Kobe couldn’t believe what was reported on TV.
He even thought: "Did you make this transaction simply to retaliate against us?"
Li Zhen shrugged, he was noncommittal.
ESPN is announcing a shocking four-way transaction.
Los Angeles Clippers, New Orleans Hornets, Oklahoma City Thunder, and Houston Rockets each took out chips to rebuild.
The Clippers are considered to have the most aggressive chips, because they not only used Paul George, but also the team’s outstanding point guards Mario Chalmers, Steve Blake, Eddie House. One shot.
They traded from the New Orleans Hornets to Stephen Nash and the unprotected first-round pick next year, and they also got Cole Aldridge from the Thunder.
This is an operation that cuts everything into pieces. In order to get Stephen Nash, the Clippers used the most potential forward swingman Paul George!
It’s not a bargain.
ESPN directly defined the Clippers’ rating in this transaction as C.
Although Stephen Nash is very well maintained, he is 37 years old after all. What else can he do?
Although the Lakers' behavior in trading him has been condemned by the world, from the perspective of basketball, what they did is correct. They got the active first point guard, but what about the Clippers? They are sending out potential rookies to get an old-fashioned former No. 1 point guard... In fact, they have already got the former No. 1 point guard.
This transaction is really confusing.
Possibly the only feasible explanation is that Kobe Bryant said that the Los Angeles Clippers are deliberately using this behavior to stimulate the Los Angeles Lakers. Use this act of sacrificing yourself to condemn the Lakers' injustice.
But, why bother?
Kobe looked at Li Zhen, he felt that Li Zhen was too arrogant.
Li Zhen is noncommittal.
Regardless of what the public opinion says, Li Zhen thinks he has made a right deal. Paul George did very well last season, and the talent that is visible to the naked eye will become a big success in time.
However, with Li Zhen’s evolutionary upgrade on the offensive end, Paul George will not have much mobile phone left, and he can only fall into endless involution in the Clippers. It's a drain on this... the Clippers don't need a scorer at the 2nd position.
In contrast, Nash has rich experience and general style, and most importantly. He is an accurate shooter. He can hold the ball, launch an offense, and exist as a terminator outside the three-point line.
Players like partnered with Li Zhen, far more chemical reaction than Li Zhen and Paul George coexist.
Of course, there is one more thing: the 2012 Hornets pick.
Li is really confident that he can pick a better player than Paul George through this pick.
He already has many ‘familiar names’ in his mind who participated in the 2012 draft.
In addition to the Los Angeles Clippers being rated D in this transaction, the Oklahoma City Thunder did not get enough awards. They were rated C because they took out James Harden.
And it’s the previous and subsequent change.
They got Kevin Martin, the shooter from the Hornets, and then sent James Harden to the Houston Rockets.
Obviously, the detonator team can’t afford the salary burden brought by the super rookies.
Kevin Durant must be a maximum salary renewal, he activated the blues clause, Russell Westbrook also activated the blues clause. These two people will lock 60 to 70% of the salary space.
The detonator must choose between Ibaka and James Harden.
Ibaka is an indispensable inside resource, and James Harden is very good and has potential, but...they don't have that much money.
When the detonator learned that the Clippers were even willing to send Paul George outside, they were summoned up with courage, and the brave man broke his wrist resolutely.
In a way, it’s not bad to get Kevin Martin. Kevin Martin is a natural shooter and doesn’t own the ball. (But, who would have thought that James Harden would be so strong afterwards?)
The trade rating of Houston and New Orleans is defined as A. New Orleans completed a complete reconstruction, locked the cornerstone of the team, and got a group of rotating players. Houston also formed a core combination of internal and external lines through the attitude of vacating the cage and changing the bird. James Harden + Pau Gasol + Andrew Bynum, from the book, their strength is more even.
……
Isiah Thomas proudly stood up when the media were questioning: "For the Los Angeles Clippers, this is a great deal and a four-win deal. We sincerely wish Paul George a great success in New Orleans. A great achievement, he will get unlimited right to fire there. This is something we have confirmed in the transaction."
"Stephen Nash is a great point guard, his arrival will greatly increase the brand value of the Clippers. He will team up with Bruce to win at least three championships, and Jason Kidd."
"Never underestimate the heart of a veteran."
Thomas was very excited by his bold words in the media.
However, the media does not buy it. Even some fans are questioning the team's operation, Stephen Nash is really good, he was the leader of another team a few months ago.
But he is old after all.
Compared with Paul George, he has too many disadvantages.
Too many people think the Clippers made a dazed decision.
In fact, even the Clippers’ decision to trade Outlaw for Jason Kidd has also been criticized.
However, when the Clippers got two veterans for such a big price, the Clippers’ signings became easier.
Ray Allen’s agent tentatively contacted the Clippers, as well as Kevin Garnett. The two old Boston superstars are thinking about going to Los Angeles,
It's just that neither of these two are willing to give up the big contract in the last year of their career. Kevin Garnett's salary next season will reach 22 million US dollars, Ray Allen also has 10 million US dollars.
In this regard, the Clippers do not insist.
Isaiah Thomas said generously: "You can finish the last big contract and join the Clippers as a free agent."
At this time.
Stephen Nash, who returned to Los Angeles again, took the initiative to find Li Zhen.
In the past few months, Nash's mood has been like a roller coaster. At first, he swayed between the Clippers and the Lakers, but in the end he was moved by the sincerity of the Lakers, and when the Lakers got Yao Huang, the Lakers were indeed more competitive than the Clippers.
But, who would have thought they would sell Chris Paul so mercilessly after learning that they could get him?
At that time, Nash was extremely angry, he was extremely frustrated and hated. He didn't expect that the last active choice in his career would be such a result... At some point, he even thought about retiring.
He sought to buy out his contract at a low price in New Orleans, but the Hornets did not agree. They wanted to keep Nash in this rebuilding team.
This makes Nash desperate. He doesn't like the weather in New Orleans, nor does he like to stay with this downstream team as the interim leader... However, when his mood fell to the bottom, his agent suddenly told him: The Los Angeles Clippers are actively seeking a deal .
His mood is very complicated.
is full of hope, but also feel that the Clippers will not pay a high price to get their own veteran who was sold out.
But, when the transaction happened.
He was completely confused.
The Clippers not only took out the entire point guard line, but also took out the strongest rookie of 2010, a forward guard swingman who will become a big weapon.
When am I so valuable?
Compared with the Lakers' double-handedness, the Clippers move moved Nash to the point of tears. This emotional old man even had the urge to die for his confidant.
So, he found Li Zhen.
Li Zhen saw him for the first time and hugged him very hard: "I told you a long time ago that I want to be a teammate with you."
This warm hug made Nash's eyes wet.
"In my heart, you will always be the number one point guard in the league. I don’t care what others say, but here, this is a great deal, a deal that laid the foundation of our dynasty."
Li Zhen continued.
Li Zhen is full of linguistic charm, and he deeply impressed Stephen Nash.
Stephen Nash, an old man who never speaks harsh words, even told Li Zhen in the end: "I will not let these criticisms surround the team. I will do my best to help the Clippers become the best in Los Angeles. team."
"Of course!" Li Zhen patted Nash on the shoulder and emphasized: "I won't let the Lakers go. They have to pay for what they do."
Nash nodded vigorously.
He also decided to follow Li Zhen to ask the Lakers for something.
In fact, at this time, the Los Angeles media has also begun to hype the grievances between Stephen Nash and the Lakers. It's just that not many people are optimistic that he can succeed in revenge, after all...The Lakers' No. 1 position is standing by Chris Paul, who was in his prime.
The moving thing is.
After Nash and Li Zhen negotiated, he, like Jason Kidd, gave up the last year's $11.9 million annual salary and turned around and signed a three-year $20 million contract with the Clippers.
Of course this contract is worth the money.
Although the media has been emphasizing Nash’s age, he still has assists per game last season, and he is the only 180 club member in active service.
……
On the third day of Stephen Nash’s contract renewal.
Li Zhen met Allen Iverson in Los Angeles.
Iverson has not played in the NBA for more than a year, but it seems that he is in good shape. Larry Brown was his referrer, and they had some experience working together. Although contradictions often occur, it also allows Iverson to achieve a personal peak in the NBA.
The relationship between them has always been good.
Larry Brown has always been more concerned about Iverson's situation.
In fact, since the end of last season's playoffs, after Li Zhen declared at the MVP award ceremony that he would introduce veterans, Larry Brown was contacting Iverson.
Iverson is also waiting for a chance to return to the league.
So, since the beginning of June, he has devoted himself to systematic practice, and his sponsors are also providing him with active help, which makes his recovery quickly.
When he was sure he could still contribute his abilities in the NBA, he came to Los Angeles.
and found Li Zhen under the recommendation of Larry Brown.
Iverson can be regarded as Li Zhen's half idol, in fact...In the long history of the NBA, there are only two people who can exceed the scope of basketball and export cultural radiation to the society, Michael Jordan and Allen Iverson.
Iverson led the trend, he brought street hip-hop elements into the stadium in the 90s, and in-depth fit with his image, thus forming a cultural symbol.
At the peak of Iverson, he was the presence of voltage stabilizer Kobe.
It’s just that he slipped too fast.
In other words, his character made him and destroyed him.
Although he converged after arriving in the Nuggets.
However, he no longer has much ability to withstand the heavy counterattacks of those traditional forces and years.
He first lost his position in Detroit and then lost his job in Memphis...
Because of his unruly character, it is difficult for other teams in the league to give him another job, and no one knows what he will make.
Iverson expressed to Li Zhen his wish to return to the game, and he told Li Zhen that he had been actively training these months and did not do anything unrelated to training.
Li Zhen nodded, he believed Iverson.
Because he hugged Iverson when he met him.
If Iverson has depraved behavior recently, Iverson’s talents will be captured by him...He still has 6 points of talent space to be fed.
So, the conversation between the two became very simple.
Li Zhen and Iverson talked about the rossover skills for a while, and under his guidance, did a few classic Iverson stepping rossover.
Then he said to Iverson: "Okay. If you don't reject receiving a basic salary...it is likely to be a non-full guaranteed basic salary, and if you act as the team's second backup point guard, we can certainly have a wonderful season."
Iverson certainly does not reject these.
After years of scouring, the answer is still that answer, but the question is no longer long.
He will not talk about ‘training’ to reporters, nor will he claim that ‘have you ever seen an MVP, an All-Star player...being on the bench?’
Now, he simply wants to return to the highest palace of basketball, using his only remaining speed to draw a successful end to his career.
If you can get a championship, the best.
……
When the news of Iverson signing with the Los Angeles Clippers came out, the media was boiling again.
Because the Clippers’ back line has become a nursing home. From Jason Kidd, who entered the league in 1994, to Iverson and Nash, who entered the league in 1996, there was no post-80s generation.
This is 2011.
"The Clippers must still be living in 2000, otherwise it would be difficult for them to make such a choice. When other teams are determined to forge ahead and pursue strong support, they are doing this kind of work."
Bill Simmons sighed in the media.
He thinks it is harder for the Los Angeles Clippers to win consecutive championships this season.
Other commentators also think so, because the Clippers are really wayward! !
At this time, the Clippers announced another ‘heavy’ signing!
……
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
Kobe couldn’t believe what was reported on TV.
He even thought: "Did you make this transaction simply to retaliate against us?"

I will do my best to help the Clippers become the best in Los Angeles. team." "Of course!" Li Zhen patted Nash on the shoulder and emphasized: "I won't let the Lakers go. They have to pay for what they do."Nash nodded vigorously.He also decided to follow Li Zhen to ask the Lakers for something.In fact, at this time, the Los Angeles media has also begun to hype the grievances between Stephen Nash and the Lakers. It's just that not many people are optimistic that he can succeed in revenge, after all...The Lakers' No. 1 position is standing by Chris Paul, who was in his prime.The moving thing is.After Nash and Li Zhen negotiated, he, like Jason Kidd, gave up the last year's $11.9 million annual salary and turned around and signed a three-year $20 million contract with the Clippers.Of course this contract is worth the money.Although the media has been emphasizing Nash's age, he still has assists per game last season, and he is the only 180 club member in active service.On the third day of Stephen Nash's contract renewal.Li Zhen met Allen Iverson in Los Angeles.Iverson has not played in the NBA for more than a year, but it seems that he is in good shape. Larry Brown was his referrer, and they had some experience working together. Although contradictions often occur, it also allows Iverson to achieve a personal peak in the NBA.The relationship between them has always been good.Larry Brown has always been more concerned about Iverson's situation.In fact, since the end of last season's playoffs, after Li Zhen declared at the MVP award ceremony that he would introduce veterans, Larry Brown was contacting Iverson.Iverson is also waiting for a chance to return to the league.So, since the beginning of June, he has devoted himself to systematic practice, and his sponsors are also providing him with active help, which makes his recovery quickly.When he was sure he could still contribute his abilities in the NBA, he came to Los Angeles. and found Li Zhen under the recommendation of Larry Brown.Iverson can be regarded as Li Zhen's half idol, in fact...In the long history of the NBA, there are only two people who can exceed the scope of basketball and export cultural radiation to the society, Michael Jordan and Allen Iverson.Iverson led the trend, he brought street hip-hop elements into the stadium in the 90s, and in-depth fit with his image, thus forming a cultural symbol.At the peak of Iverson, he was the presence of voltage stabilizer Kobe.It's just that he slipped too fast.In other words, his character made him and destroyed him.Although he converged after arriving in the Nuggets.However, he no longer has much ability to withstand the heavy counterattacks of those traditional forces and years.He first lost his position in Detroit and then lost his job in Memphis...Because of his unruly character, it is difficult for other teams in the league to give him another job, and no one knows what he will make.Iverson expressed to Li Zhen his wish to return to the game, and he told Li Zhen that he had been actively training these months and did not do anything unrelated to training.Li Zhen nodded, he believed Iverson.Because he hugged Iverson when he met him.If Iverson has depraved behavior recently, Iverson's talents will be captured by him...He still has 6 points of talent space to be fed.So, the conversation between the two became very simple.Li Zhen and Iverson talked about the rossover skills for a while, and under his guidance, did a few classic Iverson stepping rossover. Then he said to Iverson: "Okay. If you don't reject receiving a basic salary...it is likely to be a non-full guaranteed basic salary, and if you act as the team's second backup point guard, we can certainly have a wonderful season."Iverson certainly does not reject these.After years of scouring, the answer is still that answer, but the question is no longer long.He will not talk about training' to reporters, nor will he claim that have you ever seen an MVP, an All-Star player...being on the bench?'Now, he simply wants to return to the highest palace of basketball, using his only remaining speed to draw a successful end to his career.If you can get a championship, the best.When the news of Iverson signing with the Los Angeles Clippers came out, the media was boiling again.Because the Clippers' back line has become a nursing home. From Jason Kidd, who entered the league in 1994, to Iverson and Nash, who entered the league in 1996, there was no post-80s generation.This is 2011."The Clippers must still be living in 2000, otherwise it would be difficult for them to make such a choice. When other teams are determined to forge ahead and pursue strong support, they are doing this kind of work."Bill Simmons sighed in the media.He thinks it is harder for the Los Angeles Clippers to win consecutive championships this season.Other commentators also think so, because the Clippers are really wayward! !At this time, the Clippers announced another heavy' signing!
