In this NBA offseason, although several superstars still did not move, they also gave birth to many jaw-dropping transactions. The Hawks exchanged Gallinari plus four first-round picks for Murray, which may surprise many people, and the Hawks also hope to let Murray and Trae Young form a backcourt double gun to go further in the playoffs of the new season. The Hawks and Spurs have recently gotten out a new deal, this time a three-way deal involving the Spurs, Hawks and Rockets.
Recently, the US media proposed a three-way deal possibility, the specific plan for the Rockets to send Gordon, Nuwaba and the 2023 first-round draft picks from the Bucks, to get Collins; Spurs sent Peltel to Johnson, Nuwaba and the 2023 first-round picks; The Hawks sent Collins and Johnson to Gordon and Peltel. This transaction can be said to be a very good tripartite transaction for the three parties, and the following is a brief analysis.
First of all, the Rockets, Nouaba played in 46 games for the Rockets last season, averaging 5.1 points and 3.3 rebounds per game, but the Rockets currently have a lot of potential rookies in the 1-2 position, and they need to be replenished on the front line with the intention of rebuilding, so Nuwaba will inevitably become a marginal person next season, and cleaning up this contract is very worthwhile for the Rockets, and Gordon is also a player in this position, and Gordon's recent state is also unstable.
Collins' addition can effectively fill the Rockets' current lineup vacancy, last season, Collins represented the Hawks in 54 games, averaging 16.2 points, 7.8 rebounds and 1.8 assists per game, shooting 52.6% from the field and shooting 36.4% from three-point range, the data is excellent, but Collins and Trae Young in last season rumors of discord and intensified, and finally the team management had to choose between the two and decided to send Collins away.
The Spurs side has a very clear goal, after sending away potential stars such as Xiao Ka and Murray in recent years, there is basically no rebuilding cornerstone in the team, and the team's goal may be to swing in the next season and strive to get a good signing in 2023. It is reported that the 2023 draft has a very strong supernova, and the Spurs may want to re-enter the same path as Duncan.
Johnson is only 20 years old this year, although he has not yet shown his ability, but there is a lot of room for training, last season for the Hawks in 22 games, but the data is mediocre. The Spurs can slowly cultivate the right hand to transform them into future supernovas. At the same time, Nuwaba's defensive ability is also very outstanding, and on the way to rebuilding in the future, these players may become important puzzle pieces for the team, and of course, may also become chips for trade.
For the Hawks, it is very important to clean up the instability factors left behind, sending Collins can do this, the goal of introducing Murray is obvious, is to correct Trae Young, then collins' importance is further weakened, and leaving the team is also his best personal choice at present. Among the players brought in, Gordon is experienced and has a good three-point ability, especially his tenacious fighting spirit in the playoffs, which can bring a lot of things to the young team of the Hawks.
And Peltel is a rare strategic center in the league, he is 2.16 meters tall, can play both center and big front, the importance of this player in the system of double guard is self-evident, the Eagles hope to get him is not to make it a bargaining chip, but to use this instant power to help the team go further in the playoffs.
