This striker is a bit of a monster

Chapter 272 Yi Jianlian Traded to the Charlotte Bobcats!

The meaning of the Charlotte Bobcats is to ask Zhou Lin to communicate with Yi Jianlian first to see if Yi Jianlian himself is willing to come to the Charlotte Bobcats. The price is too high, and the Charlotte Bobcats are completely interested.

In addition to Yi Jianlian, Rod Higgins also asked Zhou Lin about several transactions.

……

Before the All-Star Game, many transactions have been completed or player trends have changed.

One of the more famous ones is that on November 11 last year, the Detroit Pistons and the Denver Nuggets traded.

This deal changed two teams and the careers of two stars.

Among them, the Denver Nuggets have benefited the most. They got Chauncey Billups, the champion point guard and former FMVP. In terms of the angle of strength and the temperament of the game, it was instantly upgraded to a new level, and it also paved the way for entering the Western Conference Finals.

As for the Detroit Pistons, they have completely declined after that deal. The Eastern Conference Finals team and the championship team have also been reduced from a dynasty to a poor team. They will not get involved in the next ten years. The chances of a championship, and even making it to the playoffs are quite difficult.

As for the exchange of the two superstars.

Chauncey Billups, once again reached the Western Conference Finals, has he proved his worth? Of course, this is also one of his few successors.

Of course, the fastest fall from Yunding is probably Allen Iverson. Although he returned to the Eastern Conference and became the All-Star starter again, which proved his popularity, it cannot conceal the decline of the decline. The head coach wants He played as a substitute, and he was dissatisfied with this, and even broke with the management. His pride did not allow him to play like the old Pistons, and he couldn't stand the restraint.

He is a combination of the devil and the gods. When he has the qualifications of arrogance, he can be willful. Even a famous coach like Larry Brown must respect him and even obey him. But once he is old Gradually, after losing those proud capitals, he who fell into the mortal world will probably be overwhelmed by the world's verbal criticism, but so what, he is still the unruly Iverson. Unfortunately, the team's management The level of tolerance towards him is getting lower and lower.

What happened later, as we all know, went to Memphis, then returned to Philadelphia, and then in Europe, he left professional basketball, and the 'answer' was no championship for life.

In fact, after Chauncey Billups was put on the shelf by the Detroit Pistons, the Charlotte Bobcats moved a lot of thought. After all, Billups can make the Charlotte Bobcats in the East. After taking off, Higgins had called Detroit three times. Unfortunately, Michael Curry, then the president of the Detroit Pistons, had the same core asking price-Mike Dunleavy + Brandon Roy.

If this deal is done, the framework of the Charlotte Bobcats will be messed up now. The starting second and third positions, the team's current No. [-] scorer and No. [-] scorer will be traded at the same time, not to mention Chauncey Lupus is not a scoring guard, and he has to bear Zhou Lin's displeasure, so the deal was not completed in the end. Of course, the Charlotte Bobcats are very satisfied with the current results. Zhou Lin went to a No. [-], Brandon Roy's performance after his comeback is better than last season, and the team ranks among the top four in the Eastern Conference!
In addition, the New York Sale Club also traded Matt Collins and Zach Randolph to the Los Angeles Clippers on December 12 for Tim Thomas and Cutino Mobley. It can be regarded as a mutual blame between bad teams.

After New York got Tim Thomas, they quickly used him as the main bargaining chip and went to the Chicago Bulls in exchange for Larry Hughes. To be honest, the Chicago Bulls made a small profit from this deal. After all, Larry Hughes has revealed his cancerous traits, while Tim Thomas is diligent and diligent, and Chicago also got Jerome James and Anthony Robertson in this deal.

For this open Liberty supermarket in New York.

In fact, the Charlotte Bobcats have not been tempted.

Higgins once wanted to get Yao Ming's teammate Mobley to improve the backcourt. He hoped that Mobley would come to the Charlotte Bobcats to drive the bench with experience, and he had already reported chips. Unfortunately, Rod Higgins As a general manager, his ability is really limited, and he still failed to reach a deal with the Clippers, but New York has made it clear that he will not sell a single one, and give away some if he buys too much.

In addition, the Knicks have already planned to sell Marbury, another star of the team. Unfortunately, after putting it on the shelf, there is not even an inquiry on the market, and the Charlotte Bobcats are also waiting. So, if Marbury is waived, Higgins doesn't mind, let Marbury come to Charlotte to play as a backup point guard, and set up a second lineup. Of course, once Marbury is waived, the salary will drop to one. 200 million, there will be no less teams that the NBA wants to try on him.

In addition, another backcourt core of the Rockets, Steve Francis, who just returned to Houston last season, was traded to the Memphis Grizzlies. He took a 2009 draft pick and exchanged for a 2011 draft pick. The NBA career of Boss Francis is basically over, and the CBA is waiting for him. The Charlotte Bobcats once considered him, but considering Francis' current combat effectiveness, the reduction was too severe, and he finally chose to give up.

……

"This Chinese twin star has lifted off!"

"Is the news true or false, Yi Jianlian is going to the Charlotte Bobcats?"

"Going to the Bobcats, surrounded by Zhou Lin, is much better than receiving the bird's attention in Atlanta."

"A player like Lopez who can only eat cakes under the basket, how can He De squeeze Yi Jianlian to the bench."

"Change it, change it, there will be times when the Eagles regret it!"

"If it is traded, no one will watch the Eagles game!"

When there was a possibility of a deal between the Charlotte Bobcats and the Atlanta Hawks, all the Chinese fans were excited, and the website was full of comments, which became the most lively news in Chinese basketball.

Later, Lao Xu, a reporter stationed in the United States, also personally certified the authenticity of this news!
China's double juniors, the third-ranked combination, the Charlotte Bobcats will be the home team in the future!
A team has two Chinese players at the same time, and the two players are not the kind of soy sauce. In the NBA, they can be called the home team.

Of course, the conclusion of this deal was not easy. Although Yi Jianlian temporarily lost his starting position in the Atlanta Hawks, Yi Jianlian was last year's No. [-] pick after all. He only played for one year. Normally, a rookie would look for three years, but now it is one year. Time, Yi Jianlian is still a lottery ticket that has not been completely scratched, and there is still a lot of training value.

At the beginning, the Atlanta Hawks chose Yi Jianlian with the third overall pick instead of Al Horford, and I felt a little regretful. Now the Seattle SuperSonics, which has been renamed the Thunder, have already enjoyed the bonus of getting Al Horford.

The combination of Kevin Durant + Russell Westbrook + Al Horford has been regarded by the West as a force that cannot be underestimated. This pair of lineups that should not have appeared on the historical line appeared in this time and space Yes, and the running-in is very good. Westbrook and Kevin Durant are good at attacking, while Horford can pass the ball, support the frame and grab rebounds. He also has footwork inside. It can be said that the fit is very high.

Moreover, the Thunder this season has also won consecutive games since December, and it seems that the Thunder management has no intention of doing badly. It is currently ranked tenth in the Western Conference with 24 wins and 27 losses. , It has the potential to hit the playoffs.

What I have to say is that their record is almost the same as the possibility of winning James Harden with the third overall pick in history, unless the next game is completely defeated!
And this season's Thunder's three juniors have all performed well.

Kevin Durant's data of 25+6.5+2.5 is already a top scorer in the league.

The same second-year Al Horford also averaged 14.2 points, 8.5 rebounds, and 1.4 blocks per game.

The two have the possibility to copy Zhou Lin + Brandon Roy and create miracles in the West. After all, they still have Westbrook who averages 15+5+5 per game!

To be honest, the Eagles chose Yi Jianlian more or less out of jealousy. The same as the Charlotte Bobcats in the Southwest Division, because after Zhou Lin was selected, they won the record and also won the huge market in China. The unsuitability of the team's tactics, coupled with untimely injuries, various factors led to Yi Jianlian's failure to play an effect similar to that of Zhou Lin, so the added value of Chinese players is relatively small.

After Yi Jianlian received Zhou Lin's call, he quickly expressed his willingness to come to the Bobcats.

You must know that Ah Lian's personality is relatively introverted and low-key. Although his English is much better than that of Yao Ming who just arrived at the time, his integration is not as good as Yao Ming's.

Character determines fate.

He is not like many players chasing fame and fortune, who would refuse to come because the Charlotte Bobcats are a small market team. Of course, taking a step back, Zhou Lin, Yi Jianlian, and Yao Ming are all NBA players The exception is among players, because Chinese players don’t need to worry about going to a small ball market and not receiving advertisements and endorsements, because as long as they play well, the vast Chinese market will definitely make you money. Whether it is Zhou Lin or Yi Jianlian, most of the endorsement contracts are from Chinese capital.

Therefore, compared to Atlanta, Yi Jianlian is more willing to come to Charlotte. Zhou Lin is here. With Zhou Lin, his integration will be much smoother, and his possession of the ball will definitely not be better than that of the Atlanta Hawks. With less time, it will be better for your future development.

Zhou Lin also truthfully told the management of the Charlotte Bobcats about Yi Jianlian's willingness to come to Charlotte. Of course, this does not mean that Yi Jianlian will definitely come to the Charlotte Bobcats if Lang has a concubine's intention. , the negotiation will be a somewhat tortuous process.

For example, what players are the Bobcats willing to replace, and what bargaining chips do the Atlanta Hawks need to get back, and how to achieve a salary balance, and Yi Jianlian’s willingness to join the Charlotte Bobcats must require the management of the Charlotte Bobcats To promise something at the higher level, Danny Feigen also needs to negotiate with the Charlotte Bobcats. As an agent, he needs to guarantee his own interests for his employer, and Feigen is also in the NBA. One of the more difficult agents, this gentleman is a very aggressive agent who is very good at securing big contracts for players. Of course, because of his aggressiveness, Danny Fagan also has mixed reviews.

But in the end, the deal was reached. The subject of the deal sent by the Charlotte Bobcats was Boris Diaw. It is worth mentioning that Boris Diaw was in the Atlanta Hawks for the first two seasons in the NBA. Boris Diaw has only averaged 19.7 minutes of playing time per game this season, averaging 5.4 points, 3.2 rebounds and 3.7 assists per game. There is not much playing time and position for Boris Diaw. Except for Zhou Lin, Mike Dunleavy and James Posey often play at the 3rd position. In addition, Luke Mbah a Moute also needs to play. Time, and Boris Diaw is too tall to play at the 32th position. He has no ability to protect the frame. Of course, the Charlotte Bobcats sent James Posey at the beginning. Unfortunately, a 800 The 26-year-old Boris Diaw, who has an annual salary of [-] million and is extremely inefficient, is not well received by Atlanta. Boris Diaw, who is only [-] years old, went to the Atlanta Hawks. Johnson or Josh Smith's substitute, but Boris Diaw will take on the position of offensive engine and scorer in the second team, and he used to be teammates with Joe Johnson in the Suns, so it shouldn't be too difficult to integrate difficult.

It is also a very good choice for Boris Dior.

However, this season Boris Diaw's salary has reached 900 million, and Yi Jianlian is still in the rookie contract, which is in the early 400 million. The salary is not equal, so Atlanta still needs to increase the bargaining chip. Of course, Yi Jianlian is a high-quality deal. Object, not only will Atlanta not add high-quality chips such as draft picks, but it will also throw the thunder on its back to the Charlotte Bobcats.

Speedy Claxton, a 30-year-old point guard, has almost no ball to play for the Atlanta Hawks this season. This 180cm point guard still has a contract of 575 million. . Dior swap.

However, within less than 2 hours after the deal was concluded, the Charlotte Bobcats negotiated a buyout with Speedy Clarkston, and Clarkston did not need to come to the Charlotte Bobcats to report.

Yi Jianlian finally came to the Charlotte Bobcats to report on the eve of the All-Star Game, wearing the No. 9 jersey.

After laying off Claxton, the Charlotte Bobcats had another spot that could be signed. Rod Higgins did not waste it. He directly found Anthony Tolliver, who the Spurs had just given up, in the free market. , this gentleman is the 2007 draft pick, a swingman at the third/fourth position. Of course, even Boris Diaw, who is of the same height and position, failed to get too many opportunities for the Bobcats. Tolliver himself is also A spare tire, most of the time, it is probably to replace Luke Mbah a Moute in the Development League!
And after Yi Jianlian joined the Charlotte Bobcats, both CCTV and Sina have increased the number of broadcasts. The Charlotte Bobcats, which originally broadcast about 3 out of 2 games, now have 10 out of 9 games!

Everyone is looking forward to the 'Zhouyi' combination playing Chinese style on the other side of the ocean!
