Chapter 533: The Big Deal

Recently, there have been a lot of NBA trade rumors, which everyone knows, although the current Boston Celtics and Vancouver Grizzlies are two teams after that big mass incident, it is surprising that there is no big decline in results, although the Boston Celtics have lost two games, but the 24-2 record is not a bad result, and this record is still the first in the league, and the same record as the Boston Celtics, The Grizzlies even have a better record after the suspension of the four main players, and now the team's record is 22-4, after the suspension of the four main players, the defending champion team only lost one game, it can be said that after the suspension of the team's four main players, the Grizzlies' Carter and Reed are completely carrying the team. Come on,.!

It's just extremely worrying, especially for Grizzlies fans, that in the last ten games, their boss Carter has averaged 46 minutes per game, which can be said to be completely regarded as playing the full game in ten consecutive games, after this team lost their four main players, the Grizzlies have only one goal, that is, Carter, who completed the Grand Slam last season, it can be said that Carter is under much more defensive pressure than before, and in this case, it is necessary to maintain such playing time, This is a burden on a player's body, and what is even worse in these games than the dramatic increase in playing time is that the player must concentrate at all times and not relax at any time, because such a team without a young man does not have many opportunities to adjust. It can be said that there is no room for any tactical buffer, and in such a situation it is difficult to recover if you fall behind in the game. This requires absolute concentration from the start, and the game has to be fought from the start. In such a situation, Carter's average of 46 minutes per game is a real 46 minutes, and not a minute of his playing time can be rested on the court to adjust the soy sauce, and now the whole team is pointing at him, whether it is defense, offense or organization, it all depends on him.

If November in the NBA belongs to Kobe. Kobe Bryant played a terrifying 9 consecutive games with 40 points, 13 consecutive games with 35 points, and averaged more than 40 points per game in a single month, so it belonged to Carter in December in the NBA. Last season's MVP was even crazier this month than Kobe Bryant last month, Playing an average of 46 minutes per game, he can average 41.5 points, 11 rebounds and 7 assists per game, because in such a Grizzlies, if he and Reed don't score, no one can score at all, if he doesn't grab rebounds, then only that Chinese interior Bartel is the only one who protects the team's rebounds, if he doesn't organize the team's offense, then the team is completely scattered, in this team with only six people to trust and rotate, last season's MVP has basically reached the limit of what his body can bear.

Compared to Carter's tragedy, the team's current second-in-command home is not much better, although it is said that because of the team's large-scale ban, he has completely come out. In the last ten games, the bench guard can contribute an average of 25 points per game after rising to the starting position, and it can be said that he has become Carter's most trusted helper, but even so, the defender's playing time is not much less than Carter's, and as far as the current situation is concerned, he and Carter's situation is similar, and they are on the verge of collapse.

If this team finally chooses to sacrifice the record to rest the team, then it is very likely that the breath that has been hanging on this team will be directly unloaded, and it will be difficult to start again in the future. And even now, Jerry West still hasn't given up the idea of defending his title this season, and he hasn't given up the idea of winning the regular season first, and he himself is absolutely unwilling to sacrifice the team's record, which is very difficult for Jerry West in this situation, because he has to be forced to make a change to the team's lineup. Now Carter and Reed can't hold out until Billups and Ben Wallace come back.

It's just surprising that although everyone knows that the Grizzlies will trade, the Grizzlies head coach seems to be hesitant about who to trade, and it is obvious that for this team, trading Rasheed Wallace and Artest is inevitable, because these two are the most valuable trades, and the suspension is the longest, and the two have always been not on good terms in the team, in this case, only these two can choose, but Jerry West is very hesitant when he makes the final choice.

This made Zhuang Fei, who had been watching the excitement, very curious about who Jerry West would choose to be the team's second child, but in the end, when the three-way trade between the Grizzlies, the Timberwolves and the Hawks took place in the newspaper, Zhuang Fei knew what the Grizzlies head coach thought.

In the three-way deal, the Vancouver Grizzlies sent the team's core interior Rasheed Wallace and the team's current main center Battle, while the Hawks sent the team's core point guard Jason Terry and interior Nazel Muhammad, and the Timberwolves sent the team's backup point guard Johnson.

Then the Vancouver Grizzlies get Terry and Muhammad from the Hawks, while the Timberwolves get Battle and the Hawks get Rasheed Wallace.

On the day of this deal, the Grizzlies announced that they would sign back Reaves, a center who was sent to the Timberwolves last season, and then did not find a job after the contract expired, in this case the Grizzlies have completed the construction of the team's temporary lineup, and the current Grizzlies lineup Reaves is obviously stronger than Battle, this center can still play 16+8 two seasons ago, but after going to the Timberwolves, because of Wang Zhizhi's playing time, the data has declined too much, and his expectations for himself are too high, So he hasn't found a job until now, and when the Grizzlies extended an olive branch to him, he didn't hesitate to agree, it seems that he has no resistance to being able to re-match with Carter, and Muhammad is not a player who has been a famous player like Reeves is also a powerful player, as for getting a Terry who can share the scoring and organizational pressure for Carter on the outside line, it can also relieve the pressure on Carter and Reed.

Of course, although the Grizzlies deal was forced to happen, it is not a loss no matter how you look at it, and the Hawks in order to find a rebuilding core that really fits with the big dog Robinson will also be sent away to welcome Rasheed Wallace, for the Hawks Rasheed Wallace even if he is suspended for one season, for this team they never thought that they could enter the playoffs this season, Even this team has now begun to swing around like a lot of teams in the hope of getting Carmelo Anthony of the University of Maryland or that top high school kid LeBron James, who is now unsure whether or not to participate in the draft. In this case, if you really get one of Anthony or James, plus Big Dog and Rashid, the Hawks will immediately become a strong team. The Timberwolves, on the other hand, are ready to get a few more Chinese because the recent rise of Yao Ming seems to have made the team's owner see a hint of danger.

In fact, when Zhuang Fei saw that Jerry West sent away Rasheed Wallace instead of Artest, Zhuang Fei also sighed, if it was him, he would choose to keep Rasheed Wallace, but it is obvious that Jerry West values Artest's potential more, although the current Artest is not as good as Rashid on the inside fulcrum in the role of the team, but this small forward has signed a six-year contract with the team, and his future is more certain.

After the Grizzlies' big deal, all the media focused on it again, and Zhuang Fei put down the newspaper in his hand and began to take the team on the road trip again.

The Boston Celtics have played two back-to-backs in the first five days, and the Boston Celtics will have another away back-to-back after a day of rest, which means that the Boston Celtics need to play six games in eight days, and all of these six games are back-to-back. This was also due to the Boston Celtics' loose schedule at the end of last month.

On December 21, Cleveland, the Boston Celtics played the first game of their back-to-back away games, and the Boston Celtics, who had just been defeated by the Timberwolves at home two days ago, were expecting to win this game, after all, the Cavaliers' record this season is not too good. And recently, many teams in the lottery area have started to brush up their results.

It's just that when Zhuang Fei and his somewhat tired Celtics came to the Cavaliers' Gunde Arena, it was not the case at all, unlike other lottery records, although this team had a really poor record, but it was extremely serious, when Zhuang Fei saw Penny Hardaway on the bench of this team, he understood, although the Cavaliers boss who was reimbursed for the season could not play but had been supervising the line, in this case it was difficult for these Cavaliers players to release water.

When the game was over, Zhuang Fei looked at the score of 82-89 on the scoreboard of the Gunde Arena and sighed, the Celtics players in this game had a very poor hand, even if he kept changing his tactics, he failed to turn the situation around, and finally lost to the team of Big Z, Boozer and Andre Miller and Ricky Davis.

"No wonder the Lakers lost more than 20 points here, if this group of people really played with momentum, it would be really difficult to deal with"

After the end of the game, Zhuang Fei also left here with the Celtics players a little helplessly, and the loss of this game made the Boston Celtics suffer consecutive defeats for the first time this season, and the record also became 24-3. (To be continued)
