Lakers are off

Lakers draw with Sacramento Kings and Utah Jazz in the last position of the Western Conference.

The Lakers, right now, are one of the weakest teams in the league. If we add Kobe’s absence and the output of Pau Gasol, we find a team condemned to ocuppy the lower part of the classifications.

Maybe it suits them to occupy these positions, with a view to the next year draft. But, if Gasol’s output is confirmed, the franchise would need another star for being a team able to fight for the ring. This star would be Kevin Love. Media echoes rumors about the trade that would place Minessota’s center in Los Angeles. And here comes the problem. Signing Kevin Love means Lakers would be closer to the salary cap and the possibilities of acquiring the services of high level players would decrease.

Personally, I would sign Love and I would try to be in the first positions of the draft wich seems to have high level.
