Chapter 466: [Heavy deal, follow the rules]

The sun lost the first game after the star game, losing to the Timberwolves 95 to 110 away.
Young players can't guarantee their status as soon as they relax. Howard, Steve Blake and others perform poorly. Joe Johnson and Marion also have poor feelings. The sun mainly depends on Guo Xu, Nene and Haslem. With.
Haslem played superbly in this game, scoring a career-high 22 points and 10 rebounds, 10 of 14 shots, but unfortunately cut empty.
Timberwolves small forward Szebiak returned and the team added a star.
Half-season Szebiak did not perform as well as last season, but his appearance is a stable three-point shooting point, which can help his teammates to open up space. It is definitely more reliable than the blue-collar swingman Trenton Hassel.
Szebiak scored 9 points in the field and made a key three-pointer in the last quarter.
The Suns lost to the Timberwolves in the regular season, which is a big enemy in the playoffs. "Wolf King" Garnett is also a popular MVP candidate in the regular season, and this season's statistics have reached the peak of his career.
Guo Xu has more chances to win the MVP. One is that the Suns have a better record, and the other is that his two key data are overwhelming Garnett. At present, he is the leader in scoring and assists. He also has the opportunity to become the league's first in steals. Both are 2.4 and Byron Davis are the same. His efficiency value of 30.5 is also higher than Garnett's 29.4, ranking first and second in the league.
Obtaining MVP will greatly improve the player's status, and Garnett now has a feeling of "being both a student and a student".
On the February 18 trade deadline, there were several heavy trades in the NBA.
"Smiling Assassin" Thomas has not stopped the transformation of the Knicks, I hope the team play a role in the playoffs this year.
In the three-way deal between the Knicks, Bucks and Eagles, Van Horn was sent to the Bucks, and the Knicks got Tim Thomas and the Eagles center Mohamed. The Hawks got the Knicks 'Michael Doriak and the Bucks' Joel Pulkbila, as well as a 2005 second-round draft pick.
Van Horn averaged 16.4 points and 7.2 rebounds per game, the team's third offensive point, second only to Marbury and Houston. Thomas averaged 14.1 points and 5 rebounds per game for the Bucks. The advantage is that three-pointers are better.
The Hawks sent home stars Sharif Rahim and Jacques Vaughan in exchange for the Warriors' expiring contracts Avery Johnson and Van Exel.
This transaction is purely for the sake of ruin. After the Hawk Pendant Hardy reimbursed the Hawks, this season was completely hopeless, and their salary was still very high, because they had eaten the bad contract of Trier Brandon. In this way, they can free up more than 20 million salary in the summer.
The Warriors are also rotten teams. Dig Laem is trying to get an experienced star to sit in and facilitate reconstruction in the summer.
The biggest deal today was that the Pistons sent guards Lynch Hunt, Chuck Atkins, a first-round draft pick next season, and 2003 No. 2 pick Dakko Milicic to the Blazers. Star power forward Rashid Wallace and defender Mike James.
Prior to this transaction, the Pistons won 50 consecutive years, but never missed the finals. Rashid will be the last piece of the puzzle on their way to the crown. Rashid brings not only offense, but also a huge contribution on the defensive end.
Guo Xu thought that the big deal for the Pistons would not happen, because the Hawks had sent Ratliff to the Bucks, and they didn't have enough chips to move the Blazers to deal with Rashid Wallace.
In the past life, the Pistons recruited Rashid, who played only one game for the Hawks, into the lineup at no cost. He also cleaned up the garbage contracts. Now that the Eagles are not involved, the Pistons have to "bleed" if they want to strengthen, and finally they choose to endure the pain and send Milicic who has been sitting on the cold bench.
For this deal, the head coach Larry Brown refused at the beginning. He wanted to die with Milicic, thinking that this rookie should guard the drinking fountains for four years under his own hands. There is no reason to go to other teams to focus on training.
As a result, the Pistons' boss was angry and called Brown himself and asked him a serious and not elegant question. "Are you SB?"
This question is really difficult to answer. In order to prove that he is not an SB, Brown had to agree to let go of Milicic, the strongest marginal man in the league that he would never cultivate.
Milicic almost burst into tears when he got the news. Only singing can express his inner excitement and admiration for the Blazers. I wanted to hold his hand tightly. My mother told me that I hope there will be more. When the sun came out, they laughed and it was dawn ... (You do n’t want to transfer, you want the whole family to get on the cable car.)
This is definitely bad news for other teams. Rashid is at least a poor version of Garnett. This "grassroots" Pistons lineup looks comparable to the "grassroots" Sun.
The Blazers sent Rashid away because they wanted to rebuild. Before that, they also sent Bunch Wells to the Magic for Pearson. As long as there is a newcomer they can cultivate, they are willing to trade, Rashid has no potential to tap, and Portland fans no longer like him.
Fans have discovered the truth that Rashid is a soft egg. He got the nickname of "Roaring Heavenly Venerable" by relying on howling towards the referee and never fighting with anyone. His character is also problematic. He has the property of a tumor in the locker room. He once threw a towel on the face of veteran Sabonis in public.
Of course, the advantages of Rashid are also obvious. The style of the game is selfless, and the defense is stronger than the offense. This type of player is easy to underestimate only by looking at the data.
He struggled with rebounds and had a career high of 8.2 twice. The rest were around 7 rebounds. The 1999-00 peak reached the Western Conference finals, averaging 6 rebounds in 16 playoff games. His offense relied on shooting, which was very unstable. In the last few minutes of the Western Conference finals, the buddy lost 5 goals himself and was turned over by the Lakers.
Guo Xu felt that this was not historical inertia, but a certain necessity, not that he could change the butterfly effect. Because the Pistons management has long been interested in Rashid, knowing that his style of play is suitable for the team system, he will be traded in every way.
Without strengthening the No. 4 position, the Pistons can only achieve a record of about 50 wins this season. It is difficult to win the Nets or the Pacers in the second round of the playoffs. After the transaction, the Pistons' card lineup was significantly stronger than the other two Eastern teams, and the chances of reaching the finals skyrocketed.
The idea of ​​the Pistons boss is that no one can lose to the Pacers. Since the coach Rick Carlisle thanked the Pistons and joined the Pacers with a smile at the press conference ~ EbookFREE.me ~ The two teams have become enemies.
Sun manager Brian Colangelo asked Guo Xu if he needed a mid-term deal. The Suns currently have only 14 players and there is still an empty space. Guo Xu said no. This lineup is enough for the championship.
There is no shortage of people in all positions of the Sun, and there is already a tacit understanding. Even if a potential newcomer is not cultivated in the transaction, he can only be decentralized to the development alliance like James Jones.
There is a reborn Guo Xu, and the Suns are not worried about finding new recruits. At the 2004 NBA Draft, they had a first-round pick and two second-round picks. Even if the picks were relatively low, it was a breeze to pick out a few potential treasures.
The Suns can also sign in the free market. Newcomers should not be too many. What the team needs to win the championship is excellent instant combat power. Based on the performance of the Suns this season, there should be many people who are willing to join in the salary cuts to hug Guo Xu's thighs in the summer.
Manager Brian obeyed Guo Xuyan's advice. Guo Xu said he had confidence in winning the championship. He believed that there must be.
He can be successful in the entertainment industry, not to mention his best basketball?
