Chapter 79 The player you want

Howard publicly solicited Qin Yang during the interview, which also added fuel to the fire.

LeBron James:

"Bruce is a very good player. With him in the team, you can rest assured at critical moments. When the team is in a stalemate and difficulties, I believe he is always right. He is a very important member of the team. As for the transaction, I don't think the Cavaliers uniform will agree to such a transaction."

Of course James would not agree to trade Qin Yang.

In the past, Qin Yang was a little isolated from the team because of the number of shots taken, but now that the team has redistributed shots, there are no major problems, and the strength of the team has been strengthened as a result.

James did not perform well in this game, and his shooting percentage was quite low, but the Cavaliers still won. This is Qin Yang's role.

This role is very useful in the playoffs.

For the sake of the championship, James did not agree to the transaction.

The coaches on both sides also expressed their views.

Mike Brown:

"Bruce is a very good player. When he first came to the team, he didn't receive my attention, but I found that he worked hard and made rapid progress. His physical fitness, shooting ability, and offensive ability with the ball are all constantly improving. Now he is already an outstanding star in the league."

"As for the trade, Bruce belongs to the Cavaliers, and the team will not trade him."

Coach Van Gundy:
"Bruce is an excellent point guard. This reminds me of the key to the team's victory. A super inside, plus a super outside, why not? Howard obviously likes him. If Bruce is a teammate, Howard can have more dunk opportunities per game, and the team's defense will be stronger."

"Such a player cannot be rejected by any coach or teammate who aspires to win the championship."

Although Van Gundy is very strict, he is very good at talking.

Some people say that Van Gundy ruined Howard because Van Gundy is a player who likes the outside line and is not good at training the inside line, but this statement is somewhat wrong.

Howard himself has the opportunity to attack in low positions with the ball in every game, but it is obvious that Howard's efficiency is very low, and the team has to focus their offense on the outside.

This has nothing to do with Van Gundy.

When Van Gundy saw this game, he obviously had a lot of thoughts about Qin Yang.

The Magic want to win the championship, but they can't do it with the current lineup. Unless Howard's inside offense improves to O'Neal's level, it will be good for the Magic to enter the finals.

Qin Yang is a very good choice.

This kind of verbal battle immediately attracted the attention of many fans who eat melons. The team coach and the core have such a verbal battle for the ownership of a player, which is rare in the NBA.

What's even more exciting is that on the second day after the game, the gossip media US Weekly broke a news:
"The Magic have put forward their own offer, using draft picks and Jameer Nelson for Bruce Chin, and are willing to eat a garbage contract."

The news itself wasn't terribly scary until Magic manager Odis Smith made it official in an interview:

"Nelson is a very good player. We are very happy to have such a player, but Bruce is a pillar player. The Magic need him to win the championship. We have submitted an application for a trade."

Otis Smith's words surprised everyone, and news about Qin Yang's deal spread throughout the league.

The media from all walks of life showed their talents. At one time, more than half of the teams in the league were trying to trade for Qin Yang. Qin Yang became the player who received the most attention before the trade deadline.

On the other side of the ocean, Chinese fans enjoyed a great show.

"Support Qin Yang to go to the Rockets, go to Houston to cooperate with Yao Ming, wait a few years to be the leader of the team, and the two will win the championship together." — No.1 in Houston.

"Go to the fire, with Wade sharing the pressure, we can win the championship again." A chicken in Miami.

"Staying in the Cavaliers and winning the championship with James is the best choice. What if going to other teams exposes your true strength?"

"Long live the Lakers, go to the Lakers and Kobe to win the championship, the Lakers love it."

…………

Chinese fans seldom see such a big show, and they have become melon-eating crowds one after another. There are countless comments on the analysis of Qin Yang's transfer on the Internet.

But Qin Yang, who returned to Cleveland, still practiced in a low-key manner.

Only after the training was over, Qin Yang received a call from Williams:
"The Cavaliers hope to renew your contract in advance. They offered a mid-level contract, and the annual salary in the fourth year will be greatly increased."

Qin Yang hesitated for a moment before replying: "Reject it, don't worry about the contract for now, this contract is for two years, this is the first year, it's not too late to talk about it then."

Qin Yang doesn't want to stay in Cleveland, not only because of the annual salary, but also because this is James' team, where Qin Yang's team status and possession of the ball can never be guaranteed.

Usually averages 25+ shots per game, this kind of thing can never be achieved by the Cavaliers.

So Qin Yang didn't want to stay in the Cavaliers from the bottom of his heart.

…………

A deal that shocks the alliance is often discussed for several months or even a year. This is not the first time that Qin Yang's deal has been mentioned.

In fact, many teams in the league have proposed transactions before this.

But Danny Ferry gave up after hesitating.

Now it seems that this decision is very correct, but now the Magic has given the Cavaliers a more tempting choice, Jameer Nelson and the obvious draft pick, and can even eat a junk contract.

To be honest, many players on the Magic team are still good, and they are very qualified 3D players.

Danny Ferry was moved instantly.

But Danny Ferry was not in a hurry. After contacting LeBron James and the boss, he asked Qin Yang's opinion on contract renewal. If Qin Yang had the willingness to renew the contract, the deal would not be worthwhile. But now after Qin Yang did not show any willingness to renew the contract, Danny Green hesitated.

"Next year is the last year of the 1+1 contract. According to the agreement, both parties have the right to choose whether to implement the next year's contract. That is to say, if Bruce is unwilling to stay here, he can end the contract early next year and become a completely free agent. This is not good for the Cavaliers."

Danny Ferry expressed his views to the team's coaches and owners.

Regarding Qin Yang, this is not the first time internal discussions have taken place.

"Bruce cannot be traded away. If the trade is gone, the team will lack important substitutes, and the difficulty of winning the championship will increase a lot. Just like this game, without Bruce's strength on the bench, it is difficult for the team to break the deadlock."

Mike Brown also didn't want Qin Yang to leave, so he expressed his support.

Among the Cavaliers, Qin Yang is one of the players who best meet Mike Brown's tactical requirements. He can defend, is good at three-pointers, and can also organize offenses.

Such a player has always been lacking for the Cavaliers.

Therefore, Mike Brown is reluctant to trade.
