The highest 3-year period is 64.5 million, the Lakers should chase top 3D! US media sends 4 for 1 plan: Skip the first round of people

The new contract can be signed for up to 3 years and $64.5 million, and the Lakers should chase top 3D! To this end, the US media "fadeawayworld" gave a potential trading plan for 4 for 1, and advised the Purple and Gold Legion to give up the first round of picks to grab people.

The highest 3 years of 64.5 million

After becoming the Eastern Conference's big dark horse and entering the finals and losing to the Thunder, the Pacers' prospects for the new season are dark, because the core Halliburton suffered a serious injury and it is unlikely to remain competitive.

Therefore, the Pacers' reinforcement, contract renewal and adjustment range have been limited since the offseason, and they even let the inside core Turner go, and at the same time, they have never resolved the contract renewal negotiations with Nesmith.

According to previous reports from The Indy Pacer, Nesmith had already started negotiations with the Pacers in early August, but there has been no clear progress in the offseason so far.

Currently, his contract has two years left to expire and is eligible to sign a three-year contract extension with the Pacers with a maximum value of $64.5 million, with an average salary just slightly higher than the full middle class special case.

Smith, who was trapped in the 24-25 season, only played 45 regular season games due to injury, but her overall performance was still remarkable. During the regular season, she averaged 12 points, 4 rebounds and 1.2 assists per game, and her three shooting percentage was 50.7/43.1/91.3%.

Neismith's performance in the playoffs further improved, which was one of the important factors for the Pacers to enter the playoffs, with averaging data to 12.7 points and 5.7 rebounds, and a three-in-one shooting percentage of 47.2/49.2/86.1%.

US media sends 4 for 1 trading plan

Faced with such a situation, the US media "fadeawayworld" advises the Lakers and should pay close attention to the renewal issue between the Pacers and Nessmith. If both sides have never solved the renewal issue, the Lakers try to pursue Nessmith, and the potential 4 for 1 trading plan is as follows:

Lakers get: Nessmith;

Pacers get: Kneckett + Vanderbilt + 2031 first round pick (Lakes) + 2032 second round pick (Lakes).

Lakers: Taking into account the current and the future, the Lakers are in a period of transition from old to old. The team is trying to get rid of James to ensure that there is room and salary in the future to rebuild the team around Doncic. The former is very dissatisfied. After executing the player option in the offseason, he put public pressure through his agent Ricci Paul.

Therefore, the Lakers need to balance the relationship between the two. If they cannot find a suitable deal to send James away, they need to complete the transaction and replenish them to appease James in the last year of the contract.

And the team hopes to leave more chips to build a team around Doncic. This deal is one of the best choices, taking into account the present and the future.

Nestmith is an elite 3D wing that has been seriously underestimated by the outside world. Both projection and defense are underestimated, and she has full hope of growing into the best blue-collar 3D wing in service.

It is not difficult to see from the past few seasons that Nesmith is a big heart player with a better performance at the critical moment, and has both ball-free ability and a certain ability to handle balls at mid-range distance.

Considering that the Lakers are also in trouble in renewing Reeves, the latter demands a new contract of more than $30 million, if Nesmith can be introduced, there is hope that the Lakers will have one more choice in the future team building level.

Pacers: Free up space demand and reorganization, whether the Lakers can get the opportunity to pursue Nesmith depends on how the Pacers adjust their team building strategy after Halliburton is expected to miss most of the new season.

If the Pacers hope to give up the restructuring lineup briefly in the 25-26 season, the deal is worth considering, with Vanderbilt having three years left in the contract, but his average salary is only about 11 million yuan.

Kneckett is a projection-type strategy worth betting on, and still has good training value. At the same time, he also received a first-round pick and a second-round pick from the Lakers.
