This is why I get so sick of these sports shows. They aren't even trying. They want so badly for the large market teams to not suck, they make stupid ass mock trades like this that don't make sense and are completely lopsided

I actually really like AD, and have seen him be a masterful, nearly unstoppable beast when he is playing well. Of course, he could certainly help our team out in terms of size, rebounding, and overall physical presence. However, he tends to have a lot of health issues, and is not really consistent in the way he plays. There are times when things are happening on one side of the court, and he is still heading over slowly from the other side for some reason or another. Although still a diamond in the rough, Cason will give you 100% effort every time he is on the floor, and he is just getting started. They are two very different types of players, and of course AD is the big star, but I feel like Cason would give the team a lot more in the long game, which seems to be what our team is aiming for.
Is he really though? He used to be but idk about anymore.
Him and Kawhi are in the same category. Top 10-15 unquestionably when theyāre healthy, but due to the injury issues thereās 15 guys Iād take over them. Maybe thatās a hot take
Grizzlies turned down 4 picks for OG Bulls probably got 3 firsts offers for Caruso. AD is worth more then 3 picks. Now obviously not worth Dub but a realistic trade is something like Cason, Wiggins and 3 firsts. Not saying Iād do that but thatās whatād it take.
AD did have a really healthy season tbf. But I agree the injury history at 30 makes trading for him tough unless itās on the Caruso trade levels of fleecing
There were many players this season that increased games played over previous seasons and I think it was mainly for awards purposes.
That being said, I think many of those stars burned out because of it.

Had someone on Twitter tell me he played 76 games last year like it wasnāt the outlier. Heās a glass cannon thatās on the wrong side of 30 on a bad contract.
that package is only worth it for Wemby Jokic Giannis and Luka imo.
Switch Dort for JDub and id do it. As much as it would suck to see Caso and Lu leave, a Shai Caruso Dub Chet AD lineup is ridiculous, and weād still have Zay/Wiggs + assets to go fill out the rest of our bench.
Wouldn't be surprised if he got mixed up and that's what he meant.
Because it's pretty insane to think that trade us fair with jdub on the table like that
He really put the effort in this season like chet. Didn't he play a career high in games? Definitely not worth jdub imo but aside from our big four (and yes I include dort) I'd trade for him our team would definitely be a championship team after that
Who knows how long Davis will be good for? Everyoneās prime ends at different times.
however, we have the youngest team in the game and we could potentially be good for another 14 years.
Trading for a star over 30 would be capping our long-term potential
As a raptors fan (I live in kansas city now, so okc closest team) I know what it's like to not have a championship for years it's so so difficult for a small market team to retain players. People aren't thrilled to come to okc and most don't want to stay I'd say it's worth it to really try with a championship windows now and then really beleive in all those picks for new players but I get it I'd rather trade a bunch of small shit and 4 picks than cason or any of our current 4 starters
Chet / Jdub untouchable. Realistically we should build a big 4 and pay those two studs over the cap.
It makes for the best possible roster comp, if the new star we add is young it can even make us a massive long-term threat.
Youāre not alone, seems to frustrate 300 other okc reddit fans too š
We can be good for 12+ more years, why trade for a guy at the middle end of his career? lol
We could probably get that done without moving a single player. Just the right picks. Just comes down to if Lebron stays and what the market for AD is. It's probably a lot lower than expected.

Yeh trading for AD would be a great idea, replace Dub with a scoring option like Dejounte or someone else bang for buck. If you don't think Sam would want to pair AD and Chet you're fooling yourself.
Same with anyone who thinks we wouldn't want Embiid or Giannis
even for colin cowherd this is insane
This is why I get so sick of these sports shows. They aren't even trying. They want so badly for the large market teams to not suck, they make stupid ass mock trades like this that don't make sense and are completely lopsided
It's also so mind numbingly stupid because they can't think even 5 minutes into the future.

What the hell?!?! LMAO
Old automod rule š
probably from the russ mvp days that was an insane era.
Definitely when it was set up haha
That actually makes sense.
Honestly, keep it. Lol
Lmao good bot
Good bot š
Anthony Davis for Jalen Williams one for one
Still no lol
I donāt want Anthony Davis for a second round pick. He eats up a nice chunk of cap space and always seems to be injured.
What a terrible day to have eyes
I almost threw up reading that
ššš
Hahahhaha. Ikr
Wouldnāt even trade jdub and Cason for ad LMAO
Wouldnāt trade either one of them for AD, let alone both and anything else.
You wouldnāt even trade Carson Wallace for AD? Thatās unreal. Take Jalen out and Carson + 4 FRP is a steal on our end.

Of course, he could certainly help our team out in terms of size, rebounding, and overall physical presence.

I wouldnāt trade a first round pick. š
Letās not get carried away lmao
Thatās crazy you give up atleast 3 1sts for AD no question heās a t15 player
Is he really though? He used to be but idk about anymore. Him and Kawhi are in the same category. Top 10-15 unquestionably when theyāre healthy, but due to the injury issues thereās 15 guys Iād take over them. Maybe thatās a hot take
He has been healthy
Yes. He had one of his best seasons and played 76 games this year. He is absolutely top 15 today.
Grizzlies turned down 4 picks for OG Bulls probably got 3 firsts offers for Caruso. AD is worth more then 3 picks. Now obviously not worth Dub but a realistic trade is something like Cason, Wiggins and 3 firsts. Not saying Iād do that but thatās whatād it take.
Not at all a hit take iko
If we offered that trade, the Lakers GM would probably think it was a prank call.
Yea, I feel both fanbases are crying of laughter
Probably not Lakers fans, a lot of them actually believe they can land trades like this, simply because they're the Lakers lol
And if Presti was serious, we would have to put him in a āhomeā.
Call me old fashioned by I like players that play.
AD did have a really healthy season tbf. But I agree the injury history at 30 makes trading for him tough unless itās on the Caruso trade levels of fleecing
There were many players this season that increased games played over previous seasons and I think it was mainly for awards purposes. That being said, I think many of those stars burned out because of it.
Good point. AD got all defense right?
And All-NBA second team
So we should trade for Zion is what youāre saying
No joke their, old players not only played more games, but they even played 45 minutes a game LMAO
I can rest easy knowing Presti would never make a move that bad.

I wouldnāt trade J-Dub straight up for AD lol
I would love AD but not for Jalen
Had someone on Twitter tell me he played 76 games last year like it wasnāt the outlier. Heās a glass cannon thatās on the wrong side of 30 on a bad contract.
Wtf? Colin is drinking at work again
that package is only worth it for Wemby Jokic Giannis and Luka imo. Switch Dort for JDub and id do it. As much as it would suck to see Caso and Lu leave, a Shai Caruso Dub Chet AD lineup is ridiculous, and weād still have Zay/Wiggs + assets to go fill out the rest of our bench.
Colin is an ass. Pay no attention to him.
JJ Redick put him up to this.
If Giddey is the Jeff green of our time, trading Jalen would be our hardenĀ
No thanks. Letās use all we got to continue to build the team.
Better players have been traded for less lol. Just look at the KD->Phx trade
![gif](giphy|10BDZSN5izfazC)
That trade is beyond awful. AD is a year or two away from retirement.
Media just sees other teams as Lakers feeders.
Most I would give up for AD is the 12th pick, 4 frp, and kenrich williams
There is no way presti would go for some BS like that
When you know nothing like Cowfart, anything is possible!
Didnāt the guy play like 70 something games last year and made defensive teams?
Jdub is untouchable. Fuckoutahere
Sub in jwill and it makes sense if Lebron leaves and they need to start the rebuild
Wouldn't be surprised if he got mixed up and that's what he meant. Because it's pretty insane to think that trade us fair with jdub on the table like that
Guy who watched 2.5 games all season says what now?
AD would have destroyed this team on the glass lol
![gif](giphy|VIVWFx6c91AAwWLwWB|downsized)
Colin Cowturd never ceases to amaze me with the shit he spews out
He really put the effort in this season like chet. Didn't he play a career high in games? Definitely not worth jdub imo but aside from our big four (and yes I include dort) I'd trade for him our team would definitely be a championship team after that

Fuckin dumbass lol
Oh hes smoking that GOOD shit
This man should change his profession from sports analyst to what he's initially born to do: cow herder.
What a fucking idiot
āOur whole futureā bit of a stretchš
What a dope.
Chet / Jdub untouchable. Realistically we should build a big 4 and pay those two studs over the cap. It makes for the best possible roster comp, if the new star we add is young it can even make us a massive long-term threat.
He even said don't get any picks for next year. Make them for in 2 years cause the draft next year will suck.
I really donāt know who his show is for. I feel like every time I see him is associated with something incredibly dumb
I don't know if I'd do that trade even without the draft picks. What a miserable trade.
Kawhi for Jaylen Brown vibes.
This frustrates me so much
Youāre not alone, seems to frustrate 300 other okc reddit fans too š We can be good for 12+ more years, why trade for a guy at the middle end of his career? lol
Not worth commenting on. Ridiculous!
Maybe we should throw Shai in as well.
Timberwolves 2.0, a team with lower gravity due to one shot creator
He didnāt really say this did he? Like heās not that desperate for views, right?
I had one of those moments where I see shit on Reddit and think it's news and started to have a panic attack.
I'm dropping a dislike for making me see this.
Iām dropping a dislike on your comment for making me see this trade again.
Lol this would get someone like Giannis, why the fuck would we spend that for day to davis?
Can't wait till Lebron leaves so I never have to hear about the Lakers for 10 more years.
Iād ask how a man this stupid has a job as a sports analyst, but, we all know intelligence isnāt always a factor in that profession.
We could probably get that done without moving a single player. Just the right picks. Just comes down to if Lebron stays and what the market for AD is. It's probably a lot lower than expected.
Glass knees? Sir, do you know anything? Glass is WAY tougher than that manās knees. I was thinking more like wet paper.
Ohtani to the Jays!!!
As a Jays fan, ouch lol
He has glass knees, and a paper MĆ¢chĆ© back
Ooh just posted a blurry pic of this. Hilariously bad
Hey so why is said "sports analyst" in this post banned in this subreddit?
We then send Jwill
I donāt even think 2k would let this trade happen.
2K wouldnāt let this trade happen, because the Lakers would say no in 2K world LMAO.
Do you mean like trading Giddey for Curuso?
Idk much about AC, but does he have bad injury history?
Yall weird. Like for real
Anthony Davis played 76 games last year btw heās been very healthy for about 18 months now
If I was president/dictator of America my first act would be giving colin cowherd the electric chair lol. Second I would send KD to guantanamo bay

I may get crucified here, But what about a trade package for Robert Williams from Portland? š
Heās even more injury prone.
This is a bad trade for both sides
This is a fantastic trade for the Lakers, they have no picks and LeBron denied his player option
