Right now, the NBA free agency period is seemingly at a standstill, presumably because everyone is waiting on the Brooklyn Nets to make the next move.
Kevin Durant reportedly wants out, and Kyrie Irving does as well. The Nets and the Los Angeles Lakers have been reportedly engaging in serious trade talks regarding Irving, but nothing has happened on that front, at least not yet.
After the Russell Westbrook experience this past season resulted in what most people would consider failure, the Lakers have an opportunity. They can not only acquire Irving, who is a borderline superstar and can address many of their issues, but they can also undo the Westbrook trade, which many people believe was a giant mistake.
