LeBron James’ decision not to opt out of his player option led fans and analysts to believe that the LA Lakers would approach the offseason with urgency. However, their inactivity so far has left many baffled. Their inability to make roster upgrades has led Chris Haynes and other NBATV panelists mocking Rob Pelinka and Co.During an NBATV segment, Haynes and the panel couldn’t help but poke fun at the Lakers’ passive approach. While reviewing offseason moves of teams across the league, Haynes dished out a sarcastic jab towards the Purple & Gold.“I think by tomorrow, I will say that I like what the Lakers have done,” Haynes trolled.A co-panelist chimed in, criticizing the team’s lack of depth, particularly at the center position. The clip quickly went viral on social media, with frustrated Lakers fans expressing their disappointment, with one tweeting:"Signing Chris Paul to play center". @jordydagoat_LINKSigning Chris Paul to play center #trusttheprocessHatim @TimbelsinewLINKEveryone’s linked to the Lakers in the offseason… and then no one ever actually goes.

Despite having a clear need to strengthen their center position, they failed to act promptly. As a result, they missed out on two of their key targets, Clint Capela and Brook Lopez.Lopez opted to sign with the Lakers' rivals, the LA Clippers, on a two-year, $18 million deal, while Capela returned to the Houston Rockets, the team who had drafted him in 2014, signing a three-year, $21.5 million contract.Deandre Ayton is now the Lakers' only realistic option remaining. If they fail to land him, they might be forced to enter the regular season with Jaxon Hayes as their starting center.
