The Lakers made the hero of winning the inside, and center Nurkic, who averaged 14.3 points and 8.8 rebounds per game in the playoffs, traded the Wizards, and replaced the blue-collar center Steven Adams.

Many people said that they couldn't understand this deal, and the Lakers lost a lot. Adams, who is 213cm tall and weighs 116 kilograms, is far inferior to Nurkic's data, and is a defensive blue-collar worker.

Adams entered the league in 2013 and played for three seasons with the Wizards. Last season, he played 25.2 minutes, scored 8 points, 6.7 rebounds, 0.8 assists, 0.5 steals and 1.1 blocks, with a shooting percentage of 61.3%, and has no ball rights in the team.

Love's main task is to pull out the screen and catch the ball and shoot. Adams still rarely attacks the low post. The Wizards want to trade to attack better players to give Wall, and Bill and his two firepower support.

After renewing Bill for 128 million in five years, the Wizards don’t want to renew Adams next year. He has one year left in his contract, so it’s better to send it away in advance.

Love also proposed a deal to the Wizards management. The team he wanted to go to was the Lakers, but the Lakers had no interest in him. Love's tactical role is similar to Horford, and his shooting percentage is not as high as Horford, and his defense is worse than Horford.

After discussion between the managers of both sides, Kupchek solicited Guo Xu's opinions.

The Lakers' digging for Adams was proposed by Guo Xu. He believes that the team needs a big man who can resist people and grab boards to protect the frame. Adams is not only good at defending the penalty area, but also able to go out to defend the pick-and-roll. He can't do this if the Wizards don't do this, and Love is no faster than him.

In parallel world, Adams is the center with the strongest NBA position ability. The Thunder's inside defense gate. Once he is troubled by fouls, the team's inside line will have great flaws and no one can make up for it. He can limit many top centers in the league. He also gave up many rebounds in many of Wei Shao's rebounds. In the 2017-18 season, he has more rebounds in the frontcourt than backcourt rebounds.

Moreover, Adams's cover quality is very high, and it is difficult for the opponent to rush after an empty cut, and the offensive end is not useless.

When trading Adams, the Lakers' defense in the penalty area will be improved. If his teammates don't score goals, he may also get a frontcourt rebound.

After the transaction was completed, Guo Xu felt that the Lakers were invincible next season. He wanted to beat rebounds, and his inside teammates might be able to help him average double-digit games.

Mo Williams, Bonner, Bosh retired, Boozer and Thackeray will not receive a renewal, and the Lakers have a lot of places left.

Seth Curry was poached by the Mavericks for 8 million in two years. Curry had a championship ring and proved his shooting ability last season. He didn't want to stay in the Lakers anymore, and he left too short playing time.

After Wade joins, Curry will find it difficult to get a chance to play next season.

The Lakers' fourth signing was a great value. He took 40 million in four years and got PJ Tucker. Tucker is an important rotation for the team. He often plays as a starting player and has a three-pointer in the bottom corner. With a championship, he only gets 10 million and is a salary cut.

He likes Los Angeles and the Lakers. It is the key to being Guo Xu's younger brother. Even if Guo Xu retires in the future, the Lakers will definitely be strong, and Durant will also lead the team.

Because of Tucker's height, even if other teams poach, the contracts offered by the other teams will not be much taller than this. The Lakers are very sincere.

The Lakers' fifth signing was when the veteran signed double-seater Jason Terry with a minimum salary.

This is an opponent who has been beaten and cried by Guo Xu. He is 39 years old this year. He wants to win a championship ring before retiring. His athletic ability is pretty good and he is still good at shooting three-pointers. It's okay to play for a substitute for a while.

There is another quota at No. 4, and the Lakers signed European player Davis Bellstein at a super low price of 1.45 million in two years.

Bertans is 24 years old, 208cm tall and weighs 95 kilograms. He played in the European League last season, averaging 8.5 points, 3.1 rebounds and 1 assist in 24.2 minutes per game, and his specialty is mid-range shooting.

In the 2011 NBA draft, Bertans was selected by the Pacers in the second round with 43 overall pick, and was then traded to the Spurs with Leonard. He had been playing in Europe before, and the Spurs had his signing rights.

Because the Spurs had long lost patience because they did not join the NBA for several consecutive years, the Lakers exchanged their signing rights with a 33-place second-round draft pick, 10 places higher than Bellstein's pick back then.

This deal was also Guo Xu's proposal. He said that he hoped that there would be power forwards who could shoot three-pointers as teammates, and that the defense would be better than Bonner and Novak. Bellstein fully met the standards and only needed to play as a substitute for a few minutes without doing too much.

The Lakers chose point guard for the sixth draw, and signed libero Raymond Felton with the basic salary.

32-year-old Felton was cut by the Mavericks because of his weight exceeding the standard and could not get a high salary and had a long appointment. He was willing to sign a veteran and came to the Lakers to hug him. He was younger than Guo Xu, but his condition declined was astonishingly fast.

He also played star data at his peak and has played in the league for 11 seasons, with rich experience. It is more than enough to be a substitute to play for a few minutes after Guo Xu left the court.

The Lakers signed Felton and refused Brandon Jennings, who was willing to join the salary cut, and felt that Jennings was a cancer and his shooting was too bad.

The quota is full, and no matter if any player wants to join, the Lakers are very strong in every position, two point guards are enough, Guo Xu plays 35 minutes without any pressure, and Wade can also play the point guard.

The competition for swinging people is the most fierce. With this lineup depth, Booker can't average 20 minutes per game, and Richardson can only be a marginalist. The worst thing is Robertson, who is difficult to make data in the contract year and it is difficult to sign a big contract next year.

Next summer, the Lakers don't plan to renew their contract with Robertson. He is a blue-collar worker who has a poor shooting.

The Lakers still need defense in their lineup now? If it weren't for veteran Carter who could be the Lakers' mascot, Carter wouldn't have any chance to play. It would be better to train new players to make him play more, but new players are not as stable as him in three-pointers.

Carter definitely can't compete with Durant and Tucker in the small forward position. However, Carter also got away with it. With the championship, there is no need to prove himself with a long time like a parallel world.

His goal is to establish a dynasty with the Lakers. If the team doesn't need him, he will retire in 2018. As long as he persists for another two years, he will be happy to accept any tasks arranged by the coaching staff.

Seeing that he had no place, Josh Richardson proposed a deal, and he would be dead when he continued to stay in the team. He was a rookie in the second round, and if he had no performance opportunities and no data, the next contract would be nowhere to be settled.

The Lakers management knew that there were too many swingers and the newcomers were not trained, so they simply traded Josh and sent him to the Heat for a first-round draft pick protected by lottery.

Once the Heat enters the playoffs and leaves the lottery zone within five years, this draft pick belongs to the Lakers. If the Heat fail to enter the playoffs, they can draft. If they don’t enter the playoffs in five years, this signing will become an unprotected draft pick.

No matter what the result is, as long as this is a first-round Lakers, they won't lose. Last year they signed Josh with the second-round draft pick. The Heat need to use this method to strengthen the No. 2 position. Josh will definitely be reused in the team and can play as a starting player, and everyone is happy.

After the quota was free, the Lakers signed 1.3 million veterans with a minimum salary of 1.3 million a year to free the free agent center Andrew Bogut.

He was the No. 1 pick by the Lakers back then and played for the Lakers for many years. Now he wants to come back and win the championship with his legs. Kupchek expressed his welcome, which is very gimmick.

Bogut doesn't care about money anymore, he just wants to win the championship. After seeing Durant joining, he believes that the Lakers will definitely defend their title easily next season. As soon as the free market opens, he recommends himself to join.
