Chapter 362: [Crazy reinforcement, 4 star holding group]

Only a few days after the NBA free market opened, many big deals appeared. The most shocking thing was that the Lakers formed "F4".
The Lakers signed Carl Malone and Gary Payton one after another. O'Neal has been preparing since the first round was eliminated. The three often partnered in the star game and have each other's phones. Privately, they talked about cooperation.
The two veterans chose the Lakers. One is the high exposure rate of big cities, and the other is that the Lakers have the background of the championship. The previous three consecutive championships are too impressive. The two believed that the Lakers could not win last year because of the flaws in the No. 1 and No. 4 positions, and their weaknesses were compensated after joining.
As soon as the deal was announced, O'Neill was very proud when chatting with Guo Xu, and felt that the Suns could stabilize the new season. And both veterans came to see him, which proves that the Lakers are still his team.
Many media predict that Bryant will jump out of the contract in the summer of 2004 and pursue a larger top salary. O'Neill's plan is to lead the Lakers to win the championship and then request the management to renew the contract in advance, otherwise he will jump out of the last year's contract in 2005.
Guo Xu estimated that both of them wanted to force each other away. The contradiction outside the "OK Group" was made public last season.
Kobe's ambitions do not allow himself to continue to be a foil to others. As his strength improves, and O'Neill's age gradually increases, the restlessness within the Lakers will increase.
Seeing Austrian fat is so happy, Guo Xu couldn't bear to pour cold water on him. If the two had to be separated, Old Bath must choose to keep younger Kobe, even if O'Neal is still the league's first center.
The Lakers have a hard time trying to win the championship, and even F4 has to work hard to keep fit. Malone is 40 years old and Payton is 35 years old. Last season, their beautiful data was due to their teammates' poor strength and playing with the ball. When they reached the Lakers, they had to reduce the number of shots.
John Stockton, who has just announced his retirement, is in a circle, and the statues of the old Jazz are all built. What about the Marron?
The Bucks management collapsed. Last year they sent Ray Allen, Kevin Olly, Murray and a first-round draft pick before switching back to Payton and Mason. As a result, Payton, who can attract fans, played for half a season. He ran away, leaving only one Mason who had no basket and was good at taking the dunk runner-up.
In order to retain Payton, the Bucks management had previously sent low-paying high-energy point guard "Alien" Sam Kassel and center Elvin Johnson to the Timberwolves in exchange for defender Anthony Piller and forward. Joe Smith.
Because Piller chose to jump out of the contract, it was almost the Bucks who sent the Timberwolves a star, and helped the other party clean up Joe Smith's garbage contract. There is probably an insider deal between the two parties, but this time Wolves manager McHale was not caught.
For the next two seasons, Kassel's annual salary was 3.7 million and 4.1 million US dollars, it is difficult to imagine this is the salary of a player last season 19.7 points 4.4 rebounds 5.8 assists.
At first glance, the strength of the Western team has greatly improved, and the Nets management who has reached the finals for two consecutive years can't sit still. However, there are not so many good players in the free market to choose from, and the Nets' internal weaknesses are too obvious, and it is not possible to reinforce them.
The Nets manager was excited and gave Alonzo Mourning 22 million in 4 years without a fight because of kidney disease last season. I believe he has recovered to health safely.
What do you believe in what others say? The Nets have no money to throw away.
The Spurs, who urgently need to strengthen the inside, can only choose one of Olavokandi and Nestorovic. They signed the latter for $ 42 million in six years. This price is significantly higher, but without signing, the Spurs cannot defend their title next season. Nestorovic has at least a good body, can guarantee inside defense, and will not let opponents do whatever they want in the penalty area.
The Spurs also signed Lakers veteran Robert Horry to reinforce the No. 4 position. He has rich game experience and has a good way to evacuate the inside.
Because Horry and Bowen had very strong outboard moves, Guo Xu thought about digging Horry into the sun, but gave up after considering it. There are too many new potential inside the Suns, poor playing time allocation, Haslem's defense is better than Horry, single defense can grab rebounds, and the offensive end of the open shot is enough, there is no need to pursue Horina's 35% third There are no points per game.
Horry can't run fast, and he can't run away. If this year's second-round rookie James Jones came to the No. 4 spot, he can also shoot a three-pointer and run much faster. Training him is also good for the future of the team.
On the 17th, the Eagles, Timberwolves, Knicks and 76ers completed the four-team big deal.
Eagles forward Glenn Robinson went to the 76ers to get the Timberwolves' retired player Trier Brandon.
The Knicks traded the "madman" Sprewell to the Timberwolves and got the 76ers' Van Horn.
The 76ers also sent second-round rookie Tyres Hanson and the 2007 first-round draft pick to the Hawks, receiving center Mark Jackson from the Wolves.
The 76ers and Timberwolves profited from this transaction. The two players were traded because of the conflict in the locker room.
Iverson said excitedly: "I like big dogs. He is a good player who can get many points but not more points than me. It strengthens our striker."
Garnett said: "Now I have Kassel and Sprewell, what the first round of curse can go to hell."
Then, the Timberwolves signed Olavokandi with a three-year special deal of 16.2 million US dollars, and the lineup is too strong.
The King also received strong aid and completed a three-way deal with the Pacers and Spurs.
The Spurs sent Danny Ferry to the Pacers, got the striker Turkoglu from the Kings, and the swingman Ron Mersel from the Pacers. The King also sent Pollard to the Pacers to get the All-Star Brad Miller last season.
According to media evaluation, Weber can feel relieved in the new season, and Miller can do Weber's work in addition to breaking through.
The Spurs have also strengthened. Turkgro is an excellent striker. Playing a starter or substitute can help the team. Ron's state of decline is very strong, which is an addition.
Without the Pacers inside, Miller's strength fell sharply, and O'Neal had to undertake more tasks, but they had no choice. The salary space was doomed to fail to renew Miller's contract. It would be better to trade it early.
The Warriors and Mavericks transaction was the most surprising. The Warriors sent Danny Fordson, Chris Mills, Welsh, and the star Jamison to the Mavericks, replacing Eschmeier and "Little General" Johnson. , Puopeye-Jones, Rigato and Van Exel.
Battier was dumbfounded. what's going on? The team boss is gone, how can the Warriors send warmth like this? Will Van Exel and I be the core offensive in the future?
The truth is that the team hasn't scored a few years in a row ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Can't make the playoffs, the Warriors management is completely disappointed with Jamison, they want to cultivate by choosing another core, regardless of the new season.
The old Nielsen changed his mind, the Mavericks have Nowitzki, Nash, Finley, Jamison, and the opponents are shaking!
However, the Mavericks lineup is unreasonable at first glance. The hidden dangers of poor defense in the penalty area can't be compensated. The trader has a lot of strikers, and the ball rights are not enough. Old Nielsen felt that he could win this way, and he had to attack to kill the opponent. This old man was crazy.
After watching these horrible deals in July, President David Stern was a little unhappy, and the Lakers, Timberwolves, and Mavericks all gathered together for the four stars. He doesn't want stars to concentrate to this level, there are only a few teams left to compete for the championship.
What about teams that have only one star? After the start of the game?
If you do n’t put it down, they ca n’t see hope ... (https :)
