100% God Guard

But this matter can not just look at the book data, Hardaway is a top salary, and has been suffering from injuries and illnesses for many years, no one knows when this bomb will explode, plus he is a 32/33-year-old veteran, even if he is healthy, his peak is not a few years. The most important point is that his top salary is still three seasons away, so if he is injured again and can’t play at all, wouldn’t it be even worse? Having been occupied in salary space early, how can you trade other stars later?

Man, the lineup isn’t just about stacking stars to compete for championships. Of course, it’s not impossible, but this super giant can play and contribute to the team?

Why do you look at it now, you trade a guy who is recovering from injuries, you value fame, and use it to make money?

But how to say, the Knicks’ current outside defense is really not decent, except for this point, everything else is full of loopholes. Hardaway can reinforce this to a certain extent, especially at present, the No. 1 position on the top of the land, the second and third positions really need a guy like Hardaway.

Talk is better than nothing!

Marlon adhered to this line of thought and finally did not scold Thomas.

He’s still recovering from an injury, his comeback plans haven’t been clarified, and now that another injured man has been traded, Thomas has literally treated the team as a charity.

“So, Carl, what do you think now? When is the latest comeback? Seeing that Malone reluctantly approved the deal, Thomas stopped talking about the topic and asked about the other party’s comeback plan instead.

“Uh… I can only say that it is not clear, but there is an idea at the moment, Isaiah, I want to directly abandon the comeback plan for this season, focus on recuperation, and wait until next season to come back, you…”

When he said this, Malone was very unconfident, and this plan looked no different from the pit Knicks. Invited a big guy, actually can’t play all season, isn’t that what is the pit?

“Carl, don’t worry, the team is still on the regular road, you have to believe Lu, believe in Don, believe in the team.”

In fact, Thomas signed Malone and did not expect the other party to return to the court quickly, as the other party himself said, he thought that Malone could return to the playoffs, or stay for one more year. Forty-year-old veteran, injury issues need to be treated with caution.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have traded pennies for Hardaway.

Isn’t it that while valuing the reputation of the other party, it also tries to strengthen it? On All-Star Weekend, there aren’t many good players available, but many aren’t happy to move on to other teams midseasonally.

In short, no one is optimistic that the Knicks will win the championship this season.

As Malone and Thomas discussed personal issues, Riku felt for the first time the complexity of his teammates’ parting.

The NBA league has always been a business league, and it’s hard to ask the team to have any personal feelings, and when the team doesn’t think you need you, whether you’re a superstar or the core of the team, trade you when you say trade.

Lu Li really experienced the cruelty and coldness of the alliance’s business at this moment, looking at the teammates who were important in the team a moment ago, even if they were not friends, but they were usually nodding friends, and today he is going to say goodbye to the other party and usher in newer teammates.

Brutal is not cruel, you say?

At the beginning of the training, Lu Li’s whole mentality was in a state of irritability, but in the blink of an eye, he could only calm himself down as much as possible.

Since you want the team to strengthen, you must accept others to leave, this is the business experience of the league athletics, and it cannot be perfect. When the training was over, Riku was told by Don Cheney that the target of the deal was Penny Hardaway, and Riku was more complicated.

A veteran of the alliance who has been trapped by injuries for many years, even if he is brilliant before, no matter how popular he is, no matter how good his ability is, once there is a time bomb of injury, it will make people feel unreliable, and they are worried that the other party will relapse from old injuries anytime and anywhere.

He had been prepared before, Thomas would perform some brain-dead operations that did not satisfy him in trading operations, but when he finally came, he still couldn’t help but be a little angry.

For Hardaway, he is sympathetic, very sympathetic to the other party as a league supergiant, but due to injury, he has never reached the peak and failed to win the championship, Jordan’s successor is always the successor, can not be Jordan himself.

If the other party is not in the stage of recuperation now, but in a state of complete recovery, those hands praise Thomas. It’s just a pity, there are no ifs.

Hardaway’s frequent injuries are worthy of admiration and respect, but not desirable. Going into battle with an injury can sometimes only be considered a stupid fork and a future that consumes his career, so Lu Li is not optimistic about what Hardaway can help them, maybe one day he will have to watch him completely scrapped.

Seeing that Lu Li did not show a very happy look, Don Cheney asked with a smile: “How?” Not satisfied with the deal? Anfini is no better, better than Howard Eisley, Doriak and Charlie Ward are not able to help the team now, they can only send away, we need people in the back who can defend and contribute. ”

‘Anfini is a perennial injury-related player, he’s quite capable and the only person who can help the team at the moment, and we can only pray that his physical condition is not that bad.

Don Cheney’s relief played a little role, and Riku’s mood was slightly better, and he no longer thought it was a bad deal.

“Lu, the arrival of Anfini, in fact, can liberate you to a certain extent, do not need you to bear more things, sometimes concentrate on scoring and focusing on organization, it will be easier for you to grow.”

‘Anfini can help us in attack and defensively and free you up, you still need time to grow and don’t want you to take on too much responsibility and lead to injuries.

“You are the future of the team, our big baby, we can’t watch you become one of the geniuses ruined by injury.”

Well, you say so, I have nothing more to say!

Hearing Don Cheney praise himself so much and plan for his future so much, Lu Xue was very happy. He is not worried about the injury factor, his current self is known as the steel god, as long as the opponents in the league do not drive trucks to play, he will not worry too much about injuries.

But you can’t refuse people’s kindness, can’t you?

Lu Li happily accepted the coach’s enlightenment, and the two were like father and son, talking heart-to-heart on the sidelines, and the picture was extremely harmonious.
