Chapter 58 The Mavericks' Trading Plan
The first trading plan is to use veteran Derek Harper in their team to exchange for Nets' inside substitute Gillemot.
Although Harper failed to enter the All-Star at his peak, he was selected into the best defensive team twice and was a double-season defender with excellent defense.
His offensive ability is actually not bad. He averaged more than 16 points per game for many consecutive seasons.
Last season, Harper averaged 18.2 points and 5.4 assists per game.
But this season, Harper was due to his age, and on the other hand, because the Mavericks' rookie Marsh took a lot of his shots, which led to his decline in form.
Both the data and the hit rate have dropped a lot...
If Harper hadn't declined too hard, the Mavericks would have been reluctant to sell it. They are still dreaming of dominating the league with the backcourt trident...
Jim Jackson, Marshburn and Harper are the Mavericks' backcourt trident.
If all three of them were at their peak, maybe this trident could really make something, at least it wouldn't be a soft persimmon that anyone in the league could pinch it like now.
This first plan seems good, but if you really want to trade, the Nets will definitely lose.
Harper averaged a very good game this season, with a shooting percentage of less than 40%. His condition is really bad. Even if the Nets use Harper, it is actually unable to effectively strengthen the backcourt.
Unless Harper can return to the 18+5 average average of last season, this is obviously a matter of unlikely.
The second trading plan, Mavericks, expressed full sincerity.
They want to trade the Nets' Murraysan with this year's No. 4 pick Marshburn.
This is undoubtedly a very sincere transaction quote.
The 1993 rookies have played more than ten games now, and they can be seen as mules or horses.
After deducting the inside players, the three best outside players this year are the No. 3, 4, and 5 rookies in the draft.
No. 3 Penny Hardaway, No. 4 Jamal Marshburn and No. 5 Leidel.
Hardaway and Laidel are now both scoring 16+ points per game, and their shooting percentage is as high as 46%!
Although Mashburn had a low shooting percentage, he scored high, and averaged 19+ points per game, which was quite amazing.
You should know that the No. 1 pick Weber is only 17 points per game now.
Judging from the potential displayed by Marshburn, as long as you don’t suffer injuries in the future, you will definitely be an All-Star player.
The 203 cm tall forward guard is swaying, and it is very tempting to think about it.
If Murraysan hadn't performed amazingly, the Mavericks would have been reluctant to trade Marsh.
The best outside players are Hardaway, Marshburn and Leidel.
The best inside players are Weber, Bradley and Murraysan.
Among them, Weber is undoubtedly the best performer. He is currently averaging 17 points, 9 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 1.5 steals and 2 blocks per game, and his shooting percentage is as high as 55%, which is so versatile that it is incredible.
But this is normal. If you don’t have two tricks, how could you rank among the top five Tigers in Michigan and how could you be elected as the No. 1 pick?
Murraysan is currently averaging 9 points, 13.5 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 blocks per game, and is obviously not as good as Webber.
But it is much better than Bradley, the second-place winner.
Brad's current average of 10 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 blocks per game is far inferior to Murraysan.
Although the score is more than Murray Sandor, Bradley is a big center with only 40% shooting percentage. His offensive ability is really not enough compared to Murray Sandor. You should know that even if Murray Sandor's shooting percentage is not as good as Webber, it can reach nearly 50%.
The Mavericks' deal can be said to be the second best outside in the 1993 draft to exchange for the second best inside Murraysan.
It can be seen that the Mavericks are really sincere and do not make random quotes.
They obviously realized that relying solely on the outside players can't gain a foothold in this league...
Now that the Nets Edwards is injured, it is a very good opportunity for the Mavericks.
In Chuck's Daddy's office, Dad told Tolbert briefly about this and also said two of the Mavericks' quotes. Davidson's scalp was numb and his whole body was chilled.
What a joke, if Murraysan is traded away, wouldn’t he be in a mess?!
He made a detailed plan at the beginning and then brought Murraysan to the Nets. If he was sold now, even if Marshburn was very strong in the deal, even if he was strong enough to Jordan, Davidson would definitely not be happy.
Because once Murraysan is traded to the Mavericks, Davidson's life will be sad, and the income of Evolution Coin has dropped sharply...
A full tenfold reduction!
Moreover, if the two are not in the same team, they will not be able to trigger the mission and will not be able to obtain some special rewards.
Davidson's more and more pained the more he thought about it.
"Wilson, let's go. The general manager will have a meeting in half an hour. Let's go first." Tolbert informed Davidson.
Davidson nodded and followed Tolbert toward the conference room.
Half an hour later, Willis Reed entered the conference room.
"Okay, guys, our dilemma of lack of scorers is probably about to be broken."
"Let's talk about it. How feasible is this transaction using Murraysan to trade Marshburn?"
Willis Reed didn't mention the first plan given by the Mavericks, because the first plan had no meaning to the Nets.
Everyone present expressed their opinions. What made Davidson feel so annoying was that everyone's opinions were surprisingly consistent.
That is to use Murraysan to trade Marshburn, this transaction can be done.
It is true that the value of center players will be greater, but Mashburn is not low. He is a 203-tall forward and guard who is swaying with first-class skills and has a foundation to grow into an All-Star.
Nowadays, there are enough inside players in the Nets, and there are not enough backcourt players at all. Using Murraysan to trade Marshburn can solve the urgent problem.
Although they were reluctant to let go of Murraysan, an excellent insider, considering the current situation of the Nets, trading Mash was the best choice.
This is why everyone present supports the transaction.
As the big boss, Willis Reed naturally would not express his opinion first.
Only Davidson and Dad Chuck were left on the field without expressing their opinions.
If Dad Chuck nodded, the deal would have been basically finalized.
Judging from what Willis Reed meant, it is obviously supportive of this deal.
"No, this deal cannot be made." Davidson spoke.
Chapter completed!
