Today, according to NBA reporter Woj, the Spurs and Nuggets in the West made a three-way deal with the Eastern Conference's Green Army Celtics, involving four players.
Spurs: Sending away Brin Forbes and getting Juan Erlands (Celtics)
Nuggets: Send Pol Ball and PJ Dozier away for Brin Forbes (Spurs)
Celtics: Sending Juan El Landers away to get Pol Ball and PJ Dozil (Nuggets)
Looking at the deal, it may be a little strange to everyone, that Pol Pohl was not traded to the Pistons by the Nuggets at the beginning of the month, in exchange for McGregorut and a second-round pick, why was he suddenly sent to the Celtics?
Shortly after the Nuggets traded with the Pistons, they received a call from the Pistons general manager, Pol Ball was accused of blowing the deal because he did not pass the Pistons' medical examination, but the Nuggets sent Pol away Pol's heart was very firm, so he was sent to the Celtics.
Brin Forbes, 28, has played in 35 games for the Spurs this season, averaging 16.8 minutes per game, scoring 8.8 points, 1.6 rebounds, 1 assist, 0.4 steals and 0.1 blocks, shooting 43 percent from the field, 30 percent from three-point range and 100 percent from the free throw line. He is the Spurs' famous "bench bandit". Considering that Murray is temporarily unable to return, Forbes' arrival can provide the Nuggets with firepower at the backcourt bench.
Juan Erlands, 26, has played in 17 games for the Celtics this season, averaging 5.5 minutes per game, scoring 1 point, 1.5 rebounds, 0.2 assists, 0.2 steals and 0.1 blocks, shooting just 20 percent from the field and 16 percent from three-point range. But considering he's still young, he averaged 12.9 points and 7.3 rebounds per game in the Timberwolves' peak season, shooting 49 percent from the field and 42 percent from three-point range.
Spurs veteran coach Popovich is the best at tuning the center, look at the glory created by the Admiral and the Stone Buddha, see even Dior can be tuned by Popovich and so on is very good, so in the future Ellands will definitely be reused, the data will definitely create a new high!
PJ Dozier, 25, has played in 14 games for the Nuggets this season, averaging 17.9 points per game, contributing 4.4 points, 3.7 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 0.6 steals and 0.3 blocks, shooting 39 percent from the field and just 19 percent from three-point range. The Nuggets, who switched from the Celtics in the 18-19 season, have now been sent back to the Green Army, and because Dozil suffered a serious injury to the cruciate ligament tear in his knee in December last year, the Green Army's move is all about avoiding taxes.
Pol Poir, who is only 22 years old this year, has played in 11 games for the Nuggets, averaging 5.7 minutes per game, contributing 2.4 points, 1.5 rebounds, 0.4 assists, 0.2 steals and 0.1 blocks, shooting 56% from the field. Pol wins in his youth, to the Green Army can only be a water dispenser caretaker, the inside line already has two Williams and Horford, basically no place, but considering that the Celtics sent away the when the era of Ellands in exchange for reimbursement players, it is clear that the Green Army has planned to give up this season, if so, maybe Pol Pohr will be focused on training.
The three-way deal is a win-win-win deal, with the Spurs reinforcing the interior players, the Nuggets reinforcing the defenders, and the Green Army saving luxury taxes.
