In not so many words, Patrick Beverley said it all.
traded by the Lakers at the deadline to the Orlando Magic
in exchange for center Mo Bamba, spending just a half-season in Los Angeles with LeBron James and Anthony Davis. With the Lakers still struggling to fight for a playoff spot, Beverley sounded off on an episode of “The Pat Bev Podcast with Rone” to discuss the team’s underlying issues.“It wasn’t basketball. It wasn’t basketball. It was other s–t. But other s–t that you really can’t like pin or point out. You know, comes and goes. You know, a little bit here, a little bit there.
As of Wednesday, the Lakers are 26-32, 2 1/2 games back from the Utah Jazz for the final seed in the play-in tournament. Even with James and Davis healthy, the playoffs look like a stretch – and Beverley seemed to think the team had issues that stretched beyond the court.Perhaps one of those issues was Russell Westbrook, who was a brutal fit in Los Angeles for his 130 games there between 2021 and 2023.
