NBA: Art is trash talk

Chapter 130 Elgin is very busy

As soon as the trade rumors came out, Elkin's phone was buzzing.

The fastest mover was Larry Bird.

"Come on, let's trade, I am the most sincere one."

Byrd said.

"Oh, do you want to trade with Olney or Peja, no matter which one I am at a loss, I need to add more chips."

Elgin is in a good mood, and the Pacers are a good trade target. There are Jr. O'Neal and Peja Stojakovic in the same position, so there is no need to worry about defects in the lineup after the trade.

However, the data of these two are much worse than that of Brand, and Elkin feels a bit at a loss.

"Damn, who told you that you want Brand, what I want is He."

Bird's words almost made Elgin smash the phone directly.

Bird was still chattering on the phone: "Bland has proven himself, why is he just a first-year rookie, can you guarantee that he will play well in the future and will not suffer from injuries? Moreover, his personality is also very strong. Problems, like a cancer in the locker room and causing a lot of trouble off the court, are definitely not the cornerstone of the team."

Those who didn't know about this derogation thought that Byrd was the number one black star in the world.

But Elgin is not stupid, he asked back: "Since what is so rubbish, why do you want it again and again?"

"I don't want to take a gamble. By the way, help the team sell some box office. As for you, Elgin, this is your best chance to form a championship lineup. What an honor it is to win the championship."

Byrd turned into a big flicker, making one set of fallacies after another.

Not to mention, Elgin was really moved.

However, when he thought of Sterling's attitude, Elgin could only sigh: "Larry, although what you said is very reasonable, I can't help it if it is not for sale designated by my boss. If you want to distribute Rand, we can continue talking."

"it's a pity."

Eventually, Larry Bird hung up.

All he wanted was He Xinghui.

As for Brand, Bird thinks his upper limit is like this, and it's okay to be the boss of an ordinary team.

But if you want to be the cornerstone of a championship team, you are still a little short.

Moreover, he needed to be so active in trading He Xinghui.If you want Brand, you can let Elgin hang out for a few days before lowering the price.

Byrd's phone call had just ended, and the Knicks' smiling assassin Thomas also came.

"Thomas, please don't tell me why you made this call."

Elgin grumbled.

"Damn, when did you learn mind reading? Now that you've seen it, I don't need to talk nonsense. You should know my sincerity."

Thomas said.

"I don't want to know your sincerity, what is not for sale."

"Why, He and Brand are already in conflict. They can no longer coexist. The Knicks don't have good forwards, but we have a bunch of good guards. We can trade with you to achieve a win-win situation."

Thomas is worrying now. Marbury, Crawford, and Francis in the team overlap and need to be traded urgently.

"You're talking like I can only trade with you Knicks. There are so many people who want to trade with me that I can't count them. I just hung up on Larry, and now I'm going to hang up on you .”

After speaking, Elgin Baylor hung up the phone proudly.

Speaking of which, there are indeed a lot of managers who have taken the initiative to seek deals from him this year, which makes him quite proud.

Unfortunately, those people's targets were almost all He Xinghui, but He Xinghui was not for sale.

This made Elgin feel that he had nowhere to display his talents, which was a pity.

When he was idle and bored, he even fantasized about how to trade. He could build several different championship lineups, enough for him to win the title of the best manager.

Unfortunately, this kind of thing can only be thought about.

Not long after Thomas hung up, the phone rang several times.

But without exception, they all came to ask He Xinghui.

No matter how the outside media smear He Xinghui now, it will not affect the judgment of those team managers.

If they can take advantage of this opportunity to get He Xinghui, most team managers can come up with the condition of 'player selection'.

Without Sterling's pressure, Elgin would definitely not be able to withstand this temptation.

Several unscrupulous purchase calls in a row made Elkin very angry.

"bell bell"

The call rang again, and Elkin didn't even want to answer it, since he came to ask for He Xinghui anyway, wasting time.

Still, after a moment's hesitation, Elkin finally picked up the phone.

Without waiting for the other party to speak, Elgin said directly first: "I said, what is not for sale, do you understand?"

"What? Isn't it Brand who wants to leave the team? Could it be that my information is wrong?"

A confused voice rang through the phone.

This time it was the king's general manager who called, and he was the only serious manager.

"Sorry, Effie. I thought it was another guy trying to ask for a price. Damn, I've had seven or eight calls like this today."

Elgin grumbled.

Effie laughed out loud for a while, and then said, "I really want to buy Brand."

"Oh, what chips are you willing to pay?"

As soon as he heard that the other party wanted Brand, Elkin immediately became interested, and at the same time, he began to recall the King's lineup in his mind, which powerful players could be selected.

"All-star player, Raheem, it's interesting, buddy. Brand has taken the initiative to leave, and the managers of other teams will definitely use this to lower the price of you. No one will be more generous than me."

What Effie said meant that Elkin wanted to hang up the phone again. He really wanted to tell Effie that no one else really lowered the price to him, but you did it to me.

All-star player Raheem?

The modifier All-Star is really good, but in fact, Raheem has only been selected as an All-Star once, and he was a substitute.

Although Brand's honors are rare, at least Brand has statistics now, and 24+10 is not something everyone can get.

On the other hand, Raheem, this year's data has dropped to 12+5, and he can tell at a glance that he can't beat it.

Elkin felt that Effie was just here to tease him.

If he dared to agree to the deal, angry fans could tear himself apart the next day.

"Stop it, Effie. I know you all think I'm stupid, but I'm not stupid at all. Unless you trade Brad Miller and Artest, don't even think about it."

Elgin Baylor reported his conditions.

The Clippers are lacking at the center position, and Brad Miller is a good supplement.Artest, on the other hand, can make up for the vacancy left by Brand.

Now, it's Effie's turn to complain.

In short, after a round of friendly exchanges between the two sides, the negotiations broke down.

This made Elgin feel tired for a while, and it was too difficult to replace Brand with a suitable player.

Coupled with the leak of news that Brand wants to leave the team, it will make the managers of other teams feel confident.
