Amid the Los Angeles Lakers' defensive woes, Lakers fans have been fantasizing about a Dillon Brooks trade. Indeed, Brooks' gritty mentality on defense could do much to cure the Lake Show of its lackadaisical defensive attitude, a critical issue that starts and ends with Luka Doncic and LeBron James.
Despite his ever-annoying energy on the court (or perhaps because of it), Brooks wins everywhere he goes. He's been a big part of the Phoenix Suns' winning identity this season, and Lakers fans want that difference-making special sauce in purple and gold.
The problem for the Lakers is that they don't have a ton of appealing assets to theoretically offer the Suns for Brooks.
