The first day of the free market: More than 30 transactions were completed, three winners and two losers were born, and the pattern changed drastically

The free market has reached more than 30 operations on the first day, including signing and transactions. Each team has completed a certain degree of lineup supplement and adjustment in a short period of time. Of course, some teams have not been able to complete the lineup supplement until now (before posting) on ​​the first day. But there are not many quality players left in the free market, and if they want to supplement it, they may have to complete it through trades later. On the first day of the free market, some companies were happy and some were sad.

Winner Rockets. The biggest winner in the first day of the free market and even since the offseason is the Rockets. They completed contract renewals and traded to get Durant, perfectly replenishing the lineup. On the first day of the free market, they completed two key signings. First of all, he signed Finney Smith with a 4-year contract of 53 million, which compensated his wing defense well. After all, Dillon's departure still gave them certain problems in their defense, and now this problem has been solved. The second one is that they got Capela with a three-year $21.5 million contract. Although it involves signing and then changing, this supplement is still crucial to the Rockets. Last season, Capela averaged 8.9 points, 8.5 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 1 block per game. His arrival can solve Adams' potential injury problems and increase the depth of the inside. The 12 operations from the offseason to the present have allowed the Rockets to build a luxurious lineup, with the ability to stir up the situation in the Western Conference and strive for the championship.

Winner two Nuggets. The Nuggets completed a 2-for-1 deal. They sent Porter Jr. and the 32-year unprotected first-round pick to the Nets in exchange for Cameron Johnson. This operation is a win for the Nuggets. First, they got rid of Porter Jr. who was declining and his big contract in exchange for a Cameron Johnson who could improve the lineup. After all, his performance on the defensive end is better. The deal helped the Nuggets save $40 million, a $16.8 million deal exception, and also lowered the team's salary to the luxury tax line.

They then signed Bruce Brown to further supplement the lineup. It has to be said that these two Nuggets' operations have improved the team's combat power and solved the team's dilemma. Of course, I sent away the only 32-year first-round pick that can be moved. For the Nuggets, it has further overdrawn the future. It can be said that it is a battle of back-to-earth. The situation of the team in the future depends on the performance of the new season.

Winner Three Eagles. The Eagles were definitely making a fortune in silence on the first day. The outside world paid little attention to them, but they completed their operations one after another. First, they got Alexander Walker in the form of signing first and then changing, and signed a four-year contract of 62 million; the Timberwolves got a future second-round pick and cash. Alexander Walker was a key part of the Timberwolves' lineup last season, averaging 9.4 points, 3.2 rebounds and 2.7 assists per game in the regular season, and his three-point shooting percentage was 38.1%. He can form a team's defense on the outside with Daniels.

They then signed Kennard, an excellent shooter with 11 million a year, with his three-point shooting percentage reaching 43.3% last season, and it is reported that Trae Young played an important role in both operations. And they also received future draft picks and cash in Capela's operations. The operation of the Hawks has also been crucial since the offseason. They had previously obtained Porzingis in the trade, and their lineup can be said to have been further improved. Whether they can break through the playoffs in the new season will see their performance.

Loser is the Lakers. The only operation of the Lakers so far is to sign Laravia for 12 million in two years, but the team's current dilemma is still not resolved. The center position was intercepted one after another, and Daluo and Connet signed contracts one after another; even the flanks also appeared loopholes. With Finney Smith's departure, the team needs to seek further supplements in the future. All that is left for them is Ayton and Horford, but the Lakers face more competition if they want to compete for them, and many teams have set their sights on these two players. Interestingly, according to Shams, the Lakers have focused on the free market in 2027, hoping to retain salary space and sign a maximum-paid player.

Loser two warriors. The Warriors have not had any operation so far. Not only has the adjustment not been completed, but they have also built one. Looney, who had been with the team for 10 years, left the team, and joined the Pelicans on a two-year, 16 million contract to reunite with Poole again. The Warriors are also facing difficulties at present, and Kumingga's stay or stay is still indecisive, and the team's inside line also needs additional supplements. There is currently news that if the Warriors can't catch Horford, they can pay attention to Boucher, while they are interested in keeping Peyton Jr. and competing for Melton.

In general, with the continuous completion of signings of various teams, the pattern of the West has changed. The traditional strong teams Lakers and Warriors are no longer as attractive as in previous seasons, and can attract more players to join the base salary. On the other hand, with the Rockets strengthening and the Nuggets' trading, their competitiveness will be further improved, and the situation in the West will become more intense in the new season.
