The Lakers are a team with a big three lineup of James, Davis and Westbrook, but the problem now is that the Lakers seem to be unable to play well enough. So what room do the Lakers have to change their lineup? The advice given by the US media Brett Siegel is that the Lakers can try to promote a deal with the Pistons involving Jeramie Grant:
The Lakers got: Jeramie Grant, Rodney McGrud
Pistons get: Taren Horton Tucker, Kendrick Nunn, Wayne Ellington
This is a deal involving the best players in the Pistons' squad, of course, whether such a deal can be smoothly promoted depends on whether the Lakers can send chips that interest the Pistons. In this deal, the Lakers sending tucker and Nunn two young players should be enough to interest the Pistons, after all, the Pistons are a team that needs to fully enter the reconstruction phase.
Compared to starter Cade Cunningham, Gerald Grant is currently the best player in the Pistons' squad, averaging 22.3 points, 4.6 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 42.9 percent shooting per game last season. You know, Grant's excellent performance on both offensive and defensive ends makes him an ideal reinforcement for this Lakers team.
Because James still suffers from injury problems, and the team chemistry seems to have problems, because of this, the Lakers need a player like Grant who can contribute to the team at both ends of the attack and defense.
However, the biggest question in this deal is whether the Lakers will be willing to sacrifice a young player like Horton Tucker, because after the comeback, Tucker can indeed play a surprise performance. But let's be honest, if the Lakers want to better impact the championship trophy, they do need players like Grant more than Horton Tucker in the growth stages of their careers.
