In the early morning of September 20th, a big deal happened!

The Suns sent out Amar'e Stoudemire, whose contract had just taken effect in 2005, when his contract was renewed with a five-year maximum salary of $73 million in advance, and Pat Burke, the undrafted draft pick in 2002, who had a garbage contract worth $6 million, and

The Heat reached a deal and acquired Shaquille O'Neal, James Posey, the Heat's top-five protected draft picks in the first round of 2007, and the Heat's top-five protected draft picks in 2009!

This deal came very suddenly. After acquiring Josh Smith two months ago, Suns general manager Steve Kerr still said that with Josh Smith and Stoudemire, they have the most athletic ability in the league.

The most capable insider combination, who knew they would suddenly be traded!

When Liu Mang woke up in the morning, he turned on his phone and saw a text message from Schwartz.

Then I immediately checked online and saw the transaction details!

O'Neal travels west again!

Liu Mang found it incredible. How much does the Suns love O'Neal?

In the original time and space, in the 2006-07 season, O'Neal played so poorly that the Suns replaced O'Neal with Marion, who was at his peak in 2007. Then in the 2008-09 season, the Suns did not make the playoffs. The next one

Without O'Neal this season, we will reach the Western Conference Finals immediately...

But this time, Liu Mang saw the bargaining chip offered by the Heat, and saw that the deal was actively pursued by the Heat. He felt that it was understandable for the Suns to accept the bargaining chip from the Heat. The Suns had been claiming this summer that they would regain their defense and play

The Hawks' new style of running and gunning replaced Gentry, who was very good at coaching on both ends of the offense and defense. They also had O'Neal, who was in the first team last season, and acquired defensive star James Posey, as well as two draft picks...

It is normal for Cole to accept such chips.

Kerr said many times in the summer that Josh Smith's physical talent is better than Stoudemire's and he is healthier. Liu Mang feels that Kerr doesn't seem to pay much attention to Stoudemire, perhaps because he thinks

Stoudemire's technique is too rough.

Liu Mang remembered that in the original time and space, Stoudemire said when he left the Suns in 2010 that the Suns did not value him at all, and Cole was fired after Stoudemire left the Suns in 2010.

…

But Liu Mang knew that although last year's season was canceled, Stoudemire took advantage of that year to practice his mid-range shooting and ball control, and he would become a strong contender for the center forward.

Although Liu Mang is looking at it from a perspective, many people at this stage think that Josh Smith is replacing Stoudemire, but Liu Mang really thinks that Cole is very good as a coach and a manager...

Liu Mang expressed his approval of Cole's vision, it was really sharp!

But... Stoudemire, who has just returned from injury, will be under the hands of Pat Riley. How many years can this man of glass last?

O'Neal, who was traded by Cole, who loved him a year in advance, will have a major change in the Suns' lineup, forming a double Thomas substitute inside line, including Laja Bell, James Posey, Nash, and Barbosa.

What kind of performance does Dior's super lineup perform?

Liu Mang felt that in just one summer, he went to play in the World Championships. When he returned to the NBA, the NBA had become almost unfamiliar!

too crazy!

Every time a dynasty is born, there will be many jaw-dropping trades and star changes.

We have experienced the short-lived soap opera between the Hawks and Timberwolves before, and the madness of the Spurs and Lakers... This time, seeing O'Neal change teams again, the media and fans are calmer and are looking at this deal calmly.

In the opinion of most public opinion, the Heat lost blood, gave away draft picks, gave away O'Neal, the top two center in the league, got a glass man who was just retired for the season and didn't know his condition, and also gave away James Posey.

It was a rubbish contract, and it was immediately terminated using the amnesty clause.

Only Pat Riley knows how much weight O'Neal gained this summer after his failure to win the championship last year. He lost weight in two years and ate it all back in one summer, and he still has a surplus...

However, even if the Heat get rid of O'Neal's 20 million contract, they have a lot of long-term contracts signed in the summer of 2005, plus Stoudemire's maximum salary, even if they have the final year of Wade's rookie contract

The bonus and salary cap are also above the luxury tax threshold, reaching 69 million, so Pat Burke is directly amnesty and his salary is lowered below the luxury tax threshold.

Liu Mang checked the Heat's lineup, which is good in theory. Regardless of the decline of Jason Williams and Antoine Walker, there are Wade, Stoudemire, and Jason Williams.

The lineup of Si, Haslem, and Walker, and the bench also includes Jason Kapono, Gary Payton, and Mark Jackson, which is not bad!

But there is no room for signings.

After the transaction was completed, Pat Riley appointed Pat Burke, and then signed Eddie Jones, who was pardoned by the Grizzlies, to a minimum salary. Liu Mang felt that the Heat could only start with the minimum salary...

…

But it is still very troublesome. It depends on the injuries of Wade and Stoudemire. If they stay healthy, there will definitely be another strong enemy in the East. Both of them are young. Stoudemire and Stoudemire

Dedu is only 24 years old. After waiting for two years for the 7-8 million contracts of Jason Williams, Antoine Walker, Mark Jackson and others to expire, even if Wade's maximum salary contract takes effect, he will still have

Salary space for signings, and...Wade was the top five pick of the 2003 generation, the only player who did not implement the Ice Clause.

Liu Mang felt more and more lively...

It seems like another superstar is heading west, but for Liu Mang, he is more optimistic about the Heat, which has a much worse lineup than the Suns, except for injuries!

…

The sudden trade between the Heat and the Suns did not have much impact on the Hawks.

On September 21st, when O'Neal was trolling Pat Riley, saying that he would break Stoudemire's waist next time, Liu Mang came to Phillips Arena, rested for a few days, and now he is going to start training!

Since he only played the semi-finals and finals of the World Championships at the beginning of this month, Liu Mang maintained his condition very well and did not need to do recovery training. He just warmed up and started practicing shooting.

Jordan's second peak star card has been of great help to Liu Mang. Liu Mang feels that it may be more effective than Jordan's first peak star card, at least better than Jordan's rookie season star card that Liu Mang used and averaged 37 per game.

Star cards divided into seasons are very useful.

Because it’s more suitable!

Jordan in 1992 and Jordan in 1996, one is 29 years old and the other is 33 years old. Which Jordan is stronger is a matter of opinion, but the latter's lower physical fitness and better skills allow Liu Mang to learn more.
