LA Lakers trade rumors: Eric Bledsoe, Jordan Crawford, Michael Beasley, and Chris Douglas-Roberts

What's next for The Lakers? Facebook

NBA may currently be off season, but the LA Lakers appeared to be extremely busy building their team if the trade rumors are true.

The team has already closed the deal with three promising players, including Ed Davis, Carlos Boozer, and Jeremy Lin. However, the fans are not yet convinced if that is enough to help Kobe Bryant bring the team to the Playoffs this year.

Some of the most sought after NBA stars already signed up for other teams, such as Carmelo Anthony for the New York Knicks, as well as Kevin Love who chose to go to the Minnesota Timberwolves.

The fans were actually hoping that the team could manage to take former Miami Heat star LeBron James from the Cleveland Cavaliers, but the deal did not push through and James opted to go back to the Cavaliers.

Still, there are a lot of free agent options that the team can choose from in order to be a solid line up, including Chris Douglas-Roberts, Jordan Crawford, Michael Beasley, as well as Eric Bledsoe, who is still considered to be in the market even if there are talks that he would be probably signing up with the Phoenix Suns soon.

Based on reports published in Pro Basketball Talk, the team is considering an offer sheet for Bledsoe, yet they already knew that the Suns would probably match their offer, that is why they decided not to extend it anymore. The Lakers went on to develop their roster and signed Boozer to add power to their line-up.

The team also included Nick Young and Wesley Johnson back to the line-up.

Head coach Byron Scott said that he is planning to give a new identity for the Lakers, and is planning to get back the old championship winning plays of one of the league's most popular franchises.

Regarding Steve Nash, the team has yet to find a suitable trade partner for the veteran player who had been injured over the last two years. The Lakers still need him and Bryant to work together to be able to bring the franchise to the Playoffs.
