Prepare to grab it! US media showed 5 potential trading plans for offseason for several teams that were eliminated in the first round, including the Rockets' 6-for-1 Antetokounmpo's addition of superstars, and the Lakers' 3-for-1 Miro strengthening the inside.


Trading plan 1: Magic 3 for 1 Anthony Simmons
Magic got: Simmons;
Trail Blazers got: Anthony Black + Pope + 25-year Nuggets first round pick (25th pick)

The Magic relied on defense to create a lot of trouble for the defending champion Celtics in the first round, but they also exposed a lot of offensive shortcomings.
This problem did not appear in the playoffs. During the regular season, the Magic ranked 27th in the league in scoring averages, and they could only score 93.6 points per game in the playoffs, ranking last among 16 playoff teams.
The Magic obviously need to introduce a backcourt scorer to solve the problem, so the double-season defender Simmons, who can average 19.3 points and 4.8 assists per game this season is naturally a good reinforcement target, especially in the case of Sharp and Henderson in the backcourt of the Trail Blazers.

Trading plan 2: Lakers exchange 1 Mitchell Robinson
Lakers get: Mitchell Robinson;
Knicks get: Vanderbilt + 25-year second round pick + 26-year first round swap.

The Lakers have obvious shortcomings in the interior, and were completely beaten by the Timberwolves in the first round. It is urgent to introduce 1-2 inside players to fill the shortcomings while further releasing Doncic's offensive influence.
Healthy Mitchell Robinson will be one of the perfect choices, he will provide the Lakers with the offensive end and the height, confrontation and frame protection blocks that the Lakers need.
Even though he is in poor health, this is why the Lakers have hope of getting him at a lower price, and after the Knicks introduced Towns, Mitchell Robinson's role was compressed, which might prompt them to choose Vanderbilt.

Trading plan 3: Heat 6 for 3 Marca
Heat gets: Marca + Sexton + Clarkson;
Jazz gets: Jovic + Wiggins + Rozier + Dunro + 25-year Warriors' first round pick + 29-year top five protection first round.

When the Heat lost Butler, they realized the value and significance of the stars. The team stopped in the first round, and Herro and Adebayo also exposed the problem of insufficient star quality.
Therefore, the Heat urgently need to find another star. If Riley does not want to completely adjust the existing core lineup because of a failure, then this deal is worth considering.
The Heat did not send away the real core players through the trade, but welcomed two elite-level role players, as well as Marca, the All-Star Rising Star.

Trading plan 4: Rockets 6 for 1 Antetokounmpo
Rockets get: Antetokounmpo;
Bucks get: Jaylen Green + Xiao Jia + White Devil + Alon Holiday + 25-year Suns first round + 27-year Suns first round.

Because Jaylen Green's performance in his first playoff journey was extremely poor, he fell into trading rumors. Antetokounmpo was also eliminated in the first round, but he had burned himself and the Bucks also overdrawn their future. If he wanted to continue winning the championship, he had to choose to join other teams.
If the Bucks are willing to accept such a 6-for-1 plan, the Rockets have no reason to refuse. Even if Xiao Jia performed well in the playoffs, it is not worth mentioning compared to getting Antetokounmpo.

Trading plan 5: Pistons get Ju Holiday
Celtics get: Stewart;
Pistols get: Ju Holiday + Cameron Johnson;
Nets get: T-Harris + Hauser + Suther + 26-year Pistons protect the first round pick.

The Pistons are only one step away from transformation. Ju Holiday will provide the championship experience this Pistons needs. The defense and scoring are perfectly in line with the needs of the Pistons and will become Cunningham's perfect partner.
More importantly, the Pistons also upgraded T-Harris to Cameron Johnson, who will provide the firepower and projection the Pistons need.
