291 Summer 2006 trading market

At the same time, the collapse of the super ship of the Heat has given hope to teams across the league.

After two years, they finally had a chance to compete for the championship.

The teams have started an arms race.

Of course, because of the rules of the Super Luxury Tax, many strong teams are also extra careful when making transactions.

The super luxury tax has limited the Heat, but it has not affected other teams.

The Bucks sent TJ Ford to the Raptors for power forward Villanueva and some cash.

The Clippers signed Tim Thomas for four years and $24 million.

The Hornets and three-time All-Star Peja Stojakovic have reached an agreement to sign.

The Mavericks signed Jason Terry to a six-year, $50 million extension.

The Nuggets signed Nene to a six-year extension.

The Bulls traded center Chandler for the Hornets' PJ Brown and J.R. Smith.

The Pistons signed free agent Nazr Muhammad, who was part of the Spurs last season.

LeBron James and Dwyane Wade completed a 3+1 contract extension with the Cavaliers and Heat respectively.

Carmelo Anthony signed a five-year, $80 million contract extension with the Nuggets.

The Grizzlies officially completed a trade with Houston in exchange for Sean Battier for this year's No. 8 pick, Rudy Gay and Swift.

The Clippers signed veteran Cassel, and the Lakers signed Radmanovich.

Veteran Fisher defected to the Jazz.

The Pistons were reluctant to give Ben Wallace a big contract, and Big Ben switched to the Chicago Bulls and signed a four-year, $60 million contract.

The Celtics have signed Paul Pierce to a three-year, $59 million extension.

The Wizards signed Sangueira to a five-year, $23 million contract.

The Suns signed Banks to a five-year, $21 million contract.

The Nuggets traded for Hornets player J.R. Smith.

The Mavericks signed Davon George for 2 years and 4.2 million.

The Suns renewed Barbossa's contract for 5 years and 32 million.

The Mavericks signed Monsaa Bonsu.

The Cavaliers sign Drew Gooden.

The Mavericks signed Josh Barria, Pat Carroll, Ndudi Abby and Darius Washington, all on non-guaranteed contracts.

……

This offseason, the Mavericks, Suns, Pistons, Magic and other favorites have made moves.

The Mavericks have news of signings and trades every day, and it is clear that the championship is inevitable.

On the contrary, the Spurs barely moved. There are only a few minor fixes.

In addition, the Cavaliers, Nuggets, Bulls, Hornets, Jazz, and Clippers are not willing to be lonely and have recruited troops.

On the contrary, the Lakers almost didn't move after failing to compete for Li Lei and Yao Ming in a row, which made Kobe very dissatisfied.

It is foreseeable that next season will be a real war.

The Heat, 76ers, Mavericks, Magic, Pistons, Spurs, and Suns are all aiming for a championship.

The Cavaliers, Hornets, Nuggets, Bulls, and Grizzlies are also not to be underestimated, and they are likely to come out and disrupt the situation.

……

After a while, the trading market gradually cooled down.

Li Lei had difficulty moving, so he stayed in Los Angeles to recuperate.

Sometimes I play ball with Avril Lavigne.

I didn't think it before, but now that I'm idle, Li Lei feels that his body is seriously overdrawn.

But it's okay, he's young, just recuperate.

The ancients said that one piece is one relaxation. Today's people say that work and rest are combined.

It seems to be wise.

On July 27, Li Lei spent his 22nd birthday.

At the end of August, the men's basketball world championship began.

After another month, with the permission of his personal doctor, Li Lei began recovery training while watching the ball.

But at this moment, bad news came from Japan.

The Grizzlies' second leader, Spain's core player Pau Gasol, is injured.

In the semi-finals between Spain and Argentina, Gasol fractured his left foot and will miss the finals.

More details were provided after the game, with Gasol suffering a serious injury and will miss the next Finals and will be out indefinitely next season.

Li Lei: "......"

This TM...... The house leak happened to rain overnight, and the ship was late and encountered a head wind.

The two cores are injured, and the Grizzlies will still play next season?

……

At the end of September, Grizzlies training camp opened.

Li Lei appeared in a suit at the FedEx Arena.

It is worth mentioning that he was the first.

General Manager Jerry West and Head Coach Rick Carlisle greeted him personally.

Just this summer, the Pacers, determined to rebuild, sent Carlisle away, and the old man West was seamlessly connected.

Carlisle looked at Li Lei's size and said with satisfaction: "Stone, you haven't been blessed in the offseason!" ”

Li Lei smiled: "I have a shoulder injury, and my foot is not injured, so I have already started training." ”

Carlisle was more satisfied.

Look, there's a reason why people are making progress so fast.

In fact, in 2004, when Carlisle coached the All-Star Eastern Star team, he had a lot of exchanges with Li Lei.

He likes Li Lei's tactical execution, as well as his humble attitude and aggressive defense.

So it's not the first time the two have worked together.

At this time, Mr. West took out the list for the new season.

Centre-forwards: Darko Milicic, Hajim Varik.

Power forwards: Pau Gasol, Stromeyer Swift, Lawrence Roberts, Alexander Johnson.

Small forwards: Li Lei, Rudy Gay, Zhu Fangyu, Brian Cardinal.

Shooting guards: Eddie Jones, Terrence Kinsey.

Playmakers: Kyle Lowry, Jonathan Harrington, Will Conroy.

Seeing this list, Li Lei's eyes were blind.

In addition to himself and Gasol, is there anyone in this team who can play?

Memphis, it's hell mode!

The second to reach the team was Milicic.

Seeing that Li Lei was already pedaling, Milicic joined the training himself.

Last season, the Pistons traded Milicic.

Milicic played in 30 games for the Magic, averaging 7.6 points, 4.1 rebounds, 1.1 assists, 0.4 steals and 2.1 blocks in 20.9 minutes per game.

After two and a half seasons with the Pistons, Milicic's spirituality was gone.

Li Lei still remembers the trial in the summer of '03, Milicic can make three-pointers, dribble, and organize in the high post...... It's a big man who is an all-rounder.

Now, Milicic can't find any of that.

But there are two sides to everything.

Milicic's spirituality was gone, but something else was gained.

Now Milicic is much stronger than in '03 and has rough muscles.

In addition, staying among the defensive players such as Big Ben, Rashid, Billups and Prince for a long time, Milicic is very strong defensively.

In less than 21 minutes, he averaged 2.1 blocks per game, which is terrifying.

Milicic was still silent, just said hello to Li Lei, and trained with Li Lei.
