The Los Angeles Lakers in the NBA playoffs in the 23-24 season, it is likely to stop in the first round, this is the last thing James wants to see but can not do anything about the year, after all, facing the Denver Nuggets led by Jokic! At present, the series score is 1-3, the Lakers are behind, for this, the Purple and Gold undoubtedly need to worry, not only about the difficulty of the playoff journey but also about James' contract extension in the offseason. In terms of the team's current salary space, they can't meet James' contract needs of more than $50 million a year. For this reason, NBA reporter Bill Simmons gave a prediction.
James will be hungry to go to the Dallas Mavericks because Irving is there! Doncic is leading the team to better and better in the league, and they already have the potential to become a championship but still need to strengthen the roster. In the case of salary space far better than the Lakers, they can also give James a satisfactory contract, which is why in my opinion, James will choose the Mavericks this summer, Irving is there, and the salary contract is still expected to win the championship! In Simmons' view, the Mavericks will be James's next stop, and the previous transaction of Dream Green also involved the Mavericks, and there have been such revelations recently.
The premise of the revelation is that the Warriors are looking for changes, including sending away Dream Chasers around Curry + Kuminga + Sister Bo to build a team that can be competitive in the coming year. The U.S. media also gave a speculation that Dream Green might go to the Mavericks, and the specific trade value is expected to revolve around Hardaway Jr. + Josh Green. If the Warriors want to change the lineup and make the team's locker room atmosphere better, maybe Dream Chasing will be traded, and this will undoubtedly give Doncic the opportunity to form the Big Four, you must know that what they are currently missing is forward and defense, if James and Dream join hands in Dallas and play next to Irving and Doncic, it will be an unsolvable Big Four!
