The Lakers and Warriors have a large fan base and have always been championship contenders before, but in the past two years, the overall competitiveness of the two teams in the NBA league has begun to decline, the main reason is that the core age of the team has slowly risen, the competitive state has also begun to decline, injuries have gradually increased, and the team's salary space is not very operable. However, the two teams will certainly not completely tear down the rebuild at the moment, and they have been trying to make changes to their rosters in the offseason, but so far with little success.
The Lakers must still be building a team with James and Davis as the core, and the offseason just changed coaches, rookie coach Redick took office, in fact, it is unrealistic to expect Redick to bring about reborn changes, and the embarrassing thing is that the Lakers coaching team has not yet been formed. As for the players, there is no progress at present, and at present, Bronny and James are only selected to form a father-son file, last year the Lakers were very active in the free market, but this year there has been no progress, many favorite players do not choose to join the Lakers, although the Lakers changed a lot last season, but did not receive good results, it is still very difficult to compete for the championship with Zhan Mei as the core, and there must be a third superstar to join, at least better than Russell.
The Warriors should have a big personnel change this year, the team's meritorious player Klay Thompson left, Paul only played for one year, and Looney on the inside may also leave, but the Warriors have strengthened Li Kaier, Thompson's departure is actually not a bad thing for the Warriors, after all, Thompson is not of much value to the Warriors now, and the competitive state has declined greatly after a major injury, and Thompson can also release a certain amount of salary space after leaving. Now the Warriors have only strengthened Lee Kyle, but his ability does not bring a big improvement to the Warriors, and the Warriors want to rush to the championship at the end of Curry's career, and they have to seek more reinforcements, at least at the star level.
