Chapter 103 Action during the off-season

The NBA 2010-2011 season has ended, and the Dallas Mavericks have been successfully crowned. The day after the Mavericks won the championship parade was the draft, and then on July 1, which was the beginning of the NBA summer league, and on this day, the free market opened.

The free market in 2011 is not as strong as the free market in 2010, and almost no big-name stars can be seen, but in this way, there are also some good players to choose from for teams that want to strengthen, such as Golan Dragic, the best sixth man last season, and this award Item's powerful competitors Jamal Crawford of the Eagles, as well as the Mavericks' fronter Caron Butler, center Tyson Chandler, and Neene Hilaryo, JR Smith, the Pistons' Little Prince Tychon Prince, the Grizzlies' big heart Sean Battier, Huang David West of the Bee, Andre Kirilianko of the Jazz, etc.

July 1 finally came. On this day, the players who can become free agents have free agents, and the big hands of each team are also extended to these free agents.

The first to move was the Indiana Pacers, who successfully picked the Hornets' all-star power forward David West in the free market.

After that, the Clippers were not willing to be lonely. They stretched out their hand and quickly took Karon Butler and renewed their contract with team center DeAndrew Jordan.

On the same day, the Suns announced the renewal of the contract with the team's small striker Grant Hill. Due to the team's deal last season, Hill became a substitute, but it was indeed a very important member on the bench. The team did not hesitate to renew the contract with him. At the same time, it announced the execution of the contract with Zhao Yue. , implement the team option and renew Zhao Yue's contract for 3.3 million US dollars a year.

The Heat, who returned from the finals last season, is determined to continue their efforts in the new season. They took a fancy to Sean Battier and successfully captured it.

At the same time, other teams in the league are strengthening one after another. Of course, the Suns are no exception. Last season, the Suns have been occupying the first place in the league since the regular season. It can be said that they are very likely to win the championship, but in the playoffs, due to the successive injuries of Nash and Carter, the ball The team's bench was not thick enough, so it was eliminated in the second round of the playoffs. In the new season, the Suns management began to strengthen without changing the original main players.

Renewing the contract with Hill and Zhao Yue is only the first step. The next thing the Suns need to do is to strengthen the inside line. Last season, after the deal with Anthony, Zhao Yue and Qian Ning Fry are the only insiders of the Suns, and no one can replace them. Now there seems to be no inside players in the free market that meet the Suns' requirements. In fact, several people are very suitable, such as Tyson Chandler, Massin Gotat, Yi Jianlian and Carl Landry. In the end, the Suns management chose Gotat and Yi Jianlian. Gotatat's attack is good, and defense is stronger than attack, which is very in line with the requirements of the Suns to strengthen defense in the new season. In addition, Yi Jianlian is not only tall and has long arms, but the key to know that the soft touch of Chinese players marks that he has a good three-pointer. In addition, Markif Morris, the 13 rookie selected by the team in the draft, is also a good player.
