After the Rockets, the Nuggets are also crazy! In the early morning of July 2, the Nuggets trade again, Jokic welcomes a strong substitute

Basketball

With the opening of the free market this year, the NBA's arms race looks more and more lively now.

Since the moment the free market door officially opened at 6 a.m. on July 1, the teams in the league have quickly rushed towards the free agents who are waiting to be sold.

So from that moment on, we saw a lot of signing and transactions happening.

The Houston Rockets are definitely the most active team in this year's free agent market and trading market. They completed 12 operations in just over a dozen days, including trading Durant and renewing Adams, Smith Jr., Uduka, Van Vritte, and signing Finney Smith.

Some people think that the Rockets will become the most anticipated team in the new season, and they are saying that Rockets general manager Raphael Stone has been crazy this summer.

However, inadvertently, the Denver Nuggets, another Western Conference team, also went crazy after changing the general manager. The Nuggets completed two operations during the day on July 1st. One is to sign former champion member Bruce Brown, and the other is to exchange Michael Porter Jr. for 3D forward Cameron Johnson. These two operations have benefited the Nuggets a lot, and they have plenty of room to complete subsequent strengthening.

In the early morning of July 2, another deal was reached by the Nuggets, which was even more amazing.

According to ESPN famous reporter Shams, the Nuggets King made a transaction and the king sent Valan to the Nuggets for Saric.

Last season, Valan was sent to the Kings by the Wizards before the trade deadline. He started in 9 of the 32 games in the second half of the season, and averaged 8.7 points and 7 rebounds per game.

Saric played 16 games for the Nuggets last season, and averaged 3.5 points and 3.1 rebounds per game. The incredible thing about this deal is that the Kings are such a charitable man. They accepted Saric, who could hardly play the ball, but sent Valentus, who could still play some starting games with the Kings last season.

After Valan went to the Nuggets, Jokic finally had a qualified substitute, and this substitute was still a very powerful center. Although Valan is already old, his weight, tonnage, rebounding ability and finishing ability at the basket can all bring great help to the Nuggets.

The Nuggets' series of reinforcements are really outstanding. Some people even think that if the Nuggets' lineup after continuous trading is placed in this year's playoffs, the Thunder can be solved within 6 games. There is a certain reason for

to say this, because the Nuggets' shortcomings last season were still very obvious. Whether it is the substitute center position, the 3-pointer on the outside, and the depth of the lineup, they are their shortcomings. Now, the Nuggets have quickly made up for these shortcomings in just about 10 days in just one summer. Their new management is really great!

In the new season, the West is destined to be four teams, namely the Thunder, the Nuggets, the Rockets and the Mavericks, and even the Clippers are probably going to fall behind. As for teams like the Lakers and Warriors that have not completed any operations during the offseason, they are expected to fight for the playoff qualification.
