In addition to the Cavaliers and Warriors, other teams also have many operations.
On July 21, BJ time, the Rockets official website reported that the deal for Ty Lawson to join the Rockets was officially completed.
The final details of the deal are: the Rockets sent Nick Johnson, Pablo Prigioni, Joey Dorsey, Custas Papanikolaou, a protected first-round pick in 2016 plus a portion of
In exchange for cash, he received Lawson and a 2017 second-round draft pick from the Nuggets.
Lawson currently has two years left on his contract, with the first year worth $12.4 million. However, it is reported that Lawson agreed to make the second year of his contract worth $13.21 million non-guaranteed as one of the conditions for reaching the deal.
Showing his determination to leave Denver.
In this way, if Lawson performs poorly next season, whether on or off the court, the Rockets can lay him off before the start of the 2016-17 season without having to pay him a salary. At the same time, this also has considerable benefits for Lawson himself.
Incentive effect, after all, US$13 million is not a small amount.
I have to say that Mo Zhutou is quite shrewd and has a way of calculating people.
Ty Lawson was also young, so he easily let go of a lot of money and left his destiny in the hands of others.
You know, the Rockets have Harden, and the ball will basically not be handed over to Ty Lawson. In this case, he will not get very good data.
Point guards who have worked with Harden do not have a good fate, except for defensive functional players.
It is reported that at the same time as the transaction was completed, the Nuggets also waived veteran Prigioni.

On July 22, BJ time, Danilo Gallinari reached a two-year, $34 million contract extension with the Denver Nuggets.
Gallinari's contract with the Nuggets has one year left, worth US$11.56 million. The contract extension includes a clause of "a salary increase of US$2.5 million in the 2015-16 season." Gallinari's salary will be divided respectively in the next three years.
for US$14 million, US$15 million and US$16 million.
Gallinari is still very useful, but his speed is slower and his defense is average.
After the Nuggets traded guard Ty Lawson to the Rockets on Sunday, the team has enough salary space to keep Gallinari.
In the past year, the Nuggets have successively completed contract extensions with core players Gallinari, Wilson Chandler and Kenneth Faried.
Gallinari played a total of 59 games for the Nuggets in the 2014-15 season, including 27 starts, averaging 12.4 points and 3.7 rebounds in 24.2 minutes per game. On April 11, 2015, the Nuggets went through double overtime at home.
In the 143-144 loss to the Mavericks, Gallinari scored 47 points, setting a new career single-game scoring record.
After suffering a serious injury that resulted in the entire 2013-14 season being retired, Gallinari seemed to be gradually returning to his peak form, and the Nuggets also offered a large contract to retain this outstanding offensive small forward.

On July 17, BJ time, the Los Angeles Clippers officially announced the signing of free agent Josh Smith. According to sources, the two parties signed a one-year veteran's minimum salary contract worth US$1.5 million. Valley
According to sources, Josh's move from the Rockets to the Clippers this time was "choosing winning and a clearer role rather than money."
"Throughout my career, I have spent a lot of time in Houston with my family and friends. Over the past year, spending time with the Rockets team, fans and people in Houston has made me feel like Houston is my second home.
," Smith said emotionally in his farewell statement, "I want to thank everyone who supports me and treats me and my family with kindness, thank you!"
I have to say that Clippers head coach Rivers is a very funny person. After losing to the Rockets in the playoffs, he immediately hired Josh Smith!
If you use Josh Smith to kill me, I will buy him over to fuck you!
Of course, it later proved that this operation was meaningless, and Josh Smith's performance in the playoffs was short-lived.
…
On July 15th, BJ time, the Mavericks officially announced that Deron Williams has officially joined. Deron's contract with the Mavericks is 10 million for two years, with a player option in the second year.
"Welcome home, Deron Williams, now he is the new member of the Dallas Mavericks!" Mark Cuban wrote on his personal Cyber Dust account, "We are all excited about his arrival, trust you guys
You will too. When you see Deron, don’t forget to give him Mavericks greetings.”
Deron's hometown is Colony, a suburb of Dallas. After his contract was bought out by the Nets, he agreed to join this hometown team.
In 2012, the Mavericks were interested in recruiting Deron, but in the end he signed a five-year, $99 million contract with the Nets. According to the contract, the Nets would pay Deron a salary of $43 million in the next two seasons, but Deron accepted it.
27.5 million buyout amount.
Deron did not have a satisfactory time with the Nets, especially last season when he had to end hastily due to injuries. Last season, he averaged 13.3 points, 6.6 assists, and his shooting percentage was only 38.7%. However, throughout his career, he averaged
The data can be 17 points and 8.5 assists. The three-time All-Star player hopes to find the second spring of his career in Dallas.
"I've always been a fan of his (Deron)," Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle said. "When a situation like this (Deron joins) occurs, the feeling couldn't be better. He's a
A very good player and now he's back home."
Facts have proved that Deron's signing is meaningless, because Deron at this time is no longer the Deron he was back then.

On July 2, BJ time, Asik reached an agreement with the New Orleans Pelicans, and the two parties signed a five-year, $60 million contract. Previously, the Pelicans had already renewed the contract of Anthony Davis, the thick-eyebrow brother, for a sky-high price of 145 million.
, As a result, the annual salary of the Pelicans' interior combination is approaching US$40 million.
The first four years of Asik's new contract are fully guaranteed, and the fifth year is non-guaranteed. In other words, if Asik wants to receive the full amount of the contract, which is US$60 million, he must perform satisfactorily with the team.
Asik was transferred from the Houston Rockets last offseason, for which the Pelicans paid the first round pick of the 2015 draft. The Pelicans believe that Asik has a good body shape and is an excellent rebounder.
He can share the pressure of Davis on the defensive end and free Davis under the new coach Gentry who advocates free offense.
In fact, this is a very bad signing, and this contract also limits the Pelicans' subsequent operations.
To put it bluntly, in the small ball era, giving big contracts to meat shield centers is stupid!
