Pelinka is extremely active, the Lakers have clear goals! US media sends 3 teams trading plan: Hachimura replaces Allen

The team reporter revealed that Pelinka was extremely active and the Lakers' strengthening goal was clear! The US media "Sports Illustrated" also quickly delivered a perfect three-team trading plan, exchanging Hachimura for the starting inside Allen.

Pellinka is extremely active

According to the Lakers' team reporter Anthony F. Irwin, it is confirmed from multiple sources that Lakers' general manager Pelinka has been extremely active in the trading market recently and has asked several teams with the chips of trading Ma Wei.

Anthony F. Irwin wrote in the report: "With less than a month left before the draft, Pelinka has communicated with several teams. He used the trading framework of the previous trading framework for trading Mark Williams as a benchmark to ensure that as much information is collected before the offseason transaction is completed."

Before the trading deadline of this season, the Lakers once sent Kneckett + Reddish + 2031 unprotected first round and 2030 draft pick swap from the Hornets, but eventually gave up the deal because of Marvel's health.

The Lakers have clear goals

Whether at the season's summary conference or this team record Anthony F. Irwin, the Lakers' primary goal in the offseason is to strengthen the inside.

And this time the team record disclosed more detailedly the Lakers' needs and plans for inside reinforcement, involving Pelinka and coach Redick.

The Lakers' goal is to introduce a center who is good at eating cakes to maximize the passing ability of Doncic, James and Reeves, but Redick also hopes to introduce a center who is strong and good at opening up space to cooperate with his "5-for-5" tactics. Therefore, if the Lakers introduce a center with eating cakes in the trading market, they will introduce another strong space-type inside in the free market to complete complementarity, and vice versa.

US media sends 3 team trading plans

At present, the Lakers' goals are still focused on public trading goals such as Gafford and Caraxton, and are actively waiting for the other potential targets to appear.

For this reason, the US media "hoopshabit" advised the Lakers in advance to wait for Allen of the Cavaliers, because his salary situation and Allen's performance in the playoffs were lower than expected, and Mobley's potential growth problems, Allen is very likely to be put on the shelves.

The US media "hoopshabit" regards the Lakers as Allen's best next choice.

Another US media "Sports Illustrated" gave the Lakers a potential three-team trading plan that pursues Allen.

The trading plan is as follows

The Lakers get: Allen + Mann + Ocorro + Nian + 27-year second round + 29-year second round;

Cavaliers get: Hachimura + Kneckett + Milton + Claybel + 30-year first round swap + 31-year unprotected first round + 3 second round picks;

Hawks get: Vanderbilt + Struce.

For the Lakers, this is a completely worth betting on the trade plan. First, Allen solved the problem of the Lakers seeking to start the inside.

27-year-old Allen is an elite rebounder and blocker, and will provide the rebound and basket protection required by the Lakers. He has limited self-sufficiency offensive ability, but his pie efficiency is excellent, with a career shooting percentage of nearly 70%, which will efficiently convert Doncic, James and Reeves' passes.

At the same time, his weight, height and ability to compete with large centers are enough to solve the shortcomings of the Lakers' current inside line.

The most important thing is that when Hachimura Shizuo, Vanderbilt, Kneckett and Milton lost their roles in the Redick system, the Lakers replaced a group of blue-collar players through this deal.

Among them, Mann and Okoro will provide wing-based personnel flexibility, and Nion's space ability is Redick's favorite.

In short, this is a high-quality alternative that is not expensive for the Lakers, but it is possible to recreate the transaction based on the Mavis trade to solve multiple problems in one go. If players like Gafford and Clarkston cannot be obtained, then this deal is definitely worth betting on.
