Hello everyone, today we come to talk about a transaction plan reported by the US media: 4 for 1, lakers trading Turner group four giants? US media: Tucker may be traded to the Pacers as the core.
The Lakers beat the Thunder in yesterday's game, Davis was absent and Vogel put James in the No. 5 spot in the small lineup arrangement. The reason why James can lead the team to win big and has very good personal data is that he has the ability to shoot himself, and he can also assist the shooter to hit 3 points. However, the Thunder's defensive level is average, and the overall height of the lineup is not high, and James is very dominant. Once the Lakers meet a team with a high degree of interior, James will be more uncomfortable playing the No. 5 position. For the Lakers, when Davis can play, the Lakers are more passive in playing position battles, because Davis's three-point shooting level is average, and playing the No. 5 position cannot open up offensive space for James and Westbrook, which is easy for opponents to find a way to defend the Lakers.
In order to improve the fit of the lineup, the Pacers broke the news with the team reporter that the Lakers have had a trade discussion with the Pacers, and the Lakers hope to trade Turner. The US media gave the Lakers a plan to trade Turner, and the Lakers sent Tucker Jr., Nunn, Ellington and a first-round pick to get Turner from the Pacers. US media pointed out that the Lakers can form a big four through this transaction, the compatibility of the starting lineup is improved, Turner is more suitable for pairing with Davis, and it is more likely to impact the championship this season. The US media analyzed the deal from the perspective of the Lakers:
Turner has averaged 29.4 minutes per game this season and can efficiently cut the 13.1 points and 7.4 rebounds. In addition, Turner ranked first in the league with an average of 2.7 blocks per game. Turner, who shoots 39.8 percent from three-point range, has gradually transformed into a space center. As can be seen from the above description, Turner's technical characteristics are very suitable for the Lakers. If he can join the Lakers, he can serve as the Lakers' starting center, Davis plays the No. 4 position, and James can return to the No. 3 position.
Turner's projection ability is good, which can open up space for James and Westbrook to break through. In addition, on the defensive end, the twin-tower lineup of Turner and Davis can make the Lakers' interior line a no-fly zone. The Lakers can pose the starting combination of Westbrook, Bradley, James, Davis and Turner, and the overall height of the lineup is improved, and the offensive and defensive level can be enhanced.
Previously, the media broke the news that the Pacers would choose to rebuild, and Turner and Sabonis Jr. could be traded. The US media pointed out that Tucker Jr. is young and talented, and the Pacers defender line is just missing a young core defender. With the Pacers' slight development, Tucker Jr. is expected to become an All-Star in the future.
