Chapter 335 The Trading Market Is Open! Managements Who Want To Curse!
The only season in which points per game were higher than points losses.
The team brought in Long and Holiday to form a backcourt partner.
The combination of Brother Nongmei, Holiday and Long, the average score per game was 1.3 points higher than the points lost.
At this level…
Angie simply gave up on Gentry.
Don’t really think it’s nonsense to win the championship with defense?
While Ainge continues to pick the right coach to lead the Celtics to the title, free agency is about to begin.
Looking at the time, ESPN columnist Barbas made himself a cup of coffee and prepared to fight all night.
For the media, traffic is equivalent to dollars.
After the opening of the trading market, whoever has the first-hand information means whoever has the most traffic.
At this time, Barbas was also preparing for the all-night battle, and at the same time began to look forward to it.
“With 10 minutes to go, the free market is about to start, so I don’t know what kind of deals the teams will have this year?
“The Celtics, the Lakers, these championship contenders, certainly won’t make cap space to wait 10 summers.
“So who would choose to gamble?”
Although basketball is a five-person sport, when building a lineup, it may not be possible to achieve the effect of 1+1 equals 2.
However, if a multi-giant team can be formed, it will still give fans and the media infinite expectations.
At 0:00 on July 1, the NBA summer trading market officially opened.
In an instant, transactions are directly swiped on the screen.
The most eye-catching is of course the Celtics trade.
Celtics send: Long, Okur, Tony and a 2011 first-round (top 15 protected) pick and some cash.
Nets send: 2010 second-round pick and a $6 million trade exception.
In this deal, the Celtics paid a great price to get rid of Okur’s remaining three-year, $30 million, and Tony’s two-year, $20 million junk contract.
Long’s performance in the playoffs last season was also commendable.
Averaged 13.2 points, 7.6 assists and 4.8 rebounds per game.
The Nets currently do not have a big contract. Josh Howard, who was traded from the Mavericks before, did not choose to keep him after the contract expired.
Brook Lopez is still on his rookie contract, and the only big one is Devin Harris, who was an All-Star last season.
Since Long is still on a rookie contract, the Nets have enough salary space to eat the two junk contracts.
Originally, the Timberwolves were also a good choice, but the Timberwolves or McHale didn’t want Long to guide.
The current lottery guards of the Timberwolves can make a table of mahjong, and McHale doesn’t want Long to guide at all.
He wants Aldridge.
Although McHale is a Celtic legend, it is impossible not to help the Timberwolves at all.
After thinking about it, Angie finally chose to trade Long Gui to the Nets.
And a long guide, certainly can not let the Nets eat a 50 million garbage contract, and finally had to add a protected first round.
Barbas also felt good about the Celtics deal, and directly gave a B+ evaluation.
“Getting rid of Tony Allen and Memet Okur’s $50 million contract over the next three years, the Celtics’ salary is more healthy and reasonable~~. 55
“The roles of Rajon Rondo and Gu overlap, Allen Iverson’s decline last season, he didn’t even make the All-NBA team, and no one knows how Allen Iverson will be next season.
“The Celtics made the right decision at the right time, and I give it a B+ rating!”
“The Nets are still in turmoil, they know that they are only relying on the New Jersey market, and they can’t make big fish in the free market in the summer of 10 years.
“After all, their opponents are New York, Chicago and Miami, and they choose to continue to rot and wait for the team’s rookies to play. 35
“Getting a potential rookie Rajon Rondo and a first-round pick has achieved its purpose for the Nets. I give the Nets a B rating. 99
After commenting on the Celtics and Nets transactions, Barbas continued to comment on the transactions of other teams.
When he saw the Lakers trade, Barbas was also taken aback, and then there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.
“What are the Lakers doing?!
Lakers send: Last season’s second-round pick Chalmers, a 2011 second-round pick.
Heat send: A $6.5 million trade exception.
The Lakers gave up Qian Moss, and also felt that Iverson’s decline was indeed powerful, and there was no need to reserve a guard of about 1.8 meters.
But trading a trading exception made Barbas think.
Although the Lakers have two big contracts, Kobe and Big Hard,
But there are only two big contracts.
Bynum is still on a rookie contract, a restricted free agent, and has not completed a contract extension with the Lakers.
Odom’s big contract has been completed and he is currently a free agent, but the Lakers have Odom’s bird rights and can complete the cap extension with the Lakers.
Bryant’s contract next season is $23 million.
Big Hard’s contract has expired, and the contract with the Lakers in advance is $51 million for three years.
Big Hard’s contract for next season is $16 million.
The salary cap is $57 million.
After obtaining the Heat’s trade exception, the Lakers are completely free to sign an All-Star player in the free market!
As soon as the deal ended, the management of many teams started greeting Riley directly.
“Is Pat Riley an idiot?! The Lakers have freed up cap space to sign a third All-Star in free agency!
“It’s disgusting that the famous Lakers help the Lakers to trade!
“The defending champion, but also to continue to strengthen the star players, this is exactly the same as the Celtics back then! The league should thoroughly investigate this deal!
“”
All team executives are shocked, the Lakers next possible trade.
But the Lakers suddenly fell silent after the trade.
The trading market will not fall silent because the Lakers do not trade.
The Celtics signed a two-year, $7,000,000 extension to Davies, and a two-year, $5,000,000 extension to the Great Saint.
After dealing with the team’s expiring contract, the Celtics began to recruit people on top of freedom.
First, with the former Mavericks star Finley, reached a minimum salary contract.
Antonio McDyess was one of the Celtics’ main targets, but was cut.
After Uncle Mu announced his retirement, the 76ers began to look for a suitable substitute for Dayao on top of freedom.
But in this era, especially in the East where top centers gather, a good blue-collar center guard is ridiculously expensive.
Either one starts with a $7 million contract.
It’s not that the 76ers can’t get such a contract, it’s mainly that they don’t want to give such a contract.
Iverson’s contract expires at the end of this season.
The 76ers management didn’t re-sign Iverson, just thinking about 10 summers.
Iverson’s breakthrough speed dropped significantly last season, and his influence on the court dropped significantly.
Although it has also begun to transform, but the effect is not good to say how.
Dayao is still at the peak, and the 76ers are also preparing for the summer of 10 years to see if they can sign a perimeter star to replace Iverson.
Therefore, the 76ers gave Antonio McDyess a two-year, $14 million contract with a team option for the second year.
This price is definitely the highest price that the current championship team can give.
The Celtics’ cap space is locked, and the Lakers have no shortage of insiders.
Antonio McDyess packed up and flew to Philadelphia.
After signing Antonio McDyess, the 76ers then re-signed Iverson to a one-year, $20 million deal.
Everyone knows that this contract is simply a pension contract.
After the arrival of the summer of 2010, Iverson’s contract expired, and Antonio McDyess’ combination (Wang Dezhao) is a team option in the second year. As long as the 76ers do not implement it, it can free up salary space.
The contract expired Artest, 76 people directly let it test the waters of the free market.
Since the Auburn Hills Palace incident has not happened in this history, Artest’s reputation is much better than the original history.
As one of the champions of the 76ers, Artest wants the 76ers management to give him a five-year, $50 million contract.
Just look at Artest’s performance last season, the annual salary can be given tens of millions.
But Artest is 30 years old!
The end of this contract Artest is 35 years old, maybe it will be a garbage contract in the next few years.
And this time point is too embarrassing, stuck at this juncture in 2010.
The 76ers management thought for a long time and decided to give up Artest.
Iverson is the soul of the 76ers, Andre Iguodala is the rookie he selected and cultivated, Dayao is still at his peak, and there is still the Longguo market.
In contrast, Artest has no advantage.
Although he may be complained of cold-blooded, 76ers general manager Billy King doesn’t care at all.
In the summer of 2010, with Dayao and Andre Iguodala, a big fish was caught, and the 76ers could maintain the competitiveness of the championship for several years!
