Chapter 214 211: Basketball is really humane (4K please recommend)

"Dwyane Wade hit two free throws! God, he was like a god descending from heaven! These two solid free throws almost killed the Mavericks!

Devin Harris missed the final three-pointer! Winning, the Miami Heat regained another victory! 3 to 2, the Heat won three games in a row and got the match point. They defeated the Mavericks in overtime in the Battle of Tianwang Mountain!

Wade scored a terrifying 43 points in the Battle of Tianwangshan. This was the second time he scored 40+ points in the series!

As Pat Riley said, he is simply five centimeters shorter than Jordan!

He is the hero of Miami, he saved the Heat again! At the next game in Dallas, we may see a new champion born! "

On the TV, Mike Brin's voice was very loud. O'Neal swooped down, took Wade into his arms, and rubbed his head crazily.

Miami fans cheered loudly. Last season, they were beaten to the ground by Wayne.

But in Tianwangshan this season, their replacement Wei beat everyone else to the ground.

They are only one step away from the championship!

Wade and Shaq are just one step away from winning their first trophy as a team.

I don’t know what No. 8 in Los Angeles is thinking at this time.

Oh, by the way, he should wear the No. 24 jersey next season.

Kobe clenched his fists, very unwilling. Anyone can win the championship, but it must not be Shaq!

And why does it feel so strange to watch this game?

Wade's shooting percentage in this game was actually less than 40%. Naochi said, I also have the same hit rate.

but

Wade took 25 free throws today

Wade scored 21 of his 43 points on free throws alone.

Kobe felt very sad that the current league still takes too much care of young defenders.

I think back then we had to have this kind of treatment, and what happened to Shaq?

Kobe shook his head and turned off the TV. Hopefully in the last two games in Dallas, the Germans and the guy who likes to wear three pairs of socks to play can give some strength.

At the same time, in another part of Los Angeles, in a small villa next to Manhattan Beach.

Although the scene on the TV was very lively, the two people lying on the sofa at this time were not paying attention to the TV at all.

"Wei, will you come to Los Angeles to play next season?" Sharapova leaned on Wayne, with a smile on her face.

"I don't know yet, if I go to Los Angeles." Wayne suddenly felt a chill running down his spine, fearing that he might not be able to sleep well every day.

Challenging Sharapova to the limit at night, and challenging Kobe Bryant to the limit in the early morning, I'm afraid this is not about retiring early.

"It's good to come to Los Angeles, so we don't have to be separated all the time." Of course Sharapova didn't think much of it. She just wanted to keep Wayne by her side.

Now it is estimated that besides Weipin Bryant, Sharapova, a "Denver female fan", most wants Wayne to play in Los Angeles.

Director Zhang is now looking forward to Wayne joining the Lakers every day, so that he can be fair and honest when commentating on the Lakers.

Although the Lakers don't seem to have enough chips,

What the Lakers are best at is robbing trades and signings!

Rumors about Wayne's trade have been around for quite some time, and his whereabouts with Ben and Yao Ming have become the most topical news this summer.

That's right, Yao Ming has not renewed his contract with Mosaic in advance like the original history.

But unfortunately, Yao Ming only played 57 games this season due to injury, and Mosaic didn't even make the playoffs, which is very embarrassing.

In the previous three seasons, Yao Ming played 82, 82 and 80 games respectively, and his attendance rate was very high.

No one thought that he and Tracy would be so stubborn this season, even if they were reimbursed for the season, they would stay together and fly together.

Yao Ming did not renew his contract in advance. What he was most afraid of was getting injured in the contract year, and he was afraid of the consequences.

Therefore, this also makes Yao Ming's contract renewal confusing.

If Yao Ming renews his contract now, the salary required will be about 14 million more than if he renewed his contract in advance. At that time, many teams will offer Yao Ming a maximum salary contract and watch the mosaic match.

Alexander said he was really Alexander.

The mismatch is a pity and blinds the Chinese market.

Match it, it’s so painful.

Tracy McGrady's salary next season will reach 16.9 million. If Yao Ming is renewed, it will be another 15 to 16 million more.

When Yao Ming was still under a child labor contract, Mosaic couldn't afford to pay for reinforcements.

It's not painful to keep two maximum salaries now.

Moreover, Alexander would not have the courage to spend so much money to raise two sick patients.

In addition to Yao Ming, Ben, who has had conflicts with the management, is also a favorite of many teams.

Several teams have already offered him a maximum salary or a price close to the maximum salary.

The Pistons are really at a loss now, because Ben is a completely free man and can go wherever he likes, and the Pistons are not even qualified to match.

Of course, apart from the conflicts with the management, the biggest dispute between Ben and the Pistons is actually about money.

Ben wants a maximum salary, or close to the maximum salary, which is probably between 50 million and 60 million in four years.

The Pistons are only willing to give Ben 48 million for four years.

I was like, "Are you trying to underestimate my height?"

If I add an afro, I won't be short if I play center, right?

So, it’s all business.

Where are the heroes who won the championship and are not for sale?

In Wayne's previous life, the Lakers almost traded Kobe Bryant in 2007.

At that time, the deal between the Lakers and Bulls was actually just one step away from being completed.

The Lakers are willing to let Kobe go, and the Bulls are willing to empty out his body.

The only ambiguity between the two sides at the time was: the Lakers wanted Luol Deng, and Kobe believed that Luol Deng must stay in Chicago for the Bulls to be competitive, otherwise he might as well stay with the Lakers.

In this way, the two sides started a tug of war and remained in a stalemate for a long time.

In the end, if it hadn't been for the Lakers' timely robbery, which stabilized Kobe's heart, Los Angeles might not have had this wonderful story of one man, one city.

Speaking of which, the deal in which the Grizzlies sent Gasol was magical enough.

The first All-Star in team history, the only star who could do anything, was given away for almost nothing.

When the Grizzlies were looking for chips, they even hesitated for a long time between Sun Yue and Xiaojia. This was probably the biggest trade rumor that Sun Dasheng had ever been involved in in his life.

Magical transactions abound in reality.

And these magic transactions all have one thing in common - the players are at odds with the management and want to leave.

A melon that is twisted is not sweet. There are few players who can twist a bitter melon into a sweet melon like the Lakers.

Instead of spending money on both sides, most teams will choose to trade things as soon as possible.

Things like not for sale exist only in beautiful imaginations.

Many wonderful stories about one person and one city may actually be just a coincidence.

So Wayne braced himself.

It was no surprise that he was sent anywhere, always waiting for a call from Schwartz.

Schwartz has been crazy busy these days because he is running around crazily about the Wayne trade.

The transaction is supposed to be between the two teams, and Wayne does not have the right to veto the transaction.

But Schwartz is not the kind of person who will sit still and wait for death. Even in absolute passivity, he will try to find a trace of initiative.

Anyway, now Wayne is worried when he sees Walsh, and Walsh is annoyed when he sees Wayne, so it is better to break up as soon as possible.

Being unable to win, complete tasks, or earn points is also a limitation on Wayne's improvement in strength.

At the same time, somewhere in Portland, a gentle man with glasses and gray hair opened the door and walked into a luxuriously decorated room.

Inside, two middle-aged men, also in suits and ties, but younger, have been waiting for a long time.

"Paul, you're finally here. Did the journey go well?"

"Well, it went very well, Steve. How are you adapting to your new position, Kevin?" The old man wearing glasses hugged and greeted his two men.

"Very good, Steve is a very good teacher." The man named Kevin, Kevin Pritchard, had just been promoted to the deputy general manager of the Trail Blazers.

This guy was selected by the Golden State Warriors in 1990 and played in the league in obscurity for 6 years, but his playing career was not successful.

After retiring, he was hired as a scout by Spurs general manager R.C. Forboud, showing his extraordinary ability to discern people.

In 2003, the Trail Blazers poached him as director of player personnel, mainly responsible for inspecting and evaluating players.

A few days ago, he was promoted to the position of deputy general manager due to his outstanding work ability.

His teacher, Steve Patterson, the Blazers' general manager and team president, personally promoted Kevin.

Because of Kevin Pritchard's unique insights into team building, Patterson admired him very much.

Now, the Blazers' management structure is very healthy. It can be said that the main positions are all Patterson's cronies, and he holds absolute power!

The old man wearing glasses, Paul Allen, the owner of the Trail Blazers and currently the richest owner in the NBA, came here just to hear what Patterson and Pritchard said about "planning a plan." Big plans for the whole season”!

"These plans were first proposed by Pritchard. They are very complicated, and we will explain them to you slowly. But believe me, if we can succeed, our team will immediately usher in a 360°, no, a 180° big change." change!"

Kidd: You know a lot about math.

"Well, I'm listening, let's get started." Paul Allen nodded and motioned for the two of them to come and show off.

Paul Allen is not only the richest owner in the league, but also one of the most passionate owners in the league.

He truly loves basketball and is willing to participate in team building.

In this regard, he is completely different from the two brothers Simon, the owners of the Pacers.

The reason why the Simon brothers bought the Pacers in the first place was actually out of favor with the world.

Then why are you laughing? Do you think the saying "Basketball is about human relations" is a joke?

At that time, the Pacers were not doing well and owner Sam Nacy wanted to sell the team.

The person closest to acquiring the team was a Sacramento real estate tycoon.

If the deal was completed at that time, the Pacers would have been moved to Sacramento.

At this critical moment, it was the mayor of Indianapolis who personally asked the Simon brothers to take action to keep the basketball team in Indianapolis.

"Indianapolis people can't live without basketball!" the mayor said at the time.

So, as Yincheng entrepreneurs, they made a favor.

Anyway, the team is not expensive. At that time, the Pacers only sold for 11 million. And it can please politicians and local people, so why not?

In this way, two people who had no knowledge or interest in basketball became team owners.

So after they bought the Pacers, they left it there. They didn't expect the team to make much money. They just didn't lose too much. They just regarded it as charity for the city.

But Paul Allen is different. He really loves basketball.

He often appears in the stands wearing a Trail Blazers baseball cap, yes, in the stands, with the fans, not in the luxury suites.

He also often goes to the player tunnel to condolences and communicate with the players.

In addition, he is also serious about spending money on the team.

Before he did anything after buying the team, Paul Allen spent 200 million to build the Rose Garden Stadium, which was the most expensive home court in the NBA.

In the 1990s, in order to win the championship, he also gave "Little Flying Squirrel" Damon Stoudemire a seven-year, $80 million contract, and then provided Sean Kemp, who was seriously out of shape, with $1,400. With an annual salary of 10,000 U.S. dollars, Pippen, who is already past his prime, can also get 13 million U.S. dollars a year under Allen.

As long as he can win, Paul Allen spends money just as easily as Wayne spends money to grow.

No, it’s easier!

Money is just a number.

Wayne shed tears of poverty. The situation last season made him unable to even grow.

It's a pity that Allen smashed and smashed, and found that the championship was not smashed out, but a prison was built instead.

This money is completely wasted.

That's why he invited Patterson and Pritchard, hoping to end this chaotic period.

Now that the chaos is over, it's time to get back on the road.

"First of all, we have to start with this year's draft. This is the key! In this year's draft, we have to strive to trade for the No. 1 pick, and at the very least we have to have the No. 2 pick!

Secondly, I heard that the Timberwolves want to help Houston select Brandon Roy. This is an opportunity! if we"

When Kevin Pritchard spoke vividly, Paul Allen suddenly waved his hand: "Wait a minute, Kevin, why don't you tell me first, which players we can get if everything goes well."

"Well I know it's a bit bold, Paul. But if everything goes well, I think next season, we can get a lineup of Chris Paul + Wayne + Yao Ming.

I think this is the first step for us to become a championship contending team. "

After Kevin finished speaking, he glanced at teacher Patterson proudly.

Why does Patterson value this plan so much? Because there is Wei War God!

I have been missing Mr. Wei for two years!

If Walsh doesn’t want it, I’ll take over!

I am willing to take this spare tire!

This honest man, I will do it!

After hearing what Kevin said about the final appearance of this series of operations, Allen was stunned.

"Go ahead, go ahead and do it. Money is not an issue. Go ahead and let me do it!" Old Allen was a little excited now. His childhood dream of being a sports champion seemed to have been ignited again.

Sorry for coming late today. I have been taking care of my grandma in the morning. There is no one at home today. I can’t guarantee that there will be too many words today, so try to hold on to the 10,000 words~
