The God of War is coming too! Ayton s substitute center! Pelinka, you are really the god of buying out the market

Basketball

This offseason, all the Lakers' operations come from the free market, not trading. It has to be said that the Lakers are still very good at Taobao in the free market. The introduced Laravia, Ayton, Smart, and Hayes, who have renewed their contracts, are all bargain, especially Ayton, the top pick. The last contract was 100 million yuan and the annual salary exceeded 35 million yuan, but they only reached a two-year contract with the Lakers of $16.6 million, and their value has shrunk significantly. Of course, perhaps only the Lakers have such treatment. The Lakers are in the big ball market, have a superior geographical location, and are a super giant, with the opportunity to compete for the championship. For Ayton, he doesn't want to stay in the lifeless bottom team. He hopes that he will gain a higher team status after coming to the Lakers and use his short-term value to shrink in exchange for a brighter prospect.

Let's take a look at the Lakers' current lineup. After signing Smart, their core roster has reached 14 people, and the last place is still missing. The Lakers have not stopped their pace of strengthening in the market. Their last strengthening goal has two main aspects. The first is to improve the backcourt defense. The trio with James, Doncic and Reeves as the cores is really at a disadvantage in defense. A DOPY Smart cannot quench his thirst. They also want to get a defensive veteran like Holiday. The second is to improve the depth of the inside. Ayton's arrival solved the Lakers' urgent need, but their inside resources are still insufficient. Hayes and Vanderbilt are both more suitable for playing No. 4. The other players who can play inside, such as Kleber and Kloko, have very limited personal abilities.

Therefore, the Lakers would better get a substitute center with enough ability so that their lineup will be completely perfect. Now, the Lakers really found their last puzzle for the championship, which is Vucevic of the Bulls. According to reporter Anthony F.Irwin, the Lakers are closely monitoring Vucevic's movements. Once Vucevic reaches a buyout with the team, the Lakers are likely to take him down. Before this, reporter Jake Fischer said that Vucevic has no market at present and he is likely to reach a buyout with the Bulls, not through a transaction. For the Bulls, the team sent off Laven last season and officially entered the reconstruction period. The next step is to train young players, and the 34-year-old Vucevic will naturally not be within their plan.

At the same time, the Bulls have not dealt with Gidey's issue yet (the two sides are stalemate on contract renewal), and they hope to seek changes in the lineup as soon as possible. If the God of Martial Arts is bought out by the Bulls and then taken down by the Lakers, I will really have to praise Pelinka, the god who buys out the market. The Lakers don’t have much space left now, and even if they sign Vucevic, they can only be at a low price. Many people are worried about whether Wu Shen will accept a low-priced contract. In fact, this is the same as Ayton. Instead of sitting in a bad team and waiting to die, it is better to take the initiative to jump out and seek a better environment. There is a chance to compete for the championship when coming to the Lakers. In addition, even if you sign a new contract at a low price, there will be no loss for Vucevic. After all, it was through a buyout, and the salary of the original contract was still taken. This is another matter for the new contract. Of course, Wu Shen is willing to buy out and come to the Lakers.

Although he is 35 years old, Vucevic was able to score a luxurious data averaged 18.5 points, 10.1 rebounds and 3.5 assists last season. His advantages and disadvantages are very obvious. His advantage is that his space-based inside line has the strongest three-point shooting ability among the center. Last season, his outside shooting percentage reached 40.2%, second only to Towns, Jokic and Porzingis in the No. 5 position. The disadvantage is that the horizontal movement speed is too slow and the basket protection is relatively average. There is actually no need to worry about this. On the one hand, the Lakers' offensive rhythm is already very slow. They are not a team with a large number of fast attacks, but prefer to fight positional battles. On the other hand, the Lakers' basket protection mission can be handed over to Aiton and Hayes. As long as Aiton's attitude is improved, he will definitely have the ability to protect the basket. He was just a little defensive and clean before.

Once Vucevic joins the Lakers, the Lakers can also try the coveted double tower lineup. Ayton is paired with Martial God, a traditional way of playing, the offense is mainly about eating cakes, and the other can open up space and shoot three-pointers in the basket. This picture is too beautiful and unimaginable. Of course, since Vucevic's defense is not good, Ayton's defensive performance after joining the Lakers also needs to be verified. The Warriors are likely to be put on the bench. The Lakers' starting lineup Doncic, Reeves, James, Hachimura, and Ayton are the most reasonable. Regarding Vucevic, even if the Bulls regret it and are unwilling to buy him out, the Lakers have the resources to get him through trades, so they can only choose Vincent + Kleber + two future second-round picks, and the Bulls cannot refuse. What do you think are the adaptability of the Lakers and Vucevic?
