: 846. A human touch that makes people love and hate

"Even if you trade Rudy, I don't want to ask why, and why I only get such a return, but why is the Spurs traded? They only have one strong front and center to complete the system, why would Rudy Go there? You tell me why..." Sun Ce growled wildly towards the phone.
At 5 pm on June 19, 2011, Google Sports reporter Woking Nawowski broke the news that the Spurs and Grizzlies reached a deal.
The details of the initial exposure were Spurs using the Mavericks' 26th overall pick this year from the Rockets, the Spurs’ own unsecured first-round picks in 2013 and 2015, and non-guaranteed contracts next season. Alonzo Kee and Gary Neal, a 10-year draft draft with two years of partial contract protection, gave the two non-guaranteed contracts to the Grizzlies, and the Spurs had room to get from the Grizzlies. Rudy Gay.
This transaction, in the eyes of the fans, is comparable to the Lakers using Kwame Brown to rob Big Gasol from their Grizzlies. It is not about the value of the transaction. The first three rounds are still eye-catching, but Gay. Effect on Spurs!
After Sun Ce growled, Chris Wallace at the end of the phone said: "Rudy wants to go to the Spurs. He wants to give Paul the starting spot. He is worried that he hasn't played for a year and he can't get in like Paul. Our current system."
"He wants to start with Paul, how good are you to trade him to the Timberwolves, Pistons, Bobcats..." Sun Ce continued to spray wildly.
"We respect his ideas and hope that he can have a good future. We are competing for the championship team because he didn't play for a year and sent him to the weak team for the draft pick, which is not appropriate..." Chris Wallace said weakly.
Indeed, after such an operation, he also felt quite mentally disabled.
But...their team has always been like this, let him come again, he may still do so.
Moreover, the management unanimously felt that Paul-George was more suitable for partnering with Sun Ce than the too casual minded Guy, and he had begun planning to support Paul George, and Guy had been included in the scope of the transaction, which can be said to be entirely because of Guy Yi shoulder injury reimbursement caused by one year, always feel a little sorry Guy.
The three first rounds are not bad, but if you give the Grizzlies a full offseason, talk slowly and let the Spurs have enough time to find a way to use the future draft picks to merge and trade to one or two possible joys. Through the draft picks, but it is more than ten days before the lockout, who would be silly to trade with them at this time?
If you pull on other teams, when they know that the Grizzlies are going to trade Guy to the Spurs, it's good that they don't stumbling over to make the Grizzlies less rewarded.
This is not a game. You want others to contribute to the high draft picks. Why?
Just like the Cavaliers, just this past season, their first-round draft picks were with the Grizzlies. They didn’t squander as they did in the original time and space, but they fought desperately to win the game. Don't want the Grizzlies to get the top three picks.
Sun Ce stopped snarling when he heard this, what did he say?
He is so good that he hurts his current thinking. He actually thinks that this kind of management is very good, and that Guy has gone to a good place, and he is also happy for it... However, from the perspective of "business", it is a good loss , The enemy.
After panting for a while, Sun Ce said: "Well, I know."
Sun Ce is preparing to hang up the phone. The other end of the phone quickly said: "Noah, you wait, we have another deal..."
Sun Ce didn't wait for the other side to finish speaking directly and joked: "Are you ready to send warmth again?"
"Send warmth... This adjective is really too much."
"Speak, who are you going to send?"
"We agreed to contact the Mavericks a few days ago and Mike and the Mavericks reached a joint intention."
This time Sun Ce heard Chris Wallace’s words, and he didn’t care about sending warmth. He remembered that both Gasol and Grizzlies actively sent them to win the championship. Conley wanted to go to the Jazz and Gay wanted to. Going to partner with Cousins ​​seems to have almost been sent away in vain. As long as the star players are no longer in the Grizzlies management's future plans, they will choose to meet the requirements of these former star players as much as possible.
This Sun Ce has calmed down now. He can only choose to accept such a situation, saying that sending Guy to the Timberwolves is just irritating, and that Gay going to the Spurs is so suitable for his team. Sun Ce also feels good.
But what does it mean for the Mavericks to contact their own players? And it is "us", not "someone"!
Sun Ceyi asked forcefully: "Chris, will our team be dissolved?"
"This is what happened," Chris Wallace explained: "Because of an agreement between us and the Mavericks, we agreed to them. After the season, our team except you, Mark, Paul, Otterspeth, Zha Ke, and Shaun whose contract expires, they can choose one of our team players to trade, and finally Carlisle chose Mike, and Mike also wants to go to the Mavericks, he wants to have more performance opportunities, and the Mavericks agreed Deal us with Kidd."
Conley for Kidd?
Hearing this deal, Sun Ce felt weird. Whatever agreement he had, he did not lose this time. Compared with next year, he had to make some progress. Although the progress was not large, there must be progress. Conley’s potential crisis of the right to compete and Conley. Renewal is definitely not cheap. It will probably start at seven or eight million. The future contract will be bigger and bigger... Kidd is indeed more suitable for their Grizzlies.
Sun Ce paid a lot of attention to Conley, and still relied on that 150 million contract. He originally specifically checked in the time and space. Conley’s rookie contract was completed, and the contract was more than 6 million US dollars. The salary was renewed for 5 years. The contract expires in 2016. At a salary of more than 9 million US dollars, he thought that he would get a future contract of Hasan Whiteside of 5 years and 70 million and a maximum of 5 years and 90 million. Who knows he won 150 million at once...
This time and space Conley has experience in the playoffs. The characteristics of the big heart are revealed, which may be more expensive. Probably the contract renewal will be similar to the current Kidd. The transaction is also OK, and Kidd is in the current situation. Next, it is really more suitable for the Grizzlies than Conley. At least there is no need to occupy a starting position, and the experience is more sufficient. The key is that Kidd is still stronger.
Sun Ce is not surprised that the Mavericks won the championship and started trading veterans. In his view, the Mavericks have no other non-sell products except Nowitzki and Yao Ming. Yao Ming's non-sales are just commercial reasons.
just……
Sun Ce said: "I don't like partnering with Kidd."
Chris Wallace on the other side of the phone thought that Sun Ce would continue to spray, who knows that this is actually the word!
"Noah, Kidd is very suitable for us. He can complete your role in leading the rotation in the second team. It is more suitable than Mike. With such a substitute, you can play more easily, although this is a bit too much for Mike. But we think Kidd is here and our point guard line will be stronger." Chris Wallace explained.
"I know, what I said is that I don't like to play with Kidd... If I have to find a suitable player to lead the second team, I think of a person, I can try to cheat him... No , Let him agree to come to us, you don’t have to rush to complete the transaction, let them wait for a few days, you give me some time."
"Yes, this is no problem, who do you want?"
"Help me borrow the boss's plane and arrange the Phoenix route."
"watt?"
...
...
"Brother, Phoenix is ​​much more prosperous than I thought! Not worse than Los Angeles! I thought the United States is a small country except New York and Los Angeles."
"Arizona is quite strange. They used all of the state's money to build this city. Brother I lived here for a year."
"Just like us in Beijing?"
"That's almost what it means."
"So, brother, where are we going now?"
"Find Nash and abduct him to our village of Meng!"
At noon on June 20, Sun Ce and Zu Ge arrived in Phoenix on the team's private plane.
Zu Go has been on the summer vacation, so Sun Ce has to take it, even if it is not on vacation, she has to ask her to take a leave, at least looking at her heart happy, so as not to think of the wise operation of his team.
Although the human touch is full, from last night to the present, Sun Ce's media and fan comments have ridiculed their team.
Not only Sun Ce can see how strong the Spurs will be after Gay joins the Spurs. Everyone sees it. In the eyes of people, it really has the same effect as sending Gasol to the Lakers.
And the timing is different. At that time, the Grizzlies were in a bad pick. Now the Grizzlies are the second in the West, and the Spurs are the first in the West!
Although Guy sent away the strength that did not affect the Grizzlies' just-shown season, it made the already powerful Spurs stronger.
Sun Ce is more autistic. Leonard doesn't talk about defense. Leonard almost reached the 15-16 season and only had 20 points per game. It took him four years to train! It's the kind of Spurs who would prefer Leonard to use his poor singles year after year. Of course, Leonard was selected as the second defensive player in the third grade and won the best defensive player in the fourth grade. His defensive performance was earlier than Guy's performance. Much stronger.
It’s just that Guy’s physical condition and talent to play, when Popovich, it’s impossible to be better than Leonard, but it’s definitely not bad. When Sun Ce rookie season, the team can win, Guy carefully guards Both single defense and cooperative defense are excellent.
This almost directly promoted the improvement of the Spurs system, and when the troika was younger, it got an offensive enhanced version and a defensive version of the forward core.
Therefore, Sun Ce still had to look at Zu Ge and the beautiful little sister to calm down the emotion of wanting to hit someone.
...
Sun Ce had contacted Nash last night. Sun Ce came to Nash's house in a taxi. Nash was already waiting.
There was nothing to greet when I entered the living room. Nash asked directly: "You came to see me at this time, I think it's not a good thing."
"We are going to use Conley for Kidd." Sun Ce said very directly, the other party is Nash, there is no need to go around so many times.
"The Mavericks used Kidd for Conley? Are they crazy or are you crazy? But from the lineup, this is a win-win deal, they have an equally solid future point guard core, and you have better veteran substitutes. "Nash analyzed, but confused, Sun Ce said what this is doing.
"Steve, haven't you implemented the player option yet? I remember you have the first player option this year." Sun Ce said.
He remembers that Nash’s contract is similar to the 4+1+1 contracts of James, Wade and Bosh, and he can jump out of the contract after the first year.
"Yes, you want me to go to Memphis? If you change to Kidd, you have no shortage of point guards!" Nash asked doubtfully.
"No, I don't want to partner with Kidd. He just won the championship. It feels like we are holding his thighs. I want to win the championship with you. Do you dare to play together?" Sun Ce was very provocative.
Nash did not answer, but began to analyze: "The Spurs got Guy, the striker reinforced successfully, just need to find a center to help the weight loss of Duncan to carry the center, Duncan returns to the power forward position. The Spurs team defense will return, they are It is a big hit to win the championship next season;
The Mavericks replaced Kidd with Kidd to avoid the risk of Kidd's possible degradation. With Yao and Terry, Conley's ability to organize offensive is enough, and Nowitzki is in such a good state that they may be the first to win the championship. Popular
And you guys, sent away Guy in vain, and now you don’t want Kidd, why do I think you can win the championship? The Lakers want me, the Heat want me, Kobe and James contacted me, but I refused. "
This is well-founded. After analysis, their Grizzlies are indeed not a good player for Nash, but Sun Ce can be rude: "They can't give you the salary we can give. When trading Guy, we have a 11 million Special case of transaction...
And what does it mean to go to the Lakers and Heat? Just like I don’t want to partner with Kidd, it will be more interesting for you to come to us. How about, do you want to play? "
Sun Ce did not answer the question according to the routine, and Nash asked again, not according to the routine: "Do you think I am more suitable for you than Kidd?"
Sun Ceying said: "No, Kidd is more suitable, but I don't like him,
Steve, think about it, how beautiful we are to reproduce the brilliance of the dance company...
That's right, we don't need you to defend like Kidd. We have Tony, Paul, Sean and me. Our outside defense is good enough. We have a rotation time that is running and banging, and your shot Ability can lead our team, and I can continue to learn technology with you. "
I talked about it. I didn't know how to talk about it on the right track.
Sun Ce simply stated the Grizzlies' role arrangement for Nash. Nash nodded: "This is very convincing."
Watching Sun Ce looked at him like that, Nash and Sun Ce looked at each other for a while, and finally defeated, laughing: "Let the assist king of last season give you a substitute, our team is really luxurious enough."
Hearing Nash's words, Sun Ce knew that it was all right!
Sun Ce also smiled and said: "If you want to start, I can try to get another best sixth man..."
"Will the bench take the regular season MVP? Hahaha, I will play with you this time!"
Nash was joking about letting Sun Ce play off the bench, but he now feels special.
He had the feeling of being young and frantic when he returned to his youth, and it is the young frenzy that he should have in his mind. He was not frantic at that time. When he was young, he almost couldn't hit the ball.
Facing Sun Ce, Nash had the feeling of being young and frivolous when he had imagined it but dared not do it!
...
...
On June 22, 2011, the Grizzlies, who had been ridiculed by their heads and got into the water for a while, broke into trading again!
T.N.T reporter Zach Lowe broke the news that the Grizzlies, Mavericks, Suns and Hornets reached a four-way deal!
The Suns sent Steve Nash and received the Hornets’ 2014 first-round lotto protection draft picks, the Mavericks’ first-round draft picks in 2015, the Mavericks’ second-round draft picks this year, and the Grizzlies’ $11 million trade exception. .
The Hornets sent out the 2014 first-round lottery to protect the draft picks and the 2014 second-round draft picks. They got Jason Kidd of the Mavericks and Darrell Arthur of the Grizzlies.
The Mavericks sent Jason Kidd, the 2015 first-round draft pick, and this year's second-round draft pick. After four years, the $36 million pick was signed and then replaced by Mike Conley.
The Grizzlies sent Mike Conley, Darrell Arthur and the Spurs a $11 million trade exception. They got Steve Nash from the Suns and the Hornets' 2014 second round pick. .
Seeing that the Grizzlies had another deal, fans felt that there was something to ridicule about. The labor negotiations overwhelmed the fans, and it was even more uncomfortable for them to find some fun.
However, this deal... the Grizzlies did not suffer!
It's not just not losing money, Conley changed for Nash... Robbery, this is! Conley is a restricted free agent, so he just replaced Nash?
Compared with Kidd, who has no core strength now, Nash has just finished the season but is the assists king! With Nash's ability to maintain his state, it is estimated that he will continue to be an assist to the Kings next season. The Grizzlies used Conley to replace Nash.
What does the Suns map?
And Conley went not to the Suns, but to the Mavericks. The Mavericks used Kidd to replace Conley... which is also incredible.
If Kidd is sent out for someone else, maybe the Mavericks will be sprayed, but the replacement is Conley, which is a profit for the Mavericks.
In fact, fans feel that Conley and Kidd are swapped. The two teams can be said to be a perfect deal, and the win-win situation cannot be better.
For other teams, Kidd may be too old. For other teams, Conley is not suitable for the core.
But if the two are swapped, then there is no problem at all.
Who knew Kidd was actually sent to the Hornets!
The Grizzlies came out with a Conley back to Nash, and also used Darrell Arthur to return to a second round.
Fans online shouted, the Grizzlies can also be robbed!
But after seeing the inside story of the follow-up exposure, the fans understood.
The Sun team revealed in an interview that Nash took the initiative to apply for a deal with the Suns and wanted to go to the Grizzlies. The Suns did not resist such a thing. Nash stated that if he did not trade, he might choose to jump out of the contract. The Suns will not refuse.
Originally the Suns had plans to rebuild, but Nash is here, and their record will not be worse.
But they will not take the initiative to abandon Nash, just time, they can afford two or three years.
When Nash had his favorite home, the Suns did not refuse.
Nash didn't go directly to the Grizzlies. He still wanted to help the Suns leave something and chose to trade after executing the player option.
Nash is going to the Grizzlies, this fan can understand, but how did the Mavericks and Hornets come out?
The two teams also benefited. The Mavericks' biggest concern next season is that Kidd may be aging. Now with Conley, don't worry about these problems.
The Hornets got the No. 1 pick, and the media broke the news. The No. 1 pick was intentionally given by the league, because the Hornets are finally going to sell, no matter how the lottery comes, they will definitely choose Irving, with Kidd belt It's appropriate to play, but a lottery protector is not so easy to get Kidd in the first round, even if it is this age.
So, this is a rare all-win transaction.
But it still left the fans puzzled and gave Conley to the Suns. The Suns couldn’t say no. They couldn’t be the core. It’s no problem to be a qualified main point guard. Why should they help the Mavericks and Hornets?
The media and fans pursued it in depth for a few days. The Hornets and Suns didn't know why they eventually developed like this. They were put forward by the Grizzlies.
The Grizzlies refused to answer such questions, and the Mavericks also kept their mouths closed...
At this time, some media pointed out that if there is no special case of 11 million transactions obtained by Gay, there is no way to get Nash now. In terms of strength, the Grizzlies are not as strong as the Grizzlies have just scored in the Western Conference. Rising and falling, and Nash stated that he is willing to accept the role change... The Grizzlies don't have to insist on the starting lineup of dual point guards~EbookFREE.me~ The rotation may be better.
But this is also refuted. The Grizzlies obviously can trade Nash directly with Guy. If Nash actively applies for a transaction, then the Suns cannot refuse Gay, a first-rate small forward who is less than 25 years old. It will not benefit the Mavericks and Spurs.
The mysterious hype about the Grizzlies, starting from the trade Guy was robbed, to the Conley robbery to Nash and a future second round signing, both transactions have too multimedia and fans can not understand things, the media kept on If you want to learn more, fans want to explore the inside.
Until the draft was about to start, there was still no insider to explore... Just like the trading of Gasol, there were rumors that Jerry West assisted the old club, but in fact Jerry West was in 2007. The departure from the Grizzlies in July and the removal of Gasol to the Lakers was in December 2007. At that time, the general manager of the Grizzlies had changed from Jerry West to Chris Wallace. Although Jerry West and Chris Wallace have the so-called mentorship, but this kind of transaction must be agreed by the boss. If so, the transaction is casual... McHale sent Garnett to The Celtics were forced to resign shortly.
This transaction, like that, no one came out this time to explain why it was traded, and it became another uncontroversial thing.
