No, they would not.
How about just Russell?
My impression is that they would trade Randle before Russell.
Agreed, but I would not give up our pick for him. Rusell, in the other hand, has Star potential, and would pair very well with Booker I think.

Actually, I don't know too much about Russell's game. I haven't really been following him this year.

I wouldn't enter a competition about it, but the little I have seen, he is a scorer/playmaker, in a way closer to what we have asked out of Bledsoe/AASE. Well, a lot of people are, but he could grow up along Booker, TJ and Len

I'm not sure a top 3 protected pick is all that valuable this year. I'm a little worried about picking 4th-6th. I don't really like any of the prospects listed there. Draft is still a long ways away and I'm no expert, but getting Russell and Randle for Markieff, Goodwin, and an ok prospect would be a steal.

All three contracts suck.

The Spurs are dismantling the Mavericks 62-26 at halftime.
On the road. Without Duncan or Ginobili.

This is such a homer discussion. There's no way the Lakers would trade those two for Archie our pick and trash. They may not even take that for one of them let alone both. That is laughable!

Haha, in all seriousness though, I think the Lakers are in decent spot in regards to their pick. A top 3 spot gets them a great shot at a star(Ingram, Simmons) If they land 4th or 5th they give up a pick that's just ok and don't have to worry about losing any more picks.

LAL doesn't do it I think, and I'd rather keep the pick and if don't land Simmons or Ingram, take Dunn if possible.
Wizards gets: Teletovic (maybe the Cleveland pick if this comes to that, not sure if it's worth it)
Phoenix gets: Otto Porter
This is lopsided as hell. It's like if you are offered Evan Turner for Alex Len.
Nets receive Bledsoe + Knight
Phoenix gets Joe Johnson + Shane Larkin
Don't care where Knight ends up and don't think he'll get traded anyway, but if he was but my hope is he can net us positive assets beyond simple cap space. Can't see Bledsoe being taken by anyone until he proves he can play again.

Kings strongly considering firing George Karl. Well, I guess it could be worse for us, guys.
