My personal opinion is that drummond's joining the LA Lakers does not belong to hugging thighs, because drummond also belongs to the golden age of his career. You know, he played 25 games for the team in Qi city for half a season, and he can contribute 17.5 points 13.5 rebounds and 2.6 assists per game. Can you say that such a player holds his thigh? Although drummond is not satisfied with the popularity of small ball tactics in recent seasons, his inside guard and offensive ability are obvious to the naked eye. He can really help the Lakers' weak insider, so there is no such thing as hugging thighs.

Although the Lakers are defending champions, they still maintain the dual-core of James and Davis. But with the departure of many champions, this season's performance is not satisfactory. Nearly half of this season, the Lakers' performance is only the fourth in the West. For the defending champion, this performance obviously can't satisfy the fans. However, the elderly James and thick eyebrows have suffered corresponding injuries, which is also one of the reasons. It is for this reason that the Lakers management is allowed to operate.

There is no doubt that this year's Lakers are still a strong contender for the championship, but in the face of the luxury signing of the Eastern Power Nets, the Lakers obviously lost their advantage in the arms race. After losing Howard and McKee in the offseason, Gasol was introduced as a supplement, but after all, he was too old to maintain a high level of play in the long season. If they have Griffin and Jordan Jr. in the finals, when Aldridge's Nets meet, the Lakers have no advantage inside, and the Nets' outside advantage will be infinitely magnified. Now, with the addition of drummond, heavy-browed Davis will have more opportunities to go to the fourth position, which will also give him the greatest advantage in offensive firepower. Insider can pose a lineup of two towers attacking and grabbing, which will be a perfect combination. Plus perimeter, James' offensive combing and scoring ability at critical moments, they all have it.

In fact, NBA is also a business field. No one hugged anyone's thigh, but everyone was willing to fight and get hurt. I am willing to do anything for you. This year is also drummond's contract year. He needs a team to give him a chance to show himself on a bigger stage and make more efforts for his next contract. The reason why he chose to join the Lakers should also be to consider the tactical position and the corresponding ball rights that the Lakers can provide him.

Although sometimes we talk more about feelings and the truth of life, when an all-star player joins a champion team, he is hugging his thighs and holding a group. I think this statement is completely nonsense. Every player in the team pays and contributes to the victory, and no one in the team wins, let alone hugs his thighs.
