I am Really an Insider

Chapter 216 213: Sister-in-law, can I do this (5K votes requested)

The 2006 NBA Draft has come to an end, but the one that attracted the most attention tonight was not the rookies, but Wayne, who was traded four for one.

The saddest thing is Chris Paul.

What does it mean to fall from the clouds to the trough, what does extreme happiness lead to sorrow.

The champagne and cigars in my hands suddenly no longer smell good.

The music was still playing, but suddenly I couldn't dance anymore.

Forget it if Randolph didn't deal with it, now here comes Wayne

Don’t let people live anymore!

You are trying to unite to bully me!

Paul wants to cry but has no tears. I am the strongest 183 on the surface, will I be reduced to a dribbling defender?

Schwartz also called Wayne after the draft: "The day after tomorrow, I will take you to Portland to meet with the Trail Blazers management.

They'd love to meet you and discuss future plans with you. "

"Okay Jeff, it's finally settled, isn't it?"

"Yeah, it's finally over. Next, you have to be prepared in the west. The competition here is more intense than in the east."

"Don't worry, I'll see you the day after tomorrow, Jeff."

After hanging up the phone, Wayne smiled.

Are you going to meet with the management so soon?

Speaking of which, Steve Patterson has always wanted himself.

It was only greened by Bird two years ago.

Well, if Bird were still here, who knows if this deal would have happened.

The next day, the blockbuster trade between the Trail Blazers and Pacers made headlines in newspapers in both places.

The fans in Torn City are quite polarized. Some people are cheering for this, while others are not optimistic about this deal.

With Wayne and Randolph together, I'm afraid it's not Prison Team 2.0.

Oh, and there's also a cannonball.

Originally last season, Pao'er and Randolph were at loggerheads, and rumors of their disagreement were flying everywhere.

If it weren't for the fact that Paoluo is just a rookie and doesn't dare to be too aggressive, you can see how chaotic the locker room is.

Now, here comes another Wayne who has a problem with Paoluo. This is the Romance of the Three Kingdoms!

If the locker room is messed up, the Blazers will really fall into a whirlpool again.

That guy Randolph might pull out his gun at any moment.

Besides, even if they form a lineup of Paul + Wayne + Randolph, the Blazers may not have much breakthrough.

In this case, it is better to cultivate Roy + Aldridge + Paul.

Some people think that the rookie FMVP can continue to shine in Portland. Although Wayne has a lot of fights, his strength is still online. He is a proper All-Star starting level, and he is very likely to get stronger!

As for the relationship with Paul, there is actually no need to worry at all.

The core of the conflict between Paul and Randolph is not actually their personalities, but their attitudes towards the game.

Randolph is basically in a state now where winning or losing doesn't matter, as long as he can get data.

And Paoer has wanted to win since high school.

If these two people are together, there should be no trouble.

But Godway is different. Godway also wants to win.

In the face of a common goal, the two will definitely resolve their differences.

Wayne: To bury the hatchet? nonexistent. But don’t worry, my level of diplomacy is still very high.

If Portland fans had mixed feelings about the deal, those in the cornfield were derided.

"They actually traded Wayne, and our championship lineup was completely dismantled after only two years of existence!"

"Oh my god, I can't believe Donnie would make such a decision, I hope everything goes well for the team."

"It seems that we are going to enter a long period of reconstruction. It's just a pity for Jermaine."

Although everyone knew there was a rift between Wayne and Walsh, they still couldn't bear to see Wayne being traded.

They originally thought that Wayne would be another one-man, one-city legend, but little did they know that their illusions were shattered so quickly.

Paul also accepted a phone interview with reporters the next day and asked him what he thought of the deal.

Pao'er: "The management's decision is very correct. I am very much looking forward to joining forces with the rookie FMVP! To be honest, I can't wait to start the new season as soon as possible!"

Well, Pao'er on the phone is happy, but Pao'er outside the phone has a drawn face.

After all, he is the old fake-smiling boy, and this kind of operation is not uncommon for Pao'er.

The reporters originally wanted to interview Randolph, but they couldn't find anyone else.

I don’t know where the fat man went and died in a dream.

Just after the dust of Wayne's trade settled, the "war" between various teams for Yao Ming also entered a fierce stage.

Dawson and Gou Lei looked at the contracts and were frightened.

70 million for the Bulls in 4 years, well, this is actually considered to be a waste of money.

Because the Lakers directly offered Yao Ming a five-year maximum salary contract estimated at 85 million to close to 90 million!

If Yao Ming renewed his contract early last season, his maximum salary would be calculated based on last season's salary cap.

But now that the contract is renewed, the maximum salary is calculated based on the salary cap after the increase next season. This is the difference.

So although they all have maximum salaries, Yao Ming's current price is completely different from before.

For this reason, the Lakers are already preparing to pardon Brian Grant to make room for Yao Ming.

Chase Yao Ming with all your strength!

By then, Kobe + Yao Ming + Odom, Phil Jackson's triangle offense will be back!

These two quotes have already made Gou Lei tremble with fear.

The Bulls' four-year, $70 million offer was actually quite acceptable, so I gritted my teeth and decided to take it.

But 90 million in five years

How does this match!

90 million in five years. If Alexander was willing to part with this money, Houston would have won the championship long ago.

Just when Goulei thought this was exaggerated enough, the Blazers who had just finished their work yesterday suddenly stepped in again.

"Breaking news! The Portland Trail Blazers offer Yao Ming a maximum salary of 90 million over five years! They will compete with the Lakers!"

"What on earth do the Trail Blazers want to do!? Isn't their operation over yet!?"

"Oh my god, if Yao really joins the Trail Blazers, that would be terrible!"

When Mr. Stern saw the news, he was also confused.

Paul Allen, don't bully others too much! What are you doing? It’s amazing how much money you have! ?

Allen: Yes, with money you can do whatever you want.

Why do the Trail Blazers always have so many junk contracts in history? It's because Paul Allen doesn't treat money as money.

As long as it's a player he wants, he's willing to spend any amount of money on it.

So many players got big contracts in Portland.

To put it bluntly, what the Blazers have been lacking is not money, but money not spent wisely.

This time, while both Paoer and Wayne are still under child labor contracts, the Blazers must be extravagant.

Wayne was also confused after seeing the news.

So courageous? Bid with the Lakers!

The Trail Blazers are preparing to go straight to the stomach this year.

But with Yao Ming + himself + Randolph, wouldn’t the inside line be too crowded?

Should I play small forward?

With a confused mood, Wayne came to Portland as planned.

This time, Patterson and Pritchard also went to the airport to pick him up in person, just like they did when Wayne came to the Trail Blazers for trial training.

"Wei, we meet again, welcome to the City of Tear!" The moment Patterson saw Wayne, he almost cried.

The goddess and man I have longed for day and night finally agreed to be with me!

The diaosi counterattack is underway!

Who says licking a dog can’t be in the house!

"Good morning sir."

"Don't be so restrained, just call me Steve. This is Kevin, my assistant and the team's deputy general manager." Patterson quickly introduced Pritchard.

"Hello Wei, with you joining us, we will be even more powerful." Pritchard also shook hands with Wayne enthusiastically.

"Good vice president, good vice president." Wayne was still humble, and he was very good at dealing with people and sophistication.

Well, I haven’t seen this kind of management atmosphere for a long time.

After getting in the car, Patterson introduced the city of Portland to Wayne vividly, as he did the same introduction two years ago.

"By the way, you don't have to worry about the house. We have found several alternative places for you. You can just go and see the house!"

In addition, our team has car heating services. When your car is in the parking lot of an arena or airport, please let us know in advance when you are leaving. Someone will help you start the car in advance and turn on the air conditioner, which will keep you warm in the winter and cool in the summer! "

"This" how many people have you hired? You really have money and no place to spend it.

However, from these small details, Wayne can already feel the sincerity of the Trail Blazers.

Afterwards, the car was driven into a mansion in the suburbs of Portland.

This mansion is surrounded by a sea of ​​roses, and the entire house is surrounded by roses.

Wayne got out of the car and Paul Allen walked out of the house.

"Wei, welcome to Portland! Welcome to the Rose Garden!" Allen hugged Wayne warmly.

Afterwards, Patterson, Pritchard, Allen, Wayne and Schwartz drank tea and talked in the courtyard of the mansion.

Patterson repeatedly emphasized: "You will be the absolute core, there is no doubt about it.

In fact, we have already started to build a lineup for you. I believe you have also seen our offer for Yao Ming. This time we will not make false claims. "

Pritchard also chimed in at this time: "For the head coach selection, we will still insist on using Nate McMillan. He is a former professional player and served as the captain of the SuperSonics. He has no problem getting along with the players.

Coach McMillan's coaching style emphasizes strict discipline, tough defense and quick changes in pace, which is very suitable for your performance. "

Pritchard specifically emphasized that McMillan has experience as a professional player, and the subtext is: "Don't worry, he will not be as full of management atmosphere as Walsh."

"Wei, I have been longing for a championship for many years. You have championship genes, you were a FMVP, and I believe you can lead the team to create glory. Help Portland, help me, and realize your dream of a championship!

Whatever you need, we will definitely cooperate with you! "

Paul Allen also gave Wayne a subtext: "As long as you play well, the maximum salary will not be a problem at all in the future! Whether it is 90 million or 100 million, I will cooperate! There is only one goal, the championship!"

Wayne glanced at Schwartz, who just shrugged at Wayne.

Today, he couldn't get a word in at all.

The purpose of an agent's existence is to strive for the best interests of the players.

But the Trail Blazers immediately put their best interests forward as soon as they came up, and they didn't even need an agent to fight for them.

With the core position established, what else do you need for bicycles?

If he really plays well, Wayne wonders if he will have some say in drafting and recruiting.

Especially for the draft, Wayne has opened his eyes after all. If he can have a say in the draft, then it will be

Dry!

You must play well in the Trail Blazers!

After talking with everyone from the Trail Blazers, Wayne was so excited that he called Brother Yao from the society.

"Come on, this time I can officially recruit you, Brother Yao! Accept the offer from the Trail Blazers, let's grow bigger and stronger together, and create greater glory! When the time comes, I will have the AK, and you will have the eh, how about it!"

Wayne thought Yao Ming would readily agree, but Yao Ming smiled bitterly: "Xiao Wei, if you are not Brother Yao, I don't want to team up with you, but I have already verbally agreed to Kobe."

Kobe: Hey, I didn’t expect that. What does Kobe’s formula say? Before you guys came, I had already reconciled with Yao Ming!

Can Kobe not take action? O'Neal and Wade won the championship this summer, which greatly stimulated Kobe.

He didn't want to wait any longer.

Are you looking for a defender to replace me? Then I'll find a center to replace you, Shaq!

Yao Ming and I won the championship together, and I’m going to piss you off, you fat shark!

Therefore, Kobe, who has always been proud, lowered his posture and persuaded Yao Ming sincerely this time.

Not only Kobe, Phil Jackson also loved Yao Ming. A center like Yao Ming is very suitable to be the central axis of the triangle offense.

So as soon as the season ended, Master Jackson personally called Yao Ming to invite him to join and launched a frenzied lobbying campaign.

In addition, "Don't underestimate the heart that has tasted brains" Tomjanovich personally went to Houston to talk with Yao Ming.

Although Mr. Tang did not serve as the Lakers head coach for too long, the Lakers still retained him as a player development consultant.

Although he has retreated behind the scenes, he is still a member of the management team.

By keeping Master Tang, the Lakers actually wanted to attract Yao Ming.

The Lakers basically mobilized all members to lobby Yao Ming.

On Yao Ming's side, because he did not renew his contract in advance and was injured during the contract year, Mosaic's attitude towards contract renewal was ambiguous, which also made him a little frustrated.

Although Mosaic also dispatched Alexander + Olajuwon's lobbying team, there was no mention of reinforcements.

The paintings are all about "Mosaic is a team with a great center tradition".

Just forcefully deceive Yao Zhongcheng.

But they never expected that what Wayne said before, "This is a business alliance," touched Yao Ming a lot.

Although for Yao Ming, the honor of the national team is greater than the NBA championship, it does not mean that he has no desire for the NBA championship.

Therefore, Yao Ming did not say that again this time: "Since Houston chose me, I have no reason to leave."

He really thought about leaving.

Therefore, a few days ago, he promised Kobe: "I will choose to sign with the Lakers."

Wayne was really late.

With Yao Ming's character, he has already promised others that he will not be a second-rate kid.

Although he only agreed verbally, Yao Ming really couldn't do it.

Wayne called it a mistake! Kobe stole someone from me!

If I had known better, I would have learned mousse and held a meeting to discuss it in advance.

So, this mousse is indeed very refined.

"Is this non-negotiable?"

"It's not good after all, hey." Yao Ming was also a little embarrassed. On one side was the younger brother of the national team, and on the other side was Kobe, who had already agreed. It was difficult to choose.

In addition, on Mosaic's side, Goulei also came up with a plan: "We don't match the contract offered to Yao Ming by the Lakers and Trail Blazers, but we will make up for it by signing a contract with him at a price lower than the maximum salary.

Although Big Ben can't compare with Yao Ming in offense, he is good in defense and can withstand attacks. Trish is enough for offense.

This can save money and ensure strength.

Wouldn't it be great if the money saved can also be used to strengthen role players? "

When Alexander heard that this plan could save money, his eyes suddenly lit up: "Okay, okay, your dog's head is still shrewd."

Just like that, on July 1, as soon as the NBA free transfer market opened, the Lakers dropped a bombshell.

"Yao Ming signed with the Lakers for a maximum salary of 88 million in 5 years, and Mosaic did not match the contract!"

"Yao Ming joins forces with Kobe, a new OK combination is born!"

"The NBA finale is here, and the Lakers are about to start their second three-peat mode."

Wayne felt really sad when he saw the news.

Now, Yao Ming is gone, and the dream lineup is shattered.

As soon as the news came out, Patterson made a phone call to comfort Wayne: "Don't worry, don't be discouraged. Although it's a pity that Yao Ming couldn't come, we still have a plan, so stay tuned."

Well, in order to ensure that this takeoff plan was foolproof, Patterson and Pritchard were fully prepared and considered what to do if they could not get Yao Ming.

So the next day, as soon as Wayne got up and picked up his phone, he saw a piece of breaking news.

This is what you call the Beep Plan! ?

"Zach Randolph and Pau Gasol swap clubs, and the Trail Blazers join the ranks of the Western Conference's top teams!"

"Dream Twin Towers, where are the upper limits of Wayne and Pau Gasol?"

"Randolph + 2007 second-round pick + 2009 first-round pick in exchange for Pau Gasol, who wins and who loses?"

Patterson and Pritchard have spent all their draft picks. The championship team really doesn't need the draft picks.

They are really going to win the championship!

Wayne looked at the news that Gasol had joined the Trail Blazers and shook his head.

Tit for tat.

You steal my Yao Ming, I will steal your sister-in-law!

Now, it’s really more fun than my sister-in-law.

In this way, once Randolph leaves, the Trail Blazers' core lineup will be Pao'er + Wei Ge + sister-in-law.

Wayne was a little excited, this was still very competitive!

Gasol's character will not have any negative impact on the locker room.

Feel comfortable!

Although it is not as fragrant as Yao Ming, it is quite fragrant.

For the third season of his career, the Cornfield God of War is looking forward to it more and more.

No, no more Cornfield War God.

Now, call me the Rose Garden Butcher!
