With the end of the All-Star Game, the final stages of the regular season began to play quickly, the Suns, Warriors, Bulls, 76ers and other championship-winning teams definitely hope to maintain their strength, and the Nets, Lakers and other pseudo-strong teams temporarily aim to enter the playoffs. The author believes that the pattern of the league is clear, it is difficult for the lower ranked teams to achieve a counterattack in the playoffs, and the championship should be produced in the championship team. If the Lakers, who have no trading operations, can win the championship, it is unfair to the team that makes trade reinforcements, including James, who can see that the Lakers have no hope this season, so they boldly talk about their future choices.
The author is convinced that all the trading news about James now is fake news, and James will not passively use it as a trading chip, why do you say so? Because James believes that any team that signs him must continue to pay the top salary contract. Fans may not understand why a 37-year-old veteran should pay a maximum salary, but according to James's vision, he will not accept a basic salary contract until the age of 40. James has always been so confident that as the first person on active duty, even a superstar who sits on an equal footing with Jordan, he will not be traded. However, James' partner thick eyebrows appeared on the trade list, which is a key operation for the Lakers to change.
This information about thick eyebrows to be traded comes from an executive who did not want to be named, and when I saw such a source, I would first doubt the authenticity of the news, because if I got accurate information, why hide my name? The deal the executive was referring to was an exchange between the Lakers and the Bulls for a supergiant swap, with the Lakers only needing to send thick eyebrows and the Bulls sending All-Star guard DeRozan and Kobe White. The deal is an absolute win-win on paper, with the Bulls getting the top inside line and James finally welcoming the coveted DeRozan. I will also talk about my own views and judge whether it is feasible.
As we all know, Brother Thick Brow is a native of Chicago, and playing for his hometown is one of his dreams. The author believes that it is not necessarily the Lakers who take the initiative to ask for the trade of thick eyebrows, but the thick eyebrows may take the initiative to propose to go, if they really want to go, it must be the best policy for playing for the hometown team. I don't know if the Lakers fans recognize it, but the author wants to point out that the Lakers are the comfort zone of thick eyebrows now, and it has been two seasons that they can't contribute to the ideal attendance, and a thick eyebrow that can't maintain health is not even eligible for the All-Star Game, so his All-Star Game participation is stuck at eight times, and the number of fans voting for him this season is pitifully small.
From the combination point of view, thick eyebrows and Lavin's partner is more balanced, thick eyebrows if playing for the bulls, the attitude is certainly more positive, at least not in the training camp during the body out of shape. I remember that Thick Brow personally admitted to playing for the Bulls, this is the opportunity for him to leave the team, and next season is the best opportunity. On the other hand, the Lakers, without thick eyebrows, the inside line is a vacuum state, got DeRozan and White, so that the strength of the backcourt reached the strongest in the league. As a result, James may be fixed on the inside line, but it is very much in line with Vogel's five-small system of play.
The author believes that as long as DeRozan is in the Lakers, James will not hesitate to hand over the ball, DeRozan's current breakthrough and mid-range shooting is already the strongest in the league, and the continuous scoring ability at key times is the performance of the big heart. Compared to Westbrook's pull-over at a critical moment, DeRozan is undoubtedly far superior to Westbrook. It is not ruled out that DeRozan can win the regular season MVP this season, and the Lakers sent away the super giant in exchange for the MVP, how is not a loss-making business. Overall, although the deal is not feasible, the Bulls have no reason to send DeRozan away, unless they want to correct Lavin as the core, but it can still be expected that DeRozan and James can one day join forces to form the strongest dream partner in the league.
