In the early hours of Friday, the Los Angeles Lakers suffered a heavy away defeat against them Warriors (127-100), with the Golden State team tying the semifinal series of the Western Conference playoffs at 1-1!
Despite this defeat, the “lake people” have performed so far very good course in this year’s playoffs, eliminating in their first round Memphis Grizzlies 4-2.
Big role in competitive promotion of the Lakers, the organization’s decision played out to… pull the plug and to proceed with a strong “facelift” in the mid-season roster, exchanging among others the Russell Westbrook and the Pat Beverly, bringing back to L.A. players who “click” with LeBron James and Anthony Davis.
Speaking on a podcast, his former ace Olympiakou and now of Chicago Bulls, revealed that Westbrook recently told him that if the Lakers make it all the way to the NBA Finals and are crowned champions, then he will ask for his ring! In fact, Beverly liked the idea, who now plans to do the same!
Let’s remember that Rush managed to score this year with the Lakers jersey, 15.9 points, 7.5 assists and 6.2 rebounds in 52 games, while, Beverly had 6.4 points and 2.6 assists in 45 matches.
