will attempt to trade lottery pick for Love

[Michael Jordan.]

Which inevitably leads you to ask: What next?

The suggestion is already in circulation that the Lakers will attempt to use their forthcoming high lottery pick in June to assemble the sort of trade package that finally convinces the Wolves to part with Love and end the uncertainty that hangs over this franchise even before the 25-year-old enters the final year of his contract. Yet there is just as much defiance emanating from Minnesota, as we speak, about the Wolves' ability to keep Love in town.

:lol man the Lakers are so pathetic. Do you guys really not know how to build a team/player? Like damn.. it's not even funny anymore.

[sook]

^10$ says its Kerby's choice to do that

[Clipper Nation]

:lmao Please do trade your lottery pick for Stat-Padder, Lakers.... and sign Fatmelo too :lol

[Robz4000]

:lol Does Kobe/Melo/Love win more playoff games than Nash/Kobe/Pau/Dwert tbh?

So it's a lateral move? About what I expected.

[N0 LyF3 ScRuB]

How much do you want to bet that LA will be the ESPN favorite to win the West next year? :lmao..

[RsxPiimp]

If it's a Top 3, Lakers should keep and ignore KB's taunt, outside that, I can see them trading it since no one is worth building around with.

You don't trade picks when you're trying to rebuild.

[Killakobe81]

No way should Lakers make that deal.
Unless it drops to ...
Wait no way even at 8 rather have young player + cap space than Love + Kobe + no cap space.

[Kool Bob Love]

Do it Mitch!!!!

[HemisfairArena]

Its gonna be funny when the Lakers trade that lottery pick and KLove bolts for New York for Phil Jackson after next year. Lakers lose out on a rookie building block and KLove does his best DHoward impression leaving LaLa land crying again.

[RsxPiimp]

You don't trade picks when you're trying to rebuild.

Of course you can, but it's all semantics.

[Kool Bob Love]

Of course you can, but it's all semantics.
Not with this cba.

[RsxPiimp]

Cite me a valid reason how anyone with cap space wouldn't be able to rebuild.:lol We're obviously looking outside the Kobe's tenure, just in case someone wants to bring that up.

[Koolaid_Man]

9th seed, tbh.... Love is a career loser who's allergic to the playoffs :lol

CP0 says hi

[Clipper Nation]

CP0 says hi

CP3 has played in the postseason, Love hasn't :lol

[Koolaid_Man]

We have 2 options amongst other things....1.) sign Melo, keep the pick and you get Love for free in 2015 :lol or 2.) trade the pick, forget Melo and sign Durant in 16

[MeloHype]

CP0 says hiCP0 has been to the playoffs dipshit

[Koolaid_Man]

CP3 has played in the postseason, Love hasn't :lol

and Pau was 0-12 before Kobe took him in ;-)

[Koolaid_Man]

CP0 has been to the playoffs dipshit

ooohhhh awwwww he's been to the play-offs how many Mike and Ike's would you like :lol he's still 0 & Forever

[Clipper Nation]

ooohhhh awwwww he's been to the play-offs how many Mike and Ike's would you like :lol he's still 0 & Forever

Yet you've already started to slurp Kevin L0ve :lol

[Koolaid_Man]

Yet you've already started to slurp Kevin L0ve :lol

Love Kobe....what a perfect combination :lmao

[Mugen]

Mitch. Do it. Do it, Mitch.

[DPG21920]

First off, if Love is available for just a lottery pick, there will be plenty of teams with a better pick + probably more young talent/ability to eat contracts than LA.

[HemisfairArena]

We have 2 options amongst other things....1.) sign Melo, keep the pick and you get Love for free in 2015 :lol or 2.) trade the pick, forget Melo and sign Durant in 16

or.....3.)'Melo re-ups in New York. KLove joins him and Rondo in 2015 under Phil Jackson. Durant re-ups in OKC and Davis re-us in NO.

& aside from 6 you'll be right as the rain.

proud of that loser :lmao :lmao :lmao

[Gummi Clutch]

Lakers can trade for Love.

Won't change:

Duncan : 3

Kobe : 2

[dallasmaverickslose]

Lakers can trade for Love.

Won't change:

Duncan : 3

Kobe : 2

It's really more like

Duncan : 3

Kirby : 0


Everyone knows Pau shouldve gotten those finals mvp trophies.

Yea that is the truth, but what fun would it be then? We all know that Duncan has been leading the winningest franchise in sports, gotta give Kerby a handicap similar to the one he wheels around in :rollin

So we'll stick with

Duncan: 3

Kobe: 2

[HI-FI]

i'll admit that I don't know shit about how good this draft is. Danny Ainge thinks there aren't any game changers. Maybe Lakers want to put together a playoff team with Rapist while they can, sell some more tickets and then try to do a real rebuild once Kobe rides off into the Colorado sunset.
