[I wish everyone a happy May Day!Today's first update, book friends, don't be stingy with your recommendations and collections! 】

When Lin Xiaofeng and Brandon Jennings were training in Las Vegas, in a bar in Minnesota, Lin Xiaofeng's agent, the league's second-ranked franchise player, David Falk, and the general manager of the Timberwolves David Kahn conducted a consultation.

After picking up the coffee cup on the exquisite small table and stirring it with a small spoon, David Falk said while enjoying the metal music in the coffee shop while drinking the fragrant coffee. : "Kan, you and I are both shrewd businessmen, so I hope our conversation will not be as hypocritical as those bosses, I like direct people."

"Me too." David Kahn smiled at Falk.

"You should be aware of the current situation in the league. The New York Knicks have formed a team that can sweep the league. Immediately afterwards, the Orlando Magic also formed an All-Star starting lineup. Plus the Philadelphia 76ers, Indiana Pacers, Atlanta Hawks, Celtics, Cleveland and other tyrannical powers, the entire East has risen. It can even be said that the strength of the East is far higher than that of the West. If the Timberwolves want to win the championship, they should focus on the East rather than the West. After many years of struggle After the West is strong and the East is weak, the overall strength of the West has begun to decline. As one superstar after another travels east, the balance of strength between the West and the East has tilted. It can be said that it is not a problem for the Timberwolves to sweep the West with the current lineup. The only thing in the West that can cause trouble for the Timberwolves is the Los Angeles Lakers. After the exchange for Rudy Gay, their strength has improved to a higher level. With Oden as a potential stock, the strength of the Los Angeles Lakers has increased a lot. Except for the Lakers, I can tell you that even the defending champion Suns will never be an opponent of the Timberwolves. In the entire West, there is no team other than the Lakers that can compete with the Timberwolves. The east is strong and the west is weak. It has become an indisputable fact. Teams such as the Los Angeles Clippers and Oklahoma City Thunder still need time, and the veteran powerhouses Spurs and Jazz have begun to decline." Falk said.

"Old friend, don't go around the bush and speak your mind!" David Kahn said after a moment of thought.

"The Timberwolves want to win the championship, this is a must! But we can't rush for quick success, now the Timberwolves lineup is very good, I don't think we need to introduce superstars! Players such as Peter York and Gallinari still need to grow. Instead of gambling In exchange for superstars, it is better to train these players well. Pippen is not a superstar as soon as he enters the league. Lin Xiaofeng needs a Pippen, and I think Danilo Gallinari has the potential to become Pippen. Kevin Love's rapid growth has allowed him to take over the banner of Rodman. The super rebounding king has already propped up a piece of sky inside the Timberwolves. I think the Timberwolves' youthful and potential approach last season is very good, and it is unnecessary To change." David Falk said meaningfully.

"It's safe to do that, but man, what are we going to do against the New York Knicks next season?" David Kahn asked.

"New York, Kahn. Do you think the Timberwolves can win a championship in a few years?" Falk asked.

"Within 3 years!" David Kahn said firmly.

"Let me recommend someone to you." Falk said after glancing at David Kahn.

"Who?"

"Warriors, Stephen Curry," Farke said.

"Who should I exchange for?"

"Caron Butler, the Warriors have enough salary space to accommodate Caron Butler, and Stephen Curry, he is a potential stock! His performance last season has proved that he has the potential to average 20+10+ per game , After he comes, Lin can mention the 2nd position, the firepower can be fully opened, Lin can be a lot easier on the offensive end." David Falk said.

"The Warriors won't agree, and old Nelson won't let him go!" David Kahn said with a smile.

"Yes, I can give you some inside information. The relationship between Monta Ellis and Stephen Curry is very tense. Both are guards who need the ball. Last season, Monta Ellis limited Stephen Curry's performance. ... Now the Warriors are considering whether to trade Monta Ellis or trade Steph Curry." Falk said.

"If it were me, I would definitely trade Monta Ellis. Stephen Curry is a potential stock. His upside is greater than Monta Ellis." David Kahn thought for a while and said.

"Yes, most people would think that. But the Golden State people don't! As long as you take out Caron Butler, there are two years of draft picks in 2012 and 2013, plus $600 million in cash (used to pay Butler salary), the Golden State people will definitely send Stephen Curry." David Falk said firmly.

"How do you know?" David Kahn asked.

"Because I know what the Golden State people want. They urgently need a solution to the coexistence problem of Stephen Curry and Monta Ellis. At this time, we will send them a solution, and they will not lose money. Although losing A potential star in the future. But Monta Ellis is only 25 years old after all. Since there is no harm, and he also got a swingman, he is still the kind of forward guard with good physical fitness and accurate shooting that old Nelson likes most. Swingers, why wouldn't the Warriors do it?" David Falk smirked.

"You're smart."

"You too."

In the bar, two men laughed.

On July 7, the league completed a big deal.

The Minnesota Timberwolves sent Caron Butler, $600 million, a 2012 first-round pick and a 2013 first-round pick.

In exchange for the potential stock of the Golden State Warriors, Stephen Curry!

After the transaction was completed, Stephen Curry called Lin Xiaofeng immediately.

"Khan, it seems that the three-year contract cannot be completed." Stephen Curry said on the other end of the phone.

"Haha, it's okay, you can be my teammate and help me win the championship." Lin Xiaofeng said.

"I will do my best." Stephen Curry smiled heartily.

However, there are happy ones and sad ones. The departure of Caron Butler made all the soldiers of the Timberwolves a little bit sad. This hearty guy has become an indispensable part of the Timberwolves.

"HI~~~, guys, don't be so sad, my contract will expire next season, if I have a chance then, I will definitely come back." Before boarding the plane to Golden State, Butler said to To see off his Jonny Flynn, Mesquite.Le Fu and the others laughed.

The Timberwolves deal has been completed. How will the departure of Butler and the arrival of Stephen Curry bring the Timberwolves?
