Chapter 814: Bench Change (2/4!) )
An All-Star, plus a quality instant power, plus a potential rookie.
This offer from the Spurs is really a bit big.
Tang Tian, naturally, would not agree.
Leonard's injury recovery to a certain extent aside, it was the farce of this year that made him stay away from this kind of player.
In contrast, the dedicated Butler is much better than him.
And the Spurs' offer shows that they don't really want to trade, but just want to take the opportunity to increase Leonard's value in the trade market.
As in George's case last year, Leonard's trade value plummeted after the next home was designated.
Signings continued on the free market, and at the same time, the NBA's summer league season kicked off.
This year's Nets roster is a bit luxurious, although Michael Porter will not play due to injury, Collin Sexton and Mitchell Robinson will play, in addition to the sophomore Kuzma will also enter the team, and Ding Yanyuhang, a two-way player who played for the Nets last season, will also participate.
This is the deluxe lineup of the Summer League edition.
Jones is talking about the contract renewal of Rondo, Oden, and Wade, and Tang Tian also wants to inspect the state of several players, so he flew directly to Las Vegas with Rodgers.
With the improvement of the NBA's global promotion, the summer league has received more and more attention, especially with the addition of more overseas players, and the broadcast of this event has become more and more perfect.
For example, this year, in addition to Ding Yanyuhang, Chinese players Abdul Salamu Abdul Rixit and Heng Yifeng also participated.
(Note: Zhou Qi became the Celtics' starting No. 5 last season and will not play in the Summer League.) )
Tang Tian's arrival also brought more attention to this game, and the number of fans on the sidelines was twice as large as in the usual game.
Before the start of the game, Tang Tian also chatted for a long time with the special guest Carter, who was not far from retiring.
The core of the Magic team is the No. 6 show Bamba, which happens to be opposite the No. 7 show on the Nets' side, but the two are not in the same position.
The game started quickly, and the Nets were playing with the four main players on their side.
In the first round, Sexton came up and scored an inside breakaway.
Although this young man is only 1.87 meters, his style of play is strong, especially the appearance of holding back at the end, which is similar to Westbrook's seven points.
On the Magic side, Bamba also played with his teammates, catching the ball and trying to dunk under the basket, but Robinson couldn't jump in front of him.
This Robinson's body looks very hard.
Bamba's shot didn't go in, the Nets played a fast break, Ding Yanyuhang was fast on the fast break, and he directly dunked one in front of Kuzma's pass.
Fast and fast, although he was only a two-way player last season, he has received a full year of systematic training at the NBA level, and his personal ability and tactical literacy have improved greatly.
The Magic team, 17 years of draft loss Isaiah Briscoe received a teammate to cover the throw-down under the basket.
He chose the timing of his shot very well, but as soon as he made a shot, he was covered by a volleyball-style hat from Robinson and flew out.
There were cheers at the scene.
Tang Tian's eyes also lit up, although the game didn't last for a while, but this Robinson's movement speed and ability were completely carved out of the same mold as Little Jordan at the beginning!
It seems that Jones' intelligence is correct, and the Nets really picked up a big baby at the end of the first round.
The Nets are playing like a rainbow, and the strength of the Magic team is obviously not on the same level.
In the end, the Nets defeated the Magic 93-56 to get their first win in the summer league.
Don't look at the only 93 points, the summer league quarter is only 10 minutes, such a score is already an absolute high score.
Kuzma had a team-high 23 points and seven rebounds on a walk-up and shot 4-of-6 from beyond the three-point line.
Sexton had 16 points and 5 assists on 5-of-12 shooting, and his strengths and weaknesses were obvious, with his outside shooting not very consistent, but his impact was strong.
Ding Yanyuhang scored 15 points, 6 rebounds and 2 blocks on 6-of-10 shooting, and his performance was eye-catching, although he didn't score the most, he played with ease on the court, and like Kuzma, he had a feeling that he obviously didn't belong to the summer league.
Robinson was the brightest performer, playing a team-high 28 minutes, scoring 10 points, 13 rebounds and 4 blocks on 4-of-5 shooting and 2-of-4 free throws, completely overpowering Bamba on the opposite side.
If you hadn't watched the game, you might have thought that the two were reversed in the draft.
After watching the first game, Tang Tian was still in a very good mood.
Kuzma explained that he made the right choice, and Robinson really found a treasure, as for Sexton and Ding Yanyuhang, they still need further observation.
Summer League continues to play, and other signings on the free market are on the way.
Rondo finally chose to join the Pelicans for 10 million a year, and the Lakers chose to renew LaVine with 2 years and 40 million (team option for the second year), Randle for 2 years and 20 million (player option for the second year), and Oden signed to the Nuggets for 3 years and 50 million for 3 years.
Judging from a series of operations, all teams are still looking at the free agent market next year.
In this time, the Nets have shown their dominance in the summer league, winning consecutive games, and have won a wave of 5 consecutive wins, with an average net win of 20+ opponents per game.
The performance of several cores is also very stable, Kuzma easily averaged 20+ per game, Robinson also maintained stable data of 10 points, 10 rebounds and 4 blocks, Sexton's performance has ups and downs but has a visible ceiling, and there has been a single game 30+ performance, this No. 7 pick is not a loss.
The most gratifying thing is Ding Yanyuhang, who has risen steadily, averaging 14.8 points and 4.5 rebounds per game compared to last season, and if nothing else, the Nets will sign a non-guaranteed contract with him, which can ensure that the latter will appear in the team's preseason squad.
Summer League is about to enter the finals, and the free agent market is largely settled.
Wade finally chose to play for another year, and reached a veteran base salary of 233 with the Nets.
In this way, the Nets' roster for the new season has basically taken shape.
Now the only problem left is Anthony.
If Anthony's side can handle it, then the Nets' current interior configuration is enough.
If Anton's side can't figure it out, then the team will have to start to add to the interior lineup, or if the lineup doesn't change, Tucker will need to add weight in the summer to play the No. 5 position.
Because the offseason was about to begin, Tang Tian called Jones again to ask about the progress.
What he got was not good news.
Anthony's economic team has been looking for a full buyout, and the Knicks have been looking for a third-party deal that doesn't want to pay for it themselves, and the situation has been deadlocked.
