US media suggested that the Spurs trade 4 for 2 to chase James, and the two historical No. 1 picks join forces to compete for the championship! The Lakers also benefited

Only one week into the new season, the league has experienced a data blowout. Take the Lakers as an example. Team leader James missed the early season games due to injury, which also gave young players a chance to break out. In the first 4 games, Doncic scored a high score of 43 points in the opener, and finally scored 49 points in the second game. Due to a left finger sprain and a left calf contusion, Doncic also had to sit out for a week, but at this time Reeves fought again, scoring 51 points in the third game, and 41 points in the fourth game. Obviously, this does not exist in the history of the Lakers. However, after the game, the outside world raised two questions: 1. If Reeves breaks out, he can sign a maximum salary contract of US$240 million for five years if he stays with the Lakers. Will the Lakers give it? 2. After James returns, how will his positioning change?

It is worth mentioning that James recently released a new book, in which he had a conversation with Big Eyebrow that caused controversy. I should have received 500 million contracts in the Cavaliers, Heat, and Lakers, not only because I brought them championships, but I also changed the entire pattern. Some values ​​are not only reflected in basketball. In this year's offseason, the Lakers refused to give James a new contract extension, causing the latter to be disappointed and chose to execute the last year of the contract. At one time, some media broke the news that James was injured early in the season just to test whether the team's strength was capable of competing for the championship. He would not blindly come back. If the situation is not right, James is likely to apply for a trade to join a team with the strength to compete for the championship, and at the same time bring some future asset compensation to the Lakers.

Just recently, the well-known American media Bleacher Report put forward a shocking view on social media: "The combination of James and Bunyama can directly dominate the league!" and made it clear that the Spurs should seek to trade James and let the two No. 1 picks join forces. This bold idea quickly detonated the NBA circle, and the article mentioned that the potential 4-for-2 trade plan includes: the Spurs will send Vassell, Keldon Johnson and two first-round pick swap rights to acquire James and Bronny from the Lakers.

This idea put forward by the US media is not groundless. The rapid growth of Wenbanyama is the starting point of all this discussion.

The 21-year-old player scored 40 points and 15 rebounds in 30 minutes in the San Antonio Spurs' season opener, undoubtedly proving his strength. "He has already shown the potential of a superstar. In the 4 games of the new season, he averaged 31 points, 13.8 rebounds and 4.8 blocks per game. Under his leadership, the Spurs also made a strong start with a perfect start of 4 wins and 0 losses!

As for the Lakers, the situation in the new season has also undergone subtle changes. After Doncic joined, the Lakers have begun to focus on James' layout after retirement. Last season, Doncic played 30 games for the Lakers, averaging 29.4 points, 8.3 rebounds and 7.6 assists per game. The first two games of this season were completely crazy! What's even more surprising is that Reeves scored a total of 92 points in the past two games, also showing his All-Star potential.}

US media analysis pointed out that Doncic's style of play requires a lot of holding the ball. After James returns, it will not only reduce the number of times Doncic holds the ball, but also affect his team's status, which may lead to the weakening of Doncic's advantage as the starting point of attack. Reeves can also perfectly assume the responsibility of the second offensive point, complementing Doncic! The best thing the Lakers should do is to trade him instead of waiting for him to retire or announce that he will leave as a free agent without getting any return.

The Vassell and Keldon Johnson acquired from the Spurs are both players with good fighting ability, and the two are also of an age suitable to play for the Lakers for a long time with Doncic! 1} For the Spurs, the introduction of James will bring this young team the most lacking of playoff experience and critical moment dominance. Last season, the 40-year-old James still averaged 24.4 points, 7.8 rebounds, 8.2 assists and 1 steal per game, shooting 51.3% from the field and 37.6% from the three-point range. Despite the situation, he still maintains a top level of competitiveness and can become the perfect mentor next to Wenban Yama.

From the perspective of lineup fitness, the Spurs currently have a talented young core. The defender De'Aaron Fox, whom the team acquired from the Kings last year, is a perfect fit with his speed advantage. The role of "Little Sports Car" Tony Parker.

Dylan Harper, who was selected with the second pick this year, served as the team's sixth man. In the third regular season game of his career, he scored 20 points, 6 rebounds, 8 assists and 2 steals, with a plus-minus value of +34, playing a role similar to Ginobili's. In addition, Wenban Yama corresponded to the core of "Stone Buddha" Duncan. The Spurs have basically replicated the lineup structure of the GDP era.

Of course, any trade idea for James has to face a practical problem: * His contract contains the right to veto the trade.

"As James executes the player option, the trade veto power and 15% trade guarantee in the contract are still retained. "This means that James himself has the final say in any transaction decision. The Spurs have good salary space and can give James a two-year contract. At the same time, it may be an acceptable choice to let Bronny join the Spurs with him and pursue the championship together.

If this deal goes through, the combination of James and Bunyama will immediately change the strength of the league.

US media believes that "the core lineup composed of Bunyama, James, Fox, Dylan Harper and others is expected to go very far in the playoffs this year. "The two No. 1 picks from different eras joining forces will produce a huge chemical reaction. The combination of Wenbanyama's defensive range and James' organizational vision can cover almost every corner of the court..

For the Lakers, although sending away James is the end of an era, the exchange of young players and draft pick flexibility will allow them to better build a team around Doncic and Reeves, ensuring competitiveness for many years to come.

After all, in the world of the NBA, sometimes the craziest ideas are often the most likely to become reality.
