The next odds are third! Who should the Lakers trade for the Celtics? Obviously Reeves is the preferred one

Will the Lakers trade Reeves this summer?

I think there are still possibilities.

First, contract. Next Xia Reeves has the right to break out of the contract. At present, there is no big surprise. The latter will definitely break out of the contract - he can make the annual salary more profitable. Who will give up such an opportunity?

For the Lakers, there is still one year left in the cheap use period, and there will be pressure to renew the contract in the future. But from another perspective, this cost-effective contract before renewal has the possibility of leveraging the All-Star.

Second, Dong Zhan. There is almost no possibility that the two of them will leave Los Angeles, but the problem is that the two have the right to break out of the contract and not complete the contract renewal for one day next day. Targeted reinforcement is undoubtedly a promoter for the two to renew their contracts in advance.

If you want to strengthen, or to be precise, greatly strengthen, then the only way is to trade Reeves. To take a step back, it is hard to say whether the league can keep the latter by jumping out of the contract tomorrow summer.

At the same time, according to the NBA China official website, the Celtics were already considering lineup restructuring before Tatum was injured, and in addition, if traded with Holiday will attract interest from multiple teams. Follow-up reports, Holiday's next odds were tied for first place with +200, Spurs +400, and Lakers +425.

Regional season, Holiday averaged 11.1 points, 4.3 rebounds and 3.9 assists per game. Regarding the data, it should be noted:

First, offensive end. First, 300 of 563 shots came from the three-point line, with a 35.3% shooting rate. Secondly, 67 times came from the pick-and-roll with a 0.90 point/round efficiency was better than 62.2% of the league's players.

Obviously, Holiday on the offensive end mainly uses fixed-point shooting, but also has certain ability to finish with the ball.

Second, defensive end. It accounts for 39.4% of the round defense three-pointers, limiting the opponent's shooting rate from 35.9% to 33.8%; accounting for 35.0% of the round defense is less than 6 feet, limiting the opponent's shooting rate from 63.5% to 61.3%.

In other words, whether facing the same position or changing the inside line, it is difficult for the opponent to gain advantage in front of Holiday. In fact, Holiday was selected as the second team of defensive team of the year together with Caruso, White, Sargers and McDaniels last season.

Comprehensive offense and defense at both ends, it is obvious that Holiday's characteristic is an integrated offense and defense. If the Celtics are going to trade the former, who should the Lakers trade. Reeves is preferred in my opinion.

Reason 1: Upgrade. To be precise, Holiday can do what Reeves can do, and Reeves can't do what the latter can do. In other words, trading Holiday with Reeves is an upgrade to the lineup.

Reason 2: Improve competitiveness. As I said just now, the Lakers' most valuable bargaining chip is Reeves, so if you want to stand out in the competition, you must take it out.

Of course, I think Holiday is still very suitable for Dong Zhan. On the one hand, the offense and defense characteristics are very clear; on the other hand, they have rich playoff experience. It is not impossible for Rondo to become the 20th season.

In the end, it is a pity to give up Reeves, but it is acceptable to exchange for Holiday.
