4 for 1! It seems that the Lakers have earned, but in fact they have lost a lot

For the Lakers, compared to Russell, Reeves and Hachimura are a good decision.

First, performance. In the playoffs, Reeves shot 61.6% from the field and Hachimura 66.8%, both much higher than Russell's 51.6%, which shows that he has a better ability to grasp points. In other words, it helps the team more offensively.

Reeves, compared to not on the floor, can help the Lakers win 5.8 points per 100 rounds when he is on the floor, and Hachimura is 1.4 points. It's all about the existence of a win.

Russell at this point, when the team was on the floor, the team won by 0.1 points per 100 rounds. To put it ugly, the presence or absence of Russell does not hinder the Lakers' trend.

Second, the initiative. After Hachimura gave a qualification offer, he was restricted as a free agent, and Reeves had an "Arenas" clause, and it can be said that he can stay if he is willing to spend money. But Russell is a full free agent, and the Lakers don't have the initiative. To put it more bluntly, Russell can sign with any team that has space.

Of these two points, the first point is the main reason. I mean, because of the good performance, the Lakers will be determined to keep Reeves and Hachimura. As for Russell, because of his poor performance in the playoffs, management is not very determined to stay.

For these three players, though. Not only the fans, but also the media broke their hearts. According to the US media "FW" report, it is recommended that the Lakers make a 4-for-1 trade.

The specific plan is to sign Russell + Reeves + Hachimura + 29 years first-rounder, and exchange from the Pelicans for Brandon Ingram.

From a realistic point of view, there is still a possibility that this deal will happen. My understanding is that Ingram and Zion are not compatible. This season, the net efficiency was -0.4 when the two were present. It means that the team is losing when they are together.

Intuitively, the Lakers earned after the deal was completed.

Reason 1: Data. This season, Ingram averaged 24.7 points per game, 22nd in the league. Three field goal percentages 48.4%, 39%, 88.2%. From the point of view of hit rate, it can be inside and out.

Reason 2: Characteristics. Mid-range shots accounted for 27.7% and shooting rate 51.1%. In terms of offensive style, it is mainly singles with the ball, accounting for 1.23 points per round under 15.4%, better than 89% of players in the league.

Judging from the data, Ingram is in, able to face the frame singles; Retreat, there is a stable mid-range shot. In short, worthy of the existence of Durant Jr.

The combination of two points is a very good combat power. It can even be said that the Lakers have reformed the Big Three.

However, the above is only at first glance, if you look closely. I think the Lakers lost this 4-for-1 deal, and the loss was big.

Reason one: no ball. Admittedly, as mentioned earlier, Ingram has good ball holding ability, but his ability without the ball is relatively average. This season, 18% are off the ball and 42.7% are shooting.

If you don't have good off-ball ability, it's basically hard to fit in, or play well. After all, basketball is usually, especially when it comes to crunching moments, in James' hands. At this time, it was necessary to Tirives and Hachimura, both of whom had relatively good catch-and-shoot ability.

Reason two: resentment. You know, when it comes to a deal involving thick eyebrows, Ingram was abandoned by the Lakers. As the so-called good horse does not eat the grass, it is difficult to say whether this return will bring the ball with resentment. If not, if it is, then the Lakers are basically equivalent to self-destruction.

These two points, in my opinion, the first point is the main reason. After all, from the perspective of Schroder and Wei Shao, the Lakers' so-called third star does not have good ability without the ball, and the ending is a failure without exception.

Instead of this, it is better to leave Reeves and Hachimura. Although his fame and combat power are not as good as Ingram's, he has at least proved to be suitable for Zhan Mei.
