Pitch Paul George.
Worst case they can just run it back with the same roster from last year.
Fultz was a highly rated prospect, #1 pick after all and gave them nothing.

If it’s the lakers in a sign and trade what do they give to Cleveland or possibly to another team if it’s a three team trade

I agree on Embiid.
Last I heard, Lavine’s dad does all the heavy lifting in his development. But it is interesting to see Hanlen doesn’t have anyone other than Beal shooting league average from 3 and he already came with a stroke.
Hmmm

Uh a bigger way of doing that would be to just opt out

My point was that it’s not the Lakers lol

Why would the lakers entertain a sign and trade for lebron when they could just outright sign him given that they have the requisite cap space to sign lebron and another max player?
The only sign and trade the lakers are thinking about would have to be involving Julius Randle.

I can see em either going straight after PG or offering a sign and trade. Or going after Leonard if he’s still available.
I personally don’t mind if we stay patient and focus on the development of Our core, our #10 and see a healthy Fultz get his shine. Then surround the core with shooters and defenders. We should also expect Bolden to come over. I feel like he will be a huge asset for us.
Our main focus now should be:
- The draft
- Sign competent, honest GM
- Go after Bron

Lol I didn’t see your post I was just wondering what they’d have to give up in this scenario
Feel like he wouldn’t be telling them like this if he wasn’t trying to get a sign and trade worked out

Don’t know, just wondering why Lebby would inform them by tomorrow

His only good moves were the deadline trades during the 2015 season.
Outside of that he was kinda trash.

Am I the only one that laughs uncontrollably when you call him Lebby?
LOL! I may start using that...

I'm guessing so they can either a.) Line up sign and trades or b) make appropriate trades for people like love before the draft

Yes. I think Beal put him on the map

He worked in the NBA prior to being employed by the cavs.
He had a major part in building those 7 seconds or less Suns teams...

Embiid, Bradley Beal, Lavine and Oubre all made jumps in their games after working with Hanlen. Jayson Tatum worked with Hanlen all summer it seemed leading up to and then a little after the draft. He seemed to be on a whole different level than what we saw from him in college. All of his clients go out of their way to shout him out and promote him.
Will you not respect him unless he gets a trash client and turns them into a star?

He also drafted Anthony Bennett , Dion Waiters, and Tristan Thompson with top 4 picks lol

He doesn’t need to sign and trade to go LA.
I think y’all know if he goes to Houston that means it’s over for GSW
which is why y’all want him in LA so bad

I was speaking about Drew mostly in reference to what his peers in his field say about him, they know better than you and I.
Also, calm down a bit. What's with the rhetorical question? Neither of us have a stake in this Drew Hanlen thing, so lets keep it civil, yeah?
None of his guys have shown significant statistical leaps from season to season after working with him (if I am mistaken, show me how you are able to DIRECTLY and DIFINITIVELY tie working with drew directly to said leaps in stats).
We can't quantify what coaches get credit for what skills players develop, so we're left to go off of his instagram and twitter videos, which are lacking.
He doesn't put guys in real game situations. Too many dribble combos that don't directly translate to game situations.
Tatum is the first guy mentioned in this thread about Hanlen that I will say may be able to credit some of his success to working with Drew. So I'll give you Tatum just for the sake of argument.
I was looking for 5 names though. I refuted the ones you listed already.

I never understood why guys work with skill trainers who have a large clientele.
You would think they would want their skill trainer to be with them through out the season.
