The King of the NBA

Hearing Yao Ming's words, Ning Yi couldn't help being shocked. He hadn't thought about it, but after thinking about it carefully, he also felt that Le Fu's leadership was not very good.

Leadership ability, this kind of thing is actually very strange. It has something to do with personal ability, but it has no absolute relationship. There are many players with outstanding personal ability, but leadership ability is lacking.

However, even if Love lacks leadership skills, he is the boss of the team after all, and Ning Yi is not. What he has a headache now is how to get along with Love?

"Hehe." Yao Ming said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about this at all, and you don't have to think about who is the boss of the team. Let me tell you, who is the boss of the team is not up to Love, nor is it You have the final say, but the team management has the final say. If the management thinks Love should be the boss, then he is the boss. If the team thinks you can be the boss, then Love also has to give in. If not, He has to go."

"Coach Adelman must be clear about the problem between you and Love, and he will report it to the management. I believe the management will make a decision soon."

After speaking, Yao Ming paused for a while, and said again: "But I don't think the management will favor you, nor Le Fu. The biggest possibility is to make you the same as Le Fu."

Ning Yi was stunned, and said strangely: "Let me be the same as Le Fu, what do you mean?"

Yao Ming laughed, McGrady opened his mouth and explained: "It means that Love is still the core of the team, and you will also be the core of the team. Don't be so surprised, this is normal. You see, Yao and I were in the Rockets. I am not the absolute leader, neither is Yao, but we can coexist.”

Ning Yi was suddenly stunned and couldn't help nodding his head. Coexisting like Yao Ming and Mai Di might be a solution, and for himself, this is also the best result.

In fact, it was just as Yao Ming expected.

While Ning Yi was talking with Yao Ming and McGrady, Adelman was also negotiating with the Timberwolves management.

For the Timberwolves, Love cannot give up. His strength is beyond doubt. For now, no one in the Timberwolves can match Love. But Ning Yi also can't give up. In the eyes of Timberwolves management, Ning Yi is a "baby". Will be inferior to Love.

The point is that Ning Yi and the Timberwolves only have a one-year contract. Even if the Timberwolves want to abandon Ning Yi, they are not qualified, they will only be abandoned by Ning Yi.

"If our handling of this matter cannot satisfy Ning, he may leave when the contract expires." A senior manager of the Timberwolves said: "We only have a one-year contract with him. If Ning chooses to leave, We don't even have the ability to keep him, because some teams outside want to take advantage of the fire, and they will only offer higher contracts than us, and they will definitely promise Ning to make him the absolute core of the team."

"yes."

"Once Ning chooses to leave, we will get nothing."

"Frankly speaking, I think Ning is more charismatic than Love. And he has such outstanding strength, such a person will not be willing to always submit to others."

Everyone opened their mouths and expressed their opinions.

Timberwolves president Philip Saunders listened, frowning, lost in thought.

Love is the core of the Timberwolves, the trump card, but what others said is not false. Ning Yi is a piece of jade in the rough, and has begun to show its light. This is absolutely impossible to let go. If Ning Yi leaves, he Philip- Sanders can't afford it either. He is very clear that the boss is very satisfied with Ning Yi and is full of praise.

Seeing that, Sanders even felt that even if Love was sent away, the boss would not abandon Ning Yi.

As for why, Philip Saunders can also guess that it must be for the huge Chinese market behind Ning Yi. Ning Yi not only brought a record to the Timberwolves, but also brought huge commercial benefits.

Ning Yi's commercial value is much greater than that of Le Fu.

After thinking for a while, Philip Sanders looked at Adelman and asked, "Coach Adelman, what do you think we should do about this matter?"

Everyone who was discussing also stopped, Qiqi looked at Adelman.

Adelman said: "Love is an excellent player and is indispensable to our team. But at the same time, Ning is also an excellent player and cannot be lacking. As a coach, I don't want this to affect Ning. The relationship with Love affects the overall unity of the team. As for how to solve it? This is your business."

Philip Sanders smiled wryly, but it is understandable that Adelman, as the coach of the team, is not good whether he favors Love or Ning Yi. Although there are not many people sitting here, Adelman wants to say something , Sooner or later, it will spread, and it will also reach the ears of Le Fu and Ning Yi, so he simply does not express subjective opinions.

At this time, everyone looked at Philip Sanders.

Facing the eyes of everyone, Philip Sanders smiled slightly and said: "Love is the core of the team. There is no doubt about it. He has such strength. But I think Ning also has such strength. Although he is just a He is a rookie, but his performance has surpassed all rookies. If he is placed in any team, he will be cultivated as the core of the future. We cannot let him bury such an outstanding player, and we should give him corresponding treatment.”

"So." Philip Sanders said: "I think Ning and Love can both become the core of the team. Isn't it the same with Yao Ming and Tracy of the Rockets?"

Adelman smiled and said, "I agree, there's nothing wrong with it. Not only the Rockets, but other teams also have this kind of precedent. One team has two core players, it's nothing."

"Okay." Sanders made a decision: "That's it."

Everyone agreed.

This matter is actually somewhat against the rules. After all, Ning Yi is just a rookie. Although he is very good, in terms of strength, he is still inferior to Love.

As for seniority, it's not a problem. The NBA is all about strength. If you have strength, there is no problem with seniority.

However, Ning Yi and the Timberwolves only have a one-year contract, and there is a big Chinese market behind him, which is deeply loved by the Timberwolves boss. This is the key.

What's more, the tiebreaker with the Rockets, the problem between Ning Yi and Love, this matter has already happened, and it is the best way to deal with it this way.

After the meeting was over, Adelman was sent to talk to Love, and Philip Sanders went to report to the boss. In fact, it was just a process, and the Timberwolves boss would definitely agree.
