On August 29th, there was a trade in the league that shocked the basketball circle, and the Celtics sent the team soul away!

Previously, the Knicks pardoned Amare Stoudemire and lowered his salary to more than 56 million, but there is still a lot of room to go before signing and trading for Howard, even if the space is cleared through other trades, more than 11 million space is freed up.

The 76ers agreed to eat a contract of about 4-5 million, because the contract negotiated with Howard is 103 million for 5 years, and the 7-year veteran with a starting salary of 18.51 million US dollars is not the maximum salary of the designated veteran clause, the Knicks must clear out more than 7 million space, and the 76ers are willing to eat Kerr Aldridge's garbage contract of more than 4 million is also an expiring contract, which is still a little short.

When the Zen master had a headache, the Celtics reached out to "help".

After lengthy negotiations, the Knicks traded Andrew Bynum, a 2015 first-round pick without protection, and a 2016 first-round pick swap for Paul Pierce.

The Celtics ate Bynum's four-year, $82 million contract with the Knicks in the summer of 2012, with three years left and a salary of $19.89 million next season.

Pierce's 2010 contract extension of 4 years and 61 million, the new season is an expiring contract, 15.33 million US dollars salary, because the Celtics are relying on space to eat Bynum and Pierce's contract difference, the Knicks were able to expand the salary space to close to 16 million.

Then the Knicks gave away the 2017 first-round unprotected draft picks, the 2018 first-round pick swap rights, and Kerr Aldridge's expiring contract got Howard from the Philadelphia 76ers, signing first and then exchanging for 5 years and 1.03 billion.

The Knicks formed a combination of Dragic + Pierce + Howard, and once again had a competitive core lineup.

But until 2018, the Knicks didn't want to have a high draft pick, even if one accidentally finished first.

In the media's evaluation, the Knicks should be able to make the playoffs next season, that is, there are no lottery picks, then the 2015 and 2017 first-round picks are gone, and the 2016 and 2018 draft picks are swapped by other teams, and their Knicks must get the worse one and the swap team draft picks.

Sun Ce saw that the deal was reached and knew that it would be sooner or later, in order to get Howard, the Knicks also made a lot of money, paid 40 million US dollars for the amnesty of Stoudemire, and also sent Bynum, the 26-year-old lottery ticket, away, and there was a Zen master who pressed Bynum Although he was still a wave, he was not as proflaming as the 76ers, and it seemed that he could still play for a few years.

The center with an average of 15+9 per game in 20 million a year is okay in this era.

Still, the Celtics sent Pierce away...... This made Sun Ce feel that Anji was really ruthless!

Other people who trained together who saw the news also frantically complained about the Celtics, and the Internet exploded!

Subsequently, on September 3, the Celtics completely emptied the Big Three + Rondo.

The Celtics and the Nets made a deal, and the Celtics used Kevin Garnett's remaining two years of contract as a bargaining chip, and got Gerald Wallace from the Nets with three years left on his contract, and the Nets had the right to swap the 2017 first-round pick without protection and the 2018 draft pick.

Garnett and Gerard Wallace are on similar salaries, and no other players have joined the trade.

After the Celtics' two trades, their general manager Danny Ainge became the target of criticism from fans and the media.

This is even worse than James' near-naked signing of the Heat, James is a player and has the right to choose, but trading Pierce has made Danny Ainge boycotted by the top players.

The average All-Star may not be at a loss for money, and if the Celtics give other teams the highest salary they are not so willing to give, they won't say no.

But players who can get top salaries everywhere they go, such as Paul George and Klay Thompson, clearly feel that the Celtics are not a good place to go, especially after comparing them to Grizzlies management......

……

……

After Danny Ainge brought the final wave of this crazy summer, the free agency market gradually came to an end, and only a few role players in the corner were signed.

The media's attention was on the sale of the Clippers.

Since the Clippers really don't have too much value, without Paul, Griffin, and Jordan Jr., so far, buyers are waiting and watching.

Sun Ce originally thought that Microsoft boss Ballmer would buy it directly, and John's side would have no chance, but Ballmer didn't buy it, but hooked up with the Nets owner in New York.

Don't look at Nets owner Prokhorov has a lot of money, and the oil tycoon is not in a good situation at the moment due to sanctions on Russia.

But at this time, John was reluctant to try to make an offer, and Sun Ce didn't want to offer at this time, the Clippers were a mess, and it was better to wait for the league to solve the problems over there first, just like the original Hornets did, and clean up the garbage contract first.

For example, Boozer has two years left on his contract of 32 million, and no one wants to spend this unjust money.

The Clippers will likely be hosted by the league for a year or two, just like the Hornets.

Boozer played well last season, averaging 18 points and 9 rebounds per game, and was efficient.

But that's because of Rose and Sloan, and before Sloan joined the Bulls, Boozer had a downward trend as soon as he signed a big contract.

However, if it is a base salary or the middle class, there are many teams who want Boozer and are waiting for the league to pardon Boozer, who signed a five-year contract in 2010.

For example, on the Grizzlies' side, they kept the last position, and on the Lakers' side, they also left a power forward position.

According to Sun Ce's understanding from the team, the team is already in contact with the Stoudemire side, but is also waiting for the league to negotiate with Boozer, and there is no doubt that Boozer is a better choice.

But on the other hand, Stoudemire is also waiting for the price to be sold, and the Heat, Lakers, Celtics, and Knicks are all eyeing these two players who have been pardoned or may be pardoned.

……

……

With Danny Angie being scolded bloody, the turbulent free market finally cooled down, and the training of Sun Ce and others went smoothly during this period.

On September 15, the three-week training session will be over, and the players from the Lakers, Hornets, and Grizzlies will be separated.

During the training, Sun Ce improved, felt his shortcomings, and understood his strengths and weaknesses in the face of these partners who trained together.

The most important thing is progress!

In addition, knowing more about these players, Irving is proud to face his idol all day long but dare not really play, and Anthony Davis admires James.

What interests Sun Ce the most is Leonard, he and Leonard have not practiced against each other, and the other party is next to him to imitate Kobe's movements to learn, and occasionally Kobe will go to guide him.

"Isn't he an Iverson fan? How can the technique be similar to Kobe? ”
