I’d do it if we keep 1 of D’Lo or Reaves
No thanks
I’d rather have Austin over Murray so
Reaves + Rui for Murray and Capela makes us better
Ham for Snyder instead
I wouldn’t mind sending both, but I want Trae in return not Murray.
I’d do this. Murray would be a lock starter with bron and AD.
Get D’Lo to run the second unit or trade for another starter from the nets.
Nope, if you’re going to trade Reaves, wait until the summer so you can attach multiple picks and get Trae or DMitch. Actual superstars that can stay on this team for the long term
No and no.
No thanks.
Rui and Vincent fine.
Lmao
How about no.

Throw in Snyder for Ham since they wanna get greedy
We gotta get over the Reaves love affair around here. If trading him makes the team better then I’m all for it.
I would literally stop watching basketball if we made this move.
Austin is on a better contract and much better than Murray as a glue guy to a championship team.
Not only that, Murray struggled mightily getting to the rim. Go look at his eFG% on drives to the rim. He’s in the top 10 with guys like Fred Van Vleet.
When his jumper is not on fire, he doesn’t do much else offensively which literally makes him a DLo clone.
Sure defensively he might be better and he is slightly more athletic…but nah man. Nah.
A lot of reporting this time of year doesn’t really mean much. Hawks want as much they can get, suitors want to give as little as possible, they meet somewhere in the middle. This stuff is all posturing
But Ham lovers would trade anyone for anyone
Immediately no
Naw that’s the Trae Young package
I’m in. Hopefully we get back Bey maybe, Murray and Bey for Rui and Reaves plus a pick is a huge win
Why would Hawks want Reaves with Trae it makes no sense
Fuck that noise.
Westbrook lite.. we good
NOPE
Not even with a fishing pole.
Isn’t this the guy that got suspended from a playoff game for trying to punk a ref?
The Spurs gave up on him and it’s looking like ATL is trying to do the same. Stay far away.
Lavine it is
If Dejounte could shoot or play off ball then sure. You get Reaves and Rui. We get Dejounte and Capela. But he can’t.
Murray is on a pretty team friendly contract. With that being said, no thank you
Lol what the fuck
Lmao they’re drunk.
Throwing Austin’s name for clicks and bait man
I’d rather keep both and get a new coach that will give them more minutes.
No.
Smoking crack lmao
I swear to everything purple and gold I’ll find rob and throw a fucking egg at him if he sends Reaves ANYWHERE
Think it goes without saying that this isn’t just Reaves/Rui for Murray, financially it has to bring back someone else like a Capela/Hunter. Idk what the Hawks are doing tbh as anything we give them is a lateral move. But….
Hawks: Reaves/Rui/JHS and 1st/swaps
Lakers: Murray/Capela/Bey
Hawks would be getting more tradable contracts, get off Murray’s long term deal and avoid having to pay Bey this summer as a restricted free agent. Think that offer could get Murray and Capela or Hunter but Bey might be too much.
if this happens, watch Rui turn into a 20-10 player in less then a month. How is this guy, who can shoot, drive, (even has a soft fade-away), all in a big strong body, not a FOCAL point of our offense. Yes i watch the games, and I know he has that big of potential. This FO is great at losing great players, the few we can find.
Not worth
Nope
Any trade that doesn’t get rid of Ham first is no go.
We can probably trade for tyus Jones and Gafford or Javon carter and Drummond for a way cheaper price and address our pg and backup center needs for cheaper. Only difference is Javon is a defensive specialist 3nD guard and tyus is a less offensively potent Dlo, but more consistent, atleast in the regular season
Salary wise, it doesn’t make sense. Those Reaves and Rui combine to make 27.7 million. Murray is currently making 18.2 million before his extension kicks in next season.
Honestly I’d go for either Reaves or Rui, but not both. Murray is a very nice two way player and I think better than Reaves and Rui individually, but he’s not worth losing both.
DM doesn’t help the Lakers get to the second round, let alone escape the 1st round. Lakers need depth and better shooting.
