Reboot McGrady

Chapter 135 136 Playoff Lineup

Alexander hopped his feet angrily.

Last season, he agreed to a sign switch deal.The Eagles traded the Grizzlies' first-round pick, plus second-round pick Terrence Morris, in exchange for their first-round pick this year.

The Grizzlies lived up to expectations, and the record was indeed uglier than Mosaic.Originally thought that the Grizzlies could win the No. [-] pick, and they would still be happy.

Unexpectedly, it was Mosaic who got the No. [-] pick, and the Grizzlies only got the fourth pick in the first round.

"Damn it, it's a big loss on this deal." Alexander yelled in the office, feeling that he had lost more than a billion yuan. "Behind Yao Ming, there is a huge Huaxia market."

He has already heard that Yao Ming, the hopeful star of China, may enter the NBA. If he participates in the draft, he will be the best candidate for the No. [-] pick.Not to mention the commercial value, in terms of strength, Yao Ming can beat Tyson Chandler in international competitions, and it is not a big problem to gain a foothold in the NBA.

Dawson looked at Billy Knight not far away, the dark guy was laughing triumphantly.

He received instructions from his boss, bit the bullet, and walked up to Billy Knight, "Hey, Knight, talk to you about a deal. How about we use any bargaining chip in exchange for the No. [-] pick? It can be Francis plus the fourth pick. , you can also match freely.”

"No way! This is a treasure that our boss must win." Billy Knight also received instructions to protect the previous contract for me.

"Business is business, Dawson, the contract has been signed, and we will act according to the contract."

Dawson knew that the opponent was determined, and it was impossible to give up the No. 10 lottery.Shaking his head helplessly, he asked again, "What if we add [-] future picks? The future No. [-] pick?"

"It's useless to have a hundred. We only need this one. Thanks to Francis, he is very lucky."

The No. [-] pick fell to the ground.It looks like it belongs to Mosaic, but it actually belongs to the Eagles.

Yao Ming got the news immediately, knowing that the Eagles won the No. [-] lottery.Determined, he clenched his fist quietly and waved it a few times, "Do you cooperate with McGrady? That player who can speak Chinese is awesome!"

He is looking forward to the cooperation with McGrady. Before that, the kindness released by McGrady made Yao Ming feel very warm.In particular, a few pointers helped him clear the obstacles to going to the NBA.

"Battelle is also in the Eagles, and there is a fellow from China." Although Yao Ming did not have a good impression of Battelle, he did not reject it.

He even plans to live in Atlanta with Battelle.

"Dad, Mom, pack your bags! Get ready to go to the United States to fight." Go to the United States to realize the Chinese dream.

Zhang Mingji's team also saw the live broadcast and celebrated wildly in the office.They had received news before that if they got the top pick in the first round, the Eagles would definitely choose Yao Ming, the No. [-] pick, and they would even choose Yao Ming.

In the end, the Bulls and Warriors with the worst record got the No. [-] pick and No. [-] pick respectively. The Grizzlies got the No. [-] pick, which has been traded to Mosaic.

Just starting to prepare for the playoffs, McGrady is in a good mood and feels better.

Everyone else, too, was in pretty good spirits.No one knows the effect of the No. [-] lottery, but the title of "No. [-]" always makes people excited.

"Wow, Ben, did you really change your hairstyle? What about the old ditches?" Jackson stared at Ben Wallace exaggeratedly, "Hey, you seem to have grown a lot taller."

Big Ben held his head up, with egg yolk shorts and fluffy hair, and said disdainfully, "I'm already this tall."

The big Ben of the ditches is not the perfect Ben-Wallace, the big Ben of the Afro is the ultimate version.

"I feel that this hairstyle makes me more powerful." Ben Wallace recently found a girlfriend named Chanda, who is a fashionista, and gave Wallace this new hairstyle.

McGrady walked in and glanced at Wallace, "This hairstyle will make you perform better."

"Haha, I think so too. Boss Mai really understands me." Ben Wallace's mental state is better.

Little did he know that the Hawks got the No. [-] pick, and he was the player most likely to be affected.

After training, Carlisle invited McGrady to the office.

"There are only 12 players on the list for the playoffs. What do you think of this list?" Carlisle handed out a piece of paper, on which was a roster of 15 players, and ticked "√" behind 12 of them.

This season, Chambers opened the purse strings, and the team paid millions in luxury taxes.Of course, Stern likes the Eagles' approach. After the luxury tax is paid, it won't be too conspicuous, and the record is also there. It's a win-win situation.

On the list, in addition to the five main players, Terry is naturally the most important substitute. He has attracted attention from all sides and is very likely to be awarded the title of "Best Sixth Man".

McGrady has become the "leading scorer". If they can give the team another honor, the Eagles will be considered a bumper year.

Inside, there are Ewing and Laettner, Turkoglu is also selected, and Ralph Alston, the last two candidates are Tyronn Lue and Battelle.

The others are really drinking fountains, and their names are quite long. McGrady didn't communicate with them much, keeping the mystery of the team leader.

This lineup is solid inside. Turkoglu can also play the power forward position. Alston and Tyronn Lue are of different types. Lue has played more games this season than last season. There are also 7 points, and he is striving to get a good contract next season.

Battelle did not expect that he would be selected for the playoffs.

McGrady is full of confidence in the playoffs. As long as the Eagles don't make mistakes, the teams in the East will have no problem.He knew that the lineup he made was basically the lineup of the Pistons in his previous life.

Of course, the former Pistons were all at their peak, and Billups, Ben and Rasheed still have room for improvement, but McGrady himself has become one of the signature players of the league.

With the addition of Laettner, Turkoglu, Terry and others, the strength of the team is actually stronger than the Pistons in 2004.

Only Maddie knows about this.

"Let's fight, first break through from the east, and then plan other things." McGrady looked out the window, Atlanta was full of energy, and a strong eagle flew through the sky.

Joining this year can't get results, and Yao Ming will join next year, and his strength will rise to a higher level by then, and he will definitely be able to challenge the Lakers' hegemony.

As soon as he came out of Carlisle's office, Billy Knight came over in person and invited McGrady, "Mosaic has transferred the No. [-] pick to us. When the draft comes, which player we need, just call the name."

"Yao Ming! No need to say anything else." McGrady said straightforwardly, "Don't worry about Huaxia's problems, they have agreed to release Yao Ming, but there is no publicity report."

After communicating many times, the China Basketball Association and Shenghai Dongfang have let go and will not set up other obstacles. Yao Ming can participate in the draft.

However, the Eagles, or Tracy McGrady, has hand-picked Yao Ming as the "No. [-] pick."

Looking at Billy Knight, "By the way, Yao Ming is relatively thin and doesn't speak the language very well. Then you can arrange the logistics. Especially the trainer, so that he can adapt to NBA confrontation faster."

"No problem, I'll take care of it."
