TDL Archived: The 2nd Rnd Pick Yankee Swap

[DanSchwartzgan]

I like Brooklyn...but not a part of the KD trade.  How about a part of the Kyrie trade?   Pacers get Westbrook plus two first round picks.    They can go full speed into the lottery tanking and let their youngsters get a ton of minutes.   The question is would they eat the Westbrook contract?  Would Lakers offer two future picks?  Brooklyn gets Turner, Lakers get Irving.

I do like that.  I'd want to keep Westbrook away from the kids and cutting him would be super expensive.  So, the package would need to be substantial.
