After being eliminated, James smiled! Lakers management officially stated today that they will bring in a center

Yes, our season ended yesterday with a long break of more than five months. In this way, the 40-year-old James can make good use of this time to adjust his body, and the Lakers are also hurrying to make suitable reinforcements to prepare for the championship next season.

It's just that yesterday I looked at the back of Lao Zhan leaving the field and returning to the locker room, and I was a little lonely. His wife, Savannah, was waiting for Lao Zhan in the player's tunnel and gave him a kiss to comfort his lover.

Subsequently, James brought his family and friends to a red wine party to officially start the offseason.

In this round of the series, the Lakers were completely pressed and beaten. It's clear that Redick is still experiencing the difference between the regular season and the playoffs. In his first year as a head coach, he went 50-32 in the regular season and finished third in the West. When it comes to the playoffs, there's a lot more to learn. Neither did he use the right people well, nor did he come up with appropriate offensive and defensive tactics to deal with them. Every adjustment is passive, and it is expected by the other party.

The atmosphere of the Lakers' post-game press conference yesterday expressed regret for this season. Reeves said he was playing terrible and would train harder in the offseason.

James said of the Lakers' lack of a true center: "No comment. My buddy AD said what he wanted, and he was sent away the next week. ”

Lao Zhan made a joke, was in a good mood, and was not shrouded in the haze of defeat. He smiled, and we were relieved.

Hachimura pointed out that the Lakers need a center.

Earlier today, Pelinka held a press conference in which he said the team is working now to build a full roster centered around Doncic. Pelinka believes that Donci Reeves James has a promising future when they play together, and management will try to get them to win the championship together.

Pelinka emphasized that an important goal for the Lakers this offseason is to add a center. In addition to the center position, Pelinka said that the offseason will also be about solidifying the defensive core at the wing position: "In terms of center trades, it would be nice to have a player who can protect the vertical offensive threat and the high drop ball threat on the inside. This is crucial in terms of solidifying our defensive wing, and you can upgrade at any time. ”

Redick said the Lakers' roster must reach championship status in the offseason.

Finally, Pelinka said: "I think LeBron has high expectations for the team's roster next season and we will do everything we can to meet them. ”

NBA reporter Dave McMenamin spoke today about James' goals: "LeBron wants another championship and he knows it's within reach. ”

The Lakers' offseason priorities include: James' future, Doncic's contract extension, how to strengthen with expiring contracts and draft assets, and Reaves' contract extension.

Yesterday, James said of his plans for the next step in his career: "I don't have an answer yet. I'll sit down with my wife, my family, and the team. Think about how long I want to play, and we'll see. ”

There's a saying that's actually quite true, we miss watching the playoffs, but in the past few years, we have never experienced what it was like to be like, and James spoiled us when he was in his prime.

I want to say a lot, but I don't know where to start. A thousand words might as well be summed up in two words: thank you. Thank you, James. At the age of 40, you have continued to play for another season.

The road ahead, no matter how you go, you have already become a monument in our hearts. Because of you, our love for basketball is still alive. You are my motivation to continue watching the NBA. I hope your retirement stage will come later, and let us stay with you for two more years.
