We need some more scoring off the bench. As soon as Kyrie goes out, our offense goes out the window. Him and Morris would be a great tandem off the bench.

We don't have enough assets for him. I doubt they'd want anything less than Tatum or brown

There is NO WAY they could possibly expect Tatum or Brown for a half season rental of an impending free agent. That is ludicrous. They can get Nader and a 2nd or maybe a Boston 1st.

Assuming a BOS 1st isn't enough to acquire him, I hope he signs an extension with LAC and leads them into the playoffs next year!

Yeah, I'd love Lou Williams on this team.  He's exactly what we need, a legit threat to score the ball at will as a 6th man.

But I don't think the Clippers are going to entertain trade offers for him, as he's leading the charge towards a possible playoff berth for them.  It'd probably require an overpay to get them to the table.

As others have mentioned, he has an expiring contract, so while that makes him eligible to be traded for with the DPE, I'm not sure it makes sense to give up the assets the Clippers would want.

I don’t think clippers will trade him unless they lose chances to get into the playoffs or package in too good.

I can’t see them moving Williams. They have a legit chance to make the playoffs with Blake playing well, and key players coming back.

Really? You must have missed all of the late game heroics that Rozier seems to have regularly. He can be bad in some games but he definitely steps up to the plate and never has lack of confidence. Keep Rozier.

yeah i'd trade it all for consistency and not need heroics. that's why Avery Bradley isn't here anymore.

I disagree with you on Rozier but that's okay. Now what do you mean about Bradley?

?? During his time as a starter Bradley's output was far more consistent than Rozier's. If TRoz can develop into an AB level player then he's a definite keeper
