Paul Gasol's choice to join the Spurs is very bad news for the Lakers.

The inside player Kupchek wants to find most in the Xiatian is Gasol, and fans also want to see Gasol and Guo Xu partner, which is their lost youth.

The two were only a little short of team formation. If Kupchek and Phil Jackson convinced the old Buss to trade Kobe, how many championships would Guo Xu and Gasol lead the Lakers to win? No one knows, it shouldn't be less than Guo Xu's in the Suns.

Because of Bosh's 118 million yuan in five years, the Lakers cannot give Gasol a high salary like the Spurs. The Spurs will fight next season, and Duncan took the initiative to cut his salary to allow Gasol to join smoothly. He hopes to win the championship at the end of his career and retire perfectly.

It is impossible to reduce Gasol's salary significantly. He is better than Novizki in his form, and he is balanced with offense and defense. He is only 35 years old, so there is no need to earn tens of millions less to compete for the championship. It is not too late to hold his legs after the minimum salary in the end of his career.

As for why 33-year-old Wade is willing to get a basic salary, who knows how James fools him...

Lakers fans are full of criticisms. The Knicks signed Stadamire for 100 million in 5 years in 2010, and Smith held six championships at that time. What about Bosh? The best record is the second round of the playoffs. How could he have a higher salary than Smith?

Now the hidden dangers have completely broken out. Unless you are willing to reduce your salary, it is difficult for free agents to join the Lakers.

There are also free agents like Louis Williams who are unwilling to join the Lakers because of overlapping positions. He jumped out of the contract because he didn't want to continue playing double-backs with the Raptors and Lillard, and wanted more playing time.

After rejecting the Lakers, Lou Wei chose to join the Nuggets.

The Lakers also invited the Pacers' 2003 power forward David West, but he was not optimistic about the Lakers and joined the Nets with a basic salary.

West played 66 games for the Pacers last season, averaging 11.7 points, 6.8 rebounds and 3.4 assists per 28.7 minutes per game. He chose to jump out of his $12.6 million contract next season, and he really doesn't care about money.

After strengthening the weakest No. 4 position, the Nets looked even more champion, and West's role in withdrawing the air is very important.

The Jazz signed Nets libero Joe Johnson for 22 million in 2 years. "Joe" won the championship in the Suns. He was not interested in running to Los Angeles to compete with Guo Xu for the championship, and he was even reluctant to cut his salary, so he also refused to renew the Nets' contract.

Guo Xu's youngster Jason Richardson did not join the Lakers either. He had a knee injury last season and chose to retire directly. He felt that he could not play anymore and had no motivation to fight after winning the championship.

Entering August, Kupchek, a powerful big-name free agent, didn't even sign, and he was almost shameless to meet someone.

Those who are willing to join the Lakers are veterans who are in a period of severe decline and cannot play anymore. Several role players who played well last season also left.

When signing, the manager was careful and had to ask Guo Xu what he meant first. Buss had already made it clear that he would seek Guo Xu's opinions this year, and the transaction was also the same. This is one of the important conditions for him to choose the Lakers.

Kupchek thought Guo Xu would be very angry because the Lakers' lineup was so bad, the worst in history, and the 76ers of the brothers and brothers in the last season were successfully strengthened.

As a result, Guo Xu was calm after listening to the manager's report on signings. When he was in the cycle, he thought that this might happen. An alien core like Wang Jun led a group of ordinary teammates, and veterans were unwilling to join.

Because the veterans don’t have much time left, they can’t afford to gamble. The best way to compete for the championship is to join the team with the strongest card lineup. Guo Xu will be 35 years old next season and retire for two years. They don’t believe that he has the strong dominance he used to be.

Even if Guo Xu calls every capable veteran to guarantee that they may not believe it, because this matter violates the laws of physics.

Guo Xu identified a few people and replied to Kupchek online: "Just sign these people, I think it's pretty good."

After looking at the list, Kupchek was shocked. "Are you sure these people can do it?"

"Isn't there no better choice? At worst, I'll average more than 30 shots next season, and others can stand for a few minutes. Now I'm the strongest time to win."

“…”

Kupchek really wants to say, can you lead a group of pig teammates by seeking victory?

But the Lakers really have no better choice. Not only the players don’t believe that Guo Xu can lead the Lakers to win the championship, but the manager doesn’t believe it anymore.

The Lakers' first signing, "Loyalty" Carlos Boozer joined the team for the minimum salary. His agent has always been Hapi Watels. At the end of his career, he gave up the talk of being a Cavaliers one-man and one-city, and wanted to compete for a championship ring.

Boozer, who often chats with Hapi, has heard many legends about Guo Xu. He believes that the rebuilt Lakers may win the championship.

The second signing, point guard Mo Williams joined the basic salary, and he is another person who has played for the Cavaliers for many years.

The Nets also extended an olive branch to Mo Williams. After considering it, he chose the Lakers. He was purely convinced by Guo Xu and felt that Guo Xu would create a miracle. If the two teams met in the finals, he would be Guo Xu's opponent and he was afraid that he would be beaten to cry.

In fact, Mo Williams is one year younger than Guo Xu and is a player born on December 19, 1982, but he firmly believes that Guo Xu is in much better shape than himself.

The third signing is Seth Curry joining the franchise at the minimum salary.

This is what Guo Xu asked. Kupchek didn't want this player who recommended himself but had no data. Seth is Stephen Curry's younger brother, 188cm tall and weighs 84 kilograms. He is known as a double-season guard, but he is not suitable for playing both positions. He has no confrontation, no organization, and can only shoot.

Guo Xu wanted to sign him and almost slipped under the table. "When we meet the Warriors in the Western Conference Finals, we can easily limit Stephen Curry's performance. I will call him to cooperate with the counterfeit ball because his brother is in our hands."

The fourth signing, defeated veteran Vince Carter in 12 million in three years. This contract is not big, and Carter can still play a role. He is not only good at shooting three-pointers, but also can break through with the ball. He made a lot of dunks with the Grizzlies last season.

After Gasol left the Grizzlies, Carter was no longer interested in staying there and had no hope of winning the championship.

The fifth sign is, Matt Bonner joins the basic salary.

Bonner of Earth One was miserable and did not win the nickname "Red Mamba". The Spurs don't want Bonner anymore, because he has never helped the Spurs win the championship once.

Born in 1980, Bonner was abused by Guo Xu in college, and after entering the NBA, he was abused. He joined the Spurs in 2006 and has been playing for various abuses.

In the peak season of 2008-09, he scored 8.2 points, 4.8 rebounds and 1 assist, with a 44% three-point shooting percentage, and has always been a role player. His code name is "Super Soft Baby", and he can only float outside and shoot without rebounds and have poor defense.

At the end of his career, Bonner also hopes to win a championship ring.

The Lakers' 15-man lineup has been confirmed in the new season, and a major blood change was carried out. The libero has left, and Guo Xu did not ask for a contract renewal. The only useful are Nick Young and Ed Davis, both of whom have won big contracts.

Center: Yusuf Nurkic, Robert Thackeray, Matt Bonner.

Power forwards: Monterrez Harrell, Carlos Boozer, Al Horford, Chris Bosh.

Small forwards: Josh Richardson, Vince Carter, Andre Robertson.

Scoring guards: Jordan Clarkson, Devin Booker, Seth Curry.

Point guards: Guo Xu, Mo Williams.

When the Lakers lineup was released, everyone was shocked. Can this kind of messy lineup win the championship? Isn’t this a group of passengers who are old, weak, sick, disabled, pregnant and hold children?
