Each year we do a Locked on NBA mock draft where the host of each show makes a pick and explains their thinking. We are allowed to make trades which leads to some interesting discussion. I don't think ESPN will write any story on me leaking the discussions and offers.

The starting offers

Lakers: Ingram, Kuz, No.4 pick this year and picks in 2021 and ’23 (when at least LeBron is gone).

Celtics: Smart, Tatum, Robert Williams, 14th pick & Memphis pick

Knicks: "So what's your interest in the 3rd pick and RJ Barrett? I'm obviously looking to deal for AD here. The Knicks also have Dallas' 2021 and 2023 (top 10 protected) 1sts, all of their own 1sts, Mitchell Robinson, Kevin Knox, Dennis Smith Jr., Frank Ntilikina, Damyean Dotson, Allonzo Trier, and more available. Definitely think I can make a good offer for you to pair Zion up with his college teammate and get this rebuild rocking in NO."

Portland (wildcard!): CJ McCollum, Zach Collins, Anfernee Simons, Unprotected 2019 1st round pick (No. 25), Top 3 protected 2022 1st round pick (Top 3 protected in 2023, unprotected in 2024)

Clippers: "I think the most realistic package *this* FO would offer is Shai, Shamet, Gallo, 2021 unprotected Miami pick, and the 2020 Philly pick. And maybe Jerome Robinson thrown in."

Denver wasn't interested and I haven't heard from any one else so far.

What I think is interesting about this is these guys are the experts of their teams. Not New Orleans people projecting onto other teams. What do you all think?

Actually pretty tough between the Celtics, Clippers and Knicks for me.

I know people are going to jump on Portland offering CJ and that’s certainly interesting.

I think I’d prefer the mix of young players and possibly high picks for this team. I can understand Griffin wanting to pounce on CJ. He’s easily the best player any of the teams are offering.

This is all assuming he doesn't opt in?

Counter offers:

Lakers: Add Ball, Hart, and every pick in either a swap or unprotected for the next decade (this is not a serious trade. I don’t want what the Lakers are selling)

Celtics: I’m going to need your other two firsts this year and pick swap next year.

Knick: actually make me an offer instead of listing all your assets.

Clippers: going to need Harrell and some more of your own picks included.

I’d also attempt to get all of them to take Hill or get a 3rd team involved to take him. Doubt anyone will.

That Portland package is tempting. I'd put the Clippers near the top of they included Trez.

No Nets offer Jake?

I really would love to get the second pick and pieces. Any chance of us getting that.

Don’t see it. Major Knicks assets would have to go to Memphis for them to switch 2 and 3.

If a team takes Solo, wouldn’t that make teams dial down their offers for AD? They’d be doing us a favor by taking the second worst contract in NBA history. (Asik being the WORST contract ). I wouldn’t want to give up as much for AD if Solo was handcuffed.

That Portland deal is McCollum for AD, in my eyes. Thats a big no for me.

Collins has role player potential. Simons has barely played in the league and those picks are a whole lot of nothing if AD and Dame are teamed up.

Lakers: I don’t want any of your players. Give me your 2019 4th pick, Myles Turner, Phoenix top 3 protected 2020 pick, your 2021 unprotected and 2023 unprotected pick.

Celtics:
I want Tatum and the Memphis pick and 1 of your 3 firsts this year, and then find a way to get me another good player like Beal or Turner.

Knicks: I want DSJ, Knox, Robinson, 3rd pick, 2021 knicks pick, and both Dallas picks.

Portland: done deal if Boston or NYK can’t come through with all I want. Would love to have Jrue and McCollum.

Clips: I don’t care for what you have to offer.

I straight up tell Western Conf teams I'm not trading him to the West unless you give me everything I want. No haggling, no discount.
Lakers: Ball (to trade for top 8 pick in this draft), Ingram, Kuzma, Hart, #4, multiple future 1sts
Clippers: SGA, Shamet, Galo, Lou Williams , 2021 Miami pick, Philly pick. 2 LAC 1sts. Then package Lou and Philly pick to another team for assets
Portland doesn't have near enough assets

Boston pretty easily over Knicks and Clippers.

FWIW, that is more than NYK can offer if they plan on retaining enough cap room for KD and another max player.

Shocker. I think that Celtics offer is not there. The Clippers and maybe Knicks challenge that offer. Brown and at least one other 1st needs to be added.
