Kings: K. Love, Barrea, J. Meeks
Lakers get: Thorton, I. Thomas, A.J. Price
Wolves: McLemore, Gasol, Jimmer Ferdette, and Kings unprotected pick.

Lakers wont do it because of cap space unless they get Love,

So if you add the Cavs you can make a 4 team trade like this

kevin mchale is that you?

considering Ibaka's contract, i dont think that OKC would even trade Ibaka for Love straight up, Ibaka is 24yo he is improving every single year, and i dont think Love would get his touches and shots next to Westbrook and KD, btw. Ibaka is .340 3pt shooter so adjust his numbers by racking up 6.4 3PTAs per game and you got your 20+ppg player anyway :-D

Love to Miami for LeBron, Dwade, Bosh and two first round picks. Get real

Only trade I proposed that is "get real" worthy is Golden State just because they have a really good core already; can try to win without making a huge splash. The OKC and CHI trade ideas are pretty well-structured, though. Would like to hear your ideas, if you can put any together.

So you didn't like my Miami idea? Wasn't ripping you Camden, just the whole concept of trades that don't take into consideration what the other team wants. Take OKC. I don't think they'd do it, maybe I'm wrong, but Love will get Max money, and they are already paying two players max money. They may value what Ibaka does for them more than what they figure Love could do for them. Just sayin

I'd be more likely to agree with you had the Thunder won the Finals a couple years ago with Ibaka. Now, just look at the Thunder when Westbrook goes down. They're 7-6 this season without him and the main reason is because they don't have enough offense. The thing with Serge isn't a prolific scorer like Love is; he can't put up 20+ PPG in a season. And I'd have to think they'd like how Love can score without the ball (playing the glass). Durant would likely be all for it too considering they're pretty close on the USA teams. I think Westbrook would love to team up with his former UCLA teammate again. I know they're not FO members, but I'd have to think they have some pull being two superstar players. Just some thoughts. I think they'd be all for it.
