Chapter 467:

Originally, the Lakers had many options this summer.
For example, like another time and space, in this season, he fell out with the Heat and chose to leave the team Dwyane Wade.
However, the Lakers did not do that. Wade is still very old. Although he still has the strength, he has no future. The next two years of league contract is about to expire, and the Lakers' current salary space can completely pursue a top star.
According to a media gossip, the Lakers have shown great interest in the Kings superstar James Harden, whose contract expires next summer.
Harden led his team to the Finals last season, and he also played extremely luxurious statistics, becoming a veritable first shooting guard in the league.
Although Saramento and Los Angeles belong to California, it is still the seat of the state capital, but after all, there is still no big city like Los Angeles. The temptation of the Lakers giants is really not what ordinary players can resist.
What's more, there are now known as the future in the Lakers...or Hao Peng, who is now the league's first center, has a strong, offensive and defensive small forward Butler.
Whether you want a more comfortable life or want to win the championship, Los Angeles is the best choice.
It is worth mentioning that in early July, LeBron James and the Cavaliers just reached a two-year contract, the second year is a player option.
In other words, by next summer, James will also become a free agent, and the Lakers can choose one of the two James.
What makes Wang Xiao a little funny is that James actually signed a two-year contract with the Cavaliers, and he was still a player option for the second year.
In another time and space, after leading the team in a 1:3 reversal in the 15-16 season and defeating the Warriors to win the championship, James and the Cavaliers should have signed a three-year contract worth 100 million US dollars.
But now the three-year contract has become two-year, it seems that at this time, James is worried about leaving.
But funny is funny. If Wang Xiao is the Lakers management, he will definitely choose LeBron James without hesitation.
Harden turned strong, there are still many flaws, especially every time the performance of the playoffs, always make people very speechless.
In this regard, your uncle is still your uncle.
Even if James is now 32 years old, even a few years later, he will still be able to show almost terrifying dominance, and he won't lose money after signing.
Of course, if the Lakers really sign James, then Wang Xiao will be careful.
Hao Peng + James + Butler's lethality can be far better than the Cavaliers Big Four, that is not a joke.
After thinking about it, Wang Xiao felt that the Lakers should better sign Harden, or at least deal better with it.
...
The Bucks had more wins and fewer losses in the preseason, mainly because of Embiid's play.
Knowing that Embiid is a glass man, Wang Xiao was very careful when using him, and only arranged about 25 minutes of playing time per game.
But Embiid's efficiency is amazing. In just 25 minutes, he can average 20+10 per game, which surprised many fans.
Wang Xiao is notorious for turning stones into gold. Embiid is the only player who has been criticized by fans after his selection these years.
Participated in the draft in 14 years, the season was reimbursed for two full years, and did not officially come back until 2016.
This is already the worst player selected by Wang Xiao. Before that, not many people were optimistic about Embiid's performance. After all, a professional athlete has been reimbursed for two full years due to injury. How much is left in his condition?

But now Embiid's performance in the preseason has once again confirmed that Wang Xiao's vision will never go wrong.
After the preseason, the regular season immediately followed suit. On October 26, the Bucks ushered in the first game of the regular season.
The Bucks' opponent in the first regular season is the old opponent Washington Wizards.
In the Eastern Conference finals last season, the Bucks eliminated the Wizards and advanced to the finals. The Eastern Conference Finals between the two teams is considered to be the highest level matchup in the entire playoffs, which is in stark contrast to the Bucks beating the Kings in the finals. .
If there is any team in this league that can stop Wang Xiao's Bucks, it is the Wizards he has coached.
...
This summer, the Wizards did not have any reinforcements. Instead, power forward Ryan Anderson was also poached by a team with a four-year contract of 80 million yuan. As a last resort, the Wizards could only sign Jeff Green for one year with 15 million yuan. The forward position.
Ryan Anderson changed to Jeff Green. This is undoubtedly a weakening of the striker, but there is no way.
George and Leonard’s annual salary is close to 20 million, and Curry is as high as 25 million.
The total salary of the three has reached 65 million, plus Green's 15 million, it has reached an astonishing 80 million!
Even if the salary cap skyrocketed in the new season, it was only about 94 million. The remaining players could not get the basic salary. The Wizards even had to save money and prepare for leaving Gobert next summer.
With the skyrocketing salary cap, the better power forwards on the market are now approaching 20 million, and they have to pay long contracts. The Wizards have nothing to do.
Even without any reinforcement, the Wizards' lineup is still the best in the league. Curry and George Leonard can crush most of the league's teams, not including the Bucks.
Players from the two teams came on the stage. The Bucks started with five players, point guard Giannis Antetokounmpo, shooting guard Klay Thompson, small forward Kevin Durant, power forward Joel Embiid , Center Nikola Jokic.
The Wizards started with five players, point guard Stephen Curry, shooting guard Paul George, small forward Kawaii Leonard, power forward Jeff Green, center Rudy Gobert.
Just looking at this lineup, Wang Xiao had already figured out how to play.
First, like last season, attack Curry.
Second, staring at another weakness of the Wizards, Jeff Green played.
In fact, Green is better defensively than Ryan Anderson last season, but the offense is not as good as Anderson, but the defense depends on who the defense is.
In front of Embiid, Green is a bad defense type.
In the first quarter of the game, the Bucks played the best here is Thompson and Embiid.
Curry couldn't defend against Antetokounmpo, so he could only switch to Thompson with his teammates, but he was also very difficult to defend against Thompson Curry. Thompson found several opportunities. He made 3 of 5 shots in the first quarter and 2 of 3 three-pointers. 2 of 2 free throws scored 10 points.
Although Embiid is the first show in an NBA official game, he has absolutely nothing to do with what a rookie should have.
In fact, after two years of work on the bench, Embiid has long been suffocated!
Now that he is finally able to play, Embiid has been extremely active, constantly asking for the ball to play Green.
If he doesn't want to be active, he can't do it. His four-year rookie contract now has only two years left. If he can't play his worth in the next two seasons, his big contract will fly away!
