    Truth. Kuz gives us the value of Deng’s contract at a fraction of the price.

    You trade Kuzma for that sack of crap and I would walk.

    Actually im saying attaching that sack of crap to Kuz ;) Doesnt sound like stretching Deng will allow us to sign two All-Stars AND retain Julius. Pretty much according to real.

    Then we don’t retain Julius... What makes you think we’d trade Kuzma to keep Randle? I’ve seen nothing pointing to the possibility of that. Hell, I think we’d get rid of Luke for not playing him enough before we got rid of Kuzma. Kuzma is this front office’s pick, Luke is not their coaching hire.

    Quadruple like. Kuz isn' going anywhere but to superstardom with the Lakers.. Ball and Kuz are out version of Stockton and Malone. Plus we have Ingram and Randle. We are set for the next 12 years if we dont do anything rash or stupid. I'm greedy, I want KCP too.

    I haven't really chimed in this thread bc I don't know how many times I can't say, "wow" or "what a steal". Ryan West and Joey Buss strike again? Keeper in any circumstance. He is a Laker.

    Congrats to Kuz!

    You all know how much I love Randle, but yeah, Kuzma over Randle is an easy choice.

    Ball, Ingram and Kuzma are untouchable.

    No just no.

    I’d rather not get a max free agent then trade Kuzma.

    It’s not happening. Period.

    Lakers are NOT trading Kuz. yeah, we wanna get rid of Deng. But for who? And are they better than Kuz will be? Makes no sense.

    Use Kuzma just to trade Deng so we can potentially sign an all-star? I'd rather try and find another way, because I think Kuzma has a chance to be that good anyway.

    We will not be trading Kuz. He's exactly the kind of player our FO wanted going forward - a position-less style player who can shoot from everywhere on the court and get his own. And he's on a rookie contract to boot. If you are looking for guys to move with Deng I am guessing it's going to be more like Zu who has fallen out of favor. Maybe just maybe Nance but not nearly as likely. Possibly Hart. Zu looks like the most likely candidate.

    I can't believe there have been so many comments addressing the [​IMG] Penguins' hallucinatory post about using Kuzma to dump Deng.

    Pass the good stuff @SFGOLDRUSHER if you honestly think we are going to use Kuzma to trade Deng.

    I mean I get it might be the only option if you want to trade Deng but you'd tell the team offering that to take that deal and shove it.

    They do that and it'll be Magic's legacy as President.

    2-3 years from now. "One of the emerging stars in NBA that was once a Laker Rookie, the wrong rookie to get traded just to unload Deng."
