That is my thought too. I like the signing of Schroeder there for both parties. Currently, it is an odd fit. But if they can move Westbrook for a piece or two, than they look interesting to me. Although, in the end it all depends on Lebron staying at a high level of play and being healthy and Davis being healthy. But if they could switch out Westbrook and picks for Turner & Buddy or maybe the Utah package (minus Conley now), than I could see a roadmap to a top four finish in the west. I wouldn't bet on it, but it would be a much better roster than last year...with Lebron being a year older.
For Schroeder, at least LA can offer cap room next year. So in theory, he could resign in LAL. I am sure he wants to get out of the 5 million and under contract. LAL gives him a good shot at that...although if they keep Westbrook things get a little more muddier.
