Sun Dahei was praised by Abdul-Jabbar's face full of embarrassment, this is simply "killing", even if Sun Dahei is thick-skinned, he will not think that the hook he just made can reach the point of "good" that Abdul-Jabbar said......

"Haha, big black, I'm really going to die laughing...... Or don't you just don't practice the heavenly hook, how good is it to learn from me to learn small hooks, we are a super physique center, it is useless to learn so many skills? O'Neill didn't dare to say this in front of Abdul-Jabbar, but whispered to Sun Dahei. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Ahem...... Don't scold me if you don't agree, you have something to say, you have something to say! ”

……

O'Neal's small hook under the basket can cause a lot of damage, but Sun Dahei has no need to learn at all, with Sun Dahei's strong physique, he has already killed under the basket, wouldn't it be more cost-effective to stand dunk......

……

In the past few months of training, many Lakers players have also trained with Sun Dahei, but they are all young newcomers, such as Ingram, Clarkson and this year's rookie Josh Jackson, etc., driven by Sun Dahei, these newcomers do not dare to relax their requirements.

In the NBA, where you don't work hard, there are a lot of hard-working players waiting for you to relax the day when you can surpass you, and once you are outtaken and can't get more playing time, it will be very difficult to rise again.

During the training, Sun Dahei has also been full of praise for Ingram and Josh Jackson, these two newcomers have excellent physical fitness, and the attitude of training is also very correct, every day and Sun Dahei go to the training gym at the same time, and leave almost at the same time, the degree of hard work is not inferior to Sun Dahei.

Seeing the hard work of these two outstanding newcomers, Sun Dahei can't help but be full of confidence in the Lakers' journey next season.

……

Originally, in the offseason, Sun Dahei thought that there were players on the Lakers team who would go to the summer league, but no one went at all......

Generally speaking, the players who participate in the summer league are some rookies who are very weak, of course, there are special circumstances, and there are many first-class stars who are dug up in the summer league and then embark on the road to glory!

Normally, each team in the summer league will focus on their team's second-round rookies, and then recruit some free agents that they think are good through free formations to form a team to participate in the summer league!

However, this year, the Lakers did not have a chance to sign a second-round pick, and the only rookie Josh Jackson was a rookie sign, let a rookie sign play in summer league? That's definitely a bit of a bully......

And the summer league is also a game, and there is also a risk of injury, and the Lakers management is reluctant to let the new roster take risks......

……

I can't participate in the summer league, but it is exactly what Sun Dahei wants, and he can put more energy into training.

In September, the Lakers really entered the roster construction period!

After the Lakers signed Sun Dahei, Chris Paul, and Vince Carter in July, they began to contact NBA teams to explore the possibility of trades, and after two months of July and August, they were finally on the right track.

With the addition of Son Dahei, Chris Paul, and Vince Carter, the Lakers will definitely need to free up space in the form of trades or layoffs.

Last season's Lakers regular season fifteen-man roster were: Ruer Deng, Mozgov, Jordan Clarkson, Ci Shiping, Company Commander Brewer, Tariq Black, Yang Shaoxia, Russell, Ingram, Julius Randle, Tyler Ennis, Larry Nance Jr., Thomas Robinson, Zubac, David Nwaba, exactly fifteen!

Among them, David Nwaba, Zubac, Ci Shiping, Tyler Ennis, Randle, Tariq Black, and Thomas Robinson are all players who are not guaranteed or drafted in the 2017-2018 season and can be left to the disposal of Lakers management.

Among these seven people, the first is David Nwaba, who was directly discussed by the team management and cut directly, making room for the team.

Ci Shiping signed a one-year extension with a salary of $1.12 million, and he will continue to shine with the Lakers and contribute to the Lakers. In fact, with Ci Shiping's current competitive state, the Lakers originally didn't want it, but they finally renewed Ci Shiping's contract out of some considerations......

This consideration is the pitch conflict...... There are too many newcomers to the Lakers, young people are full of firepower, and it is very easy to engage in violent conflicts, for example, when Nick Young played against the Bucks last season, he suffered a lot of losses from the Bucks center Monroe.

This incident also gave the Lakers management a wake-up call, and felt that it was necessary to keep Artest, although his competitive state was almost gone, but he was still in peak state to fight, and if there were some special circumstances, he could also come on the field to fight fires! It can be said that Ci Shiping's upcoming role next season is the bodyguard of the newcomers, especially to protect Sun Dahei......

Although there was a conflict on the court, the bench players could not come on the court to help, and once they helped, they would definitely be sent off and fined, but the Lakers didn't care about that small fine at all, and they could pay the full amount for Ci Shiping......

Zubac, a rookie center, played a little bit in the Lakers, at least the current data is worthy of his status as a second-round pick.

However, Zubac is too young, and the Lakers are going to compete for the championship next season, and Zubac is difficult to be qualified for the difficult position of Sun Dahei's bench, so the Lakers management has thought twice about sending Zubac to the Development League first and see what happens next.

Tyler Ennis, who is also a rookie, a first-round pick in 94, was traded to the Lakers by the Rockets last season, and is currently mainly used as a substitute for Russell in the Lakers lineup, with little average playing time per game, if it can be cultivated well, it is not a problem to grow into a qualified backup point guard, but now the key for the Lakers is that there is not so much training time, there are enough newcomers in the lineup, and they are all talented super newcomers, it is impossible to give Ennis too much playing time......

And Ennis's defense is not up to par due to his physique and experience, which is also inconsistent with Sun Dahei's philosophy......

So poor Ennis couldn't stay with the Lakers any longer, and the Lakers decided to exercise the team option right in Ennis's contract to end Ennis's contract......

……

Julius Randle, like Ennis, has a contract option for the 2017-2018 season, but Randle is still useful, and the Lakers are reluctant to cut him.

The last Tariq Blake, signed a two-year contract with the Lakers in 16 for nearly $13 million, although this contract is relatively cheap, but considering Tariq Black's performance, this contract has become another garbage contract for the Lakers in addition to Mozgov and Ruhrdeng.

Fortunately, Blake's contract was not guaranteed in the 17-18 season, so the Lakers cut him without saying a word......

The last Thomas-Robinson, this one was cut like nothing to say......

Among these seven people, David Nwaba, Tyler Ennis and Tariq Black were directly cut, while Zubac was sent to the Development League, which means that the Lakers are now free up five roster spots!

Sun Dahei, Chris Paul, Vince Carter, and this year's star Josh Jackson can directly enter the Lakers' 15-man roster for next season!

For the 2017-2018 season, the Lakers tentatively set up a 15-man roster.

Center: Sun Dahei, 4 years 120 million US dollars, 2017 salary starting salary of 25 million US dollars.

Mozgov, $64 million for 4 years, $16 million in 2017!

Zubac, although he was dropped, the Lakers still have to bear his salary, which is $1.1 million in 2017.

The current tentative roster of the Lakers at the center position will consume a total of about 42 million salary space!

Forward: Ruhr Deng, 72 million for 4 years, $18 million in 2017!

Cory Brewer, 17 years salary is close to $8 million. Swingman of the Frontguard.

Nick Young, 17 years with a salary of $5.5 million. Swingman of the Frontguard.

Ingram is $5.3 million and Josh Jackson is close to $6 million, both of whom are on rookie contracts and both are swing guards.

Vince Carter: $3.5 million!

Randall $3.3 million, Larry Nance Jr. $1.2 million!

The forward position, most of which are swing guards, will need to consume about 51 million salary space next season!

Defender: Chris Paul is $170 million for 5 years, and the starting salary for next season is $29 million!

D'Angelo Russell is $5.3 million next season. Jordan Clarkson will be $12.5 million next season!

The guard position also consumes a lot of salary space, up to $47 million!

……

If the Lakers keep their current 15-man roster, their total salary next season will be as high as $140 million! It's already 130 million higher than the highest salary in the history of the Knights!

Although the NBA's salary space has increased further next season, $140 million is just stuck at the door of the hard salary cap, and the Lakers will pay it completely if they grit their teeth, but it is very uneconomical.

The 15-man roster, such as Mozgov and Ruhr Deng's junk contracts, will definitely need to be disposed of, and the Lakers' salary space may fall further.

However, despite the decline, according to current estimates, the Lakers will have to pay at least 120 million salaries next season......

The salary luxury line of the 2017-2018 season is 103 million, and the Lakers' salary of at least $120 million will definitely bear a lot of luxury tax!

However, compared with the Cavaliers in the 16th season, the luxury line in the 16th season is only about 94 million, and the Cavaliers can sign a contract of 130 million US dollars......

……

After tentatively finalizing the 15-man roster, Lakers management talked with Sun Dahei about the Lakers' roster construction next season.

After getting rid of Tariq Black's $6 million junk contract, the Lakers still have three junk contracts to deal with on the team, namely Mozgov, Ruhr Deng and company commander Corey Brewer......

The combined salaries of these three are as high as $42 million, which puts a lot of pressure on the Lakers' salary space!

However, the contract of company commander Corey Brewer, after discussion, found a solution.

The company commander's contract expires in 18 years, and there is only one year before the contract expires, and the Lakers can completely cut Brewer directly, and all they need to pay is Brewer's salary of nearly eight million in his last year.

However, it is not yet time to really cut Brewer, and the Lakers have not yet determined the target of reinforcements, so they will put Brewer in the lineup first and play a dozen regular season games first, so that the Lakers can also pay Brewer less and reduce some losses.

The NBA is a business field, anything that is good for the team is right, no matter how cruel and ruthless, as long as it can increase the strength of the team, it is a wise decision.

……

The Lakers are actively trying to solve the contracts of Mozgov and Ruhr Deng, and in order to sell these two garbage contracts, they are willing to package up potential new stars Russell and Randle.

Soon, the large garbage contract of Ruhr Deng ushered in the dawn of disposal!

Judging from the Lakers' current lineup, there are too few players available for the center and power forward positions! That is, there are too few inside players, full of calculations, and Sun Dahei is the only one who can really come in handy!

Mozgov's garbage contract is going to be disposed of, Zubac is too young to be used, although Randle can definitely grow into a qualified quasi-All-Star level power forward, but he plays too alone, and Russell is a typical ball bully, and it is difficult to pass the ball out after it is in his hands, so he will definitely not be able to coexist with Sun Dahei, and he will be packaged and traded next.

Considering the above reasons, the most urgent issue in front of the Lakers now is to bring in an inside line!

As for what kind of interior line to introduce, there is no consensus within the Lakers management, and even Sun Dahei is a little uncertain.

Is it the introduction of a defensive interior line? Or the introduction of a new interior line with three-point shooting capabilities? This is a problem that is currently struggling with the Lakers' uniform team.

Magic Johnson advocates the introduction of a new type of interior with three-point projection ability, and he believes that a big forward with three-point projection ability, and Sun Dahei's interior combination is definitely at the perfect level!

Pelinka and Wharton Jr. are more inclined to defensive inside, their point of view is that Sun Dahei's offense is mature and stable enough, and directly into the interior line, it can basically ensure that it can cause lethality, if you introduce a three-point inside, you will definitely have to take away Sun Dahei's ball, and the offensive efficiency will not necessarily improve, but the introduction of a defensive power forward, coupled with Sun Dahei's defensive perversion, will definitely make the Lakers' interior line become the most difficult forbidden area in the NBA league!

Of course, if there is a very reliable three-point power forward, Wharton Jr. and Pelinka will definitely raise their hands in favor.
