Part 3/6:
As the season progresses, speculation arises regarding a potential shakeup before the trade deadline. Despite a charismatic win over the Golden State Warriors on Christmas Day, the team remains at risk of falling into another lackluster season. According to recent reports from Fadeaway World, the Lakers could make Pelinka the scapegoat if the team’s performance doesn’t improve.
The narrative showcases Pelinka as a passive participant in team management, having made limited moves in the off-season despite evident gaps in the roster. With a history marked by a mere three significant trades since 2011, critics argue that this inaction will yield dire consequences for the Lakers' competitive standing in the league.
