[Introduction] According to reports, the Nets hope to get Grizzlies power forward Zach Randolph to make up for their lack of inside lethality,
And Pierce is likely to be sent to Memphis as a bargaining chip.
Nets expected to sign Randolph
On December 20th, , Russian local tycoons spent a lot of money to introduce Garnett and Pierce to the Nets in the summer. They thought that the playoffs would be easy for them.
But the ideal is very full, and the reality is very skinny.
With a group of All-Stars, the Nets have fallen into a downturn. They currently rank fifth from the bottom in the Eastern Conference with a record of 9 wins and 16 losses, and they were once ranked first from the bottom.
The poor record has already dissatisfied the local tycoons in Russia, and the expulsion of Frank from the coaching staff is the first step in his dissatisfaction measures. According to the latest news, the Nets may send Pierce to Memphis to get Randolph from the Grizzlies.
If this deal can be completed, it will be very good for the Nets. They will get a stable inside scoring point, which is currently the most needed position for the Nets.
Although Randolph is now over 30 years old, he has a wealth of experience in the playoffs and has maintained a sufficient competitive state.
On the contrary, the Grizzlies will not suffer. According to the current state of the Grizzlies, they should not have too many ideas about this season.
Pierce’s contract will end this season, and without Pierce and Randolph’s contracts, they have enough salary space to sign a menopausal, more dynamic player.
