I disagree honestly.

Gafford is quite literally the picture perfect center to pair next to Luka. The lakers getting him transforms that team into a heavy contender. 

While I’d like their 2031 FRP (and we deserve it after what’s happened), I don’t think Vincent or Knecht are worth anything what Gafford brings. So it’d essentially be a Gafford for a 2031 FRP which is 6 years from now. 

If we are trading Gafford, I’d demand Reaves be apart of that deal. Mostly because even if Reaves doesn’t fit here he’d be a good trade chip.

I'd probably do Reaves without the FRP, but realistically, we should already own that pick.  Reaves would probably be a non-starter for the Lakers and I'm not expecting them to let us rob them like they did with us.  I'd also be fine with your demand and telling them to pound sand when they refute/counter the offer.
