Chapter 976 Crazy Trading Strikes (Part 2)

On September 3, just after Ji Feng came out of the training hall, he received a call from James directly!

"Ah?! That's it, I see." Ji Feng, who put down the phone, was still a little uneasy, because on the phone, James told him that after the Nuggets traded Camby, they also completed the other early yesterday morning. A big deal that was enough to change the league structure, and to some extent, this deal can understand their operation of letting Camby go.

The Nuggets have two guns in the backcourt, the 'answer' for one of the four quarterbacks, Allen Iverson and the Pistons' brain, the 2004 FMVP winner, the league's most underrated point guard superstar, Chauncey Billups, each other Change home!

James got inside information from the league. Although the deal has not been officially announced, it is only the two teams discussing the details of the deal. Because Chauncey is not equivalent to the 'answer', the Pistons still need something. , but the main body of the transaction has been determined. The two top point guards in the league are destined to exchange owners!

Ji Feng opened the webpage, and sure enough, the information of this earthquake-level transaction is already flooded on the Internet, and the major sports media in the world have made follow-up reports on this transaction.

At noon that day, ESPN expert Stephen-A-Smith revealed in a column that the Pistons and the Nuggets had basically reached an agreement. The Nuggets sent Iverson in exchange for Billups, McDyess and Saab from the Pistons. !

The earthquake finally detonated!

On the second day, the NBA officially issued an announcement confirming that the deal had been passed and the deal was officially concluded!

"The Nuggets and Pistons reached a blockbuster deal, and Iverson Billups swapped owners!" - Tencent Sports.

"Who's the beneficiary? Pistons, a big bet for the Nuggets!" - Sports Illustrated.

"The hero is too late?! Iverson was traded again after two years!" - ESPN.

"Chance or Fall? Iverson in Motor City!" —TNT.

...

As the most exciting trade of the offseason this summer, the world's major media quickly made reports on the trade, and various basketball experts and commentators made comments on the trade.

The deal also instantly became the hottest topic among fans after dinner.

Many fans expressed their views online:

"The Nuggets are really out of money. They are in a hurry to clean up the AI. It depends on Anthony and the old Billups and McDyess. The new season is a round tour, so I will put my words here!"

"Do it! Trade my answer again! You are finished for the Nuggets, and you will be black all your life!"

"The Nuggets can't have a new season. Camby and Billups left together. It's a bit of a mess. Who is it? Anthony, the unwanted guy who was sanctioned by Ji Feng?"

"I don't think this deal is a bad thing for the Pistons. Anyway, it can't win if you keep it. Just rebuild it. It's just a pity Iverson. I hope he can have a chance to win the championship."

"I have a different opinion. The Nuggets won't necessarily lose by getting Billups and McDyess. Although Anthony and Iverson can score, they can't cooperate. Neither of them can organize, and their defense is also a colander. , but Billups is different, big heart, can defend, can attack, the most important thing is first-class organizational ability, absolutely not lose to Paul Deron, as long as there is a chemical reaction, the Nuggets may rise in the new season!"

...

It is not difficult to understand the popularity. At this time, Iverson's popularity is still hot. He has a lot of supporters all over the world. His trade will naturally cause a sensation. Everyone is very sorry, after all, the Nuggets have played more pleasing balls in the past two seasons.

Moreover, this transaction also involves the Pistons, the most stable strong team in the league in recent years. As we all know, they won the championship and reached the finals in a row by relying on the offensive and defensive combination of the insider and Chauncey. , and chose to trade Billups, leaving only three of the Pistons' five tigers. In addition, although they got Iverson, they traded out McDyess in the inside line. In the new season, they will only have Rashi in the inside line. De Wallace is a stable point. On the whole, the strength of the pistons has been weakened by more than 10%.

With the unknown outcome of Iverson's integration into the team, no one knows what the Pistons can do in the new season.

But ESPN's commentator said bluntly: "The departure of Billups means that the era of the Pistons has officially left, and they are going to rebuild."

And many media also maintain the same view as ESPN. They are not optimistic about this deal. The only benefit of this deal for the Pistons may be that Iverson has only one year left on his contract, which will give them a very good deal in the summer of 2009. Big cap space to try and dig a big fish.

As for the Nuggets, Ji Feng also guessed the reason. In December 2006, Iverson was traded by the 76ers to the Nuggets, and formed a "golden double gun" with Anthony. The end of the season and the playoffs finally made the Nuggets executives lose their patience. In fact, he is not compatible with Anthony. Compared with the young Anthony, Iverson can only be traded.

In this regard, Ji Feng is still a little sighed. There are times when heroes are late. How many stars can end up in one team. This is this league.

As for this deal, Ji Feng felt that the Nuggets must have made a profit. They are not lacking in offense, but in organization and defense. Therefore, using Iverson, who has a good attack, in exchange for Billups, who has a better organization, is more capable. Playing the characteristics of their team, George Karl's technical and tactical tactics are also very suitable for Billups' play, and a blue-collar and an 18+9 center have been added inside, and the strength has increased unabated.

Coupled with their additions of Dengtai Jones, Balkman and Diawara, the Nuggets will be strong this season.

"This may be our main opponent in the new season." Ji Feng said to Kobe.

Kobe also agreed. After all, he is very familiar with Billups, but they are still confident in winning the championship, because they are strong enough!

After this transaction, the league has no major transactions, and the traditional Western powers have not made another move. James, Bosh and other big fish who were rumored to be likely to leave before have no real movement, and the waters of the league have calmed down again. , As the preseason starts getting closer and closer, the teams have also assembled to start preparing for the new season's preseason.

And September 8th!

Ji Feng rushed to the Staples physical examination center early in the morning. This was the day their team reported. The players came back one after another to receive physical examinations.

In fact, the training camp has already started in mid-August. Of course, it must be a world of free agents and undrafted players at the beginning. After all, according to the official NBA regulations, September 29 this year is the reporting day for players.

But recently the players have all returned to Los Angeles one after another, and the only ones who haven't reported on it are Ji Feng, Kobe, and Gasol, the three finalists in the Olympic Games. Like Sun Yue, he has been training in Los Angeles. It's been ten days.
