About 2 weeks ago I asked peoples opinions on a trade: Crowder for #6 and future 1st

The overwhelming answer was no and hell no. But now with D'Angelo Russell reportedly available for a top 5 pick, would you pull on a trade around Crowder 4 Russell?

Reports also state that LAL like Buddy Hield, maybe even enough to stupidly select him 2nd(when they could squeeze assets out of us).

What about this?
Crowder/#6 (in a trade to NO for #6)
HIELD    @#3
4
D'angello Russell (shot 39% from 3 last half of year/Nick Young incident)
Brandon Ingram

No.

That trade is clearly way too lopsided.

Why are the Lakers giving up a top lottery pick for someone like Crowder?

Is the glass half-full or half-empty?

That trade would be incredible...and I am a HUGE Crowder fan. Unfortunately it isn't likely and it could be argued that LAL is giving up the two best assets in the trade (even if I disagree with Crowder).

Seems far fetched and I do like Crowder but yes I would do that deal.

Every day there is a new thread of ridiculous evaluations of IT4 and Crowder's value. Yesterday or the day before people said they are worth a 3rd or they wouldn't give them up for the 3rd. Lol if you say so...

I'd hold out for LeBron.  Crowdah is a soupa-stah!

I was basing it on Crowder's potential to land us the Pelican's pick @ 6th

And if anything I underestimate the value of IT AB. Exactly 1 year ago I proposed that we draft Myles Turner(16th plus KO) and trade for Kristaps 4 IT and AB. Please just try to imagine all the hate I got on that one. I remember the few that liked it, but mostly I got hate. Now one year later.........
