My teammate in the NBA is Nash

Chapter 55 Auerbach VS Jerry West (Tickets Asked)

With the announcement of the results of the draft lottery.

The major media in the United States have also launched a new round of discussions around the final possible draft results.

In the eyes of the vast majority of the media, Auerbach was misunderstood by David Stern.

"The NBA is definitely targeting the Boston team on purpose!"

"The Celtics played the worst record in team history, but the final result was only the No. [-] pick!?"

"The league will not allow Arnold Auerbach to get the No. [-] pick. They don't want to see another Celtic dynasty!"

In the eyes of these basketball experts, the league is obviously afraid of Auerbach's influence.

Once the cardinal is given such a good thing as the No. [-] pick, he can definitely perform a magic trick for the world to see.

Some experts even said:
Don't look at the Celtics who just created the worst record in team history this season.

If they are given the No. [-] lottery, Lukai will be able to turn around in an instant next season and surprise the whole world!
"But what the league does is fine. The second-to-last Vancouver Grizzlies are only the fourth pick."

Of course.

There are also media statements that are just right for the league's bad money:
"Sometimes. Destiny is so magical."

"You never know who's going to win in the end."

As soon as these experts speak out, they will know that they are old cleaning dogs.

While media experts were discussing the results of the draft lottery.

The teams holding the lottery picks have started the intensive rookie trial training session.

In '[-], the NBA rookie combine didn't exist.

Individual workouts for each lottery team is the key to every rookie player's NBA career.

The Boston Celtics are still the most active team among the teams sending out workout invitations for popular rookies.

During the trial training, Lukai invited:

Popular defenders like Allen Iverson, Stephon Marbury, Ray Allen and more.

In an interview with the media, Celtics coach Michael Leon Kyle, who appeared in front of the camera, said more than once:

We really only want to pick a defender!
In order to put this play in place.

The Celtics also sent out a workout invitation to high school guard Kobe Bryant from Pennsylvania.

But there is one thing to say.

Although Kobe is a tool man who was called to act, the results of his trial training at North Shore Garden quite made the Celtics shine.

But Lu Kai still focused more on Su Han.

Just as the team continues to try out guard rookies.

Auerbach also kept calling Toronto Raptors management, asking about potential trade plans.

the other side.

The Toronto Raptors, holding the No. [-] pick, only invited two players to come to the trial during the trial training session.

One, Marcus Camby of Massachusetts.

The other one is the most popular player in the current version - Su Han!
In fact, the Raptors have no interest in Camby at all. They just told everyone through the rookie invitation——

What we need is a good inside player!
After completing the trial training for Su Han, the Raptors coach Darnell Walker also gave Su Han a very high evaluation through the media.

They are sending a message to other teams in the league who want to get Su Han:
If you can't come up with enough chips to impress the Raptors, we can keep Su Han for ourselves!

"Dear Cardinal, I respect you very much."

The office of the general manager of the Toronto Raptors.

The general manager of the team, Glenn Grunwald, took the lead after answering the call from Boston:

"But you know, the No. [-] pick in our hands is not easy to come by."

It's really hard to come by.

You know, during the regular season, the Raptors were played by Lu Kai in four games, and finally changed from the bottom three to the bottom four!

Without Lu Kai's shameless acting skills, would the Raptors be in such a mess?

Obviously.

Glenn Grunwald That's being yin and yang.

"You know, after we won the No. [-] pick, no less than [-] teams have asked us about their trading intentions."

Hearing Auerbach's trade plan, Glenn Grunwald smiled: "Just an All-Star + No. [-] pick is not enough."

That's right, the first trade offer made by the Boston Celtics was to use the All-Star player + the No. [-] pick in [-] to trade for the No. [-] pick!

As for salary balance, Auerbach said that he can swallow any garbage contract in the Raptors.

in other words.

The Celtics just use the All-Star + maybe a rookie at the Iverson level, and replace Su Han alone!
If the Raptors need inside players, the No. [-] pick can be used to choose Marcus Camby!
This is an All-Star player + Camby in exchange for Su Han.

Then goose.

The Toronto Raptors are completely dismissive of this offer.

Like Glenn Grunwald said.

After the Raptors won the No. [-] pick, there have been no less than double-digit teams asking them about the possibility of getting the No. [-] pick in a trade.

Like the Los Angeles Lakers!
Lakers general manager Jerry West directly offered All-Star center Divac + All-Star guard Eddie Jones in a package deal for Su Han!

Compare.

Lukai's All-Star player has to be acquired through another deal.

And whether the rookie selected with the No. [-] pick can reach the All-Star level is still unknown.

The Lakers exchanged two All-Stars for Su Han, which was much more sincere than the Celtics' offer.

more importantly.

Even if the sincerity of the Lakers is full, the chips are enough.

The Toronto Raptors were very moved, and then chose to refuse.

joke!

This is only a few days after the draft results were announced, and the management of each team has already started to propose proposals.

Even Hu Kai, LOGO + cardinals and other big shots called the Raptors uniform team in person.

The Hukai war directly spread to the competition for the No. [-] lottery.

What did you explain?
The introduction explained——

As time goes on, the No. [-] pick in the hands of the Raptors will become more valuable!

The referral is an excellent opportunity for the Raptors to turn around and sing in an instant after a wave of transactions!

This kind of thing that turns around and takes off, doesn't the lion open his mouth?
That Glenn Grunwald felt that his brain might not work well.

"How is it, Bishop?"

Boston, North Shore Gardens.

Coach Michael Leon Kyle asked anxiously after seeing Auerbach hang up the phone: "What did Toronto say?"

"They want more."

Auerbach was very calm:
"Just an All-Star player + a high draft pick is not enough to feed their appetite."

In fact, the Cardinal also expected that the Raptors would take this opportunity to slaughter the rest of the league.

Therefore, this is only Auerbach's first tentative offer.

If the Raptors management is not good at thinking, maybe they will agree.

Since the other party disagrees, that's fine.

Auerbach has other trade options.

"General Manager, Toronto still rejects our trading plan."

California, Los Angeles.

Great Western Forum.

The assistant in front of Jerry West-Mitch Kupchak was a little disappointed: "Their demands are too outrageous, the Toronto Raptors are robbing!"

"That's normal, Mitch."

The LOGO is no surprise: "If the No. [-] lottery belongs to me, I will do more than they do."

Jerry West is not kidding.

You can try to give him the No. [-] lottery in [-] and see if he can conjure flowers!

"Then what should we do now?"

"Don't worry, Mitch, we need to be patient."

Jerry West unhurriedly opened an email:
"There are plenty of opportunities, and all we need to do is wait for the opportunities to arise."

Looking at the contents of the email, the corner of LOGO's mouth raised.

If you have obtained the source of the news, there is no problem. ． ．
In this battle for Su Han, the Lakers are already in the absolute lead!
