Yikes! I know this would never happen between these 2 teams but be great for us, not them ..Lakers & LeBron not happy with Kuzman & Harrell, so:

Celtics get Kyle Kuzman, Montrezl Harrell, K. Caldwell-Pope

Lakers get Tristan Thompson, Marcus Smart, Grant Williams, & Carson Edwards

Celtics
Harrell
Tatum
Brown
Pope
Walker

Williams
Kuzman
Parker
Romeo
Nesmith
Pritchard
Our 1st pick
C/PF-Horford, Baynes, Noel, Theis, Morris,
SF/SG- Tatum, Brown, Hayward, Smart, Semi, Clark
PG- Irving, Rozier, Larkin

Lebron and Davis should just demand a trade to the Celtics.

Davis
Tatum
Lebron
Brown

Fill out the roster with free agents.

Lol.

Kuzma's grossly overrated.  Take Smart out of the deal and it might be a starting point of a deal

I've soured on Montrez Harrell after his struggles in Laker land and previously in the playoffs for the Clippers the year before. I thought his added offensive punch as an undersized center was more valuable relative to his undersized limited defense at center than it actually was. I like him somewhat but not as a high value guy (role player). More as a midlevel bench player.

I like Kuzma but I am not giving up someone as valuable as Smart for him. Kuzma is another midlevel bench player who has the potential to be a high end bench scorer. That is not enough to justify giving up Smart.

Lol.

That team wins multiple championships.

And it will be because of Tatum and Davis, not LeBron and Davis.  ;D

No man, we should never trade with Lakers. Never trade with your biggest rival. You might help them win another ring...

Our trades with them have worked out pretty well:

Sure thing. But i would still not risk helping them win a ring while they have LJ and AD on their team. Is some other circumstances maybe...

Better deal for the Lakers, I think. In particular Trez and Kuz are not likely to bolster Boston's team defense, while losing TT, Grant, and especially Smart would endanger it. I could go on about shot-creation, which none of those Lakers do much of, but that's enough; not going to happen, nothing like that is going to happen.

'I was proud of Marcus Smart. He did a great job of keeping us together. He might not get credit for this game, but the pace that he played at, and his playcalling, some of the plays that he called were great. We obviously have to rely on him, so I’m definitely looking forward to Marcus leading this team in that role.' - Jaylen Brown, January 2021
