With four consecutive losses and a current ranking of around 10th in the Western Conference, the Lakers' worries at the beginning of the season gradually woke up from the joy of winning the championship in the midseason. It turns out that the current Lakers still do not have the strength to win the championship, maybe the playoff seat is as precarious as it was at the beginning?
It is reported that the media suggested that the Los Angeles Lakers should trade Hachimura and Gabe Vincent to the Utah Jazz, who had already waived this season, and they were even willing to trade Markkanen! For this reason, what can such a 2-for-1 bring to the Los Angeles Lakers? Obviously, he is a better defender who can score and has better organizational skills, which is better than Russell!
When it comes to Clarkson, in terms of data, it is close to the level of an All-Star, and it is also a highlight moment on the NBA stage, such as once scoring 45 points in a single game, and what is even more valuable is that this is done as a substitute, which can really explain that it has outstanding offensive ability, and it really lives up to the reputation of Asia's No. 1 guard! For this reason, if he can come to the Lakers, he can better assist James and thick eyebrows to compete for the championship this season.
What's even more gratifying is that Clarkson's growth over the years, he was originally a member of the Purple and Gold Army, scoring well in the style of play, and now he has developed more reliable organizational skills in the Jazz. In the media's view, it can share the pressure on James in terms of passing, and it is also enough to partner with Davis to complete the connection between inside and outside, as if it can make the team more capital to compete for the ultimate glory.
