This season, the Boston Celtics are second in the East, and although there were many instability factors at the beginning of the season, the team is now on track, among which the outstanding team second-in-command Brown, has made a lot of contributions. And Brown will enter the final year of a 4-year $106 million contract next year, after the Celtics offered Brown a 4-year $165 million contract extension, but the Brown team refused the contract, Brown wanted to get a 5-year contract, according to the regulations, if Brown is selected to the best team, it will trigger the designated veteran clause, at that time, Brown can sign a five-year $287 million contract with the Celtics, and if Brown is not selected for the All-NBA team, his new contract extension will be reduced to about $248 million for 5 years.
Let's look at Brown's performance, so far this season, Brown has averaged 36.1 minutes per game, can get 26.7 points, 6.9 rebounds, 3.4 assists, 1.2 steals and 0.4 blocks, shooting a number of times ranked 5th in the league, if this performance continues, Brown is very likely to be selected for the best team, and according to the new collective agreement, only players who play no less than 65 games can compete for MVP, best team player and other major awards of the season. That's not a problem for Brown, who has maintained high attendance throughout his career.
Beijing time on April 1, the NBA league ended a major negotiation, labor and management have formally negotiated a new seven-year agreement, according to the NBA's new labor agreement, a rookie contract after the end of the veteran player, his early contract extension with the parent team salary increase ceiling increased from 120% to 140%, which is undoubtedly a huge increase in a player's income, based on the new collective agreement, the Celtics once again raised the contract offer, Brown was offered a four-year, $190 million contract extension, but Brown still chose to refuse the extension.
Therefore, in the latest issue of NBA Analysis's prediction, in the offseason, if Jaylen Brown fails to renew his contract with the Celtics in advance, in order to avoid Brown losing him in vain after becoming a free agent, the Greenshirts may look for the Lakers to complete a deal, and according to NBA reporter Analysis, Lakers general manager Pelinka planned a trade plan with Russell as the main body, the specific plan is:
The Lakers sent Dangelo Russell, Reeves and a 2029 first-round pick, while the Celtics sent Jaylen Brown.
In this way, the Celtics can replace Russell, an excellent starter, and Reeves, an excellent rotation, while the Lakers can form a big three of James, thick eyebrows, and Brown to continue to attack the championship.
So, do you think the deal is worth it for both parties?
