The Lakers spend the first round! Double Towers plan to save Doncic, 41-year-old James last goal

The painful lesson of the collapse of the inside line‌

Latest eyebrow retreated last season, and the Lakers' penalty area was completely reduced to ruins - Hayes averaged only 7.8 minutes per game, and Jamison and Kroko were like passers-by in the Development League. In the first round of the playoffs, the opponent scored 68.3% shooting percentage at the Lakers' basket, and the third-placed team in the West was eliminated in the first round. Doncic roared and pointed directly at the management after the game: "We need the guardian of the penalty area!" This sting forced Pelinka to quickly launch the double center plan: trade young starters + mini middle-class signing veteran substitutes, and the goal was to directly select Clarkston, Rowe and Kessler.

The life-and-death game between the three major preys‌

1. Clarkston (25 years old) - Speed ​​barrier‌

Average of 12.8 points + 9.8 rebounds + 2.1 hats‌, perfectly adapting to the Lakers’ fast pace;

The Nets’ price demand is cruel: Hachimura Leaf + 2031 first round + 2028 swap rights + Tunklebert garbage contract‌.

2. Robert Williams (27 years old) - Steel Defense ‌

rebound rate‌18.7%‌The sixth in the league, with a rim protection reserve requirement ratio‌-9.3%‌;

injury shadows (only 48 games in two years), the Trail Blazers asked Reeves + Hachimura for Rowe + Avdia.

3. Kessler (23 years old) - Cost-performance betting ‌

Height 2.3 caps per game, the Jazz price is two unprotected first rounds;

The Lakers' tentative offer of Kneckett +1 was sneered and rejected.

Cruel reality: Clarkston needs to sign first and then change the trigger hard hat. Rowe only has 60% of his knees left, and Kessler is regarded as a non-selling product by Jazz - the chips that Pelinka holds are like waste paper.

Substitute plan's twilight gambling ‌

When the Mini Middle Class Special ($5.7 million) hits the free market, the Lakers can only play in the veteran's body Taobao:

Lopez (36 years old): a space artifact with a three-point shooting percentage of 37.4%, but the pick-and-roll movement speed is comparable to that of a sloth;

Capela (30 years old): a frontcourt rebounder (3.1 per game), but a 15-centimeter jump height due to a knee injury.

What is more ironic is that no matter who chooses, they are ten times better than last season's "pseudo-center" Hayes (7% of the league's defensive efficiency) - this comparison shows the miserable Lakers.

Fatal Risk: Soha at dusk in James' dusk ‌

draft pick black hole‌: The first round of 2031 is the only asset of the Lakers in the next ten years. If Clarkston is overdrawn, it will completely become a bottom in 2028;

Veteran's recession curse: The decline curve of Dalos/Capela is irreversible, and 5.7 million may be wasted;

Doncic's contract renewal countdown: If the determination to compete for the championship is not demonstrated before July 15, the Slovenian's refusal to sign will trigger a nuclear crisis.

General Manager Pelinka dances on the tip of the knife: If you want to save money, you miss Kessler, and if you want to fight, you will ruin the future. 41-year-old James stood on the edge of the cliff and silently watched the bet that was about his last championship in his career.

💎 Ultimate conclusion

The real dilemma for the Lakers is:

All reinforcement plans are like patching the broken ship - it seems to be repaired, but in fact it delays the sinking. ‌

If Pelinka can win Clarkston + Capela in a flash, the Lakers will rise from hell to heaven at the basket; if they miss the opportunity due to the first round pick, what awaits him will be a more violent anger than last season.
