迈克·布朗揭露了詹姆斯·哈登在休斯顿火箭队时期的弱点 在第一场比赛的赛后会议上，迈克·布朗解释了勇士队在季后赛与休斯顿队的比赛中如何试图耗尽詹姆斯·哈登的双腿。 “当我在金州勇士队对阵休斯敦队时，我们统计了詹姆斯·哈登的运球次数。我们告诉我们的球员，他每场比赛运球次数接近 1000 次，”布朗说道。 他补充道，“继续全场防守他，让他运球。比赛结束时，这会让他疲惫不堪。” 问题的关键不仅仅在于哈登在火箭队的旧用。布朗正在解释为什么当一个高产量的创造者必须携带控球权、防守重复的动作并承受比赛后期的压力时，疲劳很重要。 金州勇士队对阵休斯顿的计划是建立在消耗的基础上的。哈登仍然可以得分，但每次控球都迫使他在到达自己喜欢的位置之前花费更多的精力。布朗看到同样的想法在第一场比赛中再次发挥作用。 资料来源：[https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/mike-brown-admits-exusing-james-100000615.html](https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/mike-brown-admits-exusing-james-100000615.html)

来自 The Athletic 的贾里德·韦斯 (Jared Weiss) 的精彩（免费！）文章，谈论了马刺队的传奇人物如何仍在这座大楼里，波普如何与蒂姆·邓肯一起进行康复治疗，以及波普在本赛季的大部分时间里仍然在幕后工作，包括在季后赛中变得更加活跃。 这篇文章有一些有趣的亮点，但整篇文章值得一读： >“他是这一整年的重要组成部分，”新秀卡特·布莱恩特告诉The Athletic。 “这真是太棒了。并不是每个人都有有史以来最伟大的教练坐在他们的腿上。我只是尽我所能地接受它。” >20 岁的科比在季后赛中表现出色，足以在 62 场胜利的竞争者中占据轮换席位，经常击败 2015 年 NBA 冠军哈里森·巴恩斯 (Harrison Barnes)。科比从未为波普效力，只是在秋天才与波普队见面。但他很快就找到了这位传奇教练作为资源，而埃尔杰夫对他来说不仅是这样，而且还有更多。 >“有时他在比赛结束后很快给我打电话，我们还在更衣室里，我什至无法接听，”科比说。 “他几乎每场比赛结束后都会给我发短信。我可能每周和他通三次电话。” >科比并不孤单。波波维奇整个赛季都在与每个球员建立或维持关系，这在球队内部是一个公开的秘密。他每天都会与马刺队效力时间最长的球员凯尔登·约翰逊交谈。二年级后卫斯蒂芬·卡斯尔经常向波波维奇寻求建议并帮助他度过这个赛季。无论他们为波波维奇效力七年还是七天，他都被锁定在他们身边。 >“这很有趣，因为你听说过他对球员很严厉的故事，而且显然他不是我的主教练，所以我没有得到同样的经历，”科比说。 “但我想，‘你在说什么？’这家伙是最可爱、最友善的人。他很傻。” 最近，波波维奇开始更多地从阴影中走出来。球员们已经开始期待，当他们在圣安东尼奥时，任何时候他们上班时，波波维奇都可能在那里。马刺队首席执行官 RC 布福德表示，波波维奇每周至少去健身房四次，进行中风康复，经常与蒂姆·邓肯或其他马刺传奇人物一起到访。 >“这就是为什么随着波普的中风康复，蒂姆每天都和他一起去健身房，而这并不是因为波普让他去那里，”布福德上个月告诉The Athletic。 “这是因为蒂姆感受到了情感上的联系，想要在那里，就像波普在他身边一样。任何时候人们在城里，他们都会在那里。” 资料来源：https://www.nba.com/news/greg-popovich-mentors-spurs-through-rise

https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7242131/2026/05/18/detroit-pistons-nba-playoffs-2026-offseason-future/ 现在焦点转移到休赛期，底特律需要做出决定——最重要的是，在杰伦·杜伦和活塞队无法在赛季前就新秀续约达成一致后，如何处理他的受限制自由球员。杜伦在经历了职业生涯的一年后，在季后赛中表现严重不佳。 季后赛中他场均仅得到10.2分和8.5个篮板，命中率为51.4%，与他第一次入选全明星时的19.5分和10.5个篮板和65%的命中率相去甚远。 杜伦在整个常规赛中显然是活塞队的第二得分选择，但在季后赛中他看起来就像是一个空壳，首先被小温德尔·卡特和贾勒特·艾伦击败。比克斯塔夫偶尔会向保罗·里德寻求增援，甚至在整个第四节和加时赛中让杜伦替补上场[在第五场比赛](https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7277856/2026/05/13/cavaliers-pistons-game-5-nba-playoffs/)。 虽然他的第二次季后赛经历无疑令人失望，但底特律将在这个休赛期努力留住这位费城人，只是速度低于预期。杜伦可以入选NBA最佳阵容，这将使他有资格获得一份为期五年的顶薪合同，价值相当于工资帽的30%。考虑到他在季后赛的表现，联盟普遍认为他几乎没有任何筹码来谈判顶薪。

https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7290616/2026/05/19/victor-wembanyama-spurs-thunder-game-1/ --- 首先，开始。似乎没有人在谈论这一点，但比赛开始两分钟后，令人惊奇的事情发生了：雷霆将亚历克斯·卡鲁索送上得分手台，取代以赛亚·哈滕斯坦。如果你还记得的话，哈滕斯坦是雷霆队在 2024 年夏天收购的关键自由球员，这使得他们成为 NBA 冠军。根据我的衡量标准，他是一名身价 3200 万美元的球员，被评为联盟前 15 名中锋之一。 --- 在对阵温班亚马的比赛中，该系列赛第一场比赛开始两分钟后，64胜的卫冕冠军雷霆队意识到他们的一名精英球员无法上场。哈滕施泰因可以做很多事情，但他无法拉开球场空间，而且——正如明尼苏达森林狼队和波特兰开拓者队已经发现的那样——这对于一个与温巴尼亚马比赛的大个子来说基本上是致命的，因为温巴尼亚马只会坐在油漆区，独自摧毁整个进攻。 周一晚上他们花了两分钟，但雷霆甚至在比赛开始之前就知道情况可能就是这样。 “我认为很明显，这就是我们的计划，”俄克拉荷马城教练马克·戴尼奥特说，“就是让（哈滕施泰因）很快陷入困境，让卡鲁索上场。我们有点预先确定了这一点。我不知道我能多快做到这一点。” --- 在剩下的比赛中，哈滕施泰因在对阵温巴尼亚马的进攻中没有上场一秒钟。雷霆队只在替补中锋卢克·科内特上场时才让他上场——当晚剩下的时间一共上场了 10 分钟——因为这是唯一能让哈滕施泰因成为一名正常中锋的时间。雷霆队在下半场开始时由卡森华莱士代替哈滕施泰因，人们想象他们也会以这种方式开始第二场比赛。 --- 根据 NBA.com 的数据，马刺队的进攻篮板率为 36.8%，而雷霆队的进攻篮板率仅为 21%。

​ 两轮过后，谢伊·吉尔吉斯-亚历山大和俄克拉荷马城雷霆队似乎有望轻松重返 NBA 总决赛。 相反，在连续横扫菲尼克斯太阳队和洛杉矶湖人队之后，雷霆队在周一晚上以 122-115 输给了圣安东尼奥马刺队，在西部决赛第一场比赛中落败。 本周连续第二次获得 MVP 的吉尔吉斯-亚历山大度过了一个悲惨的夜晚，在这场失利中，他 23 投 7 中得到 24 分。他糟糕的表现揭示了一个令人惊讶的统计数据。 《NBA 世界》比较谢伊·吉尔吉斯-亚历山大、卢卡·东契奇 吉尔吉斯-亚历山大本赛季季后赛场均贡献28.6分、7.7次助攻和3.0个篮板，但和上赛季一样，他在三分线外表现不佳（命中率31.6%），尽管雷霆在季后赛九场比赛中赢了八场，但他还是度过了几个艰难的夜晚。 根据 Underdog Sports 的报道，“谢伊·吉尔吉斯-亚历山大在今年的季后赛中的净得分为 -35.6”，这是“仍在季后赛中的所有合格球员中的最低分数”。 NBA 世界接受了这一信息并进行传播，一些人将吉尔吉斯-亚历山大与湖人队球星卢卡·东契奇的另一位 MVP 候选人进行了比较。 来源：https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/luka-don-never-fake-mvp-202823165.html

我们都知道温比和切特互相憎恨。除了常规赛结束时的盖帽外，切特在今晚对阵温比的第一场比赛中再次消失，拿下8分、7个篮板和2个盖帽。 每当他们比赛时，温比就真正统治了他，他拿下 41 分 22 个篮板的惊人两双。 [https://www.espn.com/nba/boxscore/\_/gameId/401873197](https://www.espn.com/nba/boxscore/_/gameId/401873197)

贾森·基德 (Jason Kidd) 在达拉斯小牛队执教五个赛季后，不再担任主教练，周二晚间，球队称这是共同决定。 消息人士告诉 ESPN，基德的合同还剩四年，价值超过 4000 万美元。但小牛队州长帕特里克·杜蒙特在拒绝纽约尼克斯队采访基德的请求后，在 2024 年达拉斯总决赛期间和上个赛季之前再次延长了基德的合同，并授予新总裁马赛·乌杰里完全授权来决定教练在球队的未来。 乌杰里在一份声明中表示：“当我们评估篮球计划的未来时，我们相信现在是为我们球队制定新方向的最佳时机。” “我们对这支球队抱有很高的期望，并有责任建立一个能够持续争夺冠军的篮球组织。 “我们将对我们的下一任主教练进行彻底、严格的搜寻，并继续评估我们整个篮球运营人员，以确保我们按照小牛球迷期望和应得的标准进行竞争。” 消息人士称，在总经理尼科·哈里森(Nico Harrison)去年11月被解雇后，基德曾表示希望晋升为篮球运营总裁，但杜蒙特几个月前告诉基德，他不会被考虑担任管理层。 消息人士称，在乌吉里被聘用的过程中，基德被排除在外。 资料来源：[https://www.espn.com/nba/story/\_/id/48820152/jason-kidd-mavericks-coach- Five-seasons](https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/48820152/jason-kidd-mavericks-coach- Five-seasons)

洛杉矶湖人队球星勒布朗·詹姆斯刚刚结束了他在 NBA 的第 23 个赛季，目前尚不清楚他是否会在 2026-27 赛季重返联盟征战第 24 个赛季。 这位41岁的球员仍然保持着高水平的发挥，他在2025-26赛季入选全明星，并帮助湖人队获得了西部第四的种子。然而，在职业生涯的现阶段，詹姆斯似乎并不是 NBA 赛季的最大粉丝。 与沃布共度深夜。 NBA 季后赛赛后秀。勒布朗的最后一场比赛？ @PlayProphetX https://t.co/fzRVjNeKgn — 罗布·佩雷斯 (@WorldWideWob) 2026 年 5 月 12 日 NBA 名人罗布·佩雷斯 (Rob Perez) 表示：“据我所知，他职业生涯中最不喜欢的部分就是冬天的旅行以及远离家人的长途旅行。” 佩雷斯继续说道。 “如果说我对他了解的一件事我愿意分享的话——我告诉你，我确实知道一些事情——那就是他不再喜欢旅行了，”佩雷斯说。 “如果他能在家里打完所有比赛，他可能会永远打球。” 在湖人队在季后赛第二轮第四场输给俄克拉荷马城雷霆队之后，詹姆斯表示，在决定职业生涯下一步要做什么之前，他会花一些时间与家人在一起。 勒布朗·詹姆斯谈他的未来： “我不知道我的未来会怎样……我会回去和我的家人重新调整，和他们谈谈，花一些时间和他们在一起，到时候，你们就会知道我决定做什么。”pic.twitter.com/zTpxHWi00T - 失败者 NBA (@UnderdogNBA) 2026 年 5 月 12 日 尽管詹姆斯仍然是一名伟大的 NBA 球员，但如果他不想应对 82 场 NBA 常规赛所带来的一切，他可能会选择退出比赛。在NBA打了这么长时间之后，如果他想有更多的时间陪伴家人和孩子们成长（甚至在湖人队的名单上就有一个孩子），这是可以理解的。 本赛季，詹姆斯为湖人队出战60场常规赛，场均贡献20.9分、6.1个篮板和7.2次助攻，投篮命中率为51.5%，三分球命中率为31.7%。季后赛他的表现也很强劲，场均贡献23.2分、6.7个篮板和7.3次助攻。 湖人队在季后赛首轮六场比赛中淘汰了休斯敦火箭队，卢卡·东契奇（腿筋）没有参加该系列赛，而奥斯汀·里维斯（斜线）只在第5场和第6场比赛中出场。詹姆斯是湖人队在系列赛中以3-0领先的主力，他帮助湖人队在里维斯和东契奇出局后锁定了西部第四种子。 如果詹姆斯确实决定重返NBA，那么湖人队似乎对他重返球队很感兴趣。 罗布·佩林卡表示球队希望勒布朗·詹姆斯和奥斯汀·里维斯都回来 pic.twitter.com/mpMlPUJUrD - 湖人日报 (@LakersDailyCom) 2026 年 5 月 12 日 詹姆斯自2018-19赛季以来一直效力于湖人队，并帮助湖人队

前 NBA 后卫拉沙德·麦坎茨分享了他对 NBA 偶像勒布朗·詹姆斯在洛杉矶湖人队在西部半决赛中被俄克拉荷马城雷霆队淘汰出局后的赛季的看法。 “必须给他送花，”麦坎茨说。 “他为联盟做了很多。他为年轻球员做了很多。但是，从本质上讲，胜利对我来说是一个衡量标准。所以，我会给他一个 C。我想 - 我对那些追逐 G.O.A.T.（有史以来最伟大）的人期望更多。这是你可以比较的最高标准。所以，你必须始终超越所有人。没有休息。没有借口。不乏问责制。” 麦坎茨确实对詹姆斯在季后赛首轮击败休斯敦火箭队的表现给予了赞扬，这位明星前锋在没有其他球星奥斯汀·里维斯和卢卡·东契奇的情况下完成了这一任务。在里维斯最终在第五场和第六场比赛中回归之前，湖人队在那轮系列赛中以3-0领先。 但这位退役后卫还表示，詹姆斯的表现不值得称赞，因为湖人队在西部半决赛中被雷霆队横扫。 公平地说，麦坎茨的论点是一致的，他补充说，迈克尔·乔丹、科比·布莱恩特等球员在职业生涯后期也未能完成这项工作。 虽然麦坎茨可能认为詹姆斯仍在追逐G.O.A.T.考虑到这位 41 岁的球员在 2025-26 赛季的表现，很难低估他的表现。詹姆斯再次入选全明星，场均贡献20.9分、6.1个篮板和7.2次助攻，投篮命中率为51.5%，三分命中率为31.7%。 然后，在季后赛中，在东契奇（腿筋）缺阵的情况下，他加强了比赛，场均贡献23.2分、6.7个篮板和7.3次助攻。有人可能会说詹姆斯是湖人队季后赛中最好的球员。 麦坎茨对詹姆斯进行了很多攻击，包括低估了他在 2019-20 赛季湖人队夺冠中所扮演的角色。不过，湖人球迷不必太担心麦坎茨对本赛季的想法，因为他在 2005 年 NBA 选秀中以第 14 顺位被选中后，只在 NBA 打了几个赛季。 与此同时，詹姆斯仍然保持着极高的水平，并可能在 2026-27 赛季回归，开启他的第 24 个 NBA 赛季。 山羊争论可能会持续到最后，但这位湖人球星无疑是有史以来最伟大的球员之一，他有很多荣誉可以证明这一点。 希望詹姆斯能够在 2026-27 赛季重返联盟，继续为他的传奇增添光彩。在即将到来的休赛期，他将成为一名不受限制的自由球员，在与球队度过了过去的八个赛季后，他有​​可能不会回到湖人队。 这位前 NBA 职业球员谈勒布朗的赛季：“我对某人有更多的期望……追逐 G.O.A.T”，首先出现在《湖人日报》上。

一位 NBA 高管称洛杉矶湖人队在 2025-26 赛季对中锋德安德烈·艾顿的实验是一场“灾难”。 据《重型体育》报道，这位高管表示：“他担任这个角色的时间简直就是一场灾难。” “艾顿的问题是，他通常所做的足以让他的球队认为他会向前迈出一步。然后他就再也没有向前迈出一步，你就会再次经历这一切。 “湖人队在常规赛中对他所做的一切都是为了让他在季后赛中发挥作用。就像，只是有用的——接球、篮板、在油漆区移动。做到这一点，他们的整个艾顿实验就会成功。但他并没有那么做。灾难。” 艾顿曾是状元秀，在被波特兰开拓者队买断后，在 2025-26 赛季前与湖人队签约。湖人队以相对便宜的价格签下了艾顿，但他在洛杉矶的第一个赛季并没有达到新的高度。 这位27岁的球员常规赛场均贡献12.5分和8.0个篮板，投篮命中率为67.1%。尽管艾顿效率很高，但他在NBA职业生涯中第一次未能获得场均两双。 在10场季后赛中，艾顿场均上场28.5分钟，场均仅得到10.0分和9.6个篮板。在一些关键时刻他并不在场。即使明星后卫卢卡·东契奇缺席洛杉矶整个季后赛，艾顿也无法在得分手方面向前迈出一步。 艾顿拥有 2026-27 赛季的球员选项，因此尚不清楚他是否会回到湖人队。这位前状元可以选择签订合同，以保证下赛季自己超过800万美元，但他也可以选择以自由球员的身份测试公开市场。 即使艾顿决定选择加入，也不能保证他会在下赛季开始时加入湖人队，因为球队可能会探索交易他的选择，以升级阵容。 虽然上述 NBA 高管认为艾顿的实验是一场灾难，但这位 27 岁的球员确实为洛杉矶队出场了 72 场比赛，这让洛杉矶队在这个位置上有了一定的稳定性。在2024-25赛季交易走明星大个子安东尼·戴维斯后，湖人队迫切需要在中锋位置上找到答案，并尝试了艾顿。 湖人队本赛季只进入了季后赛第二轮，但令人印象深刻的是，他们甚至在东契奇和同为球星奥斯汀·里维斯都受伤的情况下赢得了一场季后赛系列赛。 湖人队在这个休赛期必须做出很多决定，艾顿的未来就是其中之一，特别是如果他决定选择目前的合同的话。 NBA 后高管对湖人队的德安德烈·艾顿实验投下了真相炸弹：“灾难”首先出现在《湖人日报》上。

前 NBA 球员钱宁·弗莱 (Channing Frye) 认为，如果洛杉矶湖人队巨星勒布朗·詹姆斯 (LeBron James) 在这个休赛期退役，他将不会在 Crypto.com Arena 外获得雕像。 弗莱在詹姆斯的 NBA 职业生涯中与他并肩作战，他向詹姆斯的另一位前队友肯德里克·帕金斯解释了为什么他不相信这会发生。 “不，”弗莱在被问及这个问题时说道。 “我并不是说他不应该得到一个。我是说他不会得到一个。” 弗莱继续说道。 “他们不接受他，”他说。 “湖人球迷不接受他。他在湖人队的职业生涯比大多数其他球员都要好……他们就是不接受他。” 詹姆斯自2018-19赛季以来一直效力于湖人队，并在2019-20赛季带领球队夺得总冠军。湖人队在这位四届总冠军的带领下多次进入季后赛，尽管他们只赢得了一次总冠军。 尽管如此，詹姆斯在 2019-20 赛季的联盟 MVP 投票中排名第二，并在湖人队六场击败迈阿密热火队后被评为总决赛 MVP。他在季后赛中场均贡献27.6分、10.8个篮板和8.8次助攻。 本赛季，詹姆斯帮助湖人队在季后赛首轮对阵休斯敦火箭队的比赛中晋级，尽管卢卡·东契奇缺席了球队的整个季后赛，而奥斯汀·里维斯则缺席了前四场比赛。 詹姆斯表明，即使已经41岁了，他仍然有很大的潜力，在2025-26赛季的季后赛中场均贡献23.2分、6.7个篮板和7.3次助攻。 Crypto.com 球馆外有几位湖人传奇人物的雕像，詹姆斯在洛杉矶期间无疑产生了深远的影响。他不仅帮助球队打破了冠军荒，而且让球队一直保持在西部季后赛的位置。在詹姆斯到来之前，湖人队自2012-13赛季以来就没有进入过季后赛。 此外，在他任职期间，他还打破了无数记录，包括成为NBA历史得分王。 这个休赛期，詹姆斯将成为一名不受限制的自由球员，如果他选择继续他的 NBA 职业生涯，他可以选择加入另一支球队。然而，如果他留在湖人队，很可能只会增加他在球队的遗产。 希望每当詹姆斯决定结束他童话般的职业生涯时，湖人队都会向他为紫金军团所做的一切表示敬意。 查宁·弗莱在洛杉矶看不到勒布朗的雕像：“他们不接受他”的帖子首先出现在《湖人日报》上。

NBA journalist Bill Reiter recently claimed that Los Angeles Lakers stars LeBron James and Luka Doncic “don’t get along very well.” "I know (LeBron and Luka) don't get along very well. (LeBron) doesn't do well when he's in a locker room that's toxic. I would imagine that being in Cleveland with James Harden who he's close to, with Donovan Mitchell…I just think it would be a happier place for LeBron as a… https://t.co/jP3ciAsVGI pic.twitter.com/XgU78kSZNx — 92.3 The Fan (@923TheFan) May 11, 2026 Reiter seems to think that James would be happier in a different situation if he were to return for a 24th NBA season in the 2026-27 campaign, but a recent report suggests that he likes being in Los Angeles. Right now, James’ future is up in the air, as the four-time champion is set to be an unrestricted free agent if he decides that he wants to continue his storied career. There is always a chance that James will retire, though the All-Star forward still is playing at such a high level that it may be tough for him to walk away from the game. During the 2025-26 regular season, James averaged 20.9 points, 6.1 rebounds and 7.2 assists per game while shooting 51.5 percent from the field and 31.7 percent from 3. He then followed that up with a strong playoff run, averaging 23.2 points, 6.7 rebounds and 7.3 assists per game, leading the Lakers to the second round. Doncic missed the entire postseason run for Los Angeles, as he suffered a hamstring injury in early April and was unable to return to the team. As a result, the Lakers were swept in the second round of the playoffs by the defending champion Oklahoma City Thunder. Reiter seems to think that the relationship between Doncic and James isn’t great, but the Lakers still played well with both players in the 2025-26 season, finishing with the No. 4 seed in the Western Conference. James accepted a smaller role as the third option behind Doncic and Austin Reaves, and it’s possible he will do the same thing in the 2026-27 season if he wishes to return. The Lakers have a lot of decisions to make in the offseason, but it’s hard to see them finding a player that is better than James to add to their roster without making a trade. Lakers general manager Rob Pelinka has already made it clear that the Lakers want Reaves and James on the roster in the 2026-27 season, so it seems like a return is a viable option for the four-time league MVP.

前NBA球员埃迪·约翰逊拥有漫长的NBA职业生涯，他最近为洛杉矶湖人队巨星勒布朗·詹姆斯辩护。 另一位前NBA球员拉沙德·麦坎茨最近批评詹姆斯和湖人队在季后赛第二轮被俄克拉荷马城雷霆队横扫。 这是拉沙德与吉尔竞技场的每个人的对决，因为他们认为湖人队被横扫是令人尴尬的 “雷霆并没有做任何特别的事情来证明湖人队无法赢得2-3场比赛。湖人队不是一支训练有素的球队。” pic.twitter.com/mZHXrUNotR - 吉尔竞技场 (@GilsArenaShow) 2026 年 5 月 12 日 约翰逊在社交媒体上为这位41岁的前锋辩护，指出麦坎茨在2005年NBA选秀中以第14顺位被选中后，他的NBA职业生涯相当短暂。 24 岁时退出联盟，并痛斥 41 岁的他的失败。 - 埃迪·A·约翰逊 (@Jumpshot8) 2026 年 5 月 12 日 麦坎茨从2005-06赛季到2008-09赛季效力于NBA。他曾效力于明尼苏达森林狼队和萨克拉门托国王队，场均得到 10.0 分，投篮命中率为 43.1%。 这位前乐透秀经常批评詹姆斯，并认为这位未来的名人堂成员在洛杉矶任职期间未能成为第一选择。 虽然麦坎茨似乎认为詹姆斯和湖人队应该在第二轮中至少拿下卫冕冠军一场比赛，但值得注意的是，湖人队在整个系列赛中人手不足。 洛杉矶队失去了明星后卫卢卡·东契奇，他在常规赛中场均得到33.5分、7.7个篮板和8.3次助攻，投篮命中率为47.6%，三分命中率为36.6%。 东契奇在从腿筋伤势中恢复期间错过了湖人队的整个季后赛，这给詹姆斯和奥斯汀·里维斯带来了更大的压力，让他们为球队做出贡献。里维斯（斜线）也缺席了季后赛的前四场比赛，但湖人队在对阵休斯敦火箭队的比赛中凭借詹姆斯的强势发挥赢得了三场比赛。 四届总冠军詹姆斯是湖人队本赛季季后赛表现最好的球员，场均贡献 23.2 分、6.7 个篮板和 7.3 次助攻。在对阵雷霆队的四场比赛中，他场均得到23.3分，每场比赛至少得到19分。 湖人队——西部四号种子——最终无法与卫冕冠军并肩作战，后者在四场比赛中以两位数的优势赢得了三场比赛。尽管如此，考虑到东契奇没有参加一场季后赛，湖人队的表现还是相当令人印象深刻。 麦坎茨可能想继续质疑詹姆斯和湖人队，但约翰逊显然正确地看待了事情，他展示了詹姆斯在 41 岁时仍然是全明星级别的球员是多么令人印象深刻。 这位前NBA球员因仇恨勒布朗而对拉沙德·麦坎茨开枪，这首先出现在《湖人日报》上。

前 NBA 后卫拉沙德·麦坎茨 (Rashad McCants) 最近对洛杉矶湖人队球星勒布朗·詹姆斯 (LeBron James) 进行了批评，声称他在球队任职期间没有完成作为第一选择的工作。 詹姆斯在 2019-20 赛季随湖人队赢得了总冠军，但麦坎茨在这个问题上受到质疑时淡化了这一点。正如湖人球迷肯定记得的那样，詹姆斯在总冠军之旅中获得了总决赛 MVP 荣誉。 “当时冠状病毒是第一选择，”麦坎茨在谈到湖人队 2020 年总冠军时说道。 尽管 2019-20 NBA 赛季与以往不同，但湖人队仍然以西部第一种子身份进入季后赛，而詹姆斯是该赛季 NBA 最好的球员之一。 他入选了NBA最佳阵容，并在联盟MVP投票中名列第二，场均得到25.3分、7.8个篮板和NBA最高的10.2次助攻。季后赛中，他场均贡献27.6分、10.8个篮板和8.8次助攻，迈向第四枚总冠军戒指。 麦坎茨显然想抹黑湖人队在 2019-20 赛季的冠军头衔，但联盟佛罗里达州奥兰多泡沫中的每支球队在季后赛中都面临着基本相同的情况。不仅如此，在本赛季因 COVID-19 大流行而暂停之前，湖人队是联盟中最好的球队之一。 詹姆斯和安东尼·戴维斯在 2019-20 赛季的季后赛中都为湖人队带来了巨大的帮助，洛杉矶队几乎统治了所面对的每支球队。它只输给了波特兰开拓者队一场比赛，输给了休斯敦火箭队一场比赛，输给了丹佛掘金队一场比赛，然后在总决赛的六场比赛中击败了吉米·巴特勒和迈阿密热火队。 本赛季，湖人队在季后赛中遭遇失败，但这并不是詹姆斯的错。奥斯汀·里维斯和卢卡·东契奇的受伤影响了湖人队整个季后赛，尽管里维斯在季后赛最后六场比赛中回归。 詹姆斯的表现依然出色，季后赛场均贡献23.2分6.7篮板7.3助攻。这位41岁的球员带领湖人队在第一轮击败了休斯敦火箭队，然后在西部半决赛中被俄克拉荷马城雷霆队横扫。 无论麦坎茨对湖人队 2020 年总冠军有何看法，球迷们都知道詹姆斯的表现是打破洛杉矶队冠军荒的推动力。 拉沙德·麦坎茨（Rashad McCants）关于勒布朗在 2020 年角色的帖子标题：“冠状病毒是第一选择”首先出现在《湖人日报》上。

Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James is entering the offseason as an unrestricted free agent, and his future in the NBA is truly up in the air. James could return to the Lakers for his 24th NBA season, but he also could explore his options elsewhere with the Lakers clearly moving toward the Luka Doncic era. In addition to that, the 41-year-old has not committed to returning to the NBA in the 2026-27 season, meaning he could decide to retire. However, one source close to James seems to think that the ball is in the Lakers’ court when it comes to their partnership. “I think it’s up to the Lakers,” the source told ESPN. “He loves it in L.A.” James has been with the Lakers since the start of the 2018-19 season, and he brought the franchise a title in the 2019-20 campaign, winning against the Miami Heat in the Finals in the NBA’s Orlando, Fla. bubble. This season, James was named an All-Star once again, and he finished the regular season averaging 20.9 points, 6.1 rebounds and 7.2 assists per game while shooting 51.5 percent from the field and 31.7 percent from 3. While James was no longer the No. 1 option in Los Angeles this season when the team was healthy, he showed that he could play alongside Doncic and Austin Reaves while taking on a lesser role in the offense. That helped the Lakers go on a major run in the second half of the 2025-26 season, and they eventually secured the No. 4 spot in the Western Conference. Then, with Reaves missing four playoff games and Doncic missing L.A.’s entire postseason run, James took his game to another level. He averaged 23.2 points, 6.7 rebounds and 7.3 assists per game in the playoffs and led the Lakers to a series victory over the Houston Rockets in the first round. While Los Angeles was swept by the defending champion Oklahoma City Thunder in the second round, James still averaged 23.3 points per game in that series. The Lakers have a lot of decisions to make in the offseason, especially if they want to build a team that can contend for a title. If James is in those plans, it appears that he has a desire to remain in Los Angeles. However, the Lakers could look to pivot elsewhere, even though James was still extremely effective in the 2025-26 season.

据报道，洛杉矶湖人队球星勒布朗·詹姆斯对总经理罗布·佩林卡在三月底战胜克利夫兰骑士队后做出的决定并不满意。 3月31日，湖人队以127-113击败骑士队，詹姆斯获得职业生涯第1,229场胜利，超越传奇人物卡里姆·阿卜杜尔·贾巴尔，成为NBA历史上获胜场次最多的球员（常规赛和季后赛）。除此之外，湖人队队友八村塁和卢卡·东契奇也在这场比赛中完成了重要的里程碑。 东契奇的职业生涯得分达到了 15,000 分，而八村塁则在这场胜利中达到了 5,000 分大关。尽管如此，据 ESPN 的戴夫·麦克梅纳明 (Dave McMenamin) 报道，佩林卡赛后在更衣室所做的事情再次表明詹姆斯感觉球队把他视为理所当然。 麦克梅纳明写道：“湖人队主教练JJ雷迪克在赛后更衣室里宣布了所有个人成就，引起了洛杉矶球员和助理教练的阵阵掌声。” “然后湖人队篮球运营总裁兼总经理罗布·佩林卡向球队发表了讲话。他手里拿着比赛用球。 “佩林卡没有把球交给八村塁、东契奇或詹姆斯，而是走到房间前面，把球交给雷迪克，后者刚刚主持了他的第 100 场执教胜利。 “据与詹姆斯关系密切的消息人士称，詹姆斯与雷迪克的关系‘很好’——一位消息人士告诉 ESPN，聘用雷迪克是‘湖人队做对的一件事’。” 消息人士称，“但过去八个赛季在洛杉矶效力并帮助球队在 2020 年夺得第 17 个冠军的詹姆斯认为佩林卡在那一刻的优先地位是湖人队将他视为理所当然的又一个例子。 “消息人士称，让詹姆斯更加愤怒的是，在过去十几场胜利中，詹姆斯愿意在东契奇和奥斯汀·里维斯身后担任进攻辅助角色。” 据 ESPN 报道，一位消息人士补充了更多背景信息。 麦克梅纳明写道：“就这样，詹姆斯甚至没有停下来换衣服，就走进了洛杉矶的夜晚，球队的另一场愤怒正在酝酿之中，正如一位与他关系密切的消息人士告诉 ESPN 的那样，在上赛季收购东契奇后，球队试图‘把他赶出去’。” 现在，詹姆斯将在这个休赛期成为一名不受限制的自由球员，这让他在湖人队的未来受到质疑。这位 41 岁的球员也有可能退役，因为他已经打了 23 个 NBA 赛季，并且还没有承诺在 2026-27 赛季复出。 尽管东契奇和里维斯因伤缺席常规赛结束，湖人队最终还是在2025-26赛季获得了西部第四的种子。东契奇随后错过了洛杉矶队的整个季后赛，而里维斯则错过了首轮对阵休斯敦火箭队的前四场比赛。 尽管如此，詹姆斯还是​​带领洛杉矶队在系列赛中以 3-0 领先休斯顿队，并成为球队季后赛中最好的球员。他以场均 2 分结束了常规赛

洛杉矶湖人队希望他们在季后赛第二轮对阵俄克拉荷马城雷霆队的比赛中没有遇到对手，但在输掉系列赛前两场比赛后，他们在剩下的比赛中将面临一场艰苦的战斗。 雷霆队在第一场和第二场比赛中在球迷面前成功捍卫了主场，而在第二场比赛中，其中一位球迷似乎与湖人队球星勒布朗·詹姆斯交谈。 “还是个孩子吧，我是个成年人了……我有自己的孩子” – 勒布朗昨晚对雷霆球迷pic.twitter.com/4rW2OEu1yB - 湖人日报 (@LakersDailyCom) 2026 年 5 月 8 日 第二场比赛，雷霆队凭借下半场的强势击败湖人队，以 18 分的优势轻松获胜。此前，他们还在第一场比赛中以 18 分击败了紫金队。 洛杉矶队仍然没有明星后卫卢卡·东契奇，这对其与卫冕 NBA 冠军竞争的机会造成了巨大打击。东契奇错过了湖人队的整个季后赛，而湖人队在第一轮的大部分时间里也没有明星后卫奥斯汀·里维斯。 这让詹姆斯不得不承担起沉重的负担，尽管他已经 41 岁了，而且还在继续，但他在这方面做得非常出色。在第一轮比赛中，他在 6 场比赛中有 4 场得到至少 25 分，而在对阵雷霆的两场比赛中，他场均得到 25.0 分。 整个季后赛，这位未来的名人堂成员场均贡献23.6分、6.1个篮板和7.8次助攻，投篮命中率为47.3%，三分命中率为32.5%。 由于NBA历史上没有哪支球队在0-3落后的情况下赢得季后赛系列赛，湖人队基本上需要赢得第三场比赛才能保住希望。对于洛杉矶来说，好消息是第二轮主场尚未打过或输过一场比赛，因此仍有前进的道路。 随着湖人队在季后赛中的表现，詹姆斯的未来仍然是一个问号，他将在周六第三场比赛时尽最大努力让他的球队重新融入球队。如果这场比赛获胜，洛杉矶队就有机会在周一的第四场比赛中扳平系列赛。 勒布朗·詹姆斯在北卡罗来纳大学全面出战后，他在湖人队替补席后面惩罚了雷霆队的孩子，这首先出现在《湖人日报》上。

Miami Heat legend Dwyane Wade shared an interesting take on Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James as he navigates the next steps in his basketball career. James is 41 years old and has played 23 seasons in the NBA, and he’s yet to officially announce whether or not he’ll return for the 2026-27 season. Wade explained that it may be harder for the four-time champion to step away from the game of basketball because he’s still a really good player. “It has to suck a little bit to get to this point in your career and still be really good,” Wade said. “… It’s hard to make that decision when you still really f—— good. Who walks away when they’re really, really good? Only a few. It ain’t a lot of Barry Sanders who just walk away when they really good. “And you’re talking about a guy who’s been doing this his entire life. This is what he knows better than anyone since he’s been playing this game, right? He’s become this generation’s G.O.A.T. (greatest of all time), and so, how do you walk away from being a G.O.A.T. when you still a G.O.A.T.?” James clearly is still one of the better players in the NBA, and he proved that by making an All-Star team and leading the Lakers to a playoff series win in the 2025-26 season. During the regular season, James averaged 20.9 points, 6.1 rebounds and 7.2 assists per game while shooting 51.5 percent from the field and 31.7 percent from 3. Even though he took on a smaller role in the Lakers’ offense when Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves were both healthy, James was still a winning player, helping the team secure the No. 4 seed in the Western Conference. After Doncic and Reaves both were injured toward the end of the regular season, James was forced to revert to a No. 1 role in the playoffs, especially in the first round against the Houston Rockets. James led the Lakers to a 3-0 series lead in that matchup, and the Lakers eventually won the series in six games. Reaves returned in Game 5 of the Houston series, but James was the driving force for Los Angeles through its playoff run. Doncic never returned. James finished the postseason averaging 23.2 points, 6.7 rebounds and 7.3 assists per game across 10 appearances. It’s possible that James will want to return for at least one more season to chase another championship ring, and he also may want to see just how long he can play at an elite level. There are still teams interested in him, as it was reported that virtually “every contender” has checked in on James with an eye on his future. Hopefully, the four-time MVP will keep playing next season, as it’s hard to imagine the NBA without him. James was picked No. 1 overall in the 2003 NBA Draft, and he’s been a staple in the league ever since.

The Los Angeles Lakers have a major offseason ahead of them, as they are positioned to build around Luka Doncic, even though several of their key players are set to become free agents. Austin Reaves (player option), Rui Hachimura, LeBron James, Jaxson Hayes, Luke Kennard, Marcus Smart (player option) and Deandre Ayton (player option) could all be unrestricted free agents this offseason, which could have a major impact for Los Angeles. On one hand, the Lakers have the ability to open up some cap space to improve their roster. However, they also are at risk of losing some of their most important rotation players, something Los Angeles can’t exactly afford after coming up short in the second round of the playoffs against the Oklahoma City Thunder. While the Lakers should have cap space to chase some additions, one Western Conference executive believes that the team will be “shut out” on restricted free agents, according to Heavy.com’s Sean Deveney. Players like Walker Kessler (Utah Jazz), Jalen Duren (Detroit Pistons) and Peyton Watson (Denver Nuggets) are all set to be restricted free agents in the offseason and could potentially help the Lakers. But with restricted free agency, the Jazz, Pistons and Nuggets will have chances to match any offer sheets that their players sign, as long as they extend them qualifying offers. “Walker Kessler of the Jazz is a player the Lakers were poised to make an offer on, one that would force Utah to match, something in the $30 million range,” Deveney wrote. “But there are indications the Jazz won’t be outbid for Kessler (within reason) and that the Lakers would not go that high on him, anyway. “The same could be said for Jalen Duren in Detroit. It’s true that Duren has had a miserable postseason, and that his status as a max player is in peril. But around the league, the consensus is that the Pistons intend to match offers for him. Even if they don’t go to the max with him themselves, the Pistons still plan to negotiate with Duren directly. “The Nuggets‘ Peyton Watson is another restricted free agency target for L.A., and probably the most realistic of the three. As good as Watson was in his breakout fourth season–14.6 points, 41.1% 3-point shooting–the Lakers are wary of committing $22-$25 million per year for Watson based on one injury-shortened year. “The chance goes up if James retires, but the Lakers’ focus is still expected to be at center.” Los Angeles certainly has a long offseason ahead, but bringing in more quality pieces around Doncic should be priority No. 1 for the franchise as it looks towards the future. James may also decide to return to L.A., but since he is 41 years old, the Lakers would be smart to prioritize Doncic as their main building block going forward.

Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James is set to be an unrestricted free agent this offseason if he decides to continue his NBA career. The 41-year-old has not announced if he’s coming back for a 24th NBA season, but ESPN’s Shams Charania provided some insight into James’ future, revealing that virtually “every contender” has reached out about the veteran. "I do know a lot of teams are calling LeBron James and his camp.. The expectation is that he's going to play another season and we will see if it's going to be with the Lakers" ~ @ShamsCharania #PMSLive pic.twitter.com/BSkPNAGOa8 — Pat McAfee (@PatMcAfeeShow) May 18, 2026 “I do know a lot of teams are calling him and his camp,” Charania said of James. “I spoke to Rich Paul the other day at the Chicago Draft Combine last week, and he told me like every contender in the NBA has essentially, since the season ended, placed a call. So, that line is gonna continue to be open. But listen, LeBron, all indications throughout the season have been that he’s gonna play another year. We’ll see if that remains to be true. He’s gotta take that time. We’ve never seen this.” Charania continued. “I think the expectation has been that probably you’re gonna get one more, and we’ll see if it’s gonna be with the Lakers or somewhere else,” he said. “But listen, being in L.A., having that comfortability, and the Lakers want him, I think all those factors do play a part.” The Lakers have a lot of decisions to make in the offseason as they look to build a contender around Luka Doncic, but it’s hard to argue that there are many better options than James that will be available. In the 2025-26 season, the four-time champion made yet another All-Star Game, and he averaged 20.9 points, 6.1 rebounds and 7.2 assists per game while shooting 51.5 percent from the field and 31.7 percent from 3. With Doncic and Austin Reaves sidelined to begin the playoffs, James led the Lakers to a 3-0 series lead against the Houston Rockets and eventually took them to the second round before they were swept by the Oklahoma City Thunder. Reaves didn’t return until Game 5 against Houston (and Doncic never returned), yet James was able to do enough to keep the Lakers’ season alive. During the playoff run for L.A. (10 games), James ended up averaging 23.2 points, 6.7 rebounds and 7.3 assists per game. So, it makes sense that other teams that are contending for a title would want the superstar going into next season. James has been to the NBA Finals 10 times in his career, winning titles with the Miami Heat (twice), Cleveland Cavaliers and Lakers. He led L.A. to a title in the 2019-20 season during the COVID-19 pandemic and was named the Finals MVP. If James does decide to return to the NBA, it appears the Lakers are interested in him returning to the team.

Los Angeles Lakers big man Jaxson Hayes is set to be an unrestricted free agent this offseason, but that doesn’t mean that he’ll be leaving Los Angeles. “Hayes wants to return to the Lakers, but if he gets a significant offer—with more playing time—he would have to take it,” Heavy.com’s Sean Deveney wrote. Hayes has been a staple in the Lakers’ rotation the last few years, appearing in 70 games in the 2023-24 season, 56 games (35 starts) in the 2024-25 season and 66 games in the 2025-26 season. In the 2025-26 campaign, Hayes started just nine games, but he did play 18.3 minutes per game for Los Angeles. The center averaged 7.5 points, 4.1 rebounds and 0.8 blocks per game while shooting 75.6 percent from the field. Hayes is a solid lob threat and rim runner for the Lakers down low, and it would make sense for Los Angeles to bring him back at a reasonable number given the team’s lack of depth at center. Deandre Ayton has a player option for the 2026-27 season with Los Angeles, but the former No. 1 overall pick didn’t exactly turn heads with his play this season, especially in the team’s playoff run. Hayes appeared in all 10 of the Lakers’ postseason games in the 2025-26 season, averaging 16.3 minutes, 5.7 points and 3.2 rebounds per game. The Lakers have a big offseason ahead as they look to improve their roster around Luka Doncic. Austin Reaves (player option) can opt out of his current deal while LeBron James is set to become an unrestricted free agent. So, Hayes is one of many players that Los Angeles has to make a decision on for the 2026-27 season and beyond. A lottery pick in the 2019 NBA Draft, Hayes has mainly been a bench player in his career, starting just 96 of the 433 regular-season games that he’s appeared in. Still, he is a younger player (25 years old) that could be a long-term rotation piece for the Lakers if they decide to bring him back for a fourth season. Since Hayes hasn’t exactly put up numbers that make him worthy of a starting spot on a playoff-caliber team, it’s hard to imagine a team going above and beyond to outbid the Lakers for the center’s services this offseason.

The Los Angeles Lakers have an important offseason ahead of them, and they could be potential suitors for Milwaukee Bucks star forward Giannis Antetokounmpo if he’s traded. The Athletic recently conducted an anonymous player poll and received 151 votes on where Antetokounmpo will start the 2026-27 season. Out of the 151 player votes, five respondents chose the Lakers. The Lakers finished fourth in the poll, as the Bucks, Miami Heat and New York Knicks each received more votes when it came to the Antetokounmpo question. Regardless, it’s interesting that a handful of players around the league see the Lakers as the 31-year-old’s next destination. For Los Angeles to land Antetokounmpo, it would likely have to part ways with many – if not all – of the assets it has left to pair him with star guard Luka Doncic. The Lakers may be looking to upgrade their roster after losing in the second round of the playoffs, but it’s worth noting that Doncic did not play in any of L.A.’s postseason games in 2026. While Antetokounmpo is one of the best players in the NBA when he is healthy, the Bucks star played in just 36 games during the 2025-26 season due to various injuries. He still put up some impressive numbers, averaging 27.6 points, 9.8 rebounds and 5.4 assists per game while shooting 62.4 percent from the field. But if the Lakers are going to sacrifice a package that would bring Antetokounmpo to Los Angeles, they’ll certainly need him on the floor for more than just 36 games. The Lakers finished with the No. 4 seed in the West in the 2025-26 season, and they’ll have a lot of competition for a high seed next season, especially with the Oklahoma City Thunder and San Antonio Spurs (both in the Western Conference Finals this season) sporting impressive young cores. Bucks co-owner Jimmy Haslam recently said that he would like to have clarity on Antetokounmpo’s future ahead of the 2026 NBA Draft. This summer, the draft will begin on June 23. It’ll be interesting to see if the Lakers make a push for Antetokounmpo or if they focus their priorities elsewhere in the offseason.

前 NBA 后卫杰夫·蒂格对洛杉矶湖人队主教练 J.J. 给予了高度赞扬。雷迪克在季后赛中对阵俄克拉荷马城雷霆队球星谢伊·吉尔杰斯·亚历山大时使用的防守策略。 尽管湖人队在西部半决赛中被雷霆队横扫，但圣安东尼奥马刺队似乎从雷迪克的计划中吸取了一些东西，并在周一晚上的西部决赛第一场比赛中应用了它们。 马刺队在第一场比赛的两个加时赛中击败了雷霆队，吉尔杰斯-亚历山大23投7中仅得到24分。 “他是一位非凡的教练，”蒂格在谈到马刺队主教练米奇·约翰逊时说道。 “他可能会成为未来的年度最佳教练。他会赢得很多这样的奖项。但不，他是一位非凡的教练。 “然后，显然，湖人队——向 J.J. 致敬。雷迪克。 J.J.是一位好教练。人们正在采用他关于如何阻止 SGA 的蓝图并应用它。伟大的教练会向其他教练学习。但要向 J.J. 大声喊叫。雷迪克。他改变了雷霆队防守的整个方式。 “这可能会损害雷霆队的前进以及他们成为王朝的整个轨迹。他们赢得了总冠军，但这种防守他的方式可能会搞砸一切。” 吉尔杰斯-亚历山大在分区半决赛对阵湖人队的前三场比赛中得分都在25分以下，然后在第四场比赛中爆发出35分完成横扫。虽然湖人队在那轮系列赛中人手不足，但他们确实找到了一种方法来减缓这位两届 MVP 的速度，因为他的场均得分低于他的赛季平均得分。 现在，马刺队似乎也采用了类似的策略，对这位明星后卫进行包夹，同时阻止他向油漆区的多次突破。圣安东尼奥马刺队还受益于新星维克托·温班亚马（Victor Wembanyama）保护篮筐，这是湖人队和雷迪克所没有的。 很高兴看到蒂格对雷迪克强大的比赛计划表示赞赏，湖人队主教练帮助球队在 2025-26 赛季进入季后赛第二轮也值得一些爱。 自从雷迪克接手以来，洛杉矶已经连续两个赛季进入季后赛，这个休赛期对湖人队来说至关重要，因为他们试图围绕球队基石卢卡东契奇为他打造一个真正的冠军争夺者。 杰夫·蒂格 (Jeff Teague) 的帖子说，J.J.雷迪克可能暴露了 SGA 并搞乱了雷霆队的未来，这首先出现在《湖人日报》上。

虽然洛杉矶湖人队在休赛期需要做出很多决定，因为他们希望升级阵容，但一位西部联盟高管认为扬尼斯·阿德托昆博对于洛杉矶目前的时间表没有多大意义。 阿德托昆博是这个休赛期的潜在交易候选人，因为他即将进入合同的最后一个赛季，然后才能选择退出（他拥有 2027-28 赛季的球员选项）。在未能进入 2025-26 赛季东部附加赛之后，雄鹿队可能会从两届 MVP 中脱颖而出。 一些传言将湖人队与字母哥联系起来，但上述高管认为这个想法有问题。 据 Heavy.com 的肖恩·德维尼 (Sean Deveney) 报道，这位高管表示：“卢卡·东契奇今年 27 岁，他刚刚满 27 岁。” “奥斯汀·里维斯已经 27 岁了。这就是他们正在寻找的人，一个处于巅峰期、能够与这两个人一起成长的人。你会感觉到他们厌倦了不断地轮换阵容，他们正在寻找合适的角色球员来强调这些人。那不是扬尼斯，他才 30 岁出头（12 月他就满 32 岁了），只是不在那个时间表上。” 尽管字母哥比东契奇和里维斯年长，但他仍然可以在不久的将来加速湖人夺冠的机会。作为两届 MVP 和一次总决赛 MVP 的字母哥，健康时是 NBA 最好的球员之一，而且由于他出色的终结能力，他将成为东契奇的一个有趣的搭档。 然而，这位高管似乎预计湖人队在休赛期建立阵容时会走向不同的方向。 2025-26赛季，字母哥由于各种伤病只打了36场比赛。他仍然打出了一些强劲的数据，场均贡献27.6分、9.8个篮板和5.4次助攻，投篮命中率为62.4%。不幸的是，对于雄鹿来说，他们并没有接近竞争。 湖人队有很多球员可以在休赛期成为非限制性自由球员，这应该让他们有机会围绕东契奇重塑球队。 奥斯汀·里维斯（球员选项）、马库斯·斯马特（球员选项）、德安德烈·艾顿（球员选项）、八村塁、勒布朗·詹姆斯、贾克森·海耶斯和卢克·肯纳德都可能在这个休赛期成为不受限制的自由球员，而罗布·佩林卡和他的公司必须决定他们认为哪些球员适合东契奇长期工作。 其中一些球员有可能回到湖人队，但洛杉矶队没有一位处于巅峰期的年轻球星（除了里维斯）能够真正与东契奇搭档。这意味着湖人队需要探索自由球员或交易市场，以在休赛期引进该球员。 尽管一些 NBA 球员认为字母哥最终会在这个休赛期前往洛杉矶，但湖人队可能会为他们的阵容探索各种其他可能性。 这位NBA后高管对扬尼斯-湖人队的传闻投下了真相炸弹，首先出现在《湖人日报》上。

Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James is set to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason, and there could be several teams bidding for his services. In fact, it was recently reported that virtually “every contender” has reached out about the four-time champion with an eye on his future. However, if James does return for a 24th NBA season, he is not expected to take a veteran minimum deal. “Last Tuesday…I said that there were many people around the league who thought that LeBron should take a veteran minimum salary,” NBA insider Jake Fischer said. “It does not sound like that is actually in the cards at all. I wanna be very, very clear about that after some text messages and phone calls I received.” It makes sense that James wouldn’t want to take a minimum deal since he was an All-Star in the 2025-26 season and is still one of the league’s most productive players. However, that could limit the number of teams that could truly pursue him in the offseason without the help of a sign-and-trade. If James is looking to make a similar salary to what he made in the 2025-26 season and remain in contention, he will likely need to return to the Lakers – if they’re willing to take him at that number – or find a team that is willing to do a sign-and-trade with Los Angeles. The 41-year-old averaged 20.9 points, 6.1 rebounds and 7.2 assists per game while shooting 51.5 percent from the field and 31.7 percent from 3 during the 2025-26 regular season, showing that he can still produce at an All-Star level. James helped the Lakers earn the No. 4 seed in the Western Conference, and he carved out a nice role as the No. 3 option alongside Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves when all three were healthy. Then, with both of those guards injured to start the playoffs, James led the Lakers to a 3-0 series lead against the Houston Rockets. Los Angeles ended up taking that series in six games, but it was swept by the Oklahoma City Thunder in the second round. Doncic did not play in the postseason, but Reaves returned for the final six games of L.A.’s playoff run. James finished the postseason averaging 23.2 points, 6.7 rebounds and 7.3 assists per contest across 10 games. The four-time league MVP is going to have a serious market in the offseason (if he decides to keep playing) because he’s still an elite talent, but it’ll be interesting to see how much teams are willing to pay for him in his 24th NBA season.

Los Angeles Lakers legend Magic Johnson shared an honest take on social media about the Western Conference following Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals between the San Antonio Spurs and Oklahoma City Thunder. “I hate to break the news to the rest of the Western Conference, but they may not have a chance to win the Western Conference Finals for the next 5-7 years,” Johnson wrote on X. “The Oklahoma City Thunder and San Antonio Spurs are just that good! They are talented, deep, athletic and both teams are well coached.” The Thunder and Spurs played an extremely close Game 1 on Monday, with San Antonio winning in double overtime. It’s pretty clear that the two teams – who each won over 60 games in the regular season – are well ahead of the rest of the competition in the West, if not the entire NBA. That’s bad news for the Lakers, as they likely will have to go through one – if not both – of these teams in the future to reach an NBA Finals. Even though the Lakers have a new cornerstone in Luka Doncic to lead their franchise for the foreseeable future, the Thunder and Spurs are loaded with young star talent. OKC swept the Lakers in the second round of the playoffs this season (Doncic did miss the series with a hamstring injury), and it had not lost a playoff game in 2026 until Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals. Meanwhile, the Spurs have rising stars like Victor Wembanyama (third season in the NBA), Stephon Castle (second season in the NBA) and Dylan Harper (a rookie). All three players were awesome in Game 1 on Monday, with Wembanyama (41 points and 24 rebounds) leading the way. That’s without even mentioning 28-year-old All-Star De’Aaron Fox, who missed Game 1. The Spurs and Thunder are both set up to contend for titles for years to come, and Oklahoma City already won the 2025 NBA Finals with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Chet Holmgren and Jalen Williams leading the way. All three of those players are locked into long-term deals with the Thunder. The bar for the Lakers to clear in the West is extremely high, but they do have a chance to improve their roster this offseason. They are set to have several unrestricted free agents, including LeBron James, which could help them open up cap space to add to the team. Plus, Los Angeles was the No. 4 seed in the West and won a playoff series in the 2025-26 campaign even though Doncic missed the entire playoff run. Johnson may be worried about other teams in the West competing, but as long as Doncic is healthy, the Lakers have one of the best players in the league to go and challenge the Spurs and Thunder.

俄克拉荷马城雷霆队可能在 2026 年 NBA 季后赛第二轮横扫洛杉矶湖人队，但湖人队并没有让雷霆队球星谢伊·吉尔吉斯-亚历山大的日子变得特别轻松。 现在，吉尔吉斯-亚历山大和雷霆队正在西部决赛中对阵圣安东尼奥马刺队，在第一场比赛中，马刺队部署了一个比赛计划（可能受到湖人队的启发），迫使联盟MVP度过了一个非常糟糕的投篮之夜。 这导致前 NBA 后卫杰夫·蒂格周二建议湖人队主教练 J.J.雷迪克可能想出了一个揭露吉尔杰斯-亚历山大的蓝图，而且蒂格似乎并不是唯一有这种感觉的人。 “为卡特·布莱恩特打了 13 分钟而欢呼，”前 NBA 后卫布兰登·詹宁斯说道。 “是的，得分表上看起来不像，但他得分超过10分，然后他捍卫SGA的方式令人惊叹。我认为湖人队为如何对抗SGA制定了蓝图，马刺队过来了，他们只是做到了T。他们肯定有更好的后卫，但这是J.J.雷迪克给我的。这就是我觉得SGA有点暴露的原因。” 吉尔吉斯-亚历山大在第二轮对阵湖人队的比赛中仍然发挥了作用，但雷迪克和他的队友找到了一种方法来在很大程度上限制他。他连续三场比赛得分不超过23分，最终在第四场比赛中得到了更有特色的35分。 雷霆队以最快的速度淘汰了湖人队，但在西部决赛第一场比赛中，他们在双加时的经典比赛中输给了马刺队。吉尔吉斯-亚历山大度过了一个令人难忘的投篮之夜，他23投仅7中。值得赞扬的是，他确实有12次助攻和5次抢断，但这还不足以让雷霆队赢得比赛。 蒂格甚至表示，雷迪克可能为雷霆队的未来（以及王朝轨迹）制造了各种各样的问题，因为他为吉尔吉斯-亚历山大制定了有效的比赛计划。 詹宁斯并没有走那么远，但他和蒂格似乎都同意，雷迪克和湖人队在对抗吉尔杰斯-亚历山大这样致命的球员时表现出创造力，值得赞扬。 雷霆队和马刺队将于周三在系列赛的第二场比赛中继续争夺 NBA 总决赛的争夺战。由于雷霆队在主场输掉了第一场比赛，他们真的可以在第二场比赛中获胜，在系列赛转移到圣安东尼奥之前止血。 随着季后赛的继续，吉尔吉斯-亚历山大将成为任何人都需要关注的关键球员，因为他们想知道这本书是否确实是关于如何防守他的。 布兰登·詹宁斯 (Brandon Jennings) 证实 SGA 正在“曝光”，因为湖人队首先出现在《湖人日报》上。

洛杉矶湖人队在被出售给洛杉矶道奇队老板马克·沃尔特后，正在进入一个新时代。 在过渡过程中，湖人队和道奇队之间出现了一些交叉，这似乎可能会对湖人队后卫奥斯汀·里维斯在 2026 年 NBA 季后赛中产生影响。 据报道，里维斯在 NBA 季后赛期间“与道奇队的医务人员一起进行了部分倾斜康复”。雅虎体育的亚伦·韦茨曼分享了细节，并转述了美国职业棒球大联盟(MLB)高管的一句话。 “支持表演人员似乎是[安德鲁]弗里德曼和[法尔汗]扎伊迪的另一个优先事项，”亚龙写道。 “我们正在与道奇队的一些人员合作，建立一个生物力学实验室，”[罗布]佩林卡告诉记者。在那之前，球员们可能必须习惯与道奇体育场的棒球队一起工作。据两位联盟消息人士透露，这就是湖人队告诉奥斯汀·里夫斯在季后赛期间从斜伤中恢复期间要做的事情。 “不过，对他们的医疗团队的信心并非没有理由。 这位美国职业棒球大联盟的高管表示：“他们以照顾球员并能够充分发挥他们的潜力而闻名。巨额合同显然发挥着重要作用，但安德鲁和他的部门帮助球员充分发挥自己的方式已成为主要的招募工具。” 里维斯在湖人队常规赛接近尾声时遭遇斜伤，这对于一支希望在季后赛中取得进展的球队来说是一个沉重的打击。更糟糕的是，湖人队的后卫卢卡·东契奇同时受伤，这让球队在进入季后赛时陷入了极其棘手的境地。 东契奇未能在季后赛中回归，但里维斯比预期更早回归，并帮助湖人队度过了首轮最后几场比赛以及整个第二轮比赛。他能够这么快回来这一事实可能证明了道奇队工作人员所做的工作。 复出后，里维斯季后赛场均贡献20.0分4.0篮板5.8助攻。湖人队在第二轮击败俄克拉荷马城雷霆队还不够，但考虑到今年的情况，球队表现出色，赢得了季后赛系列赛。 道奇队可能已经成为整个棒球界最重要的球队，如果这能表明湖人队的发展方向，那么紫金队的球迷们就有很多值得兴奋的事情。自 2020 年以来，道奇队已经赢得了三个世界大赛冠军，目前他们正享受着背靠背冠军的连胜，他们希望今年能延续这一势头。 这将是湖人队自出售沃尔特后的第一个休赛期，因此这将是洛杉矶一个令人着迷的夏天。 《湖人日报》首先报道了道奇队在 NBA 季后赛期间帮助奥斯汀·里维斯康复的报道。

圣安东尼奥马刺队拥有一代天才维克多·温班亚马，事实证明他在场内场外都是独一无二的人物。 据 ESPN 报道，温班亚马的经纪人布纳·恩迪亚耶 (Bouna Ndiaye) 意识到他的客户与众不同，因此去年 4 月，他主动联系洛杉矶湖人队高管罗布·佩林卡 (Rob Pelinka) 安排午餐。原因是：恩迪亚耶想与佩林卡谈论湖人队传奇人物科比·布莱恩特。 “他们的思维方式不同，”恩迪亚耶告诉 ESPN。 “他们玩耍的方式，他们伸展自己的方式。只是他们的好奇心。他们如何学习和观察事物。他们在解决问题方面都非常有创造力。” 去年春天，温班亚马试图解决的“问题”是，他想找到一种方法，在篮球场上增强身体素质，同时又不增加体型。 “基本上，他想要进行身体改造，这样他就可以永远奔跑并利用他的身体工具更接近篮筐，”恩迪亚耶说。 “然后他想要接受挑战。” 当恩迪亚耶向佩林卡解释情况时，湖人队高管告诉他，科比在他的 NBA 职业生涯中执行了许多抽象任务（例如前往瓜达卢佩研究鲨鱼）以获得优势。 “我想了解科比是如何做事的，”恩迪亚耶说。 “这样我们就可以向他学习。维克多与其他人不同。我们必须发挥创造力，打造他独有的项目。” 去年，Wembanyama 前往中国少林寺与僧侣进行为期 10 天的闭关，成为头条新闻。 科比可能会采取这种非传统的方法来解决问题，虽然很难将文巴尼亚马目前在 NBA 的成功归因于某一件事，但他似乎按下了正确的按钮，为本赛季做好了准备。 现在，马刺队在客场从俄克拉荷马城雷霆队手中抢走了西部决赛第一场比赛的胜利，而现在，他已经让马刺队距离 NBA 总决赛还差三场胜利。文巴尼亚马在第一场比赛中表现出色，拿下 41 分和 24 个篮板，并在双加时赛中拿下 41 分和 24 个篮板。 这位 22 岁的球员刚刚进入 NBA，但已经证明了他是那种一生中可能只会出现一次的球员。他本赛季正在追逐自己的第一个 NBA 总冠军，但无论圣安东尼奥马刺队的赛季结果如何，很明显，文班亚马对伟大的追求不会很快停止。 当休赛期到来时，球迷们可能想关注这位冉冉升起的天才，看看他如何利用时间为接下来的事情做准备。 《湖人日报》首先报道了“温比经纪人联系罗伯·佩林卡谈论科比”的帖子。

As the Los Angeles Lakers adjust to their new ownership group led by businessman Mark Walter, the organization is undergoing some changes. That could mean more resources are on the way to help the franchise get even with its peers. That would likely be a welcome change for an organization that has been described as thin behind the scenes — something Lakers head coach J.J. Redick reportedly noticed after he was hired. “For years, the Lakers have operated with one of the NBA’s thinnest front offices,” wrote Yaron Weitzman of Yahoo Sports. “A small player performance and medical group. A tiny analytics team. No assistant GMs. Even JJ Redick, after being hired as head coach in June 2024, told a friend he was surprised by how lean the team was behind the scenes.” After the Lakers were eliminated this season, team executive Rob Pelinka had some interesting comments about the franchise’s direction. “It’s a full rebuild and retool,” Pelinka said of the organization’s collaboration with the Los Angeles Dodgers. “It’s adding to the great things that are already here, which have led to success, but elevating it and bringing it to the next level.” Walter, who also owns the Dodgers, has helped that organization become a juggernaut, and if something similar is in the cards for the Lakers, that’s wonderful news for the Purple and Gold. Although Redick might’ve been caught off guard by how thin the Lakers were after he was hired, the coach has done a nice job during his tenure. In his debut season, the Lakers won 50 games and earned the No. 3 seed in the Western Conference. They took a quick exit in the first round of the playoffs against the Minnesota Timberwolves but still had some positives to feel good about from the season. Then, this past season, the Lakers increased their win total to 53 and ended up with the No. 4 seed in the West. Despite major injury blows, the team took care of business in the first round of the playoffs against the Houston Rockets, but it was later swept by the Oklahoma City Thunder in the second round. In addition to undergoing an ownership transition, L.A. is in the midst of a roster transition centered around its superstars. For years, star forward LeBron James has been the main building block for the franchise, but after the Lakers were able to acquire star guard Luka Doncic last season, he has become their new centerpiece. The revolving doors have made it an interesting time to follow the organization as it attempts to steady the ship.

洛杉矶湖人队球星勒布朗·詹姆斯的未来是 NBA 即将到来的休赛期最大的故事情节之一，但如果他最近的言论有任何迹象的话，球迷们可能需要等待一段时间才能了解他的下一步。 这位 41 岁的人在他的播客中暗示，他的未来可能会在夏末成为人们关注的焦点。 “我认为在某个时候，在六月、六月下旬，随着七月的到来，自由球员市场......开始，随着七月的到来，也许进入八月，我们开始有点感觉到我的未来会是什么样子，”詹姆斯说。 詹姆斯在湖人队度过了过去八个赛季，他将在今年休赛期成为自由球员。看来他今年夏天的选择是退役、回到湖人队或者加盟一支新球队。 这位22次入选全明星的球员是联盟中年龄最大的现役球员，并且是NBA历史上出场时间最多的球员，因此如果他选择离开，没有人会责怪他。然而，随着詹姆斯年复一年地表现出他的能量箱里还有剩余的能量，对他来说继续他的职业生涯并试图最大限度地延长他令人难以置信的寿命是很有意义的。 本赛季，詹姆斯场均贡献20.9分、6.1个篮板和7.2次助攻，投篮命中率为51.5%，三分线外命中率为31.7%。对他来说，这是一个有点不同的赛季，因为当三人都健康时，他必须与其他球星卢卡·东契奇和奥斯汀·里维斯一起扮演独特的角色，但詹姆斯仍然找到了一种高效的方法。 常规赛临近结束时，东契奇和里维斯双双因伤缺席季后赛。里维斯最终在季后赛中回归，但东契奇却没有。这种情况迫使詹姆斯背负着沉重的负担，而他也做到了令人钦佩，季后赛场均得到23.2分，并帮助球队赢得了系列赛。 NBA 中有很多球队可以使用詹姆斯，但由于工资帽的原因，对许多球队来说，获得他可能会很棘手。关于这位退伍军人的未来，还有许多悬而未决的问题，听起来可能需要几个月的时间才能真正明朗。 勒布朗暗示他需要多长时间才能决定自己的未来，这篇文章首先出现在《湖人日报》上。

The Cleveland Cavaliers are often mentioned as a possible landing spot for NBA icon LeBron James if he leaves the Los Angeles Lakers, and his former Cavs teammate Channing Frye wants to see it happen. “Go back to Cleveland,” Frye said when asked where he’d like to see James next season. “Go back to Cleveland. That’s what I wanna see. Go back home, last year, let’s get it done. Cleveland can move on from James Harden, so now they have a ball-handler. They have a guy who can play four different positions. He’ll make ’em tougher, or he’ll call ’em out and get ’em traded, either one. I mean, it’s just facts.” James and Frye played together on the Cavs years ago and even won a title together in the 2015-16 season. Since then, James has added one NBA title to his collection (in 2020 with the Lakers), but the Cavs have yet to reach the same heights. Currently, they are in the Eastern Conference Finals with a chance to reach the NBA Finals for the first time since their James era, but they are in an 0-2 hole in their ongoing series against the New York Knicks. Frye brought up Harden, who has struggled at times in these playoffs with Cleveland. Adding James would give the Cavs a level of playoff experience and leadership that is invaluable to any team. But acquiring the future Hall of Famer may not be an easy task due to cap obstacles, so Cleveland may have to get creative if it wants to truly pursue him this offseason. James is aging but remains a very good NBA player, as evidenced by his 20.9 points, 6.1 rebounds and 7.2 assists per game this season. He would be a tough piece to replace for the Lakers, who are entering an important offseason. The Cavs may want to prove to themselves that they can get over the championship hump without James — something they’ve never done in their franchise history — but if they fall short again this year after making some significant trades around the deadline, they may have no choice but to consider the idea of bringing the team legend home. Many teams have reportedly already called about James. That could include the Cavs. No matter how the situation unfolds from here, everyone can likely agree that James going home to Cleveland would be a storybook ending to his career.

Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James spoke about his future during a recent episode of the “Mind the Game” podcast, and he left a lot to the imagination. James said that he doesn’t know what his future holds yet, and he even indicated that it could be months before it comes into focus. But former NBA big man Kendrick Perkins, who played with James years ago, thinks that the future Hall of Famer already has a plan in place. Kendrick Perkins calls out LeBron James for fishing for attention (Via @FirstTake ) pic.twitter.com/83vM1syQoD — NBACentral (@TheDunkCentral) May 22, 2026 “We took the bait,” said Perkins. “… He caught the attention that he wanted while his a– is sitting at home. I’ve been knowing Bron all my life. He moves like the president. He already has a plan in place. He know what he’s doing. He know what his next move in. He know what the counter is gonna be. He know where he wanna go, where he wanna be, if he wanna be on the Lakers. He already know that.” This is a pivotal offseason for James, who has options as he considers his next move. He could retire and call it quits on his NBA career after 23 legendary seasons, but it seems more likely that he will return for more and continue his run of incredible longevity. The question then becomes whether he will keep playing with the Lakers or turn the page after eight seasons in L.A. This is one area where James doesn’t have total control. Even though he’s set to hit free agency, there are logistical obstacles that could make it tough for some teams to legitimately pursue him, especially since he doesn’t appear interested in taking the veteran minimum. As such, it may not be as simple as James just picking his destination at will this offseason. But a recent report did detail that virtually “every contender” in the league has called about James, so there is clearly no shortage of interest. No team is likely to build around the 41-year-old at this stage of his career, but he could certainly be a key piece for a team that is trying to get over the championship hump. James has won four NBA titles during his career, and one has to imagine that he’d love nothing more than to get a fifth before walking away from the game. Those are some of the factors that he is going to have to think about this offseason, but if Perkins is right, James has likely already considered all of them.

While Los Angeles Lakers legend Kobe Bryant is widely regarded as one of the greatest players in NBA history, his career overlapped with those of some other NBA icons. For that reason, Bryant, in the eyes of some, might’ve lacked a time in his career where he was definitively the best player in the world. That’s how sports analyst Nick Wright sees it, but former NBA guard Lou Williams isn’t going to let that claim go unchecked. Lou Williams DISAGREES with Nick Wright saying Kobe Bryant was NEVER the best player in the NBA "He won MVP and then came back and won a championship with guys they said the Lakers couldn't compete with."@MichelleDBeadle | @boogiecousins | @ChandlerParsons | @TeamLou23 pic.twitter.com/5iKBQ5FQOv — Run It Back (@RunItBackFDTV) May 21, 2026 Williams and Bryant were in the NBA at the same time for many years and were even teammates in the 2015-16 season, so Williams got an up-close look at how Bryant operated. Wright explained his viewpoint in detail earlier this month, noting that he sees Bryant as the eighth-greatest player in NBA history even though he was “never the best player in the world.” Nick Wright says he’s got Kobe Bryant as the 8th greatest player ever, and he was never the best player in the world: “I know people get mad at that take, but here’s the problem and the reason Kobe was never the best player in the world. Because once Kobe got great, call it 99,… pic.twitter.com/PKqdOhJR1c — NBA Courtside (@NBA__Courtside) May 8, 2026 It is theoretically possible for an all-time great to never be the No. 1 player in the NBA. Whether or not Bryant fell into that category is up for debate. Bryant had a remarkable five-year run in the middle of his career in which he accomplished something huge each season. Here’s a look at that stretch of his career: 2005-06 season: won scoring title (35.4 points per game) 2006-07 season: won scoring title (31.6 points per game) 2007-08 season: won league MVP 2008-09 season: won NBA title and Finals MVP 2009-10 season: won NBA title and Finals MVP Wright maintains, however, that fellow NBA legends Tim Duncan and LeBron James held the reins at different points during that part of Bryant’s career. This topic, like the G.O.A.T. (greatest of all time) debate, is something that can’t truly be settled due to its subjective nature. Even today, some will argue over who is currently the best player in the NBA, which demonstrates how the waters get murky at times. But Bryant, with his five NBA titles and countless personal accolades, certainly put together one of the best careers in league history, and his status as one of the top basketball players of all time isn’t in doubt.

Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James has reached a stage of his NBA career where each passing season leads to retirement speculation, and this summer is no different. The veteran just completed his 23rd season in the league and hasn’t announced that he’ll be coming back for more, even though that seems to be the expectation around the NBA world. If James were to return for another season, many have theorized that it would be his last in the league, but James’ former teammate Kendrick Perkins seems to think that the 41-year-old has multiple years left in the tank. “I don’t think LeBron James retire after next year to be honest,” Perkins said. “I think he got two or three more years left in the tank.” James playing three more years would delay his retirement until the summer of 2029, a timeline that would certainly surprise many. But with the way the future Hall of Famer played this season, it’s easy to understand why Perkins thinks James still has lots of basketball left in him. The Lakers star averaged 20.9 points, 6.1 rebounds and 7.2 assists per game while shooting 51.5 percent from the field and 31.7 percent from beyond the arc. While that’s remarkable production for any 41-year-old, what makes James’ season even more impressive is that he likely could’ve done more had his role required it. Instead, L.A. leaned heavily on star guards Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves during the regular season, which allowed James to take a step back. But in the playoffs, his number was called due to injuries, and he stepped up by averaging 23.2 points per game and leading the team to a series win. If James opts to continue his career, he will need to decide where to spend the 2026-27 season. A return to the Lakers is certainly possible. But if his career does end up lasting two or three more seasons, that may increase the likelihood that he puts on another jersey at some point in time. NBA fans certainly don’t want to see the league’s all-time leading scorer retire anytime soon, so if Perkins’ theory is right, that’s good news for everyone.

The future of Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James remains a question mark as the NBA offseason approaches, and according to the man himself, it could be a while before some clarity comes. James suggested during a recent episode of his podcast that his future could remain undetermined into August. A scenario like that might put the Lakers in a tricky spot, as they need to build a roster this offseason one way another. According to one NBA executive, there’s “no way” L.A. can wait up for him. “It’s LeBron James,” the executive said, per Heavy Sports. “You want to give him all the time he needs, he has earned it. But if you’re building a team, there’s no way you can wait. It is going to be, ‘We either gotta do this with you or without you.’ And if it is without him, then you’ve got some tough decisions to make. “But you can’t build your team with a $50 million player who might or might not play. If he says he is not sure, they have no choice–they’ve got to move forward like he is not going to be there, and that could really make the decision for him.” James’ options this summer as a pending free agent are essentially to return to Los Angeles, join a new team or call it quits on his legendary NBA career. For what it’s worth, NBA insider Brian Windhorst seems to think that by the draft, there will be clarity on James’ future with the Lakers specifically. Brian Windhorst on LeBrons future: “I think by the draft which is 1 month from today, we will know whether LeBron will be a Laker or not.” https://t.co/0kvl5YB02j pic.twitter.com/f0OuXP7SYE — NBA Courtside (@NBA__Courtside) May 22, 2026 The Lakers are facing lots of uncertainty going into the offseason, as several of their top contributors could hit free agency. In addition to James, Austin Reaves (player option), Marcus Smart (player option), Deandre Ayton (player option), Rui Hachimura, Luka Kennard and others could all hit free agency this summer. That’s a daunting list for the Lakers, who are looking to build a contending team around new franchise cornerstone Luka Doncic. If the organization can get significant money off its books this offseason, that may open up some doors in terms of making a splash somewhere else, but some of L.A.’s potential free agents this offseason would be incredibly hard to replace. When it comes to James, he remains an elite talent even at 41 years of age. This season, he averaged 20.9 points, 6.1 rebounds and 7.2 assists per game for the Lakers while shooting 51.5 percent from the field and 31.7 percent from beyond the arc. In the postseason, he had to carry a bigger load due to injuries to L.A.’s other stars, and he rose to the occasion. He averaged 23.2 points per game and helped the Lakers win a series before they ultimately bowed out in the second round. It may be hard for the franchise to find a more productive option for its roster next season than James, so if both sides are interested in staying together, hopefully they can make that happen. The

The Los Angeles Lakers and Detroit Pistons both took second-round exits in the 2026 NBA Playoffs, and each team could be in the market for some help this offseason. Both squads also have some question marks surrounding key players. Two of those players are Austin Reaves and Jalen Duren. Reaves is likely to opt out of the final year of his deal with the Lakers this offseason and become an unrestricted free agent. Duren, meanwhile, is set to hit restricted free agency. During a recent podcast, Boston Celtics legend Paul Pierce was asked about the idea of Reaves and Duren swapping teams through a sign-and-trade. He was excited by the idea. “I like that,” Pierce said of the idea. “I love that for both teams. You get a young big you could put with Luka Doncic in Duren, then you (the Pistons) get the scoring punch that you need on the perimeter.” Pierce did note that a move like that would deplete Detroit’s depth at big man, which the team would have to address. For the Lakers, moving on from Reaves would be an incredible loss, as he’s gone from an undrafted signing to a borderline All-Star in the NBA. This season, he averaged 23.3 points, 4.7 rebounds and 5.5 assists per game for the Lakers. Adding Duren, however, would certainly be something. He is only 22 years old and earned an All-Star nod this season with the Pistons. He averaged a double-double for a third consecutive season and also finished 11th in the Defensive Player of the Year race. In the regular season, he averaged 19.5 points, 10.5 rebounds and 2.0 assists per game. But it is worth noting that in the playoffs, his production regressed to the tune of 10.2 points, 8.5 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game, with his efficiency also taking a hit. He’d be a fascinating piece to pair with Doncic as the Lakers look to build a long-term contender moving forward. Detroit, meanwhile, is looking to do the same. Adding Reaves would give the team an intriguing backcourt that would also feature star guard Cade Cunningham. Although the Pistons won 60 games in the 2025-26 regular season and came one win away from reaching the Eastern Conference Finals, they were pushed to seven games in the first round against the No. 8 seed and arguably should have taken care of business in the second round against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Their playoff run certainly had its flaws. As such, they should keep as many options on the table as possible this offseason.

Former NBA star Caron Butler got a chance to play alongside Los Angeles Lakers legend Kobe Bryant for a season, and they ultimately built a close friendship that lasted many years. Somewhere along the way, Butler realized that Bryant was just an “ordinary dude” off the basketball court. “So many stories have been told since the tragedy, but I would say that everything that you probably heard, it was almost like a facade, like it was something that he created,” Butler said. “And then away from the game of basketball, he was just totally different. … Away from the sport, away from the game, he was just like your ordinary dude.” Butler and Bryant were teammates in the 2004-05 NBA season after the Lakers acquired Butler as part of the deal that sent legendary big man Shaquille O’Neal to the Miami Heat. Butler was going into his third NBA season at the time after an inconsistent start to his career with the Heat. With the Lakers, he put together a solid 2004-05 campaign, averaging 15.5 points, 5.8 rebounds and 1.9 assists per game. Meanwhile, Bryant, adjusting to life without O’Neal, put together a season in which he averaged 27.6 points, 5.9 rebounds and 6.0 assists per game, but in some ways, it was a forgettable season for the Hall of Famer, especially since the Lakers missed the playoffs. Butler’s tenure with the Lakers ended after one season, and Bryant took his game to new heights in the following years. In a three-season span, he won two scoring titles and one MVP award. Then, he helped the Lakers win back-to-back titles in 2009 and 2010, giving him five rings in total after he won three during the O’Neal area. Butler also did well for himself after his lone season with Bryant. He spent the next few seasons with the Washington Wizards, where he became a two-time All-Star. He ultimately played 14 seasons in the NBA before calling it quits. Countless stories have been told about Bryant since he lost his life in 2020, and many of them have indeed painted him in an otherworldly light. However, Butler’s comments on the 18-time All-Star are a reminder that away from the bright lights, each and every person is only human at the end of the day.

Former NBA player Eddie Johnson believes that one LeBron James streak will “never” be matched again. James had made an All-NBA team in every season besides his rookie campaign until he failed to reach the 65-game threshold to be eligible for the honor in the 2025-26 season. So, James’ streak – which started in his second NBA season – has finally come to an end after 21 straight years. Johnson believes that streak is untouchable, and it makes sense given James’ longevity. What an amazing feat. We will never see this from any player. https://t.co/Wd4Kc9b3eH — Eddie A Johnson (@Jumpshot8) May 25, 2026 James has played 23 seasons in the NBA, and he may decide to come back for a 24th season in the 2026-27 campaign. No player in NBA history has played in as many seasons as the Los Angeles Lakers star, so it makes sense that Johnson believes James’ feat will never be matched. No player in NBA history has played in more regular-season games (1,622) or playoff games (302) than James, and he’s played over 61,000 minutes in the regular season. The four-time champion is the NBA’s all-time leading scorer with 43,440 points in the regular season, and he’s also the all-time leader in points in the playoffs with 8,521. James’ entire career is unprecedented, and since he’s arguably the greatest player of all time, it’s hard to see anyone coming close to that in the future. Not only has James played for 23 seasons and done so at a high level, but he’s also had just one season where he played fewer than 55 games. His ability to stay healthy has gone a long way toward helping him set some of these records, and it’s possible he will be back in the mix to make an All-NBA team in the 2026-27 season. After all, James still played 60 games in the 2025-26 season after missing the start of the campaign with sciatica. Even at 41 years old, his numbers were impressive. James made yet another All-Star team, and he averaged 20.9 points, 6.1 rebounds and 7.2 assists per game while shooting 51.5 percent from the field and 31.7 percent from 3 during the regular season. Then, he followed that up by playing even better in the postseason, averaging 23.2 points, 6.7 rebounds and 7.3 assists per contest across 10 playoff games. It would take a very special player to come anywhere near some of James’ all-time records, and the Lakers star can add to some of them if he decides to continue his career for a 24th season.

Former NBA player Eddie Johnson took to social media and attempted to give Cleveland Cavaliers fans something to cheer for ahead of Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals. Johnson suggested that the Cavs “celebrate tonight” because he thinks that franchise legend LeBron James will return to the team to finish his NBA career. The Cavs were not going to win a Title even if they had won the East and so the Cavs should celebrate tonight because I predict LeBron James is returning to complete his basketball journey next year in a big way! pic.twitter.com/WVUPxLHx76 — Eddie A Johnson (@Jumpshot8) May 25, 2026 Johnson even offered a solution to anyone worried about the Cavs’ ability to pay James. I don’t wanna hear about Cavs can’t pay him. I know, but guess who would? Nike, Madison Avenue and local advertisements. It would be a great story for the potential GOAT! — Eddie A Johnson (@Jumpshot8) May 25, 2026 James has been with the Los Angeles Lakers since the 2018-19 season, but he’s an unrestricted free agent this coming offseason. An Ohio native, James was drafted No. 1 overall by the Cavs in the 2003 NBA Draft, and he won a championship with the franchise in the 2015-16 season. James has left Cleveland twice – once for the Miami Heat and once for the Lakers – but he’s nearing the end of his NBA career and could decide to finish it with his hometown team. The Lakers could make a push to keep James this offseason, but ultimately the four-time champion will decide where he’ll play next since he’s no longer under contract with Los Angeles. The Cavs made the Eastern Conference Finals this season for the first time since James left for L.A., but they’ve been outclassed by the New York Knicks, losing the first three games of the series. It’s possible that Cleveland will look to shake up its roster for next season if it is swept by New York on Monday. James may not be the superstar that he was during his earlier stints with the Cavs, but he’s still an All-Star and played at a high level in the 2025-26 season at 41 years of age. This season, James appeared in 60 games and averaged 20.9 points, 6.1 rebounds and 7.2 assists per game while shooting 51.5 percent from the field and 31.7 percent from 3. He also had a strong playoff run, leading the Lakers past the Houston Rockets in the first round even though star guard Luka Doncic did not play in the series while fellow star Austin Reaves missed four of the six games. Los Angeles was swept in the second round by the Oklahoma City Thunder, but James ended up averaging 23.2 points, 6.7 rebounds and 7.3 assists per contest across 10 games of postseason action. It’s possible James will return to Cleveland for the 2026-27 season, but Johnson seems to just be making a prediction ahead of the offseason.

NBA legend Tracy McGrady recently talked about Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James and his greatness, praising the four-time champion for his cardiovascular strength and ability to stay in elite shape. “Being in tip-top shape is part of the game, right?” McGrady began. “Cardiovascular’s part of the game. That’s why LeBron James is so f—— great because he outplays and outlasts everybody in the game. A playoff game, you look down there at the fourth quarter at him, Game 7, that motherf—– ain’t sweating, man. He fresh.” James has played 23 seasons in the NBA, yet he’s remained relatively healthy throughout his entire career. James has played in at least 55 games in all but one season (the 2020-21 campaign), and he’s played in more regular-season games (1,622) than anyone in NBA history. On top of that, James has been to the NBA Finals 10 times in his career and has played in more playoff games (302) than anyone in NBA history as well. He had a stretch during his career where he reached the NBA Finals in eight straight seasons, showing remarkable durability year in and year out. There’s no doubt that availability goes a long way toward a player being great. Even in his 23rd year, James appeared in 60 games for the Lakers in the regular season despite missing the start of the campaign with sciatica. In the 2025-26 season, the four-time MVP made yet another All-Star team, and he averaged 20.9 points, 6.1 rebounds and 7.2 assists per game while shooting 51.5 percent from the field and 31.7 percent from 3. Then, he was the only Lakers star healthy for all 10 of the team’s playoff games, as Luka Doncic (hamstring) did not play in the playoffs while Austin Reaves (oblique) missed the first four games of the Lakers’ run. James led the Lakers to a 3-0 series lead against the Houston Rockets and eventually took them to the second round before they were swept by the Oklahoma City Thunder. During the playoff run for L.A., James ended up averaging 23.2 points, 6.7 rebounds and 7.3 assists per game. It’s very possible that the NBA will never see another player like James, and it’s also possible he will return for a 24th season in the 2026-27 campaign. The NBA’s all-time leading scorer, James has a chance to set a ton of records because of his longevity and how well he’s taken care of his body during his career.

The Los Angeles Lakers have been linked to big man Duke Brennan ahead of the 2026 NBA Draft. Brennan reportedly will have an official workout with the Lakers on Tuesday, putting him on the radar as a potential option for Los Angeles. The Lakers only have one pick in the 2026 NBA Draft (their first-round selection) since they traded away their 2026 second-round pick years ago. Brennan isn’t projected to go in the first round. Duke Brennan (@Dukebrennan86) has an official workout with the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday, per @OG6_SM@Lakers@NBA pic.twitter.com/KgHfxnCMkA — OG6 Sports Management (@OG6_SM) May 25, 2026 Still, Brennan could be a player to watch for Los Angeles as it looks to improve its frontcourt. The Lakers have several potential free agents this offseason, including some that could impact their big man depth. Brennan spent four seasons in college, beginning his career at Arizona State University before transferring to Grand Canyon University, where he spent two seasons. He was an All-WAC selection in the 2024-25 season and made the conference’s All-Defense team in the same campaign. He then transferred to Villanova University ahead of the 2025-26 season, where he eventually earned All-Big East honors. Brennan had a huge 2025-26 campaign, averaging 12.4 points, 10.3 rebounds and 2.0 assists per game while shooting 65.8 percent from the field. The big man didn’t shoot many 3s in his college career (he was 1-for-3 overall), but he’s a proven inside presence that averaged over nine rebounds per game in each of his last two collegiate seasons. Since it doesn’t appear that Brennan will be a first-round pick, the Lakers may value him as a potential undrafted free agent option following the 2026 NBA Draft. Los Angeles would love to improve its depth down low after multiple seasons of shaky big man play ever since the team moved on from Anthony Davis in the Luka Doncic trade. The Lakers have a lot of moves to consider making this offseason, but finding another undrafted player that could help them in the future would be a major win. Austin Reaves and Alex Caruso have both played major roles as undrafted players for the Lakers in the past, and it’s possible Brennan could increase L.A.’s interest in him with a strong workout on Tuesday.

The Los Angeles Lakers are reportedly bolstering their front office by hiring Rohan Ramadas as an assistant general manager under Rob Pelinka. “The Los Angeles Lakers made their first significant move of the offseason by hiring Rohan Ramadas as an assistant general manager under president and GM Rob Pelinka, sources told ESPN on Monday,” ESPN’s Dave McMenamin and Shams Charania wrote. Ramadas has a very impressive background, as he spent the past decade or so working in some capacity for the New Orleans Pelicans, including two years in a full-time role with the franchise. The new Lakers front office member was most recently the vice president of strategy and operations with New Orleans. A Pelicans source offered ESPN a comment on Ramadas. “He’s a literal rocket scientist,” the source said. That comment doesn’t appear to be hyperbole, either. Ramadas has worked both in the NBA and aerospace. According to the Pelicans, the executive spent 12 years “supporting the Aerospace Corporation, U.S. Space Force, and NASA as a rocket guidance, navigation, control, and mission design engineer.” So, the Lakers are clearly bringing in a very gifted individual to help Pelinka and the franchise. “While working for the Pelicans, Ramadas implemented AI and coded models to aid the front office, the source told ESPN,” McMenamin and Charania wrote. According to The Athletic’s Dan Woike, Ramadas is regarded as “very smart” by people around the league. I can confirm the Lakers have hired Rohan Ramadas as an assistant general manager. Ramadas worked for the New Orleans Pelicans the past two seasons in strategy and has a background in aerospace. Regarded as very smart by people in the league who know him. — Dan Woike (@DanWoikeSports) May 25, 2026 The Lakers are looking to make improvements to their roster in the offseason, and adding someone as experienced and savvy as Ramadas to the front office is a good start. Hopefully, he can help Pelinka and the Lakers shape their roster around Luka Doncic as they look to contend for a title in the 2026-27 season and beyond. The Lakers made the playoffs as the No. 4 seed in the Western Conference in the 2025-26 season, but an injury to Doncic limited the team’s ceiling in the postseason. The Lakers beat the Houston Rockets in the first round of the playoffs behind some strong play from LeBron James, but they were then swept by the Oklahoma City Thunder in the second round. If Los Angeles wants to compete with the Thunder and San Antonio Spurs in the West, it has to improve its roster, especially since James (41 years old) is nearing the end of his career. Hopefully, Ramadas will bring some new insight to help the Lakers make the most of their cap space and assets in the coming offseason.

# 你的非交易名单上第一支球队是哪支？ 所以……事实证明勒布朗·詹姆斯的观点毕竟不是异常值。 就在我们的记者组即将结束采访时，这位湖人球星在播客上分享了他对孟菲斯的不那么讨人喜欢的看法，从而成为了头条新闻。虽然他对密尔沃基和克利夫兰（当然，这离他的家乡俄亥俄州阿克伦很近）也有一些不讨好的说法，但詹姆斯选择建议灰熊队搬到田纳西州纳什维尔，这才真正激怒了孟菲斯人。这是可以理解的。 不过，证据就在民意调查中。 当球员被问及哪支球队将位列“不交易”名单之首时，孟菲斯队获得的票数是第二名华盛顿奇才队的三倍多。 “老实说，我会在任何地方踢球，”一名球员解释道。 “但我不得不说孟菲斯是一个我不想住的地方。所以这就是我不想在那里打球的原因。” 另一位球员表示：“这与球队无关。这是球队的位置。” 这种反馈似乎与专员亚当·西尔弗在四月底的播客节目中所分享的观点背道而驰，当时他表示他“从未听说过球员不想留在孟菲斯的问题”，同时还表示“孟菲斯灰熊队没有理由不能成功。”萧华还表示，如果灰熊队“每年在纳什维尔打几场比赛，并尽可能成为田纳西州的球队”，他会很高兴。 只要灰熊队在联邦快递论坛上没有达成新的球馆租赁协议（他们目前的合同将在 2028-29 赛季后到期），就会有人质疑是否会采取行动。该组织与市政府之间的谈判持续的时间远远超过预期，并且仍未解决。 奇才队在这里获得第二名并不令人意外。自1978-79赛季以来，球队还没有在一个赛季赢过50场比赛，也没有进入过东部决赛。本赛季球队17胜65负的战绩很可能延续了球队失败的故事。 华盛顿目前的管理层在过去三年中一直试图改变人们的看法，在篮球运营人员配置和特许经营基础设施上投入巨资，并监督第一资本球馆（Capital One Arena）早该进行的翻新工程，从主场和客队更衣室开始。 二月份被交易到奇才队的安东尼·戴维斯在上个月的新闻发布会上表示，外界对球队的看法是不准确的。 “我个人现在可以说，这不是人们所想的那样，也不是人们表现出来的那样，”戴维斯说。 “是的，失败是其中的一部分，所以人们有点将其与组织联系在一起。但组织本身与人们认为他们所看到的完全不同。” 资料来源：[https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7270363/2026/05/18/giannis-anonymous-player-poll-2026/](https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7270363/2026/05/18/giannis-anonymous-player-p
