NBA Absolute Flood Control Dam

"Big Shark? Will the Grizzlies release people?" Savor asked in surprise.

"Let's talk first." Cole said.

"My company still has things. You have to pay close attention to the transaction. We are behind other teams. We can't even drink the soup."

Savor nodded, he still trusts him if he can make Cole the general manager.

Cole's luck is good. He won five rings in his career. He hopes Cole will bring luck to the Suns, just like Frank brought the Hammers to the Suns.

After Savor left, Cole immediately contacted the Grizzlies general manager, Brian Colangelo, who also just took up his position, the former CEO of the Suns.

"Hey, Steve, I'm very happy to receive your call."

"me too."

The two are acquaintances, they met in the Suns, and after the greetings, they stepped into the subject.

"Do you want O'Neal? It's not cheap, what chips can you give?" Brian began to ponder the Suns' chips.

O'Neal's annual salary of 20 million, the Suns want him, the salary of the Suns players, unless it is Marion, for other people, it takes a bunch of people to get it.

"Kurt Thomas, Burris Dior, Antonio McDyess, you can pay cash for the extra."

With three substitutes inside for the Sharks, Cole quickly gave the chips.

When Brian Colangelo heard this, he shook his head repeatedly and said: "Antonio McDyess and Burris Dior don't need us. You can change to Marion and the deal can be concluded."

"Marion?" Cole began to make a deal in his heart.

Without Marion, David Lee can go up. The latter's scoring ability is not weak, and the rebounding ability is also very strong. He thinks it can.

In addition, David Lee has a tonnage in the paint, and the defense is now honed. Without Marion, he believes that David Lee can be included in the starting lineup.

Brian Colangelo’s consideration is that the Sharks are a year old, and the combination speed with Gasol is too slow. If Gasol and Marion are allowed to join forces and Kurt Thomas is a substitute, it should be even better. it is good.

The two hung up the phone and began to make final considerations.

At 3 pm on the 29th, after the application was officially approved, the Suns and Grizzlies announced the deal.

Marion was a little confused when he received the notice that he had been traded.

He called Li Ba and asked: "Hammer, do you know?"

"what do you know?"

Li Ba is training on the virtual interface. He wants to take advantage of the time he retires to raise the level of flycatcher.

"I was traded, and O'Neal changed, to the Grizzlies." Marion was a little frustrated.

Li Ba was also a little startled when he heard that, what did the management want to do, trade Marion out, and there are no internal starters. Do you want to rebuild?

In his opinion, the current lineup does not need to be moved at all. If Kurt Thomas or David Lee are brought up, they can also play a game, and there is no problem in entering the playoffs.

"Go and go. The Grizzlies have Marbury, which is stronger than the Suns next season. Maybe you can get another ring over there. The four rings are in your hand, all of which are the main force. As long as you stay healthy, You can charge sky-high prices for a contract." Li Ba smiled.

Marion was startled, but also smiled: "I hope so."

After finishing the call, Li Ba entered the training again.

There is a lot of time now, and he is confident that he will complete the upgrade within six months, so he invests a lot of time every day.

O'Neal changed his club again, whether it was him, the media, or the fans, it didn't cause any disturbance, because he was used to it.

After completing the deal, Cole began to consider the issue of the back line again.

Rondo is weak and defensive, but his offensive ability is too weak and he was completely emptied. This caused Li Ba to be double-teamed in the paint zone. This did not meet his team building requirements. The defense he wanted was both offense and defense, so he would Rondo put on the shelf.

Soon the team asked the price, he weighed it, chose the Celtics, traded Rondo for the first round of the Celtics next year, and its starting player Delonte West.

West is a combo guard. Last season, he averaged 12+4+4, 1.1 steals per game, offensive and defensive, three-pointers and mid-range shots. He can pull apart. He is more suitable for the Suns' tactics than Rondo. .

The Suns have no master control. Although Weston is traded for, Cole still wants to bring in Chauncey Billups.

Soon, Billups' agent Andy Miller received a call from Cole.

"Chauncey, the Suns opened a five-year, $65 million contract, what's your opinion?" Then Miller asked Billups.

"The Suns don't have the hammer, aren't they very competitive next season?" Billups has some doubts.

"They have O'Neal, they are still competitive, but I think it will be better for you to go to the Cavaliers. The Cavaliers are okay inside, the back line is weaker, and you have a lot of room to play. Moreover, they give a bigger contract. , The dollar is sincere, so the Cavaliers are more sincere than the Pistons and the Suns." Miller said.

Billups considered it for a while, and what Miller said really made sense ~www.wuxiaspot.com~On the 30th, the Cavaliers announced that they had signed the free agent Chauncey Billups with a five-year, $72 million contract.

Time enters July, and reinforcement continues.

On the 1st, Vince Carter announced the renewal of the Nets, signing a six-year $84 million contract.

On the same day, thanks to the reinforcement of the back line, the Cavaliers finally completed their contract extension with LeBron James.

These two signings made the Cavaliers, who are good in their own strengths, a good improvement, and they have a lot of attraction to the free market.

The Cavaliers then renewed their efforts, first renewing Varejao, then signing Morris Williams and Gerald Wallace from the free market.

In this way, the Cavaliers' salary exceeds the luxury by nearly tens of millions of dollars, and it will cost nearly 30 million dollars a year.

However, the Cavaliers' guard team has also become one of the best guards in the league, thus raising the strength of the entire team to a new level and becoming a championship-level team.

As the time entered mid-July, the Li Ba family still stayed quietly in Napa Valley.

The girl's condition is very stable, there is a trend of improvement, and the family's mood is good.

The name of the castle has long been changed, and Li Ba has been replaced by Senbei Castle.

However, Sifu Winery and wine brands have not yet changed, but they are already in progress.

At the end of July, the name change was completed, Sifu Winery officially became history, and Senbei Winery was born.

At the same time, the wine brand was changed to Senbei.

There is a certain risk, because Sifu is already a mature top brand, and Senbei is nothing.

However, this is required by the contract and must be replaced, because Sifu is someone’s surname, so you will definitely not be allowed to continue using it.

The brand change immediately exposed the news of Li Ba in Napa Valley, and reporters swarmed in.
