The Lakers' offseason operation is basically nearing its end, and Dennis Schroeder's encounter in the free agent market may help the Lakers complete a first-and-then-replace operation, which may be the lakers' last operation in the offseason. In addition to getting Russell Westbrook, the Lakers' offseason operations are simply addictive, and players such as Dwight Howard, Trevo Ariza, and Wayne Ellington have all played for the Lakers. Of course, the Lakers still have a back grass that they want to eat, but unfortunately they can't eat it.
The backflower is Danny Green, the Lakers signed Green in 2019, after the 19-20 season, the Lakers sent Green away. In the 2021 offseason, Green became a full free agent, and the Lakers had the idea of signing Green back, but Philadelphia offered Green a 2-year, $20 million contract, leaving the good 3D player, and the Lakers lost the opportunity to sign Green back.
Green is a model of the league's second-round show counterattack, since entering the league in 2009, Green has received three contracts with an annual salary of tens of millions, and the total salary of his career has exceeded 100 million US dollars, the reason why Philadelphia has once again sent Green tens of millions of annual salaries, or look at his performance on the defensive end and outside the three-point line, from this point of view, the Lakers really did not find Green's instruction manual.
In the 19-20 season, Green played in 68 games for the Lakers, averaging 8 points, 3.3 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 1.3 steals per game, averaging 1.8 three-pointers per game, shooting 36.7% from three-point range, while in the 20-21 season for Philadelphia, Green averaged 9.5 points, 3.8 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 1.3 steals per game, averaging 2.5 three-pointers per game, and shooting 40.5% from three-point range. Green's role in the team is to defend and shoot three-pointers, putting aside the performance on the defensive end, Green's performance outside the three-point line after coming to Philadelphia is really much better than the Lakers.
For Green, catching the ball after running without the ball is his main means of finishing on the offensive end. In the 68 games he played for the Lakers in the 19-20 season, Green shot 274 times outside the three-point line and hit 101 times, shooting 36.9%, while in the 69 games played for Philadelphia in the 20-21 season, Green made 363 three-point shots and hit 152 times, shooting 41.9%. Comparing the data, it is not difficult to find that in terms of three-point catches and shots, Philadelphia's Green is better than the Lakers' Green, is the passing of Ben Simmons, Joe Embiid and others more comfortable than the passing of LeBron James, Anthony Davis and others?
Green's career is relatively tortuous, and he gradually found his position after meeting Greg Popovich in the later period, his career three-point shooting rate reached 40.1%, and he can average 1.9 three-pointers per game. It seems that the Lakers really did not find Green's instruction manual. However, it may also be that Green is a little overwhelmed after getting an annual salary of 15 million, since 2015, Green's average annual salary is basically about 10 million, and his average annual salary during the Lakers period reached $15 million.
