The Los Angeles Lakers have cycled through 12 different starting lineups this season as they've struggled to find rotations and a style that maximizes their roster.

The Lakers thought the combination of Russell Westbrook and LeBron James would lead them to operate successfully by playing fast in the open court. 

Dave McMenamin of ESPN writes that sources have indicated "the injuries and inconsistency have led the coaching staff to put everything on the table and ponder whether they have to change their high-paced plan on the fly."

"The Lakers focus too much on the names versus the games of each person," one prominent agent told ESPN after the loss to the Trail Blazers.
