Rebirth of My Rocket Dynasty

Chapter 62 Taking advantage of the Jazz (Part [-])
At nine o'clock the next morning, the Jazz's staff took Tiger and Dawson to the Jazz's office on time.

Lao Tang has been sent directly to Denver by Tiger's private jet to prepare for the game against Denver.

All did not come with Tiger and his party.

Seeing the arrival of Tiger and his party, Scott Layden stepped forward to welcome them.

"Mr. Tiger, please sit down, I heard that you just reached a deal with the Grizzlies, using Osella Harrington and a first-round pick in 98 plus some cash in exchange for No. 97 in 4 Rookie Antonio Daniels, are you optimistic about this rookie in 97?" Scott Layden was obviously very concerned about the deal situation of the Rockets, and hoped to be of some help to the negotiations for a while.

"Hehe, yes, we just reached a transfer agreement with the Grizzlies. We are very satisfied with this transaction. We are very optimistic about the future of Daniels. I think this transaction will be beneficial to our upcoming negotiations. Helpful, after all, everyone has a goal to compare with each other." Tiger gave a very meaningful explanation to the curious Scott Layden.

Scott Layden is also quite a shrewd person, upon hearing this, he just smiled and nodded.

Everyone exchanged pleasantries for a while before entering today's topic.

Scott Layden took the lead in saying: "Mr. Tiger, we hope to exchange Greg Ostertag for Shandon Anderson, but since Ostertag's salary this year is already $640 million, and Shandon Anderson is just a two-year $120 contract, and we hope the Rockets can add a few other players for exchange."

As soon as this remark came out, Tiger laughed at that time.

Looking at the laughing Tiger, Scott Raiden couldn't hold back his face.

So, he said, "Why, Mr. Tiger doesn't approve of this transaction." His tone was obviously dissatisfied.

"Okay, Mr. Layden, tell me, you want those players from the Rockets." Tiger waved his hand and said.

Scott Layden looked at Tiger with a smile on his face, and stabilized his emotions and said: "According to the salary structure of the Rockets, we want to get the coach, Saulius, Shandon Anderson, and Ray Allen. part of the cash in exchange."

Hearing this list, the smile on Tiger's face became more obvious, and the sarcasm became more and more serious.

Even Dawson on one side shook his head and smiled bitterly. Looking at the young man under 40 years old, he really didn't know how he chose Malone and Stockton.

"Hehe, Mr. Scott, I don't know who gave you your plan. I can only say that that person is too whimsical. Let's talk about the people you mentioned. Bus, height: 6 feet 11. Weight: about 310 pounds, born in 75, in the NBA for more than one season, the statistics are not conspicuous, but you should know that he scored 27 points, 11 rebounds and 5 assists in the game against Washington today After the game, the general manager of Washington directly called me and asked me to trade him. The maximum salary should not exceed 550 million, and the contract period is 5 million for 2800 years. You actually want to trade him like this Let’s talk about Saulius, a guy who has the potential of being the best perimeter defender in the league. Three teams have proposed a deal. Do you know what the highest price is? I’ll tell you it’s 440 million, and the contract period is The total value in 4 years is 1760 million. Let’s talk about Ray Allen. Now there are no less than ten teams interested in Ray Allen. Do you know that after the end of this season, we will give Ray Allen What kind of contract is offered? Tell you how much? Tell you, it is a 6-year contract worth 7500 million. You want to rob it now. Does your Jazz management take it for granted? Don Anderson has also been consulted by four teams. The value of the contract is basically around 3 million for 900 years. You are like a 640 million, 7-foot-2, clumsy big man who gets 4 next year's total value 2500 million players. I don't know, is your brain wrong, or my brain is wrong." Tiger was so angry that his voice became louder and louder, and finally he was almost roaring.

Now Tiger felt more and more that the person opposite him was an idiot, no wonder he did so poorly in the Knicks.

In the Jazz, Tiger reckoned that this kid could only stand with someone tall behind him.

With these words, Scott Layden who said it directly blushed.

In fact, it's not that he doesn't know, but he just thinks that the young man in front of him may not be a person who knows basketball, so he wants to bluff it.

If you can bluff it, you can take advantage of it.

However, he didn't expect that the financial wizard opposite him was also an excellent basketball manager.

This proposal of his own is self-defeating.

At this time, Dawson stood up to smooth things over. As a manager who has worked in the NBA for many years, Dawson can still control such a scene.

"Okay, okay, boss, I think this is also an idea or plan of Mr. Scott, just for your reference, these things can still be discussed, am I right? Mr. Scott." Dawson Let Tiger sit down first, and gesture for Tiger to suppress his anger.

Scott Layden is also a man of many events.

Immediately said: "Yes, Mr. Tiger, this is just a proposal, don't you want to be so angry, you sit down first, you sit down first." Things can be done, but it depends on who you offend.Thinking about the boss in front of me, there are not many people in the United States who can offend him. Just the three major investment funds under this man can control the financial market of the whole country.

In his own hands, he holds the shares of more than a dozen large companies in the United States, and his net worth is even more amazing.

Slowly suppressing his anger, Tiger slowly sat down on his chair.

After calming down, he said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Scott, I was a little agitated just now, please forgive me." Tiger took the initiative to apologize.

"It's nothing, it's nothing, it's inevitable, it's inevitable, are we negotiating?" Scott Ryan said with a smile.

"Well, since the two sides are negotiating, how about we propose a plan, and you can study it." Tiger also made his own request.

"Oh, then please ask Mr. Tiger to bring it up, let's refer to it." Scott Layden didn't dare to underestimate Tiger now.

"Our plan is like this. We use Shanton Anderson plus some cash in exchange for a first-round pick of the Jazz in 99. What do you think?" Tiger proposed his own plan.

As soon as this plan was proposed, Scott Layden fell into deep thought.

I calculated it myself, the Jazz had 99 first picks in 3, and I can definitely use a late draft pick to get Shandon Anderson, a powerful player.

According to my own estimation, as long as Anderson is given time to average 12+6 per game, it can be achieved. In addition, Shandon Anderson's defense is also extremely good.

And as the three elders of Utah are getting old, the Jazz's successor needs to be replenished.

Young players like Shanton, who have experienced the brutal finals of the past year, will be the main force for the Jazz's future reconstruction.

Shandon Anderson is definitely an underrated player, and this plan is totally feasible.

After thinking for a long time, Scott Layden said: "Mr. Tiger, your plan is very convincing, but I can only sell a relatively late 99 draft pick, and we will not sell the early one. "

Tiger recalled, Utah's pick in the 99 draft.

After considering it for a while, he said, "Mr. Scott, how about this, we each take a step back, I want your second pick in the first round, we don't want the first one, do you think it's okay?"

Scott Layden thought for a moment and said: "Yes, if there is no problem, we will draft the contract according to your plan."

"Okay, I have no opinion, it's totally fine." Tiger stood up from the chair, stretched out his hand and shook Scott Raiden's hand, expressing his agreement.

Scott Layden quickly got up and held Tiger's hand and said, "Okay, Mr. Tiger, we have no objections."

The following is the matter of the staff of both parties.

The decision makers on both sides relaxed at this time.

Dawson and Scott Layden were chatting happily on the sidelines.

Tiger sat quietly aside.Sipping tea quietly.

Thoughts have drifted to nowhere.

After about an hour or so, the staff of both sides drafted the work contract.

The managers of both sides signed the contract.

When Tiger left the Jazz's office building, he suddenly turned around and said to Scott Layden: "Mr. Scott, the plan you proposed today is not your wish, what I want to say is that as the manager of the Jazz At any time, you must put your own team first, the Rockets hope to cooperate with anyone who is willing to be friends, and the Rockets are never afraid of any opponent no matter who it is, are you right?" Then He glanced at Scott Layden with a half-smile, turned around, got in the car and left.

Watching the convoy gradually going away, Scott Layden murmured to himself: "Such people can only be friends and not enemies. We can't afford to provoke such a person. Whoever wants to provoke anyone, Anyway, it has nothing to do with us." Then he smiled self-deprecatingly, turned and left.

After resting overnight in Salt Lake City, Tiger and Dawson headed east to Indiana.

There was another walker waiting for them there.

At this time, the Rockets, who were far away in the Denver plateau, encountered tenacious resistance at the Mike Nichols Arena, Denver's home court.

丹佛主场7人上双，可是他们遇见的一个爆发的加内特，凭借着加内特的35分17个篮板的成绩和雷·阿伦最后8.8秒的三分球，火箭116：115绝杀了丹佛掘金。

The Rockets have won 9 consecutive victories after this victory.

The Rockets are proud of the league with a total score of 25 wins and 2 losses.
