Chapter 176: Jazz trade
(For subscription, for monthly ticket!!!)
The Jazz lost four people overnight, plus the little Marlon Isaac Austin who was lying on the bed at this time and did not come back. Now the entire Jazz only has 10 players, although the Jazz have now The deal is completed, but because the players are now settling in, it is impossible to play immediately. Generally speaking, it is necessary to give these players who have not reported to the team for about three days, so the Jazz are true in the last three days. Only 10 players can fight.
And, if only, the four people who left the Jazz trade said that other than Jeff Malone, the other people did not contribute so much to the team, but whether these people are Spencer or Bennot or Humphries Although the strength of these people is a little worse, they are all important players for the rotation of the Jazz. After these people leave, the remaining wave of rotation players is worse than they are, basically expecting more. Not on.
This time the Jazz and Nets deal is not a one-on-one deal, but a three-way deal. There is no way. The Nets coach really appreciates the Jazz all-star scoring Jeff Malone who has shooting and physical skills. Now, the Nets’ ranking is actually a bit embarrassing. The 50% win rate has always been a little bit worse. In this case, this team really can’t wait any longer, especially when the time comes in February. After that, this period of time was when most of the league's aspiring teams played in the playoffs.
In this case, if the Nets continue to drag on, they will not be able to complete the reconstruction of the team at the right time. This team's hopes of hitting the playoffs this season can be said to be extremely slim, just the Nets want to To rob the Jazz, it is necessary to see the Jazz want to hit the championship this season, you need a good inside player. However, although the young insider pj Brown in their hands is good, but the strength is not enough to rob the Jazz. At least Jerry Sloan has improved the young man after the two teams played directly in that game. This player can be accepted.
But if you want to swap a young role player for a mature All-Star player, even if Scott Reden has no IQ, he won't do that. And some players other than pj Brown are really useless for the Jazz. An abacus like the Nets is simply impossible to succeed, so in this case, the Nets coach Chuck Daly, the most prestigious nba The head coach almost intervened personally and directly contacted his old club Detroit Pistons.
Although the old man left the Pistons' coaching position after retiring two years ago, the Pistons have been deteriorating since then, and have even become the bottom of all teams in the east. The team boss Isaiah Thomas is ready to retire. In this case, the Pistons are also preparing to clean up some of the team’s veterans, and are discussing the trade with the Kings and Nuggets.
After getting this situation, the Pistons godfather, who is now the Nets head coach, directly interrupted the Pistons management from the deal with the Kings and Nuggets, and pulled the Pistons into the Jazz and Nets deal. Come.
I have to say that although Mr. Chuck Daly left the Pistons, the head coach of the first team of dreams really said nothing about the influence. When the Pistons joined as a third party, the Nets and Jazz traded. It is finally possible to speed up the process. Because the Nets have all the conditions to meet the Jazz.
In this three-way deal, the Jazz sent the team's All-Star guard Jeff Malone, the team's starting small forward Bennot last season. The team’s former starting center Spencer, the team’s previous signing of the promising swingman Humphries and the team’s first-round draft pick next year
The Nets have sent the team's small shooting guard Edwards, the team's young insider pj Brown and the team's veteran insider Rick Mahon and the team's young defender David Wesley plus the team Next year's first-round draft pick
As for the Pistons, it sent the team's former All-Star forward Sean Elliott. The Spurs used to exchange Rodman's chips has been recognized by the Pistons as one of the most failed transactions in the team's history. The player who was selected by the Spurs in scoring 17 points per game last season and came to the Pistons averaged only 12 points per game, and both the shooting percentage, offensive efficiency and defensive efficiency have dropped greatly. In this case The next player whose contract is about to expire is already one of the most important cleanup players for the Pistons, because this guy is not willing to renew with the Pistons, and the Pistons have never thought about renewing his contract. In this case, free to leave and suffer too much. It can be said to be a player who is quite tangled with the Pistons.
In addition to sending the Elliott, the Pistons will also send the team's starting center Alden Pollinis. The Pistons center is in the same situation as Elliott. Both have only one year left on the contract. They don’t want to renew the contract with the Pistons. The Pistons are not prepared to renew the contract with the 30-year-old veteran. Otter is different, Elliott is now ready to return to the Spurs after the contract expires, and the Pollinis is ready to sign the last big contract of his career. Although the Pistons are sparse this season, his performance It is very good. Currently, he can contribute 13 points and 12 rebounds per game. Although in this era of All-Star insiders, his level is at most quasi-second-rate, but a quasi-second-rate inside wants to sign a 300. Ten thousand's contract is also possible, but if this guy is young, the Pistons are willing to give him a contract of three million, but this guy is now thirty years old, the Pistons are ready to rebuild, Isaiah Thomas' annual salary is not enough 2.5 million, if this guy is given 3 million, others will definitely rebel.
Therefore, the Pistons have been contacting the King recently for hoping to send Polynese to the King in exchange for the King's young insider Zilcutt, but just when the transaction was about to succeed, he was finally stopped by the master Chuck Daly.
Because Chuck Daly took a fancy to this insider, to be precise, Chuck Daly took a look at the inside of the Pistons and could be used as a middle bargain for Jeff Malone.
In fact, this is indeed the case. In this transaction, when Scott Reden saw the chips of Elliott and Polynes, there was almost no hesitation, and he immediately agreed, as for Elio The problem with the piston's disapproval? This is no problem. Returning to the West will definitely allow him to find his status again. As for the return of the Spurs player after the season, will the Spurs return to the Spurs without renewing their contract. This is not at all a question that Raiden needs to think about, because the Pistons are the bottom of the East. Doesn't he return to the Spurs and stay with the Pistons to lose every day? Can the Jazz be the first team in the league?
As for Pollinis, this is even simpler. After Raiden directly asked the Pistons to renew the contract with the insider for a four-year 9 million contract, the two teams completed the deal after signing and then swapping.
So in this deal, the Nets have harvested their most desired player, Jeff Malone, and a small outside forward, Bennot. Although Bennot was suppressed by Brian Russell this season, but After all, this small forward is a third-year rookie who played the season for the Jazz. Although the offense is really bad, the requirements of the Nets are different from the requirements of the Jazz, and this kid is indeed young and worth training.
As for the Pistons, this rebuilding team received a veteran veteran Rick Mahon, the Nets shooting guard Edwards, and the young potential of the Jazz inside Spencer. Of course, there is another coming soon. The contract of Humphries and a Nets draft pick and a first-round draft pick from the Jazz. For this rebuilt team, two players who are about to expire and don’t want to stay for two. Things like the round pick are definitely very profitable. It can be seen that Chuck Daly did not use his reputation to oppress his old club. As for the strength of these players in exchange, is it a bad contract? This is not what they need to consider. Now the Pistons have no pursuit at all in the past two seasons. Compared with the draft picks, these seemingly bad contracts will wait until their contract expires and all leave, except for Edwards and The contracts of people other than Spencer are not long, and Edwards and Spencer are more useful, at least much stronger than the King's Zilcat.
As for the gains of the Jazz, they obtained pj Brown and David Wesley from the Nets. Among them, David Wesley signed a three-year 1 million contract and then changed it. The previous contract of this guy is not guaranteed. contract. At the same time, he also received the Pistons starting small forward Elliott and the Pistons starting center Pollinis.
Of course, in the face of the upcoming four new teammates. Lin Han didn't know much about these four people. As for what role these four people can play after coming to the team, this is not what Lin Han needs to care about. Because it all depends on how the team's head coach Jerry Sloan adjusts the team.
It's just that in the training hall of the Jazz team, after a long road game, returning to the team's first class, there is really something that makes Lin Han worry.
"Brian, what's wrong with you kid today, with a look of insanity, won't you go where you were last night?"
The training hall of the Jazz is very deserted now. There are only 10 players who can come and train in the whole team. It can be divided into two teams. There are not even rotation players in the training game. What makes Lin Han very speechless is this. At the time, his younger brother Brian Russell had been reprimanded three times in a row by his head coach Jerry Sloan because of his inattention, which made Lin Han speechless.
Although the whole team left today because Jeff Malone, a very influential player, everyone's mood is not good, but Brian Russell is not necessary to do so, even though Lin Han knows Jeff Malone After the news of leaving, it was also a little unhappy, but it quickly returned to normal. After all, this is the status quo of nba. Isn’t it the most normal thing for a player to leave the team or to abandon the player? When every player enters the nba You should understand this later.
"Boss, not because Jeff left, but because Elliott came"
Just as Lin Han was preparing to reprimand Brian Russell during the break between training sessions, Aron Williams, who was walking by at this time, handed two bottles of functional drinks to Russell and Lin Han said after sitting down next to Lin Han.
Only after Williams finished speaking, Russell glared at Williams and continued to bow his head, not knowing what he was thinking.
What kind of person is Lin Han? Although his ball dealer is not very good, it is definitely not a guy with no IQ. Even Lin Han has always been a person.
Elliott, Jazz's upcoming new player. Lin Han is not very clear to him. Elliott did not play in the last game with the Pistons. Instead of playing for him, this year's rookie Alan Houston. Therefore, although this is an All-Star, Lin Han does not know very well. Although Lin Han is no stranger to nba now, many players Lin Han can’t understand everything so quickly, maybe this former Pistons player may even be a legendary player in the legendary system, but the There are so many legendary players. After a glance, I can remember that David Wesley was because Ellie once said that the legendary players in the legendary system are some people not because of their strength or because of their honor but because of some special Selected for reasons, such as Boykins, strength and honor can not meet the requirements, but because of his height based on nba, he was selected. David Wesley was named by Alice at the time, so Lin Han remembered it.
As for Elliott, what kind of player Lin Han is really unclear. Since this guy can enter the All-Star game, there should be some strength. Brian Russell is worried that his status will be replaced.
To be honest, for his own younger brother, Lin Han really appreciates it. Brian Russell is not the same as Aron Williams. Aron Williams really has no talent and can enter the team at The team is not based on anything else. It was because Lin Han was covering him, and Russell, when Lin Han entered the team. This guy was able to defend Lin Han's presence on the defensive end. It was the player who could put the most pressure on Lin Han among all the outsiders at the time. Although Lin Han's strength was not great at the time, except for Kobe's turn and back jumper Nothing outside, but after all, Lin Han was able to take the scoring leader in the genius training camp with that trick. This proves that although Brian Russell's other skills are very mediocre, but the defensive level is not low, the most At least much stronger than Bowen.
After the start of the season, because of Lin Han. After Jerry Sloan had given him a lot of playing time as Lin Han's bodyguard, the growth rate was even surprising to Jerry Sloan. Both the defense and the three-points have improved a lot. It can be seen that his confidence has been played. A non-draft player enters the starting lineup in a league first team, and each game time is more than thirty minutes, which is hard to estimate for the growth of a young player.
Therefore, although the Jazz have been looking for trades and opportunities to strengthen the team, there have been many options considered, but in any one of the options, the Jazz did not regard Brian Russell as the team's weakness. Notre was suppressed on the bench after the injury recovered. If Brian Russell was only covered by Lin Han and he had no strength, Jerry Sloan would not let him really start the game, either because The presence of Lin Han, the team's starting small forward will be the Jazz's biggest discovery this season.
Therefore, this time Lin Han glanced at his little brother and shook his head helplessly. He really didn't think that his little brother would have this time.
Although Russell is a very trustworthy player on the court and is very good off the court, after all, he is a young player. Such a young player is about to face an All-Star to compete for position. Naturally, it is extremely normal.
"Although I don’t know what Elliott’s strength is, Brian, you should know how Jeff left. When we entered the team, who thought that I could replace Jeff, you could be a starter , Can Aron enter the rotation?"
Looking at Brian Russell who was at a loss at this time, Lin Han also shook his head and continued: "Don’t forget the feeling of competition, afraid that you won’t be able to solve anything, since you are capable of being the first in the league. When the team starts, why bother to fear an All-Star from a fishy team?"
After finishing the speech, Lin Han didn't care about his little brother, and then picked up the drink just given by Aron Williams and drank it, while Brian Russell, who was sitting next to Lin Han, was He gritted his teeth, and his hands were constantly pinching the beverage bottle that had been deformed by him.
"Boss, I know what to do, maybe it's because of the All-Star rookie game, I look forward and backward, I will always work hard, whether it is Elliott or others. I will not be afraid, thank you, Boss and Aron"
After speaking. Brian Russell, like Lin Han, drank the drink in his hand.
See Russell who has become clear again. Lin Han and Aron Williams also nodded their heads. After gaining some honors, some people will soon forget the motivation to move forward, thinking that they have been successful enough in NBA, and they lack the challenges that once continued to challenge. Courage, this is the case with Brian Russell, as is the case with many nba players.
"Speaking of that, Brian's competitor is only Elliott. There are more than one of my competitors."
After Russell returned to normal, Williams on the side also smiled bitterly and said that he has a smaller goal of entering the NBA than Russell. He only wants to stand on the NBA, as long as he stays in the NBA. By the way, he knows that his talent is not as good as Russell or Lin Han, but after all, it was a team starter for a long time before, now. The team came with two insiders, and they were all very good insiders.
This is a double insurance for the Jazz, but for Aron Williams it is not a nightmare and a thunderbolt. Had he not been covered by Lin Han, let alone not in the team's position, it might not even be swept away.
Although knowing that Aron Williams's emotions are more of a frustration than the emotional setbacks of Russell before, Lin Han still sighed at this time.
It's impossible for everyone to be a star, and not everyone can find a position they are satisfied with. Most people are struggling at the bottom, and most of the players struggling at the bottom are like Aron Williams. How much talent, it is impossible to come forward, but these people are not really appointed by everyone.
Lin Han knew. Although his younger brother is cheerful, but after seeing Antonio Harvey start after the Lakers all hit. It is impossible for him to have no idea.
"Work hard together!"
Finally, when Lin Han drank the remaining beverage in his hand and stood up directly from the floor, he directly smashed the empty beverage bottle into the trash bin not far away. In the astonishing eyes of Aron Williams and Brian Russell, the Jazz's No. 8 player shouted directly.
I don’t know why. At this time, whether it is Russell or Aron Williams, he got up from the ground at this time, and then learned to move almost like Lin Han, smashing the bottle in his hand to the trash can. And shouted out loud.
"Boss, add me one, work hard together!"
"Me too, boss, I won't give up my efforts, I will definitely be able to make a starter in nba!"
"Hahaha, that's how it is. What did you do so gloomy just now? This is the spirit of our young players!"
At this time, Lin Han, Aron Williams and Brian Russell laughed at the side of the training hall, and at this time the other jazz players looked at the three people like crazy.
However, because of Lin Han’s relationship, they did not dare to do anything. In the Jazz, Lin Han and the three of them are together at any time. After all, everyone’s circle is different. Everyone’s age varies greatly. Lin Han Except that his two younger brothers and Jazz’s two players, Stockton and Malone, are relatively close, they are basically ordinary teammates with other players. They are teammates on the field, and they are basically not friends on the field. In fact, this is also the relationship between most nba players and players.
Because the upcoming four new players of the Jazz have greatly affected the current Jazz team. The emotional impact of the players, the players need to adapt to each other's influence, but the greater impact is still in the game.
On February 1, 1994, in the first game of the Jazz in February, this team returned to the home after the consecutive east road trip. The first opponent is the Rockets led by Olajuwon. This season In the previous two encounters, the two teams won and lost one tie, and this time, although the Jazz are at home, the team players are in good shape, not as sluggish as the last game.
However, before the game started, the Jazz were very pessimistic. There is really no way to not be pessimistic. Now, except for the five starting players, the other five or four important rotation players are all gone. Such a game It's okay to play a fish-meat team, but playing the Rockets is basically a losing game.
And after the game started, in fact, as the Jazz expected, the two sides came up very fiercely. In the face of the rocket that suddenly lacked an inside blue-collar player Thorpe, Malone's game The opponent is only Olajuwon. He only needs to pay attention to Olajuwon. As for Robert Holly, who is the Rockets power forward in this game, it is basically impossible for him to entangle Malone like Thorpe. After all, in Height or defensiveness Robert Holly is basically impossible to pressure Malone like Thorpe.
Therefore, although Malone is also a little afraid to go to the basket to face Olajuwon, but his feel is much better than the previous two games, so with the help of Lin Han, even the first on both sides After the festival, the Jazz still lead at home.
It’s just that an nba game can’t have only one quarter. When the second quarter started, facing the crazy attack of the Rockets’ bench, Malone and Stockton and Lin Han sitting on the sidelines were speechless. The three of them want to play the whole game, but Jerry Sloan is willing to do it. If this game is a playoff game, maybe Jerry Sloan will be willing to let the three cores of the team play the whole game, but this It's just a regular season. For this trivial victory, it's not necessary for the team's already adjusted core players to overdraft again.
Even if Malone had overdrawn, the team might not be able to beat the Rockets.
In this case, UU reads www. uukanshu.com, who had been leading by 3 points after the first quarter, had fallen by 5 points after halftime, and at the end of the game, the Rockets, who had been away from home, beat the Jazz 101-89 at home. The Jazz again suffered a defeat after a three-game winning streak, and in this game Lin Han did not exchange points for injuries as in the previous game, which caused Lin Han to directly face Olajuwon like crazy in Jordan shot from the outside, of course, Lin Han is also able to compare with the original Jordan. Jordan was afraid to kill the inside when facing Olajuwon, so the shooting rate was less than 45%, and Lin Han this time The game is almost the same, 10 of 27 in the audience, scored 26 points, which belongs to the standard iron statistics.
After losing this game, Lin Han and the Jazz were not disappointed. It was just that Thorpe’s lack of game made the Jazz up and down a bit puzzled. You must know that the Jazz now regard the Rockets as an imaginary enemy. The team wants to find the reason for the inside shield. Of course, the Rockets are definitely using the Jazz as an imaginary enemy. This is inevitable.
Perhaps at this time the Jazz was wondering why Thorpe didn't play. The Rockets might be more puzzled why the Jazz lacked four important rotation players.
Of course, after this game, Lin Han didn’t think for long. What surprised Lin Han was that the editor-in-chief of the basketball department of USA Today, Lin Han’s first blow in the United States, Alex actually came to the door. (To be continued) ()
