The Pelicans have officially informed the league that they don't want the Lakers' 2024 first-round pick (the last first-round pick owed in the Bushy Eyebrow trade that year), and they want a 2025 first-round pick.

In this way, the No. 17 pick in the first round in 2024 is still the Lakers' own.

According to the rules, the Lakers can only trade one of the first-round picks in 2029 or 2030.

Because of the rules, the team can only trade first-round picks in the next seven years, and cannot trade first-round picks for two consecutive years.

However, after the 2024 draft, the Lakers will be able to trade three first-round picks (including a 2024 first-round pick, a 2029 first-round pick and a 2031 first-round pick).

Therefore, if the Lakers have a big trade and need to operate a large number of first-round picks, they can wait until after the draft, and the space will be a little more flexible.

However, it is now widely believed that the Lakers are unlikely to trade for a third star, which is not their main purpose in the offseason.

The main purpose of the Lakers' offseason should still be to strengthen their character roster!

First of all, it is mainly because the competition for trading stars is too great, and the Lakers' existing chips are not very competitive.

And none of the stars on the trade list now look like they're a good fit for the Lakers.

Like Bridges

Like Mitchell or Garland

Another example is Murray or Blowing Young

These are all names that are more often mentioned in the trade speculation now, but they are not very compatible with the Lakers, and the asking price of the teams where these stars belong will definitely not be low, and it feels that the Lakers are difficult to match.

It is unlikely that the Lakers will invest all three draft picks (2024, 2029, 2031) this year, because it is estimated that the Lakers will need more draft picks in 2029 and 2031.

The "future" of the Lakers is already overdrawn and can no longer be overdrawn!

But now it's almost certain that the Lakers will definitely make a trade at or after the draft.

Look forward to the Lakers this summer!

And it's not just the Lakers this summer, because many stars are put on the shelf, so the offseason is not destined to be calm, and there should be a lot of big trades.

The joy of the codeword!

The Lakers still have a big problem, they haven't decided on a coach yet.

Ham has almost found a new job, and the Lakers have yet to find a new coach.

Budenholzer, who had just become the Suns' new coach, sent Ham an offer to join the Suns' coaching staff, but Ham refused.

When Budenholzer was head coach with the Hawks and Bucks, Ham was his assistant coach.

However, Ham has been under a lot of pressure in the two seasons with the Lakers, and now that he has been cut, he probably still wants to rest and put himself back to work. After all, although he has no job, the Lakers still have to pay him a salary.

In other words, the Suns are really interested in the Lakers coach. Just fired a former Lakers coach, and now wants to recruit another former Lakers coach.

At this time, should we praise the vision of the Lakers, or should we question the vision of the sun?

Magic said that the most important thing for the Lakers now is to strengthen the roster, otherwise it will be useless to replace the coach.

In other words, Magic feels that Ham is not primarily responsible for the current situation of the Lakers?!

What do you think is the most important thing for the Lakers right now? What should I do if I want to strengthen the first step?
