It’s a pipe dream. You’d need 55 million in salaries going back. It would take all of DLo, Rui, Vando, Gabe,and picks and pick swaps. Portland is on record that they don’t want DLo. If you substitute Reaves, then you also need to send JHS and Lewis …
Dlo, Austain Reaves Vando Gabe 2 first for Simon and grant. I think its fair we also open up 2 roster spots for Lonnie walker and Luke Kennard. Issak okoro? Gordon Hayward?
We don't need Simmons, we need a wing and a big, I think AR is good enough to start at the pg spot and then you can sign someone like Fultz if you need a playmaker If we move DLo, of course
Simons & Grant get paid big bucks to fake injuries. They quit their seasons early. It's a nice cushy setup Portland gave to their best shooters. It's not easy finding talented NBA players who don't care about winning.
@@riveenwickenham8392 reaves been mid & can't guard if Reaves scores 20 it's an amazing day cam Thomas can put 30-40 on ur head any day. For you to say cam is horrendous is wild tho
Its not that cam Thomas is horrendous he is an amazing small guard talent the issue is he is a one trick pony. Outside of scoring he does nothing else. He is a small guard who doesn't defend he is 6'1 mayb . Lakers need players who bring size versatility n defense. Guys like kuzma ingram etc. Cam Thomas id the type of player who scores 30 or 40 or 50 on a bunch of losing teams . Celtics Lakers Heat Spurs alot of those championship caliber teams will never go after him . Plus he needs the ball in his hands . I like Simon's from Portland better for the lakers then cam Thomas. Lakers should trade for anfernee Simon's n DeAndre ayton . Both guys are upgrades offensively .
Lakers fans sure like to dream. Portland has 16 players under contract just or make the salaries it’s a 4 for 2 swap of vando, dlo, Vincent and rui for grant and Simon’s And even then Portland would have to waive two players Portland can’t take back all the salaries of reddish wood jhs they don’t have open roster spots their not going to trade for them then just waive them. you could get a third team but what would you give them jhs reddish and some 2nds? Nobody’s jumping in as a facilitator without some good compensation.
POR has NEVER Traded with US and in order to get Their 2 Best Players, not only will We have to completely strip Our Team but, We have to give up every available 1st Round Pic(k)!!! POR would be Happy if We were Horrible for The Next Decade!!!

They are not going to score 20 pts a game for the Lakers. They took the most shots on the Blazers. They were able to chuck away. Anyone knows Bron & AD will take the most shots, so those two will have their shots cut drastically.
Dlo is better than him. His defense is worst than Dlo. Simons only had one healthy season in 7 years where he played 70 games max. Simons is only 25 and he cant stay healthy that alone is red flags.
Why not trade for Simons and Williams
I been wanting the Lakers to trade for him. I even wanted them to draft him.
Lakers stand pat...run it back and dump a few vet min contracts & sign a bruiser center. Let's roll!
I’d like a Simmons and time lord deal over grant, that be worth the 2 picks
Definitely him over grant
We need an athlete at Point Simons perfect fit
Problem with Dlo he not an athlete
If Simons can play some defense I wouldn’t mind it, Williams and AD would be a scary duo
Get both
Simons please....

Trade for 2 starters on a team that finished dead last in the west. That is the way to be a contender? Plus give up draft capital?
Minnesota did that and drastically improved lol

Simmons, will complicate the
Lakers plans, of getting a wendell Carter, or a Kessler,
If they get Geramy Grant.
Cam Johnson is my number 1 target like I been saying but I would take Simmons too

The lakers need a center. NOT
A GUARD, and a forward that can score, and play defense.
What does it take to get Cam Thomas & why is Reaves never in any of these trades he's replaceable
Cam Thomas is a horrendous player, literal downgrade from reaves. Reaves has winning habits and cam Thomas has losing habits.

Simons and Williams then make another trade with Magic to get Carter jr
Just don’t trade dlo
Lakers need a wing not a another guard this shows you how desperate the Lakers fans are

Already have a guard better than him that costs less. His name is DLO
