: Three hundred and sixty-nine: Great increase in strength

In mid-July, when two-time regular season MVP winner Steve Nash announced that he had joined the Lakers, the outside world knew that this would not be the Lakers' last operation.
Sure enough, in early August, the deal that the whole world had been waiting for finally arrived. The league passed this complex four-way transaction and Dwight Howard officially joined the Los Angeles Lakers.
The new Lakers "F4" composed of Kobe, Gasol, Nash and Howard was officially established. This is another remedy taken by the Lakers after the league vetoed Paul's deal to join the Lakers last season.
For a moment, the outside world was discussing who the Heat and the Lakers would win the championship. Some people even said, "A new Lakers dynasty is about to open!"
Although it was a four-way transaction involving four teams and multiple players, the Los Angeles Lakers became the only focus.
The Grizzlies, 76ers and Magic seem to have become foils. Iguodala joins the Grizzlies? Most people don't feel much about this deal. After all, Iguodala has always been very low-key. The Grizzlies, even though they reached the Western Conference Finals for two consecutive years, their popularity is still not on par with the Los Angeles Lakers.
But in Memphis, the news of Iguodala joining the Grizzlies exploded.
"Rudy Gay is replaced by Iguodala!? God, this is a fairy operation!"
"Iguodala will not fight for the right to shoot with Link, will not make waves, but he can stand up at the critical moment, and he can also form an indestructible flank defense with Link. I really can't think of anyone else than Yi Godala is more suitable for Link!"
"Indeed, Iguodala has never been considered a top star in the league. But there is no doubt that his strength is very strong. Next season, the Grizzlies have a very strong lineup. Conley, Iguodala, Link and The black and white bears, on the bench, there are Vasques, Nick Young, Tony Allen, Battier, Speights, etc...I believe that next season's Grizzlies will make the entire league Surprised!"
"Now, most teams are stacking up superstars without a brain, and the Lakers have made a Big Four combination. Did the Los Angelesers forget how badly they lost the Big Four last time? In my opinion, one The team does not need to pile up stars, but need to pile up suitable players. Next season, the Grizzlies will have many such players, and I'm sure they will not disappoint!"
The Memphis media are enthusiastic about the fact that Iguodala's joining is great news for them.
After all, Memphis rarely trades stars. Looking at the current lineup of the Grizzlies, Conley chose it himself, Gasol was just an addition when he was traded, Tony Allen was far from a superstar, and Link was just a layoff signed by the Grizzlies. Second round show...
So, being able to get Iguodala by trade is really very special for the Grizzlies.
At the beginning, when Robert Perla did not renew his contract with Lionel Hollins, the new boss encountered double shelling from fans and the media.
But after the deal came to Iguodala, it really turned his reputation in Memphis.
Gay is good, he was once a core player of the Grizzlies. But without him for two consecutive seasons, the Grizzlies have reached the Western Conference Finals, which is enough to illustrate Gay's embarrassing position in the Grizzlies. So, using Gay to change a star that is more suitable for the current system, Memphis fans are willing to give this deal an A+ rating.
The outside world is indifferent to the Grizzlies trade, but Memphis is extremely enthusiastic. And what about Iguodala himself? He is caught between these two emotions.
Playing in the 76ers for 8 full years, if you say there is no feeling at all, it must be false. But to be honest, Iguodala also really hopes to start somewhere else.
The 76ers always use him as a scorer, and the team's operations in recent years have also been difficult to understand. Therefore, Iguodala is not repulsive to play in another place.
But compared to Memphis, Iguodala prefers to go to big cities, such as the Bay Area.
This is not because Iguodala desires the exposure of big cities, he is never a player who cares about exposure. The reason why Iguodala wants to go to a big city is because the big city is more helpful to his business development.
As a result, he is now going to Memphis, where the economic downturn is severe.
Memphis can't satisfy Iguodala's ambitions in business, but Iguodala is looking forward to cooperating with Link.
In Memphis, no one will force him to be a scorer, but he needs his defensive and organizational skills more. Moreover, the Grizzlies are also a very team. The rise of the Grizzlies in the last two seasons is simply inspirational. Joining such a group, from a basketball perspective, is also excellent.
Therefore, facing the news that he was traded to Memphis, Iguodala was unexpectedly calm. Neither excited nor depressed.
Anyway, next summer, his contract will expire. At that time, he has the right to choose again.
How about playing in Memphis? Next season, give it a try.
Iguodala just finished feeling, he received a text message from Link.
"Are you ready to decorate the Federal Express Arena with the championship pennants?"
A simple text message is full of power.
Iguodala smiled, maybe the next stop of his career will be unexpectedly interesting?
