I guess I just don't really view Svi as much of an asset. Hart, Ingram, Kuzma, Ball, even Zubac, those guys are assets to me. Maybe throw Mo Wagner in there too. The Lakers are desperate for shooting and Svi hasn't been able to crack the rotation. It's certainly a win now move, but I don't see it as the kind of win now move that mortgages the future. Svi isn't much of an asset right now, and if you hold onto him you risk the chance that he doesn't develop well and drops in value even more.
Bullock won't make a difference in terms of them winning a title since Golden State is in the West, but it's the kind of move that could lead to them making some noise in the playoffs. Best case scenario, they make it to the WCF. I could see Bullock being a key factor in that happening. We all know what LeBron can do in the playoffs when surrounded by shooters. That might price the Lakers out of keeping him, but a good playoff run could make the Lakers a more appealing destination for a star free agent.
