Chapter 330 Three-party transaction
Regarding Paul's final destination, major gaming companies have placed bets one after another, and they are unanimously optimistic about the Knicks.

Because compared to the Lakers, the Knicks have more bargaining chips, such as Wilson Chandler, Gallinari and other potential rookies, the Hornets are more willing to trade, and Paul used to be qualified to be the boss and control the team. If he goes to the Lakers, he will definitely be the second child. .

In the Clippers, a bet was also made on Paul's whereabouts. Su Yang made a foolish bet on the Lakers, and Jordan and others were quite puzzled.

Su Yang explained that the Knicks seem to have more bargaining chips, but Paul's desire to compete for the championship is stronger. Considering that the Hornets will probably fulfill Paul, the Lakers are naturally a better choice. The only question is whether the Lakers are willing to play Bynum.

Such a point of view coincides with that of many TV commentators, and Bynum has become the focus of discussion in a blink of an eye.

The Lakers management's optimism and trust in Bynum made the outside world quite puzzled. After all, the big center has declined, and the Heat are the best case. The frame and backboard are okay.

On December [-], the Clippers rushed to the Denver Plateau to challenge the Nuggets away.

Perhaps because he has already applied for a trade, Anthony has no intention of playing. He only made 6 of 2 shots in the first quarter and made 3 turnovers. So-so.

In the second quarter, Anthony's symptoms became more serious. He made 4 of 0 shots and only 1 assist and 1 rebound.

In this way, Su Yang hadn't exerted his strength yet, and the Clippers led by 18 points at halftime, and other statistics were completely crushed except for fouls.

In the next two quarters, Anthony played a role player performance of 8 of 4 shots, and the Clippers easily won.

That night, they flew to Portland overnight, not excited about winning, and only cared about the progress of Paul's trade.

It is a pity that many reporters reported that the progress of the three-party transaction between the Lakers, the Rockets and the Hornets is still blocked. The Lakers are determined not to give Bynum because the Lakers leader Bass Jr. firmly believes that the center wins the world and must maintain the glorious tradition of big centers.

The reporter broke the news that Bass Jr. decided to get the support of Bass Sr. and others. The Lakers are willing to pay other chips or more chips, such as Gasol and Odom, and also want to keep Bynum as the cornerstone of the future team. .

After two days of rest, on the night of the [-]th, the Clippers were a guest at the Rose Garden and challenged the Trail Blazers away.

With Brandon Roy injured, Wesley Matthews finally became the starter and took on the scoring burden.

But the Clippers knew him too well, and the defense was extremely targeted. He only made 3 of 1 shots in the first quarter.

Except for Matthews, the rest of the Blazers played equally poorly. They fell behind by 15 points and entered the second quarter.

In this way, the Clippers played against the Blazers, the game entered garbage time early, and finally won 100 to 89.

After two consecutive trips, the Clippers rushed back to Los Angeles overnight to face the Sacramento Kings back to back.

The whole game was bloodless, Su Yang only played 25 minutes, and the Clippers won 98-91.

Since the game started very early, after the game, the whole team went to the Malibu beach for dinner. It coincided with the start of the Lakers' away game against the Heat. They simply ate and watched, and played a game of guessing the outcome, and the loser was responsible for paying the bill. .

The game was broadcast live across the United States, and the attention was extremely high. Many stars from Southeast China and Hainan watched it live at the American Airlines Center.

The two teams fought defensively at the beginning of the game, and the Heat's crazy pinch strategy made Kobe rarely get a chance to make a move. It was also difficult for the Lakers to pass the ball to the inside. They could only rely on Gasol to take a large number of balls in the high post, but Bosh defended like Garnett. Special attachment.

The Lakers tried their best to block the inside. Bynum and Gasol were both tall and strong, making LeBron James, who has the highest breakthrough efficiency in NBA history, discouraged. However, LeBron rarely hit two three-pointers and helped the Heat find face on the outside.

Just like that, the Heat entered the second quarter with a score of 20 to 14. Bosh continued to take the ball from a high position and made long shots, ignoring the Lakers' inside defense. On the Lakers side, Kobe Bryant was in his strongest state. assists.

It's a pity that Bynum was completely useless. After halftime, he only scored 4 points and paid for two fouls.

During the timeout at halftime, the Clippers will simulate their mouths against the Heat, making a preview for the upcoming Christmas battle.

There are many ideas, and Su Yang's suggestion received the most approval, which is to quickly transfer the ball and disintegrate the Heat's flanking attacks in a large number of areas.

After chatting for a while, the game between the Heat and the Lakers continued in the second half.

The Lakers chose to remove Bynum and directly used Odom to start, and the scoring efficiency was visibly improved by the naked eye.But Fisher's fierce defense allowed Carlos Arroyo to easily hit 2 three-pointers, and Kobe's hard work was wiped out in a blink of an eye.

The Lakers could only enter the fourth quarter with an 11-point disadvantage. As a result, Bynum and Fisher were intercepted by LeBron one after another. Because of their heavy weight and average age, they could not prevent the Heat from fast-breaking, resulting in a rapid expansion of the point difference. .

最终，热火96比80大胜湖人，拜纳姆全场6分5板3犯规2失误。

The Clippers also ended their dinner and went home, ready to continue to pay attention to the transaction dynamics.

ESPN reported that after the game, the number of keywords on social networks asking to trade Bynum increased rapidly.

Many tweets pointed out that Bynum encountered fast-paced teams, such as the Clippers and Heat, and had no room to play. If Bynum was replaced by Paul, the Lakers could form Kobe + Paul + Gasol super high basketball IQ team, and the defense has not weakened, or even strengthened slightly, even if you pay for one more future draft pick, it will be a big profit.

On the eighth, the Clippers sit at home and face the challenging Memphis Grizzlies.

Perhaps because of the acquisition of Tony Allen, the Grizzlies' outside defensive ability has greatly increased, and it is quite easy to deal with fast breaks.The game between the two teams turned into a hand-to-hand fight. After 47 minutes and 54 seconds of hard work, Su Yang made a foul at the last moment and completed the lore with a free throw.

After playing the Grizzlies, the Clippers rested for three days. On the night of the 11th, they faced the rival Lakers for the second time in the season.

Before the game, there was news that Bass Jr. supported Bynum, and Jackson would also focus his tactics on Bynum.

I thought it was just talking casually, but I thought that after the game started, the Lakers really focused on Bynum.

The Clippers then adjusted their defensive strategy, focusing on restricting Bynum from receiving the ball, all kinds of going around and big delays.

On the offensive end, the focus was also on Bynum, who got 2 fouls in the first quarter.

By the time the game was over, Bynum made a total of 11 shots, only 17 times behind Kobe in the Lakers team, and made 11 of 7 shots, scoring 18 points and 13 rebounds efficiently, but the Lakers lost 92 to 101. Boat.

Su Yang personally made 14 free throws, 8 of which were provided by Bynum, and Randolph also had 10 free throws, of which 2 were provided by Bynum. The Clippers thus established a winning foundation, and they were almost on par with the Lakers in other aspects.

After the game, calls to trade Bynum increased again, and Buss Jr. was photographed leaving the arena with a livid face.

But at the same time, news that the Hornets asked the Lakers to increase their chips was also reported because Bynum's weakness was too obvious.

Su Yang slept happily all night, got up and turned on his phone, and saw unexpected but reasonable news.

ESPN reported that the Lakers, Rockets, Hornets tripartite deal, Bynum was sent to the Rockets.
