5.7 million, signed with the Lakers! Congratulations to Zhan Mei, add strong support, and you are the strongest helper after reform

Although the NBA is still a small-ball era and the three-point shot is important, the inside and forward players play an increasing role in the game. Over the past five seasons, NBA regular-season MVPs have been interior stars: Alphabet, Jokic and Embiid, which also shows that super interior players are increasingly important to win and lose games. The Lakers are not bad inside, because there is a thick eyebrow brother, but the Lakers do not have enough internal linemen, and there is a lack of inside linemen who help the thick eyebrow brother share the pressure. If there are one or two strong interior linemen who can help the thick-eyed brother share the pressure of playing, then the thick-eyed brother will play more comfortably and can better maintain his health. 5.7 million in two years, signed with the Lakers! Congratulations to Zhan Mei, add strong support, and you are the strongest helper after reform.

The Lakers signed a new signing, Pelinka got Wood to sign, who agreed to join the Lakers for a two-year $2.7 million contract, a base salary of $2.7 million in the first year, and $3 million in the second year, and Wood has a player option. In fact, Wood is not for nothing, the Lone Rangers want Wood to return with a base salary extension, and the Heat Riley wants Wood to join with a base salary to enhance the interior and forward. However, after careful consideration, Wood finally chose to sign with the Lakers with a base salary and join James and Brother Thick Eyebrows, after all, the Lakers have one of the largest ball markets in the United States, and play next to James and Brother Thick Eyebrows, and the traffic and attention are full.

In fact, Wood's offensive strength is excellent, even if he plays as a substitute, he still averaged 16.6 points + 7.3 rebounds per game last season. NBA experts believe that Wood has excellent finishing ability at the basket and also has a stable outside shooting ability, his basket shooting rate is as high as 63.8%, and his three-point shooting rate is as high as 40%. Last season, the Lakers shot just 34 percent from three-point range (25th in the league). Wood, Prince, Vincent and other new signings, their three-point shooting ability is quite good, which is a perfect reinforcement.

Last season, Wood violently blocked All-Star interior lineman Porzingis, and Embiid singled it out to make it 2+1, singled out Gobert for a three-point shot. It's clear that Wood's offensive approach is indeed excellent, and the Lakers have brought in five new signings this summer, and Wood is averaging the highest points per game. Last season, the Lakers and the Lone Rangers played a Christmas game, facing the Lakers, Wood's 30 points + 8 rebounds + 7 assists + 4 steals + 2 blocks were very sharp. Wood's biggest problem is still in defense, his defensive habits are not good, easy to be deceived by opponents, and Wood's basket protection is relatively poor. Last season, Wood averaged 1.1 blocks per game, but his defensive efficiency was only 116.5.

In the past two seasons, NBA players over 2.08 meters have made 100 three-point shots per season, and only four (Vucevic, Wood, Jalen Jackson, Markkanen). Last season, NBA players averaged at least 20 points + 2 blocks per game when they started, and only Bushy and Wood did. NBA experts believe that if Wood can change his mind, change his defensive habits, rehabilitate himself, and actively defend, then he is the strongest helper around James. Moreover, both Wood and Hayes are players who can play both center and power forward, and they can help the thick eyebrows reduce the pressure on the inside.

James and Thick Eyebrows have more helpers, Old Jen and Thick Eyebrows can rest more and stay healthy, and the Lakers will have more drama in the playoffs and championships. Both Schroder and Monk joined the Lakers at base salary, played good numbers and performances, and then got big contracts in free agency. Wood should also be gilded like this, joining the Lakers with a base salary, striving to perform well next to James, helping Jamei compete for the championship together, and striving to get a big contract next summer offseason.
