Could the Los Angeles Lakers pull off a trade for LaMarcus Aldridge?
The Los Angeles Lakers are the freshly crowned NBA Champions.
What a time to be alive!
The purple and gold were dominant throughout the playoffs and fully deserve to be this year’s champions. LeBron James and Anthony Davis showed the basketball World that the Los Angeles Lakers are back!
Both players were historically good during the 2019-20 regular season and both stepped it up, even more, come playoff time.
Credit needs to go to the Laker organization as a whole. From Jeanie Buss, Rob Pelinka, Frank Vogel all the way to the training staff.
The Lakers once again are NBA Champions!!!
While the Championship is still fresh, the Los Angeles Lakers cannot afford to rest on their laurels and spend the next few months celebrating.
Yes, they definitely should use this time to unwind and spend time with their families and loved ones after 3 long months in the NBA bubble. They most certainly deserve that time off.
But, sooner rather than later, the purple and gold front office must focus on a way for the Lakers to improve further next year and fix any glaring holes.
While it may not be a glaring hole, adding a 3rd scorer could be a big difference-maker next season.
The Lakers do not have many assets to go chasing superstars, but they might have just enough to chase a former superstar at the end of his prime.
Could the purple and gold bet on themselves and cash in their final trade asset for a one year rental of LaMarcus Aldridge?
Here are 3 ways LaMarcus Aldridge could help the Los Angeles Lakers.
