NBA: There is nothing wrong with bringing a ball in a fight!

Chapter 173 Shocking deal!The Bulls got Barkley!The Lakers panicked!

O'Neal's remarks also caused him to encounter a lot of criticism, especially the Bulls fans, who abused O'Neal crazily.

In their view, O'Neal is not qualified to judge Michael Jordan at all, because he is just a rookie player.

However, O'Neill didn't pay attention to the criticisms of these people at all, and even responded directly:

"If I entered the American national team, then I would definitely blow this leaf up!"

"But what about Michael? He got zero seals in the final. This is a shame, a shame to our American national team!"

"But don't worry, although Michael was blocked by Ye Ling, I can assure you that I will let the fans of the whole league know who is the real ruler of the league next season!"

When Ye Qingchen learned of O'Neill's remarks, he couldn't help but like O'Neill.

Because of O'Neal's remarks, he successfully attracted everyone's attention and made him the focus of many fans.

His remarks not only included Danzi, the strongest player in the United States, but also the new FMVP Ye Qingchen.

It can be said that O'Neill's remarks directly offended the two masters.

For the fans, next season will be full of highlights again.

The American team defeated the Longguo team led by Ye Qingchen in the Olympic final, which also made many NBA team coaches see a possibility, that is, as long as there are enough stars, they can defeat the team with Ye Qingchen.

For example, the American team, they have the strongest American basketball player, although Ye Qingchen successfully locked up Michael, but in the end they still couldn't change the fate of losing.

Therefore, if they want to defeat the Lakers with Ye Qingchen, there is only one direction - to strengthen the team and accumulate all-star players!

Therefore, after the Olympics, many teams have already started to make moves.

Although the Lakers defeated the Bulls and won the championship last season, everyone can see that the Lakers' lineup has great flaws.

The Lakers are already very dependent on Ye Qingchen, and during the offseason, the Lakers don't have much room to maneuver, so the Lakers lineup will definitely not change much.

This gave other teams confidence that as long as they are willing to spend money, they can strengthen the team.

Among them, the general manager of the Trail Blazers has begun to look for All-Star players in the free market.

And Charles Barkley is one of the players they want most. After all, at this time, Barkley and the 76ers have long been in harmony.

Moreover, the strength of the Trail Blazers is also quite strong. If Barkley can be obtained, it will immediately become one of the most popular teams to win the championship.

Therefore, the general manager of the Trail Blazers even visited Barkley in person and wanted to lobby him to join the Trail Blazers.

As everyone knows, after meeting with the general manager of the Trail Blazers, Barkley did not express his position immediately, but instead raised a question:
"The Chicago Bulls had Scottie Pippen and Michael Jordan, but they lost to the Lakers in the Finals. So, do you think it's safe to have two All-Stars?"

The general manager of the Trail Blazers was dumbfounded by Barkley's soul torture, and he retorted subconsciously:
"So you mean that at least three All-Star players are needed to ensure victory over the Lakers?"

"Ah, you have found the answer to a question that has been troubling me for months! I know what to do!"

"What the hell are you talking about? Do you know how to do it?"

"If it is said that I brought my talents to Chicago, wouldn't the problem of winning the championship be solved perfectly?"

"What are you daydreaming about? What leverage does the Bulls have to get you?"

"Then have to try it!"

Barkley rejected the gracious invitation from the general manager of the Trail Blazers. Instead, he turned around and asked his agent to communicate with the general manager of the Bulls.

Even the general manager of the Bulls didn't expect that Barkley would approach him so actively, but he still welcomes Barkley's sincerity.

However, there is a problem that must be resolved, that is, Barkley just asked the 76ers management to trade himself, so he is not considered a free agent.

The result of this is that if the Bulls want to get Barkley, they must exchange the corresponding chips with the 76ers.

So, now it's the turn of the Bulls general manager to start struggling.

Getting Barkley is undoubtedly the biggest reinforcement for the Bulls. Their backcourt is already strong enough. Once Barkley arrives, the Bulls will be greatly reinforced inside.

Although the Bulls' inside line is not too weak, the inside line composed of Grant and Cartwright moves slowly, which will slow down the Bulls' offensive speed to a certain extent.

But if Barkley arrives, the Bulls' offense will be able to speed up in an all-round way.

Now, the general manager of the Bulls is really ready to move. If Barkley can be obtained, he feels that it is worth sacrificing Cartwright and Grant.

Therefore, the general manager first found Zen Master Jackson and told Zen Master Jackson that he wanted to get Barkley through a trade.

When the Zen Master Jackson heard the news, he, who had always been calm, showed an ecstatic expression:
"Is what you said true?"

"Are you sure he's interested in coming to our Bulls?"

"Yes, he asked the agent to take the initiative to contact us. He said that he was tired of losing. He and the management of the 76ers have had a long-standing grievance, and it is impossible to reconcile!"

"Of course, the management of the 76ers has long wanted to trade him out, because he doesn't work hard in the team!"

After getting an affirmative answer from the general manager, Zen Master Jackson was indescribably excited:
"Except for Scotty and Michael, the rest of the players can be used as bargaining chips, and Charles must be obtained at any cost!"

The general manager of the Bulls saw that Zen master Jackson was so excited, he decided to make a good operation of this transaction.

When the general manager of the Bulls began to operate secretly, the Rockets also broke out a news that shocked the league.

That is, "Big Dream" Olajuwon also submitted a request to the Rockets' management for a trade.

Once this news was reported, the general managers of the entire league went crazy!

You know, Olajuwon is a big killer inside. His footsteps under the basket allow him to easily score against anyone's defense.

Even Ye Qingchen was shocked after hearing the news.

To be honest, although Ye Qingchen led the Lakers to the championship last season, there was indeed an element of luck.

If Danzi and Pippen hadn't been absent due to injuries, it was indeed impossible for Ye Qingchen to lead the team alone to defeat the Bulls.

However, due to Ye Qingchen's use of divisive tactics and methods against Danzi, conflicts appeared within the Bulls, and Ye Qingchen finally had the opportunity to take advantage of the vacancy and win the championship.

But in fact, the Lakers' lineup is still quite weak.

Especially after the Olympics, all the fans and coaches could see that if they wanted to beat Ye Qingchen's team, they had to pile up stars.

As long as there are enough stars, Ye Qingchen has no time to take care of them. He has only one person, no matter how strong he is, there is only one person.

Therefore, now that Barkley and Olajuwon are testing the free market at the same time, the teams in the entire league have fallen into madness.

The Lakers are no exception!
Without Ye Qingchen reminding, Jerry West has already started to act.

Jerry West has two plans, one is to trade with the 76ers to get Charles Barkley;

The other is to trade with the Rockets to get Olajuwon.

However, Jerry West is already mentally prepared. If he wants to get one of these two, the price he has to pay must be quite huge.

However, as long as one of these two can be obtained, it will be a surefire profit for the Lakers.

Now Ye Qingchen's technical feature is that he can play from position one to position five, and in every position, he is actually misplaced.

If Ye Qingchen had another all-star helper, then the Lakers would truly be invincible.

However, what Jerry West can think of, the general managers of other teams can also think of.

Therefore, except for the Lakers, the rest of the teams seem to have reached a tacit agreement, that is, anyone can get these two, but the Lakers are determined not to!
Especially the general manager of the Bulls. He even took the initiative to contact other general managers to form an alliance with them and jointly interfere with the Lakers' related transactions.

The general managers of many teams have agreed to this request of the Bulls general manager, all because they don't want to see the Lakers dominate.

At the same time, the negotiations between the Bulls and the 76ers have also reached a feverish stage.

Although the 76ers are determined to trade Barkley, they also have to squeeze his remaining value when trading him.

Therefore, the 76ers' chips were extremely large, and they even asked to take Pippen as a chip.

After the Bulls heard their request, they immediately refused.

Pippen and Danzi are not for sale of the Bulls, and they must not be moved.

The idea of ​​the Bulls general manager is to get Barkley, form the Big Three for the Bulls, and make the Bulls a super team!
In fact, the 76ers also knew that it was impossible for the Bulls to trade Pippen. This was just their negotiating skills.

Soon, they settled for the next best thing, offering Cartwright and Grant and John Paxson, plus a Bulls 1994 first-round pick.

The general manager of the Bulls was silent. The bargaining chip proposed by the 76ers can be said to be reasonable or unexpected.

His idea is that Grant and Cartwright can be traded, but it is a bit uncomfortable to take this first-round pick.

You know, the 1994 first-round pick was also obtained by the Bulls in a previous transaction, which is one of the Bulls' assets.

This first-round pick is relatively high and may have great potential in the future. After being traded in this way, it will have a great impact on the future development of the Bulls.

However, when the Bulls tried to keep this first-round pick, the 76ers firmly disagreed.

Moreover, they threatened that if they did not agree within one day, they would cancel this negotiation and find another one!

This is sure that the Bulls really want to get Barkley!
Although the general manager of the Bulls felt very aggrieved, he could only choose to accept this bargaining chip.

So, the Bulls and 76ers reached this deal.

The Bulls sent Horace Grant, Bill Cartwright, John Paxson and a 1994 first-round pick to the 76ers, and got their dream Charles Barkley from the 76ers!
When the deal was announced, the entire league was shocked!

Especially Jerry West, when he learned of the deal, he was furious instantly:

"Damn!"

"Damn 76ers!"

"Damn Bulls!"

"Damn them!"

No wonder Jerry West is so furious, mainly because the current lineup of the Bulls can even be regarded as half of the "Dream Team".

Just imagine, the Bulls' starting players are Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen, and a Charles Barkley.

As for the other two starting positions, random players are harmless.

Their lineup, looking at the entire league, is like an explosion. This is the Big Three in the true sense!
The strength of the Bulls is already strong enough, and now they have Charles Barkley, how can they fight?
Do you want to fight them with your head?

After many fans learned of this deal, they also clamored "NBA finale"!
The Bulls got Barkley, and Danzi was undoubtedly the happiest one.

Now, Danzi is full of confidence in the new season again, and he can't wait to flex his muscles.

Danzi was even imagining how ugly Ye Qingchen's face would be after hearing the news.

Therefore, Danzi is also rare. In an interview with the media, he said:

"After getting Charles, our goal has changed. Our goal is not to win only one championship, nor two, nor three. Nor five or six! We want to win ten championships!"

Although Danzi's words were very rampant, no one dared to stand up and refute.

Because the Bulls' lineup is really too strong now!

There is really nothing wrong with Dan Zi saying such words.

For Jerry West, there is only one way left for him now, and that is to get Olajuwon at any cost.

Similarly, other teams in the league became crazy after seeing the Bulls get Barkley, and they began to chase Olajuwon crazily.

In the following time, the general manager of the Rockets became quite busy. He had to meet and negotiate with the general managers of different teams every day to discuss the bargaining chip of Olajuwon.

When Jerry West met with the general manager of the Rockets, the general manager of the Rockets said straight to the point:

"I know that you want to get Hajim the most, but you must pay enough chips!"

Jerry West's expression became very ugly. He knew that the Rockets wanted the Lions to open their mouths, but he didn't want to empty out the entire family of the Lakers.

However, in negotiations, it is still necessary to test each other to know the depth of the other party.

"We can trade All-Star forward James Worthy to your side, and of course two first-round picks next year or two!"

Jerry West threw out his chip, but when the general manager of the Rockets heard his chip, there was a disdainful smile on his face:
"You want to get Hajim with such chips? Are you underestimating his value too much?"

"I want all your draft picks for the next five years, and all of your starters, except Ye, to be traded to me!"

After hearing the words of the general manager of the Rockets, Jerry West's face changed drastically:
"What the hell do you want to empty out my Lakers family all at once?"
