Basketball trainer, I created a super giant

Chapter 38 One generation of versions and one generation of gods
"and many more."

Unseld clearly felt that Jordan was getting carried away, and quickly poured cold water on him, saying, "Michael, shouldn't we first consider why the Magic wanted to send Hill away? This is too abnormal!"

Last year, Hill was signed to a 7-year, $9300 million contract. Although he only played 4 games, Hill was reimbursed for the season.

But the Magic management wouldn't be so short-sighted as not to give Hill even a season.

Weren't they still fantasizing about Hill and McGrady partnering up to form the league's top backcourt combination, but after just one season, without even playing a few serious games, they gave up?
This doesn't make sense at all.

"Could there be something wrong with Hill's injury?" Unseld guessed.

After thinking about it, the only reason why the Magic gave up Hill at this time was that Hill's ankle had problems again and could not be healed, so the Magic had no choice but to give up.

The Wizards can't be a sucker and take over a useless star.

Collins and Higgins nodded beside them.

They were also thinking of this possibility.

But Jordan obviously didn't think so.

"What's the problem?" He slammed the table and said, "Who hasn't been injured and had a season-ending injury? I've even broken a bone. If you're injured, you just need to recover, right? Besides, there are physical examinations. Could they possibly be hiding an injury?"

"As for why the Magic wanted to send Hill away, who knows? You don't care why they did that. They're the Magic, the dumbest team in the league. They even sent away O'Neal and Hardaway. What else can't they do?"

In Jordan's view, the Magic management's operations are always out of touch with reality, and it is not surprising that they do something stupid.

The combination of O'Neal and Hardaway was so awesome that they could have stepped on me to reach the finals in the second year, but they were broken up by the Magic management.

"So don't hesitate any longer, just make a deal with the Magic. I have the final say on this matter. You, make the call quickly!"

Jordan's bossy side returned.

That's Hill.

Many people call him their successor.

More often than not, many media discuss him as an enhanced version of Pippen.

If he and Pippen could win six championships together, then he and Hill could win at least three more.

At the age of 38, he made a comeback three years later, won three championships again, and retired gracefully at the age of 41. His life was complete!

"This……"

Unseld looked embarrassed, but when it came to team management, Jordan really had the final say.

After a moment's hesitation, Unseld called Gabriel.

"What do you think, Wes? You must agree, right?" Gabriel seemed to have decided on the Wizards.

Unseld took one last look at Jordan.

Jordan glared at him, wishing he could grab the phone.

Unseld sighed and said, "John, you've made me a deal I can't refuse. It's a deal."

"Pleasant to work with."

Gabriel's tone was frighteningly calm. He exchanged a few more pleasantries and quickly hung up the phone.

Jordan could no longer contain his excitement and roared.

He kicked the deal plan on the ground again and shouted, "Hurry up, throw this garbage away for me."

How can Brand and Abdul-Rahim compare to Hill?
Looking at the excited Jordan, Unseld sighed silently in his heart.

He still felt there was something wrong with the deal.

He really couldn't understand how magic worked.

Moreover, it is not appropriate to agree to such a big thing without discussing it with the big boss Bolin.

It is said that Jordan is fully responsible for the operation of the team, but when it comes to decisions that really concern the future of the team, Pollin is still the one who makes the final decision.

But the only good thing is that judging from Jordan's reaction, he is most likely to make a comeback.

With this guarantee, the Wizards should have a much better time next season.

And in the final analysis, trading Hill wouldn't be a bad choice.

That's Hill.

……

Meanwhile, far away in Florida.

With the end of the Magic's tryout, Brown's tryout journey has officially come to an end.

Tang Sen and his group returned to Gainesville.

Now we have done everything we can, and all we have to do is wait for the draft in a week.

Inside the training hall, Brown took a weighted ball, took small, frequent steps, dribbled the ball like a guard, and weaved between small obstacles.

Tang Sen took some time to improve Brown's dribbling ability.

His offensive skills still need to be enriched.

Going to the low post, advancing methodically, and then finishing with a hook shot are too simple. If he really enters the NBA, he will be easily targeted.

He also needs a wider skill set that will allow him to launch threatening attacks from more positions on the court.

To achieve this, ball control ability must be improved.

If you can't hold the ball, everything is in vain.

Only by holding the ball can he use some face-to-face offensive methods, such as mid-range shots.

So shooting is the next project I plan to improve.

Of course, the most important task now is to train defense.

It is a suitable choice to first do a good job of defense, gain a firm foothold, demonstrate one's own value, and then consider continuing to improve other shortcomings.

You have good defense, at least you won't be a loophole on the court, which will make management more patient with you.

It's not even six in the morning yet.

Whether forced or voluntary, Brown adjusted his training time, getting up at 4:30 and starting training at 5:00.

Try to maximize the benefits of training.

He got up early, which made it difficult for Connors and the others, as they had to get up with him.

Now the four of them gathered together, yawning.

Tang Sen was still energetic and sat next to him reading a newspaper.

The season is over and the media's attention has shifted to the draft, trade rumors, and changes in the NBA next season.

According to media reports, there will be major changes in the NBA rules next season.

There are two things that can be confirmed now.

First, the time it takes to dribble the ball across the front court is reduced from 10 seconds to 8 seconds.

This change is minimal.

Second, accidental physical contact between players while defending will not be considered a foul.

There is a certain impact, but it is not a big problem.

The scale of calling this kind of foul is entirely up to the referee, and it is inherently subtle.

What really matters are the two things that are still uncertain.

There are rumors that the league will restart the defensive three-second rule starting next season.

In the 66-67 season, the NBA introduced the defensive three-second rule, but it was abolished after only two seasons. Now it is considered a rehash of the old issue.

The media has been analyzing this rule change for a long time, and it is generally agreed that it was aimed at O'Neal.

It's because O'Neal is too strong and too difficult to defend.

He squatted under the basket, dominating the inside and leaving everyone on the outside dumbfounded. Every time he broke through, he was blocked.

Secondly, there is news that the NBA will relax the zone defense starting next season.

The impact of this rule change is also extremely huge.

And as ESPN analysis said, it was still aimed at O'Neal.

In the past, zone defense was prohibited, so the only way to deal with O'Neal was to find a strong center to hold him down in the paint.

This is also the important reason why many heavy centers who have no skills but only good bodies can get big contracts and are in great demand.

Just to deal with O'Neal.

Apart from that, he could only go around and interfere with O'Neal's chance of getting the ball.

But the effect is limited, and the OK connection has caused many teams in the league to suffer.

But it’s different now. By releasing the double team defense, they can double-team O’Neal in the penalty area at any time.

That wasn’t allowed before, that was illegal defense.

It was only recently when Tang Sen was considering his defensive training plan that he noticed the news about the rule changes.

If the latter two items are really implemented next season, it will not only be trouble for O'Neal, but it will also be bad news for inside players like Brown.

The rules have changed. With each new version, there are new gods. Under different rules, the defensive strategy must change.
