D'Angelo Russell

[bmac934]

What would you guys offer for D'Angelo Russell?  Rumors have it that LAL would part with him for pick 12 or earlier.  I doubt that LAL would pull the trigger on this deal but the fact that its rumored leaves me to believe LAL is not very high on him and it wouldnt take a lot to pull off a deal.  Im assuming just a high pick wouldn't do it but I'm going to assume between Rozier/Zizic and filler 1st round picks we can make a deal work so the below opportunities would be the trades foundation.

- I would move back from 3 to 5/10 & trade 10 
- Trade AB to DET for KCP & 12th / Trade KCP to PHI for Okafor & future picks / Then Trade 12 & Future Picks to LAL (I'd even trade AB to the wolves for the 7th then flip the 7th for Russell - but I doubt MIN makes this move)

KCP can't be traded as he is a free agent.  And I don't know why Detroit would rather have Bradley than Russell anyway.

The Kings trade would work, but again, the Kings could just do that and keep 5.

KCP is restricted, so obviously DET can match any offer.  RFA (or when teams don't have cap space for superstars) is where sign and trades can come into play.  But I'm not gonna lie, I did not check KCP's contract.  The Kings apparently really like De'Arron Fox and already have Buddy Hield (kind of similar to Russell - who they also really like).  I also assumed just 10 wouldnt get it done, so does SAC have young players and future late 1sts to offer alongside?  (I don't believe so)

First off I see you have joined the club of Sacramento definitely would trade 5 & 10 for #3. Where do all you people come up- with that??? I have read that they have no interest in trading two picks to move up. Therefore that voids your idea.

Do you seriously think it's a given that Sacramento (who needs to rebuild) would arbitrarily trade two lottery picks for 1?

I would not touch Russell. Much as I dislike Nick Young, that stunt he pulled displayed tremendous immaturity.  Don't want a guy like that in the Celtics locker room.

Where do I come up with this??? It was speculated..... The MIN idea and DET idea was also off of speculation.  My idea's were a statement that I would part with AB or Crowder to land assets to get him, or I would mortgage a high draft pick to move back and get him (SAC and PHO rumored to want to move up in the draft).  And no I haven't joined any club and don't think its a given that SAC would do that?  I simply said I would do it. 
BUT If SAC is high enough on Fox its not unrealistic.  So why don't you get off your high horse over their buddy.  The first sentence was "What would you guys offer for D'Angelo Russell", not "I have fullproof ideas for D'Angelo Russell".
Also, in my personal opinion I see their as being a top 8 in this draft & the 10th pick not being THAT valuable.
