NBA: The best team doctor in history

Chapter 210: 210 season begins, Yao Ming joins forces with James

This is what the shareholder who owns 20% of the Trail Blazers said, Ade must believe it!
So Ade's mood suddenly improved a lot.

In fact, in his opinion, a contract renewal with an annual salary of several million would be enough!
He has to take care of his mother and his newborn son!

In order to give him the best conditions, he has to make money quickly during these golden decades.

"Take these Chinese medicines on time. Director Fang also gave you self-help methods for when you feel uncomfortable. I hope you won't have to use them again in the future."

"No problem! Thank you, doctors!"

Ade's agent originally wanted to go to the hospital to pay the bill and transfer money to the two directors separately, but it turned out that the fees had already been paid.

This was not paid by Jiang Ming, as Jiang Ming did not have the time, but it was directly cleared by Dongli Hospital.

It is an honor for Dongli Hospital that NBA stars can receive treatment here.

As for transferring money to two people separately, there is no need to do that. No one will accept it.

And Ade's agent is actually very powerful.

The next day, in order to thank Dongli Hospital, a press conference was held directly in the hospital conference room. Aldridge spoke personally about his situation to reassure the fans. He also mainly thanked Dongli Hospital and Director Jiang Ming and Director Fang Xiaofeng who treated him.

This press conference also helped promote Dongli Hospital, and the hospital director was so happy that he was smiling from ear to ear.

The forums are all discussing this news:
"It's okay! It shouldn't happen so often."

"This is the first time I see an NBA player not returning to the NBA for treatment but getting treatment in a Chinese hospital. Awesome!"

"Me too, Jiang Ming is awesome! He cured it right on the spot."

"It's not a cure. Heart problems are not that easy to cure. It can only be said to be a protracted battle. But with the Chinese medicine decoction of the miracle doctor Jiang Ming, I can keep it from recurring."

"Luckily Ade came out and said it himself. I was so scared. What's going on?"

"The Trail Blazers still need Ade. One of the twin towers must have shooting ability, otherwise it will not work."

"Yes, everyone always says that in the series against the Spurs, Aldridge played just one more game and they beat the Spurs, which shows how important Aldridge is!"

"So he is still in the growth stage. If he had the ability of Gasol, he would have signed a maximum salary contract long ago."

"But this time his arrhythmia is likely to reduce his contract renewal value."

"Man, it's great that you didn't retire right here! With this disease, no one would want you even if you were to change teams!"

"That's right. Jiang Ming is so awesome that he immediately terminated the Nike event. I heard that the people at Nike were stunned on the spot."

"By the way, does anyone think Fang Xiaofeng is handsome?"

“Are all Chinese doctors going for the appearance route?”

"Haha, which one should I choose between Fang Xiaofeng and Jiang Ming? I'm so confused."

"Hahahahaha!"

"I wish you good health, Ade!"

"bless!"

“Bless together!”

2 months later.

NBA 2009-2010 season training camp begins.

Curry and Danny Green reported first.

The last person to report was not Aldridge. Aldridge has become stronger now, and his heart examination showed no problems. The NBA league confirmed that he could play in the new season.

They were not staff members. For example, Jiang Ming arrived early just to prepare the latest Chinese medicine for Ade.

The latest is Danny Green, and the reason may be a little unbelievable.

Because he wanted to check in a white snake and a golden python that he raised by plane, but he was stuck for several days. It was not until finally that he brought his two beloved pets over.

"Don't bring him to the team, it's scary."

Fang Xiaotong and other female employees were shocked when they heard this. Is there such a habit?

But in fact, many Americans raise snakes. Not to mention raising snakes, raising snakes is just the most normal thing.

Danny Green smiled innocently:
"Don't worry, it's already in a big glass tank. It can't escape. Even if it escapes, it won't come to the stadium. The house I rented is far away."

Jiang Ming's words made Danny Green dare not laugh:
"It's okay. Let your pet come over. This kind of snake is delicious when its internal organs are removed and soaked in medicinal wine."

"Director Jiang, you have such a cruel heart." Danny Green's eyes changed with fear.

"Hurry up and train!"

Fang Xiaotong and Jiang Muyan were laughing secretly, this crazy nurse is so nice!

After the end of the preseason, the annual shareholders' meeting will be held again.

A year ago, Jiang Ming was just sitting there doing nothing, but he eventually discovered Paul Allen's lung cancer risk.
This also led to him sitting directly next to Paul Allen on the stage this year.

This year's shareholders' meeting is still very serious.

Because the Trail Blazers did not perform well in the preseason, especially the rookies, who did not perform well, Curry's shooting percentage of 35% did not seem to match his sixth pick.

Fortunately, the top five players also performed mediocrely, especially Rubio, who was ranked fifth. In the preseason, which was also his NBA debut, he scored 0 points and 6 assists, which was not bad.
In the basketball world, it is very difficult for a starting point guard to score 0 points in the whole game, so he was directly hailed as Mr. Lu by Chinese fans.

And there is no major change for the Trail Blazers, but other teams are ready to make some moves.

Therefore, with the rookies' mediocre performances in the past two years, the team is still very nervous about the new season.

At the beginning, everyone was analyzing the changes in the free market and the team's goals and requirements. Paul Allen also said it directly:
"Don't worry about your reputation. Trade if you can, sign if you can. The regular season hasn't started yet, so there's still time!"

Nate Robinson signed a one-year contract extension with the New York Knicks, who continued to look for a young and strong point guard to pair with after selecting Jordan Hill.

And also recruited Sun Yue
Jiang Ming was stunned. Was the Knicks under a curse?
It’s obvious that Sun Yue can’t play in the NBA.

It’s better to have Xu Yong!

A week ago, Knicks president of basketball operations Donnie Walsh announced that the team had signed Chinese player Sun Yue in the free agent market.

Previously, The New York Times revealed that the two parties signed a partial guarantee contract.

Sun Yue was selected by the Lakers with the 2007th pick in the second round of the draft in 40. He officially signed with the Lakers after the Beijing Olympics, becoming the fifth Chinese player to enter the NBA after Wang Zhizhi, Battelle, Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian.

After winning the 2008-2009 NBA championship with the Lakers last season, Sun Yue did not participate in the Lakers' summer league, but returned home to prepare for the Asian Championships.

On August 2009, 8, the Lakers announced the release of Sun Yue after renewing Farmar's contract.

Moreover, Jiang Ming just flipped through some information and knew that Sun Yue was the key for the Knicks to enter the Chinese market, because Sun Yue's performance in the summer league was very poor.

In addition, on the Knicks lineup, whether it is Chris Duhon, Nate Robinson, Larry Hughes or rookie Toney Douglas, they will all pose a challenge to Sun Yue.

That is to say, Sun Yue's playing order is still very low. Therefore, Jiang Ming believes that this is what Dolan uses to sell tickets. This year, the Knicks did not get the "Internet celebrity player" Curry, and the season ticket sales of the Knicks were the lowest in history.

That's why they first signed the shortest and strongest player on earth, the dunk king Nate, and then recruited Chinese players to share the Chinese market pie.
Having been the vice president for a year, Jiang Ming could tell at a glance what the purpose of these transactions was.

For example, NBA veteran Allen Iverson is about to sign with the Grizzlies. The 96 No. pick described his meeting with the Grizzlies owner on Weibo and was the first to reveal the news that he was about to join the Grizzlies.
This also belongs to the small ball market speculation and ticket selling.

You want to say that this signing is to help Iverson win the championship? No one believes it.

The Clippers' announcement on their official website that they have renewed the contract with restricted free agent Steve Novak is a real reinforcement.

Griffin should be accompanied by a shooter!

The Boston Celtics are about to sign former Pacers swingman Marquis Daniels tomorrow to supplement the Celtics' acclaimed defensive capabilities.

The Celtics also signed forward Green Davis to a two-year, $630 million contract.
This is the rhythm of young blood taking over.

Odom, who the Trail Blazers had been eyeing for before, finally returned to the Lakers. The two sides signed a four-year contract with a total amount of 3300 million US dollars.

This is a compromise and he lowered his price to renew his contract with the Lakers. After all, he is the main player of the Lakers and he also wants to win two consecutive championships with the team or even create a dynasty.

Another thing worth noting about the Trail Blazers is that what Jiang Ming is most concerned about is that the championship-contending teams are making significant moves.

Just because they felt they were almost winning the championship, they made targeted changes to the original lineup.

The first is the Magic, who were runner-up last season.

After being defeated in the finals, the Magic learned their lesson and sent Alston, Tony Battie and Courtney Lee to the Nets in exchange for Carter and Ryan Anderson.

This means that the flying man Carter will assist "Superman" Howard next season.

But in fact, Jiang Ming felt that Alston played quite well, but the starting point guard Nelson did not play well after his comeback.

But how can I put it? The Magic probably want to face off against the four major shooting guards.

It's just that Carter's ability is a bit worse than Kobe's.
Ryan Anderson is pretty good, his shooting is top-notch, but Courtney Lee was traded?
Then who will defend Kobe?

Carter?
Jiang Ming doesn't even think the Magic can make it out of the Eastern Conference next season. Is this lineup purely based on offense?

But anyway, on paper, the Magic actually made a profit from this lineup.

Just because Jiang Ming thinks that someone is not good enough doesn’t mean that other people think so.

And it is true that a move can bring life to some players, and some players can be reborn by changing teams.

After the Magic and the Nets complete this deal, the Magic will get another All-Star level player to help Dwight Howard continue to launch a stronger impact on the NBA championship next season.

The Magic already have three All-Star players in their roster: Dwight Howard, Rashard Lewis and Jameer Nelson.
Carter's joining will make the Magic a strong contender for the Eastern Conference championship next season. If the Magic can find a way to sign back Turkoglu, who will choose to opt out of his contract and test the free agent market this summer, the Magic will be even stronger.

For the Nets, they will achieve their goal of cutting costs through this deal with the Magic.

Alston and Tony Battie's contracts will enter the final year. After trading for them, the Nets will free up $2010 million in salary space in the summer of 1650, which will bring the Nets' total salary under the salary cap.

Through this deal with the Magic, the Nets will be able to save up to $4000 million in total expenses.

If the deal is finally completed, the arrival of Courtney Lee will provide the Nets with a young shooting guard with great potential.

So it means saving money for the boss and giving the team a future.

This is also the reason why the Trail Blazers shareholders' meeting brought up this case.

It is a hint to management that it should make such a deal, which can create a sensation and save money at the same time.

“It’s easier said than done.”

Jiang Ming and Larry Miller and other management staff looked at each other. The bosses wanted to create a gimmick, and it was a nice idea.

Fortunately, I am a boss who also serves as a manager, and I have to think about my own affairs according to my position, otherwise I would definitely have the same idea.

After all, having played that kind of basketball manager game, who doesn’t want their team to have a big deal?
It was the same when I was a fan. Every offseason I hoped that the team would trade for my favorite players so that they could join forces.

You know what, it really does exist.

That's No. 23, James is really crazy.

The Phoenix Suns and the Cleveland Cavaliers reached an agreement to trade Shaquille O'Neal for Ben Wallace, Sasha Pavlovic, this year's second-round draft pick No. 46, and some cash.

Jiang Ming's subconscious thought was:

"So old?"

In his opinion, it would be better to go all in on Yao Ming!

Because the person who had been leaving messages before was Yao Ming.

The Great Shark is too old!
现年37岁的沙奎尔-奥尼尔在08-09赛季场均砍下17.8分，8.4个篮板和1.4次盖帽。

In his 18 seasons in the NBA, O'Neal averaged 24.7 points, 11.2 rebounds and 2.4 blocks per game, and was hailed as the most dominant center in history.

But don't be fooled by the statistics. Look at the performance of the Sharks in the Suns last season. They were exhausted at critical moments and stood still on defense.
With James?

It’s better not to trade.

Compared with O'Neal's brilliance, Wallace is unique in defense. He was elected Player of the Year four times and was selected to the NBA's first and second defensive teams six times. With his help, the Pistons won the championship in 6.

Wallace moved from the Pistons to the Bulls in 2006 and joined the Cavaliers in 2008, but he was plagued by injuries and did not bring any substantial help to the Little Emperor.

So that might be the reason for the trade.

Sharks add bargaining chips to Emperor's contract renewal?

After all, the Emperor will be a completely free agent next year. As long as he enters the free market, he is bound to be snapped up. Is this the only way the Cavaliers can keep him?
Because McGowan also said that even if they really wanted to pursue Chandler and Yao Ming, they would not let go of either of them and the prices they asked for were very high.

Jiang Ming secretly checked Hupu:
"The Cavaliers' trade of O'Neal is a robbery; the Emperor acquires Shark and will unify the league"

"It is impossible for Yao Ming to transfer to the Cavaliers this summer, and joining forces with James may be next year"

"Suns media applauds Sharks trade: says it can save at least $900 million"

"It's a win-win situation again. I wish our team could make such a deal someday."

The furniture boss and shareholder said enviously.

Jiang Ming shook his head in disbelief:
"I don't think a trade is necessary. For example, our team's small forward is not strong enough right now. We also have a tradition of training rookies. We can get a small forward in the free market to train him."

Paul Allen also nodded:

"Yes, unless we can finalize a deal that can really win the championship, there is no need for such a big deal, because our players are not yet due for contract renewal, and we mainly focus on new players."

McGowan could still guess what Jiang Ming meant:
“You want us to give a two-way contract to that undrafted forward from your country???”

Don’t mention it, if Yao Ming teamed up with LeBron back then, there would really be a chance, because Yao Ming can shoot.
