After betting on the creation of the super big three, the Lakers are likely to experience another failed season, which means that the team management needs to make another drastic lineup adjustment in the offseason.
To this end, the US media "Lakeshowlife" gave the Lakers a trick to strengthen, you can try to find treasures from 10 lotto teams, and each queue has a trading target, including 3 for 2 Roses, 2 for 1 Rocket Wall.
The 10 lotto teams refer to the last five teams in the East and West, who are not even qualified for the play-offs and most of them are in the process of rebuilding.
Knicks: Rose
If there is a team willing to take over Westbrook, then it must be the New York Knicks, on the one hand, Westbrook's personal style and ability to lead the team, in line with the requirements of the Big Apple City to enter the playoffs.
On the other hand, Westbrook's contract has only one season left, which can help the Knicks make room in advance to prepare for the introduction of giants.
The potential deal scenario is for the Knicks to send Fournier + Rose + Burks and get Westbrook + a future first-round pick from the Lakers.
Wizards: Ish Smith
The two teams only completed a deal with Westbrook last summer, and according to the Wizards' current needs, it will be difficult for the Lakers to complete another big deal with the Wizards.
But after the Lakers clean up Westbrook, they can try to get Ish Smith, as a tramp who is almost worth nothing, but can become a reliable substitute point guard candidate for the Lakers.
Pacers: McConnell
Similar to the purpose of trading Ish Smith, the Lakers need to reshape their own guard line after cleaning up Westbrook.
McConnell, who has solid and stable ability and experience, is naturally a good second-team brain candidate, providing the organization and projection capabilities that the Lakers need.
Since his contract is at the tens of millions level, the Lakers need to build a deal plan around Tucker, similar to Tucker + a second-round pick.
Pistons: Joseph
As another candidate for a backup point guard, Joseph's contract is more friendly, worth $5.1 million next season.
However, his organizational ability does not meet the requirements of the Lakers, but his defense and projection line, the outside shooting rate is as high as 41.7%.
Considering that his overall value is not high, as long as the Lakers provide chips like Nunn + second-round picks, then the Lakers will get Joseph immediately.
Magic: Fultz
As a former talented rising star, Fultz has gradually found his form in the Magic team in the past two seasons, but with the accumulation of new stars in the Magic team's backcourt, Fultz is very likely to be peddled by the Magic.
Therefore, the Lakers can completely send Tucker + Nunn + a strictly protected first-round pick in the future to pursue this talented new star and let him play the team's backup point guard.
Trail Blazers: Bledsoe
The same is a backup point guard choice after the Lakers cleared out Westbrook, if the Lakers can't get other quality options, then they can bet on this defensive point guard.
The potential chip is for the Lakers to send Out Nunn + Horton Tucker and get Bledsoe from the Blazers.
Kings: Justin Holliday
Holliday is a decent 3D player with a $6.2 million contract next season, which is entirely within the lakers' acceptable range.
The potential solution is to trade Holliday around Nunn + second-round picks, or to trade Holliday + Harkris + 1-2 second-round picks with Tucker.
Thunder: KenRidge Williams
Williams is a blue-collar striker with limited ability but unlimited vitality and hard work, known as the "desperate three langs", and no coach does not like this type of player.
The potential deal is for the Lakers to send Tucker + second-round picks, and get Williams + Muscala + a second-round pick from the Thunder.
Rockets: Wall
As early as the trade deadline, the Lakers and the Rockets had related discussions, but the Lakers did not accept the relevant plan.
But in the offseason, trading Wall can be seen as an option for reinforcement, and the potential solution is to send Westbrook + first-round swaps to get Wall from the Rockets.
