Take a look at the transactions of one person in exchange for half a team in the past 10 years: Lakers make a lot of money in thick eyebrows, Clippers make a lot of money in George

With the opening of the free market, most teams in the league have completed a lot of transactions, and this year's Rockets trade was also involved in the historically-level deals of 7 teams, and the Suns have also obtained 5 players and 2 second round picks. In the past decade, there have been many transactions of one person who exchanged half a team. Let’s take a look at the rewards of these transactions today.

1. Paul George → Clippers (2019)

The Clippers got: Paul George

Thunder got: Shea Gilgers Alexander, Danilo Gallinari + 5 first-round picks (2021-2026) + 2 first-round swap rights (2023, 2025)

In order to get George, who was selected for the Double First Team at the time, almost all the team's future was given to the Thunder. At that time, Alexander did not show much potential, but with Yali's growth and the Thunder's lineup upgrade, they won the championship this season. Alexander became the double MVP of Xinke, and George did not win the championship for the Clippers, and left the Clippers last summer.

2. Anthony Davis → Lakers (2019)

The Lakers get: Anthony Davis

Pelicans get: Lonzo Ball, Brandon Ingram, Josh Hart + 3 first-round picks (2022, 2023, 2025) + first-round swap rights

This signing allows the Lakers to form a super dual core of James and Davis, and won the championship in 2020 after joining the season. Although the Lakers overdraw the future, they also received rewards. The Pelicans got three players with great potential, but they didn't play out, and were then traded at different times and are still in the reconstruction stage.

3. Ju Holiday → Bucks (2020) [Return to Celtics]

Bucks got: Holiday

Pelicans got Eric Bledsoe, George Hill + 3 first-round picks (2024, 2025, 2027) and first-round swap rights (2026)

At that time, the Bucks had very weak backcourt defense ability. In order to help Antetokounmpo win the championship, the team spent a large deal to get Holiday, and the effect was immediate. They helped the Bucks win the championship in 2021, but then sent Holiday out to trade for Lillard. The former also transferred to the Celtics to help the Celtics win another championship.

4. James Harden → Nets (2021)

Nets get: James Harden

Rockets get: Carris LeVer, Dante Exam, Rodions Kuruts and other players, 4 first-round picks + 4 swap rights

Cavaliers get: Jarrett Allen, Torrion Prince

This tripartite deal made the Nets get Harden, who was still at the peak at that time. Harden and Irving Durant formed the new three giants. I thought they could change the pattern of the league, but the subsequent disintegration of injuries and the team's conflicts caused the team to fail to recover for a long time. The Rockets completed the reconstruction through draft picks, and the Cavaliers also won an All-Star starting center.

5. Russell Westbrook → Lakers (2021)

Lakers get: Russell Westbrook

Wizards get: Kyle Kuzma, Kentavius ​​Caldwell Pope, Montrez Harrell + 2}

The first round pick in the Wizards can still average triple-double per game, and the Lakers are also willing to gamble. After coming to the Lakers, there has been no chemical reaction between Westbrook and James and the Blues. The Lakers' lineup is unbalanced, Westbrook has become the scapegoat and left the Lakers. Although the Wizards have optimized the lineup through Kuzma and the first round pick, they are still a lottery team.

6. Demarcus Cousins ​​→ Pelicans (2017)

Pelicans got: Cousins ​​

Kings got: Buddy Hilder, Tyrek Evans, Langston Galloway + 2}

The Pelicans led by Davis at that time were a playoff team, but they never went further. The team helped Davis get the strongest center Cousins ​​in the league at that time, forming the league's most feared inside double towers, but Cousins ​​was seriously injured and the transaction failed. The league subsequently changed the rules of the trade deadline.

7. Kevin Durant → Suns (2023)

The Suns get: Durant

Nets get: Carl Bridges, Cameron Johnson + 4 first-round picks + 2028 draft swap rights After the Nets' conflict intensified, Durant also sought a deal to come to the Suns. Although the lineup was upgraded, the Suns did not improve in performance, and there was a high luxury tax. It can be said that this deal was a failure. However, the Nets have obtained potential players and future draft picks, and are now the team with the largest cap space in the league.
