2 for 1 big deal is reached! The Nets are in the big game, the Nuggets kill two birds with one stone, the West is too curled

NBA free agent trading market has opened. Harden, Jabarry Smith Jr., Randall, Jaren Jackson Jr., Aldama, Portis and others have signed a fat contract with their old clubs. Finney Smith, Laravia, Russell, Schroeder, Looney, Connett, Daluo and other stars have changed their goals for a big contract, and the league structure is undergoing subtle changes. At the same time, the Nuggets and Nets quietly completed a 2-for-1 deal, which will have a far-reaching impact on the Western Conference pattern.

According to NBA famous reporter Shams, the Nuggets and the Nets completed a 2-for-1 deal. The specific content is as follows: The Nuggets sent Porter Jr. + the unprotected first-round pick in 2032 to the Nets and got the Nets' Cameron Johnson. The Nuggets are like a game of Zhenlong. The ex-coach Ma Long and former general manager Booth were dismissed at the same time, which is enough to show how difficult this game is to write. Even so, the Nuggets still "rejuvenated" without a special manager, using Porter Jr. as a chess piece to play this game of chess. Overall, this deal is in the interests of both teams and the players involved. The Nets are in the big game, and the Nuggets kill two birds with one stone. The West is too cursed.

Potter Jr. is the hero of the Nuggets' first championship in team history in 2023, but he is just an anti-aircraft turret with strong offense and weak defense, a typical double-edged sword! In the past season, Porter Jr. played 77 games for the Nuggets, averaging 18.2 points + 7 rebounds + 2.1 assists + 3.5 three-pointers, with a three-point shooting percentage of 39.5%. But in the playoffs, Porter Jr. suffered from shoulder injuries, averaging only 9.1 points + 5.5 rebounds + 1.7 three-pointers, and his three-point shooting percentage was only 34.3%. Porter Jr. has two years left in the contract, and he is one of the few assets that the Nuggets can use for trading. This is also the reason why the Nuggets are willing to take advantage of a future unprotected first-round pick to send Porter Jr. away. Porter Jr. changed from Tsian from the Nuggets to Mrs. Cow, but the Nets didn't mind at all. According to the famous NBA reporter Ramona, the Nets were excited about Porter Jr. and planned to keep him. According to our understanding of the Nets, they are likely to play a big game again, like the Bridge, Electric Fan, and Old Huang Zhong, fatten up first and then watch it. Maybe they can make a good difference when they change hands.

Compared with Porter Jr., Huang Zhong has better offensive and defensive stability. In the past season, Huang Zhong played 57 games for the Nets, averaging 18.8 points + 4.3 rebounds + 3.4 assists + 2.8 three-pointers, with a three-point shooting percentage of 39%. In the words of fans, if Huang Zhong had tied for Porter Jr. last season, the Thunder might not have been able to overcome the Nuggets' mark. More importantly, Old Huang Zhong is cheaper than Porter! Lao Huangzhong's contract is only 2 years and 43.04 million US dollars. After the deal was reached, the Nuggets received salary flexibility that they had not had in previous seasons! According to follow-up reports from the NBA famous reporter Shams, the Nuggets signed back the 2023 champion Bruce Brown with a one-year contract. In short, the Nuggets broke the whole thing and killed two birds with one stone, and exchanged Porter Jr. for Cameron Johnson and Brown, and it won!

There is no doubt that with the addition of Huang Zhong and Brown, Jokic has become more powerful, and the Nuggets have seen the possibility of returning to the ranks of top contenders! But then again, the West is too curly! The defending champion Thunder are young, strong and terrifying. They will be in the championship window for the next three years; the Rockets have also taken crazy arming to their teeth, and have finalized contracts for Adams, Van Jordan and Jabarri Smith Jr., and have also introduced Durant, Finney Smith and Capela. The heart to win the championship is well known to everyone! Therefore, even if the Nuggets have the world's number one Jokic, they still have to continue to arm themselves and continue to increase the depth of the lineup to compete with top Western teams such as the Thunder and Rockets. Fans, what do you think about this? Let me leave me a comment and discuss it.
