(I didn't save the manuscript today.,Five more as much as possible.,If you can't do at least four more.,This is the second one.,Continue to ask for a wave of monthly ticket recommendation ticket subscription.,Thank you.。 )
The Lakers are also helpless, and they have been pushing to trade Jimmy with the Timberwolves. Butler's matter, but slowly.
The main issue is the chips involved in the trade.
The Timberwolves wanted the Lakers to have to add Ingram to their chips, and the Lakers were only willing to give Julius. Randall.
During the bidding, the Lakers also hesitated to send Ball + Ingram to Jimmy from the Timberwolves. Butler adds a first-round pick so that's counted, considering Jimmy. After all, Butler is an All-Star caliber player who was selected to the All-Three Team, and such a trade is not particularly bad.
But Wang Feng is adamantly opposed to trading Ingram.
If you look at it from the perspective of 2022, the gap between Randle and Ingram is actually not very large.
In the 2020-21 season, Randle averaged 24 points, 10 rebounds and 6 assists per game with the Knicks.
During the same period, Ingram averaged 23.8 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists per game with the Pelicans.
Purely statistically, Randall is even better.
However, as previously analyzed, although Randle's offensive ability is strong, his main offensive method is to attack the frame with the ball, and his shooting is unstable, especially the lack of three-point shooting ability.
Although Randle, who was a 20-21 driver, slightly developed his three-point shooting ability, and his average shooting rate once reached 40% per game, he was beaten back to his original shape in the 21-22 season, and his three-point shooting rate plummeted to more than 30%.
And in the first few seasons of his career, he basically didn't have any three-point shooting ability.
On the other hand, the draft template is Kevin. Durant's Ingram, since he entered the league, has three-point shooting ability, and his career three-point shooting rate has always been above 36%.
Ingram is a better projector than Randle and can play an off-ball role on the field.
What's more, Ingram is a full three years younger than Randle, and even in 2022, when the two are compared together, there are still more people who think Ingram is the one with more potential.
Therefore, Wang Feng did not want to trade Ingram, at least not Jimmy. Butler's deal.
Wang Feng knows that the current Butler has not yet completely fallen out with the Timberwolves, so the Timberwolves still have a little illusion, thinking that they can persuade Butler to reduce his salary and renew his contract to stay with the team.
But Butler will never compromise, he will make a big fuss on the team, make the Timberwolves disgraced, and eventually have to be forced to trade him away.
This event could take place in the preseason phase, or it could erupt after half a month or so of the regular season, just like another plane.
All in all, Wang Feng was aware of the possibility of this incident happening, so he was not in a hurry.
It's just that Wang Feng is not in a hurry, but the Lakers management is already panicking.
With the passage of time, the more the Lakers do not act, the more unfavorable public opinion becomes, especially the matter of Wang Feng and James, which is also further brewing in this situation, and there is a faint development towards Wang Feng does not want to partner with any star players and does not want others to steal the limelight from him.
……
In mid-September, Wang Feng returned to Los Angeles, reported to the team, and began to participate in team training.
There are many reporters squatting in the Lakers training hall every day, trying to block Wang Feng for interviews, but they can't do so.
Wang Feng lives in a simple house, and in addition to training in the stadium every day, he does not participate in any party activities and does not accept interviews with reporters.
For half a month, no reporter interviewed Wang Feng as he wished, but he became familiar with Wang Feng's work and rest time.
"After returning from Huaguo, Wang Feng has been training on time and on point, not going to bars, not going to nightclubs, and spending more than 10 hours in the training gym every day!"
"Wang Feng trains hard and wants to prove that he can win the championship even if he doesn't partner with James in the new season!"
Wang Feng's training attitude and consciousness have always been not a problem, because his body is systematically digitized, no matter what he practices, he can get a tangible improvement in progress, and there is a sense of accomplishment of playing online games and brushing up on experience leveling.
It's a pity that all abilities that exceed 90 are particularly difficult to improve by training, and they must be trained for many years to improve.
The most typical ones are speed, agility and stamina.
Physical training has always been the most important part of Wang Feng's daily training program, and the amount of training is much greater than that of shooting training.
But even so, the improvement of these ability values is very limited, Wang Feng's fifth season of NBA career is approaching, and the speed and agility have finally broken through recently, each increasing by 1 point, and the current speed has reached 93, agility is 94, and the bounce strengthened to 90 by free points has also increased by 1 point to 91 in training.
Due to the fact that there are a large number of free allocation points that can strengthen the basic ability in each season, Wang Feng usually does not deliberately train those abilities with low base value, although the ability training with low base value can be improved relatively quickly, which can save the consumption of free allocation points to a certain extent.
However, Wang Feng feels that the existence of free allocation of points is to keep him from wasting time in these aspects, and the upper limit of free allocation of points is 90, from 90 to 99, except for a few rewards that can be improved, he can only rely on training to improve, which should be the focus of his daily training and exercise.
……
During the time period when Wang Feng returned to the team for training, another big incident occurred in the alliance.
All-Star Cameron was traded by the Thunder to the Atlanta Hawks at the end of July. Anthony reached a buyout agreement with the team and became an official free agent.
Although Anthony's form with the Thunder declined rapidly last season, his scoring average plummeted from 22.4 points per game during the Knicks to 16 points, and his shooting percentage was only maintained at the 40% passing line, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse.
What's more, after reaching a buyout agreement with the Hawks, Anthony is now a free agent, and he can sign the All-Star player with a lower salary, and he will not lose anything.
The eyes of Lakers fans immediately lit up again.
"Hurry up and take down Anthony! No matter what his state is, he will definitely not lose money if he signs it with five or six million! The Lakers have been so miserable in the summer, and we don't want the team to win any top stars now, to get Cameron. Anthony is there too! ”
However, the Lakers still didn't make a move, and finally Anthony reached an agreement with the Clippers with a low salary of $5 million a year, and will join hands with James in the new season to form a dream partner in 03.
Lakers fans: "......"
Lakers! I RNM refunded the money!
