The Point Guard is Here

Making trades in the NBA is not an easy task.

But things got easier when Sprewell boasted that he had trade advisory authority in the Knicks because of his close friendship with new leader Jack.

Who wouldn't want to make a deal with someone who has a bad mind, even if he seems a little grumpy.

Rauiot commented: This is the ignorance of capitalists. As long as they see benefits, they will not even take into account the law.

To be fair, New York City is a great place. The largest city in the world, who doesn’t want to live a prosperous life here?

Fanshee's fellow rookie, Donyel Marshall, arrived.

He had just finished a terrible season with the Chicago Bulls, and he and the Bulls hated each other. He originally planned to go to Toronto to get a job, and it seemed that Vince Carter thought highly of him.

However, that place was so remote, it was like being exiled.

Therefore, when he learned that Sprewell actually had the right to advise on transactions, he quickly came to see him.

Sprewell also patted his chest and assured him that he could definitely handle this matter.

In fact, Fan Xi also gave him this face.

The Knicks lack big men.

Although Marshall can only be regarded as an elite-level insider at best, there is too little center talent in this era... Yao Shuan was able to establish himself when he entered the league, and he had back-and-forth with O'Neal. The reason is...except for the fig leaf of O'Neal, there is no one inside the United States.

There seems to be a transition to the power forward era now.

After discussions between Fanshie and Isiah Thomas, the Smiling Assassins originally wanted to give Marshall a five-year, 20 million contract. Fan Xi believes that even if he is given 17 million in five years, he will happily accept it.

Sure enough, Fan Xi was proved right in the end.

Fanci doesn't want to squeeze players.

Just because... James Dolan has such a great relationship with him.

Got Donyel Marshall.

The Knicks' insiders for the new season are determined: Antonio McDyess, Donyel Marshall, and Kurt Thomas.

That's four, if Laoiot is a player.

At the same time, Fanshie is still in contact with Mutombo.

Uncle Mu and Iverson reached the peak of their careers in 2001, and then his condition gradually declined. He was traded to the Nets last season, but he never got a chance to play. It has now been reported that the Nets want to buy out his contract.

Vansh approaches him. Once the Nets buy him out, the Knicks are willing to offer him a two-year contract.

Of course Uncle Mu really wants to stay in New York City, and he even wants to play with his former little brother.

Although he also knows that his competitive state is far from what it used to be, he can maintain efficient defense for about 10 minutes in each game. He feels that he has this condition.

Basically, the inside story is over.

Fan Xi began to think about outside matters.

Strictly speaking, Sprewell is really the perfect deputy. He is one of the rare shooting guards who does not occupy the ball. His offensive methods are mainly assault and counterattack. He is not the kind of defender who holds the ball for a long time and then solves the battle in the mid-range.

Moreover, he gives it his all on defense, has tremendous energy, and is willing to do the dirty work as long as it doesn't bring him to an emotional breakdown.

Few managers can handle him.

This is why Isiah Thomas traded him and kept Allan Houston.

Fanci and Alan Houston have no grudges. When Alan Houston and Grant Hill formed a double-gun team in the Detroit Pistons, the two sides had some dealings and were polite to each other.

However, the Knicks do not have room for Alan Houston.

It's just that Alan Houston's contract is too big.

Only fools like the Knicks can give a shooter hundreds of millions in salary, so trading him has become a difficult task. There are only a few players on the planet who can match Alan Houston's high annual salary, and even fewer can be replaced.

At this time, Fila, Fanshie's former partner, came to visit. Although Fila had received a sum of cash from Fanshie before, his recent business conditions were still not very good. Their top star Grant Hill had been suffering from injuries. Repeatedly, the Orlando Magic are also a scourge.

Lately they had heard that Sprewell had been messing around.

Since madmen can do whatever they want, why can't Jack do so more directly?

Let the Knicks take over Grant Hill's contract, maybe he will be moved?

These words really reminded Fan Xi.

Grant Hill is still very strong. When he is healthy, his level is very high, and his style of play does not occupy the ball so much, and his shooting rate is very high. It shows that someone who can partner with McGrady can still average more than 20 points per game.

Fancy thought about simply bringing Grant Hill over and extorting some draft picks from them.

Just do it.

After Isiah Thomas heard Fan Xi's proposal, he even reached out and touched Fan Xi's forehead. He thought trading Alan Houston for Grant Hill was a ridiculous idea, but Fancy was soon convinced and he got James Dolan to chat to him.

James Dolan is totally on Fancy's side.

But the Smiling Assassin was so angry that he thought this deal would bring a heavy salary burden.

But Fan Xi said that Alan Houston has a bigger burden. They are both glass people, but Alan Houston looks healthier now.

Thomas said Fanci was cursing.

Fanci said this is true, and he believes that the Magic's draft pick will be valuable, because even if they get Alan Houston, the Magic will not have a good record.

Maybe he can get the No. 1 pick next year.

Isiah Thomas finally gave in.

He first communicated with Orlando Magic head coach Doc Rivers. Doc Rivers heard that the Knicks were going to take Grant Hill away. He was so happy. When he learned that Alan Houston would be brought over, , he praised God and Isaiah Thomas.

Isiah Thomas said angrily: You should praise Jack, this was entirely his idea.

When Doc Rivers heard that it was Fan Xi's idea, he was a little worried. After all, Jack is far smarter than Isiah Thomas. Such a deal is obviously Thomas's handiwork, but Jack...will there be a trap?

When he was communicating with the general manager, the general manager told him: Do we have anything to lose?

of course not.

So, the deal went through very quickly.

The Knicks sent Alan Houston, who looked healthy, to the Magic for Grant Hill, who looked unhealthy.

Of course, the Magic will also send draft picks.

It's just that they were stingy and didn't send the 2004 draft pick, but the 2005 and 2007 draft picks were handed over to New York without reservation, and they were unprotected first-round picks.

They thought they were going to be a strong team right away.

To this end, they also gave an extra US$1 million in cash to match the salary gap between the two.

Grant Hill has remained in New York.

He was dealing with complications from his knee injury. A bacterial infection he developed during knee surgery in Orlando nearly killed him. Therefore, he insisted on going to New York for treatment.

Now that he has basically recovered from his complications, his knee injury may still require a period of recovery.

Fan Xi suggested that he not force a comeback, or even continue to be reimbursed for the season.

Fan Xi has seen how terrifying a healthy Hill can be, so he feels there is no need to let a Hill who has not fully recovered appear on the court. This is drinking poison to quench his thirst.

Grant Hill was so moved that he asked Fan Xi a question: Can I win the championship if I follow you?

Grant Hill is still extremely popular in North America.

At that time, he, Anfernee Hardaway and Fan Xi were the three most popular kings. It's just that they haven't had a good time over the years.

Fan Xi was doing a lot of work in Los Angeles, with scandals spreading all day long. On the court, he was overshadowed by the four major shooting guards.

The two first-generation Jordan successors repeatedly entered the cycle of injuries, causing today's young fans to label them as highly paid and incompetent.

Therefore, my mood has also changed.

Grant Hill was so fierce in the past, and he was determined to conquer the world as soon as he debuted. With that sharp pace and dunks, is he just like the current LeBron James? What's more, he went to college for four more years than James, can also play the piano, and is elegant.

Now, Grant Hill has admitted his decline invisibly, and he is willing to embrace Fan Xi's lap.

Fan Xi said with a smile: The championship is a must.

Out of the ward. Fan Xi had a feeling that time is not forgiving.

Who would have thought that the last time he saw Anfernee Hardaway, this guy would take the initiative to come over and say hello to Fan Xi?

It can be seen that the previous grievances are all gone.

In the past seven years, the grievances and hatreds circulating in the world are no longer what they were back then. Now there is internal strife in OK, and the four major shooting guards are debating... whether the little emperor James can rule the entire league...

This deal is like putting a firecracker on cow dung.

The originally calm grassroots period immediately became very lively. Experts from all walks of life took action, one by one, verbally criticized the Knicks in various media, and sprayed the Knicks into a ball of paste.

It means that they were crazy enough to sign Van Hey for US$100 million, but now they actually traded away the CIC king Alan Houston, leaving the madman with a brain problem, and now they actually traded him with a leg problem.

what happened?

Are the Knicks going to be completely destroyed?

Can Isiah Thomas do some personnel work?

The Smiling Assassin was aggrieved at this time.

But he is a loyal man, although he does not agree with the deal. However, he still carried it.

Fan Xi admired Thomas for this.

Unlike Elgin Baylor, that cowhide-making machine, that guy was hard-working and worked hard without complaint. However, besides not being able to do the things Fan Xi told him well, he was also always able to shirk responsibility.

Fan Xi had long thought that he was hopeless.

Better still is Isiah Thomas, this guy takes the blame the best in the world.

He even found time to have a fight with Dennis Rodman in the Atlantic Ocean.

Rodman retired. This maverick and sensationalist finally retired.

His retirement is a great news for David Stern, as there is one less thorn in the league's side.

He is currently promoting his new book, which he says will be a memoir of his four-way love affair with Madonna, Pippen and Van Leer.

The media is looking forward to it.

Then, he went around talking nonsense. He said that without Fanci, Madonna and Fannie would not have been able to make it. He also said that the reason why Fanci was able to defeat the Bulls in the finals was because both he and Pippen were influenced by Madonna...

This wave of publicity made Buckley so angry that he wanted to beat him, saying that he was confusing right and wrong and making a mess.

And Isiah Thomas took action directly.

The two men got into a scuffle in the lobby of the Atlantic Casino.

The Smiling Assassin proved why he's the boss of the Bad Boys when he ripped Rodman's lip ring off.

The reason why the two fought was also very strange.

Originally they were sitting at a table playing cards and were very happy.

As a result, Rodman didn't know what was wrong. He insisted that Thomas went to New York to sign Fan Xi because he wanted to enter the entertainment industry and get close to women.

Thomas asked if you can have some dreams.

Rodman scolded him, Isn't your dream just to get more women?

The two of them started fighting.

The police were also alerted.

In the end, Thomas was awarded $20,000 in compensation.

Afterwards, Thomas said that this guy was just here to play tricks.

Rodman said he cursed the Knicks to never win a championship, and said that Fancy would never go far.

Everyone's original relationship was completely shattered.

Fan Xi had a pretty good relationship with Rodman before, and he didn't say anything even about Fan Le and Madonna. But now Rodman said this, which made Fan Xi angry.

Fanci told Isiah Thomas privately that I will definitely let the New York Knicks win the championship within three years.

Little did they know that the two of them were chatting in a coffee shop and were secretly recorded by reporters.

The audio is released quickly.

Fan Xi's private commitment immediately turned into a public commitment.

It quickly caused an uproar.

Knicks fans are naturally excited. It is better for core players and general managers to discuss championships than women, right?

Moreover, New York has been in decline for so many years, and it's time to win a championship trophy.

However, people outside don’t think so.

They feel that the Knicks are just messing around now. How can a failed team and a failed star create a championship?

I really think that Shark Shifo, the four forwards, and the four defenders are vegetarians.

The Knicks are now a loser league.

A gossip star who has been standing still for 7 years.

A madman with mental problems.

A former Jordan successor with leg problems.

Plus a bunch of old, weak, sick and disabled, want to win the championship?

Is there such a legendary thing in the world?

We still have to act in accordance with the basic operating laws of the world.

Faced with these sarcastic voices, Fan Xi ignored them.

He responded with silence and signed the old guy Mutombo.

The next time is spent training with the madman.

Time goes by faster and faster.

The training camp for the new season will soon begin.

The anticipated 2003-2004 season has finally arrived.
