Coach, I don't want to retire yet
Chapter 234 An Earthquake-like Deal and a Crazy Draft!
Chapter 234 An Earthquake-like Deal and a Crazy Draft!
The Cavaliers and the Lakers reached a deal to welcome Oden, who was once the great of Ohio State University, back to Cleveland and wear the No. 23 jersey.
It's not just James' mentality that has collapsed.
The other person's mentality also collapsed.
Embiid saw the news from his hospital bed.
Meanwhile, in his hospital room was his college teammate Wiggins.
After seeing the news on his mobile phone, Embiid's mentality collapsed, and his teammate Wiggins jumped up excitedly!
The No. [-] pick is signed to the Lakers!
What does this mean?
This means that he will become the No. [-] pick in this year's draft! ! !
That's Los Angeles, that's the Lakers!
Soaking goji berries in the same thermos, isn't Los Angeles the most fragrant place? !
Seeing Wiggins can't help dancing in front of his grave, Embiid was dumbfounded at first, and then couldn't help crying.
In order to become the No. [-] pick in this year's draft, he worked very hard in the Cavaliers' trial training and was also very strong. In the end, he injured himself.
Well, I don't know whether it was the injury first or after the Cavaliers' trial, but he will definitely think it was after the trial. If he was injured before the trial, how could he perform so well.
Therefore, he gave everything for this No. [-] lottery.
The Cavaliers are also loyal. Although he has a stress fracture now, Yao Ming's performance in the playoffs is terrible!
So the Cavaliers still gave him a promise that the No. [-] pick is either someone else's or his.
He, Yao Ming II, is well recuperating in the hospital. In Cleveland, nothing is good, except the hospital. His injury will not have such a big impact on his future career.
Embiid is very moved.
Really here to recuperate and wait.
Then came such a bad news.
First, James took the initiative to contact the Cavaliers to return to Cleveland. His No. [-] pick became a bargaining chip. He heard that he was going to trade Timberwolves Love, and the deal was almost done.
He is very resentful, James is a dogfighter!
Soon, James put the Cavaliers up and down. Amid the crazy scolding of the Cavaliers fans, he chose to join the Celtics and played the Cavaliers up and down.
Cavaliers are not happy up and down.
But he is happy!
This No. [-] lottery is his own again!
And then, this hasn't been fun for 15 minutes yet.
The Cavaliers officially announced that they have exchanged the Lakers' Oden with the No. [-] pick!
Fake!
This ups and downs, no one can bear it?
In the end, the No. [-] lottery that he bought with his body still left him!
Pain, grievance, discomfort, the mentality is really broken.
The Lakers have Yao, and even Oden is afraid to stay. He is definitely not willing to go to the Lakers to serve as a substitute for Yao. He can choose the Cavaliers for the No. [-] pick in trial training, which shows that he is willing to give up for his career prospects. Big city players.
So, not to mention that it is impossible for the Lakers to choose him, even if the Lakers choose him, he is not very willing to go.
And because Kobe and McGrady are suspected of being reimbursed next season, and the Lakers lack a forward line, there is nothing wrong with Wiggins being the No. [-] pick.
Ugh……
What a heavy, sad sigh it was.
Wiggins, who was happy and excited next to him, felt heartbroken.
The deal between the Cavaliers and the Lakers also aroused dissatisfaction and anger from a group of people.
That is the weird management team of the Timberwolves.
My fucking pants are off, I've already packed Love and I'm about to send it to Cleveland, you fucking said your No. [-] lottery has already been sent?
Indeed, if this person is Auden, there is really no way, Love's value is indeed not as good as Auden.
So they didn't blame the Cavaliers too much, and it was still James who was angry in the end.
Isn't James playing with them?
What should we do now?
This season they sold Love for a season.
Most of the time it is done in secret.
And this time, it was absolutely public.
Love has a very good personality. At first they suspected that Love was injured, and Love was even willing to be reimbursed for the season to prove himself.
Although there was a rift with Le Fu, they still respect Le Fu's dedication.
Therefore, it is also secretly carried out when selling Love.
This time, because the temptation of the No. [-] pick is too great, and it involves James, one of the biggest traffic in the NBA, it is impossible to hide it.
Now that Le Fu can't send it out, what should I do?
No matter how good Le Fu's personality is, he can't stand this insult.
Oh, you send each other away, and stay if you want. Who do you think I am?
What's more, the Timberwolves actually didn't want to keep Love.
Of course, Love actually has no intention of staying in the Timberwolves.
Love made it clear last month: If the team does not trade me away as soon as possible, I will choose to enter the free agent market in 2015 and become a completely free agent.
Love can jump out of the contract next year.
After encountering the bombing incident that made the Timberwolves fans not know how to complain, Love and the Timberwolves have completely lost their trust. The Timberwolves themselves were shocked and grateful.
Averaged 26.1 points, 12.5 rebounds and 4.4 assists per game.
Love was once an MVP candidate.
Love wants to leave, but he also wants to play his best performance and leave more chips for the Timberwolves.
Love wanted to leave, and he also applied after the season ended.
The application was submitted in May, and on the last Friday night in May, Love and his friends showed up at a bar near the TD Garden, home of the Celtics.
This of course aroused the infinite reverie of Celtics fans.
A white man with such outstanding strength as Love directly pokes the G-spot of Kaizi fans.
They love Lefu to death.
So after Love appeared in Boston, Celtics fans went crazy, and in the next few days, social media was flooded with pictures of Love walking the streets of Boston.
These are all sneak shots of the Celtics fans, which are much more enthusiastic than the sneak shots of James.
The whole Lefu himself was deceived.
In the end, Le Fu himself stood up and responded to this incident: "I don't know what's going on. Someone leaked most of my schedule. They know exactly what I do and when, and they make my life a little bit different. It’s a mess, I understand their feelings, but please also understand my feelings, respect me, respect my team, my appearance in Boston has nothing to do with the trade.”
You really can't fault Le Fu's emotional intelligence.
On the contrary, some players on the Celtics side are very upset.
The Celtics star Sullinger said directly: "Hey, man, do you think I am mentally retarded? I am not mentally retarded. If you tell me that Sullinger can be exchanged for Love, I will agree without hesitation. deal, yes, I'm ready to leave, but some people can be tougher and more aboveboard."
Who wants to leave Boston for a place like Minnesota?
At that time, news that the Timberwolves and the Celtics were about to reach a deal was flying all over the sky, and the news was not suppressed until the finals started.
According to the news at the time, the Timberwolves wanted Jeff Green, Sullinger, Brand Bass and the Celtics' sixth pick this year.
The bargaining chips in this deal were actually not high, but the reason why they didn't make the trip was because they were stuck on the sixth lottery.
Danny Ainge is desperately unwilling to send the No. [-] pick out.
Danny Ainge even expressed his willingness to use Rondo in exchange for more bargaining chips for Love, without sending the sixth pick.
Angie was so determined that the Timberwolves had no choice but to wait.
Who would have thought that the finals would be over, and everything would have changed.
James wants to return to the Cavaliers, and the Cavaliers are willing to send the No. [-] pick in exchange for Love.
The Timberwolves naturally rejected the deal with the Ainge Celtics.
Now, being put out like this by James, isn't it messing with me? !
James' choice to go to the Celtics really offended a bunch of people and changed the operation of a bunch of NBA teams.
Now the Timberwolves management and Love are directly embarrassed.
What makes the Timberwolves management even more uncomfortable and embarrassing is that Danny Ainge, the general manager of the Boston Celtics, TM actually sent that trading chip to himself again!
Jeff Green, Sullinger, Brandon Bass.
Isn't this fucking disgusting?
It's not that this chip is bad.
Sullinger is a second-year insider who averaged 14+9 per game last season. He has great potential and is also the most valuable player in this offer.
Both Jeff Green and Brandon Bass were powerful players who averaged more than 10 points per game last season. Jeff Green averaged 17 points per game and Brandon Bass averaged 11 points per game.
The Timberwolves are not dissatisfied with these three people, but the Timberwolves definitely want more.
It’s best to have a high-ranking draft pick. What about Rondo’s bargaining chip? Has your Rondo been traded?
No deal, no bargaining chip, you guys make a crazy offer!
You don't really think that we are stupid. We rejected you before, but now we will agree?
Do you really think that no one wants Le Fu or what?
In the past few seasons, Love has been really embarrassing in the NBA.
The data is excellent, super giant data, but the status is not even a superstar. Many fans say that he is a data brush. Fans and experts all think that he is an All-Star player, an oversized David Lee.
It's a pity that it's a pity that it's tasteless to eat.
Love's stats last season and peak Garnett's are exactly the same except that his shooting percentage is 10 percentage points lower. If it's 26-year-old Garnett, if the Timberwolves want to trade, the entire league will go crazy.
But love...
As an insider, the shooting rate is 45%, which is very terrible.
Although Love is not so easy to get rid of, the Timberwolves will not really let Angie and the Celtics take advantage of it.
Naturally, the offer was rejected.
Angie was not surprised by this.
"Danny, why are you still doing this?"
"Try it a few times, and there will always be surprises. When their emotions become more and more impatient, they will make some dizzy decisions."
This is the essence of stalking.
"How about Chris Paul?"
If the rumors of Kevin Love and the Celtics are the biggest player trade rumors during the playoffs, then the Los Angeles Clippers are the biggest fun during the NBA playoffs.
During the playoffs between the Clippers and the Warriors, the American online media "TMZ" exposed a recording of a conversation between Sterling and his girlfriend. The Clippers owner accused his girlfriend of putting a photo of him with a black friend in the recording. Personal webpage, and named names "especially don't bring 'Magic' Johnson".
Once this racially discriminatory speech was exposed, it caused an uproar and drew unanimous condemnation from all sides.
In the United States, discrimination against black people is a serious crime, and he is also a magician with extremely high status in the NBA.
One stone caused a thousand waves, and a large number of black players were furious. Mason, the vice chairman of the NBA Players Union, said that the players were ready to strike.
Faced with such aggressive public opinion, David Stern dealt with it decisively. Sterling was suspended for life and fined 250 million US dollars. Get out of the NBA.
David Stern's decisive disposition has won the respect of the entire league.
The decision of David Stern and the league naturally won the respect and satisfaction of the players in the entire league.
But how could Sterling be satisfied?
I just say hello, you want me to die?
Who can bear this?
Just a week ago, Sterling turned down a $20 billion offer from Ballmer.
At the same time, Sterling also issued a statement that "the team is not for sale", solemnly announcing that he will not sell the team. At the same time, he also asked his lawyer to sue the NBA, demanding that the league compensate him 10 billion US dollars.
In fact, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Sterling, a stalker, is dissatisfied with the $20 billion acquisition.
Sterling spent 34 million US dollars to buy the Clippers 1300 years ago, and now it has become 20 billion, which is already very good.
However, any fool can see that the popularity and ratings of the NBA have exploded now.
The ratings of the Lakers and Knicks finals this year, the ratings of G6 and G7 even exceeded 25%. What does this mean?
It means that the value of the NBA has caught up to one-half of the NFL.
20 billion dollars?
$20 billion would buy a team like the Bobcats.
Jordan is now selling the Bobcats, and the offer is also 20 billion US dollars.
Ballmer bid 20 billion to buy the Clippers, isn't this taking advantage of the fire?
No matter how demented Sterling is, it is impossible to agree.
Sterling's price for the Clippers must be at least $30 billion.
This is the deadlock here.
Ballmer is rich, but the $30 billion in cash is not so easy to get out.
More importantly, if you take out 30 billion, will he ask for 40 billion?
Also, Sterling is indeed racially discriminatory, but private property cannot be violated, at least on the surface.
The Clippers are in California. If they were in Texas, guess if Sterling sued the NBA in the end, would the NBA win or Sterling win?
Sterling's racial discrimination is wrong. There is no problem with David Stern's decision to ban Sterling for life, but forcing Sterling to sell the team is a muddled account.
In the end, it went to the Supreme Court, and it was really not sure who would win.
David Stern's punishment is an expulsion order, but it is not mandatory. It means that we don't want to play with you anymore, so get out.
Sterling will go, but the money needs to be in place.
The money is not in place, he has a lot of ways to disgust the alliance.
So some are noisy.
Because the popularity of the NBA has soared in the past two seasons, even the best actuary will take time to calculate the valuation of NBA teams.
Sterling is now patiently refusing to leave and wants to go to court with the NBA, but the Clippers players and head coach have already broken up with the team at this time.
After Sterling's racial discrimination recording came out, Paul was Sterling who took the lead.
Since Sterling didn't want to leave, Paul naturally made a trade application.
"Danny, Chris Paul has already shown off to Doug. He will definitely not stay in the Clippers. He just wants to come to the Celtics."
Danny Ainge had a smile on his face.
The only obstacle for Paul to come to the Celtics is whether Paul is willing or not.
Sterling has been suspended by the league, and the Clippers still belong to Sterling, but Sterling is no longer talking about the Clippers.
Sterling can no longer take charge of the Clippers, but appointed Doug Rivers as the head coach and chairman of basketball operations. He can now make any changes to the Clippers' personnel according to his needs.
He is now effectively the godfather of the Clippers.
There is no boss on it.
"Before Ballmer buys the team, we must trade Chris Paul!"
"Danny, we need to convince Doug."
Danny Ainge was silent for a while.
"I'm calling Doug myself!"
Los Angeles.
The office of Clippers head coach and chairman of basketball operations Doc Rivers.
Rivers really feels like his head is getting bigger now.
"Oh, it would be great if there was Lu at this time."
Tyronn Lue went to the Cavaliers as the chief assistant coach.
Now he is really difficult in the Clippers.
He is a head coach. Now let him be the boss of the team, the acting godfather. Although he is very excited and excited, it is really difficult to deal with.
The Sterling incident made the Clippers now his team in name only.
Now he needs to deal with the mess.
Paul, Griffin, Jordan, all the players on the team have submitted trade applications at this time.
According to the current situation and public opinion, this is to put pressure on Sterling.
As long as Sterling doesn't leave, black players will definitely not stay in the Clippers.
If he hadn't been appointed as the chairman of basketball operations of the team and became the godfather of the team, he would actually not want to stay in the Clippers anymore.
Griffin and Jordan, he was appeased.
Tell them, take it easy, the team is sure to sell before next season starts.
The key question now is Chris Paul.
Looking at the newspaper in his hand, Doug Reeves had a headache.
"I have already applied for a deal. I will not play for a racially discriminatory person. If I refuse to leave, I will submit to the league for termination of arbitration. I request the termination of the contract with the Clippers and require the Clippers to compensate me for my 4-year contract. termination fee."
very intense.
Paul had obviously been appeased by him, but suddenly jumped up again, and this time the reaction was extremely violent.
No matter how stupid he is, he still knows that some team must have contacted Paul privately.
As for who this team is, it's pretty obvious.
In normal times, Paul's behavior will definitely encounter a double blow from fans and the league.
You still have such a long contract with the team. If you fail to apply for a deal, you will threaten the team to terminate the contract and ask the team to pay you a termination fee. Why don't you go to heaven?
However, now is a special time.
Now all the public opinion is supporting Paul, even NBA officials are supporting Paul. Just now Adam Silver called him and he was not allowed to stop Paul from leaving.
This is putting pressure on, and the whole world is putting pressure on it.
If the Clippers don't change owners immediately, the Clippers will definitely lose Paul.
However, there is no way for the Clippers to change the boss immediately.
This is a big deal of at least 30 billion US dollars, so it's strange that it gets up so fast.
So, what to do now?
This is an unsolvable game. Chris Paul has been attracted and must leave.
And the team to go is likely to be the Boston Celtics.
This is the most annoying.
Paul is going to other teams and he can still do work. Apart from the Knicks, Lakers and Celtics in the league, there is no better place than the Clippers.
However, it is precisely the Celtics.
He really couldn't stop it.
And just when Doug Rivers was bored, the mobile phone beside him rang, looking at the person displayed on the mobile phone, Rivers had some surprises on his face, but not so surprised.
He doesn't like Angie.
But ... this is the general manager of the Celtics.
He loves the Celtics.
Therefore, it is impossible for him not to answer.
"Doug, I know you won't listen to what I have to say, and I don't want to say more, I just want to ask you now, remember the robbery deal that Jerry West sent Gasol to the Lakers That trade ruined our dynasty, the Lakers, ruined our dynasty!"
Doug Reeves, who wanted to hear Danny Ainge's sophistry, was stunned.
He originally thought that Angie would explain why he wanted to seduce Paul, and then apologize to him, asking him to give Paul a break and support the Celtics.
I didn't expect Danny Angie to say such a thing to him.
Of course he remembers the robbery deal that Jerry West and the Lakers completed in 2008.
Angie said that without that deal, the Celtics might become a dynasty, which is possible.
At the very least, there will be at least one more championship.
It's Danny Ainge's pain, and it's his pain.
"Doug, it is impossible for Paul to stay in the Clippers. Even if you force Paul to stay, he will be bad. The Clippers' record next season will be very bad, and the Clippers' first-round pick in 2015 is in our Now the Clippers have a chance to get back their 2015 first-round pick."
"Doug, what I want to say has been made very clear, and now I know you need to think about time."
"And, Doug, Rajon said he missed you."
After speaking, Danny Angie hung up the phone.
Doug Reeves was left in a daze.
I have never seen such a soft food and hard food!
When he was in the Boston Celtics, Danny Angie has been cpu him, and now he is already the godfather of the Clippers, this guy still cups him like this!
Of course, he knew that Danny Ainge didn't want to be soft on him, just like he didn't want to be soft on Danny Ainge.
Danny Angie’s words actually mean only one thing. If you still call yourself a Boston Celtic, just think about Jerry West back then. I’m not asking you to send Paul for nothing. I will send it back to you. As far as the current situation of the Clippers is concerned, there is a high probability that the Clippers’ record will collapse next season. As long as the owner cannot be quickly changed, the Clippers will be in a mess next season, let alone the strength of the Clippers in the West. It's not that top-notch, even if it's top-notch, the Clippers' record will collapse even if their morale has collapsed.
At that time, the Clippers' first-round pick in 2015 will be worth a lot.
Especially Danny Angie's last sentence is simply a king bomb to Rivers.
Rondo said he missed him...
Before Danny Ainge sent Pierce and Garnett away, he and Rondo were very dissatisfied.
In the end, he was sent to the Clippers, in exchange for the Clippers' first-round pick in 2015. Danny Ainge's operation was like breaking other people's waists. Sending the head coach away can also be exchanged for the first-round pick. .
Now this first-round pick has become a bargaining chip for the Clippers.
After they were sent away, Rondo also wanted to leave. He applied to Danny Ainge for a deal last season, but Ainge never sent it.
Last season, Danny Ainge directly froze Rondo and let the team suck.
Rondo's life with the Celtics was very unsatisfactory.
Now how to do?
Danny Angie is willing to trade Rondo + the Clippers' first-round pick in 2015 and the Celtics' first-round pick in the future for Paul.
Doug Reeves doesn't know what to do now.
This bargaining chip is much richer than when the Lakers traded for Gasol.
But Gasol's player level can't be compared with Paul's.
The key is that his level cannot be compared with Jerry West!
Even if Jerry West gave the entire Grizzlies team to the Lakers for free, others would complain at most and dare not do anything to Jerry West.
But he can't!
If he wants to do this, he will definitely not be able to do it in the Clippers in the future, not even in the NBA!
Now how to do?
This has surpassed the upper limit of Rivers' IQ.
In the end, Rivers called his Tylen Lue.
cleveland.
After listening to Rivers' words, Tyronn Lue was also silent.
As the assistant coach of the Cavaliers, in terms of professional ethics, he should prevent the Celtics from strengthening.
But now Doug is in such pain...
In the end, Tylen Lu still sighed.
"Doug, you call Ballmer and explain the situation of the Clippers to Ballmer. Do whatever Ballmer asks you to do."
After listening to Tylen Lue's suggestion, Rivers was stunned.
Fake!
Lu, you can!
Why didn't I think of it?
Let Ballmer make this decision!
Ballmer is not the owner of the Clippers yet, but there are only a few in the world who have the financial resources to buy the Clippers, and Ballmer is the most likely.
Regardless of whether it is half a year or a year, Ballmer has a high probability of being the new owner of the Clippers.
He makes the decision, I listen to him, don't I have to take the blame?
Ballmer is not the boss now, so I just listen to him. When Ballmer takes office, he will definitely not fire me.
This is perfect!
After hanging up the phone with Tyronn Lue, Rivers felt that he had been missing Tyronn Lue for so long.
In fact, there is one thing Rivers didn't think of.
That is, Paul wants to leave wholeheartedly, and the Clippers are now in a mess, and Ballmer can't solve it.
In the end, Rivers will definitely reciprocate and let Rivers decide, and the pressure on Rivers will disappear in an instant.
"Doug, you can call me and explain the situation. I am very happy, but I am not the owner of the Clippers. I am also very clear about the current situation of the Clippers. Now I will definitely not be able to stay in the team for a short time. If If you think it is more important to recover the team's high-quality assets, I will fully support your decision, and if you think it is more important to keep Paul, I will also fully support you."
Ballmer's words and trust let Rivers unload all the burden.
Rivers, without any pressure, finally called Danny Ainge.
"Danny, I not only want Rajon and the Clippers' first-round pick in 2015, but I also want at least two first-round picks from Boston."
"no problem."
Danny Ainge's straightforwardness even stunned Rivers.
Is this still that iron cock?
"Danny, don't we have to bargain?"
"This time, the sooner the better, the later will change."
The current situation of the Clippers is very complicated, and it is likely to be a situation every day.
"As long as we hold on to the Nets' first-round pick, the Celtics' first-round pick will not be worth much from this year."
The draft is about to begin.
But the transactions before the draft are dazzling.
First, James announced that he would join the Celtics.
Then the Cavaliers and Lakers announced the No. [-] pick for Oden.
Then, on June 6, the day before the draft.
The Boston Celtics and Clippers reached a deal that once again rocked the league.
The Boston Celtics announced the use of Rajon Rondo as the main body plus Gerald Wallace and the Clippers' first-round pick in 2015, 2015, 2018, and the 2020 Celtics' first-round pick from the Clippers The fleet traded for Chris Paul.
Danny Ainge even sent an extra first-round pick to let the Clippers help eat Gerald Wallace's contract.
Gerald Wallace is 32 years old now. He has been affected by injuries in the past two seasons, but his age is not too old. In addition, the contract is 2 million for 2000 years, which is not too big, so it is not a rubbish contract. At least not now, you can take a gamble.
The Celtics are clearing space for a naked James.
The Celtics traded Rondo and Gerald Wallace plus four first-round picks for Chris Paul.
The popularity of this transaction is absolutely no worse than the previous transaction between the Cavaliers and the Lakers.
Although the rise of Westbrook and Curry in the last two seasons has made Paul's number one point guard less taken for granted.
But Paul is definitely still a superstar recognized by the league, a giant-level player.
And it's a proper top ten player in the league.
The point is, Paul and James seem to fit so well!
James has just joined the Celtics, and Paul will come soon.
This made Celtic fans happy.
"Next season, the Boston Celtics will once again become the No. [-] team in the NBA!"
"Los Angeles Lakers, enjoy the time of the No. [-] giant this year. From next year, it will be the era of the Boston Celtics!"
On the Internet, after the Celtics got Paul, the fans really described it as crazy.
Even James was very excited.
After the deal between the Celtics and the Clippers was completed, James immediately began to welcome him affectionately on Twitter.
"Welcome to Boston, my brother, starting today, Boston belongs to King&CP3!"
Behind the Twitter is a string of crowns, which shows how excited James is.
James is excited, the Celtics are excited, James' fans are excited.
Leave a message below.
"King, don't forget about Dwyane Wade!!!"
Yes, James fans are now speaking out for Wade.
This is very interesting.
Wade's fans don't even want Wade to continue to be teammates with James. My family, Sao Dezi, has been sucked blood and numb by James all these years!
Wade can't play James at all.
But James fans are looking forward to seeing Wade go to James.
Wade has been James' most reliable teammate in recent years, and Wade has really struggled for James in the past two years. I feel very guilty.
And in the face of such voices, Wade also moved very quickly. On the day Paul came to the Boston Celtics, Wade announced that he would jump out of the contract.
Wade's statement has been very clear.
It is to advance and retreat with James.
Just wait for the Celtics and James to come to him.
In fact, Wade is really very excited now.
Here comes Chris!
Chris went to assist LeBron!
Not disrespectful to Anthony, in terms of fit, Chris is indeed more suitable for LeBron.
Now that LeBron has gone to the Celtics and has reserved assistance, Wade is completely relieved.
The Celtics are stable next season!
And I heard that the Celtics are still looking for a third giant!
This is very cool!
Now that I'm in position, I can compete with LeBron for the championship again.
Although the Celtics didn't stand up on the spot, but it doesn't matter so much, let's talk about winning the championship first, now LeBron is still young, and it is a team like the Celtics, the future is not without a dynasty Opportunity!
"TMC, I'm sure I'll win this bet, you just wait to jump out of the minimum contract salary and come to the Boston Celtics, hahahaha!"
Wade, who has been molested by Maizi these days, really can't stand Maizi anymore.
So now seeing LeBron stand up again, Wade is really happy and excited.
"Dwyane, you don't have to be so happy, do you? Did James and the Celtics come to you?"
Before Maizi could speak, Dayao pushed Kezi in the wheelchair, and Kezi laughed and joked, which made Wade very upset.
"Now LeBron and the Celtics have a lot of things to do. LeBron himself hasn't signed with the Celtics yet. Why are you so anxious!"
After Wade finished speaking confidently, Bosh next to him fell silent.
Bosh has been in New York recently, so he will come here to see Wade from time to time.
"Where's Dwight?"
"Still curled up there like a dead dog."
Kobe sighed.
This guy is really useless now.
This has not yet been operated on, so he just frightened himself like this.
Isn't it 90% likely to be paralyzed?
Isn't there still a 10% possibility?
Kobe felt that on the court, even if there was a 1% possibility, he would make a shot. This is a 10% possibility!
As long as you are strong, even if you are paralyzed, you will die on the court, and it is worth it to die on the battlefield like a warrior.
Now treat yourself like a piece of trash.
"Don't worry about that guy, let's see how my revised script is going? Yes, I'll come over tomorrow, and the movie will be ready to shoot by then."
Outside, the NBA was surging, but in the hospital, Kezi and the others didn't seem to pay any attention to what was going on outside. Watching Maizi, Kezi and Dayao discussing the script there, Wade couldn't stand it.
"You really don't pay attention to the outside world at all, don't you worry that Coach D and the Lakers will be beaten up by the Celtics next season?"
After Wade finished speaking, he found that Kobe, McGrady and Yao Ming looked at him with very strange eyes.
"When did you see Coach D get beaten up?"
"..."
For a moment Wade had nothing to say.
It seems, it seems, it really is.
"The Celtics are under a lot of pressure, but the coach must have his own calculations. We are players, so we just need to trust the coach."
"..."
Wade was dumbfounded.
When did the super giants of the NBA stop giving pointers to the team?
Aren't the NBA teams all super giants with the biggest voice?
Even though the Lakers are very special, coach D has the right to speak first, but does the Super Giant really not interfere with the team's affairs at all?
Mixing with Kezi and Maizi here these days, Wade always feels that his three views are constantly being refreshed.
"Coach D, he must be scared out of his wits now!"
Finally, Wade gritted his teeth stubbornly and said viciously!
Los Angeles.
Of course Du Kang was not frightened.
"Du, tomorrow is the draft. Are you really not going to invite players for trial training?"
"Even if you want to invite a trial training, it's too late now, isn't it?"
After Hamm finished speaking, Nash pushed back what Hamm had said.
For this matter, Hamm was really speechless.
It has been a while since the Lakers got the No. [-] pick.
But Coach D just doesn't organize tryouts, and doesn't invite those hot rookies to tryouts.
Although the Lakers will definitely choose Wiggins for the No. [-] pick this time.
However, should Wiggins also be allowed to come and practice?
Many people are saying that Wiggins' agent and himself are waiting for the invitation of Coach D and the Lakers.
"Since you won't choose them, why bother to affect their trial training schedule?"
These players are also busy now.
Moreover, Du Kang has long been attached to his heart.
The system's draft predictions have a very interesting player.
He was obviously the No. [-] pick in the system evaluation, but before the start of the draft, there was a lot of ridicule and scolding.
After this person participated in the Celtics' trial training, he fell from the No. [-] pick all the way to the end of the current first round.
Then he was scolded by Danny Angie and returned to Europe with a broken mentality.
Isn't this weird?
If he didn't have a system, he would have been shaken by Danny Ainge.
Obviously, the effect of Jokic's trial training with the Celtics is not too bad, but too good.
So good that Danny Ainge thinks his No. [-] pick probably won't sign him.
Now that Danny Ainge has already tried out for him, what else is there for him to try out?
It's a blind pick.
Boston.
"LeBron, Chris, let's go to New York to meet your new teammates"
Not Gordon, whom the Celtics have been talking about lately, but the European.
And in New York.
At this point Jokic has returned from Europe.
Well, he received an invite to the NBA's Green Room.
As the top pick this year, he is still a European player, so it is normal to be invited by the small green house.
June 2014, 6, at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.
Jokic came to sit down at the round table in the small green room, and soon there were a lot of pointing eyes around him.
"This is the European pork belly, right? Hahahaha what Danny Angie said is really good. At first glance, his face is full of unhealthy. Such a player was once the top pick in the draft. Yao really took a group of cats and dogs away. .”
"This guy can sit on the round table in the small green room in the draft. Will it be the greatest achievement of his basketball career?"
"I can't wait for him to fail in the Little Green House, hahahaha..."
A bunch of ridicules, whether it is the players or the media, are laughing at Jokic.
The mentality of ordinary young players has collapsed at this time.
In fact, the mentality of the family next to Jokic has collapsed.
"Nicolas, are you sure you can be selected high?"
"determine."
Jokic simply pretended that the eyes and sarcasm from the side didn't exist, and was drinking Coke leisurely alone.
I don't worry about what the Celtics will do if they don't choose themselves.
Compared with Jokic, Wiggins, who is destined to be the No. [-] pick, is now very nervous and uneasy.
"Danny Ainge, LeBron James, Chris Paul is here!!!"
At this moment, the entire Barclays Center caused a commotion.
Gordon, who has been rumored a lot with the Celtics recently, is excited.
Is this to greet him?
He was really flattered to make such a big commotion in order to welcome him!
And almost at the same time, the entire arena caused a bigger sensation.
"Fake!! Coach D!!! Coach D is here!!!"
The uneasy Wiggins trembled with excitement for an instant, and even stood up directly.
Seeing Wiggins so excited, Du Kang froze for a moment, and then gave him a cheering look.
Then, Du Kang's eyes excited Wiggins, not only Wiggins, but the whole arena!
"Coach D is definitely going to choose Wiggins! Coach D's vision of seeing people and cultivating people, if he doesn't choose Wiggins, then Wiggins must be trash!!!"
Seeing the interaction between Du Kang and Wiggins, the management of many teams around and in front of the TV sighed.
Coach D's draft talent and ability to see and train people are top in the NBA.
Wiggins is a young genius and the front line the Lakers desperately need.
Coach D has the No. [-] pick again, and of course Wiggins must be chosen.
If Wiggins is not selected, then it can only be that Wiggins may not be so good.
And this is why Wiggins is so excited and trembling.
Selected by Coach D, he will go to heaven.
And if Coach D doesn't choose him, he doesn't say he's going to hell, at least, he's very likely to collapse!
Du Kang was actually just encouraging, he had no other thoughts, and he didn't know that the surroundings were suddenly like this.
"Coach D, Wiggins is a good player."
Danny Angie narrowed his eyes and said with a smile.
"Yeah, Jokic is also a very good player."
"..."
Danny Angie was dumbfounded.
James and Paul next to him were also dumbfounded.
And right now.
The talent show has begun!
"In the 2014 NBA draft, the first pick in the first round of the Los Angeles Lakers is the center from Serbia, Nikola Jokic!"
After David Stern finished reading, the whole world fell silent.
Even David Stern himself was actually fooled.
Jokic, the No. [-] pick? ! ! ! !
Puff!
Jokic couldn't bear it anymore, he didn't want to spray forward, turned his head, and sprayed directly on the face of James who was holding the hat in his hand.
After a moment.
The whole world is crazy!
"Is Coach D crazy? The No. [-] pick Jokic?!"
"The Lakers have Yao Ming, what do they want Jokic?"
"Could it be that Coach D is not optimistic about Wiggins, so he chose one at random?"
"How bad is Wiggins that Coach D despises him so much!"
Wiggins was dumbfounded.
Wiggins was blinded.
Wiggins feels like he's gone crazy!
With the second pick, Milwaukee selected Parker.
With the third pick, the 76ers selected Embiid.
With the fourth pick, the Magic selected Aaron Gordon.
These teams have their own first choice. The Magic thought about it for a while, and finally chose the more familiar Gordon. They haven't seriously investigated Wiggins recently, and Wiggins has been waiting for the Lakers.
As for the Jazz with the fifth pick, they already had Gordon Hayward, and finally chose guard Dante Exum.
Wiggins, fell to the sixth pick!
It's not that Jokic is no one cares about, it's that Wiggins has become no one cares about!
"My goodness!!!"
"Crazy talent show!!!"
Even crazier!
Danny Angie, who was already stupid, jumped up excitedly at this time!
He lost Jokic!
But his sixth pick could get Wiggins! ! !
What a roller coaster it is!
And at this moment, Danny Ainge's cell phone rang.
It's Timberwolves' call.
Danny Ainge's eyes narrowed.
The Timberwolves want to rebuild, and the Timberwolves need the core of rebuilding.
As for Wiggins, although he doesn't know why Coach D didn't choose him, his talent has potential.
At the very least, apart from the first five, none of the players in the back are at the level of Wiggins.
in that moment.
The sixth pick in his hand suddenly became valuable!
This is really a surprise!
Now he needs to make a decision!
Do you want Wiggins or Love!
James can't control the Coke sprayed by Jokic on his head at this time.
very excited.
James is really excited.
Glancing at Coach D who was talking to Jokic not far away, James really felt crazy.
Coach D never dreamed that he would help us so much!
"Danny, we're going to win a championship next season!!!"
The Big Three of the Celtics group and the draft are not divided into chapters, they are two in one.
(End of this chapter)
The Cavaliers and the Lakers reached a deal to welcome Oden, who was once the great of Ohio State University, back to Cleveland and wear the No. 23 jersey.
It's not just James' mentality that has collapsed.
The other person's mentality also collapsed.
Embiid saw the news from his hospital bed.
Meanwhile, in his hospital room was his college teammate Wiggins.
After seeing the news on his mobile phone, Embiid's mentality collapsed, and his teammate Wiggins jumped up excitedly!
The No. [-] pick is signed to the Lakers!
What does this mean?
This means that he will become the No. [-] pick in this year's draft! ! !
That's Los Angeles, that's the Lakers!
Soaking goji berries in the same thermos, isn't Los Angeles the most fragrant place? !
Seeing Wiggins can't help dancing in front of his grave, Embiid was dumbfounded at first, and then couldn't help crying.
In order to become the No. [-] pick in this year's draft, he worked very hard in the Cavaliers' trial training and was also very strong. In the end, he injured himself.
Well, I don't know whether it was the injury first or after the Cavaliers' trial, but he will definitely think it was after the trial. If he was injured before the trial, how could he perform so well.
Therefore, he gave everything for this No. [-] lottery.
The Cavaliers are also loyal. Although he has a stress fracture now, Yao Ming's performance in the playoffs is terrible!
So the Cavaliers still gave him a promise that the No. [-] pick is either someone else's or his.
He, Yao Ming II, is well recuperating in the hospital. In Cleveland, nothing is good, except the hospital. His injury will not have such a big impact on his future career.
Embiid is very moved.
Really here to recuperate and wait.
Then came such a bad news.
First, James took the initiative to contact the Cavaliers to return to Cleveland. His No. [-] pick became a bargaining chip. He heard that he was going to trade Timberwolves Love, and the deal was almost done.
He is very resentful, James is a dogfighter!
Soon, James put the Cavaliers up and down. Amid the crazy scolding of the Cavaliers fans, he chose to join the Celtics and played the Cavaliers up and down.
Cavaliers are not happy up and down.
But he is happy!
This No. [-] lottery is his own again!
And then, this hasn't been fun for 15 minutes yet.
The Cavaliers officially announced that they have exchanged the Lakers' Oden with the No. [-] pick!
Fake!
This ups and downs, no one can bear it?
In the end, the No. [-] lottery that he bought with his body still left him!
Pain, grievance, discomfort, the mentality is really broken.
The Lakers have Yao, and even Oden is afraid to stay. He is definitely not willing to go to the Lakers to serve as a substitute for Yao. He can choose the Cavaliers for the No. [-] pick in trial training, which shows that he is willing to give up for his career prospects. Big city players.
So, not to mention that it is impossible for the Lakers to choose him, even if the Lakers choose him, he is not very willing to go.
And because Kobe and McGrady are suspected of being reimbursed next season, and the Lakers lack a forward line, there is nothing wrong with Wiggins being the No. [-] pick.
Ugh……
What a heavy, sad sigh it was.
Wiggins, who was happy and excited next to him, felt heartbroken.
The deal between the Cavaliers and the Lakers also aroused dissatisfaction and anger from a group of people.
That is the weird management team of the Timberwolves.
My fucking pants are off, I've already packed Love and I'm about to send it to Cleveland, you fucking said your No. [-] lottery has already been sent?
Indeed, if this person is Auden, there is really no way, Love's value is indeed not as good as Auden.
So they didn't blame the Cavaliers too much, and it was still James who was angry in the end.
Isn't James playing with them?
What should we do now?
This season they sold Love for a season.
Most of the time it is done in secret.
And this time, it was absolutely public.
Love has a very good personality. At first they suspected that Love was injured, and Love was even willing to be reimbursed for the season to prove himself.
Although there was a rift with Le Fu, they still respect Le Fu's dedication.
Therefore, it is also secretly carried out when selling Love.
This time, because the temptation of the No. [-] pick is too great, and it involves James, one of the biggest traffic in the NBA, it is impossible to hide it.
Now that Le Fu can't send it out, what should I do?
No matter how good Le Fu's personality is, he can't stand this insult.
Oh, you send each other away, and stay if you want. Who do you think I am?
What's more, the Timberwolves actually didn't want to keep Love.
Of course, Love actually has no intention of staying in the Timberwolves.
Love made it clear last month: If the team does not trade me away as soon as possible, I will choose to enter the free agent market in 2015 and become a completely free agent.
Love can jump out of the contract next year.
After encountering the bombing incident that made the Timberwolves fans not know how to complain, Love and the Timberwolves have completely lost their trust. The Timberwolves themselves were shocked and grateful.
Averaged 26.1 points, 12.5 rebounds and 4.4 assists per game.
Love was once an MVP candidate.
Love wants to leave, but he also wants to play his best performance and leave more chips for the Timberwolves.
Love wanted to leave, and he also applied after the season ended.
The application was submitted in May, and on the last Friday night in May, Love and his friends showed up at a bar near the TD Garden, home of the Celtics.
This of course aroused the infinite reverie of Celtics fans.
A white man with such outstanding strength as Love directly pokes the G-spot of Kaizi fans.
They love Lefu to death.
So after Love appeared in Boston, Celtics fans went crazy, and in the next few days, social media was flooded with pictures of Love walking the streets of Boston.
These are all sneak shots of the Celtics fans, which are much more enthusiastic than the sneak shots of James.
The whole Lefu himself was deceived.
In the end, Le Fu himself stood up and responded to this incident: "I don't know what's going on. Someone leaked most of my schedule. They know exactly what I do and when, and they make my life a little bit different. It’s a mess, I understand their feelings, but please also understand my feelings, respect me, respect my team, my appearance in Boston has nothing to do with the trade.”
You really can't fault Le Fu's emotional intelligence.
On the contrary, some players on the Celtics side are very upset.
The Celtics star Sullinger said directly: "Hey, man, do you think I am mentally retarded? I am not mentally retarded. If you tell me that Sullinger can be exchanged for Love, I will agree without hesitation. deal, yes, I'm ready to leave, but some people can be tougher and more aboveboard."
Who wants to leave Boston for a place like Minnesota?
At that time, news that the Timberwolves and the Celtics were about to reach a deal was flying all over the sky, and the news was not suppressed until the finals started.
According to the news at the time, the Timberwolves wanted Jeff Green, Sullinger, Brand Bass and the Celtics' sixth pick this year.
The bargaining chips in this deal were actually not high, but the reason why they didn't make the trip was because they were stuck on the sixth lottery.
Danny Ainge is desperately unwilling to send the No. [-] pick out.
Danny Ainge even expressed his willingness to use Rondo in exchange for more bargaining chips for Love, without sending the sixth pick.
Angie was so determined that the Timberwolves had no choice but to wait.
Who would have thought that the finals would be over, and everything would have changed.
James wants to return to the Cavaliers, and the Cavaliers are willing to send the No. [-] pick in exchange for Love.
The Timberwolves naturally rejected the deal with the Ainge Celtics.
Now, being put out like this by James, isn't it messing with me? !
James' choice to go to the Celtics really offended a bunch of people and changed the operation of a bunch of NBA teams.
Now the Timberwolves management and Love are directly embarrassed.
What makes the Timberwolves management even more uncomfortable and embarrassing is that Danny Ainge, the general manager of the Boston Celtics, TM actually sent that trading chip to himself again!
Jeff Green, Sullinger, Brandon Bass.
Isn't this fucking disgusting?
It's not that this chip is bad.
Sullinger is a second-year insider who averaged 14+9 per game last season. He has great potential and is also the most valuable player in this offer.
Both Jeff Green and Brandon Bass were powerful players who averaged more than 10 points per game last season. Jeff Green averaged 17 points per game and Brandon Bass averaged 11 points per game.
The Timberwolves are not dissatisfied with these three people, but the Timberwolves definitely want more.
It’s best to have a high-ranking draft pick. What about Rondo’s bargaining chip? Has your Rondo been traded?
No deal, no bargaining chip, you guys make a crazy offer!
You don't really think that we are stupid. We rejected you before, but now we will agree?
Do you really think that no one wants Le Fu or what?
In the past few seasons, Love has been really embarrassing in the NBA.
The data is excellent, super giant data, but the status is not even a superstar. Many fans say that he is a data brush. Fans and experts all think that he is an All-Star player, an oversized David Lee.
It's a pity that it's a pity that it's tasteless to eat.
Love's stats last season and peak Garnett's are exactly the same except that his shooting percentage is 10 percentage points lower. If it's 26-year-old Garnett, if the Timberwolves want to trade, the entire league will go crazy.
But love...
As an insider, the shooting rate is 45%, which is very terrible.
Although Love is not so easy to get rid of, the Timberwolves will not really let Angie and the Celtics take advantage of it.
Naturally, the offer was rejected.
Angie was not surprised by this.
"Danny, why are you still doing this?"
"Try it a few times, and there will always be surprises. When their emotions become more and more impatient, they will make some dizzy decisions."
This is the essence of stalking.
"How about Chris Paul?"
If the rumors of Kevin Love and the Celtics are the biggest player trade rumors during the playoffs, then the Los Angeles Clippers are the biggest fun during the NBA playoffs.
During the playoffs between the Clippers and the Warriors, the American online media "TMZ" exposed a recording of a conversation between Sterling and his girlfriend. The Clippers owner accused his girlfriend of putting a photo of him with a black friend in the recording. Personal webpage, and named names "especially don't bring 'Magic' Johnson".
Once this racially discriminatory speech was exposed, it caused an uproar and drew unanimous condemnation from all sides.
In the United States, discrimination against black people is a serious crime, and he is also a magician with extremely high status in the NBA.
One stone caused a thousand waves, and a large number of black players were furious. Mason, the vice chairman of the NBA Players Union, said that the players were ready to strike.
Faced with such aggressive public opinion, David Stern dealt with it decisively. Sterling was suspended for life and fined 250 million US dollars. Get out of the NBA.
David Stern's decisive disposition has won the respect of the entire league.
The decision of David Stern and the league naturally won the respect and satisfaction of the players in the entire league.
But how could Sterling be satisfied?
I just say hello, you want me to die?
Who can bear this?
Just a week ago, Sterling turned down a $20 billion offer from Ballmer.
At the same time, Sterling also issued a statement that "the team is not for sale", solemnly announcing that he will not sell the team. At the same time, he also asked his lawyer to sue the NBA, demanding that the league compensate him 10 billion US dollars.
In fact, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Sterling, a stalker, is dissatisfied with the $20 billion acquisition.
Sterling spent 34 million US dollars to buy the Clippers 1300 years ago, and now it has become 20 billion, which is already very good.
However, any fool can see that the popularity and ratings of the NBA have exploded now.
The ratings of the Lakers and Knicks finals this year, the ratings of G6 and G7 even exceeded 25%. What does this mean?
It means that the value of the NBA has caught up to one-half of the NFL.
20 billion dollars?
$20 billion would buy a team like the Bobcats.
Jordan is now selling the Bobcats, and the offer is also 20 billion US dollars.
Ballmer bid 20 billion to buy the Clippers, isn't this taking advantage of the fire?
No matter how demented Sterling is, it is impossible to agree.
Sterling's price for the Clippers must be at least $30 billion.
This is the deadlock here.
Ballmer is rich, but the $30 billion in cash is not so easy to get out.
More importantly, if you take out 30 billion, will he ask for 40 billion?
Also, Sterling is indeed racially discriminatory, but private property cannot be violated, at least on the surface.
The Clippers are in California. If they were in Texas, guess if Sterling sued the NBA in the end, would the NBA win or Sterling win?
Sterling's racial discrimination is wrong. There is no problem with David Stern's decision to ban Sterling for life, but forcing Sterling to sell the team is a muddled account.
In the end, it went to the Supreme Court, and it was really not sure who would win.
David Stern's punishment is an expulsion order, but it is not mandatory. It means that we don't want to play with you anymore, so get out.
Sterling will go, but the money needs to be in place.
The money is not in place, he has a lot of ways to disgust the alliance.
So some are noisy.
Because the popularity of the NBA has soared in the past two seasons, even the best actuary will take time to calculate the valuation of NBA teams.
Sterling is now patiently refusing to leave and wants to go to court with the NBA, but the Clippers players and head coach have already broken up with the team at this time.
After Sterling's racial discrimination recording came out, Paul was Sterling who took the lead.
Since Sterling didn't want to leave, Paul naturally made a trade application.
"Danny, Chris Paul has already shown off to Doug. He will definitely not stay in the Clippers. He just wants to come to the Celtics."
Danny Ainge had a smile on his face.
The only obstacle for Paul to come to the Celtics is whether Paul is willing or not.
Sterling has been suspended by the league, and the Clippers still belong to Sterling, but Sterling is no longer talking about the Clippers.
Sterling can no longer take charge of the Clippers, but appointed Doug Rivers as the head coach and chairman of basketball operations. He can now make any changes to the Clippers' personnel according to his needs.
He is now effectively the godfather of the Clippers.
There is no boss on it.
"Before Ballmer buys the team, we must trade Chris Paul!"
"Danny, we need to convince Doug."
Danny Ainge was silent for a while.
"I'm calling Doug myself!"
Los Angeles.
The office of Clippers head coach and chairman of basketball operations Doc Rivers.
Rivers really feels like his head is getting bigger now.
"Oh, it would be great if there was Lu at this time."
Tyronn Lue went to the Cavaliers as the chief assistant coach.
Now he is really difficult in the Clippers.
He is a head coach. Now let him be the boss of the team, the acting godfather. Although he is very excited and excited, it is really difficult to deal with.
The Sterling incident made the Clippers now his team in name only.
Now he needs to deal with the mess.
Paul, Griffin, Jordan, all the players on the team have submitted trade applications at this time.
According to the current situation and public opinion, this is to put pressure on Sterling.
As long as Sterling doesn't leave, black players will definitely not stay in the Clippers.
If he hadn't been appointed as the chairman of basketball operations of the team and became the godfather of the team, he would actually not want to stay in the Clippers anymore.
Griffin and Jordan, he was appeased.
Tell them, take it easy, the team is sure to sell before next season starts.
The key question now is Chris Paul.
Looking at the newspaper in his hand, Doug Reeves had a headache.
"I have already applied for a deal. I will not play for a racially discriminatory person. If I refuse to leave, I will submit to the league for termination of arbitration. I request the termination of the contract with the Clippers and require the Clippers to compensate me for my 4-year contract. termination fee."
very intense.
Paul had obviously been appeased by him, but suddenly jumped up again, and this time the reaction was extremely violent.
No matter how stupid he is, he still knows that some team must have contacted Paul privately.
As for who this team is, it's pretty obvious.
In normal times, Paul's behavior will definitely encounter a double blow from fans and the league.
You still have such a long contract with the team. If you fail to apply for a deal, you will threaten the team to terminate the contract and ask the team to pay you a termination fee. Why don't you go to heaven?
However, now is a special time.
Now all the public opinion is supporting Paul, even NBA officials are supporting Paul. Just now Adam Silver called him and he was not allowed to stop Paul from leaving.
This is putting pressure on, and the whole world is putting pressure on it.
If the Clippers don't change owners immediately, the Clippers will definitely lose Paul.
However, there is no way for the Clippers to change the boss immediately.
This is a big deal of at least 30 billion US dollars, so it's strange that it gets up so fast.
So, what to do now?
This is an unsolvable game. Chris Paul has been attracted and must leave.
And the team to go is likely to be the Boston Celtics.
This is the most annoying.
Paul is going to other teams and he can still do work. Apart from the Knicks, Lakers and Celtics in the league, there is no better place than the Clippers.
However, it is precisely the Celtics.
He really couldn't stop it.
And just when Doug Rivers was bored, the mobile phone beside him rang, looking at the person displayed on the mobile phone, Rivers had some surprises on his face, but not so surprised.
He doesn't like Angie.
But ... this is the general manager of the Celtics.
He loves the Celtics.
Therefore, it is impossible for him not to answer.
"Doug, I know you won't listen to what I have to say, and I don't want to say more, I just want to ask you now, remember the robbery deal that Jerry West sent Gasol to the Lakers That trade ruined our dynasty, the Lakers, ruined our dynasty!"
Doug Reeves, who wanted to hear Danny Ainge's sophistry, was stunned.
He originally thought that Angie would explain why he wanted to seduce Paul, and then apologize to him, asking him to give Paul a break and support the Celtics.
I didn't expect Danny Angie to say such a thing to him.
Of course he remembers the robbery deal that Jerry West and the Lakers completed in 2008.
Angie said that without that deal, the Celtics might become a dynasty, which is possible.
At the very least, there will be at least one more championship.
It's Danny Ainge's pain, and it's his pain.
"Doug, it is impossible for Paul to stay in the Clippers. Even if you force Paul to stay, he will be bad. The Clippers' record next season will be very bad, and the Clippers' first-round pick in 2015 is in our Now the Clippers have a chance to get back their 2015 first-round pick."
"Doug, what I want to say has been made very clear, and now I know you need to think about time."
"And, Doug, Rajon said he missed you."
After speaking, Danny Angie hung up the phone.
Doug Reeves was left in a daze.
I have never seen such a soft food and hard food!
When he was in the Boston Celtics, Danny Angie has been cpu him, and now he is already the godfather of the Clippers, this guy still cups him like this!
Of course, he knew that Danny Ainge didn't want to be soft on him, just like he didn't want to be soft on Danny Ainge.
Danny Angie’s words actually mean only one thing. If you still call yourself a Boston Celtic, just think about Jerry West back then. I’m not asking you to send Paul for nothing. I will send it back to you. As far as the current situation of the Clippers is concerned, there is a high probability that the Clippers’ record will collapse next season. As long as the owner cannot be quickly changed, the Clippers will be in a mess next season, let alone the strength of the Clippers in the West. It's not that top-notch, even if it's top-notch, the Clippers' record will collapse even if their morale has collapsed.
At that time, the Clippers' first-round pick in 2015 will be worth a lot.
Especially Danny Angie's last sentence is simply a king bomb to Rivers.
Rondo said he missed him...
Before Danny Ainge sent Pierce and Garnett away, he and Rondo were very dissatisfied.
In the end, he was sent to the Clippers, in exchange for the Clippers' first-round pick in 2015. Danny Ainge's operation was like breaking other people's waists. Sending the head coach away can also be exchanged for the first-round pick. .
Now this first-round pick has become a bargaining chip for the Clippers.
After they were sent away, Rondo also wanted to leave. He applied to Danny Ainge for a deal last season, but Ainge never sent it.
Last season, Danny Ainge directly froze Rondo and let the team suck.
Rondo's life with the Celtics was very unsatisfactory.
Now how to do?
Danny Angie is willing to trade Rondo + the Clippers' first-round pick in 2015 and the Celtics' first-round pick in the future for Paul.
Doug Reeves doesn't know what to do now.
This bargaining chip is much richer than when the Lakers traded for Gasol.
But Gasol's player level can't be compared with Paul's.
The key is that his level cannot be compared with Jerry West!
Even if Jerry West gave the entire Grizzlies team to the Lakers for free, others would complain at most and dare not do anything to Jerry West.
But he can't!
If he wants to do this, he will definitely not be able to do it in the Clippers in the future, not even in the NBA!
Now how to do?
This has surpassed the upper limit of Rivers' IQ.
In the end, Rivers called his Tylen Lue.
cleveland.
After listening to Rivers' words, Tyronn Lue was also silent.
As the assistant coach of the Cavaliers, in terms of professional ethics, he should prevent the Celtics from strengthening.
But now Doug is in such pain...
In the end, Tylen Lu still sighed.
"Doug, you call Ballmer and explain the situation of the Clippers to Ballmer. Do whatever Ballmer asks you to do."
After listening to Tylen Lue's suggestion, Rivers was stunned.
Fake!
Lu, you can!
Why didn't I think of it?
Let Ballmer make this decision!
Ballmer is not the owner of the Clippers yet, but there are only a few in the world who have the financial resources to buy the Clippers, and Ballmer is the most likely.
Regardless of whether it is half a year or a year, Ballmer has a high probability of being the new owner of the Clippers.
He makes the decision, I listen to him, don't I have to take the blame?
Ballmer is not the boss now, so I just listen to him. When Ballmer takes office, he will definitely not fire me.
This is perfect!
After hanging up the phone with Tyronn Lue, Rivers felt that he had been missing Tyronn Lue for so long.
In fact, there is one thing Rivers didn't think of.
That is, Paul wants to leave wholeheartedly, and the Clippers are now in a mess, and Ballmer can't solve it.
In the end, Rivers will definitely reciprocate and let Rivers decide, and the pressure on Rivers will disappear in an instant.
"Doug, you can call me and explain the situation. I am very happy, but I am not the owner of the Clippers. I am also very clear about the current situation of the Clippers. Now I will definitely not be able to stay in the team for a short time. If If you think it is more important to recover the team's high-quality assets, I will fully support your decision, and if you think it is more important to keep Paul, I will also fully support you."
Ballmer's words and trust let Rivers unload all the burden.
Rivers, without any pressure, finally called Danny Ainge.
"Danny, I not only want Rajon and the Clippers' first-round pick in 2015, but I also want at least two first-round picks from Boston."
"no problem."
Danny Ainge's straightforwardness even stunned Rivers.
Is this still that iron cock?
"Danny, don't we have to bargain?"
"This time, the sooner the better, the later will change."
The current situation of the Clippers is very complicated, and it is likely to be a situation every day.
"As long as we hold on to the Nets' first-round pick, the Celtics' first-round pick will not be worth much from this year."
The draft is about to begin.
But the transactions before the draft are dazzling.
First, James announced that he would join the Celtics.
Then the Cavaliers and Lakers announced the No. [-] pick for Oden.
Then, on June 6, the day before the draft.
The Boston Celtics and Clippers reached a deal that once again rocked the league.
The Boston Celtics announced the use of Rajon Rondo as the main body plus Gerald Wallace and the Clippers' first-round pick in 2015, 2015, 2018, and the 2020 Celtics' first-round pick from the Clippers The fleet traded for Chris Paul.
Danny Ainge even sent an extra first-round pick to let the Clippers help eat Gerald Wallace's contract.
Gerald Wallace is 32 years old now. He has been affected by injuries in the past two seasons, but his age is not too old. In addition, the contract is 2 million for 2000 years, which is not too big, so it is not a rubbish contract. At least not now, you can take a gamble.
The Celtics are clearing space for a naked James.
The Celtics traded Rondo and Gerald Wallace plus four first-round picks for Chris Paul.
The popularity of this transaction is absolutely no worse than the previous transaction between the Cavaliers and the Lakers.
Although the rise of Westbrook and Curry in the last two seasons has made Paul's number one point guard less taken for granted.
But Paul is definitely still a superstar recognized by the league, a giant-level player.
And it's a proper top ten player in the league.
The point is, Paul and James seem to fit so well!
James has just joined the Celtics, and Paul will come soon.
This made Celtic fans happy.
"Next season, the Boston Celtics will once again become the No. [-] team in the NBA!"
"Los Angeles Lakers, enjoy the time of the No. [-] giant this year. From next year, it will be the era of the Boston Celtics!"
On the Internet, after the Celtics got Paul, the fans really described it as crazy.
Even James was very excited.
After the deal between the Celtics and the Clippers was completed, James immediately began to welcome him affectionately on Twitter.
"Welcome to Boston, my brother, starting today, Boston belongs to King&CP3!"
Behind the Twitter is a string of crowns, which shows how excited James is.
James is excited, the Celtics are excited, James' fans are excited.
Leave a message below.
"King, don't forget about Dwyane Wade!!!"
Yes, James fans are now speaking out for Wade.
This is very interesting.
Wade's fans don't even want Wade to continue to be teammates with James. My family, Sao Dezi, has been sucked blood and numb by James all these years!
Wade can't play James at all.
But James fans are looking forward to seeing Wade go to James.
Wade has been James' most reliable teammate in recent years, and Wade has really struggled for James in the past two years. I feel very guilty.
And in the face of such voices, Wade also moved very quickly. On the day Paul came to the Boston Celtics, Wade announced that he would jump out of the contract.
Wade's statement has been very clear.
It is to advance and retreat with James.
Just wait for the Celtics and James to come to him.
In fact, Wade is really very excited now.
Here comes Chris!
Chris went to assist LeBron!
Not disrespectful to Anthony, in terms of fit, Chris is indeed more suitable for LeBron.
Now that LeBron has gone to the Celtics and has reserved assistance, Wade is completely relieved.
The Celtics are stable next season!
And I heard that the Celtics are still looking for a third giant!
This is very cool!
Now that I'm in position, I can compete with LeBron for the championship again.
Although the Celtics didn't stand up on the spot, but it doesn't matter so much, let's talk about winning the championship first, now LeBron is still young, and it is a team like the Celtics, the future is not without a dynasty Opportunity!
"TMC, I'm sure I'll win this bet, you just wait to jump out of the minimum contract salary and come to the Boston Celtics, hahahaha!"
Wade, who has been molested by Maizi these days, really can't stand Maizi anymore.
So now seeing LeBron stand up again, Wade is really happy and excited.
"Dwyane, you don't have to be so happy, do you? Did James and the Celtics come to you?"
Before Maizi could speak, Dayao pushed Kezi in the wheelchair, and Kezi laughed and joked, which made Wade very upset.
"Now LeBron and the Celtics have a lot of things to do. LeBron himself hasn't signed with the Celtics yet. Why are you so anxious!"
After Wade finished speaking confidently, Bosh next to him fell silent.
Bosh has been in New York recently, so he will come here to see Wade from time to time.
"Where's Dwight?"
"Still curled up there like a dead dog."
Kobe sighed.
This guy is really useless now.
This has not yet been operated on, so he just frightened himself like this.
Isn't it 90% likely to be paralyzed?
Isn't there still a 10% possibility?
Kobe felt that on the court, even if there was a 1% possibility, he would make a shot. This is a 10% possibility!
As long as you are strong, even if you are paralyzed, you will die on the court, and it is worth it to die on the battlefield like a warrior.
Now treat yourself like a piece of trash.
"Don't worry about that guy, let's see how my revised script is going? Yes, I'll come over tomorrow, and the movie will be ready to shoot by then."
Outside, the NBA was surging, but in the hospital, Kezi and the others didn't seem to pay any attention to what was going on outside. Watching Maizi, Kezi and Dayao discussing the script there, Wade couldn't stand it.
"You really don't pay attention to the outside world at all, don't you worry that Coach D and the Lakers will be beaten up by the Celtics next season?"
After Wade finished speaking, he found that Kobe, McGrady and Yao Ming looked at him with very strange eyes.
"When did you see Coach D get beaten up?"
"..."
For a moment Wade had nothing to say.
It seems, it seems, it really is.
"The Celtics are under a lot of pressure, but the coach must have his own calculations. We are players, so we just need to trust the coach."
"..."
Wade was dumbfounded.
When did the super giants of the NBA stop giving pointers to the team?
Aren't the NBA teams all super giants with the biggest voice?
Even though the Lakers are very special, coach D has the right to speak first, but does the Super Giant really not interfere with the team's affairs at all?
Mixing with Kezi and Maizi here these days, Wade always feels that his three views are constantly being refreshed.
"Coach D, he must be scared out of his wits now!"
Finally, Wade gritted his teeth stubbornly and said viciously!
Los Angeles.
Of course Du Kang was not frightened.
"Du, tomorrow is the draft. Are you really not going to invite players for trial training?"
"Even if you want to invite a trial training, it's too late now, isn't it?"
After Hamm finished speaking, Nash pushed back what Hamm had said.
For this matter, Hamm was really speechless.
It has been a while since the Lakers got the No. [-] pick.
But Coach D just doesn't organize tryouts, and doesn't invite those hot rookies to tryouts.
Although the Lakers will definitely choose Wiggins for the No. [-] pick this time.
However, should Wiggins also be allowed to come and practice?
Many people are saying that Wiggins' agent and himself are waiting for the invitation of Coach D and the Lakers.
"Since you won't choose them, why bother to affect their trial training schedule?"
These players are also busy now.
Moreover, Du Kang has long been attached to his heart.
The system's draft predictions have a very interesting player.
He was obviously the No. [-] pick in the system evaluation, but before the start of the draft, there was a lot of ridicule and scolding.
After this person participated in the Celtics' trial training, he fell from the No. [-] pick all the way to the end of the current first round.
Then he was scolded by Danny Angie and returned to Europe with a broken mentality.
Isn't this weird?
If he didn't have a system, he would have been shaken by Danny Ainge.
Obviously, the effect of Jokic's trial training with the Celtics is not too bad, but too good.
So good that Danny Ainge thinks his No. [-] pick probably won't sign him.
Now that Danny Ainge has already tried out for him, what else is there for him to try out?
It's a blind pick.
Boston.
"LeBron, Chris, let's go to New York to meet your new teammates"
Not Gordon, whom the Celtics have been talking about lately, but the European.
And in New York.
At this point Jokic has returned from Europe.
Well, he received an invite to the NBA's Green Room.
As the top pick this year, he is still a European player, so it is normal to be invited by the small green house.
June 2014, 6, at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.
Jokic came to sit down at the round table in the small green room, and soon there were a lot of pointing eyes around him.
"This is the European pork belly, right? Hahahaha what Danny Angie said is really good. At first glance, his face is full of unhealthy. Such a player was once the top pick in the draft. Yao really took a group of cats and dogs away. .”
"This guy can sit on the round table in the small green room in the draft. Will it be the greatest achievement of his basketball career?"
"I can't wait for him to fail in the Little Green House, hahahaha..."
A bunch of ridicules, whether it is the players or the media, are laughing at Jokic.
The mentality of ordinary young players has collapsed at this time.
In fact, the mentality of the family next to Jokic has collapsed.
"Nicolas, are you sure you can be selected high?"
"determine."
Jokic simply pretended that the eyes and sarcasm from the side didn't exist, and was drinking Coke leisurely alone.
I don't worry about what the Celtics will do if they don't choose themselves.
Compared with Jokic, Wiggins, who is destined to be the No. [-] pick, is now very nervous and uneasy.
"Danny Ainge, LeBron James, Chris Paul is here!!!"
At this moment, the entire Barclays Center caused a commotion.
Gordon, who has been rumored a lot with the Celtics recently, is excited.
Is this to greet him?
He was really flattered to make such a big commotion in order to welcome him!
And almost at the same time, the entire arena caused a bigger sensation.
"Fake!! Coach D!!! Coach D is here!!!"
The uneasy Wiggins trembled with excitement for an instant, and even stood up directly.
Seeing Wiggins so excited, Du Kang froze for a moment, and then gave him a cheering look.
Then, Du Kang's eyes excited Wiggins, not only Wiggins, but the whole arena!
"Coach D is definitely going to choose Wiggins! Coach D's vision of seeing people and cultivating people, if he doesn't choose Wiggins, then Wiggins must be trash!!!"
Seeing the interaction between Du Kang and Wiggins, the management of many teams around and in front of the TV sighed.
Coach D's draft talent and ability to see and train people are top in the NBA.
Wiggins is a young genius and the front line the Lakers desperately need.
Coach D has the No. [-] pick again, and of course Wiggins must be chosen.
If Wiggins is not selected, then it can only be that Wiggins may not be so good.
And this is why Wiggins is so excited and trembling.
Selected by Coach D, he will go to heaven.
And if Coach D doesn't choose him, he doesn't say he's going to hell, at least, he's very likely to collapse!
Du Kang was actually just encouraging, he had no other thoughts, and he didn't know that the surroundings were suddenly like this.
"Coach D, Wiggins is a good player."
Danny Angie narrowed his eyes and said with a smile.
"Yeah, Jokic is also a very good player."
"..."
Danny Angie was dumbfounded.
James and Paul next to him were also dumbfounded.
And right now.
The talent show has begun!
"In the 2014 NBA draft, the first pick in the first round of the Los Angeles Lakers is the center from Serbia, Nikola Jokic!"
After David Stern finished reading, the whole world fell silent.
Even David Stern himself was actually fooled.
Jokic, the No. [-] pick? ! ! ! !
Puff!
Jokic couldn't bear it anymore, he didn't want to spray forward, turned his head, and sprayed directly on the face of James who was holding the hat in his hand.
After a moment.
The whole world is crazy!
"Is Coach D crazy? The No. [-] pick Jokic?!"
"The Lakers have Yao Ming, what do they want Jokic?"
"Could it be that Coach D is not optimistic about Wiggins, so he chose one at random?"
"How bad is Wiggins that Coach D despises him so much!"
Wiggins was dumbfounded.
Wiggins was blinded.
Wiggins feels like he's gone crazy!
With the second pick, Milwaukee selected Parker.
With the third pick, the 76ers selected Embiid.
With the fourth pick, the Magic selected Aaron Gordon.
These teams have their own first choice. The Magic thought about it for a while, and finally chose the more familiar Gordon. They haven't seriously investigated Wiggins recently, and Wiggins has been waiting for the Lakers.
As for the Jazz with the fifth pick, they already had Gordon Hayward, and finally chose guard Dante Exum.
Wiggins, fell to the sixth pick!
It's not that Jokic is no one cares about, it's that Wiggins has become no one cares about!
"My goodness!!!"
"Crazy talent show!!!"
Even crazier!
Danny Angie, who was already stupid, jumped up excitedly at this time!
He lost Jokic!
But his sixth pick could get Wiggins! ! !
What a roller coaster it is!
And at this moment, Danny Ainge's cell phone rang.
It's Timberwolves' call.
Danny Ainge's eyes narrowed.
The Timberwolves want to rebuild, and the Timberwolves need the core of rebuilding.
As for Wiggins, although he doesn't know why Coach D didn't choose him, his talent has potential.
At the very least, apart from the first five, none of the players in the back are at the level of Wiggins.
in that moment.
The sixth pick in his hand suddenly became valuable!
This is really a surprise!
Now he needs to make a decision!
Do you want Wiggins or Love!
James can't control the Coke sprayed by Jokic on his head at this time.
very excited.
James is really excited.
Glancing at Coach D who was talking to Jokic not far away, James really felt crazy.
Coach D never dreamed that he would help us so much!
"Danny, we're going to win a championship next season!!!"
The Big Three of the Celtics group and the draft are not divided into chapters, they are two in one.
