From today on is the king

Chapter 1478
The Heat are toxic...

Wade was reimbursed, and got back a Stoudemire with glass attributes, and had to rent a team doctor from the Eagles to help Stoudemire make a training plan. Now he has chosen a glass man, and he will be reimbursed for the season without playing a game.

The Heat are like a clear stream, and the fans are still excited about the crazy free market, so they come up with an alternative news, adding a different kind of ... joke to this crazy summer?
Indeed, the Heat are now an object of ridicule.

Sympathy... the general team will definitely get sympathy when this kind of tragedy happens.

But Pat Riley's team is different. Since he planned to replace Jordan with the Magician in the Lakers, he has established the title of "cold-blooded devil coach".

After Van Gundy left the Heat, he also began to speak out and criticize Pat Riley for taking his head coaching position in the first place.

Liu Mang's side is about to start a trip to Europe, and San Niu's side will also go to Europe together, but San Niu is going to play. After Liu Mang's European trip is over, they will return to China together. They will not be together in the middle. Liu Mang has his own work.

Coach Kruger simply settled down in Liu Mang's villa in Los Angeles on the west coast. He has deals to negotiate with teams in the west, so it's more convenient to live there.

Sometimes, the transaction is settled in three or two days, just like the Nets are determined to rebuild, and the Blazers are determined to put the old history aside.

But if the opponent is a team that is not in a hurry to trade, or the party that wants to trade more can't reveal its true goal too much, it has to be worn down slowly.

Liu Mang's western strategy plan, two goals, just meet these two aspects.

Liu Mang is not in a hurry, O'Neal is in hand, Wade will come back in December, Gasol has been selected, guard Liu Mang himself plus Wade, Jason Terry, Rondo's structure; striker Tracy McGrady, Grant Hill, Battier's structure; inside Marion, Kwame Brown, Jermaine O'Neal Although the construction has not yet been completed, the goal is clear, and the next two goals are slow. It doesn't matter.

Good things take time.

But when Liu Mang took the three girls and was going to take the chartered flight booked by Levia to London, on July 7th, the Cavaliers started something...

The Cavaliers sent a first-round pick and Scott Pollard's 627 million to expired contract, Eric Snow, Shannon Brown, signed first and then traded for Chauncey Billups of the Pistons!

Billups' new contract is a big contract with a starting salary of 1139 million and a total of 5 million for five years.

This is the first time Billups has won a tens of millions of contracts in his career.

Such a high contract, the Pistons themselves are not willing to give, of course, Billups is not willing to stay.

Billups, who jumped out of the original 713 million contract in the last year, has been actively contacting the Cavaliers since the free market opened. The 31-year-old Billups... the Cavaliers are willing to spend money, and they can only sign this kind of star who has passed the peak period.

Such a transaction can be regarded as a contract. The Cavaliers spent 6100 million to sign a 31-year-old veteran. His strength must have improved, but the five-year contract is still a player option, and the future salary space is hard to say.

Just like the three girls who were waiting for the plane at the airport with Liu Mang, all of them were not optimistic about the signing of the Cavaliers.

From the data point of view, Billups, who averaged 17 points, 3.8 rebounds, 7.2 assists and 1.2 steals per game last season and only averaged 1100 turnovers per game, has a starting salary of more than [-] million, but considering his age and the fact that the opponent is from the Pistons, it is different.

The main thing is that San Niu uses Liu Mang to compare with Billups...

This is a bit too much.

However, Liu Mang was quite surprised by Billups' choice. He originally thought that Billups would go to the West.

"It seems that I didn't learn to be good, and I was thinking about dealing with me..."

Looking at the little loli expressing that Billups went to the Cavaliers and is not his uncle's opponent, Liu Mang felt that this little loli was right...

……

……

There is a saying that goes well, what is lost is the east corner, and what is harvested is mulberry elm.

The Lakers are invincible inside the universe, and even the Eagles were almost swept away, which brought endless pressure to other teams and gave other teams opportunities.

Some teams want to strengthen, and some teams have the opportunity to exchange for better bargaining chips.

Like Popovich now, he has a chance to bite the Eagles.

It is not an easy task to take advantage of the Eagles, and Popovich enjoys this feeling very much now.

Who told Popovich to have the right to sign the South American players the Eagles wanted.

The Spurs already had Oberto, who was also a power forward of Argentina's golden generation and could play center forward. Popovich didn't have much interest in another Argentine power forward, but he picked several Argentine players in the second round.

At this time, Coach Kruger had a big head, and Price, who came to Los Angeles to join Coach Kruger, also had a big head.

It seems that Liu Mang is determined to win these two goals. If we really want to say, if we change teams, maybe the owners of these two goals will not be so clinging to death.

But who made them the Eagles.

Grinding slowly is also a good choice. Liu Mang is not in a hurry at all, but the two managers are a little anxious.

There are only a few people in the team!There are about ten of them when they are full.

This year, Liu Mang led the team building, and Liu Mang's team building ideas, both of them admired, but they also wanted to operate, and if they won these two players, they could go to the free market to flirt.

Many veterans and capable players who want to win the championship have already contacted the Eagles, but without getting inside, they have no way to negotiate with other players first.

The inside line is very important, especially since the season that just ended, the inside line has become very important.

Originally, after the three consecutive championships, coach Kruger and Price also thought the same as Liu Mang, thinking that the changes in the rules of the league would lead to the advent of the era of the outside line. As a result, the Lakers made a big move and forcibly delayed the coming of the era of the inside line.

The Eagles did further strengthen the outside line in the middle of last year's season, but they can't relax inside, at least they won't be too disadvantaged in the face of the Lakers and the Bulls.

After discussing the countermeasures with Price, Coach Kruger got a plan.

"Boss, is this okay?" Coach Kruger felt weird.

"It doesn't matter, Sean goes to a team that is also capable of competing for the championship, and we have more playing time. We have done a good job." Price forcefully explained.

"I'm not talking about this, I'm saying that the same method can work?" Coach Kruger is not as indecisive as Liu Mang in this regard.

"That drunkard doesn't know how we talked to Big Bird before..."

……

It is still a very good red wine, the taste is still so mellow, the brand of red wine has not been changed, it is still the same brand and the same year of red wine taken from Price's wine cellar...

The light is still so bright...

The same sommelier was invited, still so handsome...

However, the location of the restaurant has changed from New York to a seaside restaurant in Los Angeles. Of course, if you want to drink red wine, you will not be able to match seafood. Although the steak in Los Angeles is high in iron, it is still very good.

The Hawks owner and the Spurs executive were having dinner together in Los Angeles, and no one expected it.

Compared with the target Larry Bird who used the same routine last time, Popovich didn't have so much dissatisfaction, but felt that... his time has come?

"With the 2002th overall pick in the second round of 27 and a first-rounder in 2009, can he be traded to Battier?" Popovich felt as if he was filling in a pie.

Popovich just wanted to catch the appetite of the Eagles. It would be nice to get back a first-round pick. Originally, Popovich wanted one or two second-round picks and it would be over. Who knew that such a good thing would happen to him.

Price offered to send Battier to Popovich for a 2002 second-round pick and a 2009 Spurs first-round pick.

The second-round pick in 2002...Popovich almost forgot. He just used the second-round pick to select some international players who performed well in the World Series.

In the original time and space, Popovich gave the rookie to the Rockets for nothing in this way.

For Popovich, this situation is equivalent to using the 2009 first-round pick to trade for Battier, which is surreal for Popovich.

Even if it was the first-round pick of the Spurs in 2009, Popovich also had the confidence that his team would not have a high pick, and the best pick in 2009 was in the twenties.

The draft picks in the twenties want to select a player with the strength of Battier... Popovich is not saying that he has never done it, but he can only be selected once in a while. If there is a guarantee that a player like Battier can be selected in the twenties, no one can guarantee.

The more this happened, the more Popovich felt that there was a conspiracy.

"Greg, would you believe me if I said I wanted to help you deal with the Lakers?" Price asked.

Popovich took a sip of the wine. Based on his many years of drinking experience, this is really good wine. After tasting it, Popovich replied: "I believe you."

When Price himself asked the phrase "Do you believe it?", he was apprehensive, but Popovich actually believed it!And it's not like being ironic!

Why not?The Eagles have just lost to the Lakers, and they will definitely find a way to trip the Lakers. Popovich feels that he is facing the same situation and will make the same or even crazier moves.

For example, if Parker applies for a trade, he will definitely pretend to trade Parker to the Lakers, catching the Lakers' attention, and then send Parker to the Lakers' hostile team.

Originally, Popovich didn't like the Eagles that much, including the management, but now it feels like they are like-minded.

As for whether the Eagles will be stronger because of this... Popovich has a headache here in the west. The Suns, Lakers, and Mavericks are sideways there. How can he give up the opportunity to reinforce the small forward.

"BEAT-LA!" Popovich showed a cunning smile.

"BEAT-LA." Price was stunned for a moment, and raised his glass. This was what he wanted to say...
