is just like in previous years. There are still a lot of rumors about the Los Angeles Lakers in this offseason because they may lose some role players, such as Rajon Rondo, Pope, and the Lakers are the defending champion team. , While they are attractive enough, it does need some reinforcement. In recent rumors, Chris Paul and Westbrook are also related to the Lakers, only considering their salary, contract, Age and style of play, these two are actually part of the "smoke bomb"...
So, under the current rumors, which guards are the Lakers' best pursuit goals? On November 14th, Beijing time, the US media "lakeshowlife" named the Lakers’ four major guard goals in this year’s offseason. They have made a ranking. Let’s see which guard is the Lakers. The defender that should be pursued most this offseason?
4. DeMar DeRozan
When talking about whether he ever thought about playing for the Lakers, DeRozan once said that he had thought about it, because the Lakers are his hometown team, if the Lakers would feel Need him, then he will feel crazy. Obviously we can already see DeRozan's attitude towards the Lakers. When the Spurs put him on the shelves, if the Lakers need him and trade him, then DeRozan Will definitely be willing to play...
DeRozan likes the Lakers, which is a good thing, but for the Lakers with LeBron James and Anthony Davis, they already have a stable output point. DeRozan can indeed provide a stable score of 20+ in a single game, but this is not what the Lakers urgently need. DeRozan is one of the worst three-pointers in the league. In the past two seasons, DeRozan Zan made 16 of 80 three-pointers and a 20% shooting percentage. DeRozan is a good player, but he is not suitable for the current Lakers. This is probably the reason why the US media placed him at the bottom of this article.
3. After Derrick Rose
suffered a major injury, Rose’s athletic ability has declined significantly. Fortunately, he accepted himself as the sixth man in the Pistons. He was 19- In the 20th season, the regular season averaged 18.1 points + 49% shooting rate + 2.4 rebounds + 5.6 assists. The current Rose is obviously not better than the current DeRozan, but if you recognize Rose in this way, it may be Bede. Rozan is more suitable for the Lakers guard!
Ross can top the position of Pope, he can start or play as a substitute. He will be a big output point besides Zhan Huang and Brother Thick Eyebrows. He can also take on some roles similar to Rondo to organize the offense. The important thing is that Rose will obviously be cheaper than DeRozan, which can give the Lakers more room for operation. Yes, his annual salary next season is $20.6 million cheaper than DeRozan, which is really not small. A number...
2. After Victor Oladipo
suffered an injury, Oladipo has not yet recovered his peak level. Since his current contract has one year left, the outside world believes that walking The Lakers should not choose to continue to hold him. After all, his annual salary for the 19-20 season is already US$21 million. Oladipo’s current ability does not match this salary, but for the Lakers, the contract period Oladipo with only one season left, that is what they can gamble on!
In a healthy state, Oladipo has excellent defense and offense. He is one of the best two-way guards in the league. Under Vogel's coaching, his defense may be further strengthened, although he is not A three-point shooter, but in Oladipo’s career, he has averaged 35% of his three-point shots per game. The Lakers can get a "third star" if they win, and they can even lose. Getting a good sixth man is a good fit no matter what, isn't it?
1. Zhu-Holiday
Holiday and Oladipo in a healthy state, the defensive level is close, choose Holiday without betting, after all Holiday will be healthier than Oladipo, Huo While Ledy has excellent defense, he also had 35.3% of his 3-pointers and 6.7 assists in the 19-20 season. He is a qualified shooter + playmaker. It is no exaggeration to say that the Lakers who got Holiday. The team has the third three star. He is still the former teammate of Brother Nuo Mei. Needless to say, this chemistry reaction, HollerDee is a very suitable choice for the Lakers...
Of course, easy to use is often expensive. Holiday's salary in the 20-21 season is 26.13 million US dollars. It is not easy for the Lakers to get him, and once the Lakers If the team gets Holiday, then there is a possibility of "Los Angeles Pelicans" and "New Orleans Lakers". After all, Kyle Kuzma is the Lakers' best young tradable asset right now, isn't it? (By the way, Hart, Ingram, and Ball are currently on the Pelicans.)
