The Western Conference teams are strengthening together, and the Rockets are crazy! When they see the Lakers, they are still picking up trash

As soon as the NBA summer window opened, the Rockets' operations lit up the fans! I thought it was the biggest surprise to get Durant before, but I didn't expect that Rockets management would have a backup plan. They signed Finney Smith in four years and $53 million in free agent market, and then signed free agent Capela for another three years and $21.5 million. In addition, players such as Jeff Green, Holiday, and Tate also continued to receive a one-year basic salary contract. Then he renewed his contract with Smith for $122 million in five years.

Including Durant's transaction, the Rockets management has conducted a total of 12 operations in recent times. Look at the Rockets' lineup next season, are you scary?

According to the current lineup, the Rockets' total salary is $194.5 million, not only will they have to pay luxury taxes, but they are also infinitely close to the first tycoon line. And you should know that even the Rockets at their peak would basically not pay luxury taxes. It seems that the Rockets' goal in the new season is definitely the championship. =

Other Western Conference playoff teams also have good reinforcements. The Grizzlies have renewed their contracts with Jalen Jackson and Aldama, and signed Jerome from the Cavaliers before. The Mavericks got Russell, and the lineup of the new season is also very exciting. The Nuggets even sent Porter Jr. and a first-round pick and got Johnson of the Nets. The strength of these playoff teams has been significantly strengthened, but look at the Lakers that are highly anticipated by people.

Since the offseason, Pelinka said that the Lakers should make big moves, but the result was only $12 million in two years and signed a Larevia. If it weren't for the Lakers, I guess many fans hadn't heard of this player, right?

He is the first round pick in 2022, 2.01 meters tall, has played in both the Grizzlies and the Kings, and has played a total of 136 games in the past four seasons, with only 6 starts. His career average is 6.1 points, 2.8 rebounds and 1.3 assists.

I don’t understand what the Lakers are signing such a seemingly useless player to do? However, this is also in line with the usual style of the Lakers' management. Since James joined, the Lakers have been making a lot of noise every year. Lakers fans have almost all superstars in the league and have played the Lakers jerseys, and they want everyone to come and play for the Lakers. But in the real world, the Lakers management has been picking up rags.

Because in the Lakers' opinion, as long as there is James, they will have box office guarantees. It doesn't matter whether they win the championship or not. Just make money. Every time it is "sewed and patched for another year." If the Lakers still have this lineup in the new season, James should leave as soon as possible. It is really impossible for the Lakers to win the championship again.
