Browse Weibo and see a netizen comment that the Lakers can play Weishao + two first-round trades with the Jazz in exchange for Markkanen + Vanderbilt + Beasley.
I can only say that this fan is a true Lakers spiritual shareholder, and he thinks too much about the Lakers.
Let's assume that Jazz chief Danny Angie is really brain-blooded and willing to facilitate this deal, then the Lakers directly fill in the team's two major holes. Artillery battery shooter Laurie Markkanen shot 40.2% from three-point range during his Bulls days. He also scored 17 points in his first game with the Jazz this season, shooting 3-of-7 from three-point range. Vanderbilt is 2.06 meters tall, and he has shown excellent defensive ability with the Timberwolves, which has been recognized by coaches and players alike. In the first game of the same new season, he scored seven points and 12 rebounds in 18 minutes of play.
With these two joining, the Lakers directly have a shooter The defensive ability of the forward line is directly improved by three levels, and the speechless three-guard formation will no longer appear.
At the same time, Malik Beasley is by no means optional. He averaged 20.7 and 19.6 points per game during his 19-20 and 20-21 seasons, respectively. It can be said that the attack ability is quite good. However, as Edwards joined and grew, Beasley's playing time was greatly compressed and he lost his starting position, which also caused the scoring to plummet.
If Beasley can really join the Lakers, the Lakers can provide him with a main position and stable playing time, and he will definitely regain his former scoring ability.
The Lakers have lost twice in a row, shooting only 20% from three-point range, and if they do decide to send two first-round picks, don't always stare at Hield and Turner of the Pacers, the Jazz have better chips than the Pacers.
Moreover, the Lakers just made a trade with the Jazz, trading Horton Tucker + Stanley Johnson for Patrick Beverley. It shows that Rob Pelinka and Danny Angie can talk. The Lakers traded for much-needed players, and the Jazz began a complete rebuild ready for the arrival of Vambiama.
Win-win, absolute win-win.
