Super Lord of the Rings

Skiles spoke of his plans. "I want to find two veterans, Brian Grant and Doug Christie in free agency."

"Why?" Paxon didn't understand. "These two people's state has declined very badly. It won't help the team's record if they come here?"

"I think it's helpful. Now the Bulls players are too young. Wang Jun is in the third grade. He is very daring to talk. Have you read the news? He wants to compete for the scoring champion and win the championship..." Skiles said with a wry smile.

Paxon nodded. He watched the news and felt that Wang Jun's words were too casual.

It's nice to have big goals, but it doesn't have to be said every time. Some words, it is easy to "make enemies" inexplicably.

For example, a person with a salary of 10,000 a month will take the initiative to tell a person with a salary of 1,000 how much money he has paid and how little he has worked.

For example, a handsome guy told single dogs that his girlfriend is very beautiful, and changed one after another...

In the same way, a young man like Wang Jun who already has a championship ring often shouts to win the championship, which will disgust some veterans who have not won the championship, and even disgust the media that praise these veterans.

"Are you afraid that other people will follow him? Young people should be more calm."

"Wang Jun will be a good leader on the court, but in the locker room, his self-confidence may make people feel uncomfortable. And he is strong by himself, it is difficult to teach his teammates. Find two veterans, one inside and one outside Bringing in newcomers is definitely good for the players, especially David Lee."

Paxson said with a smile: "I see, David Lee is not good at defense, it would be better to find someone to teach him, right?"

"That's right."

"Wait for the news, it is estimated that it will be completed in a day."

The first three years or the first two years of a rookie are crucial, and the environment in which they grow up can easily shape their future career.

If you develop a habit of loose defense on a bad team that doesn't defend. In the future, it may be lazy to attack the strong and defend the weak.

If you are in a team with iron blood defense, even if you leave, you may still be iron blood. Defensively.

Of course, it may also be like Milicic. In a team where the coach doesn't like to use newcomers, it may be abolished directly. With Brown gone this season, Milicic still doesn't get a chance to perform, and it's hard to get rid of the second place title.

Patterson thought that Skiles would offer to trade a strong man, at least a potential insider. He studied the situation of each team and thought that the only one that could be exchanged without costing much was Milicic.

The head coach is not interested. He didn't suggest it, anyway, there were already new insiders in the team.

Trading for a veteran is easy.

Ocella Harrington had good statistics in the game. Paxson took this opportunity to contact the Suns manager, hoping to make a deal, and use Ocella in exchange for the Suns veteran Brian Grant.

The deal looked stupid because Grant was already stuck.

In the summer of 2000, Grant signed a big contract with the Heat, worth 86 million in seven years. Last season, his data dropped to 3.8 points and 3.7 rebounds. The Lakers waived him in the summer with a free clause, thereby saving nearly $30 million in luxury taxes.

The Suns used a veteran's basic salary to recruit Grant. The substitute can only play about 6 minutes per game, which is useless.

The Suns are too weak in the frontcourt this year. Stoudemire underwent minimally invasive surgery and is likely to be reimbursed for the season. Their starting center is Kurt Thomas. Marion started at power forward and James Jones at small forward.

As soon as he heard that the Bulls would send Osella just for another veteran + cash, the Suns manager agreed without saying a word.

For Osella with good physical fitness, the weak insider can be a little stronger, at least he can substitute Thomas and Marion for a while, and it will not become an obvious loophole.

The Bulls got veteran Grant, and the purpose of providing valuable experience was achieved. His spirit is worth learning for newcomers. Back then, he was recognized as an iron-blooded forward and defensive champion. This is exactly what David Lee lacks. He is not just a substitute, but also an assistant coach.

Paxson also waived non-guaranteed recruit Eddie Baston. Doug Christie was introduced to the team with a veteran's basic salary, which went very well.

Christie, 35, after leaving the Kings. Suddenly reduced to the point where there is no ball to play, he is very happy to join the Bulls, not for making money, but because he wants to mix rings at the end of his career.

Christie's most promising team this year is the Spurs, and the Spurs don't want him. The Bulls have a very small chance of winning the championship, which is better than nothing.

Because he was bought out by the Magic, the Bulls only need to pay the veteran's basic salary. Although Baston is cheap, he is really useless in the team, with poor shooting and average defensive awareness.

Even if Christie can't score a point, he can still play a little role on the defensive end, and his passing ability has always been underestimated. He still averaged 3.8 per game last season and averaged more than 4 assists per game in four seasons in his career. His career averages are 11.2 points, 4.1 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.9 steals.

The two went through physicals together in Chicago and then officially reported to the team. Because it was a small transaction, there was no resistance.

Skiles talked to the two to clarify his ideas. They have the right to speak in the locker room, and they also teach experience in daily training.

The two agreed, this is an unspoken rule of NBA veterans holding their legs, to pass on what they are good at.

On the 10th, the Bulls played against the Jazz at home.

Wang Jun met Christie in the locker room and greeted him cordially.

"I'm glad you can come. Kidd has always admired your defensive ability. I also hope to learn from you."

Christie smiled and said, "Wang, I've read the news about you, and I came here because you have the confidence to win the championship."

"Oh? Don't you think I'm talking big?" Wang Jun was a little proud.

This feeling is so good, the news often said that he hugged Kidd's thigh, and now he has finally upgraded to "thigh".

Christie said with a smile: "When we were in the Kings, we were very low-key and didn't dare to call for the championship. In the end, we didn't win the championship. You played very well on the court. I think your confidence comes from your ability."

Christie supports Wang Jun. He has reached the age of retirement, and he has not benefited from keeping a low profile for too long. He wanted to see if teaming up with a madman would have a better result.

Skiles hasn't come to the dressing room yet, and he must be dizzy if he hears their conversation.

The purpose of finding the old future is to teach Wang Jun not to talk nonsense, but now Christie follows Wang Jun's thinking and supports his remarks.

Skiles was not a superstar when he played, but a good team player. He has never been arrogant, even if he has a historical data of 30 assists in a single game.

In fact, superstars are mostly arrogant, which is a kind of temperament.

For example, Michael Jordan, Bird, and Kobe, the disobedience of no one made them progress and made them strong.

As the start approached, Wang Jun clapped his hands in the locker room and shouted: "Everyone, I heard that Boozer can't play against the Jazz today. If their inside partners are Ostertag and Okur, please give me more. Pass the ball. I'm far behind in scoring, this is a good chance, I want to catch up!"

The two players who just came to report were happy.

Doesn't it make it clear that you need to brush the data?

Also has super scoring*, in the Lakers, Grant has never seen Kobe do this.

But some teammates responded. Hinrich smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll pass it on to you if I have the chance."

Chandler also said: "As long as I'm there, I'll cover for you."

"Thank you!" (To be continued.)
