The Lakers’ stable character is the post-James era layout. After the show operation, both the present and the future are required.

After the opening of Anthony Davis’s early renewal window, Lakers president Pelinka placed the top salary contract of $0.186 billion for three years in front of Davis. Davis readily accepted and completely bound his peak season with the Lakers. For Davis, who has the hidden danger of injury, the renewal in advance adds security to his future. In the next five seasons, Davis’s total salary will reach 0.27 billion dollars, of which the average annual salary of the three-year new contract will be 62 million dollars, breaking the record created by Jay Brown not long ago. For the Lakers, this is a key part of Pelinka’s layout for the post-James era. The 38-year-old James had player options during the offseason 2024, and his choices were very diverse. After 3-4 years of contract to retain Austin Reeves, eight villages, signed Vincent, the Lakers and Davis completed an early renewal. No matter how James chooses in the future, the Lakers can ensure that they have both the core Davis and depth of team building, and there is also room to chase other big stars in the free market. It is also ironic that after the Lakers won the championship season, Pelinka chose to go forward when he needed to be steady and steady. Coupled with the injuries of James and Davis, the Lakers wasted more than two years. Before the trade deadline of 2023, Pelinka finally completed the “sealing operation” and the error correction was successful. During the off-season period, Pelinka no longer rushed into the lesson learned this time. A series of operating instructions of Pelinka, the Lakers not only strive to win at present, but also have been laying out for the post-James era. After all, James will be 39 years old at the end of December and have player options in the summer of 2024. In the draft convention, the Lakers chose Jaron hood-sifino with the 17th sign and Maxwell Lewis with the 40th sign. In addition to last year’s No. 35 show Christie, the Lakers hoarded three potential stars under the age of 22. In the free market, the Lakers gave eight villages 51 million dollars for 3 years, Reeves 56 million dollars for 4 years, and also dug a corner heat to introduce Vincent with 33 million dollars for 3 years, all three of them are in the long-term planning of the Lakers. Russell signed a 1+1 contract, and whether he is still unknown in the long-term planning. Vanderbilt has not renewed the contract in advance, but from September 7, local time to June 30, 2024, Vanderbilt is eligible to sign an early renewal contract of up to $75 million for 4 years. Considering Vanderbilt’s age and characteristics, he is highly likely to renew his contract in advance. The potential of the three new stars is good, and the four combat capability are all quality puzzles. The depth of the Lakers is guaranteed now and in the future. The next step is to establish the leader of the post-James era. Davis is not willing to let it go. He is the final star of the Lakers. Last season, the world had seen how horrible Davis was when he played center. He averaged 25.9 points, 12.5 rebounds and 2 blocks in the regular season, field goal percentage of which was 56.3 percent of his career record. In the playoffs, Davis had shortcomings, but the average 22.6 points, 14.1 rebounds and 3.1 blocked data were still horrible, especially his defensive performance. The Athletic Lakers accompanying reporter Buha also believes that no matter whether The fans are willing to accept it or not, James’s career is running out and The Lakers need to make plans earlier. Whether James will retire or leave the Lakers to switch to other teams in the future, Davis will be the front of the new era of the Lakers, and he will also be the key to attract other super stars to join the Lakers. Apart from Los Angeles, the Lakers have no salary space in the future. Davis’s top defensive ability and no-ball offensive ability make him compatible with any outside star. In the era of Zhan Mei’s combination, Davis also proved that he was willing to accept the role of the second leader. The only thing that can affect Davis’s prospects is injuries, but the problem of hidden injuries also scores. It is true that Davis’s attendance rate is not high, but from the 2016-17 season to now, Davis has played 400 games. In the same period, Joel enbide only played 394 games and Curry only played 387 games, owen has only 362 games and Durant only 345 games. When Davis’s team entered the playoffs, except for the 2021 playoffs, Davis’s attendance and performance were almost impeccable, and he was absolutely reliable in the big scene. In addition, regarding Davis’s injuries, Pelinka and Rich Paul both believe that Davis’s injuries are more frequent because of bad luck, and they all believe Davis will good luck comes. Before, Paul said: “Davis’s experience in the past two years is very strange. Other players hit his knee upside down, causing him to be injured. When he landed, he stepped on his opponent’s foot, before, he pulled his hamstring or groin. Any athlete engaged in sports may suffer these injuries, but the outside world described it as if Davis was injured as soon as he played.” Pelinka didn’t expect Davis to avoid injuries only by transshipment. He was also trying to help Davis reduce the risk of injury. He signed center Hays and took Hays and the winner of the Championship season, Dwight Howard, Howard, mackey comparison. Pelinka is still planning to sign another center to further reduce Davis’s burden. Davis is still likely to play the starting center in the new season, but according to the opponent’s counterposition, the Lakers will flexibly arrange troops instead of locking Davis in No. 5 position 99% as last season. The Lakers are also releasing two signals to renew Davis in advance. In the era of the Buss family, the Lakers were famous for their kindness to meritorious officials, from Jerry West, Jabbar, Magic Johnson, Kobe Bryant, James, Davis, the Lakers gave sufficient respect and treatment to the hero. “Human Touch” is the label of the Lakers and the hearts and minds operation they recruit superstars to join. In recent years, the operation of the Lakers has never been separated from Paul, the super agent. James is undoubtedly the most heavyweight customer of Paul. Even if James retires in the future, the Lakers will not give up the line of Paul, after all, Paul still holds the stars such as Garland and Zac Lavin in his hand. Davis renewed his contract ahead of time, and Vanderbilt (whose agent is also Paul) is likely to renew his contract ahead of time. The line between the Lakers and Paul will not break in the next few years. Generally speaking, this is an off-season that can satisfy the Lakers. What should be left is left, and those who should renew the contract in advance are also signed, and most of the contracts are at reasonable prices. The Lakers have both the present and the future, and the remaining problems caused by operational errors in 2021 are basically solved. In the new season, the Lakers can rely on thick depth to help James and Davis reduce their burdens and strive for a better regular season ranking. As for whether the Lakers can compete for the championship in the new season and the future, it depends on whether Davis can improve the attendance rate and find the feel of the jump shot, and really carry the banner.
