On October 7, James suddenly announced the social media today that he would announce a new decision. Some netizens speculated that James would announce his retirement. For this reason, the Lakers' last home ticket price soared. The seats sold for $85 were directly raised to $425. US media said that James and Amazon had reached a new cooperation. I hope James won’t retire as soon as possible. After all, he is in good condition. It is worth mentioning that the US media has ranked the leaders of each team in the new season. James is still on the list. Let’s take a look at this list. The leader of the East is Trae Young. As the cornerstone of the Hawks over the past years, it is reasonable for him to be on the list. He has an excellent ball-holding core at the current service, but his defensive ability is limited, so it is difficult to become a puzzle for the championship. The Celtics are Tatum. Although they suffered a major injury, in terms of the team, Tatum is still the best player in the Celtics. The Nets are Cameron Thomas, and the Nets really don’t have many outstanding players. After all, the team has 5 rookies alone.

Hornets have three goals. The Hornets have introduced many veterans and immediate combat power in the offseason, but they are still building a team around Dinwiddie. I hope they can reach their ideal height in the new season. The Bulls are Vucevic, and no matter what, Vucevic is also an all-star in the past. Although the team's record has not been very ideal in the past few years and has a young core, there should be no doubt that the God of War is the team leader. The Cavaliers are Mitchell, the strongest in the team, and there is no suspense to enter this list.

Pistons are Cunningham, the cornerstone of the team's team's future years. He will definitely become the top ball-holding core in the future. The Pacers are Halliburton, one of the best traditional point guards in active duty, and the Pacers have reached the division finals over the past two years but have suffered serious injuries. The Heat is Adebayo, he is the new team soul of the team ordered by Rilitin. Now he is in the non-sale level in the Heat.

The Bucks are Antetokounmpo, and there is no suspense. Although the letter may leave the team in the future, as long as he does not leave the team, the Bucks will build a team around him. The Knicks are Brunson. Although they were from the second round pick, they rely on their outstanding performance. Brunson is now considered the top ball-holding core in the league. The Magic is Banchero. Although this No. 1 pick is only in the third grade, he is already the top scorer in the league.

Raptors are Barnes. Although Barnes' upper limit does not seem very high, he is comprehensive enough and willing to stay in Toronto for a long time. This is already content for the Raptors, and they have been building a team around him. The 76ers are Maxi. To be honest, more fans probably recognize Embiid, but the Emperor's professional attitude is not likeable. The Wizards are CJ McCollum. There are too many young players in the Wizards, and the one who can really play is CJ.

West

The Mavericks are Clay. To be honest, I think it would be Thick Eyebrow or Irving, but they were given to Clay. He might be more like the leader of the locker room. The Nuggets are Jokic, and there will be no controversy. After all, Jokic is the number one player in the active league, and he has extremely high recognition and respect in both the locker room and the field. The Warriors are Curry, who is the number one person in the Warriors' history. He will be the leader of the team no matter when he reaches his position.

The Rockets are Van Jordan, but not Durant, which only means that the US media still does not recognize Durant's leadership ability. Although his personal ability is very outstanding, many US media do not recognize Durant as the team leader. The Clippers are Harden. Although Leonard is the nominal boss, those who have watched the Clippers' games last season know that there is only one boss in this team, which is Harden, who led the team to the playoffs last season. The Grizzlies are Morant, and to be honest, I think it should be Jaren Jackson.

The Lakers are James. Although the team has Doncic, James is obviously more respected in the team's locker room. Doncic is only recognized and liked by the management. The Timberwolves is Edwards, one of the best scorers in the league in active duty, and has become the league's top scorer at the age of 23. The Thunder is Alexander, who is now in the top five in the league and is expected to lead the team to win the championship next season.

The Suns are Booker. Judging from the Sun's contract renewal of Booker this summer, they plan to build a team around Booker for many years in the future. Booker is also good and is willing to rebuild with the team. The Trail Blazers are Lillard. Now that the team's soul has returned, it is reasonable that he is considered the leader of the team. The Kings are Sabonis, and Sabonis is one of the best centers in the service. He has a good ability to play the center with the ball with a good offense and pass.

The Spurs are literary teams, and literary teams are the future league facade and the cornerstone of the Spurs for many years to come. They are truly epoch-making and talented, and their upper limit is extremely high. The Jazz is Markkanen. There are too many young players in the Jazz now, and Marca is indeed the best player. The Pelicans are Herbert Jones, who is the spiritual leader of the team. Having said that, what do you want to say about the list given by the US media this time?
