Are the Rockets, Lakers and Celtics planning a tripartite deal? What are the involvement of Whitmore and Porzingis?

NBA officially announced the first, second and third lineups of the All-Season. The best team was a popular choice, with Mitchell, Alexander, Tatum, Jokic and Antetokounmpo being elected with high votes. There is not much suspense in the Best Second Team, and Curry, Brunson, Edwards, James, and Mobley Jr. were successfully shortlisted. The All-A-3 team is quite controversial. Halliburton performed poorly in the regular season, averaging only 18.6 points per game, but he was able to share the third lineup with Cningham, Jaylen Williams, Harden and Towns. Rockets starter Shin Kyung's data performance is better than Halliburton, and the Rockets ranked second in the West, but Shin Kyung failed to make the best lineup list, which made Houston fans feel dissatisfied. In addition, the US media also spoofed the worst team of the season, with Jaylen Green, Bill, Paul George, Kuzma and Rozier becoming the biggest victims.

Recently, the US media FW suggested that the Lakers management will offer Celtic center Porzingis in the offseason this summer. As the Timberwolves were eliminated from the first round of the playoffs, the Lakers' weak inside strength has gradually been exposed. General Manager Pelinka hopes to solve the problem of the No. 5 position through one operation. The media provided a three-party trading offer to the Lakers, Rockets and Celtics. The specific trading plan is:
1. The Lakers gave Hachimura Hachimura + Gabe Vincent + Dalton Kneckett + the Lakers' first round pick in 2029 to get Kristaps Porzingis;
2. The Rockets gave Cameron Whitmore to get Dalton Kneckett;
3. The Celtics gave Kristaps Porzingis to get Hachimura + Gabe Vincent + Cameron Whitmore + the Lakers' first round pick in 2029.

This is a deal that the Lakers' management is willing to make. Porzingis was selected as an All-Star, with a height of 2.18 meters and a wingspan of 2.29 meters making him stand out among all the players. This season, averaging 28.8 minutes per game, scoring 19.5 points, 6.8 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.5 blocks, and a three-point shooting percentage of 41.2%. As a No. 5 player, it is extremely rare to have such efficient mid- and long-distance shooting performances, and his addition can create huge breakthrough space for Doncic and James, just like the help he helped the Double Tenhua when he was with the Celtics. Porzingis' jump shot after receiving the ball is extremely stable and can convert Doncic's pass into assists.

Rockets management was disappointed with Whitmore's performance this season, especially when he blatantly contradicted head coach Uduka and wanted to get more playing time, but in the end things went against their wishes and were thrown into the cold palace by Uduka. The White Devil is a small forward with top athletic talent who can benefit a lot from Tatum and Jaylen Brown. The Rockets management hopes to introduce an outside pitcher, and it is best that he can react with the Rockets' seven sons. Kneckett is only 24 years old this year. He scored 9.1 points, 2.8 rebounds and 0.8 assists in his first NBA season. His performance even surpassed the Rockets' Shepard. Knector's playing style is selfless, he handles the ball decisively, and has stable mid- and long-distance shooting. Compared to the White Devil who plays alone, he is more suitable for the current tactical system of the Rockets.
