"The Kings are a bit of a "Lei Feng"? Three-way trading, not what you think! 》

Just four hours after OJ released his proudest work this offseason - the breaking news article about the big trade of the Kings, Lakers, and Pacers.

ESPN's official Twitter account posted a link to the news.

With this title, most of the fans who have not yet recovered from the excitement of the three-way big deal clicked on this link with the mentality of "it's okay to look at the analysis article".

As a result, a new round of storms swept the world.

"And this kind of operation ......?!!!"

For a time, similar remarks swept the entire screen in almost all basketball communities around the world.

The Sacramento Kings sent four bench players, condensed them, got three bench players, and ate the big contract that the Pacers offered to Granger to be Lei Feng?

Definitely.

The Kings are not so stupid!

"In an article circulating on the Internet today, there was a major mistake in the breaking news about the three-way big deal of the Kings, Lakers, and Pacers. And this mistake directly led to the rating score of the transaction itself, as the most well-known sports media in the United States, it has obtained truly accurate first-hand information, and is now shared with the public to set the record straight! ”

looks like an international policeman, ESPN, a big platform, really has an unusual temperament. If he says it, he is powerless to refute a business giant like Yahoo.

But whether it looks good or not, whether it is a mule or a horse, has to be pulled out and yo-yo.

ESPN's article, although it claims to be written by a "reporter who has been covering the news with the Kings for more than three years." But this reporter is not well-known, obviously a small role, no matter how accurate the revelations are, it is theoretically impossible to surpass the OJ god.

But even if they read this article with a skeptical attitude, the fans were still deeply shocked by the information disclosed in it.

You must know that after the news of the three-way deal was exposed, from the Internet to TV, from experts to fans, they all began to wait to score this deal.

The general view is that the Lakers used Howard to get a good bargaining chip, but after all, sending away the league's No. 1 center is just a stop-loss as much as possible, and the highest trade rating is about a B.

The Pacers, for their part, got rid of two bad contracts, sent away Stevenson, the plague god, got the coveted interior superstar, and cleared up salary space for the free market next year. Even if the current squad is dismantled, the strength of the new squad is still enough to go to the second round or so in the playoffs, and the overall strength does not have much impact. Deal rating, A+ without a doubt.

But on the Kings' side, the situation is a little more delicate.

Although the substitute players sent away are old and tender, and their potential is not as good as half of Gu Yu, they are all pragmatic players, except for Bai Shiwight, all of them are very obedient and disciplined, and it is no problem to be a sapper.

And the players that the Kings got looked beautiful and famous, but Granger's injuries and Stevenson's personality were all hidden dangers. Only one Gerald Green is plug-and-play and seamless, but it's not the key to changing the situation.

"With four and a half cents, in exchange for two pieces, and a missing corner, I don't know if the bank will give the exchange or not, do you say this is a profit or a loss? Transaction rating, give a maximum of C! Some experts commented on the TV program.

The overall strength has improved, but it is not obvious.

The age of the players has decreased, but it has not meant much.

At the same time, he also ate Granger's big contract and locked up salary space.

The Kings' deal can only be said to be decent, and the improvement of the team is quite limited.

But the content of the revelations published by Xiaoyu completely changed everything.

"Among them, there is no problem with the Lakers' side, whether it is the inflow or outflow of personnel, it is relatively accurate. The problem is on the side of the Pacers and the Kings. ”

Walkers and Kings ......??

When Xiao Yu's article saw this, many people who knew the ball immediately opened all kinds of information and began to compare the salary matching in the transaction.

The Pacers want salary space in a year, and Garcia is sure to get it. Hayes, you can cut it at any time, it's not a big problem.

On the Kings' side, Granger must eat the players he gets, otherwise the Pacers would not have agreed to such a deal. This loss has been decided, and the salaries of the remaining two players add up to less than four million, what can be spent on it??

"What other players on the Pacers' side add up to about four million, ......??"

The football emperors flipped through the web pages, looking for possible salary leveling directions.

Gerard Green for Augustine?

No way, the Kings have enough ball-handlers, and there's no need for another Augustine.

Then Hansbru?

It's not as good as Gerard Green!

Or maybe Stevenson was replaced by Sam Young or something??

Didn't the king lose his horse? ESPN will say in this situation that the Kings are not Lei Feng, but earned?

The Kings aren't that stupid, and ESPN isn't that stupid, right?!

"Gerard Green's salary of about 3 million, who else on the Pacers is at this salary level...... Wait a minute......! ”

There are so many answers to choose from, and it is not difficult to guess who will be selected for a simple calculation.

Walkers......

"In the trade, the Indiana Pacers sent the players, in addition to Granger, Hibbert, and Stevenson, the fourth player to be sent away was not Gerard Green."

Looking back and continuing to look at Xiao Yu's article, the answers marked out in the text are shocking.

"It's Paul George."

…… TF？！！！

Fans all over the world are crazy.

Send Paul George away??

Paul George, who is still on his rookie contract but has averaged 17 points per game and has the potential to become a quasi-star-level wing??!

Isn't that the Kings......

"The Sacramento Kings got the players, in addition to Granger and Stevenson, the third person is Paul George!"

Lose your marbles.

The Sacramento Kings are really going crazy in the new season!!

"Why?? Is it because George's hit percentage is low? Do Pacers really don't want a future? Send George away, who will be used in the third position in the future...... Oh! I see!! ”

The Emperor of the Ball had just roared a few words, and suddenly he realized the logical problem inside.

First of all, Paul George has really improved rapidly, averaging 17 points, 7.6 rebounds, 4.1 assists per game, and 1.8 steals in his third season, and becoming an All-Star player is just around the corner.

But at the same time, in the third year of his career, George, who was pushed to the front line of the team after Granger's reimbursement, did play the worst of his career, and it can even be said that he dived into a slump of efficiency.

For the first two years, George shot around 45 percent — a benchmark for wing player percentage, as everyone knows. At this level, it can be said that he is a scorer of average efficiency. One step further down is a good blacksmith.

And in the third year, Paul George faced a real number one defensive intensity, and while his scoring increased, the price he paid was a surge in the number of shots and turnovers.

The most terrifying thing is the Waterloo-style performance of the shooting percentage, a 41 percent shooting rate, no matter how consistent George's performance is, I have to admit that he is a scorer with low efficiency.

At least when he, as the ace of the team, needs to solve the problem alone, George's efficiency is really impossible to see.

What is the concept of a 41 percent hit rate? The famous blacksmith Jason Kidd is almost at this level.

You could say that Kidd has the all-time number one mind, has the best vision, and has a terrifying super buff aura that lifts the entire team. But you can't say in good conscience that Kidd is an efficient scorer, can you?

It's the same thing with Paul George.

"George's defense, rebounding protection, setter vision and approach are all remarkable. In particular, the one-on-one marking ability is the top in the league. But his scoring efficiency doomed him to be the number one star of a championship-caliber team. Among the reasons the Pacers gave up on George was a concern about this. ”

Xiao Yu's article analyzed: "The more important reason is undoubtedly the Pacers' thoughts and expectations for the future. As we all know, next year's free agent market will be full of big names, and the 03 super platinum generation players have ended their contracts, the most notable of which is undoubtedly LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony. These two players, both in the No. 3 position, overlap with Paul George, who has just transitioned to the No. 3 position. ”

That's right.

The emperors who understand the ball are nodding while watching, and this reason is indeed the most critical.

Whether the Pacers have the ability to take LeBron or Anthony, this is not to say about him, but at least they have enough salary space, and the probability of getting a naked signing is much higher than that of other teams.

And everyone knows that the 03 generation has reached this stage of their careers, and they have long passed the time of data accumulation, and they are thinking about how to get a championship ring.

James and Anthony, the peerless duo, one was first beaten by the Spurs in the East, and later formed the Heat Big Three and was beaten by Chen Mu, and the bitterness in his heart really didn't know who to talk to.

Anthony was even more miserable, and finally made trouble for a long time to get to the coveted Big Apple New York City, and formed a loofah combination with Xiao Si. But Xiao Si was injured, and the chemistry between the two was not good, and he was also beaten by Chen Mu every year.

Chen Mu was like a giant heavenly spirit palm above the two of them, and the shadow lingered.

If two big names leave their respective teams, two conditions must be met for the selection of a new team.

First, the new team must already have the quality of the second round of the playoffs, and with them, they can go straight to the championship – they can't afford to wait to rebuild.

Second, there must be a person in the inner line, who is more or less on the top of Chen Mu, and don't suffer too much.

With Howard, a Pacers of the Division Semifinals caliber level, there is a lot of hope.

Maybe the Pacers have other motives, maybe Bird really wants the superstar to go crazy, Shi Lezhi.

But none of this matters.

Importantly, the Sacramento Kings ......

"Hahaha, I'm dying!"

Gu Yu's Twitter, after the dust settled on the transaction, the first content sent out was arrogantly "Very Gu Yu" ......!
