Brooks also said -- because hey, you don't want to be mean, right? -- that he feels Vanderbilt also has untapped potential. The latter question is particularly important to the Lakers, because Vanderbilt, who is under contract (essentially) for a couple more seasons, is currently a big drag on the payroll, making over $12 million next season without being a player JJ Redick likes to actually put on the floor. So is some of this on the coach? Is he not using Vanderbilt correctly? Is he too impatient? Should Redick work harder to make the Vando thing work? Or is this more a Vando problem, given that his skill sent hasn't improved at all since arriving in LA? What about a trade? Could the Lakers find one that didn't cost them more than one first rounder? Would teams demand two? Is that too much just to open up a roster spot they'd have no guarantee of filling? Would any transaction like that have to come with a definitive understanding of the roster improvement the Lakers would make? All of those Q's and more!
