"The winner of the 2010 NBA All-Star Game MVP is Dirk Nowitzki!"

Stern finally announced the MVP without any suspense.

Nowitzki took the trophy from Stern's hand, and when he held it high, the cheers from the audience filled the sky.

Really a home stadium for 100,000 people!

After the cheers died down, Nowitzki also gave a brief acceptance speech.

He mentioned Lin Ying and Durant.

"This trophy belongs to Texas."

This sentence also brought the fans' emotions to a peak.

Three Texas legends teamed up to win the All-Star Game MVP, which will become a big talking point for fans after the game.

After the main game, Lin Ying accompanied Brooke for a ride and then sent her to the airport.

She has a movie to shoot tomorrow and she should have left today, but she stayed in the end to watch Lin Ying's game.

She was originally a very enterprising person, and Lin Ying was the first to ask her to do this.

Although Lin Ying has no experience in love and doesn't even know how to please her, it may be that simplicity that makes her fall in love.

And there is a common point. Being an actor is actually not much different from playing basketball. You are either filming or on the way to filming.

In the fiercely competitive environment of Hollywood, if you take a break, your acting career may end prematurely.

Before parting, Brooke took the initiative to kiss Lin Ying in the car.

Lin Ying's fist became hard.

Fortunately, Brooke relaxed in the end.

"I will go to Phoenix to see you when I have time."

Before leaving, Brooke put his arm around Lin Ying's neck and said.

Obviously, this time the All-Stars have heated up the relationship between the two a lot.

…

The All-Star Game is over, and with it comes another very critical time point, the NBA trade deadline!

Wizards Supermarket has attracted the attention of many teams, and the Suns are also ready to make a move.

Originally, the Wizards' trident was pretty good, but Arenas was injured and ended last season in the Eastern Conference.

In December of this season, Arenas created another "gun scandal" that had a very negative impact on the team.

This ultimately led the Wizards management to abandon the combination and announce a rebuild.

Arenas is still out for the season, so naturally he cannot be traded.

But the team's other two giants, Caron Butler and Antawn Jamison, are very good and popular.

Among them, Jamison averaged 20.5 points and 8.8 rebounds per game, and Butler also averaged 16.9 points, 6.7 rebounds and 2.3 assists.

There have been rumors of trades between the two of them from many teams before, including the Cavaliers, Nuggets, and Suns that are aiming to compete for the championship.

The Suns are targeting Caron Butler.

Currently, the only players available for the Suns at the small forward position are senior Hill and second-year player Dudley, and the management is worried about the depth of this position.

Of course, these are management matters, and it is impossible for Lin Ying to get involved now.

If you ask him, he definitely wants no deal at all.

Now the Suns' run-in is almost complete. Although there are some shortcomings in the lineup, if a new rotation is added, the run-in will have to be done again.

Of course, Butler's strength is definitely there, and if the trade can go well, it will also be a boost on the road to the championship.

In the blink of an eye, the trade deadline is approaching, and NBA deals are being concluded one after another.

The news that broke out two days in a row shocked the alliance, and Lin Ying was also surprised.

He could see that the wheel of history seemed to be moving in another direction.

The first transaction is a three-party transaction involving the Nuggets, Wizards and Cavaliers. The specific details are:

The Wizards received Ilgauskas and a first-round pick from the Cavaliers in exchange for Antawn Jamison and Gavaris Crittenton;

The Cavaliers sent Ilgauskas and a first-round draft pick to acquire LaGar Bell and Boris Diaw.

The Nuggets traded Raja Bell and Boris Diaw for Antawn Jamison and Gavaris Crittenton.

It is reported that Anthony played a great role in promoting this transaction.

Of course, Lin Ying would never guess that it was because of his game against the Spurs that stimulated Anthony.

When he saw this transaction, he was a little surprised and even a little happy.

Originally, Jamison should have gone to the Cavaliers at this time in history and had a relatively unsuccessful season.

But now the Cavaliers have acquired Bell and Diaw. These two are very suitable for Anthony, and of course they are also very suitable for James!

Most of the Cavaliers' role players are scraps, which greatly enhances the Cavaliers' immediate combat effectiveness.

Will the Celtics advance to the finals? It really hangs in the balance a lot.

As for the Nuggets, Afflalo performed well and Bell has never played, so it is basically equivalent to Diaw simply replacing Jamison.

On paper, it's a huge profit.

But this is also what makes Lin Ying happy.

After two years in Denver, he knows that whenever there is someone around Anthony who needs the ball, there will eventually be compatibility issues.

And although Afflalo is performing very well now, in the playoffs, the difference in role between him and Bell will be reflected.

The second trade is related to the Suns.

The Suns sent Ben Wallace and acquired Caron Butler and Mike James from the Wizards!

How much is Caron Butler's trade worth? This can be seen in his trades in history.

At that time, he, Haywood and Stevenson were exchanged for Josh Howard, Drew Gooden and others from the Mavericks.

At that time, Haywood was a Wizard, averaging 9.8 points, 10.3 rebounds and 2.1 blocks per game, while Josh Howard only averaged 12 points and 3 rebounds per game due to injuries.

Not to mention how much of a robbery this deal is, but what is certain is that Butler is basically given away for free.

So the essence of the Wizards' deal is to give Butler a two-year contract to the Suns in exchange for Ben's one-year expiring contract, and also smoothly resolve James's $6 million expiring junk contract, leaving about $700

The expenditure of RMB 9 million will also free up salary space of RMB 9 million next summer.

In fact, after the transaction was completed, the Wizards and Suns announced that they would lay off Ben and James.

However, shortly after the transaction was completed, Cole called Lin Ying and Stoudemire to the office for some emotional comfort.

Then Lin Ying almost ducked at this moment.

According to what Cole said, Ben will return to the Suns in 30 days!

In other words, this is a trick with nothing!

Lin Ying and Xiao Si were stunned on the spot.

But Cole also explained the reason why this transaction was done this way.

Without it, it's just imitation.

The object of imitation is the Cavaliers next door.

Lin Ying also remembered at this time that the first operation he just performed was exactly the same.

Big Z went to the Wizards, and 30 days after being waived, he would immediately sign a contract with the Cavaliers.

And in history, it was also because of that transaction that the famous "Big Z Clause" was finally born!

This kind of operation is not unique to the Cavaliers. When Lin Ying was still in the Nuggets, the Spurs did this to Brent Barry.

It's just that the Big Z incident has a greater impact.

But in this case, a very interesting question:

Should this clause be renamed "Big Z-Big Ben Clause"?

Talking about the Suns, they have an extra Butler, which must be very embarrassing!

Just like Afflalo/Bell, the roles Dudley/Butler can play in the playoffs are also different.

"But in order to sign back the big money, we will lay off Zhu, so that he will have the opportunity to sign with other teams."

Cole then told Lin Ying some news.

It is a bit difficult for Zhu Fangyu to stay in the NBA due to his own ability. If the championship teams ask for it, he will definitely not be on the activated list.

"But I heard that the Warriors are interested in him and he should be able to get a contract."

Cole then told Lin Ying another piece of news.

This is understandable, the Warriors are already interested in Chinese players, and their record this season is poor.
