Recently, the Lakers reached a deal with the Jazz they sent out Horton Tucker and Stanley Johnson, got the defensive tough Beverly. The deal was reached, it immediately stirred up a thousand waves, we all know that the conflict between Beverly and Willow as far back as the 2013 playoffs, Beverly's reckless and ferocious defense made many players victims, including Willow, that season Beverly directly caused Willow's meniscus to tear. The two moved their on-court feud directly to the social media in the seasons that followed. Beverly taunted Willis and the Lakers for failing to make the playoffs last season, while Willis told the media that Beverly doesn't know how to play defense and can't defend anyone.

Obviously, in such a situation, how can the two play together side by side in the new season? And as far as role positioning is concerned, Beverly is undoubtedly the first choice for the Lakers starting point guard at the moment. Beverly is a defensive tough, single defense ability is very strong, willing to do dirty work tired, good at messing with the opponent's mind, which is the attribute that the Lakers outside players lack, in addition, compared to Willow, he can also shoot three-pointers. Obviously, with the addition of Beverly, it also implies that the Lakers will definitely send Willow away before the start of the new season. And NBA media person Andy Kamehameha broke the news that the Lakers have decided to trade Willis, the question is how many assets Permalink is willing to give up in the deal, and how good the Lakers can become in this deal.

In response, the U.S. media NBA analysis network also listed three trade options for the Lakers to send Willis away, as follows.

First: trade with the Pacers

Los Angeles Lakers send: West brook, 2027 and 2029 first-round signings, the

The Indiana Pacers send: Buddy Yield and Turner.

This deal is undoubtedly the most important one the Lakers would like to make at this point. Although it would cost two first rounders, it would be worth it to send West brook away for top scorer Yield and cap king Turner. This way, the Lakers have a stable shooter on the outside that can be relied on, the offensive space will improve a lot, and on the inside, the Brow is no longer alone, then they can form a starting lineup of Beverly, Yield, James, Davis, Turner, this starting lineup is quite competitive, and the offense and defense is also very balanced.

Second: Trade with Spurs

Lakers send: West brook, first-round picks in 2027 and 2029.

Spurs send: Richardson, Dermot and Purcell.

This is an alternative option for the Lakers, and if a deal with the Pacers cannot be reached in the end, then it is worth trying to go for a deal with the Spurs. First of all, Dermot and Richardson are both players who can average more than 10 points per game and have a quality wing with more than 40% three-point shooting, they can join the Lakers and James to form a "one-star four" lineup. Purcell played his best career form last season, averaging 13.5 points, 9.3 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 1.7 caps, a comprehensive data, true shooting percentage of 61.3%, his arrival undoubtedly let Davis in the offensive and defensive ends to reduce a lot of pressure.

Third: Trade with Magic

Lakers send: West brook, 2027 first-round pick and 2029 first-round pick.

Magic send: Futz, Terrence Ross and Isaac.

The last time the Lakers made a trade with the Magic was ten years ago, when the Lakers traded for Howard in order to win a championship, and the F lineup ended up disagreeing. Futz was a first-round pick, but he has had a rough career, missing Le many games due to injury. Last season, he only played 18 games, averaging 10.8 points, 2.7 rebounds, 5.5 assists and 1.1 steals, although such results and people's expectations of him are still some gap, but he is, after all, returning from a major injury, need time to recover. However, Foldout still has a lot of potential in him, and his arrival will increase the Lakers' competitiveness in the future. As long as he stays healthy, he can become the Lakers' first choice at guard. Terrence Ross, on the other hand, averaged 10 points, 2.6 rebounds and 1.8 assists per game last season, but was much less efficient, though he is a steady ball-handler with open passing vision, good at rebounding and confident in the game, rarely out of his element.

However, the above 3 potential trade options, it is not difficult to see that the Lakers and the Pacers trade for Turner and Yield is the most realistic and maximum to enhance the team's strength of the deal, for this, how do you think?
