The Lakers are extremely aggressive this summer! James s contract is one year away and he needs to prove his determination to win the championship to Doncic

On June 5, there is still one day before the NBA Finals start. While on a podcast, the famous salary expert Bobby Marks analyzed the Lakers' operations this summer. He pointed out that the Lakers will be very crazy during the offseason and they must express their determination to win the championship to Doncic.

Bobby Marks pointed out that the Lakers are expected to take extremely 'aggressive' actions during the offseason, especially considering that James has only one year left in his contract. Among them, the Lakers have three very important points. Bobby Marks said: "First, make full use of the upcoming $60 million contract, especially players like Vincent and Hachimura Leaf. Second, the Lakers have shown their intentions at the trade deadline. They tried to get a sensation through the trade, but failed due to physical examination issues. This summer, the Lakers will seek to sign a center again, and they have a first-round draft pick to use. Finally, focus on August 2, which is the day when Doncic is eligible for renewal. Therefore, the team must be both the present and the future, especially after James retires."

and then Bobby Marks continued: "One of the motivations for the Lakers is that they need to show Doncic that the team really wants to help him win his first championship. He reached the NBA Finals last year when he played for the Mavericks but lost after five games. Doncic looks noticeably thin in public appearances, with at least one report pointing to his health care regimen after being criticized for his poor body management. In addition, James has a $52.6 million player option next season, he You can reject this option, become a free agent, sign a new contract with a slightly longer, or leave the Lakers, but most people expect him to stay. The deadline for him to decide whether to implement this option is June 30.

In the 2024-25 season, the Lakers were eliminated 4-1 by the Timberwolves in the first round, and they encountered the first round game for two consecutive years. Obviously, the management hopes that the team can make a breakthrough. What do you think should the Lakers do this summer? Welcome to give your opinions in the comment section.
