Chapter 1,123
After constantly communicating with Roy, the Rockets, who never got any relief from Roy, finally took this step.
Chris Bosh doesn't want to re-sign with the Rockets as a free agent.
Chris Bosh hopes to trade the Bird Rights from the Heat to the Rockets so that he can sign a huge five-year, $160 million contract this year.
Without this bird rights, he and the Rockets could only sign a 4-year, 118 million contract with a maximum term of 4 years. The difference between the two contracts is more than 40 million.
This is not a minority.
As a player, he has now stopped competing for championships and has not thought about any personal pursuits. He now wants to return to his hometown and get a big contract just to provide for his retirement.
For players with such a mentality, they can earn more, so why not?
Chris Bosh's "indifferent" mentality has stuck the Rockets to death.
Pat Riley also put Bosh's 'greedy' mentality to death.
After Chandler was poached by the Mavericks, Pat Riley even named the Rockets, asking for Scola and Thabeet.
But for the Rockets, neither Thabeet nor Scola can figure it out. Thabeet is not good now, but his terrifying static talent always makes people look forward to it, and Scola, Scola is now accurate. An All-Star player, he has become an important inside pillar for the Rockets after Yao Ming left. The inside combination of Scola and Bosh has given the Rockets a lot of expectations.
In this case, Roy's statement that he would never be on the same team as Chris Bosh became the last straw for the Rockets.
The Heat need an inside line, and once Bosh comes, Roy must go.
And that makes the choice very easy.
Either give me Thabeet, or give me a certified All-Star caliber big man.
In today's league, it is a difficult requirement to give the Heat a recognized All-Star-level insider. Even if Roy is a superstar, he may not be able to get an All-Star-level insider.
After all, Roy is not a complete superstar, and his injuries are always a hidden danger.
It is difficult for a team with an All-Star big man to replace Roy with his own All-Star big man.
What's more, trading Roy for an All-Star insider, and then sending this insider to the Heat, isn't this equivalent to the Rockets trading Roy for a free agent Bosh?
Although they were so beaten by the Heat, it was such a loss!
However, the Heat were sure that they wanted Bosh, and Bosh was unwilling to give up his bird rights. Bosh even said that if he couldn't take away his bird rights, he would rather renew his contract with the Heat!
Damn it, I still think about it. If Pat Riley robbed them, just rob them. Bosh followed Pat Riley and robbed them like this. This makes the Rockets feel uncomfortable. Why can Roy, who is not a Texan, have such a problem with the Rockets? Love, why do you, a Texas native, not love the Rockets so much?
What's even more mysterious and embarrassing is that when they were faced with a non-local who loved the Rockets so much and a local who despised the Rockets so much, they resolutely chose the local who deceived them...
It is difficult for the Rockets to find an All-Star level insider recognized by the Heat.
Fortunately, after the Rockets sent such transaction information to other teams in the league, one team came to the door.
That is the Dallas Mavericks who just hired Chandler from the Heat.
In this summer, the Dallas Mavericks' main goal is to improve the team's defensive strength and organize the team's guard lineup.
After acquiring DeAndre Jordan from the Clippers and poaching Chandler from the Heat, the team has a surplus of center positions.
Kwame Brown's position becomes a bit awkward.
Kwame Brown is more versatile than Chandler and can attack and defend, but his defense is not as good as Chandler's, and on the offensive end...
To be honest, the tactics the Mavericks will use next season do not require a lot of offensive requirements from inside players.
The Mavericks' perimeter offensive firepower is enough to support the offense and tactics the Mavericks need.
next season,
Kwame Brown will likely be replaced in the starting job by Chandler, who is a better defender.
It is indeed a waste for an interior lineman of Kwame Brown's caliber to be a substitute on the bench.
The Dallas Mavericks are willing to use Kwame Brown as a bargaining chip, and are even willing to trade the team's best sixth man Jason Terry to the Rockets in order to give the Rockets face.
This is very sincere.
Especially after knowing that Kwame Brown is an acceptable All-Star level inside player certified by Pat Riley and the Heat.
So, finally, the Chris Bosh trade that has been involved for so long is finally done.
The Houston Rockets and Miami Heat have reached a three-way deal with the Dallas Mavericks as the middle party.
in transaction.
The Houston Rockets sent Roy and Gerald Wallace, who originally wanted to leave for free but was lobbied by the Rockets to sign and trade first.
The Miami Heat sent Bosh.
The Dallas Mavericks sent out the team's starting center Kwame Brown, the team's best sixth man Jason Terry, as well as DeShawn Stevenson and Matt Carroll, whose contracts expire next season.
The Houston Rockets acquire Chris Bosh and Jason Terry.
The Dallas Mavericks acquire Roy.
The Miami Heat received two expiring contracts from Kwame Brown, Gerald Wallace, and the Mavericks that expire next year.
The Houston Rockets got Chris Bosh as they wished, and they also got Jason Terry, a quasi-All-Star player, as compensation.
In this transaction, the Dallas Mavericks make no loss or profit.
The Miami Heat are simply making a killing.
Gerald Wallace also made money. He originally wanted to go to the Heat, but the Heat had no salary space and could not sign him. In the end, he went to the Heat through a trade.
The biggest loser in this deal is the Rockets.
The cost paid by the Rockets in this transaction does not include Gerald Wallace. This is destined to leave. If it were not for the deal with the Heat, Gerald Wallace would not choose to sign. It seems that the cost of this transaction for the Rockets Only Roy can get Bosh and Jason Terry, which seems to be a bloody gain.
But you know, Chris Bosh is a free agent, an unrestricted free agent!
The Rockets could have used the combination of Bosh + Roy!
But because of their operations, the Rockets' Bosh + Roy combination eventually turned into a Bosh + Terry combination.
Isn't this blood loss?
Of course, except that the Rockets are losing blood.
Roy, who had true feelings for the Rockets, but was treated like this by the Rockets, also suffered a loss.
As a Rockets player, and a player who has been the boss of the Rockets for eleven days, of course he is not willing to go to the Dallas Mavericks, Texas' mortal enemy.
But he was given directly to his mortal enemy by the team to which he gave the most affection.
Of course, after the deal is completed, no one except Yeez and the other Garfield Five players will care about Roy's thoughts.
