With that name and contract....UNICEF might be the Lakers best bet.

The Lakers have a better chance to trade Luke Walton.

There is no way we trade Beasley and Ridnour for World Peace, Ebanks and some trash draft picks.

We would probably do the deal just for Ridnour but there is no way we throw Beasley in there too.

[HylianNightmare]

no way anyone takes on MWP at this point

[YAWN]

Now hes not even playing anymore.

He got a DNP - Coach's Decision tonight.

"Brown says that World Peace mentioned his sore Achilles pregame; added that McRoberts (toe) could have returned if need be." - Lakers Reporter

If we can get bynum for howard then dwil has leverage to get shipped here for gasol+TPE tho. Pipe dream though most likely. What will clips do with mo williams? Theres still some options somewhere..

You can't package a player with the Trade Exception.

Either the player has a salary under $8.9 Million or it wont work.

Mo Williams is out there but I got a feeling the Clippers wont move him to the Lakers in their bid for LA supremacy. Well, you never know.

Because it would re-unite him with Mike Brown and his salary fits under the Trade Exception, and the Clippers dont really need him

There has to be a move on that list we can pull off that brings a decent player.

Man, I've gone through so many Trade Scenarios since the Lakers got that $8.9 Million Trade Exception. It really is few options as far as an upgrade over Fisher/Blake, but there is like 10-20 PG's out there on cheap contracts who are nothing more than backups.

Some possibilities btw:

Augustin for TPE + Filler.
Gasol for Collison + something else
Reunite the brothers in memphis with Pau for Conley and something else
Gasol for Nash and Frye
Gasol and Ebanks for tony parker and filler
Gasol for calderon and barganni

Granted, some of those may be a stretch or a risk... But idk. I don't think its really down to arenas, ridnour or stick with morris. I hope it isnt, anyways.

Man you really want to dump Gasol. Yikes!

I'll bump this in the next 5-10 months.

Beasley has no long-term future in Minnesota.

There is a 50% chance Minnesota even picks up his $8 Million QO, which depends heavily on how well he finishes the season.

There is 0% chance Minnesota will sign Beasley to a long-term contract extension after this season or next season.

So why are you complaining about "2 trash picks" which equate to 1st Round Picks? Minnesota got Beasley for a future 2nd Rounder.

Listen up Beasley fan, if/when they trade Beasley they're going to get nothing back but a "trash" 1st Rd pick or he'll be a throw-in contract if they try to get Kevin Martin.

Yeah but theres always some workaround like throw in world peace or walton to match the salary, and then give them the trade exception for their worst player.

Lol well if we can get an all star or near all star caliber PG... I'd do it. The game changes if I drop the assumption that howard will force his way here the second we get a solid PG tho... If we do have bynum for sure then I probably want to keep them together. Maybe.

Augustin for TPE + Filler


Lakers: Michael Beasley, Luke Ridnour
T'Wolves: Metta World Peace, Devin Ebanks, 2012 Mavericks 1st Round Pick, 2013 Lakers 1st Round Pick

I'll take it

We aren't trading Pau for Average player+trash. I'll only do Pau if we get Deron and trade Drew for Dwight.

Beas and Augustin should fix our problems. And Luke can play back up for Kobe.

Yeah but trading him to LA for trash is different. I think Beasley would be just as big of a problem as Artest on LA btw. We already saw how trashy he is when he is on a team of players that get shots. He'd be, what, the fourth option?

Knicks will give you Bill Walker and Renaldo Balkman.
