For much of the offseason, the inability of the Lakers to make anything happen with the roster has been a point of frustration for fans. But then again, there were always extenuating circumstances. Contextually, the Lakers either couldn't offer the right role, the right money, or the right role with the right money. They lack trade pieces teams seem to want, which isn't exactly a great defense of the front office but does explain the inactivity. The Lakers also don't have a ton of draft capital to toss around, either. Put it all together, and you get Gary Trent Jr., a quality floor spacer, decent defender and probably the best remaining free agent on the market signing in Milwaukee for the veteran's minimum without the Lakers even seeming to get involved. Of all this offseason's misses, this one probably bothers Lakers fans the most. The Lakers are apparently so boxed in, they can't even make a play for a good player at the lowest possible financial commitment. How did this happen? What can be done about it? They preached patience at the trade deadline, looking towards the summer. Now they're preaching patience in the summer, looking towards the regular season and the deadline. Not ideal. Bronny's contract obviously takes up a spot. Would the Lakers have had the foresight to give the 55th pick a 2-way deal in a non-Bronny year? Finally, Jaylen Brown seemed less-than-impressed with young James so far, getting caught by lipreaders watching him play in Vegas. Brown thinks Bronny will be with the big club all year, because that's what dad wants. This, as opposed to the G-League. Is he right?
