On November 9th, according to a well-known American journalist Sean Deveney, the Lakers hope to try to sign in the free market, and veterans who are willing to cut salaries and are suitable for the team will strengthen the lineup. Many fans of
heard this, thinking about where there is such a good thing, there is a feeling of empty gloves white wolf! But looking back over the past so many years, whether it is the Heat, the Cavaliers or the current Lakers, as long as the team where James is, there are always some old players willing to join with a salary cut.
In 2010, the old captain Haslem gave up the 5-year $34 million contract from the Mavericks and the Nuggets in order to stay on the team to assist the Big Three. This is why Haslem can’t play today, but the Heat still Willing to spend money every year to keep him in the team.
Mike Miller, Sean Battier, Ray Allen, Richard Jefferson, Rondo, etc., James always attracts these players to come and compete with him for the championship. The important thing is that they all realized their dream of champions.
At this point, Leonard is really inferior to James. After deciding not to stay with the Raptors last year, Kali contacted some free agents including Irving and asked them if they would like to get a ball together. The team played, and George agreed to him in the end. The Clippers also paid a few chips including potential new stars. George was traded from the Thunder. However, the Clippers’ reinforcement seems to end here, and then the little Morris. And Reggie Jackson doesn't seem to be a great addition to the team.
In this offseason, the Clippers did not consider the issue of signing players with a minimum salary at all. They are willing to spend a lot of money to sign Rondo for the championship, or get Holiday's contract through a deal. Pierce is right. In addition to being a good player, James is also a good "GM". It seems that when Ray Allen went to Kerr and went to James to hurt Pierce and the Green Army. .
Sean Deveney later added that the Lakers had a special case of a middle class valued at $9.8 million in the offseason. The team did not want to use the money to give it to one person, but wanted to use the money to bring in multiple names. Players.
According to league executives, the Lakers’ first goal is Ibaka, which means that the Lakers want to use a veteran’s basic salary contract for a player of $23.27 million last season.
After playing for the Raptors, Ibaka gradually transformed from an inside strongman to the best spatial fourth in the league. In the 19-20 season, he averaged 16 points, 8.3 rebounds and three-point shooting. 39.8%. With Gasol sitting at the basket, he does not need to be involved in the inside defense too much. The average block per game has also dropped to 0.8 times, but this does not mean that Ibaka has lost this ability. .
If the Lakers get Ibaka, it can greatly relieve Davis' pressure on the inside. Whether he can come to the Lakers in the end really depends on Ibaka's personal wishes. Maybe James will lobby himself!
