Can they take Murphy instead?

Would you do that if you were them?

That's the link Broussard tweeted last night.

So it was it was LakersNation who first reported. Not Chris Broussard. Well, this is interesting.

Hell I wasn't even paying attention to that. Lol I just read the tweet and saw the report about Kahn wanting Hill for Beasly.

This would be a terrible trade! Idk why we keep adding more small forwards to our team instead of improving our gaurd play... Having 4 or 5 small forwards is not going to win us anything if we don't have a legitimate back up big men who can rebound and defend

[Windu]

wanna keep hill somehow

Are you slow. Do you not see how horrible our bench is. By getting Beasly we get a 6'10 big man that can score and rebound and create for himself. How is that a bad thing? He would be our 23 yr old version of LO. I say get Beasly. If it means giving up Hill I'm sorry you have to do it.

[Draztik]

I'd do it, but we'd need to pick up a backup big that can hustle, board & play d

And how do you expect to get that? Hill gave us energy but it will never be close to Beasly's production. You have to give in order to get. Name a solid back up SG we can get?

And why the [expletive] would mcroberts play over Beasly. Yea you are definitely on drugs.

[tsidebotham]

Hill is a free agent. why wouldn't Min. just pursue him hard in free agency? they don't need to give up Beezee for him. they could pick him up in FA and use beezee to pick up another piece... it doesn't seem to make sense.

You really need to get your head out of Beasleys ass... This is the same player the heat just gave up for NOTHING and was LAZY AF when he was with them... And I could see that same lazy attitude could resurface with us since we have lazy players already.... And we could get Alonzo Gee, Courntey Lee, Rudy Fernandez, or C.J. Miles as SOLID back up SG for CHEAP .... And we should keep players who gives us energy off the bench and play defense and rebound that come for a good price

Okay if MWP and Gasol are on the bench McRoberts would be THE ONLY big man we would have left if we were to trade away Jordan hill and Most likely we will not be resigning Troy Murphy.... I don't know if your retarded or if you don't know the Lakers roster that well but anybody with common sense would know that would happen... We would have too many small forwards with no back up gaurds or Big men smh but I guess Beasley is our savior now?

I really don't know how I feel bout this...

[thrilla86]

Am I the only one who thinks everyone here (including me as well) is overrating Hill just a little???

Beasley would be a huge scoring threat, and honestly his off the court issues aren't any better or worse than Hill...

I believe the logic would be we could offer him the most since we have his Bird rights, but I could be wrong.

No Beasly is a scoring threat which hill is not dont get me wrong hill is awesome but can he put up 20 points given the minutes off the bench. Idk about that. For one Beasly is 6'10 so he can play the 4 that's what I was saying. And 2 Miami gave up Beasly because they were making room for Bosh so your point is irrelevant. When given starter minutes Bealsy averaged 19 points a game with 5 to 6 Rebs. No one on our team averaged 19 a game or better but Kobe? So again I ask you what's so bad about Beasly? Did anyone on our bench even get remotely close to that. Ummmmm no.

Hill is the hustle player that this team needs badly he picks up the slack when our star players get lazy on the boards and defense.... We have Kobe, Sessions, Pau,(maybe), and Bynum for scoring threats ... All we need is better gaurd play coming off the bench.... How many times this season have we had a lead and as soon as Brown puts Blake in at PG or SG he gets LIT UP! And doesn't score sometimes

I really don't think you understand that we need a solid TEAM to win not just one player coming off the bench..... Who will play center when Bynum and Gasol are on the bench or our we going to play them 38 minutes a game? And what are we going to do when Beasley gets lazy on defense and isn't hitting his shots? What are we going to do when Blake is still playing SG getting lit up by the reserve SG? It's more than just scoring points its about defense and solid back ups at all the positions to win it all

Bynum plays lazy every other game and we still keeping him around for some odd reason. Yes we need solid back ups for all positions but how many of them are available. We still need a starting PG because I feel Sessions is a good back up not starter. We need to secure Deron Beasly and one more solid player and we will be fine.
