Report: Lakers Urged to Make Wild Trade Involving LeBron James, Anthony Davis

The Los Angeles Lakers are in a bad position right now. They have lost too many games this season. Fans want the front office to make a move. Well, Lakers general manager Rob Pelinka decided to move on with the same squad. Was it a good decision? Pelinka didn’t make a trade at the deadline. Fans boo Lakers players. According to an insider, the Lakers should trade LeBron James and Anthony Davis.

Yes, this is the craziest scenario we have ever heard. The Lakers tried really hard to get LeBron. Jeanie Buss and Magic Johnson got him on the first day of free agency. Now she is leaving games in the third quarter!

The NBA says the Lakers should trade LeBron and Davis

LeBron’s first season with the Lakers was a failure. He sustained a groin injury and missed a lot of time. The team missed the playoffs and the front office decided to give him extra help. Pelinka traded three players and a few picks to get Davis from the New Orleans Pelicans. It was really good and the Lakers won a championship despite the pandemic. Players were forced to finish the season inside a bubble in Orlando.

What happened in the next couple of seasons? LeBron and Davis didn’t spend much time on the floor together. Both players missed big chunk of the seasons due to injuries. Davis is out at the moment. He didn’t even see much action this season.

How will Buss fix the damage?

ESPN’s Brian Windhorst reported that some people in the league support a trade of both LeBron and Davis. LeBron is the best basketball player of all time. Why would Buss trade him? Davis’ name has been involved in many trade talks.

“People in the league who have a lot of experience say they should trade them both,” Windhorst said on his podcast. “And because again, it makes some sense. I just don’t think they can do that and I think this is going to be a severe, serious conversation that probably could hang over Lakers games.”

If you ask Shaquille O’Neal, he will say that the Lakers should keep LeBron. According to him, this is the only way to winning a title.
