Lakers news: James talks about the inside story of the park for the first time, the team s non-sale products are exposed, and he intends to pursue the championship center

On June 12, three news came out of the Los Angeles Lakers. Fans who care about the Lakers will take a look.

Jack James' first talk about the inside story of the park

Today, the 12th episode of the second season of Lakers star LeBron James' podcast program "The Brain of the Field" was aired. During this period, James revealed some unknown inside story stories in the park for 20 years. When talking about the most memorable thing in the park, James said: "I stayed in the park for 96 days. What I will never forget most is that there are only two restaurants there. Fixed taste and tired of eating are all trivial matters. Because I had a fixed diet during the playoffs, these two restaurants cannot provide specific quality agricultural products and leafy green vegetables, which makes me unable to consume something that maintains my physical function. I have to put in more energy and patience to overcome it." Not to mention the top athletes like James who are self-disciplined and have extreme requirements for diet, even if we ordinary people only eat in two restaurants for three months, it is painful enough. It is conceivable that James has made persistence and hard work that ordinary people can't imagine in order to win a championship.

When talking about life in the park, James said: "Every day, there are three o'clock and one line, training, competitions, eating, resting, and there are almost no leisure and entertainment places to enjoy. And I can't stay with my family. If they want to enter the park, they must be quarantined for at least a week before we can meet, but we are not allowed to live in the same building." Perhaps many people think that the 20-year championship is very watery, but it is not difficult to hear from the information revealed by James that only the strength and mentality are strong enough to compete for this championship without distraction. In other words, this is likely to be the champion who needs to overcome the most in history, and the value is self-evident.

The team's non-sale products were exposed

Today, the Lakers reporter Jovan Buha of the US media "The Athletic" interacted with fans during the live broadcast. When asked what actions the Lakers would do if there was a suitable trading opportunity, Buha said: "I don't think Doncic is touching. Of course, there is also James, not only because of his role and influence on the Lakers, but also because of his trade veto." Before the trading deadline of this season, the Lakers got Doncic from the Mavericks through trades, and then he and James showed good chemistry. In the final stage of the regular season, Lian Lian won the third place in the Western Conference. In the first round of the playoffs, due to the Lakers' inside disadvantage, they were eliminated 4:1 by the Timberwolves, but Doncic and James' performance was very impressive.

It is not difficult to hear from Buha's words that the Lakers' non-sale products are Doncic and James, and all other players, including Austin Reeves, who has always regarded as treasures in the Lakers' management, may be used as bargaining chips. It is obvious that the Lakers are determined to make some changes this summer to improve the team's shortcomings and enhance competitiveness. On July 1, the door to the trading market will officially open. I look forward to what kind of moves the Lakers will do.

Intentionally pursuing the championship center

Today, according to Lakers' team reporter Anthony F. Irwin, sources revealed that the Lakers may use the mini middle class (annual salary of about 568,000 US dollars) to pursue Warriors center Kevin Looney. Looney, 29, is 2.06m tall and weighs 102kg. He has been playing for the Warriors since entering the NBA in 2015 and has helped the Warriors win three championships. This season's regular season, Looney played 76 games, averaging 15 minutes per game to score 4.5 points, 6.1 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 0.6 steals and 0.5 blocks. This summer, Looney's contract is about to expire and will become a full free agent.

Luni is a player with obvious advantages and disadvantages. His advantages are his hard work, high attendance rate, willing to do dirty work, able to eat cakes, grab boards, protect frames, and can play a certain influence on both ends of offense and defense. The disadvantage is that as he gets older, Luni's athletic ability and speed continue to decline, and his ability to finish off is very poor, and may not be suitable for matching with Doncic. Overall, if the Lakers can't get better players in the market, Looney is also a good alternative. Of course, Looney has a deep relationship with the Warriors. If the Warriors are willing to provide him with a contract that matches the Lakers' salary, then the Lakers' dream of getting the champion center will probably be shattered.
