Can We Trade for Lou Williams?

[SCS]

Korver and Williams would be deadly.

So would DM/Williams lineups

 

[Miggs]

Bring in Royce and Jae with around 5:00 left in the 1st for Joe and Faves.

Start the 2nd quarter by running out Lou-Korver-Joe-Jae and Faves.

Royce/Lou would be a great end-game hockey substitution combo.

I think we'd have a chance at getting Lou and I'd trade for him in a heartbeat. He is exactly what the Jazz need, a 6th man who can create his own shot and is instant offense.

Here are a couple trades I think would work, especially if the Clippers will be playing for the future instead of trying to make the playoffs this year. They are in 8th place right now but I think that will change quickly once Bron Bron is back healthy for the Lakers.

Exum and Grayson Allen for Lou

Might have to add in a 2nd round pick.

The only way I can see anyone getting Lou would be if they took on Gallo's 20+ million dollar contract for next year as well.

That would give LAC cap room for 3 max contracts next year.

Here just a few weeks ago we were talking about how Gallo would be prices out of our range.

My how the turntables.

Believe me, I'm not advocating we take on Gallo - I was speaking to any team trying to get LW.

If Utah would be in this deal, I'd hope it would be a three way trade.

A month ago I was really wanting Gallo. He’s injured now, so... I’ll chalk that up to always being interested to buy high and never buy low. Getting Gallo and Lou would be pretty big, though, if Gallo could be healthy.

He routinely misses 20 to 40 games every year and will be 31 - my guess is no.

After his contract is up I can see maybe using him in a reduced role as an instant offense guy a la Joe Johnson - but even then I dunno.
