NBA: Come off the bench, save the national team

The reason why basketball experts are not optimistic about the Celtics is simple!

Garnett and Pierce continue to grow in age, and their dominance on the court is not as good as before.

Angie originally wanted to sign with Qin Feng in the off-season stud and re-establish the team, but Qin Feng didn't even give this opportunity at all, so he had no choice but to continue to make adjustments on the basis of the original core lineup.

The much-watched Chinese player Lin Shuhao signed with the Rockets at a price of 4 million US dollars in four years.

其次，09届的库里在勇士队拿到了5年8000万的顶薪续约合同、詹姆斯·哈登在森林狼队同样拿到了5年8000万的顶薪合同、格里芬则是以5年9500万的顶薪续约快船。

Because of Griffin's outstanding performance, the "Qin Feng Clause" was also triggered.

The remaining DeRozan, Jennings and others have also obtained good contract extensions, all of which are big contracts with an annual salary of around tens of millions of dollars.

......

The free agent market continues to be hot, and all teams are strengthening. In addition to the above-mentioned tyrants that caused a sensation in the league, the most concerned ones are Lowry and Redick, who have gained a lot of attention with Qin Feng. The player who gave up.

Redick joined the Bucks with a three-year salary of $3 million.

Lowry remained silent.

......

For more than a week, NBA teams have been frantically trading and signing contracts.

According to NBA official statistics, in the week after Qin Feng’s dust settled, 30 of the 29 teams in the NBA have traded and signed contracts, involving a total of 96 players, accounting for nearly four points of all NBA players. ratio of one.

Many players switch teams without knowing it.

Or disappear silently in this alliance with no one caring.

Especially for some veterans, if they fail to find a job in this wave of crazy signings and transactions, they can only face retirement or go overseas to play.

When next season begins, fans will find many faces disappearing and then many new ones.

Welcoming and sending, endless life.

Among all these teams, many teams have aroused the attention and heated discussions of fans all over the country and even all over the world through transactions.

Of course, the most watched is the Lakers.

However, after signing Qin Feng, the Lakers suddenly became silent, without any further operations.

But the only players currently under contract for the Lakers are Qin Feng, Kobe Bryant, Gasol, Artest, Dayao, Jrue Holiday, Louis Williams, and Meeks.

There are still 15 people short of the 7-man roster!

Everyone was wondering why the Lakers didn't sign the contract for a long time. After knowing the truth, people shed tears silently.

It turned out that the Lakers became a championship team after signing Qin Feng.

There are many veterans who want to come to the Lakers with a basic salary contract in order to get a championship ring.

So the mixed team general manager Kupchak was dazzled and a little bit at a loss.

After careful screening, Kupchak first signed free agent Antawn Jamison with a two-year basic salary of 2 million.

The 35-year-old veteran averaged 17 points per game in the Cavaliers last season, and has a precise three-point shooting ability. He is a big man who can open up space.

It can be described as a great strength.

At the same time, Kupchak renewed his contract with Jordan Hill, who was traded from the Rockets with Fisher, for a price of $2 million in two years.

Then, Kupchak signed Qin Feng's former teammate Kyle Lowry with a four-year, $4 million contract.

Originally, I wanted to exchange for Nash from the Suns by signing first and then changing, but Nash's salary is too expensive, nearly 1000 million dollars, which is still a bit too much for the Lakers, who are under great pressure on salary space .

In the end, when Lowry took the initiative to contact the Lakers management, Kupchak decisively signed this potential young player.

In the regular season last season, Lowry averaged 11.4 points, 4.7 rebounds, 5.6 assists and 1.5 steals per game, making him a proper starting point guard player.

It's just because the Thunder have Westbrook, so Lowry can only play as a substitute.

Then, Kupchak used a basic salary and a very low contract to sign several undrafted and second-round picks to form a 15-man roster.

At this point, the Lakers' lineup for the new season is fully formed.

Center position: Pau Gasol ($1900 million), Dayao ($1000 million);

Power forward positions: Antawn Jamison ($135 million), Jordan Hill ($350 million);

Small forward position: Artest ($720 million);

Shooting guard positions: Kobe Bryant ($2700 million), Qin Feng ($1700 million), Lou Williams ($500 million), Jody Meeks ($150 million);

Point guard: Jrue Holiday ($260 million, rookie contract, contract extension not discussed); Lowry ($600 million);

Such a lineup can only be described as luxurious and powerful.

It's just that there is a huge problem now, which is what position Qin Feng will play. After all, Kobe and Qin Feng's positions overlap, and both of them must be starting.

Many media and basketball experts predict that Qin Feng may appear at the small forward position.

Although he is not tall enough, his explosive physical talent can still allow him to crush everything at the small forward position. After all, LeBron James can only be abused when facing Qin Feng.

Of course, Qin Feng can also play point guard, but because there are two good guards in the team, Lowry and Zhu Holiday, the probability of playing guard is not high.

Finally, ESPN predicted the starting lineup of the Lakers for the new season, which is Gasol, Antawn Jamison, Qin Feng, Kobe, and Lowry.

The main rotation lineup on the bench is Dayao, Jordan Hill, Artest, Louis Williams, and Jrue Holiday.

Seeing these two lineups, the media and basketball experts once again lamented the strength of the Lakers. With this bench lineup, it is a proper starting-level lineup for other teams!

Of course, there is a price to pay for having such a strong lineup.

The salary of these 11 players is as high as $1 million, far exceeding the salary cap, plus four players with a basic salary of hundreds of thousands of dollars, the total salary expenditure of the Lakers for the new season is $1 million, the highest in the league. The team that spends the most.

As a result, the Lakers will also pay the most luxury tax in the league, up to $3000 million.

However, boss Jerry Buss is obviously not a stingy person, and he formed this lineup boldly.

Just when the whole world thought that the Lakers' operations had come to an end, the well-known Yahoo Sports reporter Wo Shen suddenly broke the news about the Lakers.

"Heavy!Lakers Fire D'Antoni, Hire Steve Kerr as Team Coach"!

Later, Warshen broke the news that Cole's signing contract with the Lakers was $5 million for five years.

Suddenly, the whole world was stunned! !
