good to know we can get rid of him so easy
Seems like a rare opportunity to put a fantasy post-season together:
C: Whiteside (Sacre) (Black)
PF: Horford (Nance Jr) (Randle)
SF: DeRozan (Young) (Brown)
SG: Clarkson (Barbosa)
PG: Williams (Russell) (Huertas)
Mix of youth and experienced power there
Obviously there is an issue with DeRozan at 3, but that also depends on Clarkson remaining.

Whiteside, Horford and Derozan
Ok, we have two options
#1) I can fly out to wherever it is you live and kick your ass,
or
#2) You can do me a solid, and save me the money and just punch yourself in the face
#1) Randle has a higher ceiling than Horford, so why would they spend that money on Horford when they have a 21 year old PF who was among the league leaders in double-doubles
#2) Derozan is not a small forward. He is a Shooting Guard, and we already have Clarkson to develop in that position
The only move that makes sense is Whiteside

I did mentioned the DeRozan issue, he'd have to adapt like Kobe. Having an experienced post presence is an option at least, I don't know Horford's salary or minutes. Otherwise it would be more like an experienced C plus Randle. I'm just looking at DeRozan's background and surely there is interest from both parties.
There's just too many permutations. But three important players (two big/future stars) looks on the cards?

Yeah, well, maybe you should actually check what people have been reporting lately. I'm not the one that brought this up.
Nice try though.
Because you know, he would have no desire to play in the biggest market he has ever played in before, on a team with young talent, the 2nd pick in the draft , a brand new young head coach, and by far the most cap space in the league next year
But again, I AM NOT THE ONE THAT IS REPORTING THIS.

Meanwhile, in Philadelphia, you are going to draft a kid whose entourage has been angling for a year to get him on the team with the pick directly behind yours.

I'm not the one that came up with this out of the blue. I have also said that when push came to shove, that Lebron wasn't going to go to Los Angeles, so please don't take my post and assume that I already think that it is some sort of done deal and call me delusional.
However.
If they do trade the #2 pick and Randle for Demarcus Cousins, they wouldn't do that unless they knew that someone BIG was coming

I always loved Lebron.
I just absolutely hated the way he left Cleveland.
Then, come to find out that Dan Gilbert is the biggest fucking douchebag owner in the NBA, and I changed my mind.

And I doubt he leaves Cleveland again, he's only got a few years left in the tank.
Also, the only reason his entourage is angling for LA is because they've never been to Philly to realize how awesome of a city it is.
He called me and Lakers Fans delusional because I made a comment based on television reports and articles.

Bleacher report is reporting something that Stephen A Smith reported.
I've been to Philly. I LOVE Philadelphia. I've also been to Los Angeles.
Sorry man, but LA>>>>Philly

"If they do trade the #2 pick and Randle for Demarcus Cousins"
I think it would be retarded for Lakers to try and take shortcuts and in couple of seasons end up in the same position as they are now.
As you said I'd rather trust the young guns and rebuild.
