The countdown to the departure of the Lakers will be exposed: Russell Hachimura's unusual scene is exposed: Los Angeles media speculates that the trade will happen
On January 22, Beijing time, the Lakers defeated the Trail Blazers 134-110, but the abnormal scene after the game seemed to indicate that the Lakers' trade was about to happen.
Russell, who scored 34 points and 8 assists, did not have a happy expression, but looked unhappy. Hachimura also looks a little strange. The headline in the U.S. media read, "Despite the 34-point bang, the teary-eyed Russell and the expressionless Hachimura brought fear to Lakers fans: We better not trade them."
Almost every trade rumor related to the Lakers currently includes Russell, and Hachimura's name also appears frequently, and various trade speculations believe that the two will most likely be sent away before the deadline. Perhaps affected by the trade rumors, the mood of the two was obviously not very happy.
In the post-match interview, Russell had some tears in his eyes and seemed to be wiping tears from the corners of his eyes. He expressed his love for the Lakers. Many fans think that Russell's tone is like saying goodbye to the Lakers in advance. Hachimura gestured to the camera with LA, and his emotions were not very right.
Some Los Angeles media reposted pictures and videos of the two, worried that something was about to happen. A Los Angeles media wrote: "Something seems to be wrong with both Russell and Hachimura. There are also Los Angeles media who wrote: "The Lakers' locker room is quiet, Russell sounds sad, and Hachimura looks a little wrong, something is about to happen." There is also speculation from the Los Angeles media that the two may have learned something in advance that the outside world does not know.
It was previously reported that the Lakers and Hawks are already in talks about Dejounte Murray, and the framework of the deal includes Russell, Schifino and a first-round pick. Most of the other rumors are also related to Russell and Hachimura, considering that the Lakers refused to trade Reaves, their most realistic main bargaining chips are Russell and Hachimura.
Russell has been in great form lately, averaging 27.2 points and 6.4 assists per game in the last five games, shooting 56% from the field and hitting 4.4 three-pointers per game. There may be some Lakers fans who are reluctant to let Russell go, but to put it another way, this is also the time when he has the highest trade value. If the Lakers want to trade him, it may also be the best time. Would you like to see the Lakers complete a trade for Russell? and who would you like to see them trade for Russell?
