NBA opening draw to twilight Shaquille O'Neal

Chapter 37 Paul Allen: I Want It All!
"Gentlemen, it seems that you are in trouble. Do you need my help?"

At some point, a white man who looked about 50 years old appeared in the arena.

This man wears a pair of brown glasses and has a gentle smile like Maitreya Buddha. Although his hair is a little gray, his tone of speech is very calm and gentle, which makes people feel like a spring breeze.

"Paul, you're finally here!"

After seeing the person who came, the stone hanging in Orsi's heart finally settled down.

"I heard that the team found two very good young people today, which stumped our excellent management, why don't you show me too!"

Paul Allen walked over with a smile and took the two reports from Terry Stotts.

Paul Allen, who acquired the Blazers in 88, is currently one of the longest-held owners of only NBA teams, and he also has his own professional analysis and evaluation of a basketball player.

"Wow, it looks like these two young people are really good!"

Paul Allen subconsciously held up the frame and turned his attention to a group of young people who were undergoing confrontation training.

Soon he was targeting perimeter players and post players in training uniforms No. 1 and No. 14, respectively.

His eyes were full of appreciation, as if he were looking at a fine art.

"Mr. Allen, King and Damien are both very good. It is difficult for us to choose between them, so I specifically want to ask for your opinion."

Terry Stotts, who had just arrived, seemed a little reserved, and his language was full of respect.

Fortunately, Paul Allen doesn't mind. As one of the founders of Microsoft, he has long been accustomed to the respect of others. He chuckled and said, "Then why can't we sign both of them?"

"But with the talents of the two of them, it is impossible to slip out of the top ten picks, and our team only has one sixth pick and one No.11..."

"Then why don't you just look for a higher ranking?"

"But it requires..."

"Don't worry, I have money!"

"..."

Local tyrant, I want to be your friend!

Although he has long known that his boss loves sports and has always been willing to invest in and strengthen the team, this appearance of not taking money seriously almost shocked Terry Stotts' jaw.

Is this the happiness of the rich?

Really atmospheric!

"I have the money, but you have to promise me that the arrival of those two young people must change the team."

This time Paul Allen looked at the management of his team no longer full of smiles, but full of sharpness.

Paul Allen, who has never married, has a high passion and interest in sports. He owns two professional teams, the Portland Trail Blazers in the NBA and the Seattle Seahawks in the NFL.

The Seahawks have won Super Bowl XLVIII three times in a row and have also won the NFC Championship three times.

In football, he has been satisfied, and now only the NBA championship trophy has not been won.

In the end, everyone's eyes focused on Orsi, the general manager. After round after round of careful calculation and deliberation, the latter finally raised his head and faced Paul Allen's sharp eyes.

"Paul, if the team gets King and Damien, plus LaMarcus, I can guarantee that in a year or two, the Blazers will be the next SuperSonics."

Although Sonics owner Bennett moved the team to Oklahoma three or four years ago and changed the team's name to the Thunder, everyone still subconsciously calls them the Sonics.

It is because the performance of this youth army last year was too exaggerated. You must know that Kevin Durant, the oldest core player of the Thunder team, is only 24 years old now, and he has not even reached 25.

But just like that, they made it all the way to the finals, and won a victory over the Heat's Big Three led by LeBron James, avoiding being swept away.

Almost everyone thinks that the future of the NBA belongs to the Thunder and the Thunder. They will be the most likely combination to build a dynasty after the OK combination since the 21st century.

Everyone knows that if you give them a little more time, it really just takes a little time, and the Thunder will form a powerful force under the leadership of San Shao to sweep the league, and dynasty domination is no longer a dream.

It can be said that at this point in time, before the confusing transaction on October 10, almost everyone is more optimistic about the latter being able to build a dynasty compared to the Big Three and the Thunder.

"Supersonic three masters... I hope you don't let me down again."

Thinking of the youth supersonic team in the league at this time, Paul Allen couldn't help but feel a little bit in his heart.

Once, the Blazers also had their three young men: Roy, Aldridge, and Oden. These three talented young men were once the greatest pride of the Portlanders. Everyone believed that their combination would be the future At least one championship trophy can be won.

It's a pity... oh
At this time, the confrontation training game is still in progress. The players on the field are divided into two teams, red and blue. In addition to the rookies in the trial training, there are also free agents and fringes of the team who urgently need to prove themselves.

But today they are destined to be reduced to a foil. Wang Zelin in red No. 14 and Lillard in blue No. 1 are the well-deserved cores of the two teams in this confrontation.

On the blue team's side, although the ball is basically in Lillard's hands, he has not been obsessed with showing off his offensive skills since individual singles. Data such as organization, rebounds, steals, blocks, etc. are all accounted for. In his heart, victory is the only way to win. is the first.

On the red team's side, Rooney Price plays the No. 7 position. He has been in the NBA for 4 years and has changed [-] teams. He is an out-and-out team fringe.

Rooney Price is well aware that the team manager wants to examine the ability of this big man, so he is also desperately feeding the ball for Wang Zelin.

For nothing else, I just want to make a good impression in front of Wang Zelin. If the latter is really selected by the Blazers with a high pick, then everything he did today will be valuable.

When Amon Johnson, No. 2 on the red team, was desperately asking for the ball from himself, Rooney Pressley ignored the opponent and dribbled the ball to Wang Zelin after half-court.

"Dude, are you blind? You didn't see that the kid from the Celestial Dynasty has been double-teamed by two people, and I am a big vacant seat, why didn't you pass it on to me?"

When he saw that he was ignored again, Amon Johnson was furious and couldn't help roaring.

"Cut, you blind idiot, I'm ashamed to be with you."

Rooney Price glanced at the other party casually, shook his head and left.
