Today, ESPN reporter Brian Windhors revealed the Lakers' trading operations:
"They've sent away LaJan Rondo, and based on what I know inside, with LeBron (James) starting to play the no.5 spot, and eventually Anthony Davis coming back, the Lakers are looking to trade DeAndre Jordan.
In recent years, the decline in the state of Jordan Jr. is very obvious, last season in the Nets when Jordan Jr. has been abandoned, but the Lakers think they can use Little Jordan well, the result is obvious, Little Jordan can hardly support the Lakers' inner line, can not prevent opponents from scoring the ball! After Davis was injured, the Lakers' inside line was full of holes! In his current state, he is no longer able to gain a foothold in the league.
"The Lakers want to get rid of him completely so they can free up another roster spot. Rondo's deal looks like it's meant to fill the void for Stanley Johnson, but they may be looking for another player or two in the buyout market. They're trying to figure out how to do that. Brian Windhors said.
