The Lakers have just finished one of the most disappointing seasons in NBA history, and they undoubtedly need to make a move this offseason, but the Lakers estimate that it is difficult to promote any big moves, after all, James, Davis and Westbrook are players with big contracts, and they already occupy a lot of salary space.
Still, the Lakers have a chance to make a move this offseason. Us media James Pearsey made the following 3 bold predictions for the Lakers this offseason:
1. Lakers trade Russell Westbrook
2. Lakers trade Talon Horton Tucker
3. The Lakers can enter the new season with a better lineup
First of all, it is clear that the Lakers will still have a lot of difficulty in promoting the transaction involving Wei Shao, after all, Wei Shao's contract and the poor performance of the past season have led to a decline in the value of his trade, even if the Lakers are willing to send away Wei Shao in the case of sending out future first-round draft picks, it is estimated that there will not be many teams willing to take over this contract.
The second is that the Lakers will send Horton Tucker, a player who is also one of the "best" trading chips in the hands of the Lakers, and if they want to improve the lineup, trading Tucker is indeed one of the few ways. As for whether the Lakers can build a better lineup before the new season, this is indeed a future worth looking forward to.
