Besides it being a terrible return for the Rapters, the notion that you'd do a complete tear down of the best regular season team in the East is not based in reality.  Just because they play like crap against Lebron doesn't mean they would have against us. 

Moving Lowry and Ibaka, if that's possible, makes sense to try to reformulate the team.  Moving Derozan for anything less than a star level return doesn't.  He's in his prime, playing at the top of his game and has 3 years left on a reasonable contract.

Don't see why Toronto or Minny would do this. Not a great idea for the Lakers to give up 2019 and 2021 picks if they're unprotected either depending on what they do in FA.

Congrats.

You just came up with the first three way trade proposal in which all three teams get worse.

If the Raptors did that trade, then their entire FO should be fired on the spot.
