Annual salary of 10 million! The team put it on the trading shelves. What can the low-end version of Holiday bring to the Lakers?

Due to astronomical luxury taxes, the probability of Holiday leaving the Celtics is increasing this summer.

Where will Holiday's next home be?

It is certain that it will definitely not be the Lakers. It is very important that the Celtics and the Lakers are "fighting" - since the 21st century, the two teams except Ritchie Fox and Gary Payton have not yet traded.

At the same time, according to the NBA China official website, the Bulls are expected to place Langzo Ball, who has an annual salary of 10 million yuan, on the trading shelves.

Compare Holiday and Ball. In terms of defensive enthusiasm, Holiday averaged 3.5 times interfered with opponent's shooting and Ball's 3.3 times; in terms of defensive prediction, Holiday averaged 2.1 cutoffs and 0.02 times caused opponent's offensive fouls, and Ball's two numbers were 2.4 times and 0.01 times respectively; in terms of defensive efficiency, Holiday limited his opponent's shooting rate from 46.5% to 44.4%, and Ball limits his opponent's shooting rate from 45.8% to 44.3%.

To sum up three points, the two are on the defensive end - to a certain extent, they feel like looking in the mirror.

However, on the offensive end, Holiday has the ability to hold the shot that Ball does not have.

Breaking through the ball with 295 breakthroughs, Holiday made 126 shots, with a shooting rate of 52.4%;

2, Ball made 84 breakthroughs, with a shooting rate of 24 shots, with a shooting rate of 45.8%.

Based on this, I think Ball can be defined as a low-end version of Holiday. To be precise, the two are on the defensive end, but the difference is on the offensive end.

Considering that Ball was put on the trading shelves, if Pelinka traded, what would the former bring to the Lakers?

From a defensive perspective, in addition to being able to lead the backcourt, Ball, who is 198, can also swing upwards to lead the defense line and even the inside line - the regular season accounts for 29% of the defensive rounds, and lead the defense line, limiting the shooting rate by 47.6% - How can Tatum fight against 9 minutes and 04 seconds, Tatum makes 2 of 7 shots.

From a tandem perspective, Ball got the 31st most 49 second assists in the league. Considering the existence of Doncic and James, Ball will definitely not become the main controller, but this does not prevent him from becoming a high-quality "setup". With an additional connection point, it can invisibly enrich the Lakers' offensive tactics.

From an offensive perspective, as a player with a career of 36.2% and a 42.3% three-pointer in the 21-22 season, he can be a fixed-point pitcher.

In summary, I think there are three things that Ball can bring to the Lakers:

1, the defensive end of the panacea;

2, another field soul tube;

3, a potential sharpshooter.

Relatively speaking, I think the first point is the most important.

First of all, the Lakers are not so lacking in offense and relatively lacking in defense under the premise of being with East Zhan. With a certain defensive ability, Ball has performed well in both regular lead and defending the opponent's ball holder or connection, and targeted defense at critical moments.

As for the third point, having a certain shooting ability can ensure that the team is not 4-on-5 on the offensive end.

As for the second point, it is largely the effect of adding icing on the cake.

Finally, I hope Pelinka will seize the opportunity to bring Ball back to the Lakers.
