Bulldozer of the NBA’s Restricted Area

The game against the Rockets is over, and Li Shengli's personal data has never been able to get back on track.

As for the post-game interview... Johnson was of course unable to attend. His face was blown up by a big punch from Li Shengli. Although there were no major problems after the examination, his nose was bruised and his face was swollen and he couldn't see anyone. Of course, Li Shengli didn't either. Attend.

As for Alan, although he was able to achieve this situation against the Rockets, it can be said that even though he lost, he was honored, but when he thought about the upcoming trade deadline, he was not very interested, and he led Curry and others to perfunctory routine. with reporters.

Insignificant issues were dealt with casually, but when it came to sensitive transactional issues, it was easy to muddle through. If reporters tried to get to the bottom of the matter, they would just reply that they had no comment. In fact... they really had no comment.

…

Time flew by.

The Rockets are playing on the 23rd, the 24th is free, and today the 25th is the league's trade deadline.

In the past two days, Li Shengli went to the team to report on the training as a routine. It couldn't be said that he was like a monk reciting a sutra for a day, but he couldn't relax about training. After all... If you want to have a full meal these days, it's okay if you don't have any skills. It doesn’t make sense, even people begging on the street need to have some talent and sing songs, but as a professional player, behind every dazzling data is every drop of sweat in training.

Therefore, regardless of the ups and downs outside, Li Shengli believes that doing his job well is the key to his standing and maintaining competition.

Training on the 24th was business as usual.

Johnson is not here, and the team has not officially issued a trade notice, so Li Shengli is still a player of the Hornets. Curry and Bogues are always with him. As for Gominski, who has no intention of training... he is hiding in a dark place. In the corner, he was cursing Curry and Bogues for cheating him yesterday.

By the afternoon of the 25th, the long-awaited transaction notification had not yet been issued.

I don't know what other teams are like, but the atmosphere within the Hornets has reached a very strange level. It seems that everyone has no intention of training and is just waiting for the final results, and this emotion quickly affected Li Shengli.

…

Taking advantage of the training break, Li Shengli sat on the side of the training court with Curry and Bogues. Although there was no fluctuation on the surface, Li Shengli was very anxious in his heart. After all, it was about whether he would stay or leave, so it was really nonsense to say that he didn't care about his heart.

"Boggs, Curry, do you have any news?" Li Shengli asked. As a PHS player for the Hornets, Boggs's gossip is still very accurate, and Curry is an old man of the team and works with the management. Talk.

"Seriously, Lee, you are the focus of the entire league today, even more powerful than the last time you beat the Pistons!" Bogues sighed. The Hornets' training is still unremarkable, but today's NBA league But it's all turbulent... focusing on the Eastern Hornets.

"What nonsense, say something useful!"

"Is this how you treat me?" Boggs was very dissatisfied with Li Shengli's 'bad' attitude, but still replied: "I don't have any accurate information here, but I know... there are several teams outside who want to you!"

"Ignore the outside world, Curry, is there any news from our Hornets' management?" Li Shengli asked again. He didn't want to care about the outside news. What he really cared about was the movements of his own team, and Curry had already agreed to help him find out about this.

"How could there be no movement? The movement was so loud!" Curry lay on the floor and looked up at the dome of the training hall. "I just beat you up about Johnson. The coach had an argument with the management most of the night before yesterday. , and the management means to send one away no matter what!"

"What about the coach?" After playing with the Rockets, Li Shengli had not seen Alan a few times.

"How do I know? I'm probably trying to fight with the management to keep you, but to be honest, it's good if you leave. Although I don't want to admit it, the Hornets... really have no future!"

"It's not up to you to decide whether to stay or not. You have to make some moves if you want, but since it's a trade, you have to wait for the price and choose a plan that benefits the team the most. Both you and Johnson may be sent away. It just depends on which company offers a price that is suitable for our team!”

Li Shengli nodded. In fact, this matter is not complicated. What is really complicated is his mood. It is the first time he faces a transaction problem. If he is really being traded, he always feels... weird, like voluntarily resigning and being passive. Same as being fired.

"Let's go, go back to bed!" Li Shengli stood up and waved his hands, and Li Shengli stopped thinking about these things.

"This feels so bad, I need to go back and get some sleep!"

"Then I won't stay any longer. Let's go together!"

Li Shengli walked in front, Curry and Burgess followed. The three brothers left early together, but... going back to bed in the middle of the afternoon was a bit unreasonable, so Curry and Bogues teamed up to Li Shengli's residence to spend a depressing afternoon together.

…

During this period, Li Shengli's phone kept ringing.

Thompson and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar naturally inquired about the transaction. They couldn't hide their excitement when they thought that Li Shengli might leave the Hornets, and the teams interested in taking over were all much better than the Hornets. This meant that Li Shengli's career would not be in vain. Spend three years with the Hornets.

As Sven Turner's agent, he doesn't have many ideas. After all, it's not a contract negotiation. Li Shengli's rookie contract is strangled, and his commission will not change. However, in line with professional ethics, he must understand the situation in advance and prepare for it. Li Shengli dealt with the aftermath.

In addition to these, friends in several circles also called and expressed concern one by one, including O'Neal, who had originally clamored with Pippen to beat up Li Shengli and the Hornets.

Didi didi!

The phone rang again. Li Shengli looked at the call with a serious face. Curry and Bogues on the side also smelled something unusual, because the call was from coach Alan, who had been mediating with the Hornets management. This call was probably from him. Telephone call notifying final results.

One minute later.

After hanging up the phone, there was no sign of any fluctuation on Li Shengli's face, while Curry and Burgess were as anxious as ants on a hot pot...

"What did you say?"

"The deal is set!"

Li Shengli replied, and Curry and Burgess immediately became excited. Although Li Shengli's departure or stay had little to do with them, after half a year of getting along, it would feel a little weird if the little brother they had been getting along with day and night suddenly disappeared. of.

"Did the coach say who it was?"

"it's me!"

"Where to go?"

"Sir!"

Ding!

Curry was greatly relieved, but Boggs... suddenly felt nervous because he thought of something strange.

"Wait a minute, Li, tell me... what date will they notify you of the report?"

"Before the end of the month!"

"Curry, tell me our game schedule on the 1st!"

"Playing the Jazz away from home!"

…

What the hell?

For a moment, the three brothers were stunned.

Li Shengli was traded to the Jazz, and played against his old team, the Hornets, in his first game. This... was a bit too much. And Curry and Bogues watched Li Shengli change from a teammate to an opponent in an instant. This drastic change in identity was really frustrating. People can't turn corners.

Oh my god?

Li Shengli and Karl Malone inside combination? !

Curry and Bogues broke out in a cold sweat, feeling that...Li Shengli would be the misfortune that Larry Johnson would never be able to avoid in his life.
