Schaus LA Lakers architect of 32 game streak
Los Angeles Lakers coach turned executive Fred Schaus notes seven of the 10 Lakers were acquired by trade or purchase as the club aims to extend its unbeaten run to 32 games with a showdown in Cleveland against the Cavaliers. He cites a 1969 Wilt Chamberlain trade as pivotal, and explains the three man committee approach to deals. The piece highlights key trades shaping the roster, including Goodrich, Hairston, Erickson, Riley, Trapp, Robinson, and Ellis, and underscores Schaus's conviction that the streak is astonishing but not endless.
