Chapter 320: Taking action on draft day
It was decided to use Yang Shuai as the core, and the Warriors' senior management naturally built the team based on Yang Shuai. This destined some players to leave and some players to come in. Their first goal was the draft.
.
With the Warriors' No. 20 pick, it's not impossible to select good players, but it's still a bit difficult to select their favorite player, which determines that they have to go through some transactions.
Yang Shuai was never clear about the team's decisions and didn't have much feeling until Nelson called to tell him.
"Yang, have you ever thought about any of your teammates leaving this team this summer?"
After listening to Old Nelson's question, Yang Shuai was silent for a moment and then asked: "Coach, who are you talking about?"
"On draft day, if nothing else happens, Monta will leave the team." Old Nelson's voice came from the other end of the phone. Hearing this, Yang Shuai almost immediately remembered the relationship between himself and Monta Ellis.
relationship between.
The departure of Monta Ellis does have something to do with Yang Shuai. When Chris Mullin decided to trade, the first thing that came to mind was Monta Ellis.
As the team's general manager, it is impossible to say that he was not aware of the deterioration in the relationship between Yang Shuai and Ellis.
After Ellis came back, he was a little dissatisfied with Yang Shuai's status in the team. However, Old Nelson valued Yang Shuai's ability and room for improvement, so he valued Yang Shuai even more. So even though Ellis's performance is getting better and better
Okay, but Nelson has no intention of reestablishing Ellis as the core, and he doesn't even give Ellis a chance to enter the starting lineup.
Last season, Ellis made great progress, and the team indeed regarded him as the team's new hope, and even gave him a big contract this summer. If Yang Shuai had not appeared, when Ellis came back, because
With the departure of Baron Davis, he will be the savior of the team, and then naturally become the core of the team (Bing Shen Tianxia).
Ellis had always expected this, but things went as he wished. When Ellis came back, he found that what he had expected already belonged to someone else, and that person was Yang Shuai.
All this is doomed that Ellis cannot have a good impression of Yang Shuai, and this is exactly how he showed it. Although the two people can get along peacefully on the court through the mediation of Old Nelson, the relationship between the two
There are fundamental contradictions, which makes it difficult for them to achieve true peaceful coexistence.
Chris Mullin knew something about this. When he asked Nelson about it, Nelson also admitted that what Chris knew was the current situation within the Warriors.
When Nelson heard Chris Mullin mention the relationship between Ellis and Yang Shuai, he knew what he might be planning. Sure enough, it didn't take long for him to receive Chris Mullin's information about the team's trade this summer.
plan, and the first person among them was Ellis.
Mullin is different from Nelson. Nelson may still be thinking about how to mediate the relationship between Yang Shuai and Ellis, because one of them is someone he values very much now, and the other is someone he once wanted to cultivate.
The core. For Mullin, whoever is beneficial to the team is the person he values.
In Mullin's eyes, Yang Shuai is the core of the team and a person who can bring him great benefits, while Ellis may become a hidden danger that affects the team. Yang Shuai has only the last remaining contract with the Warriors.
One year, Mullin was preparing to renew his contract with Yang Shuai during the season. If this was affected by the presence of Ellis, Mullin would definitely regret it. In this case, when the team needs to change, he might as well give up this hidden danger.
Removed.
At this time, Yang Shuai did not realize that Ellis' departure was so directly related to himself. He just believed that the team needed to make some transactions to become stronger, and the positions between Jackson, Ellis and himself seemed
There is some overlap.
Regarding Ellis's departure, Yang Shuai didn't have much feeling. Yang Shuai was not prepared to comment on whether the other party should leave or stay, because the relationship between him and Ellis had always been lukewarm, but the old
Nielsen's words before passing the passage made Yang Shuai slightly stunned (read the full text of Ba Wangfeng).
"Yang, Monta's departure is just the beginning. The team is determined to reorganize with you as the core this season. Changes will not stop. Some people will come in again, and some people will definitely leave."
After hearing these words, Yang Shuai felt that he was in a mixed mood of joy and melancholy. Although Yang Shuai has always been very confident that he can become the absolute core of the team, in the second half of the season, Nelson's tactical arrangements were indeed
This was done. But it was the first time that it was said clearly like this today. It was impossible for Yang Shuai not to be excited.
But after getting along for a season, Yang Shuai has indeed established friendship with most of the players on this team. When he unexpectedly heard that someone on the team was leaving, he was inevitably a little reluctant to leave.
Fortunately, handsome guy Yang is not a coquettish person. He understands that there are transactions in the NBA every season. These transactions may be big or small, but one thing is that almost every team has people coming in and people leaving every season.
It is a norm and a need.
The day before the draft, the NBA had no games. All teams in the league were busy with trades or draft matters, and transactions began to unfold one after another. On this day, the Bucks sent Richard Jefferson from
The Spurs exchanged Bruce Bowen, Kurt Thomas and Fabricio Oberto, and the Bucks sent Fabricio Oberto and acquired Amir Johnson from the Pistons.
At the same time, the trade of draft picks also began to spread, and many teams were revealed to be actively looking to trade draft picks, and the Warriors were one of them.
Some media broke the news that the Warriors are actively seeking to trade high-ranking draft picks. They are actively in contact with teams that hold the top ten draft picks. This news has naturally spread to the country.
But most domestic fans have chosen to ignore such news. In the past few years, they have heard enough news about this. These news all come from the Houston Rockets. In their opinion, the Warriors must also be the same.
Just like a rocket, the thunder is loud but the rain is small (Test City 3 latest chapter).
Speaking of the Rockets and Warriors, the popularity of these two teams in China was almost the same last season, because Yang Shuai and Yao Ming were equally popular in China, but this situation is expected to change next season.
What has changed is that Yao Ming was injured and was out for the season, which means he will miss the entire 2009-10 season.
Without Yao Ming, the popularity of the Rockets can no longer be compared with that of the Warriors. Compared with Yao Ming's vague position in the Rockets, Yang Shuai has completely established his position as the leader of the Warriors, and naturally more attention is paid to the Warriors.
As soon as the draft day came, there was finally a trade regarding draft picks. The Timberwolves sent Randy Foye and Mike Miller to the Wizards in exchange for the No. 5 pick, Edon Thomas, and Darius San
Guerra and Oleksey Pecherov. The Mavericks traded the No. 22 pick to the Trail Blazers for the No. 24 pick, the No. 56 pick and a 2010 second-round pick.
The Warriors were not included in the first two trades involving draft picks that broke out, which made Warriors fans even more certain that the Warriors were unlikely to obtain higher-ranking draft picks. In the year of the draft, every team treats them as
This is an opportunity to replenish strength. If there are not excellent conditions, many teams will not be willing to change. Unless the Warriors can produce two or three good players like the Timberwolves, and other teams are willing to accept them.
The draft is getting closer and closer. Apart from these two transactions, there are no more trades regarding draft picks. Warriors fans have basically given up. They are starting to think about what kind of player the team will sign with the No. 20 pick.
players.
There was only an hour before the draft, and there were already many people sitting at the venue, including the rookies participating in this draft. At this time, both the draft venue and the outside world received a piece of news, a piece of news about the draft.
The Warriors finally made a move on the draft pick trade!
The Warriors sent Monta Ellis in exchange for the No. 4 pick from the Sacramento Kings. Because the Kings have enough salary space, they do not need to send players with a salary corresponding to Ellis, but the Warriors automatically get it.
Exception for a trade equal to Ellis' salary.
This trade immediately attracted the attention of many people as soon as it appeared. Some people speculated that one of Ellis and Jackson might leave the Warriors, but they did not expect to leave so quickly and in such a way (

Although Ellis played as a substitute last season, his performance during his comeback was not bad. He averaged close to 20 points per game, which shows his offensive firepower. In the previous season, he had already scored more than 20 points, two consecutive games.
His performance in this season is enough to prove that he indeed has good strength.
But such a player was directly sent to the Kings by the Warriors in exchange for a draft pick. Although this is a big year for the draft, some people still don't understand it.
Some people are against the Warriors, and some are against the King. They think it is unwise for the King to give an opportunity to get potential stocks to the Warriors for immediate benefits.
NBA transactions have always been in the eye of the beholder, and this transaction is no exception. Even Warriors fans do not accept it. After all, Ellis has performed quite well in the Warriors in the past few years. The team last year
Xia Tian had just offered him a big contract to keep him, and now he was traded away, which was a little hard for them to accept.
Many people at the draft were very concerned after hearing the news, especially the players who were predicted to be drafted in the lottery. The No. 4 pick the Warriors received might change their destiny.
Some Warriors players accepted it, while others were confused, but for Yang Shuai, who had been mentally prepared for a long time, he was not too impressed. However, he was surprised that the team had the courage to send Ellis directly in exchange for a draft pick.
After all, Ellis has proven himself, and selecting a rookie is full of unknowns. Many players who were talented before have lost themselves after entering the NBA. There are countless examples of this.
Whether you accept it or not, when this exact news appears, it means that the matter is a foregone conclusion, and because of the sudden trade, many people began to pay attention to what kind of harvest the Warriors will have in the draft.
An hour passed in the blink of an eye, and NBA Commissioner David Stern began to walk onto the stage. The players who were about to enter the NBA began to get excited, because the time related to their future was coming soon.
