So far this season, the Lakers with the Big Three lineup have not been able to play the expected overall performance, and there is no doubt that the Lakers are the team that needs to make a move before the trade deadline. But the problem is that the Lakers are unlikely to push for a deal involving Russell Westbrook, and the best value chip in the team's current squad is basically Tarren Horton Tucker.
Recently, there has been a lot of news that the Lakers will put Horton Tucker on the shelves, so which players should the Lakers send Tucker out of the case? US media Brett Siegel gave the following 3 trading targets advice:
3. Jeramie Grant, Pistons
2. Eric Gordon, Rockets
1. Miles Turner, Pacers
Among the above players, Grant and Turner are both players who have been exposed to be indeed the Lakers' hope to get, of course, Eric Gordon will also be the Lakers' more ideal reinforcement candidates in the backcourt.
First of all, Grant has played a very top offensive and defensive performance during his time with the Pistons, he can average 22.3 points, 4.6 rebounds and 42.9% shooting per game, although Grant is still in the rehabilitation stage of thumb surgery, but he is expected to return before the end of January, and his ability to play will not be limited in any way. Of course, Gellant can still attract the attention of many teams, and the Lakers definitely need to send more assets to get Grant.
As for Eric Gordon's average of 14.9 points, 3.3 assists, 50.5% shooting and 45.5% three-point shooting so far this season, coupled with Gordon's solid play on the defensive end, he is undoubtedly the lakers' more ideal reinforcement candidate.
Finally, there is a center player like Miles Turner, the best dilemma of the current Lakers rotation system is that there is no player who can help the team do a good job of defending and open up space, and Turner has averaged 2.8 blocks per game so far this season is the data that can lead the league, in addition to the ability to pull space.
Truth be told, if the Lakers can't send Westbrook away, getting players like Turner could be the key to unlocking the real strength of the Big Three.
