On December 22, another deal about the Timberwolves was reported in the league.

As the focus of the entire league, all news about the Timberwolves will spread immediately.

Especially after reaching a deal with 76ers, the Timberwolves currently have only 14 people on the 15-man roster.

This means that the Timberwolves can sign a free agent next. No matter whether the player is a career veteran or a potential rookie, as long as the Timberwolves' salary space allows, the Timberwolves will still take the initiative in strengthening things.

However, before the Timberwolves signed a free agent, the Timberwolves' official website announced that the team had officially reached a deal with the Houston Rockets.

In this deal, the Timberwolves will send Chinese player Wang Zhizhi to exchange for the draft in 2004, but the European player Vasris Spanoris, who has just landed in the NBA this year.

When the league teams heard that the Timberwolves had reached a deal with the Rockets, everyone's first reaction was to be frightened.

I was afraid that the Timberwolves would complete the reinforcement in the transaction, making the already difficult new season even more suspenseless.

Fortunately, the Timberwolves and the Rockets only made a small deal, which was not enough to change the overall strength of the two teams, and could not change the current chaotic league structure.

And according to rumors, a large part of the reason why the Timberwolves and the Rockets reached this deal was that Timberwolves head coach Luke wanted to fulfill Wang Zhizhi's career, so he traded Wang Zhizhi to a team that suited him.

The Timberwolves are recognized as quasi-dynastic team in the league today. The goal of the past two seasons is definitely to win the championship. In this team atmosphere, Wang Zhizhi can get very limited playing time.

Moreover, the team is simply impossible to formulate tactics around Wang Zhizhi, while Rockets coach Montgomery, who just reached a deal with the Timberwolves, is a coach who makes good use of the projective inside line.

This led to the fact that when Montgomery proposed to get Wang Zhizhi through trading, Luke chose the beauty of adulthood and chose an old acquaintance who had a lot of connection with him in Europe in trading chips.

The most widely circulated statement in the outside world is the statement, and this statement has also been recognized by industry insiders, as if the Timberwolves traded Wang Zhizhi to the Rockets for the sake of adulthood.

After all, there is already a successful Chinese player in the Rockets. Even if Wang Zhizhi performs on the stadium, he doesn't have to worry about being excluded in the locker room.

Since McGrady's decline in form due to injury, Yao Ming has become the soul of this Rockets. As Yao Ming's Chinese compatriot, Wang Zhizhi doesn't have to worry about getting along with the Rockets.

From this point of view, Wang Zhizhi is much luckier than Yao Ming.

In addition, although rumors spread from outside are rumored, the league teams still asked scouts to check all personal information about Spanoris to determine whether Spanoris is a hidden genius.

The Timberwolves' eyes for people are too vicious, so vicious that people can't believe that Luke would give the Rockets a gift with kindness.

However, when the league teams checked all the personal information about Spanoris since he was born, they found that Spanoris had no highlights except for his delicate skills and extremely high ball quotient. His playing style on the court was like Canadian star Steve Nash.

Even though Spanoris has a high popularity and reputation in the European League, the Rockets believe that Spanoris cannot adapt to the intensity of the NBA game, so they kept Spanoris on the bench.

It was seriously inconsistent with the verbal promise of recruiting Span Norris from Europe, which led to Span Norris breaking with the Rockets management, and even forced the agent to force the management to hold the management many times, indicating that he wanted to return to Europe to play.

Seeing that Span Norris was not like a potential genius, the league teams finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Luke's ability to recognize gold with keen eyes really made other teams frightened, fearing that every Timberwolves' deal could make the team stronger.

Now the Timberwolves' overall lineup is strong enough. If the Timberwolves are allowed to continue to strengthen, I am afraid that the championship trophy can be booked in advance.

But just as everyone else outside wondered why Luke suddenly became kind-hearted, Spanoris's arrival made Luke happy.

After all, at this stage, no one except Luke knows what the name Span Norris represents in European basketball.

Spanoris, born in 1982, is only 24 years old this year. Spanoris is far from legendary like later generations. Even in European basketball, he is just a very shining star.

But it was from these two years that Span Norris' physical fitness and reading competition ability began to improve wildly.

Until later, he became the scoring champion of European basketball history, making Span Norris a veritable number one player in European basketball.

If Michael Jordan's status in the NBA is unshakable, then a few years later, the name Span Norris is also unshakable in the European basketball world, and is even more respected than Michael Jordan.

Spanoris won the Champions League three career, 7 Champions League best team, and was also elected as the European Player of the Year for two consecutive years from 2012 to 2013.

In addition, Spanoris won 7 Greek League championships in his career, 4 Greek Cups, 3 Greek League MVPs, 8 Greek League All-Stars, 10 Greek League Best Team, and 5 Greek League assists kings.

As for why there is no scoring champion in personal honor, because Span Norris is the historical scoring champion of European basketball, fans believe that using the season scoring champion to measure Span Norris is an insult to Span Norris.

It is worth mentioning that at the World Basketball Championship that just ended this year, Spanoris also led the Greek team to defeat the American Dream Seven team 101:95, hanging up the American men's basketball team throughout the game, and using repeated breakthroughs to make the "Flash" Wade have no temper at all.

The reason why Spanoris, the "king of Europe" in his previous life, did not make a name for himself in the NBA was mainly because that old guy Jeff Van Gundy despised European players like Spanoris very much.

So Spanoris, who was fooled by the Rockets' management, basically had no playing time. After the Rockets spent a depressed season, Spanoris resolutely decided to return to Europe.

Even if the Rockets management traded him to the Spurs, Spurs coach Popovich also promised to give him a lot of playing time. Spanoris was still unmoved and was full of disappointment with the NBA, and was determined to return to European basketball to play.

Spanoris' grievance at that time was like Kobe who went to Europe from the NBA to play. As a result, the European basketball coach thought Kobe's playing style was too unique and was not suitable for the European basketball system, so he kept Kobe on the bench.
