Why The Los Angeles Lakers Do The Deal 

The Lakers have several reasons to do this deal. 

When something isn’t working, there’s value in changing it. The Lakers are in the midst of a second consecutive disappointing season. If they don’t have a sudden and drastic turnaround, making changes for their own sake might be wise. 

Moreover, pairing LeBron James with a co-star who doubles as a knockdown shooter may be more rational than continuing to pair him with Davis. Yes, the pair won a title together – but they haven’t come remotely close to replicating that feat. 

Finally, it’s been suggested that the relationship between James and Davis is worsening. If that’s true, this deal makes particular sense.
