I'd call the Pels bluff on this. There's no crazy need to get AD before the deadline. Sure, it'd be nice to have him *right now*, but he will inevitably land in L.A.

Giving up Zo, Zu, Kuz & BI (and picks) is just too much capital to trade. With Kawhi, it wasn't really sure where he wanted to go. AD isn't hinting - he's screaming that he's going to L.A. No team is going to give the House for AD when they know where he'll be in a little over a year - and neither should the Lakers.
