Chapter 537 Dynasty Team!(1/2)

This year's NBA offseason has become very, very lively due to the activity of the Chicago Bulls and the Los Angeles Lakers.

As two teams participating in the NBA Finals last season, the Los Angeles Lakers and the Chicago Bulls also had the biggest improvement in the offseason.

The Chicago Bulls got Mourning, and was directly soured by many American media that the NBA ushered in the finale.

The Big Three such as Chicago Bulls Jordan, Pippen and Mourning are really scary.

It is much more balanced than the Rockets' Big Three, Olajuwon, Barkley and Drexler.

Moreover, the Bulls' bench strength is definitely not comparable to that of the Rockets.

And what about the Los Angeles Lakers?

Although the Los Angeles Lakers did not introduce giants of Mourning during the offseason.

But the addition of Mutombo and Choudumas still shows what the Lakers' ambitions are like in the new season.

Last season, the Lakers won the NBA championship with Lin Han's own strength, but everyone knows what the overall strength of the Lakers is.

From the inside out, the Lakers lacked everything, so Lin Han last season had a large number of games from the No. 1 position to the No. 5 position.

Even though Lin Han's strength is already recognized as the strongest in the NBA.

But basketball is a sport of five people, and this situation cannot be changed.

Especially after the Lakers Finals opponent Bulls defeated Mourning, they also received epic strengthening.

If the Lakers cannot respond, then they are likely to become the Bulls' standout next season.

Although the addition of Mutombo and Choudumas is not as shocking as Mourning, it can also rekindle everyone's confidence in the Lakers next season.

Mutombo's joining allows Lin Han to not spend too much on assisting defense. Mutombo is one of the best assisting defense players in the NBA.

As for Chaudhmas, although he is 32 years old, his data last season was close to 19+6, and he is a very outstanding player who can give trust in key games and critical periods.

The most important thing is that after getting Chaudhumas and Mutombo, the Lakers' attractiveness to some free agents who are looking forward to the championship in the free market is really a big increase!

After Mooning went to the Bulls, the first choice and only choice for many high-quality free agents who want to win the championship are the Bulls.

Even if the Lakers are the defending champions.

Everyone is not stupid. Lin Han’s fans may not be able to see clearly how the Lakers won the championship last season and think Lin Han can replicate such a championship process.

But these professional players know better than anyone else!

No one will play a one-on-one match with Lin Han next season, especially in the playoffs or finals.

Next season, if the Lakers want to win the championship, they must improve their overall strength.

Before Mutombo and Choudhumas came, almost none of the remaining players on the Lakers who had contracts could play except Lin Han, Eddie Jones and Rodman.

How could such a team be worthy of being hugged by others?

Therefore, after getting the joining of Chaudhumas, the Lakers immediately signed two free agents.

The first one is James Edwards, one of the former Pistons’ bad boys, a 39-year-old inside player who was a teammate in the Lakers during the Kareem era.

Although he has never been selected as an All-Star in his career, it is perfect.

At Pistons, he was an important member of the Pistons' double championship that year, but he has always had an obsession, that is, he hopes to retire perfectly, get the championship ring and then retire, so he is still playing at the age of 39.

According to his plan, he was going to hug the Bulls' thighs, but in the end, under the lobbying of the Magicians and under the influence of Mutombo and Choudumas joining the Lakers, he finally joined the Lakers.

Apart from James Edwards, the second person to come to the Lakers to hug the thigh is still an inside player, Mark Bryant.

Compared with James Edwards, who is 40 years old, although Mark Bryant is also thirty years old, he is definitely a high-quality inside substitute in his play.

Mark Bryant is the famous substitute for the NBA. He has nothing special or outstanding, but it is very good in terms of comprehensiveness.

This made him unable to play as the starting and main player, but his comprehensiveness allowed him to make a living in any team.

According to Mark Bryant's intention, he was going to go to the Rockets to hug his former boss Drexler's thighs.

But in the end, with Jerry West's heavy money and the improvement of the Lakers' overall strength, he chose to come to the Lakers.

With the signing of Mark Bryant and James Edwards, the Lakers' weakest inside line last season has also been almost perfectly supplemented.

Mutombo, Rodman, Mark Bryant, James Edwards, Aaron Williams and Antonio Harvey, such an inside lineup is no longer the same as the Lakers last season!

Judging from the Lakers' performance last season, there are big problems inside and outside the Lakers, but in the free market, the Lakers' main goal has always been to supplement the inside.

This is the magician’s request, and it is also Lin Han’s own request.

Because of Choudhumas' joining, Choudhumas, Eddie Jones, and Lin Han, these three will be the three stable starters of the Lakers next season.

In addition, the Magic and Wilkins can stand up for a while, so the Lakers' outside line is not that lacking.

Although he has no role as the sixth man, next season, Choudumas will be the sixth man to lead the bench.

Chaudhumas is a player in the starting lineup, but with Lin Han, he won't have that much ball.

When he was with Lin Han, he was more of a shooter.

However, in the substitute lineup, Chaudhmas' comprehensiveness can make him the absolute boss of the Lakers' substitute lineup.

As long as Choudhumas is not injured, the Lakers do not need the role of the sixth man.

The outside players that the Lakers need to add are outside players with certain functions.

What kind of functional players do the Lakers need now?

Simple, shooters and assaulters, no defensive players, just players who can score!

In terms of scorers, the Lakers are still in touch with former NBA single-game assist record holder Scott Skeles.

If Choudhumas had not come to the Lakers, he would definitely join the Lakers directly without any hesitation.

But after Chaudhumas came, he was hesitating.

He wants to have more roles in the new team, but the joining of Choudumas makes it impossible for Skeles to have many roles.

However, after hesitating for a long time in the end, after no other teams could afford a two-year and 4 million contract like the Lakers, Scott Skeles finally chose to join the Lakers.

After Skeles joined, the Lakers' substitute shooting power has been found.

The only thing missing now is the Lakers' substitute assaulter.

Chaudhumas is not young anymore, and Skeles is not a young man, so the Lakers' substitute needs a player with enough impact as an alternative for special moments.

Fortunately, Jerry West has already had a candidate for this role, so there is no need to deliberately look for free agents.

The Lakers' substitute Raiders role was formerly owned by Trevor Rufen.

Now, this role belongs to the 28th rookie of the Lakers in 1995, Teuz Edney.

Teuce Edney is a California native and a small guard who graduated from UCL University.

He is 1.75 meters tall, even shorter than Trevoruben.

But don't look at him short, his defense is definitely not comparable to Trevoruben.

At least in NCAA, he is the head of NCAA champion UCL, and is an absolute star player in California.

In this year's NCAA, his performance can be described as a super god.

The second round of the ncaa championship, with a buzzer-beating victory over Missouri in 4.8 seconds, and then he defeated Kang Da and the defending champion Arkansas State University in the quarterfinals and quarterfinals with his key performances.

If not in the semi-final Teuce Edney suffered a wrist injury in the big game against Oklahoma State.

This year's NCAA's mop is not necessarily Teuz Edney's teammate Eddie Obanon.

Perhaps because of his height and innate talent, he was not as popular as his teammate Obanon in the draft.

But in Los Angeles and California, he is definitely the second most popular basketball star after Lin Han!

If Van Exel is still on the team, Jerry West will definitely not choose him, and the roles and positioning of the two overlap.

But since Van Exel is gone, there is no problem.

It was even because he fell in love with Edney that Jerry West placed Trevoruben outside the protection list of the expansion draft.

Jerry West is not a dizzy person. He cares about Lin Han's feelings, but he won't do anything without a backup plan.

Only after his evaluation, I felt that Edney could completely replace Trevoruben's role.

Only then would he really be willing to throw Trevoruben away and save Lin Han's two brothers.

Otherwise, he would definitely think of other ways.

Lin Han was really very satisfied with the assaulter Jerry West had prepared for a long time after training with him for a few days.

Not only him, even Penny Hardaway and O'Neal who were training with him were full of surprises.

"Can the Lakers actually choose Teuz at the end of the first round?"

"It's all Jerry's credit. He has been observing Teuz for a long time."

Lin Han and Hardaway O'Neal were watching Bowen and Teuce Edney who were fighting at the bulls at this time, with satisfaction on their faces written on them.

This little defender is definitely an enhanced version of Trevorufen, and it is also a comprehensive enhanced version in all aspects!

Fighting spirit, willpower, technology, shooting, breakthrough, and even defense, apart from the fact that height is indeed a flaw, this small guard can even be said to have no shortcomings!

The key is that in addition to outstanding abilities, this guy is also handsome!
