The God of Basketball

"It's the God of Basketball ()" Find the latest chapter!

June 24, 2010 is the day when the NBA Draft will be held.

Frankly speaking, this year is a standard draft year. The Washington Wizards with the No. 1 pick in their hands are all rumored to be making a deal.

However, for the media, today is a memorable day. It will kick off a wave of summer transfers.

Everyone is waiting for the league structure to set off earth-shaking changes this summer.

The adrenaline-pumping gossip has already set fans' hearts agitated.

Hurry up!

Let the deal come more violently.

Li Zhen sat calmly in the draft war room of the Clippers, and Isiah Thomas was sitting next to him.

Isaiah Thomas finally came out, because he was confirmed by Li Zhen that Li Zhen would join the Clippers. And earlier, the league had announced that Jack Lee had become the Clippers' second shareholder.

So, he decided to appear here as an advisor.

It doesn't matter if it's money or not, the main reason is to gain some reputation here.

Anyway, the Knicks now have to give him a pre-tax salary of $12 million a year until 2014.

"Hasn't Minnesota given accurate information yet?"

Li Zhen asked Thomson.

Thomson replied: "They are still hesitating now. They think the No. 3 pick may surprise them."

Li Zhen turned his head to the side: "Call the Pacers. It doesn't have to be the No. 4 pick."

at this time.

Jingle Bell!

The phone rang quickly, and the Timberwolves agreed to a trade between Baron Davis and Baron Davis after weighing the matter.

A team like the Timberwolves is destined not to attract superstars. Therefore, Baron Davis, a former All-Star, still makes sense to them.

Moreover, they really want to clean up the contract burden of the second place in parallel imports.

As a result, a deal was reached at the same time that David Stern announced that John Wall would become the No. 1 pick.

The Clippers sent Baron Davis and got the No. 4 pick from the Minnesota Timberwolves, as well as the famous parallel imports No. 2 Dakomilicic and Damien Wilkins.

This deal is equivalent to the Clippers providing the Timberwolves with an experienced former All-Star plus locker room leader.

The Timberwolves offer a No. 4 pick in a draft year, plus clean up two junk contracts.

When the draft expert Chatford learned of the deal, he immediately announced: This is not a win-win deal, or a new attempt by two bad teams tired of their own situation. Neither success nor failure matters because there is little point.

The jibes grew harsher as the Clippers used the Timberwolves' No. 4 pick to take 20-year-old white sophomore guard Gordon Hayward.

"I can't figure out why the Clippers made such a choice. He can obviously choose Cousins ​​​​who has more potential. Monroe and Udo are also perfect options. Why choose a thin white guard? Not every Anyone can be Ginobili."

Chatford was taken aback by the Clippers' pick on TV.

But soon, the focus of the discussion was blurred by a sudden shocking exchange.

The Toronto Raptors and the New York Knicks have reached a sign-and-trade deal for Chris Bosh.

Chris Bosh successfully signed a six-year, $125 million contract.

The Knicks sent Zach Randolph and Matt Barnes.

The day is still here.

The throwing of this shocking deal announced to the world that the two-time championship winner started an unprecedented rebuilding operation.

When Li Zhen heard the news, he was very calm.

Zach and Matt Barnes to the Toronto Raptors?

They won't be there for long.

Li Zhen thought so in his heart.

Sure enough, afterward, the Memphis Grizzlies made a three-way deal with the Toronto Raptors and the Golden State Warriors... In this deal that designed 7 players and 4 draft picks,

Zach Randolph went to the Grizzlies. Matt Barnes goes to Golden State. The Raptors got 2 first-round picks and $3 million in cash.

The Raptors didn't lose anyway.

They are not under any big contracts.

Golden State and Memphis also got what they needed.

Only... The two careerists of the New York Knicks scolded the straight girl thief. Chris Bosh's contract is undoubtedly a huge salary burden, and it also means that no matter who comes next, he has to be equal to Bosh treatment.

Three billion-dollar contracts for one team.

In 2010, the rich and powerful New York Knicks may be able to afford it.

Tian is not in pain for the cub seller.

Isiah Thomas sighed when he heard the deal.

Such a good foundation, such an excellent salary space, was wasted.

Chris Bosh, an All-Star who has never proven himself, can get an average maximum salary of 20 million? Isn't Zach better than him?

Li Zhen has long been indifferent.

At this time, the Clippers also picked Paul George with the 8th overall pick.

George was very excited when he learned that he was selected by the Clippers. Although his first choice is the Los Angeles Lakers, it is still his hometown team. It is the dream of every NBA player to play in his hometown.

However, this made Indiana's Larry Bird depressed for a while, he didn't expect the Clippers to cut the beard. This was originally Larry Bird's favorite player!

So, he immediately called to seek a deal from the Clippers.

But Li Zhen did not agree. Instead, Thomson asked him: "Are you interested in getting Chris Kaman?"

Chris Kaman is a standard center, and he still has an elite level.

So, Big Bird was excited.

Since the Clippers put on a sale gesture, a consensus was quickly reached.

The Clippers want Dengtai Jones, a top-ten protected pick in the first round of next year, plus a $4 million trade exception.

It's such a bargain.

Larry Bird didn't even think about it, he agreed directly, and announced immediately, for fear that the Clippers would go back on their word.

The Clippers regret it.

The Clippers are now resolutely implementing Li Zhen's rejuvenation strategy. An old-fashioned bulky ball-occupying center like Chris Kaman, send it away.

And, most importantly.

Li Zhen always has a feeling. The 2011 Pacers pick is worth a lot! !

But he didn't know where the value was.

All in all, a deal was done and announced quickly.

Immediately afterwards, under the command of Li Zhen, Thomson peddled another center of the team, defensive giant Marcus Camby.

Soon, you will get a buyer.

With Greg Oden once again in the operating room, the Blazers have to plan ahead.

Marcus Camby became their best option in the draft market.

In the end, they sent point guard Blake, small forward Outlaw and 1.5 million cash.

The deal was done quickly.

No one expected that on draft night, the Clippers would make the most trade moves. And... a super decisive way to start rebuilding.

Baron Davis, Marcus Camby, and Chris Kaman, three veteran veterans, were all sent away.

Is this to clear cap space for James?

There is speculation outside.

The Clippers did not respond.

They picked a random power forward at No. 57 to finish the final move. This is also dispensable to them, and they will not sign the contract anyway.

At this point, the basic lineup of the Clippers has begun to take shape.

DeAndre Jordan, Blake Griffin, Eddie Griffin, Milicic... These are the four major insiders of the Clippers. These four have their own strengths, and they are all talented players. They can currently maintain a strength above the average level of the league.

On the front line: El Thornton, Dunta Jones, Outlaw, Smith, Novak, Hayward, Paul George.

There is only one point guard, Steve Blake, who was just traded.

Li Zhen glanced at the list.

There is still a deal to be done.

There is a lot of overlap between the forwards and the backs.

However, there is no rush now.

This kind of small-scale transaction is easy to happen. The point is that the group of forwards and guards owned by the Clippers all have skills and are easy to trade: the best deal is to take what they need and make up for it.

Now, Li Zhen has the intention of watching the fire from the other side.

He would like to see how this big play in Xia Tian will continue.

"I'm going to Saipan for vacation tomorrow, and I'll stay there for about a month to be with my family."

Li Zhen said to Isiah Thomas.

"Tomorrow, the team will officially announce your joining."

"In the press conference, you can take responsibility for these transactions. I believe the questioning will turn into praise tonight."

Li Zhen said to Thomas before leaving.

The smiling assassin raised his chin slightly, which was his habitual pretentious action, and he felt... everything came back.

Only Thomson didn't know it: Bruce was doing it, and Thomas had been searching for photos of macho men on his mobile phone. How could it be Isiah's handwriting?

This is the tacit understanding between Li Chen and Thomas.

Li Zhen didn't want to explain the red tape, let alone the logic of the transaction.

He just does things intuitively.

Moreover, the spotlight made him resist.

Therefore, the best candidate is of course Isiah Thomas.

Otherwise, why would the team spend millions of dollars on him.

Isaiah is happy with this job, he likes to pretend.

...

The second day after the draft came to an end. The Boston Celtics announced the completion of contract extensions with Ray Allen and Paul Pierce, and the Dallas Mavericks also completed contract extensions with Nowitzki.

These players who entered the league in the late 1990s have a strong imprint of the times, and they have no concept of switching to Rufeng.

It's just... things are changing in Miami.

Some media pointed out that Dwyane Wade intends to return to his hometown team and keep pace with Derrick Rose.

Dwyane Wade's agent is actually Bosh's agent, and he was there to talk about Wade's intention to change to a new environment.

This annoyed Pat Riley greatly.

Only then did he know that he had been stolen from the back door.

Then.

The fortune teller showed his ability as a super operator, in the case of Chris Bosh's fumble. He directly threw the olive branch to Amare Stoudemire.

Stoudemire announced that he would join Miami with a five-year salary of $100 million.

This time, Pat Riley took the initiative.

He even said directly to the media: "If Dwyane needs to change the environment, I am even willing to provide him with the conditions of signing first and then changing."

However, he told Phil Jackson in private: "If you want Dwyane Wade, you have to trade Marc Gasol!"

The old fox is worthy of being an old fox.

With Stoudemire and Gasol Jr., the Heat have begun to take shape as a strong team.

It can still attract LeBron James to join, even if LeBron James does not come, it can also create problems for New York in the East.

The point is.

In addition to Marc Gasol, he also wants Francisco, Eric Gordon, and Dragic.

Because only the addition of all these people can match Wade's annual salary of 20 million.

This is to hollow out the Knicks' original team.

As we all know, the strength of the Knicks is because they have an elite lineup of all members, plus a strong inside line and a legendary commander.

Now, Stoudemire plus Gasol, will it be worse than Zach Randolph plus Gasol?

Plus Dragic, Eric Gordon, Francisco.

James may not come to Miami.

Phil Jackson and Jerry West were defeated.

They quickly sent a signal to the James team.

James never lets up.

This put the two into a difficult situation.

At the same time, their "old rival", Isiah Thomas, who has always been hovering in the shadow of New York, announced in Los Angeles that he would join the Clippers.

And, he told the media: "That's right. Last night's trade and draft were all made by me."

"Look at the current lineup of the Clippers. No team is stronger than us. We can even organize two completely different starting teams."

Isiah Thomas flies with confidence on TV.

really.

Those TV commentators, basketball experts have turned.

He turned to brag: "It is indeed the work of Isiah Thomas."

"Smiling Assassin's technique of vacating cages and changing birds is invincible in the world. When others are still thinking about seeking super deals, he has secretly built a powerful team for the Clippers."

"Jordan, the two Griffins, Milicic... Is this another set of super insiders?"

"Look at their forward and defensive line. The salary is reasonable, the offense and defense are matched, and the strength is strong. I should have understood that only Isiah can complete such a situation!!"

"..."

All of a sudden, there were praises everywhere.

Of course, the media has more questions to focus on.

"Will Bruce join the Los Angeles Clippers?"

Recently, many media have photographed Li Chen appearing in Los Angeles. Moreover, his super Chinese-style building has begun to take shape after a year of construction, and it is estimated that it will be officially put into use in a year and a half.

Moreover, the news that Jack Lee holds a stake in the Clippers has always caused heated discussions in the league. Everyone is guessing that the Clippers will be Li Zhen's next home.

It's just that Li Zhen never accepts interviews.

So, the question can only be thrown to Isiah Thomas.

Thomas replied calmly: "For this question, my answer is no comment."

"I just want to say. We've never pursued anyone, and we're not superstitious about building a team with superstars. In my basketball philosophy, the team...is the most important thing."

Thomas is still talking to himself.

But his appearance has greatly stimulated the two careerists in New York.

Watching Thomas start to build a strong team again, Phil Jackson and Jerry West are impatient.

They finally made a decision, deal!

Thus, a blockbuster transaction was born.

At the same time, LeBron James also announced that he will conduct an unprecedented televised broadcast to announce his decision.

The turmoil of summer has finally come to its climax!
