A number of teams completed the transaction - the biggest hit is whether Harden will go, this year's trading day is still relatively lively, the operation of the Los Angeles Lakers is very talented, the Spurs are also actively seeking trades, the following small editor to give you a few interesting transactions.
1. Harden and Simmons are swapped
The Nets traded James Harden and Paul Millsap to the 76ers in exchange for Ben Simmons, Seth Curry, Andre Drummond and two first-rounders. Among them, these two first-round picks are the first-round unprotected picks for 2022, but the Nets have the right to change this first-round pick to 2023 and 2027 protected first-round picks, the protection condition is to protect the 1-8 pick for two consecutive years, if it is still protected in 2029, it will be converted into two second-round picks and $2 million in cash.
Ben Simmons was traded to the Nets
Before the end of the trading day, Kevin Durant praised the trade Harden on INS. Subsequently, the news of Harden joining Philadelphia partner Embiid did not go away, and the Nets this season were very struggling, and Durant's record declined all the way after the suspension due to injury, and the former first place in the East fell to eighth place in the East. The recent nine-game losing streak has pushed them to the forefront.
Harden teamed up with Embiid
Kyrie Owen refused to be vaccinated, was banned from playing in New York City, and he could only play part-time due to home restrictions; James Harden suffered a hamstring injury and has not played three consecutive games, in addition, his injury to the team is invisible, there is news that Harden will jump out of the contract in the offseason, join the 76ers as a free agent, and the management will choose to trade in order to maximize profits.
2. Porzingis is traded
The Lone Ranger sent Kristaps Porzingis and second-round picks in exchange for wizards Dinwiddie and Davis Bertans. Such a deal may be unexpected, the live transaction can be said to be completed by the whistle, and the willingness of the Lone Ranger to send Porzingis is far less than expected.
The Lone Ranger sends Porzingis away
League sources said: The Lone Ranger has been trying to give Porzingis a big contract before this year's deadline, and even spent the last day looking for his next home. It is true that Boshin has played well this season, but his big unexpired contract and repeated knee injuries have become the main factors in his departure from Dallas, and the management does not want to waste Doncic's career in vain, matching the best squad to impact the championship.
3. The sun welcomes back Craig
The biggest winner of last season's finals was Craig, who won either side. Craig joined the Pacers in the offseason, and under Carlisle's leadership the team announced a rebuild, and the highly functional Craig was naturally a sought-after commodity.
Craig returned to the sun
The Pacers traded Tory Craig to the Suns for Jaylen Smith and a future second-round pick. The Suns have too many reserves of center personnel, and the pre-season team issued a statement: it will not execute Next Season's Jaylen Smith contract, and after the season, he will become a free agent, but in the only few appearances, he still showed good strength and fully proved the value of his lotto show.
4. Spurs rebuild
The Spurs have been very active on the trade day of the season, first, the team sent Thaddeus Young, Drew Eubanks, the 2022 second-round draft picks from the Pistons, raptors Dragic, and the 2022 protected lotto draft picks; second, the Celtics sent Josh Richardson, Romeo Langford, the 2028 first-round pick swap and a 2022 protected first-round pick, including the 2022 first-round pick with a 1-4 pick; Derrick White sent to the Celtics.
Spurs traded Derrick White
The team's operation of sending Derrick White away undoubtedly hurt the hearts of many fans, and defender Dezhang Taimurri was also full of doubts about the deal. White has worked hard in the Spurs, playing in 49 games this season, averaging 14.4 points, 3.5 rebounds, 5.6 assists, 1.78 steals and 0.86 blocks per game, it is undeniable that the data does not reflect White's importance to the defensive end of the team, and perhaps the departure of Xiao Bai also announces the beginning of the Spurs' rebuilding.
5. The Lakers have no deals
Before the deal deadline, the Lakers had actively discussed the possibility of getting Redish. First of all, he played for the Hawks and averaged 11.9 points, 2.5 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 1 steal per game, which was also the motivation for the Knicks to promote the trade; secondly, Knicks head coach Thibodeau strongly opposed the team trade, after joining the Knicks, Reddish averaged 9 minutes per game, directly by the head coach DNP; finally, the two sides collapsed.
Lakers general manager Pelinka silently ended the season's trading day, saying in an interview that the team will focus on buying out the market, yes, or you are the best.
