Sometimes, the writing it just on the wall. Anyone in its vicinity can read it. Some NBA teams need to break up too. In

Have you ever known a failing couple? Everyone knows they’re failing. They bicker in front of you, and who knows what happens behind closed doors?

Realistically, everyone knows they need to break up. In some cases, nobody knows why they’re still together. 

For example, look at the Los Angeles Lakers. In 2021-22, they won 34 games in spite of presumed championship aspirations.

At 1-5, they don’t appear to be on pace to improve this year. Frankly, this team needs to break up. 

Here’s a deal that has them doing so – and acquiring Myles Turner in the process. 

 

Indiana Pacers Receive: G Russell Westbrook, 2027 First-Round Pick (LAL), 2029 First-Round Pick (LAL) 

Los Angeles Lakers Receive: C Myles Turner, G/F Buddy Hield
