NBA: Trading Westbrook at the beginning shocked Lao Zhan

At this moment, the Lakers had just won the game. Lin Fei hurried back to the arena. After asking a staff member for questioning, Lin Fei learned that Vogel was still in the team's locker room at this time, so he hurriedly got up and went.

Walking to the door of the team's locker room, Lin Fei just ran into Vogel who was about to leave the door of the locker room, and quickly stopped him.

"Hey, Mr. Vogel, I'm about to find you!"

Vogel looked at Lin Fei, who was in a hurry, and asked with some doubts: "Mr. Lin Fei? What's the matter? I'm going to take Cousins ​​to the press conference!"

Lin Fei took a deep breath, glanced at Cousins ​​next to him, and said softly: "Then what, you go to the press conference first, I'll wait for you in your office, after the press conference is over, hurry up Come here, I'll talk to you again!"

Hearing Lin Fei's nonsensical words, Vogel felt confused, but considering that the press conference was about to start, Vogel could only agree first: "Okay, okay Lin Fei Sir, I will go to the press conference first!"

Lin Fei nodded slightly, and after signaling to Vogel, he walked towards Vogel's office.

Entering Vogel's office, Lin Fei sat on the sofa beside him, quietly waiting for Vogel's arrival, while thinking about the feasibility of the trade plan with the Blazers.

According to Lin Fei's prediction, the Lakers' four young and potential forwards will definitely be more attractive than the price offered by the Clippers!
After all, in Lin Fei's view, the chips paid by the Clippers in his previous life are really not attractive!

Eric Bledsoe, Winslow, Keane Johnson and a second-round pick, if this price tag can impress the Blazers, the 4 young strikers that the Lakers opened should be able to impress the Blazers even more.

But which players to send, this is what Lin Fei needs to consider!
The game between the Lakers and the Kings was nothing to watch. At the post-match press conference, most of the reporters had little interest. After asking a few symbolic questions, they ended up asking questions. Just like that, the post-match press conference quickly ended. it's over.

As soon as the press conference was over, Vogel hurried back to his office.

Walking on the road, Vogel became more and more curious. On weekdays, he would rarely see Lin Fei so anxious. This time Lin Fei was looking for him in such a hurry, he must have something big to discuss with him!
Vogel couldn't help his growing curiosity, and immediately asked after pushing open the door of his office.

: "Hey, Mr. Lin Fei, come on, tell me what's going on!"

Seeing that Vogel was coming, Lin Fei quickly sat upright. After Vogel took his seat, Lin Fei said, "What I want to tell you is about the transaction!"

"Deal? With whom?"

Hearing Lin Fei's words, Vogel froze for a moment, then frowned deeply.

In Vogel's view, the current Lakers have made a lot of transactions this season, and the lineup has undergone great changes. If there is another transaction at this time, it may destroy the team's established chemical reaction!

And judging from Lin Fei's hasty reaction, this deal must not be small!

Sure enough, as Vogel expected, Lin Fei said, "Yes, trade with the Trail Blazers! It's a 4 for 2 deal!"

Now Vogel couldn't sit still, and asked quickly: "Mr. Lin Fei, the 4-for-2 deal is not a big deal. We have already made two relatively big deals before. Mr. Lin Fei, The more deals you do, the better, I think we need to think about it.”

Before Vogel finished speaking, Lin Fei interrupted Vogel with a smile, and said with a smile: "Believe me, Mr. Vogel, wait for me to finish, you will never refuse this deal! "

Hearing Lin Fei's words, Vogel nodded silently, and raised his hand to signal Lin Fei to continue talking.

"Mr. Vogel, our team has a very big problem now, that is, there are too many expiring contracts!"

"By the end of this season, we will lose a lot of combat power. Almost half of the players' contracts will expire. According to their current performance, we will not even be able to renew half of them next season! "

"This is not a small hidden danger. If our performance is not good this season, it is inevitable that there will be a large loss of players! Our combat effectiveness next season will also drop a lot!"

After Lin Fei finished speaking, Vogel nodded in agreement and replied softly: "You are right, but what does this have to do with our deal with the Blazers?"

Lin Fei smiled: "The relationship is getting bigger!"

"If we want to avoid the loss of players, the best way is of course to change to a long-term contract, and the combat effectiveness of the players must not be bad!"

"And the Blazers' Covington and Norman Powell are just very suitable. Firstly, their combat power is not weak, and their technical characteristics are in line with the characteristics of our Lakers team!"

"Secondly, Norman Powell is on a long-term contract. As for Covington, if we trade him, we will have Covington's bird rights and we will be able to successfully sign him next season."

"Thirdly. We can clean up the lineup, just enough to free up 2 places on official contracts, so that we can convert players on two-way contracts into official contracts in the future to ensure that they can play in the playoffs!!"

"This is a good way to kill three birds with one stone!"

Hearing Lin Fei's words, Vogel pondered for a while, nodded hesitantly, and said, "I admit that you are right, Mr. Lin Fei!"

"However, since you have already made up your mind, you didn't call me here just to inform me, did you?"

Lin Fei smiled and shook his head: "Of course not, Mr. Vogel, I'm here to discuss with you what kind of chips we should pay to complete the deal with the Blazers, and this is what I want to discuss with you matter!"

After Lin Fei finished speaking, Vogel nodded, fell into deep thought, thinking constantly in his mind, and remained silent for a long time.

Looking at Vogel who was thinking hard, Lin Fei smiled slightly and continued

"Now the needs of the Blazers are obvious. They are starting to rebuild, and the salary space will not be small. They can eat the young and potential expiring contracts we launched next season. Therefore, we only need to pay 4 young or It’s enough to impress them with a powerful bargaining chip!”

"But who the four are, I still can't make up my mind, so I'm here to ask Mr. Vogel to discuss it!"

After finishing speaking, Lin Fei closed his mouth and did not say anything else. He looked at Vogel quietly, waiting for Vogel's reply.
