US media simulates "Fire Lake" for 3 major deals: Wiggins and Rozier join the Lakers!

Basketball

Recently, US media BR simulated a 3-for-3 deal between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Miami Heat! The specific content of the

transaction is: The Lakers give away: James and Son + Milton; those who get the Heat: Wiggins + Rozier + the next first round (the top three protections)!

After the free market opened, James immediately chose the player option of $5,260,000 next season, which also means that the first player in NBA history to compete in 23 seasons, setting a new NBA record for the longest career! This is also the first time James has chosen to execute the player option in so many years in his career. This decision will cause a series of problems! First of all, after James executed the player option, he spoke through his agent Ritchie Paul, saying that his remaining career wanted to be in an environment where he could compete for the championship. However, as James himself, he should be very clear that the Lakers' current lineup configuration, if he wants to truly change from a playoff team to a championship team, the only way out is that he rejects the player option and reduces the salary significantly, so that the team can strengthen the championship. However, after he chose to implement the 5260w option, the team has no room for reinforcement, so how can he compete for the championship?

In recent days, the conflict between James and the Lakers management has been constantly exposed. Half a month has passed since James chose to execute the player option on June 30. The Lakers official has not made any statement, which is a bit unreasonable. Normally, any team has a player execution option, the team official will make a statement, let alone James! Unless all this is the result of tacit understanding between the two sides. It is reported that after the Lakers were eliminated by the Timberwolves, Pelinka, Redick, Doncic and Doncic agents held talks on the team's future, directly excluding James, which means that the Lakers have made it clear that Doncic is the core of the future. James's opinion is no longer so important. It is foreseeable that even if he is not traded by the Lakers, next season is destined to be the last year of his Lakers' career.

Against this background, it is reasonable for the US media BR to propose a transaction conjecture! In exchange for James and Milton, Wiggins + Rozier + 1 in the first round, this deal is beneficial to both sides! First of all, after the Lakers got Wiggins, the team's forward defense ability can be improved. The combination of Hachimura + Wiggins is not top-notch defense, but it is definitely enough. At the same time, it can clarify Doncic's team boss position. Rivers and Ayton can eat James's ball rights. Rozier's joining on the bench gives the team a qualified scoring point, and can also avoid the outbreak of conflicts in the locker room. Now a series of actions by the Lakers management have made James unhappy. If you continue to keep him in the lineup, you can't guarantee what will happen. Since you have decided to focus on Doncic and focus on the 26-27 season, then disposing of two garbage contracts in advance is a correct choice!

The same is true for the Heat. Wiggins was unable to react with the team after joining last season, and his performance was far inferior to the Warriors' period. It is difficult for the Heat to break out of the East with the current lineup. Taking James back to the commercial basketball route is a good choice. The championship and ticket selling is a more realistic point for the Heat at this stage! Moreover, James' contract is only one year, and the initiative in the next offseason is completely in the hands of the Heat. Why not do it?

The last question is, do you think James will apply for a transaction? Are you optimistic about his return to the Heat? Welcome to leave a message for discussion!
