Coach, I don't want to retire yet

Chapter 237 In the summer of 2014, the crazy free market!
"Monty, are you really going to accept the offer from the Boston Celtics?"

At home in San Antonio, Monty Williams is hosting a group of young Pelicans, Eric Gordon, Thick Eyebrows, Austin Rivers and more.

Monty Williams' contract with the Pelicans is over.

The Pelicans definitely want to keep this NBA wizard.

Being a player can make Jordan powerless.

Being a head coach can make Coach D powerless.

He is still so young, the Pelicans even hope that he can become the godfather of the team.

The Pelicans know that they are not competitive enough, the team does not have enough strength, and they do not have enough financial resources. More importantly, the city is not that big and is not attractive enough to players.

So in the face of a situation where the entire league is surrounded by wolves fighting for Monty Williams, the Pelicans know it is difficult.

But no matter how difficult it is, they still want to work hard.

Before the Pelicans competed for Monty Williams' biggest opponent was none other than the Spurs.

Monty Williams is a coach trained by the Spurs system.

His playing days were spent playing alongside Spurs legends like David Robinson and Sean Elliott.

He became a coach after retiring, and he also spent the internship stage of his assistant career in the San Antonio Spurs.

After the contract between Monty Williams and the Pelicans expired this season, Monty Williams said that he is not strong enough to lead the Pelicans to the playoffs and needs further training, so he does not want to renew his contract with the Pelicans for the time being.

After hearing the news, Popovich immediately invited Williams to return to the Spurs as the team's deputy general manager, vice president of basketball operations and team assistant coach.

According to reports, Popovich specially prepared this position for Williams.

Deputy to the three most powerful positions in the entire Spurs.

The meaning of the successor is very strong.

This is the meaning of making Monty Williams his own prince.

Of course, some people say that Popovich was scared of being beaten by Coach D. He needs to match a coach D's nemesis in his coaching staff, and is there a more suitable candidate in the entire league than Monty Williams?

Of course not.

Since Monty Williams wants to learn, let's go back to the Spurs to learn. The Spurs have found the present and the future, which is perfect.

Monty Williams is already heartbroken, and learning from Popovich is indeed the best place to go.

And the Spurs are so sincere.

It's just that Monty Williams never thought that James would recommend him as the head coach of the Celtics.

Monty Williams didn't feel like he knew James very well.

Perhaps the only intersection between the two is the 2013 All-Star Weekend, right?
At that time, James was beaten by McGrady and him in the heads-up game of the All-Star Weekend, and he said something to James.

It seemed that James recognized him very much.

Faced with such an invitation from the Celtics, it is impossible for anyone to refuse.

After all, the Celtics' invitation is the team's deputy general manager and head coach.

Danny Ainge directly stated that as long as the Celtics can win the championship, he will retire. After his retirement, Monty Williams will be the general manager and head coach of the team.

The whole Celtics, he will be 'not the godfather's godfather'!
The godfather of the Celtics is only one cardinal.

And he Monty Williams can become the greatest head coach of the Celtics after the Cardinal.

No one can refuse this pie, right?

At the very least, Monty Williams definitely couldn't refuse.

Therefore, in the face of these young players from the Pelicans asking him why he wanted to go to the Celtics, Monty Williams stated the conditions for the Celtics to invite him, and then everyone was silent.

Even the Pelicans can't give this condition.

Although the Pelicans executives have always said that Monty Williams is the godfather of the team.

But these guys mean, who the fuck wants to put a godfather on their head?
Who the hell wants to be a little wife like Kupchak?

Such things as power should not be said by mouth, but should really be delegated.

And this is the fundamental reason why Monty Williams left the Pelicans.

Although he knows that he is not that strong, but his reputation is already so high, and he can't make it to the playoffs every year. Do you think he is under a lot of pressure?

There is no power no opportunity in the Pelicans.

On other teams, Monty Williams has no confidence in success.

Rather than doing this, it is better to temporarily retire, and when your enthusiasm cools down, you don't have such great expectations, and then come out to coach.

This can also be regarded as the best choice when retreating bravely and not being able to match virtue.

Therefore, he finally chose the invitation of the Spurs.

It's just that the Celtics' invitation really fits his situation perfectly.

The team is strong enough to cover up his lack of strength.

There is not much competition in the Eastern Conference, and they can steadily enter the finals.

This way he can teach and learn at the same time, which is the best.

What's more, he might become the godfather of the giant Celtics in the future.

Coach D led the Lakers to win the championship this year, and finally led the Lakers to overtake the Celtics and become the No. [-] giant. This is an eternal story in the NBA.

He is as famous as Coach D, the magical Monty. If he can lead the Celtics and surpass the Lakers in the future, will he really be able to be as famous as Coach D?
The temptation for Monty Williams is very great.

Even the young Pelicans players on the scene felt the expectations of Monty Williams, because even if they were Monty Williams, they would make such a choice.

"Monty, I want to go to the Celtics with you!"

The words of the thick eyebrows stunned the Pelicans players on the scene.

Boss, are you serious or kidding?
The team asked me to persuade Monty to change his mind, and didn't ask you to vote with Monty!
Even Monty Williams was actually surprised.

But after being surprised, it is naturally a surprise.

As a head coach with poor strength, he likes to use his cronies and familiar players very much.

When he arrived at the Celtics, he didn't have the confidence to start working immediately and instill ideas. If he had a confidant like Nongmei, things would be much easier.

"Danny, I agree with your invitation, I can go to Celtic, but I hope you can bring Anthony."

Danny Ainge thought it was that Anthony at first.

When you know it's thick eyebrows.

Danny Ainge was just crazy with excitement.

This is a thick eyebrow, the real future No. [-] power forward in the NBA!
He is willing to come to the Celtics, this is really a perfect buy one get one free!
"Danny, are we really sending Avery Bradley out?"

"Send it out, for the sake of Anthony Davis, no one on the team is not for sale!"

Wiggins definitely can't change his thick eyebrows. Adding Olynyk is also reluctant, but if adding Avery Bradley, it's just right.

The right thing to say here is to seek a third party. In fact, the value of these three people is greater than that of thick eyebrows. It is a loss to just send them out like this.

"The Pelicans have Ju Holiday and don't need Avery Bradley, but the Clippers need it. Contact Doug."

Soon, the Boston Celtics and Bradley signed a 4-year 3600 million contract.

"Doug, the Boston Celtics are willing to trade Avery Bradley, but..."

"But what?"

"However, they need three first-round picks from Redick and the Celtics who were previously traded."

Hearing this, Doug Rivers was dumbfounded, and his face immediately became very ugly!

Fake!

This Nima's!

If this deal is really reached, it is equivalent to the two deals between him and the Celtics. Bradley Gallondo and Gerald Wallace speed up the ship's 2015 first-round pick to replace Paul and Redick!
Although it is not a big loss, it is definitely a loss!
"Doug, refuse?"

"No, accept."

Doug Reeves gritted his teeth and accepted.

"Avery has the potential to become a star player and can become one of the rebuilding cores of the Clippers in the future."

More importantly, Bradley is his own.

And the Celtics are his own.

He could actually grind with Danny Ainge again, and should be able to grind away a first-round pick, but...

Let the Celtics do it.

Jerry West...

This is the first of its kind for you!
Danny Ainge is Danny Ainge.

Celts are Celts.

Doug Reeves picked up his cell phone and dialed it himself.

"Danny, I want Austin."

Austin Rivers is his son.

With Paul gone, there is room for the team to develop. His son was once the No. [-] high school student in the United States. Now, maybe he can still be saved.

This is also selfishness.

"Coach, what do you think of this deal with the Celtics?"

In the head coach's office of the Los Angeles Lakers, Du Kang saw the Celtics' three-way deal from the newspaper.

The Celtics sent Wiggins, Olynyk, Avery Bradley three extremely high-quality young players and their own team.

The Clippers sent Redick, Jamal Crawford and three first-round picks to the Boston Celtics in 2015, 2017 and 2020.

The Pelicans sent thick eyebrows and Austin Rivers.

The Celtics got Redick, Thick Eyebrows and Jamal Crawford.

The Clippers got Avery Bradley and Austin Rivers.

The Pelicans got three first-round picks from Wiggins, Olynyk and the Celtics.

"Du, the Clippers fans on the Internet are already cursing like crazy, saying that Greaves is selling out the team!"

"Darwin, are you sure you're a Clippers fan?"

Nash's words made Hamm speechless.

What kind of fans can the Clippers have now, especially after Paul left, there are not many Clippers fans.

Those who are now yelling at Rivers are deformed Lakers fans.

"The team can't be sold in a short time, plus Paul leaves, the Clippers get back their draft picks, the Clippers will have internal and external troubles next season, and the record will definitely not be good. More potential young players, Redick and Jamal Crawford don't make sense for the rebuilding Clippers, neither of them want to stay in the Clippers, this is a good deal for the Clippers."

Clifford's words made both Nash and Hamm stunned.

"Steve, what you haven't said is that the Clippers got Austin Rivers. In Doc Rivers' mind, the value of Austin Rivers is an All-Star level."

After Du Kang finished speaking with a smile, Clifford was a little embarrassed.

He actually saved face for Rivers.

Rivers has a wide network of contacts in the NBA. He is a good guy, and everyone is actually willing to give him face.

Rivers' coaching strength may be controversial, but his personality is not so controversial.

Especially in coaching circles.

"Danny Angie really takes advantage of everything."

After feeling the desire of Doug Reeves for Austin Rivers, Danny Ainge must have hit the bones again.

"Coach, now the Celtics have Paul, James and Anthony Davis three star players, plus Redick, Jamal Crawford, Jeff Green, Sullinger, Brandon Bass With excellent role players, the Celtics are already very good."

Nash looked worried. Although the Lakers have little chance of winning three consecutive championships, it is too difficult to rush out of the West.

But after all, the Lakers have won two consecutive championships, and they always have the idea of ​​​​three consecutive championships.

Now the Celtics are almost invincible in Nash's view.

This is not counting the rookie Smart selected by the Celtics in this year's NBA draft.

Is it possible that Danny Ainge and the Celtics are willing to trade Avery Bradley to the Clippers because Smart exceeded the Celtics' expectations?

In short, such a strong Celtics will explode in attraction to other veterans in the league who want to hold their legs to win the championship, right?

When the time comes, how will the Celtics beat?

In fact, this issue is not only considered by the Lakers, but also by all teams in the entire Western Conference that are aiming for a championship.

"Steve, there will be no Lakers next season, but it will be even more difficult to win the championship!"

"Yes."

Cole nodded with a sigh.

The current NBA is indeed difficult to deal with.

In fact, the Lakers should have been completely rebuilt last season, but Coach D relied on his own ability and magic to forcibly continue a wave for the Lakers and win a championship.

This season, Kobe and McGrady are reimbursed for the season, and the Lakers are finally about to rebuild, but the Eastern Conference has strengthened epically.

The main reason is that the strongest team in the East has been strengthened at an epic level.

Paul, thick eyebrows and James, the combination of the Big Three is strong and reasonable!

but!

"If we enter the finals, we will not be worse than the Celtics!"

Although the Warriors don't have any Big Three, their strength is definitely not bad!
"Steve, the Timberwolves are making an offer again!"

The Timberwolves made an offer again?

Cole laughed.

The Timberwolves are really persistent.

"Mr. Jerry West must have refused again?"

"No, this time, Mr. Jerry West accepted!"

what? !

Cole was dumbfounded.

Accepted? !

how can that be? !
Cole is really stupid!
Love is of course a very good player. He likes Love very much and wants to have Love in the team very much.

Love can support, can make three-pointers, and can play singles at the basket. Except for defense, it almost perfectly fits his offensive system.

However, Klay is also an indispensable player for his offensive system!
If he had to choose, he definitely wanted to keep Clay!

"It's such a big deal to trade Clay, why don't you listen to my advice!"

"Trading Clay? Steve, what are you talking about? Mr. Jerry West agreed to the Timberwolves' proposal to trade Harrison Barnes and Bogut with Love."

what? !

Harris Barnes?

Bogut?
this……

Cole felt a little embarrassed at this moment.

Of course, Barnes is also a very good young player.

This second-year rookie, in his rookie season, averaged 16 points per game in the playoffs. Last season, he also averaged 15 points per game in the playoffs. He is the best after the Warriors' star players. players.

The North Carolina Flying Eagles have outstanding talent and good skills. In addition, they are only 22 years old now. They must be a player with great potential, and the transaction value is very high.

As for Bogut, his screens and rim protection are very good, and he was indispensable for the Warriors before Yi arrived.

But the arrival of Yi and Iguodala last season obviously changed all that.

The arrival of Iguodala damaged Harris Barnes' fighting spirit, and in many games he had no fighting spirit or confidence.

The same is true for Bogut, who lost his desire to play with the arrival of Yi.

These two are really embarrassing in the Warriors.

Leaving is definitely a better choice for the two of them.

I noticed it all.

Mr. Jerry West must have noticed it too, right?
"Forcibly retaining them may deliberately drop the chain at the critical moment of our championship."

Jerry West's words stunned the Warriors general manager Miles next to him.

"I've seen this kind of thing a lot."

Jerry West smiled.

Harris Barnes has great potential. Losing such a player is naturally very tangled.

But Jerry West is very firm and even firm.

"We have seen the hope of the championship, and now I hope that our entire team is united, and Harris and Bogut are now inconsistent with the team's goals, and the team's success cannot bring them benefits. Maybe at some point, demons will take over their heads, and we need to take that into account."

Hearing Jerry West's consideration and what he said so seriously, Miles was really stunned.

Mr. Jerry, are you sure you are human?
You have already reached the realm of gods, right?
Can such a thing be imagined? !
A day after the world-shattering three-team trade between the Boston Celtics and the Clippers Pelicans was completed, the championship favorite Golden State Warriors and Timberwolves also shocked the entire league.

Harris and Bogut trade Love.

The Warriors traded the future for the present!
Yi Jianlian, Love, Curry, Iguodala, Klay, Dreaming Green...

"My God! Next season's NBA Finals will be Boston Celtics vs. Golden State Warriors!!!"

When the Boston Celtics went crazy, everyone actually predicted that the Lakers and Celtics would start an arms race.

But what people never expected is that the Lakers, as the defending champions, are so quiet!
After the draft, in addition to signing with rookies, not only did they not sign, but they kept sending them away.

The Pacers' four elders returned to the Pacers.

Olajuwon also announced his retirement again.

And Roy, one of the most powerful players of the Lakers last season, announced that he would terminate his contract with the Lakers and suspend the game indefinitely to make a movie!
"Fake!"

After seeing this trade between the Warriors and Timberwolves, Lakers fans were dumbfounded.

Now don't worry about the Celtics, now the Lakers can't even get past the Warriors!
The direct impact of this is that the Clippers coach Doug Rivers suffered less impact.

Well, now the main players spraying Rivers have become Warriors fans.

Yes, now on the Internet, the main force of spraying with Celtics fans has become Warriors fans.

And Lakers fans...

Of course it's Hu Yong's family!
"Coach D really didn't move?"

"Bobo, our people haven't heard any rumors."

"It seems that Coach D is indeed giving up next season, and it's useless even if Coach D wants to make a move. The Lakers have no room at all. The Lakers just renewed a 3-year 6400 million 2+1 contract with Yao Ming. , plus Kobe’s contract and McGrady’s contract, the contract of these three people exceeds 6000 million, unless the Lakers clear one or two of Kobe’s, McGrady’s and Yao Ming’s contracts, otherwise there is no room for maneuver.”

Popovich nodded.

It's really difficult for the Lakers now.

The difficulty of the Lakers did not start this year. In fact, in the past two years, the Lakers were so difficult and it was difficult to reinforce. Coach D just relied on a bunch of retired veterans and a group of young people to take these old, weak, sick and disabled. a champion.

You can't accept it.

Next season, the potential of this Lakers team is finally exhausted.

In fact, he is very aware of this dilemma.

The Spurs have also filled cap space after signing Gasol last year.

Without trading core players, it is impossible to operate on a large scale.

"What about Kawhi's early contract extension?"

"Kawhi didn't speak, but his uncle rejected the Spurs' early contract extension."

"why?"

Popovich was stunned.

"Kawhi's uncle said he wouldn't re-sign early without a max salary."

Maximum salary?

5 million in 9500 years?
No wonder Popovich was surprised, because Duncan never got such a top salary in the Spurs!
How dare Kawhi do that?

But soon, Popovich came back to his senses.

"Continue to talk, Kawhi is a good boy, there are bad people who make trouble, you talk directly to Kawhi himself."

"Bobo, we couldn't find Kawhi during the offseason. Kawhi disappeared during the offseason."

"..."

Popovich was speechless.

And Goose City on the other side.

As the favorites to win the championship next season.

Goose City is also quiet now.

"Kevin, why didn't you lobby for free agents this offseason?"

"It doesn't make sense."

Durant shook his head with a wry smile.

"The team said that the Thunder have no money, will not pay the luxury tax, and the team is strong enough."

The team unexpectedly got Randall in the draft this season.

This is indeed one of the reinforcements.

but.

No matter how talented Randall is, it will take time to be useful in the playoffs or even in strong dialogues.

time...

By then, Russell and I will be in our 30s. Does it still make sense?

By then Vince will have retired, does that still make sense?
Durant was disappointed.

He and his teammates are doing everything for the team, and both he and Ibaka were injured last season.

But the team did not go all out, but muddled along.

As the NBA's two consecutive MVPs, he did not win the championship, and the pressure on him will increase.

He was in a hurry.

But it didn't work.

Because of the quietness of the Lakers, Spurs and Thunder, this NBA offseason has become a double spring for the Celtics and Warriors.

The two teams have now soared directly to the first and second positions in the odds of winning next season.

Fans of both teams went crazy online.

On the other side, general manager Danny Ainge, who was crazily praised by Celtics fans this offseason, is not in Boston now.

Danny Ainge brought James and Paul to Memphis.

"Chris!"

"Danny!"

Grizzlies general manager Chris Wallace and Danny Ainge embrace in Memphis.

Chris Wallace, now the general manager of the Grizzlies, is also the general manager of the former Celtics, Paul Pierce's Bole.

Danny Ainge took the Celtics and replaced him.

Chris Wallace spent 10 years with the Celtics.

Seeing Chris Wallace and Danny Ainge like this, James and Paul behind them looked at each other in blank dismay.

This is the foundation of a wealthy family!
Why Danny Angie is so so so-called desire, he is really not afraid that no one will do business with him.

The Celtics, like the Lakers, have too much of their background in the entire league.

When James thought of this, he quickly thought of Danny Green when he was in the Cavaliers.

Many people are criticizing him for rookies now, and Danny Green is one of the examples.

But at the beginning, he was really not that familiar with Danny Green, and the team didn't wait for him to get acquainted with Danny Green, so he cut Danny Green, and was picked up by the Spurs.

Are you saying that this matter is not tricky?

James didn't believe it himself.

"Danny, you need to talk to him about Zach himself. I can't help you. We respect Zac very much. We welcome him with both hands when he leaves. We will send a contract immediately if he stays."

Randolph's current contract has expired.

With Randolph's feelings for the Grizzlies, he is definitely willing to renew his contract.

But the Lakers won the championship again deeply stimulated him.

I won't talk about the grievances between the Lakers and the Grizzlies in the past two seasons.

That's pretty big.

Randolph often sprays the Lakers in the media, but every time he is ridiculed, the reporters laugh, and the Lakers fans also laugh.

You are a failure, what right do you have to laugh at Coach D and his Lakers?
Oh, you didn't laugh at Coach D, but you two bears were caught by Howard with one hand without attacking.

This made Randolph very unbearable.

Randolph wanted a championship.

However, in this Grizzlies, Randolph knows that it is not so easy to win the championship, it is very difficult.

The Grizzlies are still working hard to win the championship.

But this offseason Prince left.

Gasol is still young, and they still have opportunities in the future.

But he is getting older, and his chances are almost gone.

Now he still wants to fight hard when he has the fighting power.

"Zach, I don't want to say anything more. The current Celtics are your perfect team. What a great achievement it is to lift the NBA championship at Staples?"

Danny Ainge's words surprised Randolph.

In terms of the strength of the Lakers next season, do they dream of going to the Finals?

Even if coach D is a god, the god of coaches, it's useless, right?
However, it is clear that Danny Ainge's statement is a very good step.

Raise the championship trophy at Staples!
This really got him excited.

Randolph looked at Danny Ainge, then at James and Paul behind him.

Finally nodded.

"Pleasant to work with."

2014年7月15号，扎克兰多夫和灰熊达成了一份3年3500万的合同，同时，凯尔特人和考特尼李达成了一份3年1500万的合同和乔丹克劳福德达成一份3年900万的合同。

The Celtics sent Sullinger, Courtney Lee and Jordan Crawford to the Grizzlies for Zach Randolph, the big black bear of the Grizzlies.

After the Celtics deal was completed.

The entire league was once again shocked.

Grizzlies fans are sending an emotional farewell to the Big Black Bear.

Hope Randolph can have a perfect career with the Celtics.

At the same time, the Warriors fans were crazily scolding the Celtics for being shameless.

Nima's promised Big Three?

This is already the Big Four!

In this deal between the Celtics and the Grizzlies, the Warriors stopped scolding and robbing.

If it weren't for the Celtics not being able to sign Randolph naked, there is actually no need to sign and then trade with the Grizzlies.

The Celtics and the Grizzlies first signed and then traded, sending three players who averaged double figures per game last season to the Grizzlies, including a young man with potential like Sullinger, who can be traded to the lottery or even the former A young player with five draft picks, the Grizzlies are actually earning blood.

Randolph's departure gave the Grizzlies a potential player like Sullinger who could replace him, and Jordan Crawford and Courtney Lee who could be the sixth and seventh men. players.

Therefore, for the departure of the big black bear, the Grizzlies fans will be so blessed.

It is indeed too affectionate and righteous.

Even if he can leave freely, he has left such high-quality assets for the team.

In the deal with the Grizzlies, Danny Ainge didn't have a problem, mainly because he didn't dare. Although Chris Wallace is a Celtic, he is not a direct descendant, and Danny Ainge took his place. Neither the Hults nor Chris Wallace would do business with Danny Ainge.

Even if it is the Celtics, Chris Wallace probably hates the Celtics more than he loves them.

In 2008, the Grizzlies sent Gasol to the Lakers to pit the Celtics, and Chris Wallace's role in it was not so glorious.

In order to pit Danny Angie, Chris Wallace can put his hatred for Angie above his love for the Celtics.

So if Danny Angie doesn't have some blood, Chris Wallace may play the emotional card against the big black bear and force Randolph to stay.

it's good now.

The Celtics got it now.

The Grizzlies got the future.

All are happy.

After getting the Grizzlies, the Celtics are not F3, but F4!

Thick eyebrows, Randolph, James, Paul!
This shit has already exploded!
Therefore, the Warriors, whose odds of winning the championship just rushed to the first place because of getting Love, immediately fell to the second place.

Celtics fans have gone crazy online.

And fans who are as crazy as Celtics fans are James fans.

James fans are really crazy right now.

After the finals, they didn't dare to show their faces.

That's horrible!
But now, after the Celtics have become so strong, they can finally come out again.

It's just that there are not enough fans of James now.

So the main battlefield is where the Celtics fans and Hu Yong's coalition forces are.

James fans just divide the battlefield.

LeBron James fans are laning wildly against Cavaliers fans.

"See, that's why LeBron came to the Celtics!"

"LeBron returns to the Cavaliers, can you equip LeBron with so many such good ministers?"

"Back to the Cavaliers, LeBron will never win a championship!"

"The Cleveland Cavaliers are simply not a place to win a championship!"

"Hold your great emperor and dream! Hahahaha, our LeBron is going to be the real king!"

After James teased the Cavaliers, Cavaliers fans were chasing James fiercely. At that time, James was still being sprayed with blood by the whole world, and James fans dared not come out.

Now, James fans have finally come out. If you don't spray the Cavaliers fans into autism, it will definitely not be finished.

Faced with such disgusting spraying by James fans, Cavaliers fans are of course very upset.

So they are urging the Cavaliers to strengthen.

After getting Oden, the Cavaliers are not weak, even second only to the Celtics and Pacers in the East.

Oden, Owen, TT, Waiters.

They are all young and have a promising future, but Cavaliers fans must also hope to have the present.

At least not to mention defeating the Celtics, it's okay to fight the Celtics, right?

If the Celtics meet and get swept in the playoffs, will it be ugly?
In fact, the Cavaliers are indeed strengthening.

The fans are not urging, they are also thinking about strengthening.

After all, the Cavaliers management wants to prove that it was a mistake for James to play Cleveland more than the fans. The Cavaliers are definitely not James' urinal!
After Randolph went to the Celtics, the Cavaliers finally stopped covering their parallel import champion Bennett.

The Cavaliers sent Bennett to the Timberwolves in exchange for Timberwolves guard Kevin Martin.

At the same time, Griffin, general manager of the Cavaliers, brought Oden to Philadelphia in person.

Try to persuade Lowry to join here.

The contract between Lowry and the Raptors expired. Last season, he and DeRozan led the Raptors to the playoffs with a third record, and then a round trip.

Lowry wants to prove himself in the playoffs.

Staying in the Raptors and continuing to struggle with DeRozan is an opportunity.

Going to the Cavaliers to contract with Oden Irving is also an opportunity.

And the Cavaliers can be said to be old friends with Lowry.

In the summer of 2010, Lowry's rookie contract expired and Lowry became a restricted free agent. The Cavaliers offered him an invitation contract, and the Rockets chose to match this new four-year $4 million contract.

At that time, the Cavaliers' contract was really high, and Lowry was not worth the price at all.

He was Aaron Brooks' backup.

The Rockets matched this contract and signed this contract with Lowry, which directly caused Lowry to compete better than Brooks.

At that time, Brooks and Lowry were both young and had very different styles. The Rockets wanted to try both, and didn't want to give an answer so quickly.

Now that Lowry has signed such a big contract, Lowry can't be allowed to play as a substitute. In the end, Aaron Brooks became a substitute. Then Brooks didn't want to play as a substitute, so the Rockets traded Brooks.

Since then, Lowry has grown up slowly, not to mention taking off, and now he has grown into a small wrist.

It can be said that the Cavaliers are the nobles of Lowry.

Of course Lowry knew this too.

Of course, more importantly, the Cavaliers really need him, and it is indeed a very good place to go.

"Kerry, I want you to pass the ball for me like you passed the ball for Yao, and we will be the best partners."

Seeing the serious expression on Auden's face at this moment, Lowry froze for a moment.

"In the Cavaliers, I promise, you and Kyrie are the ones who control the ball. I am willing to pick and roll, cover and defend for you. I will make you play more easily and comfortably."

Oden's reputation in the league is now very high.

That is the fierce man who single-handedly blocked the impact of the Thunder's duo in the playoffs, and the future No. [-] center in the NBA.

Such a player can say such things, what else can Lowry say?

"I would like to join the Cavaliers."

After the Cavaliers got Kevin Martin, they immediately signed Lowry from the free market for 4 million in 4800 years. After the Celtics and Warriors for a while, the Cavaliers also started their own screen tour.

And the Cavaliers' action isn't over yet.

After the Cavaliers got Lowry, they officially put Waiters on the shelf.

Waiters and Irving were going to fight in order to compete for the leadership position of the Cavaliers.

Now that Irving has won the competition and Lowry is here, Waiters can only play as a substitute in the team.

It's no wonder that Waiters' personality can be used as Owen's substitute.

So Waiters must be traded.

Waiters averaged 16 points per game last season and is 23 years old. He has excellent singles skills, excellent scoring ability, and he is also good at defending seriously.

If Waiters is willing to play as a sixth man on the bench for the Cavaliers, the Cavaliers are actually willing to keep Waiters.

But this is obviously impossible.

The Thunder want Waiters, and the Cavaliers want Randle.

This is definitely impossible.

Although the transaction value of the two is similar, it is impossible for the Thunder to send Randall out. This is an excellent child labor contract for four years. Even if they send Ibaka, they will not send Randall.

"Fak, you don't really want to send Ibaka out?!"

Griffin, the general manager of the Cavaliers, was stunned.

Could the Thunder be crazy? !

Have any of you played like this?

Have you ever thought about the feelings of Durant and Westbrook Carter?
Is there anyone who bullies the core stars of the team?
Aren't you afraid that Durant and Westbrook Carter will explode?

Griffin is really crazy!

And on the other side.

Boston.

"Danny, the Cavaliers seem to be in the limelight recently? Are you not worried at all?"

Danny Angie did not answer directly.

Instead, he smiled and said another thing.

"Tell Paul and KG that the current Celtics don't need them to come back to cruise."

"..."

Danny Ainge's assistant was stunned.

This is Pierce and Garnett.

They don't even want to come back for a cruise with a basic salary?
Danny Ainge and Pierce have a feud.

And Pierce and James had a feud.

As for KG, he has to be a leader wherever he goes. James and Paul can't tolerate them.

"Paul, we were rejected."

Pierce and Garnett looked very ugly.

It never occurred to them that in the last year of their careers, they would need to wander and have nowhere to go.

And right now.

Garnett's phone rang.

Garnett was shocked.
