A few days later.

It's been a while since the end of the season, but the trading market has just begun.

In the free market, Su Chen basically didn't bother to pay attention, and Su Chen has been planning the trading market recently.

One of the first problems he had to deal with was Paul.

Paul is a great player, and it has even been said that if Paul can be ten centimeters taller, it will be enough to change the league.

But the reality is that Paul is not ten centimeters taller, and Paul is actually the player who guarantees the team's lower limit, not raises the team's ceiling.

Paul's organizational skills are indeed very good, and the whole team has a strong ability to guarantee the playoffs under Paul's transfer.

But Paul is a person who always has some very strange ideas at critical moments, and will play some cautious eyes.

In short, Su Chen has already classified Paul as a bargaining chip, and at the same time, Redick is a person Su Chen doesn't want to put him in the team disgusting, he needs to reshuffle the team's guard line.

But regardless of what he thinks of Paul, there's no denying that the Clippers cannon is very valuable.

Or that Paul's whole life was very valuable.

After Su Chen's knowledge of Paul's trade between the Wizards and the Warriors, Paul's former club acquired a total of 25 players, including draft picks, by trading Paul.

The most famous is the 7-for-1 of the Clippers and Rockets, and you can imagine how valuable Paul is.

Even at the age of 38, Paul can still exchange 1 for 5, and the general managers of the league like Paul very much.

Regarding Paul's trading plan, Su Chen gave Mark Hughes three trading plans.

The first plan is to trade with the Cavaliers, at this time Irving is quite obedient and is at the peak of his football skills, and he doesn't have those trouble-making intentions, and Paul's value can not only be exchanged for Irving, but also for some other assets of the Cavaliers.

The Cavaliers would probably agree to this trade, because the current Cavaliers are very eager to get James back to Cleveland.

And the relationship between Paul and James, James will like this brother very much.

Compared to Irving, who is not very familiar with him, James will certainly prefer Paul, who has become famous in the league and, and he is more familiar with it.

And about this deal, Su Chen relied on James's good impression of Paul and planned to rip off money.

That's the champion sign in the knight's hand, and he also plans to rob the knight's other assets.

For example, Tristan Thompson, Delevidova and other good role players can be added.

In the case of such a robbery, it is estimated that it will be more difficult for the knight to agree.

But Su Chen didn't expect much to succeed in the robbery.

Besides, this champion was really given to him, and he still didn't know who to choose.

The original champion Wiggins Su Chen directly did not consider it, although the champion won the championship with the team in his Warriors career, Wiggins' Timberwolves career can only be described as bad.

Su Chen didn't want the team to have an uncle with a thermos cup shopping on the court.

The second is Embiid, who was originally the third pick.

But the future MVP, his playoff performance is a bit hard to put into words.

And the most important thing is that if you choose him, you have to raise him for two seasons first, and then you will start your career debut in the third season, which makes Su Chen not choose.

As for Jokic, although he is the first person in this class.

But Jokic, who could have been selected with a second-round pick, why did he use the top pick to pick it?

If these three people are not selected, the remaining Ravenssmart, Aaron Gordon and others are not worthy of the top pick.

Therefore, if he really robbed the champion sign, Su Chen would also face the problem of not having a suitable candidate.

The second option is to find rockets.

Looking for the Rockets is naturally to exchange for Harden, this year, whether it is the draft or the free market, there are no good guards, and in this era, I don't know why the price of the forward line has not gone up, but good guards are very expensive.

Paul's value is high, but in the case of not using Paul, Paul must be used to choose guards first.

But the Rockets probably have a hard time agreeing, because the Rockets have made it clear that Harden is their cornerstone player.

Paul's value is high, but it is difficult to say whether he wants to change the Hakishi.

The third option is to go to the Trailblazers.

Lillard will officially be at the top of his game next season, and it's hard to judge what kind of player Lillard is.

In terms of the ability to lead the team alone, Lillard is a notch lower than Paul.

Lillard is a single-core team that can impact the playoffs, and Paul is a single-core team that can lead a relatively stable playoffs, and there is a gap between the two in terms of their ability to lead the team.

But Su Chen still feels that Lillard is a more suitable piece of the championship puzzle than Paul.

Looking at Lillard's stats alone, Lillard is a prolific and efficient attacker, with a true efficiency rating of the first tier for most of the season.

When the team needs to attack, give the ball to Lillard, and he can just hand in an efficient answer.

So why is Lillard attacking so badly and leading the team to no success?

Because no matter how strong Lillard's offense is, it is still not as strong as Curry, and the small point guard has already achieved much success, and Curry is probably the only one who has succeeded as an offensive small point guard in NBA history.

Offensive small point guards like Lillard are projection-oriented, and it is difficult to guarantee the efficiency of the basket, and when the three-point shot cannot be opened, the basket cannot be opened, and the whole team will fall into a scoring drought.

And Lillard's mid-range is a weakness of all his offensive weapons.

The efficiency of attacking the rim is not guaranteed, and at the same time, the mid-range shooting is unstable, and Lillard will be more embarrassed on the court when the three-point is tightly guarded and there is no touch.

To put it bluntly, Lillard's strongest is to shoot with the ball in three-point after blocking, and when the opponent targets Lillard's three-point and basket, Lillard's passing ability is a little better than the average but does not reach the passing of an elite point guard.

Passing errors soared under high intensity, and Lillard's defense was still below the passing line.

That's why Lillard isn't as good at leading the team as Paul.

Paul's masterful passing, his ability to punish big men after pick-and-rolls, and his high-intensity defensive ability can make the team very good.

But Su Chen still wants Lillard and doesn't want Paul, with Paul's style or character, it is difficult to become an honest second leader.

Even the older Sun Paul, in the face of young Booker, is actually not so honest to be a second-in-command.

Lillard, on the other hand, doesn't have to be the boss, his style of play with the ball, blocking and shooting three-pointers can adapt to many systems, and even his off-ball ability is also good.

There is only one Curry in this era, and Su Chen naturally doesn't want to build a team with a small guard.

The positioning of Lillard is still a role like a second-in-command or even a third-in-command.

In addition to Lillard, Su Chen is also quite interested in Batum.

Batum can defend some tall forwards without suffering, and when the Timberwolves entered the play-in tournament to face the Clippers, Towns beat Zubac to the point that he didn't dare to play, but used Batum to defend Towns immediately became a gummy bear.

At the same time, Batum's playmaking skills and the occasional ability to attack the rim make this player valuable in this era.

Besides, who in the league would dislike such a thing as a high-quality striker?
