On April 4, Beijing time, the Lakers lost to the Nuggets, suffered six consecutive losses, and there was only a theoretical hope left to qualify for the playoffs. Los Angeles media lakeshowlife suggested that the Lakers leave thick eyebrows and Westbrook in the offseason, part ways with Vogel and try to trade James.
Lakeshowlife believes that the talent of thick eyebrows is there, he can still get 28 points, 9 rebounds, 8 assists, 3 blocks and 2 steals with an injured ankle, and what the Lakers have to do is to make a sound offseason plan to strengthen his body and fully recover his health. They believe that the Lakers should not continue to let the thick eyebrows come on the court, but should let him completely truce the rest of the game and start to recover the plan.
As for Westbrook, it was also affirmed by Lakeshowlife. Against the Nuggets, Westbrook contributed 27 points, 10 rebounds and 7 assists with only 2 turnovers. His defense has also improved. "The next team and coach who knows how to use Russ sees what he's capable of doing," Lakeshowlife wrote. It's Vogel who can't do it, and we'll see in a few weeks that one person still has a job and the other loses his job. ”
Finally, Lakeshowlife suggested the Lakers should trade James. "Klutch Sports (James' agency) and his media agency will scare you into thinking that the Lakers can't survive without James' average of 30 points per game," Lakeshowlife wrote. If they don't renew their contract, James can choose to leave, and before he actually leaves, it will be a distraction for the team. Plus, he's really going to slow down the team on the offensive end. ”
Against the Nuggets, Lakeshowlife believes that Westbrook and Thick Brow have found some chemistry, and the team has played some offensive tactics. It looks like the players are actually playing basketball, not waiting for LeBron to make a decision on the court. Lakeshowlife also referred to earlier criticism of James for "courting both sides" on some issues.
Lakeshowlife wrote: "If the iconic figure in the league [referring to Abdul Abdul-Jabbar] can't read this person, do you think Pelinka, Jenny Bass, his teammates and the coaching staff will be okay?" He's almost 40 years old, is it really worth testing this theory with $45 million to $50 million a year? ”
Lakeshowlife thinks that if the Lakers are smart enough, they should take advantage of james's trade value and exchange him for some future assets (good luck to them, because it's hard!). Then sack Vogel, leave Westbrook and give the team's keys to Davis. Of course, this is just the view of the L.A. media, how do you think the Lakers should operate in the offseason?
