As the trade deadline approaches, teams in the league are accelerating their signings, and some teams have already made deals.
To this end, the US media "hoopshabit" also supported the Atlantic Division of the league's "strongest division", giving each of the 5 teams in the division a reinforcement goal.
The Nets should trade to get back the old players, and the Raptors can take over rocket Wood through a trade.
Raptors: Wood
After a slump at the beginning of the season, the Raptors have picked up significantly and are now in eighth place in the East.
According to Marc Stein, the Raptors are interested in reinforcing the interior, and Spurs center Peltel is currently the team's reinforcement target.
To this end, the US media believes that the Raptors can fully pursue Wood, during the time of playing for the Rockets, Wood's performance is remarkable, averaging 19.1 points, 9.8 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1 block per game, and his contract is very friendly.
Green Army: Forbes
The Green Army is currently in a terrible position, only tenth in the East, and there have been rumors of trades from the team over the past period of time.
Given the Green Army's poor outside-line projection performance, Forbes will be a reasonable reinforcement target, with the Green Army shooting just 33.9 percent from three-point range this season, ranking 22nd in the league but 13th in the league in terms of number of shots.
Forbes has averaged 4.2 three-pointers per game this season and is shooting 41.2 percent, and his current role with the Spurs is modest, averaging the second-lowest percentage of his career, and his friendly contract, making it a low-risk, high-reward reinforcement option for the Green Army.
Nets: Temple
According to the Nets' current depth, the team does not need to complete the trade reinforcement, and the team does not have many chips that can be used for trade.
But Temple's low trading goal is fully worth the Nets' consideration, and Temple's salary this season is only $4.9 million, which will not bring trade difficulties to the Nets.
Compared to the low contract, Temple is very efficient at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, he is a stable two-way player, can provide a solid defense and good projection, completely worth the Nets bet.
76ers: Halliburton
According to multiple reports, the Kings are very eager to get Ben Simmons, and have discussed with Philadelphia about Fox trading Ben Simmons, but the Philadelphia side refused.
But before "The Athletic" revealed that the Kings were willing to send Fox and Haliburton away in a suitable deal, and trading Ben Simmons was undoubtedly a suitable deal.
Then Philadelphia is better than getting Fox, betting on Haliburton, although the team already has a good defender, but Haliburton is more worth looking forward to, he has the projection and organization skills that the team needs, and he is very young.
Knicks: Turner
The Knicks are in trouble this season, and the team needs to build up as much as possible to hope for a place in the competitive Eastern Conference playoffs.
According to SNY's Ian Begle, the Knicks are interested in getting Turner within the Knicks, and this line of thinking is clearly in line with the Knicks' reinforcement needs.
Turner is a player who fits Thibodeau's defensive philosophy, while averaging 12.7 points per game and shooting 35 percent from three-point range, his addition will further enhance the Knicks' frontcourt depth.
