Chapter 114 Helplessness and Training

In the early morning of Houston, the biggest difference from the steel jungle cities in China is that there are many fewer people. Rockets deputy general manager Morey is drinking morning tea with team owner Alexander.

Due to physical reasons, Carol Dawson is still holding the position of general manager of the team, but almost everything has been completely handed over to Morey. This summer's transfer period is also a big deal for Morey. test.

"Leslie, this summer is very important to us. He agreed to sign and trade with us late, which can bring us a group of good players. There is also the McGrady deal. He won the FMVP this year. We can take more initiative when negotiating. Many teams have already made offers to us. I think we..."

The Jew quietly listened to his general manager report the transaction intention to himself, and when he was halfway through, he asked slowly: "Is there really no way for us to stay late? We have made a lot of Chinese money in the past two years." For the money, if he went to another team, it would give us a direct competitor."

"The league will not allow two Chinese stars to play for the same team all the time." Morey felt like he was going to faint. I was talking to you about the team trade, but you were thinking about impossible good things , are you thinking of farting?

Alexander sighed: "Then let's trade him to a small city, Memphis? Milwaukee? Or even Toronto? Have these teams made offers?"

Morey took a deep breath and suppressed the rapidly rising blood pressure.

Can you think of something other than money in your mind?
Can being late be the same as a normal player?

If you dare to trade him to those small cities that don't shit, believe it or not, they will turn their faces immediately?
Moreover, the contract renewal work between Late and the Rockets has not yet been reached, and the two sides are still negotiating some details. Late is very sincere, and he has fulfilled his promise.

Alexander didn't care about this, and drank tea naturally: "If the quotation is suitable, let's deal late."

Morey immediately objected: "No, being late is different from ordinary players. We can ask for more chips, but we can't really provoke him, otherwise it is not a good thing for us. His relationship with Yao is also very good. This may affect Yao's sense of belonging to the team."

"Yao? Didn't he already agree to a contract extension with the team last year? I gave him such a high salary, so why is he dissatisfied?"

Morey really wanted to punch the old guy in front of him to death: "The Lakers are hooking up with Yao again. If you want to lose two Chinese players, then I will do as you say."

It was these words that really scared Alexander. He would not be troubled by money, and immediately said: "Okay, you are a professional, and the team's trade is still up to you, but the team's salary needs to be controlled. Yao is already the top player." I don’t want the team to have a second maximum salary, and I don’t even want to pay the luxury tax.”

Morey almost vomited blood. The team has already won two consecutive championships. If some outstanding players are selected, relying on Yao Ming's strength, it is not impossible to compete for the third championship and establish the second dynasty in the new century. But Alexander said In other words, it was simply putting a chain around his neck.

"Leslie, this is an opportunity to build a dynasty. If we increase investment, try to sign some good players, and win the third championship, it can greatly increase the value of the team."

Alexander pondered for a while: "Leaving the team late, I don't think we are still qualified to compete for the championship. As long as Yao can lead the team to the Western Conference finals... no, even if it is the Western Conference semifinals, our mission has been accomplished. Let’s recruit with this goal.”

The owner of the team is so unambitious and only thinks about making money, it really made Morey cry.

After finishing his not-so-pleasant morning tea with Alexander, Morey returned to the team office and started his day's work. An assistant knocked on the door and walked in: "Sir, the Warriors sent us a trade offer, and they want to get it late. "

"Put it aside, I'll look at it later." Morey rubbed his forehead, but didn't take it seriously.

However, what he didn't know was that the Warriors were really sincere.

Not only did they send an offer to the Rockets, they even chased them to Miami, where the team owner took Don Nelson to visit late in person.

The Warriors had a poor record this season, and finally ranked No.13 in the West. After the season ended, the team immediately announced the layoff of interim head coach Mike Montgomery, and the new head coach will be selected slowly.

But people in the circle have long known that the Warriors have reached a verbal agreement with Don Nelson.

Don Nelson's late visit today is the key to whether he will coach the Warriors.

Late rented a small villa in Miami. The environment is quiet and the sea breeze is blowing. It is a good place to rest.

After the two parties sat down, Don Nelson went straight to the point: "Late, the purpose of our visit this time is to invite you to join our Golden State Warriors. As long as you agree, we will get you at all costs. In fact, I originally planned to completely Retired, but after seeing your crazy performances for two seasons, many ideas flooded into my mind. Coaching you has become my dream. As long as you are willing, we promise to build a team with you as the core Competitive team."

Late declined Don Nelson's invitation politely: "Sorry, Mr. Nelson, the Warriors are not my top priority, but I will seriously consider it."

Don Nelson, who was rejected, couldn't hide his disappointment, and shook hands with Late: "Well, I hope we can cooperate next season. If you change your mind, you can call me privately at any time, and we will find a way to make a deal." of."

Not long after Don Nelson left, Tate also received a call from Kobe.

It turned out that before the game against the Lakers in February this year, the Big Three of the Rockets had dinner with Kobe. At that time, Yao Ming was very disappointed with the performance of the team management. He said that he regretted renewing his contract with the Rockets in advance. After telling the Lakers management about this matter, the Lakers immediately changed their minds and began to hook up with Yao Ming not long after the end of the regular season, but Yao Ming declined at that time on the grounds that he wanted to prepare for the playoffs wholeheartedly.

Not many people know about this matter, so it is naturally impossible for the media to reveal it.

Kobe called Wan Lai, intending to ask Lai Lai to train with Yao Ming in the summer, but Yao Ming refused.

This year there is the Stankovic Cup competition, and Yao Ming has been called up again!
No one bothered to be late. He told Mr. Wu that before the 08 Olympics, he would not participate in any Asian-level basketball games.

Mr. Wu knew the elegant meaning after hearing the string song, so he would naturally greet the Basketball Association, so no one mentioned the matter of being late for the call.

The domestic fans almost exploded again when they saw that the national team squad was not late.

Fortunately, the Basketball Association issued an announcement immediately, saying that they were late due to injuries and could not attend the Stankovic Cup this year. Coupled with some unspeakable reasons, the public opinion was suppressed.

Speaking of this, I feel sorry for Yao Ming for being late. There is no need for him as a big killer in the small Asian-level competitions, but the Basketball Association still squeezes Yao Ming hard for fear of being blamed.

I couldn't bear to be late, so I passed a message to Yao Ming through Sister Chen to let Yao Ming take a break.

In fact, being late was a bit of a nosy suspicion, but who made him a super scientific research talent and a treasure of the country.

In order to express his gratitude, Yao Ming naturally wanted to train with Lai, that's why Kobe called Lai, asking him to help make peace and continue to hook up with Yao Ming.

In the end Yao Ming still rejected the Lakers' olive branch. He couldn't let go of the Rockets.If the Big Three are gone, the Rockets will have nothing left.

Before the start of the free market on July 7, there were undercurrents surging between the media and the management of each team.

In fact, there are many signings that have been reached before July, and the official announcement of the signing is more like a ceremony.

On June 6, LeBron James also came to Miami, joining Wade and late training camp.

He also came with Wang Zhizhi. Obviously James is a smart man. He knew that Wang Zhizhi had a good relationship with lateness. Gained a foothold in the Cavaliers.

Today's Wang Zhizhi is not as depressed as he was last year. He is in high spirits and full of confidence. Just looking at the statistics, he has become the third leader of the Cavaliers and the team's insider.

After everyone said hello, they got together briefly and then devoted themselves to training.

Being late also saw the intensity of James' training—his tendons are really not a gift from God, but a result of his own hard work.

In terms of physical fitness alone, James is definitely the top in history, but he is not without shortcomings. He is tall and strong, and lacks agility, but he knows how to use his advantages. The scariest tank ever.

The two people of yellow race, late and Wang Zhizhi, are much worse in physical fitness, and they are completely incomparable with James.

And James works harder than the average person. He trains at least six days a week, and he trains for more than six hours a day!
And he is very self-disciplined, not greedy for food or playful, even in a bustling city like Miami, he would never go to nightclubs or drink!
This guy is an ascetic, and he does almost nothing except basketball-related things.

Wade is also similar to him, and his training intensity is not lower than that of James. Late once tried to do the same training with them, but before halfway through, he felt that his body would not be able to hold on.

Being late can only sigh in my heart, my potential is really not as good as these guys.

Even Wang Zhizhi has practiced now. He used to look a little chubby, but now he is full of tendons, and his arms are thicker than many people's thighs.

Fortunately, the main training item that was late was not physical, but the ability to hold the ball.
