How about this?
Bucks trade: Grayson Allen + 2024 2nd rd pick Bucks receive: Crowder Why? Milwaukee is a win-now team and needs a guy like Crowder more than they do Allen.
Suns trade: Crowder, Saric + 2023 1st rd pick Suns receive: Bogdanovic Why? Bogdanovic is a solid SF/PF averaging 20.1ppg and shooting 41.6% on threes. They give up two guys not helping them and a late 1st to add a huge piece for this season and next to go with CP3, Booker, Ayton etc.
Pistons trade: Bogdanovic Pistons receive: Allen, Saric, 2023 1st rd pick, 2024 2nd rd pick
Why: Bogdanovic is playing very well. He's also 33 and the Pistons suck. They gave up nothing to get him ( Olynyk, Saben Lee, cash), so they are flipping him for good pieces.

According to Heavy.com, Bulls might target Duncan Robinson.
With that contract, I doubt it but for shiggles Coby White + Alex Caruso for Duncan Robinson works.

Bleacher Report 3 way trade idea:
The Lakers trade Russell Westbrook, Patrick Beverley, Kendrick Nunn and two future first-round picks (2027 and 2029). The Brooklyn Nets trade Kyrie Irving to the Los Angeles Lakers. The Detroit Pistons trade Bojan Bogdanović, Alec Burks and Nerlens Noel to the Los Angeles Lakers.
Perhaps inspired by their three game winning streak, the Lakers may decide to back off their insistence on maintaining 2022 cap space and their 1st rd picks to do a win-now move and go for it. To which a not suspended Kyrie + the shooting of Bogjan + the versatility/shooting of Burks would naturally improve them as a team. Title contention? I mean..... Lebron, AD, Kyrie, Bogdan - while old and unreliable for health - would be arguably the best 4 in the NBA right now. So maybe?
Having said that, yeah Lakers won't do this.

lol Pat Bev is a clown, but you'd probably love him as a team mate.
Atleast AD is going beast mode for my fantasy stats.
and the Nets can not lose that game...horrible loss, and they need another big bad.

I actually think it's a no-brainer for the Lakers but not sure why the other teams do it and it doesn't help the article doesn't tell you who gets who besides the Lakers. I assume the 2 firsts get split between Detroit and Brooklyn. Maybe Kyrie's trade value is low enough that a first and some expiring deal(s) is enough but I think the Pistons may want more than that for Bogdanovic because I believe if they put him on the market a team could probably offer more than a pick 5 or 7 years out. It looks like a bailout deal for the Lakers and I don't know why Brooklyn or Detroit would be interested in doing that. I agree that the Lakers probably won't do it though. For now at least. I think they're still holding onto hope that this team will find an identity and in fairness, they look like a better team than the start of the season. AD is playing out of his mind so I can see them hoping that continues when LeBron comes back (which looks like Friday). But come January and they still look bad, I can see the Lakers getting more aggressive in the market.

Atleast AD is going beast mode for my fantasy stats. and the Nets can not lose that game...horrible loss, and they need another big bad. Pat Bev clearly is trying to do something to show he's valuable in some aspect. Because it's damn sure not his play. The Nets play with no motivation at all. And if 3-4 possessions don't go their way, they almost just quit. Vaughn yanked his starters with 3 minutes left in a game that wasn't totally out of reach and I think that's an indication of how mad he was for that effort. If there was a game they should've gotten up for, at least for their teammate (Simmons) and playing against their ex-teammate (Harden), it was that one and they looked like they didn't care. And that's their attitude it seems. It's just another game. Embarrassing performance.

I enjoy his interviews..how he speaks, and I've watched a few of him being on podcasts..I like his story. He'll have a life after basketball on TV. but I just had to laugh at the bump on Ayton, then he's just looking around for all the smoke for whoever wants to retaliate.
But it was a bad effort. Before the game on Chucks parlay's he picked KD over 30 points, and Kenny was like na, this should be a blowout he won't play the 4th..and they just got out hustled. They may lead the league as a team in blocks..mostly KD and Claxton..but they need a big. I mean a Howard, Aldridge, Boogie, Thompson, body type would be a big plus. Kyrie just wants to go one on one and display his dribbling. & KD just wants to do the same and get's to his spots and shoot over whoever is contesting. Nets have too many perimeter players, alot of jump shots/3's.
and man..PJ Tucker will end up being a waste of a contract. Wouldnt have given him 3 years.

He basically just stands in the corners and waits for the 3..always has been. But he took somebody off the dribble last night and actually had like a 5 foot "floater/layup" in the lane last night and it was just so ugly, he missed it bad. and he was just so much shorter than KD and looked more like a liability. Then you bring in Thybulle who sucks offensively too. But their roster is all jacked up right now. And still beat the Nets.

Agreed. On the surface, no brainer that they should do it. I've been as large a proponent as anyone of the Lakers not wasting whatever window they have left with Lebron/AD by clinging to cap space and future picks. Given their mentality towards this season and their valuation of those long term assets, they won't. Of course, to your point, that could change closer to the trade deadline.

Yup. I bashed that contract from the get-go. Not just because how limited he is as a player at this stage being undersized and limited in actual skill but because the guy is freakin' old.

Over the Pacers past three games, Tyrese Haliburton is averaging: 13.3 assists and 0.0 (ZERO) turnovers.
Haliburton has dished out 48 dimes since he last committed a turnover.
He's also averaging 20.0 points, 6.0 rebounds, 2.3 steals and 2.3 made three-pointers.
Most assists this season:
1. Tyrese Haliburton: 225 2. Trae Young: 188 3. Luka Doncic: 151 4. Nikola Jokic: 149 5. Marcus Smart: 143
The gap between Haliburton (1st) and Luka (3rd) is as wide as the gap between Luka and TJ McConnell (who ranks 60th in total assists).
Haliburton is the first player in NBA history with 40+ assists and zero turnovers in a three-game span

Heck, the Morons actually had Bol Bol on their team last year too for a few weeks. Never played him. They were the ones who sent him to Orlando in a salary dump.
Not that the 2022 EC Champs and currently 17-4 Morons are ruing what could have been with Bol Bol BUT given how injury prone Robert Williams has been, imagine having Bol Bol as a backup.

damn, didn't even know that.
I guess I'm all in on Bol Bol since I got him off waivers in our Dynasty league. But my guy actually brings the ball up, pull up 3's blocking shots. I mean I dont see how he can't be KD-light and Baby Greek Freak.
and No chance Ime is back with the C's

I saw one highlight where he grabbed a rebound, dribbled the entire court and then just dunked it on the other end and was like holy crap that was amazing.
I have him in my longstanding league with college friends. It's a 14 team league, so depth is key. Especially since we get 80 moves for the entire season. 80! Imagine if we had that in our league where literally we have 7 already over 20 moves.
Currently 4th with a 43-28-1 record. So glad Scottie Barnes is finally back.

Lakers have won 6 of their last 8.
They've climbed past the Rockets and Spurs to be 3rd worst in the West and just 3 games out of being the 6th seed and avoiding the playoff tourney altogether.
Title contenders baby!
BTW
San Antonio has lost 9 in a row to fall to 6-16 Orlando has lost 6 in a row to fall to 5-17 The Rockets and Pistons suck and are the worst in their respective conferences
The tank is strong
