What operational ability? Give up Harden for 6 million, the new four young masters he trained will sign 920 million this summer
2:40pm, 11 September 2025【Basketball】
On September 11, an excellent general manager in the NBA made too much bonus for the team. Look at Stevens helping the Celtics win the championship easily, Connery created a championship lineup for the Nuggets, and then created a grand formation in the Timberwolves to help the team reach the division finals for two consecutive years. After veteran general managers such as Danny Angie and Riley entered the end of their careers, these young general managers have begun to stir up the league and lead the team to rise strongly.
Speaking of general manager, there is another one that cannot be ignored. He is the general manager of the Thunder, Mr. Pu. This person was questioned back then. In 2012, the Thunder relied on the combination of the three young masters of Durant, Westbrook and Harden to reach the finals. Durant, the oldest at that time, was only 23 years old. As long as they were given time, it was only a matter of time for the Thunder to achieve the dynasty in the future, but in order to save 6 million, he actually gave up Harden. In the end, the third young masters of the Thunder left the team one after another, and they missed the opportunity of the dynasty.
And Presti was labeled as a stingy, and even so, the Thunder did not choose to give up Presti. The management of this team is warm. Donovan has such poor ability to lead the team. They also thought about keeping Donovan, but Donovan left by himself. Even though they knew that it was impossible to win the championship around Westbrook, they still formed a winning lineup around Westbrook, allowing Westbrook to happily swipe the data. In the end, Westbrook chose to leave.
As time goes by, everyone knows how strong Presti is. He selected three MVPs for three consecutive years from 2007 to 2009, and this draft vision is also amazing. After Westbrook left, Presti began to play his excellent operational ability, got Alexander through trades, got Josh Gidey in the 21st draft, got Jewish and Chet in the 22nd draft, and won Carson Wallace in the 23rd draft. Through a series of operations, they quietly formed a championship lineup.
In the 23-24 season, the Thunder relied on the performance of the third junior, and they achieved the first place in the Western Conference, but in the playoffs, because Gidey was targeted, they eventually lost to the Mavericks and missed the championship. In the offseason, Presti sent Giddy away in exchange for the puzzle Caruso. Although Giddy has the potential of a cornerstone, the Thunder team has two more excellent ball-holding cores than him. Jewish and Alexander, Giddy has no effect in the team, so he chose to give up.
After getting Caruso and signing Harten, the Thunder last season was stronger than before. They achieved the league's first record in the regular season and eventually won the championship. Alexander, who traded George, won the regular season MVP, Finals MVP and scoring champion. Not only did he have excellent draft vision, but his operating ability has always been underestimated. After Westbrook confirmed his departure, Presti got several first-round picks with excellent operations, of which Jewish was obtained in the trade of George.
They have won Paul, Kemba Walker and Horford. These guys lost their value outside, but after the Thunder got the ball, they proved themselves again and helped the Thunder get the right chips. Presti looks better than before, and he is also more mature. With the experience of the three young masters in the past, Presti is no longer stingy. He is willing to pay a big contract for the team's core members to keep them. Alexander got a four-year, super maximum salary contract of 280 million, becoming the first player in history to have an annual salary of 70 million.
Jewe, as the second leader of the team, also played a good role in the playoffs. His function is similar to Alexander, and it is a bit like Pippen around Alexander. Jewewe got a five-year and 240 million contract in the offseason. He was selected for the Best Team and Best Defensive Team last season, and was also selected for the All-Star. This is an incentive bonus contract, with a maximum of 287 million in five years. Although Chet seems to have a higher ceiling than Jewish, his attendance rate in the past few seasons is not high. The Thunder could have considered renewing him next summer, but he still gave him a five-year, 251 million contract extension.
The three young men won a total of 820 million yuan, and Gidey, who Presti gave up, signed a four-year and 100 million yuan contract with the team during the offseason. Although he was given up by the Thunder, he is not bad. He is just not suitable for the team. Not being able to be the core of the Thunder does not mean that he cannot do contracts from other teams. After joining the Bulls, he performed well. After last season's All-Stars, he averaged 21+10+7 per game. The Bulls planned to give him a four-year and 80 million contract and directly refused. After that, he gave four-year and 88 million contracts, he also refused.
In desperation, the Bulls gave him a big contract of 100 million. Even so, the Bulls made a profit. Giddy led the Bulls to win 15 games in the last 20 games of the regular season. His ability to lead the team is obvious to all, and building a team around him is more promising than LaVine. Having said that, what do you want to say about Thunder and Presti? Welcome to leave a message for discussion.
