Once again? George + 3 sign for sign 8, slutty, can you still trade like this

The latest news from the new NBA reporter Ary, the Nets are willing to hand over the top picks through various methods, and have completed the reconstruction.

According to an insider of the league, the Nets want to hand over the third pick in the hands of the latter by packaging their assets. If the Sixers don't really like the back-end draft pick, they're willing to take George's junk contract.

Hmm? In just one year, George has become the spokesperson for the garbage contract. Last summer, he signed a four-year, 212 million max salary contract with 76ers. In the next three years, he still had an average annual salary of about 54 million yuan per year.

Insiders News Nets have the most four first-round picks in the league this year. They are willing to package all of these draft picks in order to get a rebuilding rookie, but if it includes swallowing George's contract service, there is no need to make so many draft picks.

The Knicks' self-media has written a trading plan, and the Nets can sell Cameron Johnson + Clarkston + No. 8 for George + No. 3.

However, this plan was also refuted by another Nets' big v, believing that the Nets would only trade like this unless they had too much money. If they swallowed George, they would have two bonus contracts. The Nets might not even need to make any players to trade.

Indeed, if the 76ers trade George with other teams, basically each team must have 1-2 million contracts to match the deal, but the Nets are the only team in the league with 33 million naked space this season. They only need to handle a little draft pick and contract and even free up 65 million, which can completely swallow George's contract directly.

This is also why they dared to swallow George alive. After all, they have all been rebuilt and the space is free of use. In fact, the current 30 teams in the league may only dare to look at George's 162.4 million contract.

What do you think is the psychological price for the Nets to swallow George's contract?

It is not 1-2 days since Philadelphia wants to get rid of Paul George. They have considered taking action against the 9-time All-Star small forward as early as this year's trading deadline.

But because his salary is too high, it is impossible for a strong team to absorb his contract. This also makes the transaction very complicated. Team reporter Keith Pompey once said, "Embidade and George 76ers want to sell, but the probability of achieving it is very low, because the operation is too difficult."

The Nets are suddenly willing to come out and take over this time, and it is also considered a surprise attack from the sky. Suddenly, they thought that the Nets traded Harden with Philadelphia three and a half years ago, and they were also willing to swallow Simmons' contract for the remaining three years.

However, the premise is that 76ers trade them for 2 first-round picks.

The Nets also loyally helped the 76ers pay Simmons' contract with more than 100 million in the remaining three years. It was not until the middle of this season that he bought out and let him compete for the championship in the Clippers.

1 year George's contract handling method is almost the same as Simmons. I remembered that an anonymous 76ers executive talked about George before. "We know that his four-year contract cannot be at its peak every year, and there will definitely be a bad time, but I just didn't expect it to start from the first day."

By the way, the Nets should be determined to complete the reconstruction this year. If they cannot trade in the top five drafts, they also hope to exchange for a 9-12 first round pick by selling high-quality players in the team like Cameron Johnson. I wonder if the draft will eventually become the Nets' purchasing rookie moment...
