You’re asking me?
Would you trade ...

Neither scenario is realistic. We ain't getting Kuzma and we ain't getting Gordon.
Would you trade Donovan for Lebron?

No. LeBron could lead us to three titles, tops. Donovan a minimum 10-peat.

I dont know. That’s a tough one.
Love that we can ask this.
And Donovan is more exciting than Lebron. Donovan is like a combination of Curry and Westbrook.

Maybe if Cleveland threw in the BKN pick. 
You are missing the point.
He is unrealistic because there is no scenario where it comes close to making sense.
Mine is unrealistic because the scenario in which it makes some sense is improbable.
No one can tell me that the #2 overall pick + two young players isnt going to at least interest Orlando.

Look guys, I'm not saying the Lakers want to trade Kuzma. I'm suggesting that we make them an offer they can't refuse to get him.
I think we have the assets and every player has a price

The problem is, is that offer is certainly an offer they could refuse.
Yeah bro, they just going to give up a rookie averaging 18 a game if the Jazz trade Favors (0 value), Joe Johnson (0 value), Tony Bradley (little value), and the 2018 pick (moderate value which decreases once the Jazz get Kuzma on their team).
HOW IS THAT AN OFFER THEY CANT REFUSE?

I, personally, liked my make belief, fantasy, LARPing trade of Kuzma to be pretty realistic, because, you know, it's my reality.

Lopez, Zubac, Kuzma and Laker's first rounder for Gobert and Bradley.
Do it, DL. It works on ESPN draft machine so do it already.
I think I typed my tagline prematurely. Damn. Finally know that feeling though.

Cy, *******, my offer is the initial offer. And I guarantee you that the Lakers listen.
Favors has 5x the amount of value as Deng because he is an EXPIRING. Hey look, I can use big letters too. JoeJ is an asset, Deng a massive liability.
But you, captain know it all, doesn't get that logic. Please, send us some more Gordon trade ideas.

I would trade every current asset and take back contracts in order to put Kuzma next to Gobert, Exum and Mitchell long term.
He is the perfect fit. We could make it happen. Its the type deal which could lead to 2019 and beyond title contention.

I agree with this.
No potential move has me more excited than having a healthy Exum in that backcourt with Mitchell.

You’re absolutely right that Favors and JJ are much more significant assets than Deng. The problem is that those deals separate from a Kuzma deal are on a drastically lower level. It would be like Phoenix trying to trade us some draft picks and Greg Monroe for Mitchell, Burks and Rubio, but instead of focusing on the meat of the deal — Mitchell for some picks — they emphasize how much of a steal it is for us to trade two bad contracts for an expiring. Yes, trading our bad salary for an expiring is a great deal, but we’re not trading Mitchell for it.
Favors has ZERO value to the Lakers. Joe Johnson has ZERO value to the Lakers. They don't need to trade Deng for expiring contracts. What part of that don't you understand? You have to be trying to be this ignorant on the matter. You trolling?
Deng has negative value.
Deng is not a liability. He is can extended and stretched. He isn't an issue for the Lakers anymore. Why is that hard for your little brain to comprehend?
All the Lakers have to do to free up space is trade Clarkson (who has no place on a team adding two max contracts) and not extend Randle the QO (which again, no place on a team adding two max contracts). Why on the ****ing Earth would they want to trade Kuzma and keep those two clowns instead? A mid first rounder and Tony Bradley move ZERO needles for the Lakers.
