    Don't stop there. And I might shake up the starters a bit.

    Russell/Clarkson/Huertas
    Clarkson/Ingram/Williams
    Deng/Winslow/Brown
    Randle/Nance/McRoberts
    Mozgov/Black/Zubac

    Could go small with Russell/Clarkson/Ingram/Randle/Black
    Could go big with Russell/Ingram/Deng/Randle/Mozgov

    Salivating.

    Calderon! I want Calderon. He'd be a terrific backup PG for us and he's an expiring 7 million dollar contract. Snatch him up Mitch! I'd also be cool with McDermott, Mirotic, and Portis.

    Go get Calderon AND Winslow and I'll stop asking to take your job! :D

    Man it may be pipe, but it would be awesome if we offered to absorb Taj Gibson + Calderon for Swaggy + 2nd rounder and they accepted. It would give them $11+ mil more in cap room to sign Wade for the $23 mil per year or so he's demanding, and would give us around $15 mil in expiring deals for next summer tied into decent veteran players.

    Give me Calderon! Damn I hope Mitch is on on this like I am.

    Russell/Calderon/Huertas
    Clarkson/Williams

    Such a good set of veterans for our young guys.

    But they want to dump salary. Even with a buyout that only makes $5m for them. Right?

    Right. The only way they'd even entertain taking Nick back is if we took Gibson as well and didn't take a pick. I'd rather we deal with Nick ourselves and take on as much of their salary as they need while taking a pick from them as well.

    Calderon/2nd
    or
    Calderon/Gibson/Protected 1st

    I'd put that offer on the table absolutely. I don't care if they get Wade, we get an asset and two expiring contracts. Let's roll.

    It was a joke by CaChooka and I was playing along. Look at my other responses. :)

    Apparently Calderon can't be traded in combination with another player.

    Trade 1: Calderon for trade exception.
    Trade 2: Dunleavy for a 1st and a trade exception.

    Lakers
    Russell/Calderon/Huertas
    Clarkson/Williams/A.Brown
    Deng/Ingram/Dunleavy
    Randle/Nance
    Mozgov/Black/Zubac

    Calderon expires, LA is on the hook for ~4.5m for Dunleavy next season.

    Not opposed. That's Mike's son right? Probably has some ties here actually.

    Damn. If we could fleece 'em for a 1st and a 2nd, that would be sick.
