I heard a rumor that the Lakers were thinking about this too. So stupid. Just wait for him to hit the open market and keep your draft pick from this years loaded draft. I get the Wolves want to move him now, but there's no guarantee he'll sign after this year with whoever trades for him. If I was the Lakers I wouldn't be against trading for him but there's no way I'd put a top ten pick from this draft in the deal.
Someone will overpay the shit out of Lance. But why would you guys do it if you have Bradley? lol. Unless you plan on Lance at the 3.Then even if that's the case & you trade Love for your first round pick straight up, what happens? You rent that duo out for the season, probably lose in the first round because that team still isn't strong enough & watch them both hit the market together? All while watching a guy like Julius Randle who you traded to develop into an all-star by year three?...or you could just draft Randle (hypothetically. Could be anyone), let him play with Rondo for a year, watch Love fuck over the Lakers who make the same stupid mistake you almost did & then nab Love off the market at the end of the year. Inevitably keeping Rondo if he likes that situation.

Maybe make an offer to Lance Stephenson (he's gonna get what, 8-10 mill a year?) and bam, you got a contender in the east.
I thought his whole reason for leaving minnesota was he wanted to go to the playoffs and be on a contender. Why got to the Celtics or Lakers then?
