NBA: I! The Most Versatile Player Ever!

Los Angeles, Kobe's home.

After Kobe sat down with the Cardinals and Ainge, Kobe spoke first.

"Mr. Auerbach and Manager Danny, I know what you're here for today, but I'm going to the Celtics!

Kobe Bryant didn't have any cover, and directly stated his thoughts.

This is Kobe Bryant today.

Kobe in this period was indeed immature.

Otherwise, he wouldn't say things like 'Shaq did it too'.

Such a player has no scheming, so he directly rejected the cardinal in person.

Cardinal and Angie's expressions did not change.

Both of them are old foxes, and the Lakers have already sent away the sharks at this time, obviously satisfying the conditions for Kobe to stay.

Kobe wants to stay - the Lakers are normal.

But since Kobe was willing to see the two of them, he explained one thing.

The Celtics still have a chance!

A smile appeared at the corner of the cardinal's mouth.

"Kobe, don't jump to conclusions, I want to know what conditions the Lakers gave you for keeping you?

"I will be the boss of the Lakers next, and Lamar Odom, Caron Butler and others are also very talented. When they grow up, Mr. Buss also promised me that he would sign for me."5

Kobe Bryant is also very straightforward and directly stated the commitment of the Lakers.

Kobe Bryant didn't mention the contract, because he and the Cardinals are very clear, how many contracts the Lakers can give, the Celtics will definitely not be bad!

"That's all? Kobe.

Hearing the cardinal's words, Kobe was stunned and asked: "Mr. Auerbach, isn't this enough?"

"Because of Gu Yu recently, I often read some books from flower gardeners. There is a very interesting word in it, called 'painting cakes to satisfy hunger'.""

"The promises the Lakers made to you at this time, in my opinion, are all 'painted cakes', and the painted ones are never real.

"I'm not going to say whether Caron Butler and Lamar Odom can be good players, or even All-Stars, just bring you help and you will be hollow."

"I know that the Lakers have a lot of assets at this time. After all, it was traded for Shaq."

"Normally, there's nothing wrong with trading an All-Star, but are you really sure there's a team willing to trade?"

Wanting to trade and being able to trade are two concepts.

Many fans, as 'General Manager Yun', often imagine that their home team will trade a certain star.

There are several issues involved here.

First of all, whether the opposing team will trade or not.

It doesn't mean that if you give the minimum chips, the other party will definitely sell it.

All-star players, unless they want to go, or the team wants to rot.

Otherwise, the general team, especially the small market team, will not easily sell All-Star players.

why?

Because All-Stars are a box office guarantee!

After all, the NBA is a business league, and many teams have never thought about competing for the championship.

The most typical example is today's Clippers. In the hands of the current owner, Sterling, the Clippers are a ticket-selling team.

Championship?

nonexistent.

This is why, many stars often go out to recruit other team stars.

If people don't have the will, it's useless even if you give more chips.

Kobe frowned slightly after listening to the words of the cardinal, obviously he also understood the meaning of the cardinal.

When the cardinal saw this, the curvature of the corner of his mouth became wider.

"When it comes to the future, do you think Lamar Odom and Caron Butler can compare to Gu Yu, Lore Deng, and Okur?"

"The Celtics have Paul, you've played against him, you know, Paul is a very good small forward.

"Michael can win championships with Scotty, you and Paul, plus Gu Yu, the Celtics have a lot of talented rookies."

"When it comes to the future, the Celtics are truly brilliant, and Kobe, don't you think, are you too far from Shaq?"

Too far!?

Kobe glanced at the cardinal doubtfully, not understanding what the cardinal said.

The Cardinal explained: "Shaq went to the Heat and you stayed with the Lakers and you can only play twice a season."

"Do you care, Kobe, whether you win or lose in the regular season?"

"I think for you, you'd rather beat Shaq in the playoffs?

"Let me not say, can the Lakers make it to the finals, are you sure the Heat can make it to the finals? Don't forget that there are five Pistons in the East!"

Piston Five Tigers!

Hearing these four words, Kobe's face darkened obviously.

Facing the Pistons in the finals, Bryant played a disastrous finals performance.

The series averaged 22.6 points, 4.4 assists and 2.8 rebounds, while shooting 38.1 percent from the field and 17.4 percent from three-point range.

On this performance, there is nothing wrong with saying a disaster.

The handcheck rule, although the league is ready to cancel, but has not yet officially confirmed the cancellation.

Although Bryant didn't want to admit it, Bryant really felt that the Sharks alone couldn't deal with the Pistons.

As for Wade....

Last season, he was just a shooting guard who averaged 16.2 points per game. Bryant really didn't think that the Sharks could beat the Pistons with Wade.

"If I tell you, you come to the Celtics, I can't promise to beat the Pistons, but I can help you beat Shaq!

"Except for Gu Yu, even Luoer Deng, I can trade it out for instant combat power."

Kobe didn't speak, just kept blinking his eyes, obviously thinking.

For a while, the house fell into a dead silence.

After a long while, Kobe slowly said: "I have one last question, if I go to the Celtics, who will be the core, or Gu Yu?

The cardinal heard Kobe's words and did not answer immediately.

He hesitated, and finally, the cardinal said with difficulty: "I can let you be the core for a few years, but the future of the Celtics is Gu Yu, and the core of the future Celtics will only be Gu Yu! "

Kobe frowned involuntarily when he heard this.

It will only be Gu Yu....

Bryant squeezed out the sharks, just for the status of the team leader.

He's happy with what the Cardinals have to say, but if the Celtics can't give Kobe Bryant's core...

Angie wanted to speak very much at this time. According to his idea, he should fool Kobe first!

As long as you can fool around, then everything will be no problem.

"I think my answer, I won't say, Mr. Auerbach knows it too."

The cardinal didn't speak, got up and left with Angie.

Kobe looked at the background of the Cardinals, his eyes flashed with fighting intent, and said to himself: "Gu Yu, what kind of player are you? If Auerbach can reject me for you, I want to play against you even more. !"

On the plane to Boston, Angie asked, "Teacher, why don't you lie to Kobe first?"

"Danny, I was able to get Bill's support, it's never by deceit, lies will only exist for a while. 35

"Have you ever thought about how the Celtics will face Kobe when the lie is exposed? Even Shaq can't hold Kobe in the locker room, how can you be sure that Gu Yu can hold Kobe?

Field strength and locker room are two different things.

According to the finals, there is no doubt that the Sharks played better, but did the Sharks overpower Kobe?

!

Therefore, the Cardinals did not want the Celtics to become the Lakers they are today.

And just after the Cardinal got on the plane.

Bryant went on to sign a seven-year, $136.4 million contract with the Lakers.

The Indiana Pacers also reached a deal with the Hawks at this time.

The Indiana Pacers traded Al Harrington for Stephen Jackson of the Atlanta Hawks.

Harrington played 79 times last season, including 15 starts, and averaged 13.3 points and 6.4 rebounds per game, making him a strong contender for the sixth man of the year, and eventually ranked second.

O'Neal Jr., though nominally the Pacers' four, is actually a five.

Because Harrington plays more at the 4.

This is why, O'Neal Jr. will recruit Dampier.

The Celtics then began to prepare to trade Luo Er Deng.

The Celtics actually didn't want to trade Luoer Deng. After all, the Celtics were crowded at positions 3 and 4 at this time.

Pierce is a small forward, and Gu Yu, following the Cardinals' thinking, started at the 4.

Okur himself is also a player who can swing to the 4.

Although Dior claims to be able to play in five positions, it is still more suitable for swinging in the three or four positions.

Even if Luoer Deng stayed with the Celtics, he didn't have stable playing time at this time, so the Celtics put Luoer Deng on the shelf at this time.

After putting it on the shelves, the Bulls took the lead in inquiring. For the Bulls, they are in great need of a forward defender.

Here I have to mention the Knicks.

Under the tricks of the Smiling Assassin, the Knicks' draft rights were traded out in various ways.

In the original history, the Bulls were able to play the playoffs while winning the second overall pick in 2006 and the ninth overall pick in the first round in 2007, all thanks to the support of the Knicks.

But this is all about the future when Eddie Curry is involved.

The Bulls want to use their first-rounder, Lor Deng, but the problem is that the Celtics aren't fools.

...for flowers

The Cardinal knows very well that youngsters like the Bulls are about to finish their leveling, and it's not a big problem to play in the playoffs. Isn't the first round of trading the Bulls sick at this time?

And the Bulls are not willing to give the first round in 2005, only after 2006.

This......

The white wolf with empty gloves is nothing more than that!

And the Celtics still have enough salary space at this time, so after the Bulls finished the deal with the Knicks about Crawford, they once again pulled the silly smiling assassin into the deal.

Knicks send: Kurt Thomas, Anfernee Hardaway, 2006 first-round pick and 2007 first-round pick.

Celtics sent: Yerry. Vershko (16th overall pick in 2002), Lor Deng.

Bulls send: 'Baby Shark' Eddie Curry and 2007 first-round pick.

Celtics get: Kurt Thomas, Anfernee Hardaway, Knicks 2006 first round.

Knicks get: 'Shark' Eddie Curry, Yerry Welshko and Bulls 2007 first-rounder.

Bulls get: Luol Deng and the Knicks' 2007 first-round pick.

The first-round picks of the Bulls and Knicks in 2007 were swapped.

'Penny' Anfernee Hardaway is an absolute rubbish contract right now.

He has $30 million remaining on his contract for the next two seasons.

Last season in the Knicks, the regular season averaged only 9.6 points and 4.5 rebounds.

But facing the Nets in the playoffs, the series averaged 16.5 points, 5.8 assists and 4.5 rebounds per game.

Although there are still two years left on his contract, the Celtics are basically overvalued contracts at present, and they are not worried about the explosion of the cap space at all.

In addition, the Celtics are currently all rookies, and also need a veteran to help grow, in the case of not being able to trade for All-Star players.

Hardaway is barely a good choice.

The Celtics in addition to draft picks, the real target is Kurt Thomas.

Kurt Thomas, nicknamed "Crazy Eye" and "Dirty Kurt", is generally talented, and his strong post defense has made him a firm foothold in the league.

It can be seen from the nickname alone that Kurt Thomas is not a good guy.

And the Cardinals want this kind of villainous player!

Just like the Spurs have Bruce Bowen, and the Warriors will have 'Dream Chaser' Green in the future.

The Cardinals also need a bodyguard for Gu Yu on the court.

And Kurt Thomas is the best choice!

Although some chips were sent, but this deal, if 2006 is the same as the original history, the Knicks' first-round pick is still second.

So for the Celtics, it's definitely a big win!

And the Celtics are still on the shelf players Ricky Davis, Chucky Atkins, Walter McCarty.

In the original history, Chucky Atkins was one of the chips in the trade for Payton.

But this history, with the Celtics getting a lot of rookies, Payton naturally does not believe that the Celtics can win the championship.

Payton asked the Lakers to send him to a place where he could win a championship.

Thus, the Pacers became the historical place of Peyton.

The four teams in the Western Conference finals last year were the Timberwolves, Lakers, Pistons and Pacers.

The Timberwolves have All-Star point guard 'Alien' Cassell, and Payton still has the strength to fight at this time, so naturally he doesn't want to be a substitute.

The Pistons also have new FMVP Chauncey Billups.

The Pacers lacked a top point guard, so this trade was born.

Pacers sent: 2006 and 2008 second round, from the Lakers traded for Payton.

July 15.

With the passage of time, above the free market, the big fish themselves have come to an end.

At this time, another big melon appeared in the Dream Six Team, which had begun to assemble for the first time.

The original 12-member roster of the Dream Six Team turned out to be only two people to report!

Nick Chris and Okafor are college students, and the Dream Team has a tradition of bringing college students.

The remaining ten people are NBA stars, and then only Iverson and Duncan went to report.

Gentleman Lei, 'White Devil' Bibby, McGrady, O'Neal Jr. and others all excused themselves from being called up by the Dream Team.

And their reason is also very simple, that is, because of 'marriage', they say they don't want to join the dream team.

Actually because of the terrorist attack, and because of that.

For these guys who are making excuses, Iverson is angry directly in front of the media!

"When you're drafted into the dream team, there shouldn't be any doubts in your mind, no other thoughts. You should see the opportunity to represent your country (playing) as an honor. There's nothing better than that. What's important?" Chuan.
