The game between the Pelicans and the Cavaliers ended with a lot of buzz.

Tang Tian's 60+ triple-doubles made fans talk about it, and James's bold statement of giving up magnesium powder made fans look forward to this year's playoffs even more.

In the midst of the heated discussion, the time came to March 1, and the 2017 NBA buyout deadline was approaching.

There are a lot of potential buyouts this year that are very valuable, which has also made this year's buyout market much attention.

The Knicks didn't get a big fish in the summer, and they traded for Rose from the Bulls in change, but Rose and Anthony didn't play compatible, and their own status was also a problem.

Rose was later traded to the Wizards, and was basically dealt with by the Knicks as an expiring contract.

He is also outside the Wizards' plans, and it has been rumored that Rose will be bought out by the Wizards.

The Heat failed to retain Whiteside in the summer and failed to find a suitable replacement player in the free agency, and their overall strength declined severely.

This season has basically said goodbye to the playoffs, and there are rumors that Wade is considering buying out the team and going to a team with championship contention.

Superstars at the beginning of the century like Rose and Wade are no longer in form due to injuries, age and other problems, and the remaining last year of the contract is relatively large.

By agreeing a buyout with them, the team can reduce some of the expenses (the buyout amount is usually less than the contract amount), and it can also give the bought player the opportunity to go on to a playoff team for the rest of the season.

In addition to Ross Wade, there are other players who still have immediate action.

The Timberwolves are expected to buy out 2013's No. 14 pick Shabazz Muhammad;

The Jazz are expected to buy out veteran Boris Dior, who has gradually fallen out of the rotation;

The Lakers are expected to buy out veteran Deron Williams, who is not in the plan;

The Grizzlies are expected to buy out undrafted rookie Troy Williams.

……

These players, especially Wade and Rose, were avoided by the teams before they were bought out, but after the purchase, they became sweets.

You must know that before the buyout, they are all representatives of high salaries and low abilities, but after the buyout, they are generally signed at a very low price, or even a basic salary contract, and the cost performance comes out at once.

The Rockets are the most active team in the buyout market.

Morey saw the potential market early on the trade deadline and vacated the spot early, and now has two spots left in the 13-man squad.

There are many veterans among these buyouts, and for them, the championship team will definitely be the first choice.

The Rockets are just such a team, with the strength and the place, as long as they get Wade and Rose, even if it is just one of them, their strength will be further enhanced.

The Pelicans are also one of the teams targeting the buyout market.

When trading Williams, they sent Deron and Joe Harris, who now have just 14 players on the roster.

It's all enough, but it's prepared, and teams that don't compete for a championship won't make the playoffs at full capacity.

Before the deadline came, Demps also visited Tang Tian at the manor as usual.

While the 15th man doesn't matter, the trade market is over and this is the last chance to make up for it, and the 15th signing may be useful at this time.

"Ross and Wade, I think signing one of them will help us a lot, and we're more attractive than the Rockets."

Temple's thoughts are similar to Morey's, two former superstars, although their strength has declined, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse.

Tang Tian nodded.

The Pelicans' current guard line, Brogdon, Stephenson, and Williams are completely adequate, even redundant.

If it weren't for Brogdon's rookie, the Pelicans would even consider buying out Stephenson to cut back on expenses.

Signing another defender looks redundant and could ruin the chemistry.

But Wade is not the same as Rose, this veteran who still has gas in the tank is a supergiant and has a lot of playoff experience.

And it's important to consider that the playoffs will be more intense than in the past when the penalty scale changes.

At that time, none of the backup guards that the Pelicans now had could not necessarily score, and Rose and Wade were obviously more capable of attacking the individual offense.

Even if you take 10,000 steps back, signing it doesn't work, it's just a matter of a one-year contract.

So Tang Tian did not object to Demps's proposal.

"But we have to think about who we need to sign if neither of them is bought out."

When Tang Tian was the head coach in his life, he also served as the general manager for many years, and he considered it more carefully and comprehensively.

Ross and Wade are just rumored to be there a lot right now and won't necessarily be bought out.

Especially Wade, Riley left him to sell tickets, and now Wade wants to buy out, and he may not necessarily go with him.

Demps nodded, it did need to be prepared in advance.

Otherwise, they will miss the buyout market, and if they want to sign a 15th person, they will have to go to the current free market to sign someone.

At this point in time, the rest of the free market is not wanted, and the players who signed are really up to the number.

"What do you think of Boris Dior?"

Demps gave a suggestion.

Dio was a teammate with Tang Tian when he was a teammate in the Spurs, and the last time the Pelicans and Jazz played inseparably, Dio played well.

Tang Tian also agreed.

Christian Dior is now a swing player in the fourth or fifth position, especially in the fifth position.

Jokic has been unable to find form for a long time, and Dio, as a veteran, can give him some advice and also add playoff experience at the No. 5 position.

At 0:00 on March 1, the buyout deadline came as scheduled.

However, the buyout market is very different from the previous rumors and many people's predictions.

The Heat ultimately did not accept Wade's buyout request and continued to keep him with the team.

Riley's thoughts are the same as Tang Tian's guess, the team has missed the playoffs, and of course he has to keep Wade to sell more tickets.

The Wizards didn't buy Rose in the end.

Because Rose and Adidas signed a 14-year contract, for the sake of personal influence, the latter did not want to be bought out, so he did not compromise on the amount of the buyout.

This also led to the Wizards finally choosing to keep him on the team, after all, the team is also trying to save money to buy out, and it is better to save the ticket than to force the buyout.

Rose and Wade, the two players with the most rumors before the game, and the strongest players were not bought out in the end.

The one who hurt the most this time was the Rockets.

Morey strategized, and in the end, the bamboo basket was empty.

Just as Morey was about to turn his gun and take aim at the other buyouts.

Woj was quick to announce that the Pelicans quickly agreed to a one-year base salary contract with Dio after he was bought out by the Jazz.

This time, Morey is even more uncomfortable, and there are really not many players left for him to sign.

In the end, he had no choice but to sign Delon and Troy Williams.

Rose and Wade became Delon and Troy, which really responded to the words of Rockets fans after seeing the news, and Morey gave fans a Trojan horse plan.
