NBA: I am the card dealer
Chapter 151 Invited to the Office
Chapter 151: Being invited to the office
That night.
Adrian Wojnarowski tweeted the news: The Heat will start the transaction, the former All-Star player Lool Deng is put on the shelf, the Nuggets, Pistons, Celtics, Nets, etc. The team is interested.
Don't underestimate the current Luol Deng. He still has a place in the league. He was selected to the All-Stars for two consecutive years in 12 and 13. His path to the All-Stars was interrupted last year after he was traded to the Cavaliers.
It can be said that it is at the peak of the sun.
Although the start of the season was a mess, his performance in recent times has returned to All-Star level.
The data are even better than those at his peak. Coupled with the Heat's recent six-game winning streak, Luol Deng has a more valuable prospect.
So as soon as this news came out, it immediately sparked a heated discussion.
of course.
The most important thing is that the whistleblower Adrian Wojnarowski is not an ordinary reporter, known as Woj. Because of his accurate and fast breaking news, he was affectionately dubbed "Wojen" by netizens.
The information he broke was very accurate.
In other words.
The news is likely to be true.
This makes many fans wonder, the Heat are moving fast on the high-speed train, why are they thinking about a trade at this time?
And the person who needs to move is the starting-level quasi-All-Star player Luol Deng.
This makes many people confused.
You must know that the most important thing for a team aiming for the playoffs is to have a stable lineup, develop tacit understanding and cooperation, understand tactical drills, and tap more potential from players to prepare for the playoffs.
Especially for the Heat.
The championship is hot!
It is a taboo to trade starting-level players at this time.
As for true fans who have watched today's game between the Magic and the Heat, they actually already have some premonitions.
If he even steals the ball from his teammates, then there must be a huge problem and it has to be traded.
But whatever the reason, the news is out.
Many fans of other teams have already become obscene... Uh! It should be a suggestion to trade such a quasi-all-star with so-and-so.
Those weak teams can understand.
Like the Nuggets and Pistons, they don't have a star player. If they can get Luol Deng, they can immediately add star flavor and give the team something to look forward to.
It’s understandable that the Celtics and Nets also don’t have a clear core. The difference is that they are rushing for the playoffs. Now if they can get Luol Deng, their strength will undoubtedly improve by leaps and bounds, and they will strive for a playoff. The quota is no problem.
The strange thing is that the fans of the Cleveland Cavaliers also joined the discussion, and they were very turbulent and eager.
Isn’t the lineup of point guard James + shooting guard Irving + small forward Luol Deng + power forward Love very dreamy?
The trade proposal given by the fans is: Shawn Marion + Mike Miller traded for Luol Deng + first-round pick.
The reason for the trade is also very simple: Luol Deng is a three-point threat and can open up space for the team. He also has excellent low-post skills and post-up play, which can enrich the team's tactical system. Most importantly, Luol Deng It can also make up for the defensive shortcomings of the forwards and completely relieve the pressure on James and Love.
We really have entered a moment of fantasy.
Immediately, some Heat fans came out and yelled:
"The Heat are philanthropists and they do charity specifically for me, King James?"
"Are you dreaming or not? Are you paying Luol Deng + a first-round pick for two of you guys in their thirties? Do you think Riley is an old fool, or do you think the whole world You're an idiot, I don't know how you idiots can say this, Luol Deng Bai just gives you a gift, and he also wants to be a first-rounder, what the hell...Riley is your godfather."
"It's better to remove the first round and replace Xue Liancheng + Luol Deng with Mike Miller + Shawn Marion. If you want to dream, dream bigger."
"Nothing is bigger than boldness. Since we have already changed for this reason, why not add Waiters for Durant, TT Thompson for Howard, and let Luol Deng and Love come on the bench."
"It's better to just award the award, Cavaliers championship, James FMVP, and stop playing the game."
"As long as there is a sign of trouble, James and the others would like to grab all the superstars in the league and start the moment of wishful thinking."
This is just a group of people who are mocking.
Even James fans, many people don't understand: Luol Deng played for the Cavaliers last year. Since Luol Deng is so good, why should he be let go in the offseason?
My big brother James said: You know what a chicken, Luol Deng’s price was too high at that time, and Waiters and Irving were not good at organizing and distributing the ball, so they didn’t perform well. Now that James is back, Luol Deng will get a good shooting opportunity and can use all his advantages.
And these are just what other fans are saying.
The heat plate has also exploded.
"Okay, why trade?"
"That's right! The team is on the right track. It has recently won six games in a row and has a strong momentum. It is heading towards the goal of becoming No. 1 in the Eastern Conference. Trading at this time? Are you crazy?"
"Didn't you watch the game against the Magic? There might have been internal strife..."
"Even if you grab the ball from your teammates, it's useless to keep it."
"Didn't you notice? When Bosh was on the same court, Luol Deng's performance was very average."
"I don't have the ball, I'm in a mood!"
"Then it looks like Luol Deng has to go."
After the fans accept the reality, they can make suggestions and offer their own trading plans one after another.
Uh……
That is, entering the moment of fantasy.
"Trading Luol Deng is not impossible, but you have to replace it with a capable star. Luol Deng + Norris Cole + Sean Williams + first-round pick for Anthony. How about this deal?"
"How dare you think about it!"
"The chip is not bad, do you think the melon is still the melon before?"
"Forming the Big Four? This is indeed a good choice, but Anthony needs the ball! Can he integrate into the team?"
"Anthony doesn't need to fantasize. Pierce can be considered instead."
"Are you stupid? Pierce is about to retire, and you still want to replace him with Pierce?"
"Lol Deng + Granger + Hamilton for Rudy Gay, this is a good deal."
"Guay is too vicious and his defense is not very good. It is better to replace him with Ariza. At least Ariza can defend."
And as time goes by.
Rumors kept coming out.
Here, "Sports Illustrated" revealed that the Grizzlies are also interested in Luol Deng, and the main bargaining chip is Courtney Lee.
Over there, "Yahoo Sports" has material that the Pelicans are willing to provide the best rookie in 09, Tyreke Evans and Lool Deng in exchange.
ESPN also said that according to reliable information, the Trail Blazers are willing to provide Batum as the main bargaining chip in exchange for Luol Deng to upgrade the lineup.
Anyway, there are all kinds of rumors flying all over the place.
Most of the Heat's players are involved in such trade rumors.
This night is destined to be a sleepless night.
Ok……
For some people, it is literally impossible to sleep.
……
……
The next day.
When Xue Liancheng got up, it was already past nine o'clock.
This sleep, I really slept soundly!
Since the start of the game, he has been keeping his nerves tight and training at a high intensity. Yesterday, when he met Feng Lai, even though he did nothing but just talked, it made him relax inexplicably.
So that...
What the hell...
He missed the team's big training camp for the first time.
When he arrived at the gym, his teammates stared at him strangely.
Xue Liancheng also discovered a strange phenomenon. Many teammates actually had panda eyes.
For example, Hamilton, Chalmers, and Sean Williams are particularly serious.
Obviously.
They are still very satisfied with their current position in the Heat and do not want to leave.
This is human nature.
Many people are unwilling to be traded. The main reason is that they have a certain tactical status in the original team, have enough playing time, and have adapted to their position.
It is undoubtedly a very difficult thing for them to trade them at this time and let them start to integrate into other teams' tactical systems.
of course.
If you can get more playing time or get a bigger contract, then let's talk about it.
Most importantly, their families have settled here.
If you are traded, you have to deal with a lot of things, which is very troublesome.
Sean Williams came up to him with a surprised look on his face: "Xue, are you also suffering from insomnia?"
Xue Liancheng: "Uh... no!"
Not only did he not, but he also slept soundly.
But this.
Everyone doesn't believe it.
Since the start of the game, no matter how early they arrive, they can see that Xue Liancheng is already engaged in training. But last night, when the trade rumors came out, Xue Liancheng was late for the first time.
Doesn't this explain the problem?
Hamilton also walked over with a smile, "Xue, actually you don't need to worry at all."
Xue Liancheng: "..."
I'm not worried at all.
In the current Heat, he is definitely the most stable player, or even one of them. Unless Riley has a hole in his head, he will consider trading him.
and so.
What does he need to worry about?
How redundant.
Whiteside also came over with a smile, "What do you know, Xue and his old buddy reunited after a long absence, maybe they were overworked when they went to have fun."
This is a typical example of good intentions leading to bad things.
Originally, Whiteside wanted to rescue Xue Liancheng and please the future leader.
But Xue Liancheng didn't like to hear this. I'm so indestructible, how could I overwork myself?
Who do you look down on?
What's more... he really didn't go to such a place, he didn't admit it.
Xue Liancheng said solemnly, "If you don't train, what are you doing here?"
Norris Cole sighed, "There are so many rumors out there, how can I still think about training!"
This is said to be implicit.
Be straightforward.
Maybe I’ll have to pack up and leave later, and I’ll have to train a lot!
Xue Liancheng quickly realized this problem and comforted him, "Don't think so much, it's just a rumor..."
But it's no use.
Now everyone's thoughts are no longer on this, but they are focused on trying to find out some information.
Hamilton said, "Xue, have you received any news?"
Xue Liancheng smiled bitterly, "I am a rookie, what news can I receive?"
Norris Cole was obviously flattering, "You can't say that, you are the future of Miami!"
Xue Liancheng shrugged, "Let's go, go to training, don't worry about things here."
Everyone lacked interest and had no intention of moving.
Sudden.
Xue Liancheng noticed that there was no figure of Luo Er Deng in the crowd, and couldn't help but asked curiously, "Where is Luo Er?"
Sean Williams looked solemn and said, "Not yet."
Xue Liancheng raised his eyebrows, his heart was slightly shaken, and he murmured, "Not coming...?"
It was an accident that he was late.
And Luol Deng can't be late too, right?
Then there is only one possibility, that is, the team has informed Luol Deng that he will not come.
If that's the case, then this speed...is too fast?
Simply defenseless!
He originally thought that the management would bargain with other teams and argue for a few days.
Or let Luol Deng continue to play and raise the price.
But the current situation was really beyond his expectation.
No wonder everyone has no intention of training at all. This situation is really panicking.
There is a feeling of being carried on the execution platform and being beheaded at any time, training?
Stop it……
Xue Liancheng frowned and suddenly realized that Wade was not there either. He couldn't help but ask, "Where is Dwayne?"
Sean Williams secretly glanced at Bosh not far away and replied in a low voice: "Dwayne was just called over by Spoelstra."
Xue Liancheng frowned, Wade was called away?
It seems that the transaction can really happen at any time.
There is indeed a sign of a coming storm.
Shake his head.
He doesn't think about these things, he just needs to do his part, deal?
It's not his turn to participate yet.
Ok……
Bosh is not qualified, let alone him?
And just as he was about to go to the locker room to change clothes.
Assistant coach Keith stopped him, "Xue, come here."
Xue Liancheng's heart skipped a beat for no reason, holy shit...
Is this coming?
The expressions of the others also changed slightly.
Obviously.
They also realized that a deal might actually happen.
As for the person with the worst face, it must be Chris Bosh.
At this moment.
Second Master Bo's entire face was completely dark, his eyes were narrowed, and he was staring at Xue Liancheng.
Xue Liancheng pretended he didn't see it and turned back to Keith, "What's wrong?"
Keith didn't say anything here, but waved, "You'll know when you come with me."
Xue Liancheng nodded and quickly followed.
The moment the two figures disappeared, the scene was in an uproar.
"It seems like it's really coming."
"I don't know what the specific situation is. I'm really anxious. Maybe I should just take it easy and wait here. It's really torturous."
"Things like this happen every day in the league, and with a normal heart..."
"Hey... every time the team makes a trade, I'm scared. I'm used to it."
Shannon Brown: "Yes, you can play wherever you go."
But obviously.
This sentence is not recognized by everyone.
If you are capable and there is no place for you in this team, or your growth is suppressed, then you can have this mentality.
But you've fallen out of the rotation, and it's unlikely that you'll be better off changing to another team.
even……
will be killed directly.
That's right...
I am unemployed and go home to hug my wife.
and so.
Trading is a scary thing for role players.
You can't compete with your teammates in the first place, but if you go to another team, can you compete?
It’s a fantasy!
Unless you are really lucky, a teammate will be injured when you come to the new team, or the coach is particularly optimistic about a certain ability of yours, such as defense, or you just fit the team's tactics.
In this case, you can still have some fun.
otherwise.
The result is bleak.
No one noticed that Bosh was staring at the direction where Xue Liancheng and Keith disappeared, and he was lost in thought for a long time.
And at this time.
After walking around east and west, Xue Liancheng came to the arena office area.
Keith stopped in front of an office and tapped lightly.
A vigorous voice came from inside, "Come in."
Keith didn't go in, just helped open the door.
Xue Liancheng was a little nervous when he was going through a transaction for the first time.
Take a look inside.
Wade and Spoelstra were indeed present.
The person sitting in the main seat was none other than old asshole Pat Riley, and sitting on the other side was General Manager Randy Fender.
Riley smiled slightly and said hello, "Hi...Xue, come and sit."
Xue Liancheng nodded and sat down at the desk.
Since joining the Heat, he and Riley have met less than once. His impression of the old bastard is not good, but it can't be said to be bad either.
It just feels like Riley can give people an invisible pressure. His hooked nose and sharp eyes give off a gloomy look.
Ok……
In one sentence, although he didn't do anything bad to him, he didn't look like a good person.
Very subjective judgment.
of course.
Everything comes from Riley's past experience of crazily squeezing Wade and Mourning. Of course, he is afraid that one day he will follow in the footsteps of his two predecessors.
and so.
He had always been wary, even defensive, of Riley.
but.
What he was more curious about now was why Riley invited him here.
Generally speaking.
If the team presses the trade button, it will look at who is needed or who should be traded based on the team's business philosophy and coaching tactical system.
In other words, President Riley, General Manager Randy Fender, and Spoelstra will make the decision.
Players?
The most they can do is to seek the opinion of the star player Wade.
Just ask.
I'm not asking you to interfere in the transaction.
But now, they called him here, knowing that Bosh didn't even have this kind of treatment.
this time.
He even wondered if he was the one who wanted to trade?
But soon.
He rejected it.
If you want to trade him, you don't need to ask him to come over at all. After the transaction is completed, just notify him directly and let him pack his bags. No need to do anything extra.
and so……
Why is it?
Riley's voice interrupted his thoughts, "Xue, what do you want to drink?"
Xue Liancheng: "Uh... boil the water."
Riley slowly walked over to help get a glass of water.
After sitting down again, he glanced at Randy Fender on the other side.
Randy Fender understood it and spoke up, "Xue, that's it. We are ready to conduct a transaction. The basic framework has been negotiated. Now we just want to ask for your opinion."
Xue Liancheng rolled his eyes and said very speechlessly, "I respect any choice the team makes."
The framework has been discussed, so what else do you ask him to do?
It’s unnecessary…
