Internal conflicts broke out? Sorry, the Lakers, I can t blame James, Doncic didn t expect this to happen

Guidelines:

For the Lakers, the two days after the free market opened, no good results were achieved.

Unlike the Rockets, who ranked second in the Western Conference last season, the Rockets, who ranked second in the West, showed their strength in the free market: Durant, renewed Adams, Smith Jr., and signed Fanny Smith with a free agency. The Lakers, who ranked third in the Western Conference last season, have only signed Laravia with a contract of 12 million for two years.

In the already competitive West, when opponents strengthen and you remain unmoved, the gap between you and opponents will become bigger and bigger in the new season, especially the Lakers who were highly anticipated last season:

"Before the first round against the Timberwolves, the outside world was more optimistic about the Lakers. The reason is very simple: this Lakers have Doncic + James + Rivers, and in the late All-Star period, this Lakers also played the league's top offense and defense."

But now everyone knows the result, but even so, this Lakers did not make any big moves after the free market was opened. In this regard, some US media reported that the Lakers did not trade/sign contract The inside story behind the action:

"If the Lakers did not finalize the deal in advance or did not have other free agent signing plans, I would be surprised. It was just that they forced themselves into a more difficult situation. To be honest, I think LeBron's previous statement made their operation more difficult."

Although it is not easy for 40-year-old James to compete for the championship with a contract of more than 50 million yuan, I'm sorry, the Lakers did not sign any heavyweight player this time. This is really no wonder James: last season, James took the initiative to cut his salary to help the team sign other players, but the Lakers did not meet James' expectations.

I believe that fans who are familiar with the Lakers should know that although James is 40 years old now, James' goal is still to compete for the championship, but now the Lakers' existing lineup cannot meet James' requirement. Even Shams reported that James is uncertain about the Lakers' lineup and is evaluating the future.

More importantly, even Meiji talked about this topic on the show:

"LeBron does not like to partner with Luca, and Reeves does not like to play with Luca. Reeves hates receiving a pass when there are only two seconds left in the offensive time. LeBron does not like to play with Luca very much."

Is this a huge internal conflict between the Lakers? Doncic himself might not have expected this to happen, right?

It is obvious that this is the external media taking the opportunity to differentiate the Lakers. After all, the topic that is reported by Yang reporter John Gambadoro in his blog. Fans who are familiar with the Lakers and James know that in the 25-26 season, Doncic's joining greatly liberated James. Doncic can completely sort out the team's offensive end, and at the same time allow James to retain more energy on the defensive end and the key fourth quarter. As for Reeves, Doncic's arrival can help Reeves share the defensive pressure.

So, the question is, do you think the Lakers should trade James? Write in the comments.
