Just today, NBA celebrity Each Lowe said in his personal podcast, if the Lakers are willing to send the next 2 first-round picks, then they can immediately reach a deal with the Pacers Willow for Turner and Yield, but according to local media in Los Angeles, the Lakers internal consensus is that Yield and Turner do not bring qualitative changes to the Lakers' system, Turner is also a slightly injury-prone attributes The Lakers are not worth sending out 2 first-round picks for Turner, who is also a slightly injury-prone inside linebacker, and is overly aggressive on defense in pursuit of cap figures.

However, we all understand that the Lakers want to enter the playoffs and even have the strength to compete for the championship, trading Willow is a must-do operation, Willow's character is bound not to go to the bench, and he is in the starting lineup, once James holds the ball, Willow is no threat on the court, but will squeeze the team's space. In addition, former NBA star Robert Sorry said that Willow and Beverly have no real friendship, which will also be a huge locker room pitfall.

American media Basketball reported: Spurs in the off season has discussed with the Lakers West brook's trade, as of now, the Spurs are still one of the few teams unwilling to take over West brook's contract. The Salt Lake City Tribune followed up with a report that the Lakers could reach a 3-for-3 deal with the Spurs, with the Los Angeles Lakers sending West brook, a 2027 first-round pick and a 2029 first-round pick, and the Spurs sending Perpetual, Dermot and Richardson. The media believes these three Spurs players can contribute to the Lakers' championship bid.

For the Spurs, their goal is to completely rebuild and get a top ranking in next year's draft, and Willow's expiring contract will completely free up the Spurs' payroll space. The value of the two first-round picks speaks for itself, and will be an important bargaining chip for the Spurs to end their rebuild in future deals.

For the Lakers, got three ready to play, the team strength to improve a lot. First of all, Perpetual in the past season played the best performance of his career, average data came to 13.5 points and 9.3 rebounds, shooting 61.8%, his finishing ability and defensive ability to another level, Perpetual's arrival will reduce the defensive pressure on Davis, so that Davis can play in his comfortable way, but also to reduce the risk of injury. However, Poulterer needs to address his poor performance on free throws. Overall, Purport is a very durable player whose arrival could boost the Lakers' height on the interior and secure rebounds and rim protection compared to Turner.

Richardson is a great 3 wing, his stats came to 10.2 points and 2.8 rebounds last season, and he shot 41.5% from 3-point three. In the off season, the Lakers lost Monk and Anthony on the outside, leaving the already stretched outside facing a situation where no one is available. Richardson can make up for the Lakers' shooting ability on the outside, and he and Beverly can also help the Lakers on the defensive end.

Dermot is a pure shooter, and although he looks to struggle a bit on defense, he can play without the ball, and his 42.2% 3-point shooting can improve the Lakers' offensive space. Dermot averaged a nice 11.3 points and 2.3 rebounds last season, and can bring scoring ability to the Lakers bench. However, despite this, many fans believe that the Lakers should not send away 2 first-round picks in this deal.

Some even think that the Lakers should look more at freeing up salary space this off season, and then try to bring in superb reinforcements for James and Davis. Willow's contract is just one year away, and the Lakers will get more than $40 million in payroll space at the end of next season. Further, the Lakers at this stage with West brook can get back the chips can not bring the Lakers qualitative improvement, complete the deal will not be able to win the championship chances to improve how much. It would be too risky to offer two first rounders in the deal. However, James is close to 39 years old, if the Lakers waste a season on this, it is also an irresponsible injury for the old James. In this regard, how do you think about it?
