But Carlisle's entry made him feel completely different from before.

The top coach will change a team much more than you think.

The Lakers' defending title will be challenging.

But as before, it is interesting to have challenges.

The news about Carlisle signing the Wizards is in the midst of the hustle and bustle.

It is amid these discussions that the free market is approaching its end.

The Lakers completed their biggest signing before the free market gate closed.

They signed Antoine Walker for 31 million in 4 years!

Walker was still executing his max contract last season, with a salary of 14.63 million.

But the average annual salary of this new contract is less than 8 million.

Or in other words, the four-year salary of this new contract is almost the sum of his salary in the past two years.

Walker's market is small, but the Lakers will definitely make a profit at this price.

And what’s particularly interesting is that after the signing of this contract broke, the voices in the forum had a polar reversal within a few days!

"Stop talking about anything, Lakers champion!"

"Sun Hao, Finley, Ariza, Walker, O'Neal, and Payton, Christy, Horry, Juwan Howard, Mooning..."

"How come I have the illusion that the Lakers will win 65 next season?"

"Be bold, win 70!"

"Why don't you be bolder and break the Bulls' record with 73 wins?!"

"Wake up! You guys are behind the news. After the Lakers signed Walker, Juwan Howard jumped out of the contract and signed with the Wizards."

"Really or not?"

"Really, the news just now, 20 million in 3 years."

"But this is normal. Howard still has strength. Even if he was playing as a substitute last season, he sacrificed his life to compete for the championship. Now that he has a championship, he will definitely want something else."

"Well, I understand. The contract he signed last year was 1+1, which was originally a big contract. Now that the Lakers have chosen Walker, he will naturally go somewhere else."

"This is even more interesting. If the Wizards encounter the Lakers, Howard will face the old master."

...

Sun Hao also found it very interesting.

Because in history, Uncle Huo Ershi played with Yao Ming in this year, and averaged 11.8 points and 6.7 rebounds per game, making him a second spring.

Now Yao Ming is in the Wizards, he has also gone to the Wizards.

He really looks forward to what level this Wizards, which is very similar to Houston but more like the plus version, can play in the new season.

Shortly after the free market gate closed, the Lakers signed completely with new players, including Louis Williams, who performed well in the summer league.

Williams averaged 16.6 points per game in the summer league. Although the Lakers have some data because they don’t have a first-round pick, the management is already happy enough.

It is natural that signing a contract is reasonable.

However, when it comes to this summer league, the most amazing one is No. 1 pick Marvin Williams, who averaged 24.2 points, 5 rebounds, and 3.2 assists per game!

The summer league data may be just a look, but this can show that his immediate combat power is the strongest among this rookie.

Whether the Bobcats' choice is correct will take time to prove it, but at least the Bobcats fans are very happy at this time.

Okaforga Williams, with one offense and one defense in the interior, and with Gerald Wallace, the Bobcats can develop another outside line, making it no dream to enter the playoffs.

At this time, I have to mention the second-level Bogut.

This center who previously claimed to be the No. 1 pick in front of the media, experienced an extremely embarrassing summer league.

The Bucks' record in the Long Beach Summer League was 1 win and 4 losses, and they were eliminated early and did not play in the playoffs.

Bogut participated in all 5 games, with an average of 11.3 points and 9.9 rebounds per game.

The data is not very impressive, but it is worth mentioning that in the fourth game, he was directly expelled from the court because of a conflict with Pacers center John Edwards.

Before the deportation, he made 1 of 7 shots and barely scored 6 points with free throws, but he had 4 fouls.

It is not difficult to see the reason for the conflict from these data.

However, Bogut's words once again made him the focus of fans' attention.

"This penalty is ridiculous, but I just need a rest."

I am the No. 1 pick, and the penalty is ridiculous. Before the regular season was officially played, Bogut had already made fans remember him.

What's more interesting is that after Bogut was expelled, the Bucks beat the Pacers 79-72 to win their first summer league victory.

Before this, they suffered a three-game losing streak.
