: Six hundred and thirty-two. The threat posed by the Warriors

Durant and Westbrook... Liu Ren felt that they seemed to be a little divorced.
Liu Ren looked at the two first-generation Shuang Shao, or the combination of the San Shao, who seemed to have a very good relationship. He always felt that they were not as close as they seemed on the scene.
This is just a feeling. Liu Ren always feels that Durant has deliberately befriended himself, while Westbrook purely wants to get the treatment invited by Liu Ren that the legendary "superstar" can get.
The new year began to experience the first four easy games. After the Lakers achieved a record of three wins and one loss, they finally began to usher in another difficult schedule. The remaining 11 games this month include the Thunder, Warriors, Rockets, Spurs, Mavericks, Trailblazers, Jazz, Bulls, etc. Waiting for opponents, that is, almost half of the opponents are competing teams, and seven or eight opponents are teams competing for the playoffs in the East and the West.
The first opponent is home to the Thunder, which is now fourth in the West.
The Thunder are really desperate now. Their record is 23 wins and 14 losses. It is basically impossible to catch up with the Warriors, Lakers, and Spurs who have lost less than ten games, but because they are still strong in the same region. The Trail Blazers and the Jazz have a hard time making the playoffs. The Timberwolves and Nuggets even have no hope for the playoffs. Their division champions are more stable than the Warriors. They are not worried about falling out of the top four in the West. The team has no pressure at all. , As long as you don’t lose too much, there is no pressure to enter the playoffs as the fourth in the West, which makes many Thunder players almost lose their fighting spirit.
The Lakers have to keep from being overtaken by the 29-9 Spurs, and there are too many players who want to have a good future and get a good contract after the end of the year, and no one wants to lose any of them. In a game, unless it is a time of rest, there is really no way to lose strength, otherwise they will not lose any game.
This can be seen from the beginning of the Lakers and Thunder game.
The Lakers sent the strongest lineup of Antetokounmpo, Kobe, Liu Ren, Green, and Whiteside. The Thunder's lineup is much worse, Westbrook, Waiters, Durant, Ibaka, Adams.
Liu Ren and Antetokounmpo defended Westbrook and Durant respectively. The physical quality of the two is completely good, and even both have an advantage. Moreover, the other Thunder players really didn't give them much help. They were taken by the Lakers from the beginning. The team pressed and beat, the Lakers' defensive focus was on both of them. When the two were locked up by Liu Ren and Antetokounmpo, the Thunder basically had no other way.
From the beginning of the game, the Lakers have achieved a lead of more than ten.
After the Lakers played in the three quarters and completely established the lead, Liu Ren somewhat understood why Durant would feel close to Westbrook.
In addition, Durant had consulted with Pelinka about switching to Los Angeles or Oakland. Liu Ren had reason to believe that Durant wanted to leave the Thunder. To be honest, Liu Ren also felt that the Thunder team’s management was in addition to the draft. Good vision, the operation is really a bit scum...
...
...
The Lakers didn’t take much effort to beat the Thunder. It was not that Durant and Westbrook’s combination was not strong, but that the Lakers happened to have Liu Ren, the league's strongest defense breakthrough, and Antetokounm, who had the most advantage in shooting defense. Bo, just to restrain the Thunder's only two strong points, easily defeated the Thunder to get their 32nd victory this season.
However, defeating the Thunder has made Durant even more disappointed in his team, and Liu Ren has more concerns.
Although Durant and Curry are both players of their own company, but from the perspective of players, Durant and Curry's team is too strong to be in Liu Ren's interests.
After Liu Ren returned home from the game with Thunder, he immediately called the chick and the cold-faced beauty to discuss Durant's issues.
"Aren, you are worried that Durant will want to leave the Thunder to join the Warriors in the summer to form a super combination? Is this possible? The Warriors are already so strong, if the Thunder loses to the Warriors in the playoffs this year. Durant is not possible to go to the Warriors, right? I would rather believe that he would want to come to our Lakers or go to the Clippers." The little girl felt unreliable about Liu Ren's guess.
"This...maybe you are right. According to the forecast that next season's salary cap will be close to 100 million, except for Kobe, Green and Monroe, the salaries of other players in our team do not consider renewal. The highest is Gasol. 8.6 million. The salary cap I occupied before the renewal was 9 million. Antetokounmpo and LaVine are still on rookie contracts. Clarkson is not in a hurry to renew the contract and occupy less than two million. Whiteside has one more. The annual cheap contract, Kobe and Gasol are both diminishing contracts, plus several two-way contracts expire, next season, our salary may only be more than 7,000 close to 80 million, there is enough space to sign Durant, but I still think Durant didn't want to come to the Lakers that much. I took a look. The Warriors' salary situation is better than ours." Liu Ren analyzed.
"The boss is right. The Warriors' salary situation is simply great. Now only four have a salary of more than 10 million. Curry and Iguodala both have 11 million salaries. Bogut has only 12 million. Thompson will be paid next season. 17 million, and Bogut is a non-guaranteed contract next season. I think the Warriors will choose to buy out or trade. Bogut is basically of no help to the Warriors. After Bogut is gone, some contracts expire and the Warriors salary The bill is only 6,700. Even if the salary cap next season is only about 95 million, the Warriors can also provide Durant with a full maximum salary. There are backcourt combinations like Curry and Thompson, plus the Warriors are completely conducive to pitchers. France, the attractiveness of warriors is indeed stronger than ours." The cold-faced beauty analyzed.
Little girl looks at the data really like this~EbookFREE.me~ If Durant wants to go to the Warriors, then as a brokerage company, the little girl, Monica and the company’s group of brokerage teams can only follow Durant’s ideas. He went to the Warriors and got the largest contract and the largest image endorsement share, because no one would have trouble with money.
However, this is not in line with Liu Ren's interests.
If it really forms a combination of Curry, Thompson and Durant, then the strongest pitchers from point guard to small forward are all on the same team, so even if the Lakers retain their current lineup, It is not necessarily an opponent of the Warriors.
This is a huge threat to Liu Ren who wants to establish a dynasty.
"We have to persuade Durant not to go to the Warriors. I think the Knicks or the Clippers are also good choices. Durant should agree." The little girl thought for a while and said.
"No, I don't think it is so feasible to work from Durant." Liu Ren felt something after contacting Durant in the past two days. Durant doesn't seem to have such a big pursuit of money, because Durant takes After one year, there will be almost 20 million endorsement fees. The share of portrait rights and publicity shares obtained from the team is just drizzle. There is not much difference for Durant in Los Angeles, New York or San Francisco. "I think we should start with the Warriors lineup and break them up."
"Aren, do you want to work with Curry? The Lakers now have enough chips. As long as Curry is convinced by us, he wants to come to us. I think the Magicians will come up with enough chips."
"No, Curry can't come to take refuge in me, he wants to beat me more," Liu Ren knew Curry's character too well, "I think we can start from Barnes or Thompson..."
