Schroder, KCP, and THT isn't a ton to give up for Lowry. Schroder is a free agent after this season and KCP is one of the most overpaid players in the league.

Lowry is the best player in that deal... He turned 35 today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kip Smithers Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 I get why Miami would be hesitant to give up Hierro. What I don’t get is what Lakers are doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Celtics couldn't even beat that, so how can we say they have good young talent? I mean you aren't putting Brown/Tatum in any package, but the Celtics hardly have any young pieces that are intriguing and that's a big problem. Who knows what the Cs offered? Nesmith or Langford got more value than Hampton, but the Cs don't have a Harris to send out. Like you said, there's no one move to fix the Cs so I'm more than happy with Fournier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we could get Drummond on the down low - and keep the roster intact - we've got ourselves a shot at a ring IMO. Probably wont happen though. CLE will drag it out till the last minute and trade him to somebody for an equipment manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THT shouldn't be a stopping point. What would make me hesitate is giving up the only 2 trade chips they have for a pending FA. If they trade THT and the 2027 1st and Lowry leaves in free agency, then they gutted the roster for a rental. Of course if it gets them a title then it'd be worth it. If the Lakers could get him to agree to a 2 year extension then it'd be a huge win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I promise you, if you think Andre Drummond is the difference between winning a title and not then the Lakers are further away from contention than you think. Drummond isn't swinging anything in a series against the Clippers or Nets. Edited March 25, 2021 by seminoles1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then his (supposed) desire to come the LA - the Lakers locker room - will do the rest. We need: 1. A full / healthy roster. 2. An answer in the middle. Trezz is a good PF. So's AD. Gasol's the weak link in the front court IMO - but thats just a personal preference. I dont like big, slow guys that cant jump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
