Trading rating Nets gambling Searle won the dual role of the Lakers by B

Today, the Lakers and the Nets reached a deal agreement, the Lakers will Mozgov and Russell sent to the Nets, get the Nets all-star center Lopez and 2017 first round of the 27th overall pick. ESPN rated the deal, the Nets were rated A-, the Lakers were awarded B.

Nets: A-

From the point of view of the value, this is not a good deal for the Nets, because Mozgov's contract left 3 years $ 48 million, his remaining contract brought about by the negative value, The positive value of the remaining contract in Russell.

But the deal is still good for the Nets, Russell's professional attitude is doubtful, his defense is very bad, he has not proved his body can withstand high-intensity confrontation, but he is only a 21-year-old The teenager. And for a second-year player, Russell last season averaged 15.6 points, 4.8 assists, 3.5 rebounds and 1.4 steals the performance is already quite good.

Point guard more mature than other players, especially as Russell this high point guard, so there is reason to believe that he has great potential to dig. Such as Arenas, Chauncey Billups and Zhu Huo Ledi, they are not how the 21-year-old, but later became the All-Star. And Conley may not have been selected All-Star players, the best point guard.

To enhance the three-point ability, may be able to make Russell become more powerful, like Conley, Lori and Kenba - Walker as. Before the All-Star break this year, Russell's three-point shooting was only 30.1%, after the All-Star weekend rose to 38.7%, if he can continue to improve their shooting, then he can see that they will become a What kind of player.

Nets in recent years there is no high pick picks, they can not get through the draft like Russell this talented young players. On the other hand, Lopez's market value is limited, if the Nets in the summer of 2018 to renew Lopez, then the salary space will be affected. So in this case can get Russell, this is a worthwhile decision.

Lakers: B

The deal has a double effect on the Lakers, allowing them to make progress in the next season, but also for their future benefit.

Lopez can upgrade the Lakers center position, no matter which teammates in their side, he should be able to enhance the Lakers offensive ability. Last season, Lopez hit 134 three-pointers, the Lakers only Russell (135) and Nick - Young (170) more than him.

Although Lopez is not good at rebounding, but he is an underestimated basket protector, last season he was only 5 feet in the basket within the opponent played 47% of the shooting, which is close to the top 10 Level, than the Lakers any player are high, Mozgov 53.4%. On the other hand, Lopez's athletic ability is not worse than Mozgov.

Lopez's contract will expire in the summer of 2018, so the real benefit of the deal is in the summer https://www.lolga.com/nba-2k-18/nba-2k-18-mt . At that time the Lakers can make $ 21.6 million in salary space, and if they think of ways to get rid of Lore - Deng's contract and trade off Clarkson, they will be able to open two top salary contracts.

Uncertain whether to give up Russell is worth it, but the deal also shows that the Lakers will be elected in the draft Ronso - Boer. In this case, the value of Russell may be further reduced, so now it may be time to trade him.
