In mid July, the Lakers' 15 man lineup for next season was confirmed.
Centers: iveza zubartz, Steven Adams, Andrew Bogut.
Power forwards: Davis belstein, Al hofford, monterez Harrell.
Small forward: Vince Carter, PJ Tucker, Kevin Durant.
Shooting guard: Andre Robson, Devon Booker, Dwyane Wade.
Point guard: Guo Xu, Raymond Felton and Jason Terry.
The 15 of the Lakers have their own characteristics, and all of them can play a role. Next season's fringe must be zubaltz and belstein, who need to develop the League for a while.
Guo Xu, who is filming, made a phone call with Kupchak after seeing the news and said that he was very satisfied with the operation of the team. Apart from Adams, he did not recommend anyone else, Kupchak's eyes are very reliable.
Kupchak asked with a smile: "this lineup we can defend the title next season?"
"Don't be kidding. Your ambition is to defend the crown? With Durant, Wade, Adams joining, my goal is to win the championship, including the playoffs. I don't think there's a team that can beat the Lakers and wait to see the record Guo Xu said confidently.
In his opinion, the Lakers next season will be the All-Star team, the strongest team he has ever played with since he entered the league. It is even stronger than the Suns for five consecutive titles. Other stars can't win the Lakers.
Some veterans looked at the Lakers' lineup and were upset that they wanted to join.
Paul Pierce, for example, was so bad at the Clippers last season that no strong team could look up to him.
Al Jefferson failed to join the Lakers with a pay cut because of his strong attack and weak defense. He joined the Bucks three years after the Lakers filled. Next season bucks "the great" enbid resurfaces, Jefferson does his replacement, the Bucks did not renew the contract with Bogut.
Like David West, who has rejected the Lakers, Kupchak doesn't even give him a base salary, so he can stay cool. West had no choice but to go second, chose to join the warriors, 1.3 million a year.
Roy - Hebert this kind of "Gao Yuanyuan" wants to join the Lakers, 3.5 million a year joined the basketball nets.
The nets swept by the Lakers last season disintegrated and began to rebuild. Jamie's comments have finally come true. The team has made three starts at one go, and LeBron James will lead the team independently next season.
Today's most ferocious network management.
"Is the management of the nets a group of sb? With so much salary space, he didn't dig up superstars to help James. Aren't Durant, wesbrook, Derozan and Drummond all free men? If you dig two at random, won't it rise next season
Jamie's thinking is so wonderful. These people have never said that they are willing to join the nets and join James, but they think that as long as the team has salary space, they will definitely be able to recruit people to "assist" James. They think this is a real emperor, but actually James is just their emperor.
What's more, Jamie scolded Howard for being unfaithful and a three surnamed domestic slave.
"Howard is so immoral, he can sign first and then change if he wants to leave. As a result, he joined the Hawks directly and left nothing for the nets. If it wasn't for James, he would have been in the finals twice? He doesn't want his face! "
Howard jumped out of his last year's contract and accepted the Hawks' offer, and the Nets' management didn't match. You don't even match the contract. Sign it first and change your claws?
If match this contract, the nets want to take Howard to exchange for a strong player back is impossible. Howard is already a blue collar center with a serious decline. Other teams have to be brain disabled Jamie as manager to replace him with a star.
The most wonderful thing is that Jamie also scolded Wade.
After Wade left, James accepted an interview, described the turbulence of the nets team, but also talked about Wade. He made it clear: "wade leaves the nets, our strength will definitely decline significantly next season, the situation will become more difficult."
James said a word, last season's waste Wade has been the jammies hate. Someone said: "wade abandoned his brother and he didn't even have the courage to continue to compete with James. What's so great about this kind of person even if he goes to the Lakers to win the championship? "
Well, the huddle team became the Laker, and Jamie despised it.
But did Wade not have the courage to compete with James? He knew he was going to lose, and James's top salary was wildly touted, and he took the bottom salary to back the pot for the defeat.
The most wonderful thing is that Jamie also scolded Durant.
The reason is that there are media reports that Durant is likely to join the nets and James to fight the Lakers. The reason is that Durant doesn't want to stay in the thunder, he wants to join a team to compete for the championship, the only choice is the warriors and the nets.
At that time, everyone didn't think Durant would choose the Lakers and Guo Xu as teammates. He could only be a little brother, not equal. Team mate with James is brother basketball. Although they are not familiar with each other, they will not play together during the holidays.James is all brothers in the world, so is the parallel world. Even if the warrior shaved his head, he would not forget to call Durant and draymond green brothers. Maybe they could form a group one day.
Durant's closest reporter also called on social media: "Durant is very likely to join the nets.". So everyone believed it, though Durant never thought about it.
The jammies were angry. "Durant is really insidious. He hung the net and didn't say no clearly. He suddenly joined the Lakers without warning. If the Lakers don't have him, they will be the champion. How much credit can he make to defend the championship after he joins the enemy? This kind of star who joins the team in the same district is determined to be black all his life
They didn't watch Durant's news. When they went to the enemy, they cited James as an example. Without James, he couldn't make up his mind.
James also jumped out of the contract, is to limit free players, no matter what contract other teams open, the nets will match, he can't go, want to sign and then change will not let him go.
The nets need him to attract fans and maintain home attendance. Since he joined, the nets have received more attention than the Knicks at the bottom.
Of course, the nets can not let James fight alone, four years 100 million signed warriors center Brooke Lopez. The management felt that the signing was more cost-effective. Lopez has won two consecutive titles with the warriors and is experienced in the playoffs.
Among the star centers, Lopez's price is not too expensive because he has weaknesses. He has a good attack, a range beyond the three-point line, and can attack the basket with the ball, but his speed is too slow and his defense is not easy to prevent pick and roll.
In order to stabilize James, the nets have to sign when they know that Lopez has defects, otherwise they don't even have a qualified center. It's a problem whether James can make it to the playoffs next season.
The nets dig the corner of the warriors, so that the depth of the warriors' lineup has also declined, offending the warriors fans will indirectly help the Lakers play a better regular season record next season.
Another strong team, the Spurs, didn't make a big move in the summer, just signed David Lee at the base salary. Veteran Duncan announced retirement, David Lee's strength is obviously not as good as Duncan, he has always been a black hole in defense.
The Spurs have a reinforcement option on the outside, and Kobe's desire to join was rejected by the management, even though their outside strength has declined significantly. Popovich doesn't know how to arrange Kobe's ball right. He doesn't seem to be suitable for starting or substituting.
