From today on is the king

Chapter 858

"Fortunately, I was not unlucky on the plane!"

Liu Mang is now cautious all over, and his energy is quite concentrated, so bad luck!

No, just arrived at the hotel, the rooms of other teammates are completely fine, only Liu Mang's room, the access control battery is dead...

Changed the room and it hasn't been cleaned yet...

Another room, circuit failure...

It took half an hour before Liu Mang got a room that was cleaned and no problem.

Anthony invited Liu Mang to go out for an appointment, and asked McGrady to take Josh Smith out to play, which made Iguodala very depressed. He moved two suitcases of luggage. Originally, when the boss came out, he would go with Liu Mang to be a bodyguard when he came out to have a meal with a star. Now he can only play video games with Kwame Brown in the hotel...

After tossing and tossing for a long time, Liu Mang could finally rest, so he didn't go out, just in case something bad happens again.

Liu Mang turned on the laptop that Dinah had given him, but luckily the computer was fine, little loli bless you!
Liu Mang opened his mailbox to see the transaction details sent by the team.

Today Tony - Allen and Trevor Ariza, Kevin - Willis did not follow the team away.

Because all three were traded.

Just in the morning, before the Eagles set off, Liu Mang knew that the deal had been confirmed when he saw Korver return to the team.

老鹰队送出了140万美刀现金，凯文-威利斯、托尼-阿伦、阿里扎，得到了来自尼克斯的2006年次轮选秀权、凯尔特人的来自马刺队的2006年首轮选秀权、来自猛龙队2006年次轮选秀权、来自凯尔特人的96黄金一代快退役的老将沃尔特-麦卡蒂、来自猛龙队的阿隆佐-莫宁。

The Knicks sent the 2006 second-round pick and the 04 undrafted Jackie Butler to the Hawks for Trevor Ariza.

The Celtics sent the 2006 first-round pick from the Spurs, the Celtics' own second-round pick in 2006, and Walter McCarty, who matched Tony Allen's million-dollar salary, and got Tony Allen from the Hawks.

The Raptors sent Alonzo Mourning, a 2006 second-round pick, and received a 2006 second-round pick from the Celtics, Jackie Butler, Kevin Willis from the Knicks, and $140 million in cash compensation.

The Eagles completed a four-team trade.

Using the space vacated by Kevin Willis, Tony Allen, and Ariza, he got Alonzo Mourning and three draft picks!
This deal... In terms of value, Liu Mang obviously felt that the team had lost money.

But from the perspective of team planning, it is correct. Sometimes too much talent is not a good thing. The 12-man roster is full of talents.

Moreover, it also exchanged two draft picks that must be in the first round and one of the Spurs' 27th and eighth picks. When the rookie bonuses of the past two years are exhausted, there will be new rookie bonuses.

Liu Mang feels that this is a healthy and virtuous circle for the team.

For the Celtics, the first round of the Spurs is completely tasteless. They don’t think they can select any good players. This year they have several draft picks, and they only selected Al Jefferson and Delonte West. They wasted 3 draft picks.

The Knicks won't feel bad about trading a second-round pick for Ariza. Even if they have an early second-round pick, they may not be able to pick someone by themselves. The second round is completely a gamble.

The Raptors, who were originally in the second round, got rid of Mourning's 490 million salary and didn't need to pay for a buyout. Jackie Butler's contract is non-guaranteed, and he just needs to be waived before January, which is equivalent to saving millions of salary.

However, for Liu Mang and the Eagles, it is necessary for the second-round pick to improve their pick as much as possible.

There is not much difference between the picks at the end of the first round and the second round picks, especially Liu Mang's upset selection method.

Generally speaking, if it is determined that there is a rookie with strength and future, the team is more willing to use the pick at the end of the first round or the top of the second round, because it can be used for four years, and in the second round, it can also be signed for four years.

But if the second-round pick is too low, people may not be happy, and they can refuse. The mandatory contract for the second-round pick is only two years, and the second-round rookie can refuse the rookie contract of more than two years. In this case, the team can either sign for two years, or give it up.

For example, the future Chandler Parsons signed a 4-year rookie contract with the Rockets. When he had the opportunity to leave, Parsons left the Rockets without looking back.

The salary of the contract at the end of the first round is basically the same as that of the contract at the top of the second round. The rookies who are in the top of the second round have no big opinion on signing players for four years, but if they are in the middle and late stages of the second round, they probably will not be happy.

Even if the team atmosphere of the Eagles is good, Liu Mang doesn't want such a situation to happen. If he is not afraid of [-] yuan, he is afraid of what happens. How can he have so much free time to argue with role players.

Liu Mang’s plan for the future of the Eagles is very clear. The rookie bonus is a must. Non-essential personnel of the team, the last year or two of the rookie’s contract will be traded away for a new draft pick. Then it is necessary to sign a four-year contract. Not only is it cheap, but it is also easy to trade.

For example, Boozer, if he didn't have two years of rookie contract, the Jazz wouldn't be so generous to help out, even though the two teams have been friendly and cooperative teams since 20 years ago.

As for why the rookie bonus is necessary, of course it is cheap!Role players are not cheap, Liu Mang has no reason to ask the team for a big contract...

And let these rookies experience the feeling of a strong team, and have a high chance of winning the championship. Liu Mang feels that he is really great...

Now many teams don't understand this problem, but the Eagles management, which has used the four-year bonus and trading bonus brought by the two late first-round picks of Prince and Boozer, began to quietly transfer the picks in the middle and late stages of the second round to try their best to get the early second-round picks.

For the team, if it is a player who really wants to stay as a rotation player, there is no difference between the mid-to-late first-round pick and the second-round pick, except for the difference in salary of millions of dollars, especially for the Eagles who are not short of money.

……

After the trade, the Raptors immediately announced the layoff of Jackie Butler, without spending a penny and without a guaranteed contract.

Then reached a $140 million buyout agreement with Kevin Willis. Kevin Willis gave up his salary of $100 million and was unwilling to go to the icy Toronto.

After the details of the transaction were announced, it was reasonable for Mourning to join the Eagles, but in order to get Mourning, the Eagles, Kevin Willis as an extra, traded two rookies to make room, which surprised many people.

According to rumors, the Raptors are giving Mourning a chance to show his strength after his comeback. Mourning will take the initiative to buy out the contract after finding a next home. The Raptors do not want to pay the rest of the salary.

But I didn't expect the Eagles to give up two rookies who seemed to have starting talents in order to get Mourning!

Although the Eagles got 3 draft picks, but the Spurs' first round and two second rounds, people feel that the Eagles have lost a lot!

With so many late first-round and second-round picks every year, how many rookies can match Tony Allen and Ariza?

The media unanimously believed that the Eagles were cheated, but the evaluation was not very low. They just felt that the Eagles were at a loss. After all, the Eagles had too many talented outside players.

Now a veteran Walter with many years of experience is coming back, mainly because Mourning has been used to reinforce the Eagles' inside bench.

In terms of the value of the players, the Eagles must have lost money. They should have been able to sign Mourning directly with a basic salary, but in terms of making the team structure better by the way, it is good for the stability of the Eagles lineup.

It's just that many media don't understand why Tony Allen and Ariza were traded?Calderon and Korver, it doesn't look like these two have a future.

Originally, the Hawks coaching staff planned to let Tony Allen and Ariza also try in the regular season. They both played well, and even both of them were more talented than Korver.

But Iguodala also has the potential to become a defensive gate, and his talent is better. Calderon's organization of offense when McGrady is resting is not comparable between the two.

The most important thing is that the relationship between Liu Mang and the two is not so close, which is the key to the coach and the boss choosing to trade the two.

In fact, Liu Mang's attitude is the most critical.

The way the coaching staff trains the rookies is correct. Let the two rookies go to the development league to have the opportunity to hone in actual combat. When they return to the home training, they will be called back to train with the main players. The method is correct, but it ignores the emotional factor in it.

As a result, Tony Allen and Trevor Ariza, two rookies who performed better than Korver's sophomore year in their rookie years, were given up.

"Not-familiar" means that we are not familiar with each other.

As soon as these two words came out of Liu Mang's mouth, the boss Price confirmed that he would trade the two for draft picks, and that the two might start their wandering careers.

For Tony Allen and Ariza, Liu Mang is still a little bit reluctant. After all, these two are still playing after more than ten years, and they are still the main force. If possible, he hopes to keep these people.

But the team has too many outside lines, even if they play small balls, there are too many. These two are only talented, and they have to be cultivated slowly, and they are also players with obvious advantages and disadvantages. They are not as adaptable to any system as Korver.

Another point is that if Korver goes to the Development League to level up, his three-point ability can be improved better, but Tony Allen and Ariza, the two strongest defensive talents, the Development League has no defense at all, and the two are still disgusted by the teammates of the Development League.

The most important reason is that sentence, Liu Mang is not familiar with them.

But now, Liu Mang is even more excited about Mourning's joining!
After reading the details of the transaction, Liu Mang immediately went to Kwame Brown, who was playing a game, and asked Kwame Brown to call Mourning.

Liu Mang feels that McGrady takes care of the "children" like a "mother" on the court, and he has to take care of the team in terms of off-court transactions and signings.

Sometimes a stupid boss, the disadvantage is that there are no decent trading methods, but the advantage is that if the core of the team shows this talent, they will be more obedient.

Steven Price is a standard boss of this type. If Liu Mang hadn't been around, he would have been abandoned by his family in a short time. The Eagles are part of a business owned by multiple families.

Liu Mang looked at Kwame-Brown for a long time before realizing that he wanted to say hello to his senior first, he was so tired!He regards this high school student as a teammate, but he has to plan their careers like "Dad"...
