Head coach of parallel imports in the NBA

Chapter 181 Good man, Chief Joe!
Just when Da Zhuang was feeling depressed, Milt's phone rang.

Immediately, Milt pressed the speakerphone, and the first sentence from the other end of the phone shocked everyone on the scene.

"Hi, Mr. Newton, I'm Rich Joe."

Just when Da Zhuang was thinking about who it was, Milt said a word to him silently, and Da Zhuang also understood it. The caller was the general manager of the Charlotte Bobcats. No, it should be called Xia The Charlotte Hornets, the Charlotte Bobcats officially changed their name to the Charlotte Hornets on the 21st of last month.

Immediately, Da Zhuang began to dig out the materials of the Hornets from the pile of materials in front of Milt.

After he roughly read it, his eyes lit up.

If the Cavaliers and Thunder belong to the unlucky category in this year's draft picks, then the Hornets are definitely super lucky. Into the playoffs, in the end my first round was only the 10th pick, which was naturally taken by the Bulls, but this guy got a first-round pick protected by the top 16 from the Pistons, and then he couldn't die The Pistons only got a first round of the ninth pick, which happened to miss the protection limit perfectly. In addition, they also had a first round protected by the top 8 from the Trail Blazers. The order of this pick was finally 12th. No. sign.

"Milter, let me be clear, we want your No. 4 pick."

"Rich, this pick is very important to us. I'm really sorry that I can't promise you."

"I think you can listen to our conditions first."

"Really? Why don't you tell me and listen."

"We are willing to exchange our No. 9 pick with next year's top 10 protected first round. I know that many people have contacted you recently, but I think this condition should be that no one is more sincere than us."

Milt looked at Chen Dazhuang who was sitting opposite, after seeing Chen Dazhuang shaking his head slightly.

"I'm sorry, Rich, but I'm afraid I can't say yes to that."

Who wants it next year? It’s not the No. [-] pick. What Nima’s labor and management want is to build the team this year and start practicing. This f*cking newcomer is recruited every year to fight a ghost. It's also like he has an addiction to the draft.

But then the voice from the other end of the phone made Da Zhuang stunned again.

"Chen, I know you must be here, I'm Michael."

Fuck, people really can't talk about it, this shit said Cao Cao Cao Cao came out.

"Hello, Mr. Jordan!"

"Chen, consider our conditions. The price we offered is very sincere. I know that you can completely decide this matter."

Indeed, as Qiao Gangzhu said, shortly after Kelly took over the Timberwolves, she directly announced that Chen Dazhuang had absolute power in the team's player introduction and team game matters.

"Mr. Jordan, it's actually not impossible, but the conditions have to be changed."

"What are the conditions, let's hear it."

"I want your two first rounders this year."

After Chen Dazhuang finished speaking, there was no sound on the other end of the phone, only the sound of breathing from time to time told everyone that the phone was not hung up, but that the other party was lost in thought.

Chen Dazhuang did not urge the other party, but just quietly waited for the other party to give him a reply.

About 5 minutes later, the voice from the opposite side brought joy to Da Zhuang's face.

"Okay, Chen, I agree, you are too shrewd, it's really not easy to make a deal with you, no wonder many people have to play hard when dealing with the Timberwolves, otherwise they are easy to be fooled. "

"Mr. Jordan, this is a very wise decision. The rumors outside are all rumors and slander against me. I am actually a very kind person. Believe me, Mr. Jordan, this is a win-win deal."

"Hahahaha, I hope it is as you said, but, Chen, I still want to ask, your lineup seems to me to be very stable, why do you still need so many draft picks, can you tell me what do you think? Did you hit anyone?"

"There are too many talented players in this class, but Mr. Jordan, you don't have to worry about me. Now you have a higher pick than me, don't you?"

"OK, that's it. I'll let Rich prepare and report to the league for review."

"no problem."

After hanging up the phone, Da Zhuang looked very excited, but Milt looked at Chen Dazhuang puzzled. He didn't understand what was so exciting about it. A No. 4 pick was replaced by a No. 9 and a No. 24. From Milt's point of view, the Timberwolves It was a loss.

He didn't know that this year's draft was the most typical year in the game.

Many second-round picks and players who fell out of the lottery area later played a worth that can match a big contract. The more picks in hand, the more choices there are.

What is this called, the landlord has food in his house, don't panic!

"Chen, you can tell me now, who do we need to invite for trial training?"

"There is no need to arrange a trial training, don't worry, Milt, believe me, I know what is in my heart, let me see what picks we have now."

After completing the deal for the No. 4 pick, Chen Dazhuang now holds the No. 9 and No. 24 picks in the first round of this draft, and he also holds the No. 30 pick in his hands. In addition, from the deal with the Cavaliers The second round he got was the 32nd pick, and then the two second rounds he got from Dallas were the 34th and 45th picks, and his own second round was the 60th pick.

In Chen Dazhuang's plan for the team, the key point is to operate in positions one to three on the perimeter. First of all, he must find a good substitute for Middleton. In addition, there is already Rubio, the Spanish player. Golden Boy's contract is about to expire this summer, and of course the team very much hopes to keep him.

But just in case, Da Zhuang still has to be prepared. After all, with the Timberwolves winning the championship, some players in the current Timberwolves team are all sweet, especially some hateful guys who are fine and like to disrupt the market.

The other is Bennett's No. [-] position. With the growth of age, Budinger has gradually failed to meet the needs of Da Zhuang, so this position must be injected with fresh blood.

There is nothing wrong with the position of power forward. Yi Jianlian's competitive state is good. In addition, Sims' performance also allowed the team to complete an early contract extension with him some time ago. It is Oden's position at position [-]. Tyler Zeller The performance has not been very stable.

It means that in Chen Dazhuang's plan, he will operate four of the five positions on the field. This is why he hoarded so many draft picks. He wants to solve the problem of the Timberwolves in the next few years once and for all. Lineup Puzzle.
