“Rob Needs to Be Fired”: NBA Fans Baffled After Hearing the Latest Trade Updates From the LeBron James’ Lakers

The Los Angeles Lakers are currently not making any progress as they have been loitering around the bottom half of the Western Conference table for quite a significant time. Even their centerpiece LeBron James is unable to do anything despite dropping 30+ points religiously in past few games. Meanwhile, amid all these crises on the California side, the latest trade updates from the Lakers’ front office added more fuel to the fire. In addition to that, the news made the fans express their opinions on social media.

At the start of the season, as the trade deadline for the Lakers ended, Rob Pelinka and Co. were on a hunt to trade in players to bolster their squad. However, recent reports indicated that there is a change in the plan. The California side would not be looking for any options for the rest of the 2022-23 season. They would look for more options next season when Russell Westbrook’s 47$ million salary comes off the books. In addition to that, the management would also wait for several other deals to expire.
