On April 7, Beijing time, the los Angeles Lakers' ending of the season is believed that many people can not be satisfied, as a team with many future Hall of Fame, it is simply too disappointing to miss the playoffs in advance. The team is bound to make some personnel adjustments this summer, and the "Open Air Stand" media has given some directions.
People familiar with the league believe that the Lakers' team of owners will not change, and Bath will not consider selling the team. With Robert Pelinka still on a one-year contract and no signs of leaving the team at the moment, the top brass will attribute the failure of this season to injuries, Russell Westbrook and LeBron James.
As a result, the Lakers management looks like it will be difficult to change, according to this line of thinking to develop, the Lakers this summer is difficult to have a big move.
Because according to the current management's way of doing things, before their trade deadline this season, they inquired about the deal between Westbrook and Horton Tucker, but they could not complete it. At the end of the season, the value of the duo's trades depreciated further, and they simply did not have valuable draft picks for the other to choose from.
Once Westbrook chooses to execute the player option, then the Lakers' salary space next season will also be almost locked, losing the opportunity to attract reinforcements.
Therefore, the Lakers management is so throwing the pot, attributing the failure to external factors and others, the possible chain reaction is that the Lakers will fall again and again, but there is no hope of moving forward.
