Bull officially announced the completion of the 3-year contract signing! A 4-for-6 trade brought in Harden, and LaVine teamed up with Embiid

The Bulls renewed LaVine's contract last offseason, thinking that he would lead the Bulls to glory after getting a big contract, but last season, the Bulls failed to even make the playoffs, which is unacceptable to the Bulls, and they will definitely usher in a major personnel change this offseason.

According to the official report of the Bulls, the team officially reached a 3-year, $20 million contract with Jevon Carter.

Carter is a guard who averaged 22.3 minutes per game last season, with 8.0 points, 2.5 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 0.8 steals, and the Bulls signed him to ensure the strength of the bench, but it did not help much with the team's ceiling, and in order to restore the glory of the Jordan period, they needed to trade for a big star.

According to NBA reporter Chirs Honny, the Bulls want to bring in James Harden and intend to reach a 4-for-6 deal with the 76ers, the specific plan is:

The Bulls send LaVine, Patrick Williams, Caruso, 2024 first-round picks;

Get Harden, Tucker, House, Korkmaz and 2 second-round picks.

With this deal, the Bulls can complete the reinforcement of the roster.

Harden is the first quarterback in the league after Kobe Bryant's retirement, very versatile, with strong scoring ability, whether it is breakthrough or three-pointers, is what he is good at, in the case of Embiid as the core, Harden can still average 21 points per game last season, if he is given the position of tactical core, his scoring will rise further. In Embiid's absence in last season's playoffs, Harden got 40+, which is enough to prove his offensive ability.

At the same time, Harden is also good at driving teammates, his vision is very broad, when teammates are in a good scoring opportunity, he can pass the ball to teammates in time, averaging 10.7 assists per game last season and winning the assist king.

The Bulls get Harden, which allows him to play like he did during the Rockets, giving him absolute tactical centrality, playing Harden's strongest advantage, at least making the playoffs is not a problem at all. If Harden blends in better with the team, there is a chance to compete for the championship, and it is not difficult to do that.

The head coach of the Bulls is Donovan, Harden's first mentor to the NBA, and this relationship can promote their happiness together. In addition, Donovan is also a very capable coach, with a 243-157 record in five seasons with the Thunder, a win rate of more than 60.8%, and under his presence, the team has made the playoffs in all five seasons. With him in charge of Harden, the Bulls' chances of winning a championship increase a lot.

In addition, DeRozan's relationship with Harden is also extraordinary, the two have known each other since childhood, both were born in Compton, Los Angeles, and at that time, they established a real brotherhood. When DeRozan was abandoned by the Raptors and suffered from depression, Harden was always by his side and constantly enlightened him, which allowed DeRozan to come out of the shadows.

DeRozan will definitely welcome Harden to the Bulls, and both of them are familiar with each other's playing styles, which will help Harden integrate into the team. The Bulls are located in the Eastern Division, which is significantly better than the chaos in the West, which also helps them reach the Finals, and the Bulls have a chance of winning a championship based on the right time and place. Harden will also get his first championship.

For this deal, the 76ers also have reasons to agree, Harden is destined to stay, can only let him go, the Bulls' chips are very sincere, LaVine is talented, can shoot suddenly, has won a slam dunk contest, also has three-point range, and a big heart. The 76ers get him, add a reliable scoring point, reduce the defensive pressure Embiid faces, and help the team better.

In addition, Caruso is a defensive powerhouse and has three-point ability on the offensive end. Williams is a rookie with the fourth overall pick and talent, and with their help, the 76ers have a chance to compete for a championship.

On the whole, the chips of this deal, which are acceptable to both parties, have a basis for reaching an agreement.
