Sf there is a team in the NBA that needs a deep catharsis, those are the lakers. In fact, the circumstances are pushing them to an urgent reconstruction to try to return, next season, with options to fight for the ring, the same ones that they have squandered in a ‘horribilis’ year.
For now, with coach casting up and running, the goal is to throw ballast and start thinking about guarantee reinforcements. Both of these things are hot on the team these days.
From the yellow team it has been leaked that one of the operations they most intend to do is to traspasar a Russell Westbrook. And nobody cares. The base has failed in his adventure to succeed in Los Angeles and has become the target of all criticism for the team’s hit. He is simply not considered qualified to lead the team in the future and you want to find a way out.
The problem encountered by Lakers is that most of the general managers and scouts of the rest of the team do not consider Russ as a ‘useful’ player in their respective projects. Much less considering that the base has left one year contract for 47 million dollars, which makes the operation almost unfeasible for most. Infeasible and absurd.
Actually what is left Westbrook It is a player option, but it seems clear that he will exercise it to collect those 47 million dollars.
The consolation for the Lakers is that there are a couple of options on the horizon to work with. One is that of the Indiana Pacers, who appear to be willing to take the risk that Westbrook entails. Also, the Pacers have something to offer that the Lakers already wanted back in the day, Buddy Held. Be one that Californians study thoroughly.
But there is another, perhaps even more interesting. The Charlotte Hornetsafter his disappointment when he fell in the Play-In against the Hawks, they begin to look to the future trying to hit the table. And they have noticed Westbrook and his massive contract.
In the US they say that if the Hornets are capable of putting in the balance of the operation LaMelo Ballthe transfer is made because Ball is a longing for the Lakers and would be a signing that would have the approval of LeBron James. LaMelo, who by the way has confirmed that he will not wear the ‘2’ that he has worn this season and return to the ‘1’, could become one of the great reinforcements of the Lakers for next season.
