The deal is here! Vincent and others leave the team, and the 31-point player in a single game joins the Lakers? This is a good reinforcement for substitutes

Doncic, James, Reeves, Hachimura Hiraki, Ayton, the defense is slightly average, and this offense can be fully loaded. In fact, after the All-Star season 24-25, the Lakers started with 3,408 points, ranking fifth in the league in the same period.

The starting offense, what about the substitute?

Explanation point 1: personnel composition. Except for Thiero, Laravia and Smart, the Lakers' substitutes are the same as last season. To put it more, none of the three of them focus on investing and attacking.

Explanation point 2: Helped power. The lowest power of the Lakers substitute in the 24-25 season was Vincent, with a value of 77% - 77 goals per 100 sports game were scored by teammates.

To sum up two points, we can tell whether the Lakers substitute is missing a player like Hunter of the Cavaliers and Pritchard of the Celtics.

At the same time, according to the US media Sports Illustrated, the Lakers and the Nets are negotiating a 3-for-1 deal. Specifically, he gave Vincent, Kleber and Mann in the second round of 32 years. What are the characteristics of

Mann?

Description Point 1: Position. In the 9,101 minutes of his NBA career, 46% of his 2nd position and 41% of his 3rd position. Obviously, he is a swingman with Mikal Bridges, Anunobi and others.

Explanation point 2: Hold on to invest. So far, he has made 2,549 shots in the three-point line, combining 55% of the assisted power. This shows that nearly half of the moves came from holding investment. In terms of efficiency, the shooting rate in the 24-25 season was 40%. For comparison, the top player among the substitutes is McConnell of the Pacers and 42% of the second-top player is Porter of the Bucks. In other words, Mann has the same high-level investment ability.

Explanation point 3: Projection range. So far, he has a shooting rate of 75% at the basket, a 44% at the basket, a 40% mid-range shot rate, a 36% large two-point rate, and a 37% three-point rate. Combined with the second point, although the efficiency is different from Durant, Irving and others, Mann can play the same tactical role - it can be both inside and outside.

From this perspective, it is not difficult to understand why Mann scored 31 points in a single game against the Rockets - the Rockets' single defense, assisted defense and even double-teaming effects were not ideal.

To sum up the above three points, we can define Mann's characteristics as Clarkson, Herro, etc. To be precise, it can hold the investment, has a large shooting range and can hit multiple positions. Based on this, if I get Mann as I wish, I think it is a good reinforcement for the Lakers' substitute.

Reason 1: Opportunity. Considering that there are not many players who can hold the shots on the Lakers substitute, it is guaranteed that Mann has the ability to hold the shots.

Reason 2: Efficiency. As I said just now, whether it is holding or shooting, Mann has relatively good efficiency in his class. The team's substitute firepower can be guaranteed to a certain extent under the premise of effectively digesting the ball's rights.

To sum up two points, opportunity is the prerequisite for efficiency, and efficiency can convert opportunities into scores. Considering that Vincent and Kleber are not very useful, it is obvious that the Lakers make a profit in this deal.
