2 for 1! The deal was officially concluded! Another Eastern Conference powerful quit the championship ranks

Revelation King Shams: The Heat sent Highsmith and the 32-year second round pick to the Nets in exchange for a protected 26-year second round pick.

This transaction created a transaction special of $5.6 million for the Heat, and there is also a future second-round pick to use (2027).

At the same time, the total salary of the Heat so far is $4 million lower than the luxury tax and $9.5 million lower than the first tycoon line, so it now has a full middle class of $14.1 million.

It is particularly worth mentioning that since the 2014-15 season, the Heat have only paid a total of US$22.413 million in luxury tax. They are quite careful and can reach the finals with a civilian lineup in 20 and 23 years. Butler really made a great contribution, but unfortunately the two sides ended up having a bad breakup.

In fact, during this summer's offseason, the Heat also had big moves. Team reporter Jackson revealed that they had quoted the Suns Wiggins + Rozier + Highsmith + Hax + the 20th draw this year in exchange for Durant and Cody Martin. The Suns' asking price for the Heat is Wiggins + Rozier + Highsmith + Hax + Jovic + the 20th pick this year + a draft swap right.

Everyone knows the result. Durant brought his talent to the Rockets, and the Heat just joined in for fun. The Heat mainly refused to show their potential forward Jovic at the age of 22, and the deal negotiations with the Suns about Durant were declared unsuccessful.

The Heat without Butler are no longer a team with the ability to compete for the championship. Last season, the regular season record was only 37 wins and 45 losses, ranking 10th in the Eastern Conference. The Bulls 109-90 in the playoffs and 123-114 respectively. However, the Cavaliers easily swept 4-0 in the first round, with a total net loss of 122 points in four games.

Fortunately, considering that the East is quite weak, the Cavaliers and the Knicks are the competitive ones. The Heat are not much different from the current Celtics, Bucks and Pacers, so they still have the hope of making the playoffs in the new season and will not become a bottom team that everyone bullies.

By the way, becoming a bottom team is not all bad. The Heat are unwilling to spend money and cannot trade big names. It is better to choose to play badly and win the No. 1 pick for reconstruction. There are super talented rookies in the draft next year or the year after. For example, AJ Dibansa, born in 2007, is 2.06 meters tall.
