NBA: Trading Westbrook at the beginning shocked Lao Zhan

Hearing Jessica's words, Lin Fei immediately regained his spirits, and couldn't help but feel a little nervous, so he quickly asked, "What's the problem?"

"You say it!"

Jessica quickly said, "That's right, Mr. Lin Fei!"

"I found that our team will have a large number of player losses after the end of the season. Except for James, Big Eyebrow, Brogdon, Hield and Reddish and Rivers, most of the rest of the players are one-year players. The contract expires at the end of the season!"

"According to the current situation, most of these players have performed well in our team. After the end of the season, it may cause competition from other teams! We may lose most of our players by then."

"So, I think, Mr. Lin Fei, is it necessary for us to make some moves before the trade deadline."

After listening to Jessica's words, Lin Fei slapped his thigh suddenly. Jessica's words really reminded Lin Fei!

But this matter is small and big, and if the Lakers win the championship this year, then many players will come and vote!

However, too many expiring contracts is a big hidden danger after all, Lin Fei still needs to take some actions to prevent accidents from happening.

After a pause, Lin Fei said to Jessica: "Jessica, you did a good job, this really reminded me!"

"However, this matter can be said to be big or small. If we want to operate, we must first ensure that after the transaction is completed, the immediate combat power of this season will not decline sharply. Second, we must ensure that we can exchange for A long-term potential contract, such an operation is relatively difficult."

After finishing speaking, Lin Fei pondered for a moment, then continued.

"How about it, Jessica, you go find out the recent trading intentions of the teams in the league, and then report to me!"

Hearing Lin Fei's answer, Jessica nodded in agreement: "Okay, Mr. Lin Fei, I understand!"

After speaking, Jessica hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Fei in the office touched his nose and began to think about what Jessica said.

What Jessica said is indeed a hidden danger, but just like what Lin Fei said, it is very difficult to deal with this hidden danger!
In order to deal with this hidden danger, Lin Fei began to fumble and recall the transactions that happened in his previous life.

In Lin Fei's impression, in his previous life, there were mainly two teams that announced the rebuilding, one was the Pacers, and the other was the Blazers!
In the previous life, the Pacers almost put the entire team on the shelves and completed a big deal with the Kings!
In the previous life, the Trail Blazers even sent out the second-in-command CJ McCollum, and also sent out many capable players in exchange for young players and draft picks!
pioneer.
hiss.
pioneer! ! !
Thinking of the pioneers, Lin Fei was shocked and slapped his thigh violently!
Lin Fei remembered a deal with the Blazers in his previous life, the deal with the Clippers!

The details of the transaction are: The Clippers sent Eric Bledsoe, Winslow, Keane Johnson and a second-round pick in exchange for Covington and Norman Powell of the Trail Blazers!
Covington and Norman Powell are relatively powerful wing players, proficient in defense and three-pointers, and they are about the same age. They can be regarded as relatively good immediate combat power. The right to play the ball and traded the two of them away.

The players sent by the Clippers are decent, but not as good as Covington and Norman Powell, and the trading value of the second-round pick sent by the Clippers is not that high.

Therefore, after this transaction happened in the current world, many Blazers fans were surprised, and they all complained that the Blazers management was out of their minds.

On the other side of the Clippers fans, there were loud gongs, drums and firecrackers, celebrating the arrival of Covington and Norman Powell!

This deal is also known as a god-level deal. It can be said that the Clippers simply robbed Covington and Norman Powell from the Blazers!
And the reason why Lin Fei thought of this deal was because of Norman Powell and Covington of the Trail Blazers!
First of all, Norman Powell and Covington are good, with 3 and D, which is more in line with the Lakers' style of play.

Moreover, Norman Powell's contract period is also relatively long, and if Covington is traded, the Lakers still have the bird rights. In this case, the Lakers will not worry about renewing the contract next season.

Another point is that according to the contract amount of Covington and Norman Powell, the Lakers will probably send 4 players to trade with the Trail Blazers, and the 4 potential strikers with a basic salary will definitely be more attractive to the Blazers than the Clippers. Big chips!
By the way, 2 official contract Xianer lineup spots will be freed up for Cousins ​​and Bembry.

Wow, it's perfect!

After thinking through all this, Lin Fei couldn't help but swear.

If this deal can be done, it would be perfect for the Lakers. Lin Fei quickly took out his phone and called Jessica.

After dialing, Lin Fei asked anxiously: "Jessica, hurry up, tell me what deals the Blazers have made recently?"

Jessica was a little confused, but when she heard Lin Fei's urgent voice, she immediately investigated the information and said to Lin Fei.

: "Mr. Lin Fei, the most important trade for the Blazers recently is to send CJ McCollum, Larry Nance Jr., Tony Snell! From the Pelicans got Josh Hart, Thomas Sarah Toransky, Nick Alexander-Walker, Didi Luzada, 2022 protected first round pick, two second round picks!"

Hearing this, Lin Fei immediately regained his spirits, and hurriedly asked: "The Trail Blazers haven't traded Covington and Norman Powell yet! Are they?"

Hearing Lin Fei's words, Jessica quickly looked at the information, nodded after confirming, and replied: "Yes, Norman Powell and Covington are still on the team."

Hearing this, Lin Fei laughed happily, and quickly said: "Quick, Jessica, send me the phone number of the general manager of the Blazers!"

After finishing speaking, although Jessica didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Lin Fei's gourd, she quickly nodded in agreement, and sent Lin Fei the pioneer's phone number.

Without further ado, since Lin Fei knew that Covington and Norman Powell were still in the Trail Blazers, he had to attack immediately, or it would be bad for the Clippers to take the lead!
Thinking of this, Lin Fei geared up and began to think of the specific offer.

According to Lin Fei's prediction, Lin Fei will pay 4 places to balance the contracts of Covington and Norman Powell. Such personnel changes are not insignificant!

After thinking about it, Lin Fei decided to go to Vogel to discuss what bargaining chip he would pay!
