwards, todd day and tyus edney to 3 yr contracts, they swould give their current starters a run for their money.

Re: Trades That Will Make The Los Angeles Lakers Better Than They Are Now!!! Trust Me
 

So trade our two biggest trade commodities (besides Kobe) for Sheed and a backup PG in Lue. No thanks, I'd rather trade Odom/Bynum for JO

Re: Trades That Will Make The Los Angeles Lakers Better Than They Are Now!!! Trust Me
 

Lamar Odom and Andrew Bynum for Jermaine O'Neal wouldn't work contractually. They have to throw in more contracts that the Indiana Pacers don't want.

Tyronn Lue has Triangle Offense experience and played well for the Los Angeles Lakers.
