Prior to that four-way trade, if the Wizards could get Kidd to form the Big Three, they would be as competitive as the Celtics.

But unfortunately, similar to the Lakers' situation, the Wizards don't have much leverage to get their hands on.

The only valuable Hamilton is that the Nets are completely uninterested.

So despite ruining the Bulls' three-way deal, they still couldn't get Kidd back as they wished.

But the reinforcement must be strengthened, otherwise with the current lineup, it is obviously inferior to compete with the Celtics.

And you may not believe it, but among the Wizards' trade partners this time, there are Bulls!

Some people may say that the Bulls that the Wizards just killed are without Kobe, will the Bulls be willing?

In fact, NBA teams are all interested in each other.

Even sworn enemies like the Celtics and Lakers have traded in history, let alone other teams.

To make an inappropriate analogy, this is the same as a small couple, noisy and noisy, a big deal, can you still leave?

And this deal happened again, and it has something to do with the previous Pacers fire sale.

As a result, a three-way deal is about to come out.

The Wizards sent Hamilton and a future second-round pick to Ron Artest;

The Bulls sent Danny Granger and P.J. Brown to get Hamilton and a second-round pick from the Wizards;

The Pacers sent Artest to Danny Granger and PJ Brown;

The deal is a take-for-all for all three parties:

For the Wizards, their perimeter defense has always been a big problem, Nelson and Hamilton have limited defensive ability, and many times they can only rely on Maddy to block the eye, and getting Artest as a defensive gate is considered once and for all.

The risk for them is whether the "notorious" Artest will be able to play well next to Yao Mai.

As long as Yao Mai can bring down Artest, then this deal is a reinforcement for the Wizards.

You must know that in addition to defense, Artess is also a master who can 20+ on the offensive end, and at the age of 27, he is more than enough to be a three-man master;

For the Bulls, not being able to get Kobe Bryant is a shame, but it's not necessarily a bad thing.

Their current roster has shown to be competitive, and they went toe-to-toe with the Lakers at the start of the season.

The problem is just that the team is too young and lacks enough consistency in performance.

Granger's replacement for Hamilton is an instant upgrade for the team.

And it will also give the team more room to operate in the future.

You must know that Granger entered the league with Paul, and when the time comes, the contract will be renewed by the two together.

The Bulls already have two big contracts, Chandler and Yi Jianlian, and it is unlikely that they will be renewed at the same time.

So in exchange for Hamilton, who is more combative and has a cost-effective contract, Klaus's operation can be regarded as a textbook.

Well, many new 2K players can't play Dynasty for a few years and can't play it, did they discover the truth in an instant?

As for the Wizards' second-round round with almost no trade value, it should be the same breath as before;

For the Pacers, it's also perfectly in line with their rebuilding plan.

They must know the benefits of Artest, but the impact of the brawl was too great.

Whether it's for the Pacers or Artest himself, splitting is a better option;

Not long after the three-point deal broke, it was quickly announced by the league.

And then a source broke that the Pacers are expected to buy out the elder P.J. Brown.

The Celtics are interested in it and are expected to cut Van Horn and sign Brown.

Wave after wave of unsettled, the news here has not been broken, and there is also news in the west.

The Nuggets and Celtics also made a deal.

The Nuggets sent the team's sixth man, Boygins, to Delonte West from the Celtics.

It's also a take-it-or-take-it-and-

Let's start with the Celtics.

The Celtics did this for two purposes.

The main thing is to help Rondo.

Although Rondo is still a rookie, he has already shown an unmatched fit with the Big Three in a limited number of games.

For the Celtics, who don't have much time to run-in, the sooner they help Rondo, the better it will be for the team.

Secondly, it is to fancy Boykins' scoring ability.

Despite his short stature, Boykins is a great scorer, scoring nearly 15 points off the bench this season.

This is a good addition for the Celtics, who have lacked scoring from the bench in the backcourt.

Let's talk about the Nuggets.

The Nuggets were also "victims" of the previous four-way trade.

Like the Bulls, they started to activate alternate option B after Option A failed.

Smith's inconsistent nature makes it impossible for him to play in the starting lineup.

On the contrary, if he is put on the bench, it is more beneficial for him to have the ball.

West is a typical 3-and-D perimeter, with three-point points and defense without possession, which is perfect for Iverson and James.

And the Nuggets' reinforcement is obviously not over yet, and strengthening the interior to counter old rivals such as the Lakers and Spurs is still their goal before the trade deadline.

All-Star starts, while the trades go on and on.

This season is destined to be different.

However, you can also understand that this is a knock-on effect of the Kobe Bryant trade.

The dust has settled on Kobe's trade, and the teams that have been obtained and those who have not been obtained have successively started the reinforcement mode.

One might say, what are the Lakers doing at this time?

Well, what should I do, I have the same mentality as Sun Hao before, sitting and watching the play.

In fact, take a look at the Lakers' current lineup, the core is stable, the rotation strength is excellent, there are veterans and newcomers, and there is nothing missing.

If you can't change Artest's kind of player who can bring substantial improvement, then maintaining the current squad is the best option.

There will be no improvement in strength on paper, but unchanged means that there is no need to re-run-in, and the improvement of tacit understanding is also a kind of strength improvement.

With the successive trades, the first day of All-Star Weekend also ended.

The first day was a warm-up, with only two games, the Masters Game and the Rookie Game, and the venue was not at the home of the Mark Center.

But it was this day, but there was a big surprise for the fans.

In the Rookie Challenge, the most dazzling performance was Du ...... Ah it's not Durant, it's David Lee.

The college opponent who once made Yi Jianlian shout "he is at least a first-round interruption" in the draft scored 30 points and 11 rebounds on 14-of-14 shooting in this game.

Not only was he voted the MVP of the rookie game, but he also set a record for 100% shooting.

As for our little coach, he also played well in this game, scoring a game-high 32 points on 14-of-20 shooting.

However, the first-year team lost by a big score, and the MVP naturally missed him.

But what's interesting is that during the post-game interview, Durant looked serious, and he had the intention of making a comeback next year.

Thinking of Oden's candidacy next year, when the two people who couldn't run together because of the butterfly effect don't know what kind of sparks will be sparked as opponents in the rookie game.

The second day of All-Star Weekend was more interesting than the first.

Although Sun Hao did not fight the slam dunk contest again as Barkley expected, he will still attend the shooting star.

When he competed for the first time two years ago, he made a bold statement that he would be like O'Neal said, not 2 or 3, but 4, 5, 6 or even more champions in this event.

Now that he's done two in a row in this event, one more is the dynasty!

He will definitely not miss such an opportunity.

Of course, there is one more interesting thing about this day.

Before the All-Star break, a little earlier than that four-way trade, there was still a hot topic in the league.

Ross Barkley and "Whistle" Bavita's 100m race!

The loser will donate $5,000 to charity.

Here we have to introduce Bavita.

This is a more famous referee than "Bald" Crawford.

And this name of his is completely positive and positive.

Counting some of the things he knows to the fans, he was accidentally hit by a player and underwent surgery, and he came back two days after receiving surgery, because of the wind and snow, the plane was grounded, and he drove himself and arrived on time against the wind and snow.

The result is that he is the NBA's longest-running referee to date!

In fact, he is the longest consecutive law enforcement in the four major sports leagues in the United States, with 2,663 consecutive games in 40 years!

What is this concept?

The player with the longest consecutive NBA appearance is "Iron Man" Green with 1,192 games.

Bavita is more than twice as many as him.

Although it is said that the risk of injury for players is much higher than that of referees, think about the fact that ordinary people often have "active colds" when they go to work.

The difficulty of this record can be imagined.

Moreover, the amount of exercise of NBA referees in a game is much more than that of ordinary people going to work.

Bavita, in particular, persevered until the age of 75.

This is definitely a generation legend.

So although Barkley kept saying before the race, he only stopped at "I can easily win the race with my back", "I can let him run 20 meters if necessary" and so on.

Let's talk about the game itself.

The highlight of this matchup is that Barkley completely refrained from eating after retiring for the second time, and his weight soared rapidly.

Although Bavita is 67 years old, in addition to officiating the competition, he also insists on running 8 kilometers every day.

So it's not as suspenseless as Barkley said.

Either way, the 44-year-old Barkley and the 67-year-old Bavita, athletes and referees, this is definitely another successful marketing.

Well, Sun Hao heard about this in his last life, but he hadn't seen the video.

Now that this is going to happen in front of him, he is still looking forward to it.

Before all the games started on this day, Sun Hao, who had already put on his game uniform and was preparing to defend the shooting star game, sat on the sidelines as a melon eater.

On the field, Barkley and Bavita were ready, and the spotlight flashed.

The scene is quite grand.

"Toot!"

As soon as the game began, O'Neill next to Sun Hao couldn't stop laughing.

Because of Barkley, he even ran away!

Not counting once, I robbed it twice!

"Shaq, next year's All-Star Game, you have a heads-up warm-up with him before the game and beat him up."

Sun Hao couldn't stand it anymore.

"Yes."

O'Neill nodded earnestly.

While the two were talking, the third match finally began.

Don't say it, Bavita's speed at the beginning is really not inferior to Barkley, who shook the fat one by one.

The length of the course is 28 meters, which is about 25 meters, and 100 meters is four round-trips.

The first two went back and forth, and the two were evenly matched.

There was also a commotion at the scene, they wanted to see Barkley be slapped in the face again like the previous "donkey ass incident".

However, Bavita is old after all, and by the third time, he has already begun to fall behind.

By the last turn, Barkley began to live up to his pre-match promises and began to run on his back.

But even so, Bavita, who has a weak follow-up, is still being kept distancing.

Seeing that Barkley is going to win the last ten meters.

It was at this time that the classic scene came.

Seeing that there was no hope of victory, Bavita made a direct "fish jump" and slipped forward and fell to the ground.

Barkley reacted quickly when he saw it, and a "flat sand and falling geese" took advantage of the situation and flipped to the bottom.

Just looking at this move, those who don't know think that martial arts masters are learning from each other!

But the actual scene is that the two of them rolled to the ground one after another, and the scene was quite funny.

The laughter at the scene could not be stopped.

This entertainment atmosphere is absolutely barren.

But the most classic thing is that the two of them got up and hugged in the center of the court, and then came to a kiss!

On social media, Titanic's Jack Rose hugging picture has already appeared.

Because Barkley's final flat sand and goose style was a better move, the line crossed the point, and in the end, it was Bavita who donated $5,000.

Barkley later announced a $50,000 donation.

This is also a master who has a perfect score for "emotional intelligence".

After the sprint race between Barkley and Bavita, the next day's race program officially began.

The first is also the shooting star that has attracted much attention.

The lineup sent by the Lakers has not changed from the past two years, and it is still Sun Hao, "Magic" Johnson and Tina Thompson.

In addition to the Lakers, the three teams participating this year are the Spurs, Suns and Raptors.

The Spurs' lineup is the weirdest of the four, with David Robinson, Tim Duncan and Becky Harmon.

There are two inside lines out of a total of three people, which at first glance seems to be a number.

The Suns are Nash, Dan Marley, and Diana Taurasi, the "Female Jordan."

The Suns were also the favourites to beat the Lakers before the game.

The last team, the Raptors, also had a good lineup, which was Bosh, Dale Curry and Sven Cash.

It is worth mentioning that because there is no WNBA team in Canada, this time the Raptors directly "loaned" Cash from the Detroit Shock.

Most people have a relatively limited understanding of WNBA players, and it is estimated that they are a few well-known players in China, such as Parker and Moore, as well as a well-known "female monster" Griner.

But this Kashsun Hao has an impression.

More precisely, it should be this combination of Boshkash, who was impressed by him because of the similar translation of the names.

These two people, plus Wilkins, the "essence of human movies", are the only dynastic team of shooting stars in history!

Because of the appearance of this team, the shooting star project lost suspense and was directly canceled!

Now Wilkins has been replaced by Curry Sr., and this strength continues unabated.

The strongest shooting star team in active service, and the strongest plus shooting star team in history.

This year's competition is epic!

Of course, the strength of the Raptors is estimated as long as Sun Hao knows.

Before the start of this game, a sentence from Barkley, who had returned to the commentary seat, was a good match for this game.

"Who can stop the Lakers from completing the dynasty?"

"No one!"

Good guy, this pun is the same, like the previous Adi, a mouthful of poisonous milk directly pasted his face!
