Crazy! The No. 8 draw + 3 first round of the Tanhua sign, and I am willing to swallow George s 212 million contract, what s wrong with the Nets?

Basketball

According to the latest report from the American Records Ary, the Nets management has held internal discussions on improving the draft pick, with the goal directly targeting the 2025 Titanhua lottery in the hands of the 76ers.

What is even more shocking is that the Nets are willing to take over Paul George's remaining three-year maximum salary contract of 212 million yuan in exchange for a higher draft pick and future assets.

The Nets currently hold the No. 8, No. 19, No. 26 and No. 27. If they package multiple draft picks (such as No. 8 + No. 19 + future first round), they are expected to exchange the No. 76ers for the Tanhua lottery. In addition, although the contract to take over George is very risky, the Nets may think that:

The 2025 draft is excellent, and the Nanhua signing may choose future superstars such as Ace Bailey;

George's contract can become a bargaining chip for subsequent transactions, and if the performance rebounds, it will still have trading value.

George's performance this season is controversial. He represented 76ers in 41 games, averaging 16.2 points, 5.3 rebounds, 4.3 assists per game, and shot 43%, 35.8%, and 81.4% in three events, setting new lows in the past five years.

What's more fatal is that he missed 31 games due to injury and had a attendance rate of less than 60%. Although he still contributed 1.8 steals on the defensive end, the Sixers' winning rate was even higher during his absence, making his high-paying contract even more harsh.

If the Nets take over, they will bet that they will recover from their injuries and recover their peak state, and risks and opportunities coexist.

Salary expert Bobby Marks once said that more first-round picks will appear in this year's draft, and the Nets are one of the most active teams. If the Sixers are determined to rebuild, they may value draft picks more than immediate combat power, and the Nets' multiple first-round picks + young players (such as Cameron Thomas) may become the key to negotiations. If this deal comes true, it will be one of the most important operations this summer. Can the Nets bet on winning the future? Have the 76ers completely entered reconstruction mode? Let's wait and see!
