Ariza and Artest swap, who earns more?

Ariza was younger and the Rockets won the future.

Artest is more mature now, with twice as many data as Ariza, and the Lakers have got defensive chips.

As long as it is business, there will be a win-win situation. Although there is no deal, the Rockets and Lakers can be regarded as two businessmen. You take my people, I'll take your people. What is the effect after transposition? What about the input-output ratio?

In terms of investment, the rockets seem to have made a profit, while the Lakers basically achieved their expectations. In fact, it was revealed by the media that the Rockets renewed Artest's contract for160,000 yuan for two years, but Artest refused. Artest earned 7.4 million yuan a year last season. At present, it is estimated that the Rockets will sign Ariza for 33 million yuan in five years, with an annual salary of 6.6 million yuan, saving nearly 6.5438+0 million salary space.

For the Lakers, Ariza, who performed well last season, is bound to increase his contract, at least to reach the middle level. But at the same time, the Lakers, determined to keep Odom, can only offer an annual salary of 5.6 million, which can't meet the needs of Ariza and his agent. However, Artest, who rejected the Rockets' salary of 6.5438+0.6 million for two years, is willing to join the Lakers. Judging from the news exposed by ESPN, the contract between the two parties is likely to be 6.5438+0.8 million for three years, that is, the annual salary is 6 million, which is basically in line with the expectation of signing Ariza.

In terms of output, we can only speak by strength and see what they can bring to the new owner. In contrast, young Ariza may not pay as much as Artest the beast, and it seems that the more things the Lakers get.

What did the rocket lose? What did you get? They lost a superstar and a reliable scoring point. Think about it. In the absence of McGrady, Artest played the role of Yao Ming's promoter, and in the absence of both Yao Ming and McGrady, Artest played the role of team leader. Moreover, after Artest joined, the Rockets became more cohesive, tenacious and tenacious. If he is gone, can the rocket continue this spirit? Can Ariza bring something like this? It seems difficult. At present, Ariza can't bear the burden of scoring, nor can he bring tenacious style to the team like Artest. He keeps a low profile and is incompetent as a leader. However, in the long run, Ariza will be an important pawn in the reconstruction of the rocket.

What did the Lakers lose? What did you get? To be honest, Ariza is only a role player at best, despite his eye-catching performance in the playoffs. Artest's defense is better than Ariza's, which will allow the Lakers' perimeter to defend by going up one flight of stairs. Although he is sometimes hot-headed, Artest's three-pointer strength is also very good, and he also has the low-post hitting ability that Ariza does not have, and his ability to create scores is also very strong. So from the Lakers' point of view, the Lakers not only didn't lose money, but made a fortune. Ron Artest signed a three-year contract and is now in his prime. He has just joined forces with Kobe Bryant, Odom (if he stays) and Gasol, and the Lakers may usher in another glorious dynasty.

On the other hand, Artest is also an unstable factor. There are still variables in his temper, shooting timing, whether he can adapt to the triangle attack system and so on. This requires the teaching of Zen master and the integration of the team. Of course, Artest's desire for the championship and self-control ability are also crucial, and success or failure may only be between thoughts.

Therefore, based on the above factors, from the book point of view, the Lakers are the biggest winners, and the Rockets are the ultimate losers. But facts always speak louder than words, and the final outcome depends on the development of time.
