I think the Laker realize their championship window with LeBron is shut and that's why they seemingly aren't spending what little assets they have left to try to ditch Westbrook. They are just looking further down the road which is smart.
But is Lavine better than just rebuilding? Like don't get me wrong, I love me some Zach Lavine. He's an electrifying player and is a top 15 scorer in the league. But where are you going as a team with him as your number 1? Bulls were stuck on a treadmill for years with him (not that they gave him much).
Spending basically the last ounce of your trading lifeforce for Lavine to me is foolish and desperate. And I don't think it's even possible without throwing in AD. Which makes it even more foolish and desperate.
