Super Small Forward

"Mr. Magic, is it true that you have sent the Warriors a trade application for Harris Barnes?"

"Wow, it would be great to get a player like Harris. Harris will become a free agent in the next offseason. Why don't we pursue him? Oh, nononono, you guys are playing me again Anyway, I can't say that I want to recruit him. Of course, I won't do that when I meet him, but I will wink at him. I think he will understand what I mean..."

"..."

When the Lakers faced off against the Pelicans and the Jazz at home and made Anthony Davis and Gordon Hayward once again feel the deep malice from Los Angeles, the NBA began to spread the Lakers to the Warriors. The transaction became the biggest news for a while, and the bullying of Anthony Davis and Hayward by the Lakers was completely ignored.

This news is naturally an unremarkable thing that the chick and the Lakers management released after contacting the Lakers management, but this kind of transaction between the first and second in the league, even if it is just a rumors, will still cause an uproar. Unscrupulous things can make the media boast that a transaction is about to happen.

Then the Magic's remarks only brought the Lakers a fine of 500,000 dollars, and nothing else was seen.

But this is enough. This is just the beginning of the Lakers and Liu Ren's plan.

And it did bring a little impact to the Warriors, giving them their third loss this season. Although it was of little use, it was better than nothing.

With 34 wins and 6 losses, the Lakers continue to maintain the league's second-best record, three wins ahead of the Spurs, which are still under pressure.

And the next opponent the Lakers will challenge away is the Warriors who are now 37 wins and 3 losses.

...

...

The Warriors are also depressed, who provokes anyone, we finally cultivated a backcourt trio, and was actually targeted by the Lakers.

The general manager of the Warriors, Bob Myers, was so sad that it was as sad as the snow.

He felt very sad, thinking that you, the Lakers, have so many super talents, and they are still staring at our "small" team. Although, we got the best start in history, 37 wins and 3 losses. Even the Lakers and Bulls have never played such a start, but it is still too unreasonable!

Of course, Bob Myers didn't know that Curry and Durant had a private connection, otherwise he wouldn't be so worried, maybe he would still be happy to get Durant.

Fortunately, Wharton responded in a timely manner and quickly pacified Barnes. The words to pacify are simple. Even if Barnes is going to a bigger stage in the future or pursuing better development, he has to play well enough this year. Performance, otherwise it won’t be taken seriously if you go to other teams, so after the Warriors lost a game, Barnes’s performance was better.

At this stage, the news that the Lakers are interested in Barnes has actually inspired the Warriors.

...

...

The Lakers and Warriors game is about to begin.

Due to the previous rumors about Harris and the Lakers, in addition to the gimmick of the league's first and league second matchups, the two teams suddenly became a little nervous.

You know that in the past, the Lakers and the Warriors have always been friendly partners. Because the two teams are very close, but they are not so close that they will affect each other's market like the Clippers. The high-level exchanges between the two teams have always been There are many deals, large and small, such as the Green provided by the Warriors to the Lakers and Baezmore who traded to Korver, not only did not create a gap between the management of the two teams, but made the relationship between the two teams more harmonious.

This is a very obvious reason. Since one party has already suffered a loss, if he continues to be friendly, he will definitely return to the last favor next time.

But this time the Lakers reported that they were interested in Barnes, which made the Warriors management a little uncomfortable.

Magic also came to Oakland with the team, and is now using his smile to appease the unhappy Bob Myers.

Don’t say it, the magician’s smile has always been contagious, and this time is no exception. Bob Myers really didn’t have the depressed anger at the beginning, but was still very upset: "Alvin, we Good friends for many years, if you have anything you want to do, you can tell me, you know we have the right to renew Barnes’s parent team, and we can match any contract."

Bob Myers said that there are only three positions that really care about the team. One is the point guard, which is Curry, and the other is the power forward, which is Randall.

If Randall can top the No. 5 position, play a beautiful death five and hold the ball center to organize the attack is the key to the rise of the Warriors, then Curry is the cornerstone of the rise of the Warriors.

In addition, what Bob Myers values ​​most is the position of the team's small forward.

Although it is said that it is the era of rampant small forwards, the three strongest players in the league in the eyes of the major managements of the league are James, Durant, and Liu Ren. James is an absolutely powerful strength, and Durant can improve one. The super scorer with the upper limit of the team, Liu Ren represents the future... and the wealth it brings to a team. The Lakers' income last season surpassed the New York Knicks, relying on Liu Ren’s attention. degree.

And these three players are small forwards.

It seems that small forwards do dominate the league, but in fact, there are not so many high-quality small forwards in the league. The only ones are James of the Cavaliers, Durant of the Thunder, and Leonard of the Spurs. Paul George of the Pacers, Anthony of the Knicks.

There is also Liu Ren of the Lakers.

Apart from these few, Bob Myers can hardly find a better small forward than Barnes. Hayward of the Jazz is one and Jimmy Butler of the Bulls is one.

Can be comparable to or stronger than Barnes, the entire league adds up to less than two hands.

And these small forwards seem to be basically impossible for Bob Myers. No team will release people. He doesn't think his team can attract anyone. After all, no one has expressed it. The idea of ​​going to the Warriors.

So even if the Lakers came out to be interested in Curry, Bob Myers was not so angry. After all, even the super point guard has changed hands in the past two years. The 76ers are almost about to steal Curry to score. Wang's, isn't it just that the 76ers traded it back with a young draft pick and two or three easy first-round and second-round picks.

And the Warriors are the best team for Curry. Bob Myers doesn't believe Curry will leave. He is very confident.

But Barnes is hard to say, Barnes's performance is almost like Sima Zhao's heart, the Warriors management is having a headache, how to keep him.

So then the magician came in person, and Bob Myers didn't give a good look.

"OH, Bob, I'm so sad that you say that. I never said I would **** someone from you." The magician exaggerated.

"Do you think I'll believe it? You didn't take Kenta and Drummond?" Bob Myers began to reiterate.

The Magic also knows that this is Bob Myers who wants to use the favor that the Lakers owed him to dispel his interest in Barnes.

but……

The magician was not interested in Barnes...

"God! Bob, you don't know that Kenta and Drummond can play so well? We don't know either! If we want Harris, I will definitely tell you directly that we want a deal, you know us There are so many talented players who are about to become a burden. How can they get one directly back? If it is also a deal, it will definitely not let you lose! This is what we have been friends for so many years, don't you trust me?" The magician looked like I was hurt.

"Come on, I know you're not at ease, let's talk, what do you want to trade for Harris, if you want to rob me, then please finish coffee and leave." Bob Myers rolled his eyes. He didn't want people yet. He expressed despair. If the Lakers grab Barnes with them in the summer, he really can't do it. If you feel distressed, you will feel distressed, but you must let the Lakers bleed, at least get a bunch of chips. To find the vacancy after Barnes left.

"Bob, I said I am not interested in Harris. We already have a boss. Do you think anyone in the league can replace the boss's dominance at small forwards? He is younger than Harris." The magician rolled his eyes.

Now Bob Myers is a little confused. This smiling Buddha doesn't want Barnes. What are you doing here? Nothing to do at leisure?

"Then who do you want?" Bob Myers is very curious. He doesn't believe that Magic will ask for Curry or Randall. Such a deal will not be considered when the Warriors management receives a call. Just hang up, he believes that the magician will not be so stupid.

But apart from Curry, Randall, and Barnes, what else can enter the magician's eyes? Bob Myers couldn't think of it.

"You know, I've been preparing for things after Kobe retires. Before we went to McCollum." The magician replied.

Hearing Bob Myers’ face twitching, everyone can see McCollum’s strength. It is definitely a top ten or even higher strength among the league’s shooting guards. If there is enough playing time and Opportunities, not too many. Kobe’s playing time and opportunities are needed. It’s not difficult to average 20 points per game. The Blazers actually sent McCollum to the Lakers in a way that was almost for nothing, and directly gave the Lakers a replacement for Kobe. Candidate.

Bob Myers felt that the Lakers were so lucky. After a twitching corner of his mouth, he said, "Alvin, are you here to show off with me?"

"No, no, I think McCollum is not suitable for our future shooting guard requirements, he is a bit too versatile, and we need an off-the-ball player, of course, Harris can also play shooting guard, if you Willing to use Harris in exchange. In addition to providing McCollum, everyone except LaVine, Boss, Antetokounmpo, Green, Whiteside, you can pick anybody else in our team, as long as you have enough space, we all Willing to provide." The magician started to laugh a little bit mean.

Bob Myers is about to roll his eyes again: "After all, you still want Harris. I admit that I am very interested in McCollum. You have also caught my weakness, but you want Harris to avoid talking! McColler M’s salary is not much lower than Harris. Which player can I ask of you after the two of them traded? Whiteside, would you like to give it?"

Bob Myers refused very simply~www.wuxiaspot.com~ But for McCollum... he really wants to win!

What are the Warriors now? Isn't it a player who has the ability to score independently!

The Warriors who can organize the offense are Curry, Iguodala, and Green. The remaining Livingston and Barnes can barely organize the offense, but the organization effect is really average, and Iguodala is not defeated. Steve Kerr is not valued by Barnes. If McCollum is there, there will be a great choice.

McCollum did a great job when he assumed the responsibility of point guard last season. Other teams in the league coveted McCollum, but at that time McCollum was promoted by the Lakers as Kobe’s successor, so other People would rather have better talent, and the more valuable Antetokounmpo would not hit McCollum.

Now that the magician offered to use McCollum as a bargaining chip, Bob Myers really couldn't say so absolutely. He refused altogether, but he still had room.

The magician just smiled and watched Bob Myers not speaking. Anyway, he was not anxious. He believed that Bob Myers would never give up the opportunity to get McCollum.

Catching pitcher... catching pitcher...

Change a shooting guard with the potential of the top five shooting guards in the future, or an all-round shooting guard...

Bob Myers did not say anything at the first time, but he did not come up with a solution at the first time. For a while, the transaction was temporarily stagnated, and neither party was in a hurry, because it is unlikely to want to trade now. The salaries of the two teams have exceeded the salary cap, and the chemistry of both teams is now very good, it is impossible to break the chemistry of both teams immediately, only slowly...
