NBA: Trading Westbrook at the beginning shocked Lao Zhan

"Hey, Mr. Carlisle, I'm Lin Fei!"

When the phone was dialed, Lin Fei took the initiative to speak.

At this time, Carlisle was sitting in the Pacers office discussing the transaction with the management, and he was a little surprised to see Lin Fei calling.

"Lin Fei? What's the matter with you?"

Lin Fei didn't beat around the bush, but said straight to the point: "I called you to make a deal with the Pacers!"

Carlisle frowned when he heard Lin Fei's words: "A deal?"

"Yes, deal, I have a good way to make us win-win and help you complete the reconstruction."

Carlisle raised his eyebrows: "Oh?"

"Mr. Lin Fei, we need young people with potential for reconstruction, and the Deckard and Gary Clark you signed before performed well. If you want to trade them, I can talk to you."

Since Dyke, Gary Clark and Gabriel were signed by Lin Fei, their performance has become better and better. Lin Fei also quickly converted their short-term contracts into basic salary contracts!
Such a young man with a low salary and a great role has indeed attracted the covetousness of many people, including Carlisle.

Lin Fei was not surprised to hear Carlisle's words, after all, many general managers had called to inquire about the price before!

But these young people are now Lin Fei's treasure, and Lin Fei will not easily trade them away.

"Haha, Mr. Carlyle, I have a better way than this!"

Hearing Lin Fei's refusal, Carlisle frowned slightly. His interest has dropped by half now. After all, Carlisle doesn't like anyone in the Lakers except those young people!
But Carlisle still wanted to see what kind of medicine was sold in Lin Fei's gourd, so he asked, "Oh? Then let Mr. Lin Fei tell you."

Lin Fei paused for a moment, then said slowly: "We can pull a three-party deal and bring the king into our deal."

Hearing the name of the Kings, Carlisle's heart tightened.

Lin Fei continued: "The Kings sent Halliburton, Hield, and Tristan Thompson."

"You sent out Sabonis Jr., Jerry Millam, Justin Holiday, Brogdon, Turner and the second round."

"We sent Westbrook and Horton Tucker away."

"The Kings got Sabonis Jr., Jerry Millam, Justin Holiday and a second-round pick!"

"You get Halliburton, Tristan Thompson, Westbrook, Horton Tucker as the core of the team!"

"As for us getting Hield, Brogdon and Turner!"

Lin Fei carefully revealed his trading plan, which was to join the Lakers on the basis of the trade between the King and the Pacers in the previous life!
Lin Fei's bottom line is to send Westbrook away. As for Horton Tucker, Lin Fei doesn't think that Carlisle will eat Horton Tucker. Lin Fei is ready to be lowered by Carlisle!
After Lin Fei finished speaking, he quietly waited for Carlisle's answer.

There was a long silence on the other end of the phone.

Carlisle was already stupid, completely stupid!

The deal Lin Fei mentioned actually completely guessed the trade plan between the Pacers and the Kings!
If it weren't for the fact that only the general manager and himself knew about this trading plan, Carlisle would have thought that Lin Fei had planted spies inside the Pacers!

Seeing that Carlisle still didn't respond, Lin Fei couldn't sit still, and asked softly, "Mr. Carlisle, are you listening?"

Hearing Lin Fei's voice from the phone again, Carlisle regained his composure and quickly replied, "I'm listening, let me think about it."

After speaking, Carlisle tried hard to stabilize his emotions, and then began to think about the possibility of the deal that Lin Fei mentioned.

After thinking for a while, Carlisle slowly said: "Mr. Lin Fei, with all due respect, we can trade with the Kings directly, why should the Lakers get involved? And Westbrook's contract is very big, why should I eat it?" Come down? Give me a reason."

Lin Fei laughed: "Mr. Carlyle, of course I have a reason."

"You're right, Westbrook's contract is really big, but more importantly, Westbrook's contract will expire in more than a year, and by then, you will get 4700 million in salary space!!"

"The value of this contract lies in this, he can quickly help you complete the reconstruction."

"And Westbrook's current statistics are also good, and his style of play is also very eye-catching. With him, your attendance during the reconstruction period is also guaranteed!"

"As for Horton Tucker, he is young, in good physical condition, and his recent statistics have picked up. He has great potential!"

After Lin Fei finished speaking with reason and evidence, with the blessing of the skill 'Slick Tongue', Carlisle has been somewhat persuaded.

However, although Carlisle had already somewhat accepted the deal in his heart, he remained silent on the surface.

After a pause, Carlisle retorted in a deep voice: "Let's not talk about the statistics of Westbrook and Horton Tucker. I can see that their statistics are all fake."

"However, Westbrook's expiring contract is indeed very attractive to us, and we can consider Westbrook's deal."

"But Horton Tucker is not suitable for us, and Turner is very important to us. Unless you are willing to give up the first round of 27 years, I can still consider it."

Lin Fei nodded slightly, Carlisle's words were still in line with Lin Fei's psychological expectations!
However, Lin Fei would never give up the 27-year first-round pick for Horton Tucker. The value of the 27-year first-round pick is too great!

Although Horton Tucker cannot be released, it is also excellent to be able to release Westbrook.

"Mr. Carlisle, being able to swipe out the data just proves that they still have certain strength!"

"If there is no objection, we will settle Westbrook's deal like this!"

"But as for your asking price for Horton Tucker, we won't make a first-round pick in 27. I don't know if two second-round picks are possible."

Two second-round picks are much less attractive to the Pacers than one first-round pick. Carlisle was not interested at all, and quickly refused: "Sorry, two second-round picks are still not enough for us, Horton Tucker We won't eat it!"

"However, we can preliminarily finalize Westbrook's deal like this. We will send Brogdon and Hield in exchange for Westbrook!"

"I'll give you an answer as soon as I discuss it with the management."

Lin Fei didn't expect these two second-round picks to impress Carlisle, and he wasn't disappointed when he heard Carlisle's rejection, instead he agreed with a smile.

"Okay, that's it, Mr. Carlisle, I'm waiting for your call."

"Okay, okay!"

After hanging up the phone, Lin Fei breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a little excited.

You know, under Lin Fei's operation, Westbrook's transaction value is the highest. If Westbrook stays with the Lakers, his transaction value will plummet after the season ends!
At that time, if you want to trade Brogdon and Hield, I am afraid that you will have to put a first-round pick on it!
This is also the reason why Lin Fei is eager to advance, and now that Westbrook's deal has finally made substantial progress, how can Lin Fei not be excited!
