NBA: Since James left the Cavaliers

Chapter 19 Long Rui's Advice

"Two years?"

Hearing this answer, Scott immediately questioned.

In fact, the offer made by Cavaliers general manager Griffin is not low, 3000 million for two years, which is almost the treatment of a superstar in this era.

You must know that James, who brought his talents to the South Coast this season, is only paid 450 million this year.

Scott was angry not because of the salary of this contract, but because of the number of years, two years is really short.

In his opinion, with Long Rui's performance, he should sign a long-term contract of at least four years.

However, as the general manager of a team, Griffin has his own plans.

After all, Long Rui just came out of nowhere, and he only played two games. Although his performance is amazing enough, who can guarantee that he can maintain such an incredible state?
And the most important point is that after James left, the Cavaliers have clearly entered the reconstruction period, and every move must be taken with extreme caution.

Once a wrong step is made, it is likely to cause the entire team to go further and further down the road of reconstruction.

Throughout the history of NBA teams, many teams have suffered a setback due to the ignorance of the management. Obviously, Griffin is not willing to take risks, and he does not want to be the team's sinner.

"Any questions?"

Griffin looked at Scott with an unhappy face, and responded calmly.

After all, Scott is just a head coach, and he is the general manager of the team.

"This is a stupid decision!"

Scott roared again, but it didn't change Griffin's decision.

At this time, Long Rui suddenly took a step forward. He patted Scott, and then said to Griffin: "No problem, but if the team doesn't get any reinforcements during this period, I will definitely leave."

"In addition, I have another request. No matter what, you have to find a way to exchange for Warriors guard Stephen Curry."

After saying these words, he picked up a pen, signed his name on the contract, and then turned and left.

As a time traveler, Long Rui knew very well that if history followed, the Cavaliers would win the No. [-] pick and sign Irving after this season.

Owen has a very good personal offensive ability, but his ability to lead the team has been questioned, and his character is not what Long Rui likes.

And this is just a normal historical trajectory. Now that there is a spoiler like Long Rui, it is almost impossible for the Cavaliers to get the No. [-] lottery.

Compared with Irving, Long Rui prefers players like Curry, and he knows very well that in the future the NBA will develop towards the small ball era, and Curry is the most successful player in the small ball era.

This season is Curry's second season in the NBA, averaging 18.6 points per game, but compared to the current Warriors boss Monta Ellis, there is still a certain gap.

While he hasn't fully grown up, it would undoubtedly be a very wise choice if the Cavaliers' management can trade him at this time.

Anyway, Long Rui had already spoken out. As for what Griffin would do, it was beyond his control.

Griffin frowned as he looked at Long Rui's back as he left gracefully.

He looked at the contract with his name on the table again, and suddenly felt some regret in his heart.

This kid is too crazy, right?Just signed a contract and started meddling in the management's affairs?Do you really think of yourself as the boss of the team?
Regarding Long Rui's behavior just now, Scott was also a little dazed. It was the first time he had seen Long Rui's attitude.

"Fortunately, I didn't sign a long-term contract. This kid is probably a thorn..."

Griffin complained, while silently reciting a name in his heart.

Stephen Curry...

After leaving the office, Long Rui, who was a little tired, went straight to his own gymnasium.

By the time he returned to the gym, it was already completely dark.

Under the street lamp, he faintly saw a figure outside the gymnasium squatting on the ground.

Long Rui's complexion darkened. One thing that is very bad in the country of America is that at night, there are often some alcoholics. It's all scary.

"It's unlucky..."

He cursed secretly, then walked straight towards the gymnasium.

After getting closer, I realized that the person squatting at the door of the gymnasium turned out to be a woman.

It's winter, and the weather in Kecheng is very cold, but this woman's clothes are very thin, and she is already shivering from the cold.

When she saw Long Rui walking towards her, she stood up tremblingly.

"Please...Excuse me, are you Dr. Long?"

Hearing this, Long Rui's expression froze, this woman is actually from Huaxia.

"What's the matter with me?"

It is a blessing to meet a compatriot in a foreign country, even though he is just a time traveler.

"You... are you really Doctor Long?"

The woman's tone was very excited, and she continued: "My name is Ran Ruoxue, you can call me Xiaoxue, I'm here to learn medical skills from you!"

Long Rui looked at this woman suspiciously. After all, his exposure in the United States has been quite high in the past few days. Who knows if this woman has other plans.

But it was freezing cold outside, and the woman was shivering from the cold, Long Rui couldn't bear it.

"No matter what your purpose is, come in and talk first."
