Rivers confessed to Redick affectionately! It was like gratitude and summary, what is the choice of the new boss of the Lakers?

Jenny Buss sold the Lakers for 10 billion, and the Lakers boss officially changed hands. At the same time, the Lakers third scorer Rivers said in the new episode of the Lakers Nation podcast: "It's great to play under him. To be honest, it's been a long time since I've been so happy, it's really great." It sounds like an award presentation to the new coach, but at the critical moment when the team's new and old bosses are replaced, it's more like a summary of how many years you have been with the Lakers!

Through the above information, is he (Rivers) really going to be traded?

As a player who made a comeback from the undraft, scored tens of millions of dollars in the Lakers and experienced peaks and troughs with the team, Reeves' mentality is indeed more peaceful and grateful than that of ordinary players. He has expressed his desire to "stay in Los Angeles for the entire career" on many occasions and has a deep relationship with the Lakers team and the city. The background of this undraft gave him pragmatic and cherishing qualities.

However, the cruelty of professional sports is that sentiment often gives way to cold reality and complex game of interests.

With the Lakers' trade deadline, the ball rights issue between Rivers and Doncic has always been a hot topic in the team. Moreover, the lineup of the three defenders in the backcourt (James, Doncic, Rivers) seems to have a lot of offense and firepower, but the defense is a mess! If the Lakers want to pursue rationalization of the lineup, trading Rivers may be the best solution!

Rivers averaged 20.2 points, 4.5 rebounds and 5.5 assists per game in the regular season this season, and his three-point shooting percentage was 37.7%. Especially when he played against the Pacers at home in February (with both James and Doncic absent), he made 4 of 9 three-pointers and scored a career-high 45 points. His scoring and technical characteristics were fully recognized by the management, and he firmly sat in the third place of the Lakers!

If the Eight Immortals show their magical powers in the regular season, then the playoffs are the touchstone for All-Star players. Unfortunately, Rivers averaged 16.2 points, 5.4 rebounds and 3.6 assists per game, shooting percentage of 41.1%, and three-point shooting percentage dropped to 31.9%, second only to Doncic and James. But he is always a loser, and it is no easy task to achieve such an achievement. What can you expect from him?

With the extremely distorted lineup of the current, it is not ruled out that the new boss uses him as a bargaining chip, about a center with offense and defense capabilities!

Rivers: "Jenny Buss said before that he would not trade mine"!

Mark: "Jenny Buss said, what does it have to do with my new boss?"

Rivers: "………”

So what do you think about whether Rivers will be traded?
