The offseason is the best opportunity to address the team's weaknesses, especially between the strong teams, almost always make the right amount of adjustments to the original roster, in a variety of ways, some signing, some trading, and some using the draft to get new talent.
Given the large amount of cash involved and the high risk of personnel turnover, managers will spend countless hours making the right decisions, and although cautious, there are still teams who struggle to end up in a mouthful of mud.
From contract negotiations to trade negotiations, from coach searches to talent competitions, there are uncertainties everywhere, but it is these uncertainties that make the offseason when there is no game to play can also arouse the curiosity and discussion of the audience.
Every team wants to win at the starting line, but how to win the starting advantage is another thorny issue, whether it is spending money or overdrawing the future, these arms races in open and secret battles all point to one goal:
Next season, Lao Tzu will win the championship.
According to the overall results, the eastern strong teams can be divided into three grades.
The first echelon is the Bucks, Green Army, Philadelphia, Heat, the second echelon is the Cavaliers, Knicks, Hawks, Nets, and the rest are all classified as the third echelon, and in this article, let's mainly talk about the four teams in the first echelon.
The Bucks and Heat are old wrongdoers and two extremes, the former who was a good player in the regular season but suffered a black eight in the playoffs, and the latter stumbled in the regular season and made consecutive good results in the playoffs.
The problem with the Bucks is not to rotate the lineup, but to face a strong team with a mature joint defense system, the alphabet brother is easy to fall into confusion, the data looks dazzling, but every time he is required to tear the defense at key moments, there is always a stubble.
So you will see that every year after entering the offseason, the Bucks' goal must be shooting first, even if you are in the interior position, you have to obediently run out to open up space, and it is bound to follow through to the end.
The Heat, who have the opposite record, are also coming in the opposite direction with the Bucks.
Riley doesn't care if you can open up the space, as long as the defensive awareness is still good, and the temperament is hard enough, let me come to Miami for trial, tall, short, fat and thin, the visitor does not refuse, and the door to employment is open at any time.
And before looking for rotation players, the Heat will also throw winks at the second and third leaders of each team, especially those stars surrounded by rumors, as long as there is a trade scandal, nine times out of ten, the Heat's name will appear on the list of suitors.
The other day offered Bill, after losing the competition, immediately turned to Lillard, the starting point is good, but because the chips in hand are too bleak, the possibility of the Heat pursuing success should be low, or even impossible.
Intuition tells me that the Heat will eventually choose to scratch the lottery on draft night, or set their sights on the Raptors who are about to start a rebuild, for the simple reason that you only have broken silver in your pocket, but you want to exchange my gold ingots, and to say that it is ugly is completely crazy.
What's more, Riley's offers have always been stingy, and the players the Heat have acquired in recent years are basically free agents naked signings, and Butler before and later Lowry have compressed their chips to the extreme, completely not giving opponents the opportunity to wool.
Having lost the Eastern Conference finals, the Celtics did their best to keep Brown as a priority plan.
It is impossible for the Green Army to release people, how can the perennial team break up the duo that has established a tacit chemical reaction, but instead take the risk to find a replacement in the free market and form another lineup?
Brown will probably not go, if you want money, only the Celtics can open a super top salary, ask for the ball, now the ball is actually a lot, the team is second only to Tatum, outside the team except to rebuild the team, no one will make him the boss.
In the gold yuan era, strong teams are basically gambling on overdraft salary space, the Celtics do not spend money this year, and there is nowhere to spend it in the next few years, and the Nuggets championship is gambled by letting go.
Pay the luxury tax, you may not get the championship, but if you don't, you will never get it.
As for Philadelphia, how to say, this team wants to win the championship, there is no hope of roster changes alone, and the star must be the first to make changes, and then qualified to talk about ideals.
Holding the ball high can help you earn personal honors, but this style of play really doesn't work in the playoffs, especially in the East, which likes muscle friction.
The Bucks & Green Army & Heat next door in order to prevent Embiid, the team has long left a hand, what Rowe, Adebayo, top defense and defense, just waiting for you Philadelphia to jump in.
Embiid's singles ability is indeed powerful, but there are many more powerful, Jordan and Kobe Bryant had to rely on transformation to cooperate with teammates to win the championship, not to mention the emperor.
Harden's words, will he go? It should not be, the rocket said that he wanted to buy someone but did not start, and the initiative was in the hands of Dengo himself, who left the team and said that he wanted to win the championship, but now the championship has not been won and wants to come back to get money, which is too contradictory.
Staying in Philadelphia is a win-win decision, otherwise you will always make such a fuss, and when you are older, you may not even find a stable foothold, and it will be too late to regret it.
