From Today it is the King of the Basketball

Price walked away and returned from defeat ...

Price's displeasure was clearly written on his face.

"The general manager of the pig head of the Magic, don't know the **** of satisfaction ..." Price returned from the office swearing constantly.

Well, different bosses said more, Liu Mang understood.

The first negotiation was rejected!

Price told the general situation, the Magic team is not satisfied with only Rahim, but also wants Prince and Jason Terry, and wants to send Juwan Howard's contract Go to the Eagles to match the salary ...

"Crazy, this guy is crazy." Liu Mang was frightened by the opening of the Lions general manager Lions.

How did this guy work for the Magic for so long? Liu Mang remembered that this guy was resigned by the Magic fans when he resigned in 2011 because of a lumbar injury and was unable to sit for the management position. That is, until 2011, the Magic did not take the initiative to dismiss him. The guy has been promoted to executive vice president.

What does the boss of the Magic map? The only acceptable reason for Liu Mang is that this guy's draft is really strong. No one in the gambling game will be sold out, and there will be no parallels in the high pick ... Otherwise, there will be only some unspeakable circumstances.

However, even if I had long known that the general manager of the Magic was a bit different from ordinary people, I did not expect it to be so funny. Rahim, Prince, Jason Terry, one of them, because of the refusal to renew the contract after the transaction, the value of the deal plummeted. Players, other teams are not willing to give decent chips, this can be used to change Kobe.

Change to Kobe?

Liu Mang immediately said: "Boss, ignore that guy first, they can't find a better bargaining chip than we gave, so we don't act so urgently, do something else, and discuss and discuss if the transaction is completed. , What to do in the future. "

"Do something else?" Coach Kruger and Price asked at the same time.

"Yes, other things, boss, can't change McGrady, can we change others ..." Liu Mang smiled smirk.

"Who to change?" Price didn't expect anyone else to make a fortune in exchange for Rahim. Obviously, Tracy McGrady would make a profit. Others would be like Ron Artes. Especially if the salary is too low, the opponent will not agree, otherwise it does not necessarily overlap with the position of the rest of the team. It may not be easy for someone who is used to it now.

Liu Mang Yin smiled and whispered Price ... The Price strangely went to call again, and called several times ...

...

An hour later, in a villa in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles.

"Asshole!" Kobe turned off the TV, and it was a bit reluctant to smash the TV, so Kobe stepped on the remote control, and then took out his mobile phone to make Liu Mang's call. The American version of "Hello, the user you dialed is turned off ..." Passing into Kobe's ear, Kobe almost smashed the phone, but finally bought a mobile phone that he could press with his finger. It was difficult to find, so he chose to rush into the training ground at home and began training to vent his anger ...

This morning, the media suddenly exposed that the Hawks applied to the Lakers for a deal. The specific details of the deal were not announced, but the trading object that the Eagles wanted to obtain was announced. It was precisely because of this trading object that this matter suddenly became hot. , Suppressing the news that the 76ers are preparing to replace Webber with a half team to form a double champion combination.

The whole world knows that Liu Mang and Kobe are not going to deal with it. OK is going to dissolve. It is already a matter of determination. The Lakers have also heard news of contact with multiple teams over there, but the Lakers are not in a hurry. They except Kobe and O’Neill. Others want to take whatever they want, and they were supposed to overthrow and rebuild. The Hawks want to trade with the Lakers. It is not surprising that the Hawks have enough chips to be exchanged for anyone in the Lakers. However, the Hawks It's not O'Neill but Kobe, which is quite surprising.

...

...

An hour before the time came back, after making a few calls, Price asked with some anxiety but some expectations: "Ace, I have let ESPN put the news out, and I also made a deal with the Lakers. But, what if the Lakers really agreed? "

Having the opportunity to get Kobe, McGrady, no matter which boss is excited, can get a first person in any position, the boss of any team will want to try as much as possible, a superstar, even if it is played Even worse, as long as it is not affected by strength in terms of age decline, injuries, etc., even if it is worse with the team, it will definitely have a greater effect than the ordinary starter.

Even sometimes a 30-year-old superstar can be obtained, and many team owners do it without hesitation.

Of course, Price wants to get Kobe or McGrady. Of course, when he joined the Magic before, he was a candidate for Hill ’s Pippen ’s McGrady. Of course, it is a better choice. Kobe has already competed with O’Neill for the boss and the Lakers. Crashed.

Liu Mang has n’t answered yet. Coach Kruger was just curious about what Liu Mang said. Now when he hears that he is applying to the Lakers for a deal, he quickly asks: "A deal to the Lakers? Who is the deal?"

"Ace suggested that I trade Kobe." Price replied honestly.

"Change Kobe? Ace, are you confused? Or should we ask Sharif to discuss and not leave?" Coach Kruger thought he could send Liu Mang to the hospital for a check.

"Kobe is the best shooting guard in the world! With him joining, our defense will not be much worse. Me and Ty Shawn plus him, the outside can be changed infinitely. He will also help our insiders to rebound. "Liu Mang laughed even more sinisterly."

Liu Mang didn't think the Lakers would choose 32-year-old O'Neal to avoid Kobe Bryant who only reached 26 in August. If Jerry Bass had a problem with his head, he would choose that way, so the odds of this deal are basically equal to zero.

Liu Mang asked Price to go to the Lakers to apply for a trade Kobe, and also contacted the media to publicize the trade application. First, it was to put pressure on the Magic team to show that he was not a McGrady side. Second, Since the general manager of the Magic makes himself uncomfortable, let Kobe be uncomfortable ...

It's so principled to blame Kobe for not trading in McGrady.

"..." Seeing Liu Mang's smile, Price and Kruger glanced at each other, and suddenly felt a little sympathy for Kobe ...

...

Ignoring the shameless trading tactics of Boy Liu, Coach Kruger probably knows that the boss and his disciples are determined to get a superstar back, so there will be many problems.

If you do n’t trade for McGrady, let ’s not talk about it. Coach Kruger did n’t sleep last night and has been thinking. The conclusion is that after losing Rahim, the top two defenses in the league are basically not. There may be again, Liu Mang's one-person rebounding strategy is difficult to reproduce.

It ’s okay to supplement Rahim ’s defense. It ’s always possible to get a similar one, but it ’s certainly not as good as the defensive end of three years, and the next season is the defending season. Other teams will not give the Eagles a chance. Running in, the Hawks can hardly win the league on defense in a year or two, just like the season just ended.

The main reason is the lack of a rebound leader. Liu Mang's style of play will start to change, and the offense must also start to diversify.

Coach Kruger told the story to Liu Mang and the boss, and if it is not handled well, it may be impossible.

Too many championship teams collapsed in the second year. Moses Malone, who is as strong as the 76ers, took the championship for the second year, and immediately Lotto got No. 5 to sign Buckley.

Hearing this, since Rahim was leaving, Liu Mang said: "Boss, coach, I heard that NO-HandCheck is about to start, right?"

"Yes, the 30th NBA Board of Directors is going to vote on this matter." Price replied that as a boss, he is also very busy. Any major decision in the league requires the bosses to agree.

"Boss, will you agree?"

"Of course, this is a great help for Ace's play." Price ridiculed unscrupulously.

Master's style of play? Master's play tricks you to provoke you! Liu Mang heard Price's meaning, rolled his eyes, and saw that the people next to him couldn't help it.

Liu Mang ignored this group of guys who still had a joke: "But this new rule will also make outside defense very difficult. We should be like this ..."

Liu Mang said his "prediction" of the development of the NBA in the next few years. He heard that Price and the coaching staff were stunned.

It ’s not that Price and Kruger coaches have no vision, but at this stage, almost no team can think of it. A NO-HandCheck can bring such a great impact to the NBA, and will make the future of the entire NBA towards a complete Development in unimaginable directions.

"... Of course, defense can win championships, even offensive basketball, Mike, our defense may now be of great use ..."

...

...

On the Magic team, General Manager Martins was waiting for another round of hawking quotes from the Eagles. He was ready to sell for the price. At that time, he lost O'Neal in vain. He now regrets it. The second preparation is to make money back from the loss.

But wait, wait, for a long time, I did n’t receive any calls from the Hawks, and it caught him off guard. The Hawks applied to the Lakers for a deal!

Kobe, McGrady, Iverson, Kidd, and now almost everyone thinks these four are the league's best outside players. Although Liu Mang won the MVP, it is similar to the youngest regular season MVP Derrick Rose in the future. In the second season after Ross got the MVP, the major strength list only ranked him in the seventh or eighth. Now MVP is the best player of the best team. According to most people, Liu Mang It was the light of the rest of the Eagles.

After knowing this news, Martins hesitated for a while. At noon, he still didn't wait for the Eagles' second phone call and couldn't help but call Price in the past, and then ... busy ...

I played several times, and I was busy ...

Throughout the afternoon, Martins did not get through to Price.

Originally, without Liu Mang, Tracy McGrady would not say that he would never renew his contract after being traded to reduce his trading value. Because of this matter, other teams offer almost no bargaining chips. Fear of having to use McGrady for a year, including the Rockets who most actively wanted to get McGrady, were reluctant to give too many chips. Francis and Yao Ming were reluctant to give, and the other Martins couldn't look down.

In the evening, something bigger that Martins appeared!

The Nets filed a trade request with the Hawks and want to use Richard Jefferson to trade Ratliff and Boozer!

The Nets want to supplement the inside. Carter and Kidd are now getting better and better. With Carter, Richard Jefferson seems to have more than one, and it will be the contract year, not to renew the contract. If you make an appointment, it will definitely affect the salary space of the team. The Nets finally made it possible to reduce the salary to 40 million US dollars after the end of the season, leaving only two major contracts, Kidd and Carter.

Therefore, digging the corners of the Eagles and strengthening themselves has become the goal of the Nets.

The management of the Nets has been doing very well in the early years of the century, otherwise it will not reach the finals for two consecutive years.

Of course, the news that the Nets applied for a deal was also revealed by the Eagles.

For a team that has just won the championship, there will always be people who want to dig in, especially those opponents, almost every year, so the media and fans do not find it strange.

But this seems to Martins, he seems to be "out"! Obviously he is the person with the initiative who owns McGrady, but he has a feeling of going out!

Obviously, if the Hawks get Richard Jefferson, then McGrady is not needed! Mainly, he did n’t know that Rahim was taking the initiative to leave, so suddenly there was no psychological initiative!

Like the Hawks who think that McGrady is the best trader to choose, getting the star of Rahim's current year, although there is a gap with the superstar, it is already the best return Martins feels, He just wanted more things.

By the next morning, something that made Martins even more unsettled appeared! He really started to panic!

...

At 8 am on June 20, the Hawks and the Jazz announced a deal. The Hawks used Carlos Boozer, the top 25 picks in the first round of 2005 to protect the draft. The deal was awarded by the Jazz in the first round of 2004. Sixth overall pick, 2005 second-round draft pick, 2006 first-round lotto protection draft pick, and 165th-ranked Bobby Ketchy drafted by the Jazz in 1981 in order to match the trade. .

In this transaction, the two teams even disclosed the details very clearly, of course, the Eagles side actively disclosed, because the Eagles did not have the 2006 first round draft pick, so if they accidentally fell outside the top five records in 2005 , Then the protected draft picks in 2005 will automatically become second-round picks in 2006 and 2007.

When the Hawks sent Boozer to the Jazz in accordance with the agreement reached with Sloan at the end of last year, Sloan finally breathed a sigh of relief, even if he was very unhappy with the sixth pick and the first round of 2006, but he was in the third This matter was already planned many years ago.

Of course, there was no Boozer at that time, and his plan was about a former wrestler who joined Illinois State University two years ago, a little fat man who was famous for pick-and-roll in high school. In the 02-03 season, the little fat man just finished playing Already selected for the Associated Press's All-American Best Team, so Sloan saw the rookie Boozer who was glowing in the Eagles that same year and immediately associated the two together.

Helping the Hawks and sending Ostertag to the Hawks is all about getting Boozer.

At four o'clock in the morning this morning, when Sloan was woken up by the phone, the old man was very impatient, he was hot-tempered, and he was most particular about what time to do, but when he saw the name of the person on the phone, he immediately called The phone was picked up, and a few minutes later, Sloan ran to the boss's house in the early morning, and the transaction was quickly confirmed.

The Jazz are celebrating with champagne, Martins feels terrible on the Magic!

The deal was supposed to be a slow talk, but since all teams were in a hurry this year, the Bobcats and Clippers traded draft picks just to make other teams start to be active, and the Hawks gave away a potential All-Star After the power forward gave the Jazz, the fuse lit by the Bobcats and Clippers in the trading market was finally time to detonate the explosive barrel!

On the morning of the 20th ~ www.readwn.com ~ There were more than a dozen big and small transactions, mainly for strong lineups in order to send players beyond the eight-man list to avoid white losses, weak teams are active Take over these players and send some basic salary veterans to the strong team ...

Martins saw those teams that originally found him applying for a deal, withdrawing one by one. The team who wanted to gamble on McGrady had no chips, and those who had chips were unwilling to give them. He was completely panicked.

...

...

Finally, I didn't sleep much for two nights. I was busy for two nights and two daytimes. It was more than nine o'clock in the evening on the 20th. After finishing the phone call, Price finally called out the secretary to celebrate with champagne.

From yesterday afternoon to evening, Liu Mang discussed with the coaching staff and the boss for a long time after his "prediction" for the next two or three years. Today, when the team is trading, he has not intervened in anything related to the transaction. .

He knows that if he participates in those transactions, he will definitely be affected by emotional factors, so as long as he is not a teammate ’s next home is particularly miserable, like in Minnesota and Tennessee, Liu Mang did not interject, Price asked him. At no time, he nodded.

When Rahim said he was leaving, Liu Mang had already broken his heart once. When Boozer was traded away, Liu Mang was already bleeding.

After drinking a large amount of 20,000 US dollars and a bottle of Champagne in a heavy breath, Liu Mang came to the lounge of the stadium without first contacting Rahim, nor Boozer, nor looking for Jason Terry cried and cried together. The two brothers left ... It seemed a bit inappropriate to say that it was gone. Anyway, it meant the same thing. Instead, he called McGrady's phone.

After connecting, Liu Mang did not wait for the other person to speak, and asked directly: "Tracy, I am ready to surpass Jordan. Would you like to be a Pippen?"
