Sign and trade would work for everyone. Even if we don’t get the very best players.

Spurs fans going to be really salty when he signs for their MLE lol
Yea, if he takes a paycut spurs def arent getting in a sign&trade. Lakers getting derozan and duarte in the offseason
I won't I want him gone. I will be salty if the Spurs resign him.
Proof is in the pudding.. Will see if he actually takes it or not....
What's a paycut? He isn't signing the mle. Does he sign the 20 to 26 Mil per year and lakers trade kuzma and kcp?
Do the spurs go hard for sexton then, walker 12 and future 1st?
Or a 3 way deal with alt where spurs get Collins and they get kuzma and kcp?
What would you want from them besides picks? I wouldn't want to be throwing money at Schroder when Murray is better and I wouldn't put Harrell above Poetl in the rotation. Don't think Harrell would be excited to sign here to play off the bench.
Kuzma no
Good. He hasn't raised this team's ceiling other than making sure they're a treadmill team in all the years he's been here. Time to move on.
The pickings is low. Essentially he just replace Gay?
Of course he'll take a massive paycut if none of the capspace teams sign him. And that might as well be LA.
If the Knicks or Chicago or Dallas or Miami are out, are I trust Charlotte would be out, then the mle or less is what he'll get.
Good, go choke over there
You guys would really turn down Kuzma, Harrell, and a pick just to spite the Lakers? Really?
Harrell would either have to opt in (unlikely) or the Spurs would have to sign him to a large multi-year contract, and I wouldn't touch Kuzma with a ten foot pole. I'd take the pick, however.
Willing to take a paycut with the Lakers but not with the Spurs huh?
Pay cut doesn’t mean mid level.
Yeah it does because that is all the Lakers could offer if he out and out signs as a free agent.
Exactly. He will take a number that allows them to stay under the hard cap. Something like 18million.
Nope. Him leaving would be a positive, and open up minutes for our young cadre. I’ve said all along that I don’t care about getting a return. It would likely be taking out the Lakers salary trash, in this case, and that cuts into our cap room.
Considering they tampered with Kawhi, pre Toronto trade, destroying his trade value, yeah. We have NO reason to surrender cap-room to obtain ty, middling players.
There are other picks supposedly on the market that won’t involve taking out the Lakers trash. Duarte probably won’t even be there at 22, anyway.
maybe derozan is signaling he will take the spurs two year deal and this is his last desperate move to get a third year, the " if you don't sign me i'll cut myself" move.
LeBron is 36 and will turn 37 in December. As great as he has been, the Lakers have to be sweating right about now. They don't have a couple years to develop a rookie, and their future draft situation is pretty awful too. I'm guessing at this point, the Spurs let DeRozan walk for nothing rather than take on players/contracts they're not interested in. If the Lakers' pick was 12 spots higher I could see it... but #22 just isn't too alluring.
