Chapter 47 The Cardinal Is Crazy 【For Collection】

Two days later, a big news that was enough to shock the alliance finally broke out!

Boston Celtics and Houston Rockets made a deal!

The Boston Celtics traded second-year potential newcomers Antoine Walker and Greg Miner to the Houston Rockets for Charles Barkley and veteran center Kevin Willis!

As soon as the deal came out, it immediately became the center of discussion for the entire league.

Many people think that Auerbach is confused! crazy! He is operating indiscriminately and destroying the Great Wall!

The reason is simple... forget Greg Miner, who has been slowly losing time in the rotation this season, just a bonus.

But Antoine Walker is a 20-year-old potential rookie.

His potential has been gradually realized. So far this season, Antoine Walker has averaged 21.8 points and 10.7 rebounds per game.

The shooting range is all over the half court, and he also has a shooting rate of more than 30% from beyond the 3-point line. Although he has problems with wave shooting and poor defense, everyone believes that he will be an All-star forward in the next ten years. !

Coupled with his comprehensive skills and mature technology, and Boston's improving game form and record this season.

Everyone thinks...

It's insane to tear down a young and promising lineup of Lin Long and Walker at this time.

In particular, Barkley and Willis acquired by Auerbach are all over 35-year-old veterans!

If it's 25-year-old Barkley and Willis, the operation is super god-level, but they have reached the age of retirement.

Kevin Willis used to be an All-Star-level center. This season, he is still a teenage madman. He averaged a good stat of 15+8 per game. The defensive end can also give the team a lot of help. But he is already 36 years old, and he is at a dangerous age where he may fall off a cliff when he walks and falls.

As for Barkley, the former MVP and rebounding champion, this season is even worse. Not only are the points and rebounds the lowest since his rookie season, but he has even lost his main position recently and has been replaced by a substitute.

It was also the first time since his rookie season in his entire career.

Of course, the most important thing is that Barkley is 35 years old!

Trade a young and talented forward for two former star veterans who are well past their prime.

This kind of operation, the entire alliance is somewhat incomprehensible.

Because by all accounts, the Celtics are a rebuilding young team, not a championship-caliber team that needs a last-ditch trade deal.

All of their players are young, and they need growth rather than a few dead veterans.

In short... Auerbach's operation made everyone confused.

Is this old man really out of breath, and even his head has degenerated, or is he really hiding some incredible backhand?

Many teams have begun to inquire about the current situation of the Celtics, wanting to see if they really have any hidden tricks.

Subsequent transactions do.

But compared to the first deal that shocked the league, it was a minor repair not worth mentioning.

For example, they traded starting center Walter McCarty for Washington Wizards backup Ben Wallace and a future second-round pick.

Then use this second-round pick to add Dee Brown to the Charlotte Bobcats' shooter.

Best Sixth Man ever: Dale Curry.

Neither deal has caused much discussion.

With Willis, they really don't need the exact same type of McCarty, in exchange for a second-round pick and addition, and adding a shooter to the team, which are all minor fixes within the normal range.

What really caught the league's management beyond the comprehension was their first trade.

The general manager of the Rockets, Dawson, was lying on the stool with some pride, and smiled at Tomjanovich beside him: "How, I solved the aging of the team and solved the problem of Barkley. The restless elements got Walker, a promising striker, and you can believe that Auerbach initiated all this!"

Tomjanovich said lightly: "It's a good deal, great, but I don't understand why Auerbach did this. Does he think the Celtics after the trade have the hope of winning the championship within two years?"

In the Los Angeles Lakers office, Jerry West also asked for the Celtics’ current roster and statistics. He looked at the roster in front of him without saying a word, and also wondered what Auerbach was doing. !

It is understandable to trade the future for today.

But the premise is that you have to have a winning team!

unless……

Jerry West turned his attention to Lin Long's name.

Unless Auerbach thinks that the teenager missed by Los Angeles can lead the team to win the championship within two years!

The same questioning and curiosity occurred in almost 70% of the team offices in the league.

For no other reason, Auerbach is Michael Jordan in the management team. His every move will attract the attention of the entire league!
