Lakers attempt for Kevin Durant and Hassan Whiteside (1996 all over again)

These deals will to get another star player to entice KD over and also to free up salary to get both guys in Purple n Gold.

-------------------Lakers - Bulls - Sixers---------------------------

I have 2 separate deals because the 1st deal will be Jordan Clarkson Sign n Trade. SnT can't involve others players.

TRADES ARE AFTER THE DRAFT!

Deal 1.

Lakers get: Nikola Mirotic
Bulls get Jordan Clarkson


Deal 2.

Lakers trade: Lou Williams, Nick Young, Julius Randle, Anthony Brown, and their 1st round pick Ben Simmons.

Lakers get: Jimmy Butler and a Chicago 2nd


Bulls trade: Derrick Rose, Jimmy Butler, and a 2nd round pick

Bulls get: Lou Williams, Ben Simmons, Nerlens Noel, and Anthony Brown


Sixers trade: Nerlens Noel

Sixers get: Derrick Rose, Julius Rande, and Nick Young


Lakers-
In the deal they will be getting Star Jimmy Butler, a SG who is a perfect sidekick to Kevin Durant. They give away most all their young talent besides D'Angelo Russell and Larry Nance. After the deals they will have 43m to throw between Durant and Whiteside. Also, they get Nikola Mirotic who can stretch the floor if big man Whiteside who will want a PF like that so he can operate. A similar Duo to Shaq n Horry. To fill out the roster they sign min contracts and Dleague guys. I'd talk to Joe Johnson at signing for 1.5m which he may to contend at a chip and take the 6th man role. Chris Anderson, Vander Blue, and Sasha Vujaic.

D'Angelo Russell I Vander Blue I Marcelo Hueartas
Jimmy Butler I Sasha Vujaic
Kevin Durant I Joe Johnson
Nikola Mirotic I Larry Nance Jr. I Tarik Black
Hassan Whiteside I Birdman



Bulls-
Bulls rebuild by moving on for Rose. Rose was a favorite but he just isn't who he was. I thinking getting Clarkson is a great replacement, very similar style to Rose. He has a great work ethnic and just wants to be the best. They decide to build around Ben Simmons and Nerlens Noel. They no longer have Noah either who left FA. The Bulls now are one of the youngest teams but with tons of upside.

Jordan Clarkson I Lou Williams
Mike Dunleavy I Anthony Brown
Ben Simmons I Doug McDermott I Tony Snell
Taj Gibson I Bobby Portis I Chris Bairstow
Nerlens Noel I 24th pick AJ Hammons


Sixers-
Here IMO get a steal. Rose can bring in fans and tickets sales. The Sixers need to bring in money sales or they're in trouble. Rose is still a fan favorite. They also get Julius Randle who may be a better fit next to the 2 centers. Rose is expiring and will look for a new contract, maybe he stuns us all and stays healthy putting up all star numbers. Definatley a risk work taking. They also draft Brandon Ingram.

Derrick Rose I TJ McConnell
Brandon Ingram I Hollis Thompson
Robert Covington I Jerami Grant I Nick Young
Julius Randle I Dario Saric I Carl Landry
Jahlil Oakfor I Joel Embiid.

Your free agent signings are excellent. However I wouldn't give up Ben Simmons, Randle, Williams, Brown and Young just to get Butler. Same with Deal 2. That one makes no sense. I would say sign Derozan over acquiring Butler. Cause Butler would be too much in trade.

I think that for butler it is worth it, He's one of the premium sg in the nba but giving up simmions is just a lot, if we abandon both your trades and re sign clarkson we have ; PG Russel SG Clarkson SF Durant PF Randle C Whiteside and we have Simmions, Williams, Young , Nancd Jr, Brown, and maybe we can get Oj Mayo and Birdman and sasha to come in and sign low deals.
