I don’t find anything about the current Lakers team very interesting.
No, I’m serious. I’m not trolling. I find this team to be meh on the scale of NBA teams I’m interested in watching or listening to sports talk about. LeBron will drag this team to the playoffs like he’s done before while they wait for a couple superstars to join him in future years because they have the cap space. Ingram hasn’t quite been the player I thought he would be, either.
rest - https://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/l...ond-superstar/The Lakers are 25-24 on the season, and LeBron James is in danger of missing his first postseason since his second year in the NBA. James has been inactive since Christmas Day with a lingering groin injury, but he's on a day-to-day basis now. The Lakers, of course, knew that building a team around James would be a process.
Los Angeles apparently would like to expedite that process, and it's willing to go all-in to do it.
According to The Athletic's Bill Oram, the Lakers are approaching two types of trades -- to be blunt, the same two kinds of trades any team would presumably look at for the Feb. 7 deadline: a trade that "shores up the current roster" to get them into the playoffs, or "a blockbuster that lands the Lakers a second superstar." The latter, of course, would presumably be to nab Anthony Davis off the Pelicans, a player who Lakers fans have been eyeing all year.

rest - https://sports.yahoo.com/report-lebr...203004701.htmlThe Lakers keep saying Luke Walton’s job is safe the rest of this season.
But there are also reasons they kept getting asked.
Jackie MacMullan and Brian Windhorst of ESPN:
MacMullan: “It’s clear to me – and probably to you, Brian – that LeBron’s camp would prefer a coaching change. They’re not too subtle about that. So, I don’t think that’s fair. I don’t. I don’t think it’s fair.”
Windhorst: “Of course, LeBron publicly hasn’t talked in a month. LeBron publicly –”
MacMullan: “Not LeBron, but all the people around LeBron.”
Windhorst: “That’s right.”
MacMullan: “There’s plenty of them. And they’ve made it known. I don’t think this a shock, is it? For me to say this? I don’t think so.”
Windhorst “That’s a fair thing to say. That’s a fair thing to say.”
