Chapter 604 Party and transaction deadline

On February 18, 2010 local time, the Celtics were faced at the Staples Center.

Under Li Tian's food temptation, the Lakers fought bravely and defeated the Celtics with difficulty.

In this game, Phil also made targeted changes and did not let Sun Yue start. His ability is still much worse for players like Ray Allen.

Finally, he won the game with a difficult 87:95.

In this game, Li Tian scored only 28 points, 10 rebounds and 12 assists, and a 30-plus triple-double ended. Fortunately, the triple-double did not end and he continued to maintain the triple-double data.

Every time I fight with the Celtics, it is full of gunpowder. The Celtics players are also scolded in Los Angeles.

Rondo thought that the Lakers who lost Kobe became a weak man. What they did not expect was that Li Tian could also defeat the Celtics by the team alone.

*******

"Guys, drink as much as you like!" As the owner of the party, he said the first sentence without being too long-winded, just to let everyone eat, drink and have fun, but they must not mess around. He does not want negative reports from the newspaper tomorrow.

Teammates have started to enjoy the food mode.

Everyone drinks happily, and of course, the topics they talk about are always inseparable from - beauties are always the topics of these energetic NBA players.

In addition to the players of the entire Lakers, only a few of them are married, so.

"Kobe, will our team have any deals this season?" He has been busy with the All-Stars and has not paid attention to the team's trading situation. At this time, he does not want to participate in the Lakers management's trading, as this will restrain his more energy.

"Trading, this season, the team is very stable. If you don't consider trading, you will be in the playoffs soon. The trading will be too harmful to the team."

Kobe shook his head and said that the team will not trade now.

They talked about some of the things they had with Gasol and the three of them.

"Li, you really don't want to stay with the Lakers next season?" Gasol still broke the tranquility.

Gasol knew that his ability was really not so suitable to be the boss of a team. He hoped to stay with Li Tian, ​​Kobe, and the three of them until the end of his career.

Of course, he also knew that with the salary level of three, the Lakers could still bear it. If it didn't work, he wouldn't mind a little salary cut, and that wouldn't be impossible.

"Paul, let's talk about this matter until the end of the season. What I pay most attention to at the moment is to achieve the great cause of the dynasty."

He is not willing to talk about this topic now, because he can't tell them now that I want to get more money, and the league will definitely stop me from staying in the Lakers.

In the future, the league will introduce new rules and have this confidence in himself. At the end of this season, the league will definitely introduce new rules in the future.

The chat on this topic ended in vain. Kobe looked at Li Tian, ​​and Li Tian also looked at Kobe. The two were the same people and knew each other.

"Li, I understand you!" Kobe whispered after the party ended.

Looking at Kobe and Gasol's backs leaving, they both understood each other.

I saw everyone away and didn't think about this issue anymore, because he was ready to think about it in the offseason.

*******

From the All-Star Game, the Mavericks' deal opened the first trade on the trade deadline.

The Dallas Mavericks and Washington Wizards finally reached an agreement, and the two sides made a big deal involving 7 players. The protagonists of the deal were Caron Butler and Josh Howard. The conclusion of this deal means that the mosaic who wanted to make a big deal before had to change the trading method, and the "mosaic lover" Butler completely missed Houston.

In the two-team trade, the Mavericks also got center Brandon Heywood and defender Desham Stevenson; they sent Drew Gooden, Quinton Ross, and James Hinlerton to the Wizards. Such a deal improves the Mavericks' frontcourt strength, and for the Wizards who have entered the "post-Alinas era", their reconstruction has greater flexibility in capacity.

Two days later, the Los Angeles Clippers have reached an agreement with the Portland Trail Blazers, and the Clippers will send Camby to Portland for Ultra Row and Blake.

Kabi's age and ability cannot match his salary of 9.65 million. Even if Griffin is reimbursed for the season, they hope to clear out the contract. In terms of the Trail Blazers, although they have many talented players, they have suffered repeated injuries after the start of this season. Oden and Puzzibila and other players have been reimbursed for injury seasons. This is also the reason why they are eager to introduce a big insider before the trade deadline, and Kabi is a very suitable candidate for them.

On the day when the Lakers face the Celtics, the Cleveland Cavaliers and Washington Wizards and the Los Angeles Clippers have reached an agreement on a three-party six-man deal. Through this deal, the Cavaliers will get Antoine Jamison and defender Sebastian Terfee, the Clippers will get Drew Gooden, and the Wizards will get a future first-round draft pick from Ilgoskas, Al Thorton, Brian Skinner and the Cavaliers. It is also said that the Clippers will buy out Gooden, and he will become a free agent again.

"Lee, the Cavaliers, seem to be getting stronger again." Kobe saw the deal.

The Cavaliers have always been one of the imaginary opponents of the Lakers in the Finals. O'Neal's joining gave the Cavaliers an overwhelming advantage in the inside. Originally, the Cavaliers wanted to get Stodmeier and Jamison through a trade, but of course the team wanted to get Stodmeier. Although the Cavaliers have been actively negotiating with the Suns, they still cannot get a definite answer from the other side. Therefore, the negotiations between the Cavaliers and the Suns were stranded, and they finally set their target on Jamison and got him.

"So what, don't forget the magic and the Celtics!"

One word reminds Kobe that the Cavaliers are strong, but the Eastern Conference team is also stronger.

The most crazy deal is the Knicks. Their purpose is very clear, which is to have enough salary next season to attract some All-Star players. For example, Li Tian, ​​James and Wade, a group of All-Star players, get any one of them, which can become the cornerstone of the team's team building in the next ten years.

The Minnesota Timberwolves have reached a deal with the New York Knicks, with veteran forward Cardinal moving into the Big Apple City, and Milicic, the second-tier pick in 2003, will become a member of the Timberwolves.

The purpose of the Knicks' deal is to reduce salary pressure. Since the salary of the two players in the big deal is a small difference, but the difference is within the league's allowable range, this deal will reduce the total salary of the Knicks by about 1.5 million, because their salary has long exceeded the luxury tax collection line, and this big deal will save the Knicks a total of 3 million yuan.

Subsequently, the Knicks and the Celtics decided a deal, with three-time dunk king Nate Robinson and Marcus Landry being sent to the Celtics, while the Knicks received Eddie House, Bill Walker and J.R Giddens.

Bobcats, Kings, Bucks and Digital Man, also made some small deals.

Only the Cavaliers made big deals for several teams with championship competition.

Just as the Lakers Big Three were discussing the league's deal, a deal that shocked the league happened quietly.

"My God, this deal has really been achieved." Sun Yue exclaimed, breaking the atmosphere where the team was training.

"What deal?" Odom's goal is very clear. If you can shoot 59 seconds, you will definitely not shoot for a minute!

"Mosaic, the Kings and the Knicks, three teams have officially announced a deal that shocked the league." Sun Yue explained.

Everyone gathered around and asked about the details of the transaction.

The deal was officially concluded at the last moment of the transaction deadline.

The specific situation of the deal is: the mosaics sent out McGrady, Landry and Dorsey, and obtained Martin and Armstrong from the Kings, Jeffries and Jordan Hill from the Knicks, and obtained the Knicks' first-round pick in 2012 and the first-round pick in 2011 (that is, when the Knicks' draft pick is before the mosaic, the mosaic can be exchanged).

As expected in the first place, Mosaic sent off McGrady and welcomed another Martin who they believed was stronger in scoring than McGrady.

The Kings sent out Martin, Armstrong and Rodriguez, Landry and Dorsey of the Mosaics and Larry Hughes of the Knicks.

The Knicks sent Hughes, Hill and Jeffreys and related draft picks, and got McGrady and the Kings' Rodriguez.

The deal was reached, and the Knicks would free up huge salary space again next season. McGrady's contract ended next season so that they could free up tens of millions of salary space.

"The Knicks are really crazy!" Gasol couldn't help but sigh.

Seeing the Knicks' crazy transactions did not improve their strength, the huge salary space became even more terrifying.

After the Knicks completed all the transactions, the total salary this season reached more than 85 million, which far exceeded the luxury tax. Of course, the Knicks didn't care about all this.

Next season, McGrady, Al Harrington, and Cartino Mobley, three players will be given a 43 million salary space after the contract ends next season.

Similarly, two other high-paying players, Eddie Curry has only one year left for a contract, and another David Lee, who has more than ten million contracts, has become an All-Star substitute, and it is very easy to send it away through a deal.

Brian Cardinal and Chris Du Hong also end their contracts next season and can save 12 million in salary. The remaining players are all basic-paid players, which can be solved at any time, and the Knicks are not short of money.

This is also why later generations of Knicks were able to sign Sir S with a high salary in 2010, and at the same time, they got Anthony through trades to form a lineup of the two giants. Unfortunately, after getting the two, the Knicks suffered injuries one after another and ended in failure.

Of course, their first goal in the offseason is James. If the team gets James, they are confident that they can complete the reconstruction work instantly, while waving a large amount of money to attract new players that James needs.

"It's so cruel. There must be the Knicks who stirred up the offseason." After Phil saw the deal reaching, he couldn't help but sigh.

Shaking his head, Phil no longer considered this issue, because it would have to wait until the offseason.
Chapter completed!
