Super Role Player

Chapter 7: Philadelphia

After packing her luggage in Los Angeles, Anxi took Abby on the plane to Philadelphia. {щww{suimеng][lā}

The deal between the Spurs and the 76ers has been completed, but it hasn't been officially announced, so the outside world still doesn't know anything about it. Anxi just quietly appeared in Philadelphia.

Philadelphia, the "City of Friendship", is the largest city in Pennsylvania and the fifth largest city in the United States. It is one of the oldest and most historic cities in the United States. The Port of Philadelphia is one of the largest estuary ports in the world. There are canals connecting the Delaware River and Chesapeake Bay, and there is a free trade zone with an area of ​​about 29 hectares. There are 6 bridges across the Delaware River in the large urban area, connecting with towns in New Jersey on the opposite bank.

The history of the Philadelphia 76ers is also quite brilliant. They have won the NBA championship 3 times. From Wilt Chamberlain, Julius Erving, Moses Malone, to Allen Iverson, the 76ers have been brilliant for decades. After Allen Iverson, the 76ers fell into mediocrity. Last season, they were 34 wins and 48 losses, ranking tenth in the Eastern Conference, and they didn't even make it to the playoffs.

After the end of the season, the 76ers have undergone earth-shaking changes. The new owner who took over the 76ers last season suddenly replaced the general manager and head coach of the team. The new general manager is from the Rockets, Sam Hinkie. As soon as it came, there were constant big moves, but every big move was questioned.

Among them, the transaction of sending away Zhu Holiday is the most questioned operation of Sam Hinkie. It is a No. 6 pick and a future first-round pick, and then Sam Hinkie also used that No. 6 pick to select Norlen Snoll, who was injured and declared out for the season before the draft.

Speaking of this choice, there is no problem in terms of candidates. Norlens Noel was the top pick before the start of the draft, but his injury made the Cavaliers and Wizards choose to give up, and eventually fell to the sixth pick. Sam Hinkie traded for Noel.

But the biggest problem is that the 76ers lost their All-Star player Holiday last season, but got a rookie who will not be able to play next season and has a doubtful future.

In addition to this operation, Sam Hinkie also let go of substitute players such as Nick Young and Dorrell Wright who performed well last season. After the free market opened, the 76ers became an empty shell.

However, for the new head coach of the 76ers, the media are generally optimistic. Brett Brown, who was born in the Spurs. Sam Presti of the Celtics, such as Doc Rivers of the Celtics, such as Monty Williams of the Hornets.

And Brett Brown is another assistant coach of the Spurs who has successfully taken the position of head coach. The media believe in Brett Brown's ability, but they don't believe that the strength of the 76ers can make Brett Brown realize his ability.

Without Zhu Holiday, what else can the current 76ers do?

On July 5th, Anxi arrived in Philadelphia. Sam Hinkie sent someone to pick up Anxi and Abby at the airport. Together with Ivo Clark who arrived earlier, the two sides met at the 76ers training hall.

Brett Brown walked over from a distance and stretched out his hand towards Anxi.

"Ann, we meet again, welcome."

Brett Brown is full of smiles, and his wrinkles are all open. He was born in 1961, he is not very old, he is only 52 years old, but there are quite a lot of wrinkles on his face. Just looking at the wrinkles, he looks worse than *Vich Be big.

Sam Hinkie also stood aside and said with a smile: "Ann, welcome, we have prepared everything for you. We will hold a press conference at 4 pm, but before that, the boss wants to see you."

Anxi nodded, but suddenly something changed in his heart. Anxi knew the owner of the 76ers. He bought the 76ers in 2011. Now he is the owner of the NFL New Jersey Devils and the Premier League Crystal Palace. He is like a sports tycoon.

The signing of the 76ers by Anxi this time has obviously attracted the attention of the boss, which is also a good thing for Anxi.

Walking to the office on the second floor, Sam Singh opened the door for Anxi, but he didn't go in, so Anxi walked in alone.

The owner of the 76ers is Josh Harris, a young-looking boss who is neatly dressed and has a curly hair. However, Anxi always feels that his curly curly hair is very strange, and he does not look like Pat Riley. Then match.

But this is not something Anxi needs to pay attention to. He nodded to Josh Harris, said hello, and then sat down.

Josh Harris leaned forward, looked at Anxi and smiled: "Anxi, I am very glad to see you choose my team, because I know that you will help me earn a lot of money. In recent years, I have been Transformation in business, now, my main business is the sports industry, so your arrival is really of great help to me."

He continued: "So to repay you, I'm going to give you an amazing right that even Kobe Bryant didn't have."

Anxi's breathing was a little short, amazing rights, rights that Kobe Bryant never had, is this Josh Harris joking?

Josh Harris seemed to see through Anxi's thoughts, and he looked at Anxi with deep meaning: "Don't worry, Ann, I'm not joking, I will give you a promise, if you can become an All-Star this season, I will let you have a certain You can participate in the signing of the team, and if Sam Hinkie doesn't cooperate, you can come to me."

"This is my promise. The premise is that you want to become an All-Star, just like Yao Ming did back then. Okay, let's not talk about this topic. Let's talk about your life in Philadelphia?"

...

Anxi is a little excited. The right that Josh Harris gave to Anxi is simply the right to sign recruits independently. Kobe does not have this right. Otherwise, Anxi should have stayed in Los Angeles now, and few in the league have this right. Few, perhaps only LeBron James, who was still in the Cavaliers, had this right.

The role of this right is undoubtedly great. Anxi can introduce teammates that suit him according to his own needs.

Josh Harris took Anxi to chat about life in Philadelphia, including suggesting that Anxi buy a house on Benjamin Franklin Avenue, because it is close to Fairmont Park, the largest urban park in the world, with beautiful scenery and fresh air.

Finally, at 3:30 in the afternoon, Josh Harris glanced at his watch, and said to Anxi: "Okay, Ann, it's time, you should go to the press conference and tell the group of reporters, from here From now on, you are the head of the Philadelphia 76ers!"
