I’m Really Playing Basketball

In fact, before the start of the draft, Boss Joe had already made plans for whom to trade.

When Chen Xiao, Roy, Rose, Aldridge, Granger, Barnes and Battier couldn't move, they could only choose from the remaining eight.

Lowry, Daniel Gibson, Big Lopez, Little Lopez, DeAndre Jordan, Roy Hibbert, Livingston, Ilyasova.

With the Bobcats drafting Curry this year, Daniel Gibson, who has a similar style to Curry, is very embarrassed in the Bobcats position.

Similarly, with Kidd, Lowry and Livingston's position in the Bobcats is very embarrassing.

Therefore, Jordan's plan before the draft is that if Curry is not available, then the team's three backup point guards, Gibson, Lowry and Livingston, will keep Gibson.

And if the draft gets a small Curry, all three of them can be traded.

Chen Xiao also supports Jordan's plan.

Although Lowry will become an All-Star in the future among the three, Lowry has not actually grown up yet, and Chen Xiao has not put too much energy on him. Even if Chen Xiao has so many The experience card for teaching, not everyone can invest a lot, there are also key people.

The focus of Chen Xiao's training for the Bobcats is of course Rose, Roy, Granger, and Aldridge. Lowry has not even had as many opportunities for Chen Xiao to train as Gibson.

So, at least, from the current situation, Lowry's strength has not yet completed the transformation, the strength is outstanding, but the strength is limited.

Therefore, these three point guards, apart from Gibson, are actually nothing to be pity, at least for the Bobcats.

And Gibson, although it is a pity that he left in the trade, he has already played in the Bobcats, and he has also performed very well in the playoffs in the past two years. He is a very good three-point shooter, but there is no way, Curry is here. .

In order to cultivate and grow up space for Curry, Gibson has no way to stay. The two will definitely choose between the two.

Obviously, in the eyes of Chen Xiao and Jordan, Xiao Culi, Chen Xiao's apprentice, must be more promising.

Of the five trades, the three backup point guards account for three.

The remaining two places will be selected from others.

Especially with the arrival of O'Neal, the Bobcats must have more young centers.

Of these four young centers, leaving two is enough.

Although Lopez can't start, he plays a very important role in the bench lineup. He shoots well and can protect the frame. He is a very good rotation center and can provide the Bobcats with the vitality of the bench. This is definitely to stay. of.

And Lopez Jr., Roy Hibbert and DeAndre Jordan, the roles of the three overlap.

However, in the end, Jordan’s choice was to keep Roy Hibbert, because Roy Hibbert is the only big center among the three people, 2.18 meters, this height matches his athletic ability and his hand does not count. Color, but some CIC is still very attractive.

Hibbert is indeed a little tender now, but his future should be the most useful to the Bobcats.

Therefore, it may seem difficult to choose five from eight people, but in fact it is not difficult to choose.

Moreover, boss Joe can even select 6 from these eight people to trade, because of Butler’s unexpected arrival, boss Joe feels that Ilyasova’s staying with the Bobcats has no meaning.

Ilyasova’s position in the Bobcats is actually quite embarrassing. To say that he is instant combat power, he does have instant combat power, but he can’t reuse it at critical moments, because playing the fourth position is too thin and playing the third position. The defense is not good enough, it is not fast enough, and the technique is not good enough.

Now his position in the Bobcats is an unstable large pitcher, and the team's future reserves.

In his position, Ilyasova cannot replace Granger, Battier or Barnes.

But now that the team has two future reserves DeRozan and Butler in this position, then his position in the team's future reserves is gone.

It can be said that with Chen Xiao getting Butler to the Bobcats, Ilyasova completely lost his position in the Bobcats.

So for the flexibility of the Bobcats lineup, Jordan did not intend to trade the team's five players, but six players.

In this way, the Bobcats still have a flexible quota with O'Neill, Kidd and Curry, DeRozan and Butler.

Why should we reserve this flexible quota?

Because there are indeed a lot of big fish in the free market this year.

What if some big fish like to come to the Bobcats?

Once the list of transactions is determined, the transaction becomes much easier, that is, the bargaining is a little more tiring.

In fact, for the six Bobcats to be traded, apart from Livingston who is a little uninterested, the other five players actually have a lot of trade value.

Among them, Gibson is a player that the Bobcats have focused on training in the past two seasons. He is very accurate in three-point shooting. Both seasons have passed 40%. This is a player whose value has reached the lottery and is also the most valuable of these six players. One of the players.

If it is not for the identity and height of his defender, his transaction value is higher than that of DeAndre Jordan and Jr. Lopez.

After the Bobcats threw Gibson into the trading market, the Houston Mosaic team immediately expressed interest in Gibson, because Gibson is a native of Houston and went to the University of Texas with Aldridge.

However, for Bynum, Houston Mosaic almost emptied its own bargaining chips. Mosaic traded to the Bobcats for the first-round picks in 2015. However, for Gibson, Houston Mosaic still gave out his 2017. First round pick.

The NBA can trade up to the next 7 years of draft picks. If it hadn't been drafted in the 2009 draft, Mosaic would really not be able to give his 2017 first-round pick to the Bobcats.

How about the mosaic after 2017. Houston actually doesn’t know it, but they do need to gamble. Now the team boss Jie Williams is 28 years old, 7 years later he will be only 35 years old, and the team’s future pillar center Bynum is He is 22 years old and 29 years later in 7 years. The Gibson that the team got this time is 23 years old, and 7 years later, he is 30 years old. If Gibson and Bynum can grow up harmlessly, even if they are both. Growth is not great enough, and Houston's draft pick seven years later is not much or how valuable.

Of course, if Bynum and Gibson fell halfway, it would definitely be a loss.

However, trading future picks is inherently gamble.

Without gambling, Jordan and the Bobcats would not send a lottery-worthy guard to Mosaic.

The Bobcats don't seem to be optimistic about Bynum's growth.

And Mosaic, of course, they are optimistic, although Super Giant doesn't want to do anything, but an All-Star center should be no problem, right?

In the West, it is difficult to have a team led by an All-Star center.

Therefore, this Gibson transaction is a hedge.

After Gibson, Lowry, one of the two players with the least value in this transaction, returned to Memphis.

Lowry is strong now, but because there are no performance opportunities in the Bobcats, the transaction value is not high, let alone changing the lottery, changing the first round, it is not so easy.

In this situation, the boss of Ji took the initiative to find Chen Xiao and Jordan, hoping that he could leave the Grizzlies with a little dignity and leave something for the Grizzlies.

Chen Xiao and Jordan both understand the idea of ​​boss Ji, boss Ji still wants the Grizzlies to retire his jersey.

Therefore, things can't be so ugly.

Regardless of whether you say that the Ji boss is a ‘quiet group’ behavior or what kind of behavior, for a legendary veteran who has already considered retirement matters, this is indeed something he needs to consider.

Therefore, Chen Xiao and Jordan will certainly not refuse such a request from the boss. Lowry can change to an ordinary first round at most, and it is worthwhile to use this ordinary first round to give the boss some dignity and face.

Doesn’t Kee’s boss also retaliate and want to sign a 1+1 minimum salary to match Lowry’s contract?

After the base boss, the third deal that was finalized was the Ilyasova deal.

Like Lowry, Ilyasova has some strengths, but the performance opportunities are limited and the transaction value is not that high, but Jerry Sloan of the Jazz has taken a fancy to him.

With Kirilenko’s age problem, Jeremy Sloan is in dire need of a reliable small forward. He is not at ease with Earl Clarke in the draft. Ilyasova looks like an AK47 in addition to not being hard enough.

Since the Jazz is going to assist his son, of course the boss will not refuse.

The Jazz have already used the 2010 first-round pick for the Bobcats' 2009 No. 25 first-round draft pick, so the trade for Ilyasova is the 2012 first-round lottery protection.

After Ilyasova, the deal between DeAndre Jordan and Jr. Lopez was finalized almost at the same time.

In fact, the two Bobcats are unwilling to trade if they can.

Especially Lopez Jr., who has a very high pick in the draft, is in the early stage of the lottery.

Although DeAndre Jordan's draft picks are not so high, they still have potential.

Two young centers with potential, they just traded if they didn't play out. This is a big loss.

The two don't have much trade value and are likely to lose the draft pick.

But what embarrassed the Bobcats was that O'Neal came, and the two did not have any chance to perform. It was impossible to play the value of the transaction. In the end, they dragged it. If there is no playing time, the two may be delayed, even this. No point cost can be collected.

Fortunately, Boss Joe took advantage of the poor information, but did not lose the two of them, especially Lopez.

DeAndre Jordan was traded to the Clippers Cannon. There is nothing to say. The Clippers were traded with the 2010 first-round picks. DeAndre Jordan’s draft picks were almost the same, so no Loss is not profitable.

And little Lopez was traded to the Suns, and Joe Boss definitely made a profit.

Because O'Neal has parted ways with the Suns, the Suns need a young and potential center, and they just fell in love with Lopez Jr.

Regarding this, Jordan pretended not to know that O'Neal left the sun. The Sun did not say, he pretended not to know, anyway, the bargaining chip was tightly pinched.

I chose the lottery, and you must return the lottery to me.

The 2010 draft is definitely not good. Who doesn't know that O'Neal Suns can't make the playoffs.

The Suns came up with the first round of 2010, in fact, they are sincere. They don't want to make a clear lottery. They want to bet on a wave. If it is the lottery in 2010, then everyone will trade and no one will lose.

But if the Suns make the playoffs in 2010, the Suns will earn it.

This thought, for Jordan, who knows that O'Neal is going to leave, of course he will not agree. Don't worry about the first round of 2010, I want the future lottery.

For Jordan's determination, the Suns can't say that O'Neal is going to leave, so the first round of 2010 is similar to the lottery, right?

I really have to say that, maybe Jordan will sit down and raise the price.

So, in the end, the sun also gritted his teeth and agreed to this clear bargaining chip from Boss Joe.

It is even a disadvantage for the Suns not to pick up the cheap price, and the management of the Suns has always been very depressed.

At this point, the 6 Bobcats need to be traded players have traded 5, and Livingston, the least trade value, is no one wants.

No one really wants it.

Fortunately, Livingston's contract is a basic salary, and half of it is not guaranteed, so if the Bobcats find the free agents they need, they can lay off Livingston at any time and vacate the spot.

So, although only 5 trades have gone, the Bobcats still have completed their mission.

Therefore, after the opening of the free market on July 1, Boss Joe announced the signing of the three rookies Curry, DeRozan, and Butler as soon as possible.

At the same time, Kee's boss was also traded from the Grizzlies to the Bobcats.

For a time, the Bobcats, who became the craziest team in the NBA after the free market was opened, became the team that attracted everyone's attention.

Five players were traded away in this one, and at the same time the legendary veteran Kidd was attracted. Once the market opened, the action was so big, can it not be eye-catching?

Although the five young people are not big names, but the old ones are big names.

And just as all the NBA fans and experts were looking at the Bobcats' crazy operations this summer, O'Neal announced that he had completed the agreement with the Suns to terminate the contract, which was like a bomb that blew the entire league.

O'Neal is now 37 years old and very old. However, his status and prestige in the NBA over the years has made him still one of the focus of the NBA. Last year, he and Kobe were the protagonists of the All-Stars. To the AMVP.

So, when O'Neal and the Suns terminated their contract, everyone was wondering if he was going back to the Lakers.

This is easy to understand. He and Kobe reconciled last year, and he will return to the Lakers this year. It’s just right. Last year’s reconciliation can be used as a pavement.

Only soon, everyone was stunned by O'Neill's decision.

"It was a difficult decision. It was really difficult. The decision to join the team where Wonder Boys belonged was the hardest day of my life."

O'Neal did not return to the Lakers, but went to the Bobcats and joined Chen Xiao's team!

For a while, all the expected Lakers fans were angry.

You know, the Lakers lost to Chen Xiao's team in the last two finals!

And O'Neal, one of the icons of the Lakers, actually went to Chen Xiao to vote against him!

Even the fans of F7 Malone and the fans of the Suns joined in this scolding battle against O'Neal.

After being hacked by Chen Xiao, Centaur retired directly, and you actually want to join Chen Xiao.

The Suns reached the finals four years ago, and the losing opponent was also Chen Xiao.

As the leader of the Suns this past year, you actually joined the team that prevented the Suns from winning the championship!

"I support Shaq when he leaves the Suns. How can he return to Los Angeles? No, he goes to any team that is not Wonder Boy. I support him. However, he has become a teammate of Wonder Boy. He said he loves Phoenix. Woolen cloth?!"

The Suns fans are even more angry than the Lakers fans.

In the face of the anger of Lakers fans and Malone fans, O'Fang actually tolerated it, and he did take a toll on these two groups.

But your mere sun is qualified to spray me?

Can you make the finals without me?

"Shaq doesn't like that team (the Suns). UU Read www.uukanshu.com or never want to play for the Suns. The Suns have a poor lineup and he is the only one who can lead everything in the entire team. Once Shaq is taken away They are just a group of loose sand. Shaq and these cats and dogs cannot win the championship. Shaq takes this group of cats and dogs to the finals. What you need is gratitude, not anger against Shaq."

When O'Neal was chatting with the Suns fans on Twitter, he forgot to switch and directly annoyed the Suns fans with his large size. After this statement was sent out, the entire network and the entire NBA were in an uproar.

Even Chen Xiao, who took Xiao Du and the others to play streetball, was stunned.

Does this fat guy know how to play like this?

Even Xiao Du, who has always liked playing with netizens, was stunned.

"Xiao Du, are you so brave?"

Xiao Du, who was asked by Chen Xiao, shook his head frantically.

No, I definitely can't do such a brave thing.

This is simply social death!
