The suspension this time really made everyone frightened.
Because the thief didn't say anything about the lockout period, the labor and management almost fought each other. Looking at that feeling at the time, maybe the NBA will be permanently shut down from now on.
But fortunately, at the last moment, the two sides reached a consensus and each backed down a step to allow the new labor agreement to be completed and the NBA to continue.
But because the lockout lasted until November, many games could only be missed. Even if all the NBA staff worked overtime, there was no way to restore the missed games to the schedule.
66 games, this is the number of regular seasons this season. The staff of the league tried their best. Looking at this season, rigorously is simply out of place. The number of back-to-backs for each team has increased, and the rest time between games Also reduced accordingly.
This kind of schedule is really a test for teams with an average age.
Conversely, a team with a small average age and a majority of young people will like this schedule very much.
The 76ers are also a young team. The team is basically not old. Last season, there was another Brand who was slightly older. This season, Yao Ming is just 31. The other main players are basically on rookie contracts.
It means that in the next two to three years, the 76ers will continue to take the rookie bonus.
Therefore, the reduced season may be a good thing for them.
"Brand, go and take the straw back to Philadelphia."
As soon as the new labor agreement was completed, General Manager Smith hurriedly said to Coach Stevens, hurry up and get McGee, this first-class center model is a great help to the understaffed 76ers.
Originally, if following the historical trajectory, McGee should have been sent to the Nuggets as a bargaining chip in the Wizards Exchange at this time.
However, because this year the Nuggets won Vucevic with the pick in the middle of the first round, they did not accept McGee. The Wizards traded to Nene with other chips.
There was no use value, and it was a loss if you hit your hand, so when the lockout ended, the Wizards bought out McGee.
The current McGee is just a chicken rib. In the free market, no one wants to take him in.
A game can only be played for ten minutes at most. Why should I give you a middle-class contract?
So McGee was very distressed. He felt that he might really not be able to play in the NBA.
"Javier, don't give up, you are a genius! A real genius!"
McGee's agent is not bad, even if the situation is so bad now, the agent still did not give up on him, but tried to recommend him everywhere.
"If I were a genius, I wouldn't be so miserable."
McGee smiled bitterly. When he was just drafted that year, he really felt like a genius, but it turned out that the scouts were all nonsense.
Can't concentrate and lose focus in every game. Which team will want this kind of person?
"Javier, you... wait, I'll answer the call."
McGee's agent wanted to say something, but at this moment the phone vibrated and he had to answer the phone first.
"Hello...what...really?...great, willing, willing...ok, yes, thank you so much! We will be there tomorrow!"
"What's so happy?"
Han Miao was a little puzzled. Although his agent does not have many players, he is definitely not the only one. At this time, he is so happy. Someone else must have good news.
"JaVale, you wouldn't expect it." The agent put down the phone and McGee said.
"I don't think of anything? Is there any team that wants me?"
McGee didn't believe in himself a little bit now. He was an optimistic child who was so optimistic, but now he was totally stunned.
"Yes! Someone wants you! Philadelphia! It's China Han from Philadelphia. It was his call just now!"
Han Miao?
McGee still knew Han Miao. Although he was not very focused, he still knew Han Miao's fame.
"He is looking for us? What does that mean? Let me be his little brother?"
McGee never thought of being Han Miao. The main reason was that when the Wizards, McGee and the U.S. League played privately last year, U.S. League was basically hanged, so McGee didn’t think there were too many Chinese teams. Awesome.
Of course, Han Miao is not the same as the United Arab Emirates, and in the point guard, Han Miao is the upstart assist king. All the active point guards in the world add up, and there is no one who can compete with Han Miao.
And Philadelphia has ushered in Yao Ming this year, forming the first Chinese team in history.
Gathering in a team as a teammate, this is the first time for a Chinese player in so many years.
And the most terrible thing is that these two are both starters.
"Philadelphia let me go, how to arrange me? Let me play a few minutes?"
Because there is no way to play too much time, McGee is worried that the new owner will accept this problem.
"They said, you are Yao Ming's first substitute, an inside firefighter, and will not play without the ball. In terms of time, because they know your condition, they will definitely not let you play for too long."
After listening to McGee, he said that it was okay. The conditions were pretty good. Otherwise, he would have no idea that he should say something.
"Then go, let's go to Philadelphia."
McGee quickly made up his mind. He is a dutiful son. He has no salary recently. He feels very sorry for his mother. Now Philadelphia is willing to sign himself. He is really grateful.
"So you agreed?"
The agent did not expect that McGee would agree so soon.
"Otherwise? I feel helpless when I watch you frown in front of me every day at home."
McGee feels that if he finishes things earlier, the agent's pressure can also be reduced.
In fact, McGee is a good boy. It is because of this congenital disease that he cannot achieve higher achievements.
Otherwise, what's the matter with Whiteside there, McGee is the real Uncle Mu.
And he is also a slightly stronger offensive Uncle Mu.
...
Philadelphia, 76ers head coach office.
"I got McGee~EbookFREE.me~ as a substitute for Yao."
Stevens said to the two people in front of him.
"McGee, he's good."
Yao Ming is also very impressed with McGee, running fast, jumping high, and once overshadowed Yao Ming's shots. Although it is an interference ball, it is enough to show McGee's ability.
"McGee does have talent, coach, you won't find a substitute because Hassan is gone? Don't you know he is sick?"
Han Miao felt that McGee now is a white-skinned Whiteside. The difference is that McGee is taller than his physical condition.
"Oh, don't bully other people because it's sick. I personally think he is quite suitable."
If Stevens is killed, he won't tell you that McGee is the person named by the general manager.
Moreover, after Han Miao and Stevens, another "chosen man"...
