Learning in the NBA can make you a god

Chapter 797: There can’t be any shit in the pot

"The Nets are the New York Kings!"

"Anthony is the new king of New York, and Lee is no longer good."

Seeing some of the Nets' royal media, Li Tian just smiled lightly, so what if he lost a game!

"After beating the Knicks without Yao, I really don't know where Anthony got the courage to brag. He's so naive!"

There are black Li Tian, ​​and there are also many fans who help him fight back. That's it, whether he wins or loses.

"Boss, don't look at this, let's continue training!" George saw his boss scrolling through his phone and was a little worried that his boss would be affected by these random reports in the media.

After thinking about it, Li Tian couldn't help but laugh to himself. He didn't know when he started to care about the media's comments.

"Fame kills!" He had no choice but to understand all this, and he immediately realized it, put down his mobile phone, and joined the team training.

"Hurry up, hurry up!" D'Antoni shouted from the side.

"Salinger, can't you run faster? Even Plumlee is faster than you. Go over there and run ten laps alone."

D'Antoni shouted angrily, pointing to a deserted area next to him.

He also made a decision in his heart. This guy must not stay any longer. In the last game, this guy dared to say "Finally lost" on the bench at the last moment!
No matter what, D'Antoni couldn't bear this. Even if he got some air, he didn't want to keep this guy. This year has a different meaning for the Knicks. Everything must make way for the dynasty.

"Right away, right now, get out and run!" he roared again. If it weren't for the assistant coach around him, he might have started a fight with Salinger. This guy was getting angry just looking at him.

******
Because of Sullinger's performance, the atmosphere in the Knicks locker room has undergone some changes. Bradley was affected by Sullinger and became more or less drifting.

"Damn it!" D'Antoni has already thought about trading. Since he wants to trade, he needs to get a higher bargaining chip.

Transactions require inspection. As an old guy who has been in the league for more than ten seasons, he is very good at this.

"The last request is to end this game early, do you understand?" In the visiting team's locker room, D'Antoni would not put Salinger in the starting lineup for inspection like before, so he could only delay the game, and then Increase his playing time.

"Understood, Coach!"

Seeing the familiar old opponent again, Li Tian just smiled slightly.

The Knicks launched a 10-0 offensive wave at the beginning, and the Bucks were directly beaten.The Knicks' starting lineup was replaced after only playing 7 minutes in the first quarter. Sullinger took George's place and entered the regular substitute lineup.

"Whoa!" Sullinger hit the basket and hit a mid-range shot. "Did you see that, the Knicks can't live without me now!"

Tobias Harris listened to Salinger's shouting and just smiled helplessly, thinking, "Are all rookies today so arrogant?"

2 points!
5 points!
A few minutes later, Sullinger continued to attack the basket and scored consecutively. Harris's defense was good, but the Knicks were better overall and they cooperated very well with each other. Harris' defense was still affected.

"Man, did you see that, as long as I have enough playing time, I can perform efficiently!" At the end of the first quarter, Salinger roared excitedly after being replaced.

This was the first time that he played for so long in the first quarter and scored 7 points in a single quarter. This performance can be said to be very dazzling.

When Beverly heard Salinger's shout, he just frowned slightly and said nothing. Salinger felt that his performance was too dazzling, and Beverly was blinded by his dazzling performance. .

112:95 After losing to the Nets, the Knicks ushered in a big victory, reversing the momentum from the previous game.

Salinger played 20 minutes and scored 15 points. His performance was very efficient.

Two days later, Sullinger played efficiently again, and the Knicks won another 108:87 victory.

Salinger once again performed amazingly, with 19 points, the highest score among the bench.Bill, the second in the new class, only scored 8 points under the special care of teacher Tony. A comparison between Salinger and Bill highlights Salinger's performance even more.

"I have to say that the Knicks' talent selection is really good!"

"Sullinger is another rising star for the Knicks!"

"I think the Knicks should give Sullinger more time. He may have a chance to compete for the best rookie!"

New York is a huge whirlpool of media. If you play well, you will be praised to the sky. If you play poorly, you will be thrown into the toilet. The media is not willing to take a second look.

Some people also question that Salinger's performance, just playing two games, may be just a coincidence and needs to continue to be observed.

The media thinks so, but some teams don't think so. The Knicks' vision for the draft in the past two seasons.The first one was George, then Stephenson and Jeremy Lin were selected, and Danny Green and Beverley were signed in the free market. Last season, Thomas was selected with the last pick in the draft, and his performance last season was explosive.

Take a closer look at the young Knicks, and none of them performs amazingly. The most important thing is George. His recent performance has a vague tendency to become an All-Star.

At this time, many fans left messages on the Knicks' official website asking the team to renew George's contract with the maximum salary in advance.

George is also struggling with this. Walsh has contacted him a long time ago. On the one hand, he is worried that his contract renewal will affect his boss's contract renewal. On the other hand, he also wants to rush to see if he can meet Li Tian's terms. Sign yourself a higher contract.

Of course, all this still has to wait for George to make a decision.

"Walsh, are the Knicks interested in making a trade?" Mogou immediately dialed Walsh's phone number.

This season, Jeremy Lin got more ball rights and the results were good, which made Mo Gou feel how wise the offseason deal was.

"Mo Gou, the Knicks don't need to trade at all now, don't they?" Before Walsh could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Mo Gou.

"No, no, no, any team needs to make a trade. Mosaic wants to get Yi, but I don't know what chips you want?" The original trade for Jeremy Lin was that on the one hand, the team lacked point guards, and on the other hand, it wanted to get Yi again. Chinese market, but Jeremy Lin’s effect is not that good.

So he came up with the idea of ​​​​A Lian, because he knew that Yao Ming would never return to Mosaic again, so he simply ignored the performance of A Lian and the annual salary of 1000 million was definitely a high-quality contract.He averaged 18 points, 9 rebounds and 1.4 blocks per game, and he has a high-quality contract, so Mogou is here.

"Go away, trade, that's impossible, he is not for sale to the Knicks." After saying that, he immediately hung up the phone, and Walsh didn't give Mo Gou a chance to speak again.He has seen the current Mosaic, and there is nothing. He can trade the Arab League with anything. The most important thing is that the Mosaic has been hollowed out, and he has no desire to trade.

"Damn, I'm so sorry!" Mo Gou couldn't help but slap himself a few times, he really regretted it.

The phone calls were so concentrated. Just after hanging up the phone on Mo Gou, the Magic general manager also called Walsh.

"Walsh, there is a deal. I wonder if you are interested?" the Magic general manager said with a smile.

The Magic are currently undergoing reconstruction, and they need young people with potential, so he wants to make a trade. While sending away veterans, he can acquire young players. This is the transaction that best suits the interests of the Magic.

However, this is just wishful thinking.

"Trade? What kind of deal? I don't think the current Magic can offer any kind of bargaining chip." The current Magic, the Knicks don't need the old players, and the Magic will definitely not be willing to trade the young players.

"We want to trade George, and the Knicks want to renew George's contract in advance. There will definitely be problems with Ball's salary space in the future, so..." Magic general manager said like a fox.

"Get out, get out. No matter what, the Knicks will never make any trade with the Magic again." Walsh is so angry. You are definitely kidding to trade George.

"Beep beep beep!" A busy tone came, and the Magic general manager was dumbfounded. He did not expect that the other party would hang up the phone directly. He knew that the Knicks would not trade George. When it came to trading George, he just wanted to prepare for the following transaction. Be prepared, now the other party hangs up the phone directly, which is a bit embarrassing.

"Walsh, don't be so angry. I won't mention George's trade anymore. How about trading Bradley?" The Magic general manager called again.

"What kind of chips are the Magic prepared to give away?" Trading Bradley can still be attempted.

"Well, the Magic sends Redick, and the Knicks only need to send Bradley and Sullinger. Of course, in order to equalize the salary space, the Knicks also need to add Danny Green." The Magic general manager spat, and he was so happy in his heart. , if this deal is completed, the Magic may have a chance to make the playoffs this season.

"Beep beep!" The busy signal came again, and Walsh almost dropped the phone. This deal was definitely a robbery. Trading Danny Green?Isn't he crazy? How can a substitute striker who is less than a million years old and averages 10+ per game be traded?

The general manager of the Magic was dumbfounded. He called again, but the other party didn't answer the call.

Walsh is still thinking about how to conduct the transaction. Both Bradley and Sullinger have been put on the trading shelf, and Sullinger is still the player who needs to be traded immediately.

Walsh is still thinking about how to send these two people out, and at the same time, the team needs to strengthen the positions.

"D'Antoni, if the team trades Bradley and Sullinger, what kind of players will they need to get back?" The transaction also depends on whether the team needs it. If not, then it is better not to trade and hide the Knicks. It's not that it can't be done.

"Actually, the team really lacks nothing now. On the contrary, the lineup is a bit rich. There are enough defenders, the same is true for the forwards, and the center is very rich. If there is a trade, you can try to trade for a power forward.

Next, the team may need to make changes. I want to try to let Lee play shooting guard and put George into the starting lineup. He needs to release his threat. In the playoffs, his shoulders need to shoulder more responsibilities. "

D'Antoni had considered it before, but because of George's early contract extension, he is only considering it now and has not started to implement it. This can be done after the early contract extension is completed.

Walsh is also a bit shady. They just want to squeeze George's new contract. They have no choice but to streamline the salary space, and which boss is not happy.There is Li Tian at the small forward position, and George has no complaints when he comes off the bench.

"No problem, I understand. Is there anyone you particularly want?" Walsh asked.

"This guy looks pretty good. I wonder if there is a chance to trade him." D'Antoni shared Vucevic's information.

After taking a look, it turned out to be a Magic player. Walsh couldn't help but feel confused. He still couldn't avoid the Magic. However, he was unwilling to trade many Magic players and was only interested in Vucevic.

"Okay, I'll try my best to complete the deal. If the deal cannot be completed, we have no choice but to give Salinger away for nothing. He will not be able to stay anyway."

Walsh also knew that Salinger had a great influence on the team, and Dolan asked him to send him away as soon as possible, even for free.

A week later, Salinger continued to play strongly, averaging 14 points per game, and he performed well against strong teams.

"Walsh, okay, I know the trade I mentioned before is a bit excessive. I hope to get Bradley and Sullinger from the Knicks. I don't know what price it will cost?" the Magic general manager called again. Walsh's call.

"We want Vucevic and the Magic's future first-round draft picks!" Walsh also struck hard.

Not only do they want to get Vucevic, but they also want to get the Magic's future first-round pick. The Magic will not agree to such a deal under any circumstances.

"No, no, no, absolutely impossible." He shook his head like a rattle and refused quickly.

"So what are you going to do?" Walsh asked.

"One for two, we can only send out one second-round pick, and the first-round one is absolutely impossible." said the Magic general manager.

There was another round of bargaining, but neither party could reach a consensus.

"Well, if we continue to talk like this, we need to get rid of the third party, otherwise we won't be able to carry out the transaction." The Magic general manager was helpless.

"We can join a third party. We can send Bradley + Sullinger. We also need first-round picks, otherwise I will not trade." Walsh said calmly. These are two first-round picks. If He would definitely not agree to it if it were to be replaced by Vucevic.

Although Bradley's average data per game is average, Salinger's recent performance is that of a lottery player. If he cannot get good chips in exchange, he really doesn't dare to make a trade.

One day later, the Knicks and Magic traded, bringing in the third-party Kings.

A three-party deal was concluded: the Kings sent Marcus Thornton + Travis Outlaw, and the Magic sent Nelson + Vucevic + the 2015 Lakers second-round pick and future first-round swap rights (former Tenth pick protection, if the Magic always have the top ten picks, it will continue to be postponed) + cash, the Knicks sent Bradley + Sullinger.

The Kings received Nelson + the 2015 Lakers' second-round pick + cash (part of the Magic's gift); the Magic received Marcus Thornton + Travis Outlaw + Bradley + Sullinger; the Knicks received Vucevic + Magic's future first-round swap rights + cash (part of the cash sent by the Magic).

"I said, the team doesn't need a rat turd!" Li Tian said to all the players in the locker room. This is not the first time. He said this after sending Thomas away last season.

"Fuck, luckily I haven't been too wild recently!" Stephenson patted his chest. He couldn't help it. He had been a little drifting recently. Hearing this sentence and seeing the team's transaction, he understood all this.

No matter who you are, no matter what your performance is, as long as you have a bad attitude, you will be sent away.
