The Lakers finally completed their first trade this offseason. They exchanged Tucker Jr., who was in poor condition, for "Mad Dog" Beverley , a fighter with nearly full mental attributes and no fear of any competitor. . He is the most hated player in Westbrook 's career. The quarrel between the two sides has lasted for nearly 10 years. Almost all media are not optimistic about this backcourt combination. "Bleacher Report" reporter Andy Bailey believes that the Lakers must send Westbrook away; salary expert Bobby Marks thinks this will look better than WWE ( mixed martial arts ); NBA famous mouthpiece Skip said in the live show "Undisputed": "Beverley is now a better player than Westbrook, he is a better three-pointer A shooter, a better playmaker who does all the right things in the game to help the team win the game.” Clippers Farbod. Esnaashari even sarcastically said: "If the game reaches the decisive moment, and Beverley serves as the point guard and Westbrook sits on the bench, it will be very interesting."
But these are not enough to shake Westbrook's decision to stay in the Lakers. Determination, and James may be the last straw that overwhelms him. After a season of hard work, they still failed to find a compatible way. It would not do any good to each other if they forced themselves together. James would lose the chance to win the championship again, and Westbrook would suffer in the big city of Los Angeles. The media and fans poured out overwhelming accusations and abuse. Recently, according to US media "nbaanalysis" reporter Tim Bontemps revealed that the Lakers, Cavaliers, and Wizards are negotiating a three-party trade offer. If the negotiations go smoothly, the Lakers will not only be able to send Westbrook away as they wish, but also welcome Sexton and Waves. We might as well take a closer look at the two major reinforcements for Erzingis:
1, the Lakers sent Westbrook, the 2027 first-round pick, 2029 The first-round pick and the 2025 second-round pick got Porzingis and Sexton (sign first and then trade);
2, Wizards sent Porzingis, Will Barton, got Westbrook , 2027 first-round pick (Lakers), 2025 second-round pick (Lakers);
3, Cavaliers sent Sexton (sign first and then traded) to get Will Barton + 2029 first-round pick (Lakers).
The Lakers are definitely the biggest winner of this deal. Porzingis is representing the Latvian national team in the European Championships. He is simply a killer in the European arena. In a recent game with the Turkish national team During the game, he directly defeated Rockets starting center Shen Jing. Pozin is a tall center with a height of 2.21 meters and a wingspan of 2.29 meters. He has been selected as the All-Star . His addition will be of great help to the improvement of the Lakers' internal strength. In addition, thick eyebrows has publicly stated that he prefers to play the role of power forward. If Pozin can finally join, he will take off his hat to general manager Pelinka.
Sexton is a player who has averaged 20+ points per game in his career, which is not common in the NBA. He once single-handedly defeated Duran in a regular season game. The Nets, special , Harden , Irving , became famous in one fell swoop. The Lakers need to add fresh blood to the lineup, and Sexton, nicknamed "Spiritual Boy", can undoubtedly bring energy and passion to Los Angeles. The Cavaliers and Sexton's contract renewal issue is at a deadlock. It has been difficult for him to return to Cleveland. This deal will allow the Cavaliers to get an excellent defender who averages 14.7 points, 4.8 rebounds and 3.9 assists per game. With a valuable first-round pick, General Manager Altman might even be able to laugh out of his dreams.
Westbrook once averaged a triple-double with the Wizards, and the fans there loved watching him play. Not only that, Bill has established a good friendship with Westbrook, and he does not exclude Westbrook from returning to Washington. The Wizards can also use this to get rid of Porzingis's big contract. His performance last season failed to impress the Wizards management.
