As the season progresses, some summer trade value is slowly emerging.

There are two types, one valuable and one non-valuable.

At the same time, many teams in the league have found that the roster they assembled in the offseason seems to be not bad, and they have the strength to fight. So the strategy was changed, and the original modification became a tinkering of the corners.

The Kings need to be tinkered.

Wang Ming searched for half a month in the free market, and finally, completed a small deal.

The Kings made a deal with the Orlando Magic.

The Kings sent away in-form shooter Francesco Garcia and got backup center Marcin Gortat from the Magic.

Machin Gortat failed to make it to the Finals with the Magic and didn't show himself on a bigger stage, but his excellent performance when Howard was plagued by fouls on a few occasions still made him a lot of attention in the market.

In the summer, the Suns made a qualification offer of $25 million over five years, and the Magic chose to match.

Who knew there was another trade in the summer, when the Magic traded Vince Carter and interior player Ryan Anderson from the Nets.

Ryan Anderson, Brandon Buss, the Magic team is full of interior talent.

So far this season, the Magic's outside performance has been average, with a low three-point shooting percentage, and the rest of the players except for JJ Redick have not been able to bring enough firepower to Howard.

Stan Van Gundy's idea is clear, that is, Howard leads a group of shooters, Garcia shoots accurately, and has a strong physique, which is exactly what the Magic need at the moment.

It's just that fans don't understand, because Garcia is performing very well, shooting more than 4 to 5 three-point shots, and is the hottest shooter in the NBA at the moment.

Garcia himself was also surprised, he had already started to prepare for the next game against the Hornets in the Kings, but after finishing training, he was told that he had been traded to Orlando, oh my God, what is the reason, he just bought a house in Sacramento.

Garcia was sad, and the ruthlessness of the business and the determination of the alliance gave him a chill.

In an interview, Garcia expressed his dissatisfaction and anger.

"The Kings are a mess, from the uniforms to the players, I don't see hope in the Kings, thank you to the Kings for trading me, I'll make them regret it."

The slogans that erupt in despair are of course very loud, and the Kings are not easy to come forward.

How to say this.

People work hard and complain, they played so well before, but as soon as you turn your head, you sell people, just to change a seven-foot stupid big man, what is the reason?

General manager Jove Patri was finally interviewed with a look of resentment.

Wang will make a decision tomorrow, and in the end, he will have to come forward for public relations.

"We've seen Francisco deliver great results for the Kings over the past five seasons, and he's been a strong help in building and developing the Kings. But because of the need for development, because of the need to strengthen the inside, so we reluctantly traded him, we know that we lost this deal, we lost a great comrade, and we are also very sad. But, this is professional competition, and you have to admit his cruelty. Let's wish Francisco here and may he continue his outstanding career in Orlando. ”

At this time, Wang Tomorrow had already led the Kings players to New Orleans to challenge the Hornets.

And in Orlando, Gortat, known as the "Polish Hammer", has just boarded the plane to Sacramento, and after the medical examination is completed, he can officially report on the Kings, and the Hornets game will definitely not be able to participate.

On the plane, Wang began to arrange his troops tomorrow.

After Garcia was traded, Wang Tomorrow also had substitutes such as Nocioni, Cosby and Afflalo, which was actually a cleanup of his wing players.

In particular, Nocioni and Cosby have similar functions to Garcia, in fact, the king wants to clean up tomorrow.

It's just that there is no suitable trading partner.

So during this time, Wang asked Garcia to play more tomorrow, and sure enough, Garcia's data came up, the market value increased, and finally got a high-quality seven-foot center.

These days, interior players can be more expensive than outside players.

Garcia was traded, Nocioni, Cosby and other players showed excitement, don't look at the atmosphere of the Kings' intra-team relationship, but the pressure of competition is not small at all, Ron Artest in the small forward position is the main starter who can't be beaten, but the first bench player, now I can't say who it is.

"The Hornets have been plagued by some injuries some time ago, and their main player, point guard Chris Paul, has just returned from injury in the past two days, and the Hornets are currently 8-11 and 10th in the West."

Dwayne Casey handed the report to Wang Mingming, who nodded, one by one, and read it carefully.

.......

On the evening of December 8.

New Orleans.

The Hornets have a rare collection of full starts, Chris Paul, Devin Brown, Peja Stojakovic, David West, Emeka Okafor.

The Kings started little and Tyson Chandler was on the road today as the starting center, and he has played only a handful of games on the road so far this season.

The Hornets have gone through a change of coach.

Byron Scott became the first coach to be sacked this season back in mid-November.

At the time, the Hornets had not yet suffered from injuries, but the Hornets had a poor record of 3-6, and under heavy pressure, Scott became the scapegoat.

In fact, it's not just because of the poor record at the beginning of the season, but in the past few years, the Hornets have not made much progress after the establishment of the team with Paul as the core, and they have not even reached the Western Conference finals.

The coach who succeeds Scott is Jeff Ball, the Hornets' chief assistant coach.

Jeff Ball was pushed to the front desk, and the pressure was high, and the team suffered an injury.

But the amazing thing is that after Ball came to power, the Hornets played okay and won a lot of games without the main team, and his coaching record was 5-5, reaching 50 percent.

Not all coaches are like Wang Mingming, who can turn the tide as soon as he takes office, save the team from fire and water, and change the bad situation on his own.

Jeff Power's stunning debut in charge has lifted the team's morale and boosted morale.

Just before the start of the game against the Kings, the Hornets announced that Jeff Ball will be the official head coach of the Hornets this season, and his coaching will continue until the end of the season.

"A lucky guy." Casey shook her head, saying that it was certainly impossible not to be jealous.

Many assistant coaches dream of becoming the head coach of an NBA team, like Dwayne Casey, who also has this dream, so he is willing to learn from Wang's side.

Because Wang Mingming is the hottest young coach in the NBA today.
