Legendary Basketball Tycoon

"As for Kobe Bryant, everyone is quite clear. New York’s new favorite. At this time, unless Bruce is an idiot, he will trade Kobe Bryant. Anyone on the Hans can trade Kobe Bryant. Bryant is something that the Blues will not take out, and Kobe Bryant and Bruce have a close personal relationship, and after the 1996 draft, Bruce immediately helped Kobe Bryant to become the captain of the team, you know The boss of the team used to be Alonzo Mourning, and Bruce dared to make him the captain when Kobe Bryant was new to the league. It is enough to show that we value him. On the other hand, who is the Knicks. , Who can make Patrick Ewing hand over the boss of the team to Stephen Marbury, I don’t think you dare so much, including the boss."

"Let's take the saying of Bruce in his country. Bruce has a good understanding of Kobe Bryant, so Kobe Bryant cannot be traded by any team in the league at present, unless the Hans really do not have the ability to help Kobe Bryant in the future. Bryant won the championship, otherwise I believe Kobe Bryant will not leave the Han people easily."

Jeff Van Gundy has been in New York for so long, and he has almost understood the internal situation of his rival Han in the same city. It can be said that since the Han Chinese announced that he will rebuild next season, he has used his brain to study the Han from the inside to the outside, from the management to the players. Nine is no more than ten, just wait to see if you can dig out the players you want from the Han.

And Glen Rice is the player Jeff Van Gundy needs most at the moment. The small forward has always been the biggest problem for the Knicks. He must work with general manager Scott Wyden to find a way to reinforce this position. Otherwise, the team still can't go far next season.

Of course, there is another player in Jeff Van Gundy's heart that he didn't tell the people present, that is, Mark Jackson, the backup point guard of the Han people. Mark Jackson was selected by the Knicks himself, and he has played for the Knicks for five years. It can be said that Mark Jackson still has feelings for the Knicks, plus his strength is pretty good. The above is a powerful supplement.

But here comes the problem. The Knicks have a lot of point guards, not to mention Stephen Marbury, who is born in New York. Greg Anthony, Chris Childs, and Charlie Ward are sitting on the bench. These three substitutes, it can be said that there is no position for Mark Jackson. In fact, the most important thing is that the Knicks have a lot of players with big contracts, and if Mark Jackson is traded, the owner James Dolan will have to pay. The money is even higher, and the combined money of the three substitutes is not as much as Mark Jackson, so Jeff Van Gundy did not dare to easily say the idea of ​​trading Mark Jackson back.

The Knicks executives in the conference room were silent after listening to what Jeff Van Gundy said. They didn't know what to say. The owner of the team is James Dolan after all. This angry little fat man is not a good thing. Lord, during this period of time, the Knicks executives and the head coach team have been scolded by the little fat guy, so they dare not say anything to refute it. After all, everyone does not want to be scolded by the little fat guy.

The people below didn't say a word, while James Dolan, who was sitting in the main seat, kept tapping his fingers, gloomily in love, and seemed to be thinking about something.

"Boss, if this is me, then we should still propose a deal to the Han people, even if it only deals with Glen Rice! As for Kobe Bryant, let's ask about it, even if the Han people disagree. The transaction is okay," Scott Raiden said, lifting his glasses.

He has to come out and say something. It’s okay for everyone below to speak up. It’s just that if he, the general manager of the team, doesn’t speak anymore, he will give the little fat man another chance to scold him. He doesn’t want to be scolded anymore. .

James Dolan nodded after listening to Scott Layden's advice, and it seemed that this was all he could do now.

"I repeat, I now trade out those unnecessary players on the Knicks' side. Don't stop trading them next season because they have players from New York. Now the Knicks have already gone. After the stage where players from New York are most needed, it’s okay to trade. New York is a big city and there is no shortage of stars here. The goal of our Knicks in the next stage is to join the Knicks as long as they are capable. I No one refuses to come, so even if it’s a deal with other teams, some useless players should be cleaned up for me, understand?!"

"As for the Hans, as much as they can trade from them, I will not refuse anyone. In short, I do not hope that the Hans will be able to dominate the Madison Garden arena next season and use their overall strength. Depletion is your biggest task right now. There can only be one NBA team in New York, and that is our Knicks!"

James Dolan got up and left immediately. He handed over the follow-up to the team general manager Scott Wyden. If Scott Wyden can't do this thing well, he doesn't mind. Change the general manager, he has money!

...

The Knicks are thinking about how to trade good players from the Hans in the same city to supplement themselves. On the other side, what are the Lakers planning? !

The Lakers are actually similar to the Knicks, but they have a big picture. Jerry West not only looks at Kobe Bryant and Glen Rice, but also looks at Hans coach Paul West. Farr, as for the two-tower combination of Hans Alonzo Mourning and Kevin Garnett, because the Lakers have Shaquille O’Neal and Verratti Divac, a power-type interior combination, so it’s not so good. urgent need.

No, Jerry West deliberately went to Old Bath’s villa to plot something.

"Jerry, what kind of medicine do you think Bruce is selling? The Hans have four All-Star players in their hands. He still wants to rebuild next season. Will there be any conspiracy in this?!" Old Bass took a sip of his cigar. Asked slowly.

In the opinion of Old Buss, Bruce must have some conspiracy, otherwise, would his head be squeezed by the door to make such a decision? Unless it is a draft year in 1998, it would be too much for Bruce to do this. It's hard to understand.

Sr. Buss believes that Bruce definitely wants to put the team's valuable players on the shelves and trade with other teams in the league through reconstruction, and prepare to make a blockbuster in the 1998 NBA Draft? !

This is possible. After all, the Hans' draft drafts over the years have been quite impressive. They have either selected high-quality players or All-Star players. This really surprised many people, including himself.

And if Bruce really takes out his current players to trade for signings, it means that he must be plotting a rookie in 1998. This is definitely big news.
