NBA Trade Deadline priority: Help; any help 

The Los Angeles Lakers need help, any help heading into the NBA Trade Deadline. This is a team that is quickly falling into irrelevancy in the Western Conference and they need to save face after what could end up being a terrible last 12 months.

LeBron James has been fantastic this season and while Anthony Davis has been in and out of the lineup all season long, there’s really no excusing. Russell Westbrook has been a colossal failure for the team and the front office has to make a move that can try to offset it.

I’m not sure what the Lakers will be able to do at the deadline and they don’t have many assets, but expect them to try to make a big move.
