NBA: I was the No. 1 pick at the beginning

It can be said that the Bulls have completely failed this season.

Their philosophy, with Jimmy Butler at its core, didn't pan out.

So the Bulls are also preparing to rebuild and pack everyone out of the team.

Now what they want most is young players and draft picks.

After all, this is what the initial reconstruction needs.

The four of them thought for a while, and finally thought of a character.

If this person can come to Los Angeles, it will definitely be the best help for the Lakers.

After confirming, Chen Tian and the others also looked at Johnson.

After all, this matter needs Johnson to do it.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have to be the general manager.

Johnson also nodded, expressing his understanding.

After that, Chen Tian and the three left.

And Johnson also directly contacted the general manager of the Bulls.

The phone was connected soon.

"Hey my friend, there's a deal I don't know if you're interested."

Foreman, the general manager of the Bulls, also felt a little incredible when he heard Johnson's words.

You know it's the Lakers.

The Lakers this season can be said to be strong and strong, and the team is also very united.

In the odds of winning the championship, the Lakers also maintain the first position.

Foreman really couldn't imagine what kind of deal the Lakers would have.

But I have to say that many of the Lakers' players are Foreman's favorite.

But Foreman also knows that it is impossible for the Lakers to trade a player like Jokic.

So Foreman immediately thought of Harrell.

After all, Foreman also saw the news about the Lakers game just now.

Sure enough, Johnson said with a smile here.

"Foreman, how do you feel about Harrell?"

When Foreman heard Johnson's words, he also smiled in his heart.

"Johnson, let's not talk about this between us."

"The two of us are already very familiar with each other, so just tell me who you want."

Johnson also laughed when he heard Foreman's words.

"My friend, you are still so quick to talk."

"Then I'll be straight, I want Taj Gibson."

That's right, this is the player that Chen Tian and the others discussed and wanted to get.

Gibson is not a strong scorer.

But this guy's interior defense and attitude are players that every team wants.

He's like Tucker on the perimeter.

He is willing to do any kind of dirty work.

So if the deal can be reached, the inside combination of Gibson and Yi Jianlian will be on the bench.

It can be said that it will not lose to any team's starting lineup.

Foreman was also taken aback when he heard Johnson's words.

After all, Foreman is still very clear about Gibson's ability.

"You want Gibson, so talk about your chips."

Johnson also smiled.

The meaning of Foreman's words is very simple, as long as the chips are right, the transaction can appear.

There is no signal that it cannot be traded.

Johnson also said directly.

"The chips of Harrell and Ennis."

Foreman heard the two men.

Especially when I heard Harrell, I was still a little happy.

After all, Harrell performed very well in the previous period of time.

Especially the finishing ability at the basket, that is really great.

What's more, the team is now preparing to rebuild, and a young man like Harrell is very suitable for the Bulls.

Even if he doesn't realize his talent later, the Bulls won't suffer from letting him go in the offseason.

After all, Gibson has no value in the Bulls.

But Foreman didn't show it.

After all, it is not enough for these two players to trade Gibson.

Foreman also said directly.

"You guys have a pretty good plan, but let me tell you clearly that you don't have enough chips."

Johnson couldn't help scolding the old fox when he heard Foreman's words.

But Johnson asked further.

"My friend, tell me, what more chips do you want?"

"I want Brogdon."

Foreman also directly expressed his thoughts.

But it was immediately rejected by Johnson.

"NO, NO, NO, Brogdon is out of the question."

"Oh, then you mean we have nothing to talk about."

Johnson also sneered when he heard the meaning of Foreman's sarcastic remarks.

"Don't think there's only one Gibson in this league."

"I expressed the utmost sincerity, but you are playing me there."

"You should know how much Gibson's price is."

"Okay, since you don't want to trade, let's forget about it. I want to see what price you can sell Gibson for."

After speaking, Johnson was ready to hang up the phone.

Hearing Johnson's tone, Foreman knew that this guy was in a hurry.

Also hurriedly shouted.

"Okay ok ok, ok, you're giving me a second-round pick on top of those two players, ok."

"Okay, that's it, now we will submit the transaction report to the headquarters."

After speaking, Johnson hung up the phone.

After putting down the phone, Johnson also breathed a sigh of relief.

A second-round pick is of little use to the current Lakers.

Competing for the championship this season is the most critical.

After Foreman hung up the phone, he immediately reflected.

Johnson agreed so happily, this is the final reserve price of the Lakers.

I even begged him the same.

Immediately, Foreman was also very angry.

But be angry, the deal has been confirmed.

Then the only thing to do is to submit the report.

After all, the Bulls have nothing to lose here.

Soon the NBA headquarters received trade applications from the two teams.

In the end, without any surprises, the transaction application was approved directly.

After all, the players involved are not big names, so there is nothing to consider.

After the transaction application is approved.

The two teams immediately posted information on the official website that the team had completed the transaction.

Immediately, all the media once again heard the news.

You must know that this is also the first time the Lakers have completed a transaction during the season in three seasons.

The specific transaction is.

The Lakers sent Harrell, Ennis and a second-round pick.

The Bulls sent Gibson.

If this deal is placed on other teams, it is simply a small deal.

But this deal happened to the Lakers.

Everyone knows how powerful the Lakers are.

So after Gibson came to the Lakers, it was like a tiger with wings added.

Immediately, all teams in the NBA were terrified.

After all, the inside combination of Gibson, Yi Jianlian and Jokic can be said to be the strongest inside combination in the NBA.

This time, the Lakers once again dropped a lot in the odds list of winning the championship.

Many people are even saying that the Lakers winning the championship this season should be the least suspenseful thing.

And on January 1, Gibson will also complete his debut with the Lakers.
