Rockets 8 replaced 1KD 4th! US media announced the top 10 bold operations in offseason: Lakers refuse to continue James 9th

Rockets ranked fourth in 8 for 1KD! As the offseason adjustments were all completed, the US media "bleacherreport" announced the list of the top 10 bold operations in the offseason, among which the Lakers refused to renew the contract with James ranked 9th.

Fifth place: The Suns renewed their contract with 145 million yuan in 2 years. After betting on the Big Three, the overwhelmed Suns chose to trade Durant this summer, while reluctantly buying out Bill and starting a new round of reconstruction work.

As a result, in the context of reconstruction, the Suns did not send away the old core Booker, but signed a two-year, $145 million contract with him, which had an average salary of NBA record.

In addition, the Suns have introduced new players such as Marwie, Dillon, Jaylen Green, as well as many rookies such as Maruach, Fleming and Brea. Such a polarized and obvious operation puts the Suns in the worst "need and wanted" state to rebuild the team.

4th place: Rockets 8 for 1KD

The word "bold" is not a derogatory meaning, but a neutral word. The Rockets 8 for 1 got KD perfectly interpreted this. When they faced the opportunity, Stone boldly completed the magical operation and won KD.

Even though Durant is 37 years old and has great hidden dangers in youth and health, judging by the Rockets' only given away one first-round pick and the young players only gave away Jaylen Green, who had been ineffective in training for many seasons, this deal is already a big winner.

Not to mention that Durant's ability perfectly meets the Rockets' lineup needs and will target the improvement of Houston's key ball capabilities. As the schedule advances, I believe that the value of this deal will become higher and higher.

Third place: Magic 7 for 1 Bain

At the beginning of the offseason, the Magic shocked the league with a 7 for 1 big deal. They not only gave out two high-quality instant combat powers, Pope and Cole Anthony, but also sold 5 first-round picks in one go, and only got a small defender Bain who was not famous enough.

From the actual lineup demand, the Magic have obtained a backcourt core with perfect complementary styles through this deal. As the most underrated high-yield three-point shooter in active service, Bain's shooting, defense and organizational abilities all meet the needs of the Magic.

However, the Magic already has three players with big contracts, Ban Keiro, Wagner Jr. and Sargers. The introduction of Bain will face considerable pressure on salary and luxury taxes. The core reason why the Magic is willing to bet on is that the East is in chaos after Tatum was injured and allowed this young team to see the opportunity.

Second place: The Bucks cut Lillard and signed Turner

Lillard's serious Achilles tendon injury made the Bucks in trouble, especially when Antetokounmpo showed his emotions to leave the team, the Bucks finally made an extreme choice and directly cut Lillard through extended terms.

At the same time, using the free space to sign new player Turner to the greatest extent, but Lillard will occupy more than $25 million in dead money every year is undoubtedly a bold choice for the Bucks.

No. 1: Pelicans traded upward to win Quinn

The Pelicans completed an amazing operation on draft night, packing the No. 23 draw and the 26-year unprotected first round (the one with the Pelicans and the Bucks have a higher pick) to exchange for the No. 13 draw from the Hawks.

Queen is indeed a promising inside player, but he has not reached the core level of building a team, nor has he truly realized his talent. The Pelicans are so anxious to spend a lot of money to bet on, which is undoubtedly a bold operation.

Especially since the Pelicans have limited competitiveness, the Bucks may even lose Antetokounmpo and fall into a bad reconstruction situation. It is not a wise move to send away the 26-year draft pick in package.

The rest of the rankings are as follows: The Spurs renewed Fox for 229 million in four years;

7: The Nuggets traded with Cameron Johnson;

8: The Grizzlies renewed JJJ for 240 million in five years;

9: The Lakers refused to renew James;

10: The Celtics cleared the championship lineup of Zhu Holiday, Posses, and Horford.
