Green hill to the Lakers, Turner to the Warriors, Willow to the Pacers

And whether this deal will be concluded in the future, worthy of everyone's expectation

By La holePublished 3 years ago 4 min read

Recently the Golden State Warriors were at the forefront of public opinion because of the incident in which Green punched Poole. There is no doubt that it is obviously difficult to reconcile the team for such a thing to happen and also be exposed by the media. Just today, Green said in an interview with the media that he has apologized to the team, Poole and Poole's parents. Although the Warriors have initially understood Green, Poole did not take a stand. The American media believes that the relationship between Green and Poole has been difficult to repair, and it is also difficult to stay in Golden State Warriors at the same time. As Atlanta Hawks star Tran Young said, Green did so because he wants to play for the Los Angeles Lakers now.

A potential three-way trade proposed by NBA's famous analyst Bill Simmons today is being rumored and unanimously approved by American fans. Among the potential trade proposals are: Los Angeles Lakers get Raymond Green, Buddy Yield; Golden State Warriors get: Myles Turner, 2026 first-round draft pick from the Pacers; Indiana Pacers get: West brook, 2027, 2029 first-round picks from the Lakers.

The deal is surely a good offer for all three teams and helps each team to solve their troubles and achieve a win-win situation.

Los Angeles Lakers get a defensive star and an experienced 3-point shooter

The deal trades Green to the Los Angeles Lakers and Green gets the chance to play with his buddy Lebanon James. Green has a strong defensive game. Green's style of play will make him the most crucial part of Ham's system, and the defensive combination of Green and the Browns will give the Lakers the top defense in the league. Earlier, Lebanon had said he would be happy to be teammates with Green, and that his constant trash-talking on the court would keep him alert and awake.

The Lakers will also get Yield in the deal, one of the top 3-point shooters in the league, his three to quantity, to quality is never inferior to others, in the past three seasons, his three-point shooting rate ranked No. 2 for three consecutive years. despite his lack of NBA-level two-way body, but good at playing without the ball, he can still bring a greater sense of space for the Lakers system.

In this deal, the Lakers got rid of West brook's contract and sent away two first-round picks of great value, but it was still worth it. If the Lakers open the new season with their current roster, they will undoubtedly repeat last season's fiasco, and this deal will make the Lakers one of the best teams in the West. They will have an offensive and defensive rotation and two more great helpers around En Brow. Green and Yield would be a smart choice for the Lakers.

Golden State Warriors get defensive center and draft pick compensation

For the Warriors, if Green and Poole did not have a conflict incident, then the Warriors still hope to keep Green. But now that it's come to this, Green is likely to decline his player option. Whether it's for team unity or to keep the team strong, it makes the most sense for the Warriors to trade Green.

The Warriors wouldn't lose anything by trading Green for Turner and a first-round pick. Turner is an elite rim protector with some 3-point shooting and excellent mobility to move from the lane to the arc, and with Green in decline, Turner is qualified to replace him. A first-round pick from the Pacers could make a difference in a late trade for the Warriors. Granted, Green is a decorated Warrior and they don't have the experience of winning a championship without him, but now that the arrow is on the string, the Warriors have dealt with the internal conflicts of the team with this trade and gotten a younger defensive player, not a loss.

Pacers get valuable chips for their rebuild

The Pacers' intentions to rebuild in the new season are clear, as they traded away the team's veteran Brogan, with Turner and Yield next in line to be sent packing. In this deal, they got the Lakers' two future first-round picks and also West brook's expiring contract, which is obviously not a loss either.

However, the Pacers had to give away their 2026 first-round pick to lure the Warriors in order to make the deal happen, but after four years, the odds are that the Pacers are done rebuilding and become a playoff team, and giving away a less valuable pick in order to get two more valuable picks is not a bad thing for the Pacers. However, to prevent surprises, the Pacers should add the first 10 picks to this 2026 first-round pick to be protected.

All in all, this is a deal that can achieve a triple win. The Lakers get immediate power and a lot of strength; the Warriors send Green away to avoid a recurrence of the conflict between him and Poole, and get a defensive center in return; the Pacers accelerate the rebuilding process. As for Green, he goes to the team of his choice, West brook could be bought out and also rejoin a playoff team that really suits him to play, and it is worth everyone's expectation whether this deal will be reached in the future. What do you all want to say about this?
