The Los Angeles Clippers have gradually improved their fighting power after acquiring James Harden, although they are currently in fourth place in the West with a 23-13 record, but because of the good form of many players such as Leonard, Harden, and Paul George, this team has become the favorite to win the championship this season. However, the Clippers are not in a good mood, and PJ Tucker, who was traded to Los Angeles with Harden, has been kicked out of the rotation because he is not trusted by head coach Tyronn Lue, and has publicly expressed his desire to leave Los Angeles and regain the opportunity to play. Although he is 38 years old, Tucker still has no shortage of players in the league because of his tenacious style of play and strong defensive ability, especially his old club Bucks, 76ers, and Heat, all three teams are interested in getting him again, so as to strengthen the strength of the defensive end.
Recently, the American media "fadeaway world" suggested that the Clippers, Rockets, and Heat three teams negotiate around a three-way deal, if the negotiations go well, top scorer Dunroe is expected to go to Los Angeles to assist James Harden, Leonard and Paul George, Rockets general manager Stone is expected to use the residual value of veteran Jeff Green to strengthen, the specific transaction plan is:
1. The Clippers sent PJ Tucker + Nashaun Hyland to get Duncan Robinson;
2. The Rockets sent Jeff Green to get Nashawn Hyland + Thomas Bryant + Josh Richardson;
3. The Heat sent Duncan Robinson + Thomas Bryant + Josh Richardson to get PJ Tucker + Jeff Green.
Although the Clippers are the favorites to win the championship, they have not yet reached the point where they are bound to win the championship, and the defending champion Nuggets, the Timberwolves with the Big Three, and the Celtics, who are at the top of the league, are all eyeing the championship. Except for Leonard, the rest of the Clippers have no championship experience, so the road to the championship will be full of thorns. Owner Ballmer said in an interview with the Los Angeles Times that he wants to taste the championship this season, and he is willing to strengthen it at all costs. Duncan Robinson, while not the best player, is the best player for the Clippers, averaging 29In 1 minute of appearance, contribute 142 points 26 rebounds 32 assists and 42 three-point shooting2%。He has a masterful three-point shooter, scoring almost entirely outside the three-point line, and shooting catch-and-shoot jumpers is impressive, especially in open positions, where he rarely misses the basketball.
Dunroe can get more open jumpers in Los Angeles, and he can also help the Clippers' stars open up space on the court. The Heat want to get rid of Dunroe's big contract worth $58 million for the next three years because they have the same attribute player Herro, Tucker is a veteran of the Heat, and he knows the Miami environment very well, and his departure made Jimmy Butler angry, and if he can return smoothly, it is expected that the two sides will be able to release their previous suspicions. Jeff Green, who has a wealth of major tournament experience, was a key contributor to the Nuggets' championship last season and has played an extremely important role for the Rockets this season. The addition of these two veterans will significantly improve the overall strength of the Heat team.
The Rockets have been injured recently, Dillon Brooks and Tari Eason have missed many games due to injuries, VanVleet, Shin Jing, Jabari Smith Jr., Jalen Green and many other main players have been playing for a long time, and their health is also worrying, so Rockets general manager Rafael Stone wants to add more instant players, and Richardson, Hyland, and Bryant all have good strength.
