With the signing of Owen Durant Jordan Jr. to the Nets, the Nets immediately formed a "Big Three". Dinwiddie, who has renewed his contract, does have the strength to fight against all teams, but after all, this is only a superficial situation, and the details depend on the future running-in situation of the team (aside from the topic, the Celtics lineup was obvious to all last season, didn't it still come out? And Durant will be reimbursed next season, and the upper limit of the Nets will not be very high.
The Los Angeles Lakers, who had hoped Owen could come, immediately panicked. Owen left and Butler didn't come. It was originally planned that Owen Butler would not come to get Harris, but Harris also renewed his contract. The salary is not low, so all the former "water carriers" went to the Warriors. Now the Lakers have only one signing goal, and that is Leonard!
For the Lakers, the good news does not stop there. After Leonard and "Magic" Johnson met privately, some media said that Leonard was very satisfied with the magician's conversation. It proves that Leonard has gradually opened his psychological defense and is interested in joining the Lakers.
Where are the Lakers' big fish? Lakers management is not a fool, they will definitely compete for Leonard, because they also know that James and Davis can't do it alone. They need to get another top star, and Leonard is definitely the first choice. Leonard 15 signed a contract of more than 94 million yuan in five years. It can be said that there is no problem with the salary space of the Lakers now, but whether they can sign a contract in the end depends on the joint efforts of the general manager, James and Davis.
Everyone knows that James is very popular, and Leonard and James have a good personal relationship. I believe that if James and Davis work hard, Leonard will come to the Lakers just around the corner, and then "Lakers championship" will no longer be just a slogan.
