Basketball's best forward and guard

Chapter 334 254 [Mark Cuban's ambition]

"Our inside line definitely needs to be strengthened. Although it is not necessarily a traditional inside line, rebounds must be guaranteed. Dirk will retire at the end of this season. Harris Barnes has a free option. DeAndre Jordan's contract expires. With the addition of Carmelo Anthony, our interior is facing a reorganization this summer."

Although Mark Cuban is usually busy with business, in fact, he knows the situation of the team very well.

"We feel that the team should not continue to keep DeAndre Jordan. Obviously, for DeAndre Jordan, he needs a bigger contract. We also call it a pension contract. From the perspective of salary space, We can afford it, but from the perspective of the future development of the team, it is not a wise choice."

Regarding the issue of DeAndre Jordan, Nelson and the others have actually considered it for a long time. It is undeniable that DeAndre Jordan has a very good ability on the defensive end, but to be honest, for a team that wants to build a dynasty, they It is impossible to always rely on the inside line to a big man who can only defend but not attack. This is not in line with the team's future at all.

"Little Nelson, compared to your proposal not to renew the contract with DeAndre Jordan, I care more about whether you have found a suitable replacement. You know, this is very important to us"

"Of course, we locked four targets, but it seems that the difficulty is not small"

Little Nelson smiled bitterly. The upcoming offseason is destined to be very busy and full of challenges for their management.

"I know we signed a four-year contract with Bayonet, and I know it's too early to discuss contract renewal, but I have to tell you that from now on, you must make renewal of Bayonet your top priority."

Perhaps this is the real purpose of Mark Cuban's interview with Nelson Jr. today.

For Mark Cuban, the bayonet is the real priceless treasure. It's crazy to see what he brought to the Dallas Mavericks. Mark Cuban thinks he is luckier than the owner of the Chicago Bulls back then.

So, in any case, Bayonet must stay with the Dallas Mavericks for a long time, and it would be even better if Bayonet stayed with the Dallas Mavericks for the rest of his career.

"The best way to keep the bayonet is to build a dynasty team. You know, for a player like him, wealth is just a number, and honor is what he wants most. So, it's back to the original point, as long as we show If you are determined to build a dynastic team, then Bayonet has no reason to leave.” Nelson Jr. has a well-thought-out plan, and he knows exactly what players like Bayonet are thinking.

"So, this is your business. I mean, building a dynasty team is all-round sublimation. We can't just rely on the introduction of star players. Although our draft picks are worthless and somewhat late, I hope you If you can use it, you know better than me how necessary it is for a team to keep fresh blood."

In fact, what Mark Cuban wants to say is that if Nelson and the others can learn from the draft, wouldn't he, the boss, save a lot of money.

May I ask which of the 30 NBA team owners doesn't want to make money?

"There is also the matter of Bayonet's participation in the Basketball World Cup held in China this year. Have you communicated with the Chinese Basketball Association? For Bayonet, this is obviously unfair. His body needs to rest"

Mark Cuban doesn't want his ace players to carry too many tasks and have physical or even injury problems.

He is not only the owner of the Bayonet, but also a fan of the Bayonet. He does not want his stadium idol to represent a team that has always been mediocre to gain some unwarranted national pride.

"Boss, in fact, we really can't do anything about this matter. It's not the Chinese Basketball Association that is forcing Bayonet to play on behalf of the country, but Bayonet himself is insisting. We have learned that Bayonet himself has always had a high sense of national honor."

Little Nelson spread his hands, he understood the tragedy of the "little giant" Yao Ming's career.

Therefore, it was he who proposed the idea of ​​not letting the bayonet represent the Chinese national team at the beginning.

However, after in-depth understanding, he found that Bayonet himself requested it, and the Chinese Basketball Association did not force him. For this reason, he personally communicated with Bayonet, hoping to persuade Bayonet to give up this idea, but Bayonet directly rejected it.

From this, he Jr. Nelson came to a conclusion that the Dallas Mavericks had no possibility of intervening in this matter.

"Won't you put pressure on the Chinese Basketball Association through public opinion? I don't believe that the Chinese Basketball Association didn't force the bayonet"

Mark Cuban's face is not very good.

"Boss, I think we'd better not do that, because the current situation is that Bayonet himself insists on playing for the Chinese men's basketball team, and countless Chinese fans hope that Bayonet will fight for the country. If the Chinese Basketball Association exerts pressure, I am afraid that it will end up with a counterproductive result, which is what the bayonet does not want us to do."

"Of course, when the bayonet represents the Chinese men's basketball team in the Men's Basketball World Cup, we can send a logistics team to protect the bayonet as much as possible."

"Well, sometimes, I really don't understand the national cohesion of the Chinese, but in fact, it's a very powerful thing"

Mark Cuban shook his head. Since this is the case, he will no longer insist.

"Fortunately, Luka Doncic's Slovenian men's basketball team did not qualify for the BJ Men's Basketball World Cup. Therefore, during this offseason, you must communicate with Rick Carlisle. Some auxiliary improvements, you know, Luka is a lad with great potential."

In Mark Cuban's heart, he actually trained Luka Doncic as Dirk Nowitzki's successor.

This is because both of them are from Europe and although they have different styles, they play similar games.

Luka Doncic's growth this season is obvious to all. If nothing else, he will get the best rookie of the season.

Therefore, in Mark Cuban's plan, he defined Luka Doncic as Scottie Pippen. He hoped that in the near future, Luka Doncic could become the right-hand man of the Bayonet and be able to become the solo player in Dallas. One of the cores of Xia Dynasty.

For this reason, he also knows that the team must work hard to help Luka Doncic grow.

"In fact, I have already communicated with Luka Doncic. Luka is a competitive young man. He has already made a plan for the upcoming offseason."
