The Lakers won this year’s championship. Rumors about the Lakers' reinforcements are endless. This is not surprising. After all, the Nets and Warriors will rise next season. If the Lakers do not reinforce the current lineup, they will be next year. The hope of defending the title will be very slim.
What the Lakers lack most is definitely a guard who can hold the ball and hit the pick-and-roll with thick eyebrows. Such a guard is only Dragic in the free market this year. He is likely to renew his contract with the Heat, so the Lakers really want to make a difference. The change must be done through trading, so let’s take a look at the guards who may enter the trading market this year: Paul; Holiday; Dinwiddie; Rose; Gordon; Oladipo; Richardson; Shi Rod; DeRozan, Blood Cloth , these levels are fairly acceptable, and the rest are general or obvious loopholes, so I won’t repeat them. The chips that the Lakers can come up with are: Danny Green; Kuzma; Tucker; in several rounds.
Paul currently has two years left on his contract, next season's salary is 41.36 million US dollars, 2021-22 season is 44.21 million US dollars of player options. I believe that Paul wants to go to the Lakers. A star at Paul's level definitely has the pursuit of a championship. I also believe that the Lakers need Paul. Paul can almost make up for all the Lakers’ current shortcomings; but this deal is really too difficult. It is almost impossible for the Lakers to complete the transaction with the Thunder from the perspective of balance of funds. What's more, the satisfaction of the bargaining chip must be considered. If the transaction is desired, it is necessary to attract a third party-but the three-party transaction is too complex to involve the interested parties. Too much... For this impossible operation, it would not consume too much brain cell YY.
Holledi . This player is so popular. I think all teams that need a record will ask. The Lakers' bargaining chips are definitely not good among the competitors. After all, the first round of signing was in the trade for the Pelicans. The players are already used up. I personally think that at least one expiring contract + one first-round lottery chip will be required to trade for Holiday. If someone raises the price, it will not be higher. The Lakers can weigh their own Bargaining chips, I am afraid it is not enough.
Dinwiddie. Z4z The Nets should be reluctant to trade Dinwiddie to the Lakers. What it means to trade a pick-and-roll master to the Lakers should be clear. Although the Nets also lack forward and wing defenders, you have to think about Danny. Green + Kuzma's promotion of the Nets or Dinwiddie's promotion of the Lakers is greater, of course, this deal is not completely impossible, if the Nets really think it is a win-win operation. But then again, why can't the Nets trade Holiday with Dinwiddie and Loft as the core?
Ross and Schroder put together and said that the overall level and positioning of these two players are similar. Both players are positioned as the sixth man. Both have one-year contract left. Schroder's contract is more. There are 1550W, Rose is more affordable and only 760W, but they are both limited in their own level. Although they can make up for the vacancy of the Lakers, but if Danny Green is used to trade, the three-point and defensive problems will be exposed again. , The Lakers may not be willing to do this trading method of tearing down the east wall to make up the west wall, and the opponent may not be willing to ask Danny Green. In the eyes of the Thunder and Pistons, a first-round pick is the most important.
Oladipo , a career-high score of 47 points. Oladipo is most likely if there is a deal, because he seems unwilling to renew his contract with the Pacers. The contract expires and there is no star who has promised to renew. The transaction value is relatively low, and it is very likely that there will be a wave of bargaining to win Audi. But Audi also has his huge hidden dangers, that is, his level of uncertainty is too high. If he does not recover well, his ball-holding core play style may not have a positive effect. The Lakers are currently at a stable stage. For risk-conscious consumers, the Lakers may not be able to take advantage of a team that trades in the market with a mentality like the Bucks. In short, Audi has advantages and disadvantages for everyone. To take risks, it depends on whether the Lakers are willing.
