It's definitely a blockbuster franchise, but the price to pay seems a bit high.

Gasol Jr. has become the 76ers' highest-paid existence, you know, Iguodala's salary this season is only $13 million, followed by Louis Williams $5.18 million, then Tang Wenlong $4.95 million, and Hawes $4.05 million.

The rest of the people such as Speights, Meeks, Butler and others all have an annual salary of one or two million, which is the price of cabbage in the NBA.

It is difficult to unify the evaluation of this by the outside world, and there are some people who are in favor of it, and there are not a few people who oppose it.

Although there are few big men in the league today, is it worth signing a center with an average of only 11+7 per game for nearly 16 million? You know, this price is almost close to the ranks of the league's superstars, like Wade, Bosh and others, and it is only about 17 million.

The Grizzlies don't match understandably, and with the two big contracts of Rudy Gay and Zach Randolph, they simply can't afford a third big contract.

In this way, those who say that the 76ers have no action will also close their mouths, and people will not have no action, but a move is a big move.

Tang Wenlong didn't expect the 76ers to have such a big courage to grab a high-quality interior line, lost to the Celtics last year, because the interior defense and low-post offense are too poor, Gasol is very comprehensive, excellent defense, can not only sit in the low post singles, but also be able to block and respond in the high post, and even have a stable mid-range shot, which is the absolute team glue.

"Of course it's welcome, Mark's ability is obvious to all, he is a black eight Spurs all year round!"

When Tang Wenlong was questioned by the media, he greeted his new teammates so bluntly, and in the evening of the same day, he used Weibo @Marc Gasol. Welcome to the 76-member family. Mark Gasol didn't expect Tang Wenlong to welcome him from afar, and his warm treatment made him feel relieved about the trip to Philadelphia that was still a little apprehensive.

And so the free market continued to be hot.

Sports Illustrated reporter Dolores broke the news that Paul and the Los Angeles Lakers were plotting a trade, and the Hornets, who are hosted by the league, are also interested in getting certain players from the Lakers.

Paul, Kobe, Gasol plus Bynum? The Lakers' lineup seems to have become a little scary all of a sudden, even if it was swept by the Mavericks last year, if it really forms such a lineup. The Lakers will suddenly become a strong contender for the championship.

When Tang Wenlong saw the news, he was also speechless, compared with Gasol's joining on his side, the Lakers are called a big move, and the name of this reporter who broke the news, no matter how he hears it, it seems to be very familiar, isn't this the senior sister who studied journalism in college, but I didn't expect that she is already a real sports reporter now.

It didn't take two days. The Green Shirts conspired to trade David West with the Hornets, but it was unexpectedly revealed in advance, the Green Shirts were originally going to sign the All-Star power forward at a price of 26 million for 2 years, and the Hornets also intended to use the way of signing first and then exchanging to reduce their losses, but the Green Shirts were only willing to pay O'Neal Jr.'s chips.

On the 12th, the 76ers official website suddenly announced that it had signed with the All-Star level power forward. 22 million in 2 years, in the battle with the Pacers, who are also suitors. Win strongly!

"Stephaus actually won against Larry Bird?" When the news came out, even Tang Wenlong looked up to this usually inconspicuous general manager, who had heard that West had almost reached a verbal agreement with the Celtics, but it was only Larry Bird who intervened sideways to make things yellow.

Unexpectedly, now the 76ers suddenly came out and inexplicably won this All-Star level power forward.

Logically speaking. The 31-year-old David West is at his peak, especially in the last few seasons with the Hornets, he has averaged nearly 20+10 per game, even if he gives an annual salary of 15 million, it is okay, but it is just right. In March last season, West sprained his knee in a game against the Jazz and tore his cruciate ligament and reimbursed the season.

It is also said that the 76ers were too impressive last season, Tang Wenlong and Iguodala's two people are almost perfect on the outside, and the difference is only on the inside.

David West was also hesitant at first, but after seeing the addition of Mark Gasol, he no longer hesitated and decided to go to Philadelphia!

The 76ers have continued to make shots on the free market, and they have won consecutive successes, attracting the attention of the whole league.

Larry Bird jumped angrily, West was the person he fancied, and the Pacers were just one inside point of attack, but now they were cut off by the 76ers.

On the same day, the Lakers' official website reported that Kupchak officially announced the completion of a trade with the Mavericks, and Odom and a 2012 second-round pick were used in exchange for a trade exception for the Mavericks and a 2012 first-round pick from the Mavericks.

This is obviously a free gift, and the only valuable thing is the trade exception, and it is also obvious why the Lakers desperately want this trade exception, in order to be able to trade the queen of the Bee Paul.

Odom became a poor victim, he didn't want to leave Los Angeles where he had lived for more than ten years, Nowitzki made a statement saying that he was a fan of Odom, but Odom could only smile, and his heart was scattered.

The owners of the whole league are against the Lakers getting Paul, which is really BUGGY, and the happiest is the Mavericks owner Cuban, who just completed a trade with the Lakers.

But this is of no real use, the Hornets and the Lakers themselves chatted happily, on the evening of the 14th, they handed over the trade application to the league, and the deal even pulled the Rockets, the Rockets sent Martin and Scola, and it is said that Gasol could be sent by the Lakers.

The three of them negotiated very well, and the verbal agreement was reached, but the alliance did not agree to the deal.

At this time, the wasp belonged to the alliance trusteeship, and I don't know what the reason was, when it was handed over to the alliance, it was rejected for such a transaction.

Paul's heart is broken, Los Angeles, where he wants to go to the most, is also eager to be at the helm of the Lakers, but the league does not allow it.

But on the night of the 14th, the Los Angeles Clippers suddenly submitted a trade request to the league-hosted Hornets, trading Eric Gordon, Carman and a first-round pick for Chris Paul.

Although the Clippers have a poor record, the statistics of Gordon and Carman are very good, and because of the Clippers' poor record, this first-round pick is also very valuable. As for the Clippers, once they have Paul, their record will definitely improve, and the draft pick will depreciate. The general manager of the Hornets is not stupid, and he has gone with the stick, offering to trade Aminu, a young small forward who must be physically heavy.

The two teams argued for a long time and reached an agreement on the morning of the 15th, so the vigorous queen bee battle came to an end, and Paul went to the Los Angeles Clippers to partner Blake Griffin and DeAndre Jordan, two interior partners in the league with explosive dunk ability, known as the empty city!
