Sometimes, a solution is obvious. That doesnt mean its necessarily easy.NBA teams can be faced with the same dilemma.

Suppose your relationship isnt working. People will suggest that you should leave your partner. That may be obvious but is it easy?

For example, look at the Los Angeles Lakers. Fans across the league know they ought to move Russell Westbrook. That doesnt mean its easy to do.

In fact, the Lakers would likely have to attach a first-round pick or two in order to get a deal done.

If this team is going to go that route, theyd better make sure theyre getting the right return.
