The Golden Invincible of Basketball
v3 Chapter 719: Paul application transaction
Butler greeted Tang Tian.
On the second day after their communication, related rumors broke out.
At the moment of the explosion, a dozen teams directly pounced on it.
That was Butler with the second defense and second team, and he had just finished his rookie contract.
The management of the Bulls lost their intelligence, but their IQ is still there!
After Tang Tian communicated with Demps, the Pelicans were also one of the teams interested in Butler.
But soon, many teams retreated.
Because the asking price of the Bulls is too high!
The returns they demand are either equal stars or super newcomers!
Taking the feedback from the Pelicans here, the Bulls want Jokic or one of Davis.
This is simply robbery!
Tang Tian also understood when he saw this, the Bulls management did not lose their IQ.
Because Butler is a restricted free agent, the Bulls can match any offer from other teams.
In other words, although Butler is a free agent, it is the same as having a contract, so the chips the Bulls ask for are like this.
After several rounds of negotiations, many teams have withdrawn.
The Pelicans also withdrew.
Davis and Jokic are non-selling items of the team, and the team cannot trade them for Butler.
Just as Butler ’s transaction negotiations continued, the free market had successively completed several signings.
Whiteside and the Heat have reached a two-year 20 million renewal contract, of which the second year is a player option.
Whiteside scored two triple-doubles last season, the first time he scored against the Heat, which impressed Pat Riley.
The Heat renewed Dragic for 5 years at 90 million.
The trio of Dragic, Wade and Whiteside, Riley's operation during the offseason shows the name of the gods.
The Grizzlies traded Lance Stephenson from the Hornets.
The Mavericks signed Tobias Harris for 64 million in 4 years. This is a contract close to the top salary.
...
After these signings, the Heat and Mavericks' strength has been significantly enhanced.
It was at this time that Butler's affairs had new results.
After the Mavericks improved their trading chips, according to all the adjectives reported by oj, the two sides are very close to reaching a deal. It seems only a matter of time before Butler joins Dallas.
This news worried other players in the West for a while.
The Mavericks now have the lineup of Embiid + Nowitzki + Harris. If there is another Butler, this reconstruction will be completed in a flash.
Counting the rockets that just got Cousins, the western part is directly into the military competition!
One wave after another has risen.
Just when most people focused on Butler, the Clippers broke the news again and again.
Griffin and team equipment manager Matthias Testi fought in the cafe, the latter suffered a facial injury, while the former suffered a fractured hand bone and is expected to be absent for 2 ~ months!
The news is incredible.
The equipment manager is a team member who manages the equipment. They are responsible for the management of the players 'shoes and jerseys, and even some of them are also responsible for the players' part of the diet.
Because of the long contact time with the players, the relationship between them and the players is very good.
However, Griffin fought with the equipment manager, and also truce himself for 2 ~ months.
This sao operation is suffocating.
Although it is the off-season, Griffin will not come back until mid-October if the recovery is not good. At that time, the preseason games have begun.
This will definitely have a big impact on the Clippers' new season prospects.
However, this is not the most explosive point.
Griffin's thing, at most, is to become a fan after dinner.
What really caused a new wave of shock in the league was that, two days after this incident, Paul submitted a trade application to the Clippers!
First, Bosh changed Cousins, then the Bulls wanted to trade Butler, and now Paul has to apply for a trade.
Tang Tian discovered that history is about to change dramatically this summer.
To know the history he knew, Paul left only in the summer of 17 years, and is now directly ahead of him by two years!
And the first person in history to actively submit a trade application to the team was Paul George.
Although they are all called Paul, they are very different!
Paul is the active first point guard in the league, and his trade application is more shocking than the Bulls had to trade Butler.
And this time, more than half of the league's teams were looking for the Clippers for the first time.
But the Clippers never responded.
This is the first time this superstar has asked the team to trade for themselves. The Clippers management is certainly a bit caught off guard now.
Demps also found Tang Tian.
"Are we going to try a quotation?"
Demps asked more questions than before, the other party was Paul after all!
Paul + Tang Tian + Davis, even if Jokic is the most popular team to win the title properly!
"I don't recommend that."
Tang Tian said his thoughts.
Not to mention if the Pelicans can exchange for Paul, it wo n’t benefit the Pelicans in return.
The Pelicans' current lineup, he controls, and Jokic assists the organization, so that the distribution of ball rights is reasonable.
Paul is the kind of guard who needs to hold the ball for a long time. If he comes, Tang Tian will definitely turn to the ball, which will do more harm than good to the Pelicans.
Not to mention the trade issues that the Paul team needs to face next season.
Three top salaries plus two ten million contracts, you have to consider Jokic's renewal, the Pelicans can not be dismissed after two years.
"... We don't need to form the Big Three, our players will grow strong enough next season."
Tang Tian finally talked about his own ideas, starting with the Celtics Big Three, and going to the Heat ’s brother basketball, the league has a bad influence.
This is one of the reasons why he has a crush on Curry and Thompson. They led the team by their own growth.
The current Pelicans, he was a role player when he came, Davis and Jokic were chosen by the Pelicans themselves, which is very different from the giants.
Temples agreed.
Jokic last season was just a rookie ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ but has established a good tacit understanding with the team, this season plus Stevens into the main, the Pelicans really have the opportunity to last season's Warriors That blockbuster.
Or, to a higher level.
Rumors related to Paul continue to spread, it seems that this summer the team will watch a good show throughout the summer.
At this moment, Tang Tian received a call from Butler again.
"I'm going to the Mavericks. I'm in a division with you!"
There was no news from the outside world, but Butler told Tang Tian the news for the first time.
Although it has been known from previous rumors that the Bulls and Mavericks are close to reaching a deal, he was still a little shocked to hear the news.
After the Mavericks cut off consecutively during the offseason, this year it was a direct wave.
Butler + Harris + Nowitzki + Embiid, and then a suitable point guard, this lineup is really taking off.
