In recent seasons, every movement of the Los Angeles Lakers can cause heated discussions among fans, especially LeBron · James, known as "Old Zhan", is undoubtedly the focus of fans' attention"He, it's really incomprehensible, we don't want everyone to rush to spray Pelinka all of a sudden, let's change the angle today, and look at this wave of Lakers operations from all aspects, in fact, it is not necessarily a bad thing, maybe it is secretly paving the way for the team

Let's talk about the two recent trades made by the Lakers, and many fans bluntly expressed their disappointment: "Pelinka has done another incredible thing!" What do you get in exchange for two first-round picks? Isn't it just a transition player? "In the eyes of many fans, it seems that the Lakers should directly rush to the championship, strengthen the roster, rather than engage in self-dismantling through a disappointing trade, if we look further, we will find that this is actually a step in the long-term development of the Lakers, although there is no superstar to join at the moment, but don't forget, the old does not go to the new does not come, this transaction definitely has its meaning
In the current situation, the Lakers' lineup does need some fresh blood blessings, recall, if the team wants to rebuild, Pelinka, who has a clear head, also has to consider the issue of salary space, and now the team not only has to fight for the playoffs, but also for the future development, Kuzma, Ingram and other outstanding young players have left a lot of regrets, but it is undeniable that the Lakers do need to further liberate salary space at this time, raise some funds, and prepare for future reinforcements, which in the eyes of some fans, It's a painful parting, but it's also a sign of responsibility for the future of the team

Let's talk about Lao Zhan, everyone knows that he is the soul of the Lakers, leading the team through a lot of thorny roads, but because there is a superstar like "Lao Zhan", it is not possible to think that the Lakers can easily present the championship, now, James's championship window is getting shorter and shorter, and timely reinforcements can allow him to lift the championship trophy again in his lifetime, but this does not mean that the Lakers management should "blindly" cater to James's wishes, after all, the responsibility of the manager is to make choices for the long-term development of the team, If you don't consider the future of the team, no matter how much you cater to it, you can't resolve the potential crisis of the Lakers
So, the question now is, do the Lakers really owe James? We have to admit that the Lakers are very grateful for James' contribution to the team, but team building requires the efforts of all parties, and the two transactions that Pelinka has made are actually balancing the trivialities between the present and the future, not just to meet the needs of a certain player

Then speaking of Pelinka, he has never been a person who will give up long-term goals, although the league is extremely competitive at the moment, there are countless teams aiming for a championship, the Lakers even if they are next to James, they can't promise too much, every decision may be deliberate, the Lakers' forward pace is not arbitrary, we have to trust their operation, maybe this deal can pave a new path for the future
The future is indeed full of challenges and opportunities for the Lakers, but if we look to the future, the loss of first-round picks will be distressing, but it also means that the team will get more room for mobility in the future, each trade balances the team's power structure, and also allows managers to be more flexible in dealing with the situation in the rapidly changing season, which is not only to meet short-term expectations, but also to lay the foundation for the long-term healthy development of the team. Often failing to take a long-term view, the Lakers' trade this time is actually fully preparing for the future strength reserves

We must firmly believe that whether it is Pelinka or James, everyone has their own goals, under the foresight of the team management, the Lakers still have unlimited possibilities, Lao Zhan is definitely worth more expectations, after all, as the core of the Lakers, he not only has to face the doubts of the outside world, but also shoulder the heavy responsibility of struggle, the future is still full of confidence for the Lakers, after all, the achievement of a championship is not a short-term recruitment, but every step of patient cultivation
In this way, we hope that everyone can change their perspective, and don't rush to say goodbye or spray Pelinka, isn't true greatness to rise in adversity? Maybe in the not-too-distant future, the Lakers will shine again and lead them to new heights, when you and I can proudly cheer for this team! In a word, don't worry, Pelinka knows in his heart, Lao Zhan is also working hard, and the future will definitely be more brilliant!
