American Political Center Washington!
General Manager's Office in Verizon Center Arena!
"The Richard! He is a lunatic!"
"Absolutely can not agree to his request, this lunatic should be put on fire!"
"Not enough for the first round of the show?! Must be lottery signed?! God, this greedy maniac!"
"Even if you want to promise the lunatic, if it is only the first round pick, then it is okay to say that we still have a 22nd pick, Lotto sign?! We still want it ourselves!"
Half an hour after Carlisle made the call, the management of the Bullets was summoned in the office of the general manager to discuss the countermeasures overnight!
They really want to drive Strickland, top point guards take two top insiders, this is definitely a dream combination, the bullet team management can drool when they think about it...
But the Richard, they made an offer that made them stare...
"Okay, guys! Be quiet, this meeting is not for scolding Richard Madman tonight, we have more important things to do!"
"That's how to win Strickland!" Bullet General Manager Erni signaled everyone to calm down.
"Erny, Richard quoted this offer, it is difficult for us to provide!"
"Richard, this is the lion's big opening..."
I just finished saying this, and this executive may feel that something was wrong, and closed his mouth...
The big opening of the lion is really not counted. How can Speed Strickland be an All-Star player, and Rashid Wallace, who is also the main body of the transaction?
Although it seems to have potential, but after all, there are only 10+5 stats per game. Who knows where his limit potential is? !
What if the limit potential is 11+6?
At least until now, Rashid Wallace has not proven his potential to have an All-Star level!
And lotto lottery, it is indeed very valuable, but this thing is completely the nature of buying lottery tickets, otherwise, it will not be called lotto lottery, which means lottery itself......
There are indeed a lot of winning cases, but the situation of losing money is more common!
Not to mention, just in the 1996 draft year, there are several teams who have lost their lottery...
Another example is last season's draft. After finishing a season, the rookie performance of the first few picks is okay, but the rookie performance from the eighth to thirteenth picks, except for Barry, averaged 10.2 points per game. None of the others scored in double figures, and there were even three or four points per game...
The key Richard now doesn't have to lick his face. He has to get the top five or top three lottery picks, as long as it is a lottery pick!
So no matter from which point of view, Richard's required chips are definitely not a lion's mouth!
"Okay, just complaining, can't solve any problems!"
"Strikeland, we are determined to win. Only the Blazers are willing to let go of such top point guards in the league. We can only trade with them, but the Blazers have more choices. Won't sell it!"
Elny said very calmly.
The scene calmed down, and the Bullets' executives also realized what Erni said, that is, the Bullets had no choice, but the Blazers had a way!
This transaction negotiation, the Bullets fell into the passive from the beginning!
"The lottery lottery requested by Richard, we don't have it in hand, but we can change it. It's really not possible. Pull a team with lottery signing and go to a three-way deal with the Blazers!"
"In short, Strickland, we must get it!"
"Linham, you are responsible for contacting the teams that hold lottery picks to see who is willing to hand over their lottery picks!"
"If it doesn't work, Parker can be put on the shelf!"
"By the way, contact those teams after the tenth pick as much as possible. The top ten picks will definitely make us bleed!"
Finally, Erni set the tone for this meeting, and the management under his hands began to get busy!
……
And Richard is not idle next...
First of all, it’s the rookie trial training.
Although Richard feels that he doesn’t need to test players at all, he still has to go through the procedure. There can never be a player who doesn’t try out. When the candidates show up, a group of people will be called in the hula, which is really unreasonable... …
But for this job, Richard did not have to worry too much, just leave it to Stevens to do it!
The current role of Stevens is probably equivalent to that of Brownie before.
Choose and inform the candidates for the trial training, this job is suitable for Stevens.
In addition to the trial training, trading to a top five pick in the second round is a top priority. Richard has asked Stevens to contact several teams with the right picks. !
Of the five teams with the first five picks in the second round, the Philadelphia 76ers rejected Richard’s trade application without a word!
Did not even give the opportunity to negotiate...
The 76ers are rebuilding every day and every year. They regard the pick right as their destiny and want to get the first pick from the second round. This is almost the same as the first round pick. It is undoubtedly very difficult. UU reading www.uukanshu. com
On the Bucks side, Richard didn’t even let Carlisle contact him. This team has taken Richard’s disgusting and completely unwilling to take care of it...
The remaining Raptors, Grizzlies, and Timberwolves said they could talk. After all, they also know about the second-round draft pick. If you want to choose a strong player, you definitely need to hit big luck...
The Raptors' offer was for the Trail Blazers to take out James Robinson, and then the Raptors sent the second overall pick in the second round plus Assi Earle with an annual salary of $1.04 million...
happens to be James Robinson’s current annual salary is also more than one million, reaching a trade balance.
looks like an extremely good deal, which is more beneficial to the Trail Blazers. After the two sides exchanged a player with an annual salary of one million, the Blazers also got a second-round pick...
But such a quotation was directly rejected by Richard!
Because this is a loss-making business!
In Richard's memory, James Robinson will be the main trader for the Trail Blazers in exchange for a quasi-all-star player!
Robinson himself was extremely young. In 1993, he was selected by the Blazers in the first round with 23 picks. Later, although he has not been given too many performance opportunities, the data and the performance on the court are good.
is considered a promising newcomer!
And Asi Earl's strength is a mess. If it is a deal, Earl definitely won't get a minute of playing time in the Blazers lineup...
Therefore, such a deal will ultimately be a trailblazer loss...
Of course, it can not be said that it is a loss, it should be said that it has not reached the maximum benefit!
After all, the second-round pick is likely to bring Richard to join the big capital, no matter how hard it is to lose!
