The Lakers officially announced the acquisition of Jeremy Lin on Sunday. "This trade allows us to acquire a solid player who will make us a better team, as well as draft picks to improve our team," said GM Mitch Kupchak. The Lakers received Jeremy Lin, the Rockets 2015 first-round pick, and a future second-round selection. The Rockets acquire the rights to overseas player Sergei Lishchuk. Lin will likely be the starting point guard in LA, and with the limited offensive options at the Lakers disposal, it's possible he improves a bit on last year's averages of 12.5 points, 4.1 assists, and 1.0 steals per game.
