The Lakers management panicked! It s not because of James, but because Doncic is reluctant to renew his contract

The popularity of the free market has passed, and two teams are a little embarrassed this season. First, the Warriors, which are restricted by Cumingga, have no action. In addition, the "conflict" between the Lakers and James is becoming increasingly fierce. The Lakers do not want to waste time on James, but James wants to be respected. In the end, the Lakers do not have much action in the free market. However, for the Lakers' management, there is a worse news now, that is, Doncic's contract renewal.

Why did the Lakers management have the confidence to break up with James? In fact, the reason is very simple, that is, he got Doncic. James' age became his biggest weakness, and Doncic's attributes are the best alternative. So when the management discussed the team's future, Doncic participated. After the Lakers sold the team, he also notified Doncic as soon as possible.

Of course, we must understand the management's approach. Even if the 41-year-old James can still play 20+ data, he has no time to take care of the head and tail. When he plays on the offensive end, he has no spare energy on the defensive end. What's more, James cannot play for too long. Even after James clearly expressed his dissatisfaction, the management did not respond. But Doncic is different. Doncic has not renewed his contract for a long time, which is the most worrying thing for the management. The team on Doncic has no clear attitude towards renewal, but directly stated that he will play for the Slovenian national team this summer, and the issue of renewal can be pushed back. This is what management is most worried about. Let’s analyze the prerequisites for deciding how Doncic renews its contract one by one.

The best condition is record, and the Lakers' current situation is internal and external troubles. As the teams continue to strengthen during the offseason, many experts have attributed the Lakers' next season to the edge of the playoffs. Although the inside problem has been temporarily alleviated, the departure of the electric fan further weakened the Lakers' defensive strength. It is not difficult to see from the Lakers' starting lineup that the biggest loophole of the Lakers is defense, which has not been solved. The Lakers' record is too difficult, and the only way is to trade and continue to strengthen around Doncic.

James's matter has not been resolved, and Doncic cannot come forward. As the first player in active service, James has his own influence. Doncic, who later joined, could not break up with James, but he did not renew his contract, just to see how the management responded. Everyone knows that there are only two people with the Lakers who have transaction value, one is James and the other is Reeves. The management has not received Doncic's contract renewal for a long time, and he dared not take action rashly. This has formed a vicious cycle, and both of them are waiting and watching.

In the end, Doncic is close to climbing to the top of the mountain and does not want to fall back to the bottom of the mountain. Doncic has led the team to the finals when he was the Mavericks, and his team's ability is not weak. If the Lakers' strength this season is limited to this, it will be unacceptable for Doncic. He has already reached the highest point. If he lets him walk again first, no one will want to.

Of course, the Lakers also have natural advantages. The city and fans behind it are the team's greatest confidence. As the conflict between the management and James intensifies, the management will also leave no effort. The Lakers want to give Doncic a maximum salary contract with 30% salary space. What is certain is that as long as Doncic is willing, the Lakers will definitely offer a maximum salary contract renewal, but does the management really understand Doncic?

's indifferent attitude towards veterans and powerlessness towards strengthening the lineup, all of these performances made Doncic see it. Whether he dares to renew his contract and whether he will renew his contract will take time to verify, and Doncic's contract renewal has become the biggest concern for the Lakers.
