It's finally done! After James' 2-year 101 million contract renewal, the terrible facts were exposed? What's going on? It's incredible! #头条创作挑战赛 ##头条首发大赛#
According to US media reports, James completed the contract renewal with the Lakers, and the contract amount is 101 million for 2 years, which is 2.65 million lower than the maximum salary, which makes the Lakers' total salary 45,000 lower than the second local tyrant line, and gets a lot of room for operation!
James made good on his promise to take a pay cut, but the Lakers have missed too many players one after another. For example, Harden, Thompson, Wallan, Hield and DeRozan, who just joined the Kings.
So far, the Lakers management has not done much. Just signed a rookie coach, Redick, and two rookie players, one of whom is James' eldest son, Bronny.
But Bronny's summer league debut just had a very dismal performance! He scored only 4 points, didn't score a single three-pointer, and made very poor free throws, with a plus/minus of only -15.
But teams in the West are making up for it, and although the Clippers have lost George, they have also gained a lot of quality players. The Mavericks snatched Thompson from the Warriors at a very low price and formed the quasi-Big Three.
The Kings also traded DeRozan from the Bulls for a very low price, forming a two-gun combination with Fox. Although the Warriors lost Thompson, they also gained strong players such as Hield and Lee Kyle.
And the east is even crazier! The 76ers got George from the Clippers, formed the Big Three with Embiid and Maxey, and then got the powerful Martin from the Heat.
The Knicks, on the other hand, got Bridges, who was both offensive and defensive, from the Nets, and kept Anunoby, who was strong defensively. The defending champions, Celtic, on the other hand, have left the winning team.
However, the Lakers have not been able to get big-name players for a long time, which can only be said that the management is a bit derelict in their duties. Not only that, but they also lost 3-and-D player Prince, but gave Christie, who had a dismal performance last season, 32 million.
I wonder what Lakers management thinks? Although James has taken a salary cut, the incompetent Lakers management may live up to his hard work, do you think so?
