In 2023, the "ugly" anchor in the "double 11" live broadcast was disgusting.

Reporter Wan Jing

Recently, the Public Opinion Analysis Report on Consumer Rights Protection in double 11 in 2023 released by China Consumers Association (hereinafter referred to as the Report) shows that China’s consumer market continues to pick up, and consumer demand tends to be diversified and personalized. In this year’s "double 11", competition for "price power" is the main theme of business marketing, and the pursuit of "cost performance" has become a new trend of residents’ consumption. However, the problem of consumer rights protection is still the focus of attention from all walks of life. The rights protection problems mainly focus on the chaos of live broadcast, the quality of goods, the bad experience of mobile phone software advertising, and the dispute over promotion price.

Live broadcast and low price become hot topics.

China Consumers Association used the Internet public opinion monitoring system to analyze the related consumer rights protection from October 20th to November 16th. The results show that consumer feedback tends to be positive as a whole, and live broadcast and low price have become hot topics of consumer rights protection in double 11 this year. Besides the old problems of preferential price dispute, counterfeiting and poor after-sales service, price monopoly and software advertising have also brought consumers a bad consumer experience.

According to the Report, consumers mainly rely on video, Weibo, clients, news websites, WeChat, forums and other channels to reflect various consumer rights protection issues. It is worth noting that this year, consumers use video release to protect their rights with the highest amount of information, accounting for 42.93%; Followed by Weibo, accounting for 24.61%; The third is the client, accounting for 15.67%. This also reflects the "fancy renovation" of China’s consumer rights protection channels. The new media technology has been more and more widely accepted by consumers, and it has shown good "rights protection strength" in the actual consumer rights protection.

According to the monitoring data of China Consumers Association, the negative information about "live broadcast with goods" reached 1.565 million, accounting for 47.99% of the spit information, with an average daily information of 55,900. The amount of relevant information is mainly concentrated in the first half of double 11, reaching a peak of 94,700 on October 25th. The negative information of "live broadcast with goods" involves price monopoly, vulgar goods, false propaganda and other issues.

The case of rights protection disclosed in the Report shows that the anchor who made his fortune by judging ugliness in the "live broadcast with goods" is causing more people to resent it.

In addition, the problem of "fake and shoddy" commodity quality involved in "live broadcast with goods" can not be ignored. According to the monitoring data of China Consumers Association, there are more than 870,000 negative messages related to "commodity quality", accounting for 26.68% of the spit information. These negative messages were concentrated in the early days of "double 11" and reached the peak on October 25th, with 55,600 messages.

In addition to the problem of "live broadcast with goods", another "slot" that double 11 consumers spit out this year is the bad experience of mobile phone software advertising. People’s hot topics focus on the many forced jumps in mobile phone software advertisements, which make consumers hard to prevent and have a particularly headache.

According to the Report, many users have been voicing on social platforms recently, saying that their mobile phones are often disturbed by "shake" jump advertisements, and if they are not careful, they will jump to the "double 11" special session of shopping software, which is unbearable.

The dispute over promotion price is still the focus.

During the "double 11" this year, the old problems such as "promotional price dispute" are still the focus of consumer complaints, which mainly reflect the problems that merchants and platforms arbitrarily change preferential policies, suddenly cut prices, fail to protect prices, and induce consumers to cancel orders. For example, the recent incident that the price of the iPhone15′ double 11′ was reduced in the last two hours, which was highly concerned by public opinion, made many consumers who bought the iPhone 15 in the early stage of the "double 11" campaign feel that they were "backstab in price".

According to the Report, there are 63,800 negative messages about "promotional price disputes", accounting for 1.96% of the spit messages, with an average of 2,277 messages per day. The overall trend fluctuates and rises. On October 31, November 10 and November 13, spit messages appeared in a concentrated manner, with the highest amount of information on November 10, at 4,635.

According to the analysis of China Consumers Association, this year’s routines of platforms and businesses have been simplified, which are all attributed to "low prices", but more new competitions have also been derived from this. The progress of science and technology and the development of live broadcast format have brought more convenience to consumers, but their extensive management and loopholes have also affected consumers’ shopping experience to some extent. Specific performance in the following three aspects:

Simplification of rules does not mean that there are no rules, and the integrity consciousness and contract spirit of merchants need to be improved. "Price power" is the key to strengthening user stickiness in major platforms this year, and consumers are more sensitive to price than ever this year. However, this year, there are still cases of preferential policies adjustment or even direct price reduction after the final payment, and consumers have said that they have "encountered backstab". Behind the "shopping" of low prices, businesses and platforms should realize that the formulation of preferential policies should follow the market rules and the spirit of contract, and it is not acceptable to raise prices first and then lower prices. The constant change of prices for the second time will also hurt consumers’ feelings and brand image.

More and more new platforms and businesses are entering the market, and the government’s assistance and supervision of platforms need to be strengthened. This year’s "double 11" is the most attended by small and medium-sized businesses and Internet platforms, and the foundation of these "fresh blood" is relatively weak. Behind the chaos of "rollover" of live broadcast, there are vulgar goods and false propaganda caused by chasing traffic, counterfeiting and refund disputes caused by craving for income, and lack of after-sales service caused by imperfect system. Merchants and brands need not only more intimate assistance policies, but also stricter regulatory measures, so as to seek the improvement of quality and service beyond low prices and adapt to the trend of diversified consumption.

Drainage advertisements should be "convenient" rather than "disturbing people", and related App behaviors must be restricted and guided. In this year’s "double 11", consumers nicknamed it "all roads are electrified". Frequent and chaotic jumping of open-screen advertisements is a short-sighted behavior, which may bring some convenience to consumers, but more often it leads to consumers’ disgust and resistance. From the advertiser’s point of view, this approach may get a certain amount of clicks, but it consumes the user’s goodwill and trust. Open-screen advertising governance has been introduced at the beginning of the year, but it still needs e-commerce platforms, App developers and businesses to reach a consensus and strengthen self-discipline.

Consumers should be assured of their peace of mind.

The reporter found that this year’s "double 11" consumer rights protection public opinion was mostly triggered by the "low price" promotion of platforms and merchants. Platforms, anchors, merchants and consumers played games with each other in order to obtain the greatest benefits, and innovation and change were also in line with the characteristics of the current economic environment.

Liu Junhai, executive director of China Consumers Association and a professor at the Law School of Renmin University of China, believes that China has entered a stage of high-quality development, and people’s yearning for a better life has generally shifted from "whether there is" to "whether it is good". With the improvement of residents’ income level, the consumption structure has gradually shifted from survival to development and enjoyment, and the people’s requirements for the quality, environmental protection and safety of goods and services have also been continuously improved. Guided by the concept of high-quality development, the government conforms to the trend of people’s consumption upgrading and vigorously promotes green consumption, intelligent consumption and healthy consumption. Among them, it is also very important to constantly improve the consumption environment and solve all kinds of market consumption disputes.

In this regard, the Report also suggested that the future market competition should adhere to refinement, institutionalization and standardization, and provide consumers with more cost-effective products, better services and more convenient consumption experience with the help of digitalization and AI empowerment. Platforms and businesses should aim at "price power" and continue to exert their strength, adhere to legal compliance, tap consumer demand, and provide consumers with more cost-effective products. At the same time, seek to improve the "service power" and win the favor of consumers with better service and low price strategy.

The platform should earnestly fulfill its management responsibilities and maintain market order. On the one hand, give more support to small and medium-sized businesses, reduce service fees, provide support policies and conduct professional training to stimulate market vitality. On the other hand, we should strictly supervise false propaganda and price misleading, eliminate the chaos of live broadcast, improve the professional quality of anchors and create a level playing field.

The regulatory authorities should continuously improve their regulatory capacity and level in the field of live broadcasting. Make good use of scientific and technological strength, use emerging technologies to develop new means of supervision, and further strengthen the standardized management of platforms, anchors, businesses, etc. Be wary of "price monopoly" and "new routines" to ensure consumers’ peace of mind.

The media should play a greater role in guiding consumer behavior and helping consumer rights protection. Guide consumers to establish a correct consumption concept through public opinion propaganda, improve consumers’ awareness of discrimination, and enhance their resistance to induced consumption; Constantly broaden the channels of consumer rights protection, pay attention to the information of consumer rights protection on social media platforms, guide and help consumers to rationally protect their rights, and provide consumers with more rights protection.

The great loss of China football: the Chinese Super League created 21 goals alone, or South Korean foreign aid or 0 yuan left the team!

In the course of football in China, foreign aid has always played a decisive role. Among them, the 33-year-old foreign aid Jin Yuyou from South Korea has become a leader in the Super League. According to the Korean media OSEN report, Jin Jianyou received quotations from many giants in Japan’s J League and South Korea’s K League when his contract was about to expire, and is expected to leave the Super League for free.

Jin Jianyou’s career began in 2010, and he started his own football tour in the J League team Bird Habitat Sandstone. He also played for South Shui Yuan’s Samsung and Jin Quan’s Shangwu, and has rich experience in Korean leagues. In 2022, Jin Jianyou joined Chengdu Rongcheng with his mentor Xu Zhengyuan and quickly became the backbone of the team. According to sources, even J-League teams qualified for the AFC Champions League have taken a keen interest in Jin Jianyou, taking a fancy to his advantages of being fluent in Japanese and competent in multiple positions.

This season, Jin Jianyou played 23 Super League games for Chengdu Rongcheng, contributing 6 goals and 4 assists. Last season, he also handed in four goals and seven assists. After two seasons, Jin Jianyou scored 21 goals in the Super League, showing his excellent offensive ability. It is worth mentioning that the new Football Association will soon follow up the AFC Champions League foreign aid policy, and the Super League is expected to restart Asian foreign aid. At this critical moment, it will undoubtedly be a great loss for China football to let Jin Guiyou go.

Jin Jianyou’s play in Chengdu Rongcheng can be described as incisive, and his departure will undoubtedly make the team and fans feel sorry. However, the vagaries of the football world make all this unpredictable. Jin Guiyou’s free departure may bring opportunities to other teams in the Super League, but for China football, it is undoubtedly a loss if he finally loses such a powerful player.

Among Jin Guiyou’s potential next home, teams from J League and K League have offered him olive branches. This Korean foreign aid who can speak fluent Japanese is likely to continue his brilliant career in Asia. While facing great competitive pressure, the Super League team also needs to constantly adjust its strategy and plan for the team’s future. Under the background of AFC Champions League policy adjustment, Chinese Super League teams need to increase the signing efforts and cultivate more powerful Asian foreign aid. Although it is a pity that Jin Guiyou will leave, it may inspire the team and the Football Association to change their signing strategies. Let’s look forward to the performance of China football in the future and see if Chengdu Rongcheng can make up for this vacancy and reproduce its glory. (Laoqiu Super Ball Review)

Ding Yan Yuhang officially appeared! The first show scored 6 points, Nanjing Tongxi won 11 points, and the rookie broke out!

Nanjing Tongxi finally easily defeated his opponent 106-95, although Ding Yanyuhang scored only 6 points due to knee injury and his playing time was limited. However, the performance of new aid Abdul was excellent, and he scored 15 points. Xi Rejiang made some rotations in the lineup, but Blackney and Farr, both foreign AIDS, didn’t play.

Although he signed a contract with Nanjing Tongxi, Ding Yanyuhang was unable to participate in all competitions due to knee injury. However, in order to give back to the fans, he chose to play. Fortunately, the strength of the American explorer was relatively weak, and Ding Yanyuhang got many opportunities to shoot, and after making two three-pointers, he went off to rest.

Judging from the current situation, Ding Yanyuhang’s knee injury is still a big problem. He dare not exert himself when running, which makes it easy for his opponent to break through defensively. However, his 3-point shooting rate has remained at a high level, which can help the team.

The biggest surprise of this game is the new aid Abu Dhabi. His full name is Abdul Samaiti, and his playing style and appearance are very similar to Abdul Salamu of Xinjiang Men’s Basketball Team. He showed his comprehensive skills and contributed 15 points in the game.

Ma Guodong, an inside player, continues to perform well. He has been qualified for Sun Mingyang’s position and may even play better.

At present, the biggest hidden danger facing Nanjing Tongxi is the state of the West Thermal River. Gao Shumin, a mentor, used to help him, but now he often loses his temper for no reason and blames other players. Foreign teachers can’t help in time because of communication problems.

Nanjing Tongxi Team has become more attractive with the joining of Ding Yanyuhang. Although Ding Yanyuhang’s injury problem still exists, he can still contribute excellent three-pointers to the team. The addition of new aid Abu Dhabi has also brought new vitality to the team. However, we need to pay attention to some problems in the team, such as the state of the West Heating River and the communication problems of foreign teachers. I hope that Nanjing Tongxi team can make continuous progress and achieve better results.

  Xinhua News Agency, Hangzhou, July 10th Sports commentary: deepening the integration of sports and education to help the sustainable development of football in China

  Xinhua News Agency reporters Gong Bing, Xia Liang and Xiao Shiyao

  Guided by the Ministry of Education and the State Sports General Administration, the first China Youth Football League sponsored by China Football Association was launched in Hangzhou on the 10th. Up to now, 2329 teams have signed up for the competition. As the competition time of different groups is different, more teenagers will participate as more groups start to register. This is a national single sports event with a distinctive imprint of the integration of sports and education, and it is a practical implementation of the "Overall Plan for the Reform and Development of Football in China", or it will effectively promote the reform of school sports, bring a demonstration and leading role to the integration and development of sports and education in other sports, and lay a solid foundation for the reform and development of football in China.

  The launch of China Youth Football League means that the integration of sports and education in youth football has ushered in a substantial breakthrough in competition design and execution. The league will break the identity and qualification restrictions of contestants, and teams from schools, sports schools, club youth training echelons and social youth training institutions can participate. From the system design, the league will be built into a platform for cultivating and discovering young football talents, and the channel for professional football talents to enter the campus will be more smooth. Football seedlings in school also have more room for expansion in professional training and development.

  The launch of China Youth Football League is a powerful measure to promote the reform of school physical education. At the end of 2014, the Ministry of Education took campus football as the breakthrough and experimental field of school sports reform. So far, 32,780 characteristic schools of campus football have been set up in China, with more than 55 million young students participating in campus football activities, which laid a good foundation for popularizing football and expanding the football population.

  School physical education follows the educational concept of health first, helping students enjoy fun, strengthen their physique, improve their personality and temper their will in physical exercise. China Youth Football League aims at the healthy development of young players, insists on paying equal attention to cultural education and professional training, and trains socialist builders and successors with all-round development in morality, intelligence, physique, beauty and labor, which is a practical follow-up to the concept of school physical education. In recent years, school physical education advocates students to master a sports skill and cultivate lifelong sports habits. Under the framework of the system design of the integration of sports and education at the national level, the China Youth Football League with the characteristics of the integration of sports and education will be launched, which will promote the development of school sports reform in depth.

  The launch of China Youth Football League is an in-depth implementation of the "Overall Plan for Football Reform and Development in China". The plan of foot reform has been issued for more than seven years, which has pointed out the correct direction for the reform and development of football in China, and achieved some positive results. However, due to the weak overall foundation of football in China and the time needed for system construction, the results of the men’s football national team competition were poor or even missed, and professional leagues suffered multiple crises such as unpaid wages, withdrawal and dissolution of clubs. At present, the football situation in China is grim.

  Because of this, it is more necessary to lay a solid foundation, and the sustainable development of youth football has become the key to solving the problem. The "Overall Plan for Football Reform and Development in China" puts forward: "Promote the large-scale growth of young football talents." China Youth Football League will be a powerful driving force to achieve this goal. As a unified competition platform, China Youth Football League can not only examine the potential of national football teenagers, but also further help to build a scientific, efficient and complete youth training system. Only with a solid foundation and long-term achievements can China football usher in a bright future.

Fight to the last 3 seconds! Henan’s campus basketball league played "NBA flavor"

Who said that "decisive battle to the final countdown stage" is exclusive to NBA or adult basketball games? On the afternoon of May 13th, the gymnasium in zhengzhou institute of aeronautical industry management (Longzihu Campus) was packed with people, and the 2022-23 Jr. NBA Campus Basketball League Henan Station Men’s Team Final was staged here with passion. In the last 3 seconds of the game, Zhengzhou No.2 Middle School men’s basketball team was only 61:60 ahead of Zhengzhou No.11 Middle School men’s basketball team. The latter held the ball and still had a chance to win the game, but the ball passed to the basket was intercepted by the other side, which made Zhengzhou No.2 Middle School men’s basketball team win the championship!

This breathtaking game with "NBA flavor" also came to a successful conclusion for Henan Station of 2022-23 Jr. NBA Campus Basketball League. Although they failed to win the championship, the boys of Zhengzhou No.11 Middle School men’s basketball team fought to the last minute. Although they were defeated, they won applause and applause from the audience just like the champion.

"That’s great! This reminds me of my own game. " Xue Yuyang, a Henan basketball legend and CBA star who has been watching the game on the sidelines, sighed.

More than 3 minutes before the end, Zhengzhou No.11 Middle School men’s basketball team was still behind by 53:57, but the team took the lead to 60:57 with a wave of 7:0 climax. Subsequently, Zhengzhou No.2 Middle School men’s basketball team began to launch a counterattack, scoring 4 points in a row to overtake the score, and the scene was stifling. In the last 3 seconds, Zhengzhou No.11 Middle School men’s basketball team held the ball and still had a chance to win, but the ball passed to the basket was intercepted by the other side and eventually regretted losing.

Yu Bocheng, No.21, the core of Zhengzhou No.2 Middle School Men’s Basketball Team, performed well throughout the game, scoring 12 points, 8 rebounds and 3 assists, which helped the team win the championship, and at the same time won the most outstanding player (MOP) award, which was a prize envied by friends-Adidas Harden 7th generation boots. "Not only is the atmosphere hot, but it is also broadcast live on the whole network. It is a great improvement for me to experience such a competition. This victory cannot be attributed to myself, it is the result of the hard work of the whole team and the hard work of the coach. " Yu Bocheng said after the game. Ding Shaoxiang, the head coach of Zhengzhou No.2 Middle School Men’s Basketball Team, talked about the feeling of leading the team to win the championship, and also wetted his eyes with excitement: "It’s very hard to prepare for the battle in recent days. The children of the whole team are very tough both on and off the court, and the victory belongs to them."

Not only for the sake of winning or losing on the field, but also for more teenagers to feel the fun of basketball, so this season’s Jr. NBA put forward the core concept of "not just winning". While congratulating the champion team, Xue Yuyang specially came to the bench of Zhengzhou No.11 Middle School Men’s Basketball Team to give them hugs and encouragement, so as to interpret "not just to win". "Both teams have excellent performances and are very respectable. There are no losers on the scene today." Xue Yuyang said.

Being in the lively campus basketball game, Xue Yuyang was infected by the passion of the players and the enthusiasm of the audience. "I was deeply attracted when I arrived at the scene today. Such a good atmosphere and such professional hardware facilities made me find the feeling when I played ball. Today’s children are really happy, they can learn and play, and the environment for playing and learning is so good. With the participation of more and more enterprises and professionals, the development of campus basketball will surely get better and better. "

2022-23 Jr. NBA Campus Basketball League in Henan Station, a total of 16 teams from male and female groups participated in the competition, starting from May 8 in Henan Experimental Middle School. On May 11th, the women’s team final was held between two women’s basketball teams from Henan Experimental Middle School and Jiyuan No.1 Middle School, both of which are strong teams in the whole country. In the end, the former won by 4 points and won the women’s team championship trophy in Henan Station.

Iverson: O ‘Neill is the only reason why I didn’t win the championship.

Iverson: O ‘Neill is the only reason why I didn’t win the championship.

Recently, NBA legend shaquille O ‘Neill said in an interview that Allen Iverson is one of the top ten players in NBA history. This remark has caused extensive discussion and controversy. Iverson also posted photos of O ‘Neill on social media, and responded: "He is the only reason why I didn’t win the championship. # The greatest insider in history. " O’ Neill replied to Iverson: "You don’t need a championship, you are still one of the greatest players in history, and you are undoubtedly a Hall of Fame player."

As one of the most representative players in NBA history, shaquille O ‘Neill’s remarks undoubtedly aroused people’s attention and discussion. In his eyes, Allen Iverson is not only the top ten players in NBA history, but also one of the greatest players. This evaluation is undoubtedly a great honor for Iverson.

However, this evaluation has also caused some controversy. Some people think that although Iverson is a very good player, it seems too high to rank him in the top ten in NBA history. They believe that although Iverson’s career is full of personality and passion, there is still a certain gap between him and some other historical superstars in terms of personal achievements and team honor.

On the other hand, O ‘Neill’s reply also aroused people’s thinking. He said that Iverson can become one of the greatest players in history without a championship. This view is actually somewhat controversial. Although the champion is one of the important standards to measure a player’s career achievements, it is not the only standard. A player’s skill, dominance and influence on the game are also important factors to evaluate his historical position.

Generally speaking, the dialogue between shaquille O ‘Neill and Allen Iverson has aroused people’s discussion and reflection on the historical position of NBA. Every fan has his own standards and opinions, but the final evaluation needs to be based on a comprehensive historical background and objective data analysis.

Li Zhanglin left the team and joined the Fujian men’s basketball team. Come on, Snake, the future can be expected.

# Headline Creation Challenge #The official of Shanxi Guotou Professional Basketball Club recently announced through official channels that Li Zhanglin will leave the team and join Fujian Xunxing Men’s Basketball Team. This news was confirmed after friendly negotiation between the club and Fujian Xunxing Basketball Club and full communication with the players themselves. Li Zhanglin is the player selected by Shanxi team in the third place in the first round of CBA draft in 2021, and his departure will have a certain impact on Shanxi team.

Born in 1997, Li Zhanglin is 2.03 meters tall and is a power forward. As the scoring champion of CUBA history, he was selected for the Olympic men’s basketball team in 2019. Li Zhanglin’s flexible pace and accurate mid-range shooting left a deep impression on Shanxi fans. In the past two seasons, he represented Shanxi men’s basketball team in CBA league.

Looking back on Li Zhanglin’s performance in Shanxi team, he played 9.9 minutes per game in 2021-2022, getting 3.3 points and 1.8 rebounds. It is particularly worth mentioning that his three-point shooting percentage is as high as 42.9%. However, in the following season, due to injuries and other factors, Li Zhanglin only played two games.

For Li Zhanglin’s departure from the team, the Shanxi team thanked him for his contribution to the team in the past two years, and sincerely wished him to continue his hard work in the new environment and all the best in the future. Previous reports revealed that Li Zhanglin signed a 1+1 contract with Fujian team. This means that he will play for Fujian men’s basketball team for at least two seasons.

Li Zhanglin’s departure is undoubtedly a major personnel adjustment for the Shanxi team. As a first-round draft player, he showed great potential on the court. However, his performance has been limited by injuries and other factors. Leaving Shanxi team and joining Fujian men’s basketball team is a new beginning for Li Zhanglin, who has the opportunity to show his strength and potential in the new environment.

Fujian Xunxing men’s basketball team has been a strong team in CBA league in the past few seasons. Joining Fujian Men’s Basketball Team is a good opportunity for Li Zhanglin. He can train and compete with other excellent players to improve his technical level. At the same time, Fujian men’s basketball team will also benefit from his joining, and his personal ability and experience will have a positive impact on the development of the team.

One person, one city! Brother Alphabet is guaranteed again. Brother Alphabet won’t leave. He may die a stag.

In 23 playoff games, averaging 0.6 points and 0.6 rebounds, our hero Sa Narcisse-Adetokunbo has signed another contract with Bucks a few days ago, which is a fully guaranteed contract with a basic salary of one year, which means that Brother Alphabet is about to start his fifth season in NBA career.

As the second round show in 14 years, Brother Letter didn’t land in the NBA until 19 years, and it was the Bucks team where his brother was located that brought him to the highest stage of basketball. Since then, Brother Letter has never been separated from Brother Letter. So far in his career, Brother Alphabet has only played 8.4 minutes per game in the regular season, almost all of which is garbage time, before going up to play. Looking at the playoffs, it averaged 3 minutes in 23 games. There is no doubt that it has made no contribution to the Bucks’ championship journey, at least on the court.

It’s no wonder that the letter brother likes to mention the nickname of the related family, and the former Buck reporter GeryWoelfel.

The Lakers renewed their contract for 186 million yuan in three years, which is a win-win situation! The team points out two major risks: the problem is not just injuries.

On August 5th, Beijing time, it was the first day Anthony Davis was eligible to renew his contract in advance. The Lakers quickly offered a three-year maximum salary of $186 million, and Davis readily agreed. In this way, the 30-year-old Davis’ contract with the Lakers was extended to five years, with a total value of $270.5 million.

This renewal ensures that thick eyebrows will play for the Lakers until 2028. After James retires or joins another team, Davis will become a new leader, and his three-year contract renewal will start from the 2025-26 season, with an average annual salary of $62 million, setting a new record for the NBA’s average annual salary.

This is a win-win contract.

Buha, the Lakers’ record, said that this is a win-win contract for the Lakers and Davis. The Lakers have ensured the stability in the next five years, and there is no need to worry that James will retire and Davis will jump out of the contract next summer, leaving them facing the disaster of the free agent market. At the same time, Davis also got a long-term contract guarantee. After all, if he didn’t renew his contract in advance and suffered serious injuries in the new season, it would be difficult for him to sign such a good contract.

This is the second time Davis has renewed his contract with the Lakers. After winning the championship in 2020, Davis signed a new contract with the Lakers for five years and 190 million dollars. At that time, Davis chose a long-term contract, but at that time, Davis waited for more than a week to complete the signing. This time, the two sides only reached an agreement in just a few hours.

This signing can be regarded as a victory for the Lakers. If Davis refuses the player option and jumps out of the contract to sign, the Lakers will spend more money.

If Davis didn’t renew his contract in advance, but waited until he became a free agent, he would be eligible to sign a contract of $304 million, which is $344 million in six years, including the new season, instead of $270.5 million in five years. There is a one-year difference of 70 million between the two. The Lakers renewed their contract in advance, and the final salary paid was lower than his top salary in the 2024-25 season, and the risk in the later period of the contract was reduced.

Thick eyebrows were very dominant last season.

Last season, Davis re-entered the top ten players in the league, averaging 25.9 points, 12.5 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 1.1 steals and 2.0 blocks in 56 games. His shooting percentage (56.3%) and real shooting percentage (62.7%) both reached career highs.

At the beginning of the season, there were signs that the Lakers were handing over the offense, or more broadly, the team to Davis. However, a complicated foot injury in mid-December made him miss 20 games in a row, and his offensive performance was also affected by the injury (28.1 points per game before the injury and 24.7 points per game after the injury). Nevertheless, after James tore his tendon in February, Davis tried to return as soon as possible and help the Lakers move on.

Davis in the playoffs, both offensive and defensive ends are dominant. In 16 games, he averaged 22.6 points, 14.1 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 1.4 steals and 3.1 blocked shots, among which both rebounds and blocked shots ranked first in the league. In the first two rounds, Davis was the best defender in the league, but in the Western Conference finals, he was offset by Jokic’s offensive talent, but in four defeats, he still averaged 26.8 points, 14 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.3 steals and 2.8 blocks.

More importantly, thick eyebrows played 47 of the Lakers’ last 50 games, including 26 consecutive games, which is his new record since the 2016-17 season.

There are two major risks in renewing contracts.

Buha pointed out that this contract renewal is not without obvious defects for the Lakers. The first risk is Davis’ injury history, and it has a long history. This is worrying for a player who will turn 35 at the end of his contract. There is enough evidence that he misses at least 15-20 games every season, while he has missed at least 26 games in the Lakers for three consecutive seasons, including at least 36 games in two seasons. Since the 2016-17 season, he has never played at least 65 games in a season.

The Lakers may find a way to manage his load, reduce his playing time, or let him play only one game back to back when he is in his thirties.

Another less discussed risk is the sharp decline of Davis’ outside projection ability. An important reason why the Lakers can win the championship in 2019-20 season lies in Davis’ impressive jump shot ability. In the second game of the Western Conference in 2020, his winning three points helped the Lakers beat the Nuggets.

However, since then, Davis’ jump shot percentage has been declining, especially the three-pointer percentage. From the data point of view, the number of three-point shots of Thick Eyebrows in these four seasons is decreasing, from 3.5 three-point shots per game in 2019-20 season to 2.8 in 2020-21 season, only 1.8 in 2021-22 season, and only 1.3 last season. The more inaccurate he is, the more afraid he is to shoot. During his time with the Lakers, Thick Eyebrows shot only 28.1% from three points, compared with 25.7% last season.

Poor shooting brings the problem of unstable attack with heavy eyebrows. This is also reflected in his performance in the playoffs is always ups and downs, sometimes good and sometimes bad. In the 2023 playoffs, his average score was only 22.6 points, which was 3.3 points lower than his average score in the career playoffs.

The Lakers will rely on him to recruit stars in the future.

Although it is risky to renew the contract, the Lakers have to do so because they can’t find a new superstar. Before James signed in 2018, the Lakers were trying to find a successor to Kobe. It was the signing of James that successfully attracted Davis.

Next, Davis will play the role of James to help the Lakers attract new stars to vote. When Davis is healthy, the upper limit of the Lakers is very high. They are one of the best teams in the league and have the ability to compete for the championship.

Looking forward to the future, Davis will be the pillar recommended by the Lakers to other future superstar partners. Brother Alphabet, Tatum and Mitchell may all become free agents in 2025 if they refuse the player option. At that time, Davis will be 32 years old. Although his status may have declined, he will still be an elite force at both ends of the offense and defense. If the Lakers can successfully attract another superstar to join them, their prospects will undoubtedly be bright.

Of course, for thick eyebrows, his fruitful cooperation with the Lakers will also lay his future position in this team. At least, there is no problem for his No.3 jersey to retire here.

Crazy! For the Lakers to reduce their salary by $44 million, the Rockets voiced their sadness and wanted to build a new Harden.

This offseason, Austin Reeves and the Lakers reached a new contract of $56 million for four years. At that time, the whole league was surprised. Many people didn’t understand why Reeves accepted such a low price to return to the team. Even many managers in the Lakers believe that Reeves will not come back. The Lakers really couldn’t offer Reeves a big contract, but in the end, when Pelinka finished signing Reeves, the public screen was covered with amazing barrage.

Earlier, it was reported that the Rockets gave Reeves 80 million yuan for four years, but he still chose to return to the Lakers. But today, it was revealed that the contract given by the rocket was not 80 million yuan, but as high as 100 million yuan in four years. ESPN reporter Tim MacMahon reported that the Rockets had focused on Reeves before choosing Van Jordan, and their plan had already given an offer of $100 million for four years. But in the end, the Rockets chose to retreat after much consideration. They didn’t think Reeves was expensive, but simply thought that the Lakers would match this offer. They had no reason to let Reeves go.

The Rockets didn’t want to waste time on a player with a high probability of returning to the Lakers, so they focused on Van Jordan. Tim MacMahon finally even bluntly said that if the Rockets offered Reeves an offer and the Lakers didn’t choose to match, then the Rockets wouldn’t get Van Jordan. They will take Reeves as the team leader, then pursue Tommy Tam and increase the contract offer for Daluo.

Unfortunately, in the face of the privilege given by the Rockets, Reeves did not take active actions to convince the Rockets to make an offer in the end. He chose to interrupt contact and actively communicate with the Lakers. According to the Arenas rule, the Lakers can only give the draft Reeves a maximum of $56 million for four years, and Reeves can get an offer of more than 100 million for four years in the free market, but there is an additional clause, that is, once Reeves gets an offer of more than 100 million for four years from other teams, the Lakers can ignore the rules and have the right to match.

In theory, if Reeves wants to maximize the benefits, he can use the rocket to raise the price and let them report 100 million yuan for four years. Whether the Lakers choose to match or not, Reeves can be invincible and secure $100 million, but he gave up this right. We can only say that Reeves absolutely loves the Lakers. He likes to play with LeBron James, and he hopes to finish the empty catch with thick eyebrows. From a practical point of view, joining the Rockets is really attractive.

Reeves’ foul-making ability in the Lakers is called Little Harden. The reconstructed rocket needs a young potential star who can lead the team. Reeves’ offensive and defensive performance is also extremely brave. Such a player is a perfect candidate for the Rockets to build the Uduka system. Reeves averaged 13 points, 3 rebounds and 3.4 assists in the regular season last season, with a shooting percentage of 52.9% and a three-point shooting percentage of 40%. Reeves by going up one flight of stairs averaged 16.9 points, 4.4 rebounds and 4.6 assists in the playoffs, among which his three-point shooting percentage was as high as 44.3%.

It is worth mentioning that in the last 11 games of Reeves’ regular season, he averaged 19.8 points, 6.1 assists and helped the Lakers play 9-2. Without Reeves’ superb performance, the Lakers might not even be in the seventh place in the West. It is interesting that Reeves is strong when he is strong, not just in the face of warriors. Reeves is the only player in the Lakers team who still has a significant improvement in data shooting percentage in the series of the Western Conference finals against the Nuggets. He averaged 21.3 points and 5.3 assists in 39.8 minutes, shooting 54.9% from the field and shooting 56% from three points. As a draft in 2021, Reeves took a two-way contract and got 56 million yuan for four years, which is a counterattack. Such a player who came from the bottom, leaving his four-year $100 million behind, drastically reduced his salary by 44 million, which is very difficult for most people. This is too difficult.
