Dispatch to the Golden State? About Lao Zhan, give a super plan, and all aspects can be happy!
Serious discussion, it should be that the Lakers privately asked James about the contract extension, but James did not respond, so the Lakers decided to put it on the shelf directly After all, James has been pit in front of the Heat Cavaliers Among them, the Cavaliers have been pit twice, basically for the Lakers, it is better to put it on the shelf directly than to wait for the James team to reply, on the one hand, to see if the trading market can exchange what suitable chips (the Lakers draft picks can be used until 2029, and now trade James appropriately to exchange for point picks to support it, At the same time, he also completely straightened his thick eyebrows and built a lineup around him.
If Janbus renews his contract next year, running a retirement tour with the Lakers is what the Lakers want to see the most. But if James jumps out of his contract and returns to Cleveland, the Lakers will be empty. What the Lakers are most worried about now is that they don't know what James thinks, and in the face of a person who may run away at any time, the only way for the team is to trade in advance to prevent the contract from expiring and not getting anything.
The key Lao Zhan can't be traded, the only teams that can match Lao Zhan's contract and don't need to dismantle the team are the Warriors, Bucks, Nuggets, Clippers, and some player functions of these teams overlap with Lao Zhan, in fact, the Magic Rockets, Knights, Raptors, Hawks, can buy Lao Zhan, these teams are poor teams, buying Lao Zhan is a lot of income, stay in the team as a mascot, anyway, these teams have no possibility of competing for the championship in a short time, and when Lao Zhan retires, won't he have the money to buy stars? And these teams can also enter the playoffs, which also meets Lao Zhan's needs, a win-win situation.
So give a super plan, and all parties can be happy. James for Paul plus a draft pick! The Warriors have the blessing of CP3, Curry has a cylinder, and Green has a real big brother, and he is directly aiming for the championship! The Lakers also have a true point guard, and thick eyebrows have really become the core.
Coupled with the existing tall lineup that can beat the Green Army, take off directly, and earn back an overdrawn draft pick and Paul's expiring contract next year! The Warriors can still keep a playback draft pick to sign Bronny! Ball market**, fans in harmony! Doesn't it look good.
But let's be honest, can James increase the Warriors' market capitalization, or will it increase the number of tickets, or will it increase attendance? I'm sorry to have Curry, the Warriors' tickets, market value and attendance are already the highest, the Lakers' attendance and ticket prices are cheap, in terms of immediate combat power, what will James use to exchange Curry? I don't change the money upside down, and I don't change the sports season
