Pick Westbrook

Chapter 441 The Most Favorable Decision

7 month 19 day.

Hammond just felt like his head was going to explode.

"The hillbilly guys on the Spurs actually want to use Danny Green and Thiago Splitter as the main body and add two first-round picks for Leonard!"

"They are thinking about farting. We will never accept that there are no All-Star players as the main body."

"Do you really think we are desperate for a center without Jordan?"

"Thiago Splitter is not good enough yet."

"The Heat gave a deal with Bosh as the main body, but there was only one first-round pick. We lost too much."

"Moreover, Bosh was diagnosed with a blood clot in his calf this summer. The good news is that his life is not in danger. The bad news is that his basketball career may be affected."

"Although Bosh's blood coagulation degree is not very high, and the blood is not so easy to form a large area of ​​clots, there is no need to worry about his basketball career in a few years, but it is a hidden danger after all."

"And there's a clear overlap between Bosh and Anthony Davis."

"The local rich men of the New York Knicks are rich and powerful. First of all, they are the main body of the double All-Stars of Amare Stoudemire + Jeremy Lin. They also said that the first-round pick can be negotiated. Pelicans."

"But Amare Stoudemire's contract has become a rubbish contract. Is it possible that Jeremy Lin wants to start with Paul when he arrives in the team?"

"Moreover, the salary of this trading plan is too difficult to balance. I'm afraid it will take a four-way deal to implement it."

After all, Leonard still has the rookie bonus contract for the last year. Thinking about the salary of 500 million but having the strength of FMVP, such a player is a great temptation for any championship team.

Hammond couldn't help but looked at Li Lai and said, "None of the next teams appointed by Leonard's team has a bargaining chip that we can look up to."

"Besides, why do we have to meet their demands?"

"It was Leonard's team who took the initiative to apply for the trade. Could it be possible to specify where to go?"

Li said: "Leonard's team is not a fool. They only have a one-year contract guarantee. If that team is not what they want to go to, they will not have a commitment to stay on the team."

"When the time comes to pat their ass and leave, which team would dare to take such a risk?"

Hammond seemed to think of something and said: "It's not that no team is willing to take such a risk. Uncle Ka made a high-profile statement on social media that Leonard wants to go to the next team, but there are still other players." The team offered me a trade offer, and it was very tempting."

Li Lai turned his head to look at Hammond curiously. He bent down and said softly, "The Raptors and the Cavaliers."

The core chip of the Raptors is the 09 rookie DeRozan, who is in the same class as Curry and Harden.

Last season, DeRozan has averaged 23 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists per game, and his mid-range singles ability is extremely strong.

In addition, it also comes with Jonas Valanciunas, the No. 11 pick in 5, plus 2 first-round picks and 1 second-round pick.

More importantly, in order to balance the contract, the Raptors indicated that they are willing to accept Lewis' final year's negative equity contract.

DeRozan, who is also good at mid-range singles, Jonas Valanciunas, who was specially traded to fill Jordan's vacancy, and Lewis, who is willing to accept negative equity.

The Northern Raptors can be said to be full of sincerity.

In addition to the Raptors, another sincerity is the Cavaliers.

The core bargaining chip they give is Andrew Wiggins, the No. 10 pick in this year's favorite, who is said to be seen once in [-] years.

Because of the rookie trade protection regulations, newly drafted rookies are not allowed to transfer within 30 days after signing, so the Cavaliers hope to be able to trade one month later.

Because the Cavaliers' management knows very well that a Wiggins cannot win Leonard, so they want to raise as much chips as possible during this period.

However, the subject of the transaction has roughly come out, Dion Waiters + Andrew Wiggins, and several draft picks.

Hammond said: "In addition to the Raptors and Cavaliers, the Clippers and Rockets also want Leonard."

"Dog Mona is mentally retarded, so ignore him, it's here to take advantage again."

"The chips given by the Clippers are Eric Gordon + Matt Barnes. They only have one first-round pick, but they are also willing to take over Lewis's garbage contract, and the team's four second-round picks willing to give."

"The most important thing is that Los Angeles is Leonard's hometown, as well as Uncle Card's hometown. I heard that the two have now moved to Los Angeles, and the Clippers have frequent contact with them."

Li Lai thought for a while in silence.

The Clippers have snatched Jordan in the offseason. If they can win Leonard again, it will be the combination of Leonard + Jordan + White Warcraft Griffin, which is indeed very strong in the West.

Among them, the trade plans of the Cavaliers and Raptors are more acceptable to him.

The other teams, because of Leonard's team's preference and Uncle Ka's high-profile publicity, obviously did not fully exert their strength.

Therefore, the trading chips given are not very satisfactory.

Hammond said: "Although no matter how we look at it, we will lose money trading Leonard, but we must always get the maximum benefit."

"Uncle Ka's declaration at this time really scared off many teams and caused us a lot of trouble."

Li Lai frowned slightly, this is how many times he has been bored with Uncle Ka.

This kind of person who thinks he is very smart, other than thinking about taking advantage of others, is actually not very smart.

Li Lai said seriously: "The Pelicans' three consecutive championships cannot be disrupted by anyone. I will choose the most beneficial decision for the team this season!"
