Chapter 478: James’ new partner is...

The news, or the rumors, is still very reliable.
Brand averaged 25+10 per game in the regular season last season and 25+10 in the playoffs. He also led the team and the Nuggets to play 7 games with regret.
In terms of data alone, this performance is ranked top in history, and can be side by side with Duncan and Garnett.
In other words, this has greatly increased the value of his transaction.
It is very feasible for the Clippers to trade Garnett with Brand as the main body.
And Brand is younger than Garnett. After he can't keep Garnett, he is used to exchange for an All-Star with a breakthrough.
This deal is not a loss for the Timberwolves.
After looking at the transaction, Gasol + Garnett, this future Hall of Fame insider combination...
Sun Hao was a little jealous after reading it.
But what about Bynum?
Start washing, cutting and blowing ahead of time?
The free market continues, and new contracts have been reached.
With his outstanding performance in the playoffs last season, Tim Thomas joined the Clippers with a four-year, 24 million contract.
This signing also drew further fantasies from fans. Is this a preparation for Brand's departure?
You must know whether it is Garnett or Gasol, they are not scoring-based players.
But Thomas is.
As a substitute insider, he can play with both of them, which is perfect.
And there are follow-up reports from the media that the Timberwolves and Clippers have sat down to negotiate, and the transaction between the two sides is proceeding very smoothly.
"It was only a matter of time before Garnett went to Los Angeles."
According to a Timberwolves executive, the deal negotiations between the two parties are even very close to being reached.
Sun Hao is also looking forward to it.
If this is really achieved, then the Los Angeles Derby will be a daily insider fight.
O'Neill is attacked by his sister-in-law and the Wolf King every day, the picture must be beautiful.
If there are transactions going smoothly here, there will naturally be bad ones.
For example, the Nuggets pursue Kidd, no matter how they bid, the Nets are not happy.
The Nuggets gave Terry + Nene/Camby/Martin one of three choices + three first-round chips, still unable to impress the Nets.
This makes some James fans feel angry.
Obviously you are short of insiders, I will let you pick these three dozen insiders, and give you three first rounds, but you even refused!
In terms of chips and suitability, this is really good.
However, from the standpoint of the Nets, the team's Trident has only run in for a season, and it has also reached the second round of the Eastern Conference.
They have no reason to take the initiative to make adjustments to the team at this time, let alone their system is dependent on Kidd's suggestions.
Sending Kidd away? It means that they have to overthrow the existing system.
The Nets? Not a Nuggets trumpet!
Interestingly, the Nets deliberately used Jefferson to trade with the Nuggets.
But obviously? The Nuggets didn't have much interest in Jefferson.
I don't want to give what you want? You don't want what I want.
The drama of the free market is really promising.
And? More than that.
The Kings' Bunge Wells performed well last season, averaging 13.6 points and 7.7 rebounds per game.
The former shooting guard of the Trail Blazers? This is playing as a power forward.
Although there is no amazing series against the Spurs in history that averaged 23+12 per game? But the Kings still offered him a five-year, 36 million contract extension.
Then Bunge Wells refused!
This guy, who once scored 50+ in the playoffs during the Blazers era, obviously feels that his value is far more than that.
He is ready to test the free market and seek a higher-paying contract.
Bunge Wells? Sun Hao is still very familiar.
In history, he did this too? Finally, he found that no one wanted him and signed a two-year, 5 million contract with the Houston team at the time.
At that time, Yao Ming was playing for the Houston team. Domestic fans screamed for the big bargain and gave him a friendly nickname: Muscle Stick.
In this matter, Sun Hao also felt that the Rockets made a profit.
But Wells' positioning? It's a bit like Tim Thomas, who the Lakers declined before.
Offensive is capable, but defense almost means? After all, he is 1.96 meters tall.
Not everyone can be, or even close to Barkley.
The price of 36 million in 5 years? Almost.
And this kind of height becomes inside in the name, can it show that Wells's weight is increasing? It is not doing well in weight control.
It seems that what happened in history will happen again.
Shall Kupchak prepare to pick up the leak?
After thinking about it? Sun Hao still gave up.
The Lakers already have Millsap. If you sign Wells again, it will be another matter if the effect is good, but Millsap will definitely be put on the bench.
The free market is still going on, and Sun Hao started Sun Yue on the national team.
The Chinese team now has Yao Ming Yi Jianlian on the inside and Zhu Fangyu on the front line. He is the only one who lacks an outside partner who can help defensively.
Nothing is more suitable than Sun Yue.
Therefore, what Sun Hao did to Sun Yue also had his own consideration.
And when Sun Hao practiced Sun Yue, he was ruthless.
The effect is also very good.
Sun Yue has practiced with Sun Hao more or less in the past few summers, so he is very familiar.
Second, Sun Hao, the boss of the national team, unless Sun Yue doesn't want to play in the national team anymore, otherwise he can only endure it.
But after practicing, you will find that this is a good thing for Sun Yue.
His Mabao masculine temperament was being worn away little by little, and that tough temperament was being practiced little by little.
The training of the national team was carried out in an orderly manner, and the free market there soon saw new trends.
The Clippers and Timberwolves deal fell through.
There are two main reasons for the failure.
One is that the Timberwolves hope to join Livingston in the trade, which is unacceptable for the Clippers.
Although Livingston's development in the Clippers in the past two years has not been as good as imagined, his talent is still visible to the naked eye. What he lacks is only opportunity.
Well, just like Reggie Jackson, Darren Collison, and Harden in history.
And the Clippers traded Mobley away, which shows that they are ready to rightease Livingston.
What, Livingston is not famous in history?
Wake up, that's Livingston after the broken leg!
Before he broke his leg, he was hailed as "the successor of the magician"!
So this is not acceptable to the Clippers.
The second is Garnett's attitude.
Although the Clippers have been traded for Gasol, Garnett does not have a strong intention to join the Clippers.
The fatal point of the Clippers lineup is that they lack a good enough perimeter scorer.
In the current league, core partners inside and outside are almost standard.
Wizards’ MM, Lakers’ instant kill, Magic’s Warcraft agents and so on.
This deal made fans look forward to it very much, but in the end it was nothing.
On the other side, the negotiations between the Nuggets and the Nets were also lost.
Compared with the previous few signings and transactions, the news of these two days is a bit thunderous and raining.
However, the matter was far from over so soon.
As the free market continues, most of the signings have been settled.
At this time, the trading market began to not calm again.
First of all, after the Timberwolves and Clippers trade failed, the Celtics began to offer the Timberwolves as Sun Hao expected.
It's just... their offer was rejected by the Timberwolves.
The reason is simple. Although the Celtics have a poor record in the past two years, there are no newcomers who have emerged in particular.
Some people would say Al Jefferson, who was the main bargaining chip in the Garnett deal in history?
Jefferson...because history has changed, he just played Gasol on the bench last season, averaging less than 10 points per game.
This is also the change brought about by the butterfly effect.
The Celtics' Big Three seem to be dead.
But the next piece of news interprets that sentence very well: the east is not bright, the west is bright!
The Nuggets, who failed to pursue Kidd, did not stop their reinforcement.
And this time they set their sights on a player who looked incredible, but more feasible than Kidd.
Alan Iverson!
Iverson's experience in recent years, and this summer's protagonist, Garnett, has the feeling of "fifty steps and a hundred steps".
The 76ers' record in recent years has also been sluggish, and unlike the Timberwolves, the management has been trying to strengthen.
First is Van Horn and Coleman's No. 1 pick combination, then "Big Dog" Glen Robinson, and then Chris Weber.
The team management is not careless, but without exception, they can not produce a chemical reaction with Iverson.
Iverson's scoring average is still very high, but the team record is still not prompted.
Averaged 33 points per game but failed to lead the team to the playoffs. This is a microcosm of the 76ers now.
So the situation with Garnett is also different, not that Iverson wants to leave, but the 76ers want to take the initiative to change.
Husbands and wives still talk emotionally because of the long time together, not to mention between the team and the players.
One person, one city is rare in the NBA, and that's not just for the players.
And another important reason to promote this potential transaction is the growth of "little AI" Iguodala.
There is a characteristic of NBA deals. The more rumored the deal, the lower the possibility of finalization.
And if there are few rumors, it might be announced one day.
Just before the end of the July freeze period, the 76ers officially tweeted:
"Thanks to AI for his contributions to the city of Philadelphia over the past ten years, and for allowing us to always remember the 76ers' AI, and we also wish him a better performance and achievement in his next stop in Denver."
The 76ers sent Iverson to the Nuggets!
AI will go to Denver to start a new chapter in his career!
The specific transaction details are that the 76ers sent Iverson to get Jason Terry, Nene, two future first-round draft picks and a special deal worth 5 million from the Nuggets!
According to ESPN follow-up reports, before the deal was concluded, the Clippers were also negotiating with the 76ers.
The Clippers tried to use Brand and Gasol as a bargaining chip to pull the Timberwolves and the 76ers into a three-way deal to form a dual-core lineup of Iverson and Garnett.
Livingston was the reason why the transaction fell apart.
This time it was the 76ers who wanted Livingston, but the Clippers didn't give it.
So in the end, the 76ers chose another trading partner, the Nuggets, to complete the deal!
After this transaction happened, the fans completely exploded in the forum.
"Iverson and James? This..."
"Foreigners are so pitiful, they don't even know how to fuck!"
"This is too silly! The champion of the 96 golden generation, teamed up with the champion of the 03 platinum generation!"
"Next season, the Nuggets won't need tactics, Iverson will play, Iverson will play James, James will play, James will play Iverson..."
"I have a question, is the ball enough?"
"I'm also worried about this. AI and LeBron are both ball-holding, right? He doesn't match the two together!"
"Yeah, if AI can go to the Clippers, it would be great. He and the Wolves will definitely go well together, and if Livingston stays, the Clippers will be the enhanced 76ers, the favorite!"
"It sounds like it's not the favorite now!"
"That's right! When the Nuggets were pursuing Kidd before, I didn't hear you say it's not good! Watch the Olympics more and see how they play together!"
"It's not that AI can't play off the ball. He has been a shooting guard when Larry Brown was coaching. That was his peak, okay!"
"Can't agree anymore. AI and LeBron are stronger with the ball, but they can also play without the ball. They will have a chemical reaction!"
"Iverson, JR Smith, James, Martin, Camby, this starting lineup, I admit I'm sour!"
"This year's free market is lively enough! Mars will hit the earth again next season!"
"I have a hunch that this is far from over, and maybe even the trade may not happen in the summer, but in the next season."
"Then if not, someone else is going to stand upside down and eat shit?"
"By the way, who eats found his trumpet? I have always wanted to watch his videos!"
...
Sun Hao, his expression was like this when he saw this transaction: w(?Д?)w
Unbelievable in shock.
He knows that Iverson and Anthony have joined forces in history, but now it is with James!
You have to ask Sun Hao, the traverser, if the two can play together, and Sun Hao can't give the exact answer.
It's not that James is better than Anthony, but that the two men's playing styles are different, so different!
The biggest reason for the failure of the combination of Anthony and Iverson in history is that their playing styles are too similar.
The same heavy offense and light off defense, the same need a lot of shot power, the same will not organize an offense.
Generally, one such player is enough for a team, and more is to play the role of the sixth man on the bench.
As a result, the two of them were combined, and the result is predictable.
But James... is a good fit for Iverson!
In history, the Nuggets are still the same people~EbookFREE.me~ But after switching from Iverson to Billups, the team has a feeling of "Is the golden scales in the pool, once the wind and clouds change the dragon" .
The reason for this is obviously not that Billups is better than Iverson.
But Billups is more suitable for Anthony!
He made up for what Anthony was missing, he can defend, play the organization and control the rhythm.
These are exactly what James is good at, and he can also be as good as or even better than Lupus!
Of course, the problem of ball rights may become a potential problem for the Nuggets, and this is also a challenge that coach George Carr will encounter.
What exactly these two can become, only in the new season will I know.
But no matter what, it is very exciting!
