The older superstars of the NBA

"what?"

"Does he think I will give in? No way, I will never compromise. I am a top center in the league, why would I compromise for an old guy?"

After Dwight Howard heard the news, all he showed was resistance.

Originally, his identity was there, even though his career has started to decline now, there are still many teams willing to give him a chance.

Therefore, Dwight Howard, who has not suffered a "reality blow", is of course not convinced by this.

However, he did not expect that within two days, the new general manager of the team, Sam Mitchell, approached him directly.Sam Mitchell was also in charge of signing Dwight Howard back then, and he had a good relationship with the latter. Therefore, after the two met, Sam Mitchell also told the truth.

"Dwight, you have provoked someone you shouldn't have provoked this time, listen to my advice, make up with Coach Norman! He is not something you can provoke..."

Dwight Howard was very upset when he heard this.

"What? He's just an old guy. Could it be that the team can live without me but not without him? Why does he scold me as soon as he takes office?"

"I won't compromise. Either the team trades me, or the old guy is sent away... Only one of us can stay..."

Dwight Howard also took the lead, saying such words to express his dissatisfaction.

But soon, the team general manager Sam Mitchell's words shocked him.

"If you really think that way, the team will put you on the shelf... However, we estimate that no club will choose to match your contract. If that is the case, the team is likely to Follow the arrangement of Coach Norman..."

"And you must be very clear about what he will do. At that time, you may be faced with being hidden, and you may not be able to do anything this season... Are you willing to take money and not play games? I miss you There are not many years left in your career, if you don't play for one season, can you guarantee the state of the next season?"

"Coach Norman, Mr. Philip and the top management of the team unanimously support the top position. At that time, the team will lose money at most, and you will lose your career. Are you really willing to see all this?"

Dwight Howard was silent.

General manager Sam Mitchell's words made him deep in thought.

In fact, when it comes to signing with the Minnesota Timberwolves, Dwight Howard is not just for money.In a way, he didn't have a particularly good place to go either.

Some places where he wants to go, the other party's asking price will not be too high, after all, his age is there, especially in the past two seasons, his state has declined rapidly.

Most of the places with high prices are not very competitive, after all, it is just to dawdle.

And these places also attach great importance to Dwight Howard's age. It can be said that age has become a key node that he cannot get around.

Among his choices, the Minnesota Timberwolves are indeed the only team with a sincere enough offer and a certain ability within the team to reach the Western Conference Finals.

Considering these two points, Dwight Howard chose this team.

After a long time, Dwight Howard seemed to have figured it out, and finally sighed, and then said in front of general manager Sam Mitchell, "I can compromise, but I can't accept punishment. What I can guarantee is that every training session in the future Arrived on time...”

Seeing Dwight Howard concede, general manager Sam Mitchell quickly relayed his words to new head coach Norman Thomas.

I thought that Norman Thomas would take a step back and solve this matter, but I didn't expect Norman Thomas' answer to be still very strong.

"No."

"If you agree to the punishment, you must accept it. He is a man. Doesn't he even understand such a truth?"

After the news was sent back to Dwight Howard, after much deliberation, he finally decided to give in.

After all, the price offered by the Minnesota Timberwolves is too high. If such a price is released to match, no team in the entire league can accept it.

But it would be very unrealistic for the team to buy out itself.

If he continues to stalemate, the Minnesota Timberwolves may not block his career.This is even more depressing for Dwight Howard, who was worried about how to go in the second half of his career.

Therefore, for a period of time after that, Dwight Howard entered the arena for training one hour earlier every day according to what the head coach Norman Thomas said.

This is suffering Dwight Howard.

He was not so keen on training. In order to accomplish the goal that coach Norman Thomas said, he had to give up all kinds of entertainment activities at night every day. After falling asleep early, he got up early the next morning to rush to the training hall.

However, it was precisely this arrangement that made Dwight Howard discover Zhao Feiyang and others in the training hall.

Especially when he saw substitute Adrian Ennis, Dwight Howard was somewhat shocked.

He really couldn't understand why a small substitute worked so hard?

In his opinion, if the talent is not enough, it is impossible to fight hard, and the opponent is undrafted, which has proved to a certain extent that their talent is mediocre, but this guy named Adrian Ennis is not willing at all. Give up, this spirit is somewhat touching.

As time goes by, the nba preseason game about the Minnesota Timberwolves will finally arrive.

The entire league has already started the preseason stage, and many teams have been assigned various goals, some going to Europe, some going to Africa, and many teams going to Asia.

Among them, the pickle country and the island country are also the areas that the NBA focuses on. This time, both countries have NBA teams to participate in the competition.

As for Huaxia, it is the home court of the Minnesota Timberwolves and the Los Angeles Lakers.

After communicating with China, the Minnesota Timberwolves also officially flew to China.This time, in order to make the game full of gimmicks, the nba officials also communicated with the Huaxia cba club team.

In order to make the match between the two sides more attractive to fans, this time, the cba sent the Liaoning team, which won the runner-up last season, to attack as one of the teams to face the Minnesota Timberwolves.

The game was held at the Shenyang Liaoning Gymnasium, home of the Liaoning team.

Before the game started, the tickets for this game were sold out, and many fans who could not buy tickets were standing outside the arena, looking forward to watching the two league playoff teams on the big screen. Showdown.
