Extreme 2 for 1! The Lakers signings this summer are over, the lineup list is released, Palin tries his best

Basketball

This summer, the arms race between various NBA teams has been in full swing.

In the extremely fierce competition in the Great Western Conference, teams such as the Rockets, Nuggets, and Clippers have completed strong upgrades and strengthening. The defending champion Thunder also spent hundreds of millions of dollars to complete the contract renewal with three core players, Alexander, Chett and Jewe.

However, the two highly anticipated traffic teams, the Lakers and the Warriors, did not move much.

The Lakers are better than the Warriors. Since the draft, the Lakers have been upgraded. They chose rookie Adu Tiero, signed defender Laravia, and also grabbed No. 1 center Ayton in the buyout market. These operations are still very cost-effective and have also brought some upgrades to the Lakers.

On July 20, the Lakers once again made a quick move in the buyout market and got a very good player, that is, former Celtic defender, DPOY winner Smart.

On this day, according to ESPN famous reporter Shams Charania, Marcus Smart reached a buyout agreement with the Washington Wizards, planning to sign a two-year, $11 million contract with the Los Angeles Lakers after passing a clarification period.

The Lakers will use the biennial special case to sign Smart. In order to use this special case, they will first cut Milton and Goodwin. After signing Smart, the Lakers will have 14 formal contract players, 1.05 million from the first hard hat.

According to this year's situation, the minimum number of players to sign a formal contract is 1.27 million, which means that the Lakers' lineup has basically been finalized.

A team must have at least 14 players in a season, and the Lakers also meet this condition.

The Lakers' lineup after winning Smart is as follows:

back line: Doncic, Reeves, Smart, Vincent, and Brownie.

Frontline: James, Hachimura, Vanderbilt, Cleber, Laravia, Knector, Adu Tiero.

Center: Ayton, Hayes.

The Lakers also have a two-way player Jamison, and two two-way places.

This is equivalent to the Lakers paying the price of losing two players, Goodwin and Milton, in exchange for Smart, which is also Pelinka's extreme operation.

Two-way contract players are destined to be unable to bring actual help to the Lakers. The Lakers have very limited space for trading. This means that the Lakers' signings this summer have basically come to an end.

The general manager Pelinka has tried his best to complete these operations under limited conditions.

After getting Smart, the Lakers' lineup is still worth watching.

Doncic, the top three in the league, James, who can rank sixth in the MVP list from one to five, Reeves, who is the most cost-effective, Hachimura and Van Debiao, who are everywhere on the defensive end, Ayton, who once beat Doncic, and DPOY Smart, the only defender in history.

Just ask if this lineup is strong, right? Does it seem that it is top-notch from the inside out, from offense to defense?

This is a joke.

To put it seriously, everyone knows that the Lakers urgently need to strengthen three types of players, mobile No. 5, forward 3D, and No. 2 leader. What the Lakers lack most are actually players such as Kessler, Wiggins, and Melton.

It's a pity that the Lakers don't have many trading assets, including Reeves, Hachimura, Kleber's expiration contract, Vincent, and a first round. At most, these are some value. It's difficult to complete a big deal.

I hope Smart can restore some of his peak abilities, and his defense can bring great help to the Lakers.

The Lakers' lineup can play in the Western Conference, but it is quite difficult to defeat teams such as the Thunder, Nuggets and Rockets in the playoffs.

Fan friends, what do you think?
