Bamba, the 6th pick in the 2018 draft out of Texas, has spent his entire career with the Magic before coming to the Lakers. When combined with his always high-level defense, Holiday is providing the type of two-way play next to Giannis that every superstar would love to have. In the trade, the Lakers sent Thomas Bryant to the Nuggets while Patrick Beverley and cash considerations went to the Magic. Beasley and Vanderbilt join the Lakers after spending a half-season in Utah, but had previously played with Russell on the Timberwolves before heading to the Jazz as part of the Rudy Gobert trade this past offseason. LeBron has often been viewed through the lens of his unselfish approach to the game and shot creation ability for others, making it fitting that over the course of a week he not only passed Kareem in career points, but leapt into 4th in the all-time career assists list as well. In a second deal, the Lakers also traded for center Mo Bamba from the Orlando Magic, forward Davon Reed from the Denver Nuggets and two second-round picks from the L.A.

Bucks vs Lakers Picks and Predictions: Giannis Carves Up New ... (Covers.com)

NBA odds, picks, and predictions for the Milwaukee Bucks at L.A. Lakers on February 9. NBA betting best bet and free pick analysis.

The Lakers got younger and have the ability to share the minutes burden more effectively with this move. Anthony Davis looked totally disinterested in the game and L.A. They’ve won eight straight since Khris Middleton returned to the lineup and have been smoking the NBA’s bottom feeders. just conceded so many open shots right at the rim. Those possessions filtering out to LeBron, AD, and other role players spotting up should improve the Lakers' offense. Giannis has eclipsed 40 points in all three of his most recent games against the Lakers and is shooting north of 76% from the field because the Lakers are one of the worst defensive transition teams in the NBA. This is a delicate art, and one that requires each member of the team to do their part in tandem with the others, any single weak link folds the whole project. That spells death against Giannis, and it’s a big piece of why he’s had L.A.’s number in recent years. It’s also one thing that L.A.’s trade will not help in the short term. They’re also in the Bottom 10 in opponent transition frequency, meaning opposing teams are in position to capitalize on their poor effort a lot. Whether off steals or live rebounds, the Lakers just get beat back by the opposition far too often. Lakers believe Giannis will pick apart a Lakers team that hasn’t had time to prepare for him properly.
