NBA: Start with 2 billion, buy the Knicks

Chapter 70: Super decisive! Final word! Sixth lottery!

Chapter 70: Super decisive! The final word! Pick No. 6!

McHale served as the general manager of the Timberwolves, a Western Conference team, last year because the Timberwolves drafted a great inside man, Kevin Love, last year, and McHale happened to be able to teach him low-post skills.

Jiang Chao is also very familiar with him. Harden was a first-generation coach in the Rockets era. In fact, after retiring as a player, McHale's performance in the management and coaching staff was very mediocre. If his player resume was not bad, he could be replaced by mediocrity.

Describe him.

He and Bird are the best forward combination in history, but their professional performances after retirement are very different.

He had no interest in Jiang Chao, so with the third pick he selected Harden, who the Timberwolves wanted.

"Is something wrong, Boss Jiang?"

McHale and his coach Casey were a little surprised, and the deputy general manager was writing Rubio's name on the envelope at this time. They were about to select Rubio with the fifth overall pick.

Jiang Chao took a deep breath, could you please let him have some peace of mind? It’s endless, isn’t it?

It doesn’t matter if General Manager Pu is temporarily added to the drama, something can happen with the No. 8 pick...

…

Meanwhile, Sean Marks, who was next to Jiang Chao, walked away with his cell phone to influence the Suns' transaction, and kept making nonsense:

"I've thought about it, we can trade the No. 8 pick."

"You can trade Nash, and we'll provide players or something."

"Is your new general manager sick? Can Nash be replaced with two No. 1 picks?"

"Nash is here to train Curry, you should know that, right?" The Suns deputy general manager still missed it, but it didn't matter. He felt that the Knicks must know that Old Downey liked Curry the most.

"You want Curry? Then your No. 14 pick is enough." Sean Marks had sweat on his forehead, and every word he spoke was a confrontation in the air.

"Fart, the Warriors and the Raptors behind you, the Bucks seem to be interested too, okay? There's still time, let's talk."

Jiang Chao's face was completely ashen after seeing what D'Antoni wrote on the paper.

how?

Don Nelson, this old lunatic, still has ideas!

Damn it, the plan couldn't keep up with the changes. If he had known that Curry would be selected with the No. 3 pick, Coha would choose one, and it would definitely be Curry, but he didn't expect that the Curry that was originally arranged would undergo such a big change.

Then he would risk it too!

So he said directly to McHale:

"Did the Suns just contact you to sign No. 6?"

"Yes, they wanted to pick Boris Diaw with the No. 14 pick and add a second round, but I rejected it," McHale said.

hiss......

Brother Diao actually refused. Jiang Chao could only say that if it weren't for Curry, he would have been tempted. This Diaw was an important member of the Spurs' championship later. The French magician's big butt made the Heat powerless, but that's something for another day. He was in the Suns

Last season he averaged 9 points and 4 rebounds per game and was an ordinary rotation player.

"Well, the 14th pick is too late. Can I use the 8th pick?"

"Boss Jiang, what are you???" Coach Casey did not give the envelope to the assistant after hearing this.

"Listen to me, I know you want Rubio with the No. 5 pick and Jonny Flynn with the No. 6 pick."

When Jiang Chao said this, the Timberwolves management looked at each other, I wonder, how does he know everything?

You must know that Jonny Flynn is also a person they have been hiding.

"You're not allowed to choose!" McHale was a little anxious after being seen through.

"I don't want to pick. I'm having some trouble here. The Suns and Warriors are eyeing the person I want to pick. If you do this, pick Rubio first with the fifth pick, trade us with the sixth pick, and then pick Jonny with the eighth pick.

Flynn, just one pick away from No. 7, the Warriors will not select Jonny Flynn!"

"Why? Why do I believe you?"

"What chips do you want?"

Jiang Chao's sudden nervousness and the way he kept talking on the phone made Mr. Thunder Pu and the others who were leisurely leisurely next to them stunned. They wondered what the boss was doing and why he was more nervous than the No. 3 pick.

"Gallinelli, will you give it? Haha."

McHale spoke decisively and half-jokingly.

The Knicks player he is most familiar with is the Italian shooting forward Gallinelli, who he tried out for a long time last year, because last year they were struggling to choose Love or Belle with the fifth pick.

Later, Love was selected with the fifth pick, and the Knicks selected Gallinelli with the sixth pick.

This is a tough white forward who can pass and shoot. In his rookie season with the Knicks, he also averaged 15 points, 5 rebounds and 4.5 assists per game, which is similar to Love.

He has already salivated over this kid.

If he comes over, paired with Love and Iverson inside, the Timberwolves will have a promising future.

Of course Jiang Chao knew what he was thinking, and he didn’t write:

"In this case, you ask Coach Casey to record a voice as evidence. If I am wrong, Gallinelli will give it to you."

McHale nodded, and Casey took out his cell phone to record.

Front desk David Stern was told in his headset that the fifth pick had not yet come out, so he shook hands with Evans for a while.

"In this case, can I take Duhon as the eighth pick? Duhon helps you train rookie guards Jonny Flynn and Rubio. They need such experienced guards to lead them. Moreover, he also has good passing skills and will hand the ball over.

You have Jefferson in the low post and Kevin Love as a rebounding monster."

"Then if you don't pick Jonny Flynn with the eighth pick, I will trade Gallinelli for Duhon after the draft and agree to your request!"

hiss!!!

The mustache next to him and Sean Marks, who couldn't stand it any longer, were both stunned.

The boss has devoted everything he has to this Curry!

Du Hong and Jiang Chao did not agree to Lei Ting's request.

Now he directly offered the offer to the Timberwolves, just to move up two picks!

And this bet is terrifying. If the Warriors really select Jonny, Jiang Chao will have to pay the price of this year's No. 8 pick and last year's No. 6 pick!

Although Jonny is predicted to be the 17th pick in the draft, who knows what Nelson thinks?

After the recording, Coach Casey said something to McHale behind the microphone: "A traditional point guard who averages 7 points and 4 assists per game is a good veteran."

The two looked at each other and nodded.

So he said to Jiang Chao: "You said so, Boss Jiang, we will give you the No. 6 pick. If we don't have Johnny Flynn, you will be finished!"

"rest assured!"

Jiang Chao thought to himself, who would want your 1.83 meter small guard? The Timberwolves management is still terrible. There are so many good guards. This year they chose Rubio and this offensive guard from Syracuse University.

Of course, you can't see how mediocre he is now.

If he were to take it, he would definitely suggest that the Timberwolves select DeRozan with the eighth pick, and the Raptors pick DeRozan at ninth. The current head coach of the Timberwolves is Casey, the mentor of the King of the North. Wouldn't it be nice for the two of them to join forces in their rookie season?

"With the fifth pick, the Timberwolves select Rubio..."

Front desk David Stern continues, and the handsome Spanish golden boy takes the stage.

Jiang Chao, who completed another deal in the flash of lightning, leaned back on his chair with his back soaked. The two managers next to him were stunned.

Another call came from McHale:

"I want to ask, which player do you want to be so crazy?"

"Stephen Curry."

"Damn it, why do you want him? Haven't you ever looked at him?"

Both McHale and McHale were puzzled. The Suns were normal. Downey Sr. had been scouting Curry for a long time, but the Warriors hadn't approached them. I don't know, but the Knicks suddenly added a good rotation guard to replace a thin shooting rookie.

, is it really worth it?

As veterans, they all didn't understand Jiang Chao's crazy choice.

Drafting two guards with a high pick? Awesome.

Because the Timberwolves also chose this way.

But do your Knicks have an insider like Jefferson?

At this time, Curry at the front desk had no idea that so many stories were happening for him behind the scenes.

Or later Sean Marks secretly told him, don't think you are less important than Harden, the boss is very decisive and sacrifices everything for him.

Just don’t give any room for manipulation, okay?

"With the sixth overall pick in the 2009 draft, the Timberwolves selected point guard Stephen Curry from Davidson College..."

Any more words?

The words in the lower row made David Stern's expression change again.

Is it him again who is mother-fxxk?
