We need OVERALL defensive toughness and a REAL playmaker/ballhandler.
We especially need defense at the SF and PG positions.
I propose that the Lakers WILL NOT trade for another $10 million player unless that player can fulfill at least two of the three needs--meaning a player from either the PG or SF position that can defend their position and be a floor general too.
That means no Wallace and no Jefferson.
If we take on another 10 million dollar player he will not be getting paid to just play defense at the PG or SF spot. If we take on another 10 mill+ player he will be getting paid to be our floor general AND defensive anchor.
Who do we get?
No ONE (no big bang, high paid player)
Go cheap and acquire some specialists.
Just a thought.
Not Another $10 Million+ Player!

Dirt is Cheap.. Pile it in front of Staples center.. it will be great for pick and roll defence and taking charges..
