NBA: Fusion of Pangu makes Kobe Bryant cry with envy!

Chapter 58

Russell looked around with confused eyes.

He was also panicking now.

Just now he was laughing at Su Pan, and the next moment he became the clown?

Many of this year's rookie players in the venue also showed surprised expressions.

It is normal for teams to trade before and after the draft every year.

However, it is not common for the top two teams to trade directly.

But last year, such a situation did happen. In

2014, the Cavaliers had just selected Andrew Wiggins and used him as a bargaining chip to trade for Irving.

This happened twice in two years, which made many reporters excited.

Countless media began to flock to the interview room prepared by the NBA, ready to wait for official news.

After the draft, Russell, wearing a Lakers hat, was fidgeting in the gym lounge.

He was very worried that he would be traded to the Timberwolves.

His ears stood up like two antennas, listening to Adam Xiaohua's report on the transaction results.

The Timberwolves sent: Su Pan + Thaddeus·���

Lakers send: Jordan Clarkson + Wayne Ellington + Julius Randle + Carlos Boozer + Roy Hibbert

"Oh my god!!!"

Russell was so excited after hearing the details of the deal that he shouted out loud.

What the hell.

His mood was like a roller coaster, with ups and downs!

Not only did he not leave the Lakers, but he became a teammate with Su Pan!

"Susu, fate has destined us to be inseparable!"

Russell's heart is beating wildly now.

Happiness can't come too suddenly!

……

Inside the studio.

Once the news was announced, there was an uproar

"What? Su Pan was really traded?!"

"I thought he was going to trade for some star players from the Lakers like Wiggins."

"Houlixie, this must be the most outrageous deal, a rookie has five starters"

"I was stunned. Two for five? The Lakers are really playing a big trick!"

"Yes, the Su disk hasn't been played yet, so why change it like this?"

"Are the Lakers crazy? They gave away a whole starting lineup just to get Su Pan?"

Sports media from all sides sighed when they saw this deal. There is really nothing wrong with it. The five players of the Lakers are almost catching up with a starter.

Whether it is the ball, although Clarkson and Randle are rookies, the former is gradually realizing his talent in the league, and the latter is the seventh pick in the draft and has the potential to be an All-Star in the future.

Boozer and Hibbert are even more rare.

Although the two are no longer in their peak state, the top offensive and defensive double tower combination is also a rare existence in the league.

As for Ellington, who made up the numbers in this deal, he is also a high-quality blue-collar player who can score 10 points per game.

Putting these five people in the NBA can indeed form a starting lineup for a team.

When the news spread to the Internet, the fans were also dumbfounded.

The Timberwolves fans were happy that they had two No. 1 picks, one inside and one outside.

Su Pan was traded away...

Although they got so many potential + All-Star players.

It was still quite abrupt... and the Lakers had just selected Russell and thought that Russell could inherit Kobe's mantle.

Unexpectedly, a wave of counterattacks came and Su Pan was taken!

But to be honest.

It seems that both sides are winners in this deal.

The Timberwolves sent away a super genius, but they got what they wanted most.

What the Timberwolves lack now is qualified inside players.

After Su Pan came, they still need to spend time to train.

The Lakers gave them three inside players at once, among which Boozer and Thibodeau were both former All-Stars.

The number played only 23 minutes per game in the three seasons, but he was able to contribute a stable output of 12+4+3.

Roy Hibbert plays the role of the defensive core in the team. Last season, he averaged 10.1 points and 7.6 rebounds per game.

There are skills and experience.

These two people will make up for the lack of experience with a group of young people in the Timberwolves!

At the same time, there is also a power forward Randle with a very good development prospect.

As a rookie with the seventh pick last year, Randle was placed with high hopes when he arrived at the Lakers, and Kobe taught him personally. The

Lakers have laid a good foundation for him, and the Timberwolves can be said to have picked up future combat power for free.

It can be said that this wave of trades by the Timberwolves has allowed them to firmly grasp the next five years.

Once multiple rookies in the team grow up, the Timberwolves can become a super team in the league.

And why didn't the Timberwolves want Russell?

The reason is also very simple.

The Timberwolves don't need Russell that much.

They don't have the extra energy to train a rookie.

After all, the Timberwolves have the golden boy Rubio, and Rubio's passing ability is better than Russell.

With him as the team's main point guard, the team doesn't have to worry about the connection problem at all.

Timberwolves general manager Scott Layden leaned back in his chair and leisurely lit a cigar.

He smiled as he looked at the transaction report that had just been reached on the table.

"I knew it"

"I tell you, although we are missing Su Pan, we have grasped the future"

"To put it bluntly, if we win the championship in the future, we have to thank these nice people in Los Angeles!"

As soon as the voice fell, laughter rang out in the room.

The Timberwolves are already looking forward to the new season.

Their starting lineup for the new season is quite luxurious.

Rubio + Zach Lavine + Andrew Wiggins + Julius Randle + Roy Hibbert.

Rubio acts as the organizer.

Zach Lavine, Wiggins and Randle, the offensive firepower of these three people has taken shape, whether it is shooting or finishing, they are at the upper-middle level in the league.

Any one of the three can contribute more than 15 points per game.

The most important thing is that they are so young!

If they make a name for themselves in the new season, they may also break through 20 points and become star players in the league.

On this basis, veteran Hibbert can not only keep the team in place, but also serve as the team's blue-collar worker. While training rookies, their bench makes other teams drool.

Singles Clarkson, Boozer, as well as veteran wolf king Garnett and little prince Prince.

The Timberwolves will become very powerful in the new season.

"Three years!"

Scott Layden raised three fingers and swore to everyone

"In three years, I will make the entire league remember the Minnesota Timberwolves!!!"

The Timberwolves raised champagne to celebrate the deal.

…………

The reason why the Timberwolves agreed to this deal was because they were attracted by this lineup and the future of the Timberwolves.

The reason why the Lakers put such a bargaining chip was also very simple.

I don't care about anything else!

I want Su Pan!

Not far away.

In the CCTV studio, the people from Xixi TV5 were stunned at the newly announced deal.

"Damn, it's me, right?……"

Zhang Weiping thought to himself, I was speechless.

I've been talking about how great Minnesota is, almost turning it into a world of ice and snow.

And now you tell me that Su Pan went to Los Angeles. Does Los Angeles even need an introduction?

But out of professionalism, and because Weiping Bryant also likes Kobe, Zhang Weiping quickly appeased the fans.

"Hahaha! It really gave us a big setback, but Los Angeles is great, it’s a big city, and I can play on the same team with Kobe."

"I look forward to Su Pan leading Kobe in his final years to lead Los Angeles to greater glory and create a Los Angeles legend that belongs to Su Pan!"

Highlight the key point.

Mr. Zhang Weiping used a tricky word.

""Bring" Kobe!

Thank you all for your reminders and love! I'm giving you a big gift! I'll continue to ask for your rewards, which are free love. Big Cat bows to you all and thanks!
