Lakers news: James creates two more miracles, the possibility of Xiaoli leaving the team increases, Daluo attracts robbery

Jack James created two more miracles

Today, the NBA officially announced that Thunder guard Alexander was elected the MVP of this season. Later, in the released detailed voting session, Lakers star LeBron James scored one fourth-ranked ballot (3 points per one) and 15 fifth-ranked ballots (1 point per one) scored a total of 18 points, ranking sixth among all players. With this, James also created two miracles, namely: 1. Become the first player in history to win MVP votes in 20 seasons; 2. Become Michael Jordan at the age of 40 and become the oldest player in history to win MVP votes. This season's regular season, James played 70 games, averaging 34.9 minutes per game to score 24.4 points, 7.8 rebounds, 8.2 assists and 1 steal. How difficult are these two records

? On the one hand, players need to have sufficient physical conditions to maintain sufficient health and attend seasons in the high-intensity NBA league; on the other hand, players need to have top-notch skills and self-discipline, and can still perform at the MVP level at the age when they should have declined rapidly or even retired. In addition, the NBA no longer allows high school players to enter the league, which means that future generations want to break the two records maintained by James is comparable to reaching the sky. Whether you love James or hate James, you really need to give him enough recognition and respect.

The possibility of Xiaoli leaving the team increases

Not long ago, according to several reporters, Lakers guard Reeves is expected to seek a new well-paid contract after breaking out of his contract next summer and becoming a free agent. Today, the well-known American journalist Bill Simmons revealed in a show that Reeves will definitely be traded. Simmons said: "As far as I know, the Lakers' ideas about Reeves are constantly changing. They clearly understand that if James, Doncic and Reeves are the top three cores, they will not be able to win the championship. The Lakers need to exchange Reeves for more valuable assets, such as a trustworthy center, and I am even willing to take a gamble on it."

In fact, Simmons' point of view is correct. First of all, Doncic and Reeves are both players who focus on offense and defense, and this will be unlimitedly targeted by opponents in the playoffs with low fault tolerance; secondly, the Lakers' inside problem is too serious. If it is not resolved as soon as possible, they will be eliminated as early as this season; finally, Xiaoli wants a big contract, but the Lakers are difficult to meet due to salary pressure. All signs indicate that the Lakers are likely to complete a deal about Reeves this summer, get a quasi-All-star inside player, while avoiding the risk of Reeves leaving in vain after jumping out of the contract in the offseason next year.

Dallows led to a snatch of snatches

In early May, American bookmakers released an odds list about the Lakers' starting center next season, and the results showed that Brooke Lopez, who has become a free agent, ranks first. Just as fans imagined the return of the high-quality frame protection space-type Daluo, everything changed unexpectedly. Today, according to the US News Gery Woelfel, an executive revealed that many fans in the league are interested in Lopez and are expected to pursue him fiercely. This season's regular season, Daluo played 80 games, averaging 31.8 minutes per game to contribute 13 points, 5 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.9 blocks.

It is worth mentioning that according to the Lakers' current salary situation, at most, it can only provide Lopez with a mini middle class contract (about $600,000 annual salary), which is quite uncompetitive. Unless James jumps out of the current contract and signs a salary cut contract with the Lakers to free up a full middle class (annual salary of about $1,300,000), it will be difficult to recruit Lopez from a group of competitors. Keep paying attention to what will happen in the future.
