James disappointed performance in the execution of the ball selection system? The new boss is still saving money. Realistic goal is 37-year-old Daluo

On the evening of June 28, according to Mark Stein, LeBron James decided to implement his player option worth 52.62 million next season. Fans all over the world are surprised by this choice. Why didn’t James jump out of the contract and continue to cut his salary and renew his contract by 1+1? In this way, the Lakers have more room for signings? The long article of

ESPN says it all, the current Los Angeles Lakers exceed the luxury tax line: $4 million; below the first hard hat line: $4 million; below the second hard hat line: $16 million. After reading the whole article, I saw two of them - saving money.

If Finney Smith refuses to implement the player option and enter the free market, the Lakers can free up the full middle-class special case, so there will be a chance to sign a player like Alexander Walker. This 14.1 million yuan middle-class special case can be used separately and can be used to sign some middle-class and veteran players with basic salary. (Fenney Smith doesn't actively renew the contract because it's because it's going to pay a luxury tax. What's not saving money?)

BR believes that the Lakers most want to sign center Clint Capela with the luxury tax special case, because Capela is a blue-collar worker who is suitable for Doncic.

But BR reporter Jack Fisher revealed that although the Lakers intend to sign Capela with a luxury tax of 5.7 million yuan, Capela's name has not been closely linked to the Lakers in the past few weeks. More and more people are beginning to believe that 37-year-old Brooke Lopez will join the Los Angeles Lakers some time next week.

According to Lakers reporter Anthony Laurien, the Lakers knew the importance of introducing a center forward early in the morning, but the actual goal was a 37-year-old Brooke Lopez? Isn't it reasonable for James to be disappointed with this prospect without any upgrade in the lineup and Pelinka is still holding back? Whether he executes player options to know the main theme of the Lakers or "saving money", the arrival of the new boss has not changed anything.
