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

Chapter 174 "Dream Dust Combination"!The Lakers get the "big dream", the NBA finale?

No wonder Jerry West was so furious, it was really the general manager of the Rockets who bullied people too much.

Although the Lakers really want to get Olajuwon, his arrival will definitely make the Lakers even stronger.

But we must also consider the actual situation. The Rockets actually want to get all the other Lakers players?
This is simply to push the Lakers into the pit of fire!
Especially taking all the draft picks for the next five years, this is simply to empty out the future potential of the Lakers, which is absolutely not allowed.

Although Olajuwon's value is great, it is not worth the price the Lakers paid.

There were huge differences between the two parties in this transaction and it was stranded.

The owner of the Lakers, Jerry Buss, also looked angry after learning about the bargaining chips the Rockets wanted:
"Damn, are they thinking about shit? They're all traded, we can't even get five starters!"

Jerry West was silent, and he even thought of giving up this trade negotiation.

But Jerry Buss didn't seem to give up, he still wanted to have further negotiations with the Rockets, after all, it was Olajuwon.

If you can really get Olajuwon at some price, Jerebas is really willing.

Seeing the expression of Jerry Buss, Jerry West knew what the boss was thinking:

"Hey, boss, why don't I go to talk to Ye and see what he thinks?"

Generally speaking, the team's management is not qualified to intervene or even know about player transactions.

Because there is such a saying in the NBA:

"business is business!"

The meaning is obvious, all players are nothing more than commodities in the eyes of the team owners, and they don't need to seek the opinions of the players at all.

However, now Jerry West told Jerry Buss that he wanted to ask Ye Qingchen's opinion, which fully demonstrated the importance of Ye Qingchen in their minds.

After all, if it wasn't for Ye Qingchen, they couldn't even make the playoffs last season, let alone the championship.

Therefore, for Jerry West's proposal, Jerry Bass of course agreed, and he actually wanted to hear Ye Qingchen's opinion.

When Jerry West called Ye Qingchen, Ye Qingchen was on vacation at an island.

After Ye Qingchen learned that the Lakers were interested in getting Olajuwon, he just said one sentence:

"Except for Keith Owens, you can move the rest of the players, but try not to make too many adjustments to our starting lineup!"

"Of course, in my opinion, if the price you pay is really too high, it's not a big problem if you don't get Hajim!"

"Everything depends on me!"

After speaking, Ye Qingchen hung up Jerry West's call.

After listening to Ye Qingchen's opinion, Jerry West fell into deep thought.

He quickly understood the meaning of Ye Qingchen's words, obviously Ye Qingchen hoped that he would not be too passive, and his attitude must become tougher.

The phone call with Ye Qingchen filled Jerry West with confidence. He felt that not getting Olajuwon was not a big deal.

As a result, the negotiations between the Lakers and the Rockets on the Olajuwon trade continued again!
This time, the Lakers' attitude is very firm, that is, the Lakers can give away their future draft picks, and even give up a few starters.

However, starting players like Keith Owens, Ye Qingchen and Divac must not be traded!

The Rockets thought that the Lakers would make concessions in this negotiation, but they didn't expect their attitude to become so firm.

And the Lakers also made a statement, if the Rockets want to increase their bargaining chips, then this deal will be canceled directly!
The Lakers turned against the guest!

This is something the general manager of the Rockets did not expect!

The Rockets actually want to trade Olajuwon. After all, there is already a deep conflict between Olajuwon and the management.

However, they also want to get rich bargaining chips in the process of seeking a deal, so they are eyeing the fat sheep of the Lakers.

But what I didn't expect was that the general manager of the Lakers, Jerry West, is not a fool, he also has his own bottom line.

Now, the Rockets are in a bit of an embarrassing situation.

The attitude of the Lakers does not seem to be in a hurry. Jerry West even said bluntly:

"Even if we don't get Hajim, with our current lineup, it is more than enough to reach the finals!"

Jerry West's words made the general manager of the Rockets fall into a tangle. He also wanted to find another next home, but the chips they gave were actually not as rich as the Lakers.

You know, among the chips of the Lakers, James Worthy is an All-Star player. He can be regarded as a USB player, the kind of plug and play.

Although the Rockets lost Olajuwon, getting James Worthy would actually be of great benefit to the Rockets' lineup.

Now, it's the Rockets' turn to be stalemate, and finally they put forward the following trading conditions:
James Worthy, Eldon Campbell, Byron Scott, Saidal Sritter, and the Lakers' draft picks for the next three years.

The bargaining chip proposed by the Rockets can actually be regarded as taking advantage of the fire.

These four people are traded, and they can directly form the Rockets' starting lineup.

Moreover, after the training of these four players by Ye Qingchen last season, their understanding of small ball tactics can be described as quite profound.

The Rockets actually took a fancy to this, so they wanted to trade these players, and they also wanted to plug and play.

For this bargaining chip, Jerry West knows that the Rockets will never back down.

Although this bargaining chip is within the acceptance range of the Lakers, it will indeed cause the Lakers to lose several very good players. Jerry West still feels heartache.

So, the Lakers and the Rockets reached a deal!
So, shortly after the Bulls got Charles Barkley, another blockbuster trade news shocked the entire league, and even the entire basketball world!

The Rockets sent Hakeem Olajuwon to the Lakers, got All-Star forward James Worthy from the Lakers, and up-and-coming Eldon Campbell, as well as Byron Scott and Saidal Sreiter, and The Lakers have draft picks for the next three years!
After learning the news, the entire American fans were shocked.

Of course, the most angry one was the general manager of the Bulls. He thought this offseason trade was a stroke of genius.

But what I never expected was that the Lakers once again made a late move and even got Olajuwon through a trade.

This is one of the four major centers in the league. His footsteps at the basket can even be said to make the entire league frightened.

The Lakers actually only paid a small price to get Olajuwon?

How does this make the Bulls general manager not angry?
Now, the Lakers lineup has also become quite strong.

Ye Qingchen, Hakeem Olajuwon, and a three-point shooter Keith Owens, plus a Divac, this lineup is really quite explosive.

Although the Bulls have the Big Three Danzi, Pippen and Barkley, their bench depth obviously has certain disadvantages.

However, for Bulls fans, even if the Lakers get Olajuwon, they don't think the Lakers have the strength to compete with the Bulls.

Even, many Bulls fans believe that the Lakers suffered a big loss in this transaction.

"They actually traded all-star forward James Worthy, and Eldon was also traded. It's a big sale at a loss!"

"The original lineup of the Lakers is actually very balanced. As long as all of them stay healthy, their strength will definitely be at the forefront of the league!"

"But now they are all traded out, this is really ridiculous!"

"So, our Bulls are still the ultimate championship!"

Different from the blind self-confidence of the Bulls fans, Dan Zi's mood also became dignified.

When he first learned that Barkley joined his team, Danzi was actually very excited.

In the Olympics that ended not long ago, Danzi and Barkley were teammates. He knew how strong Barkley's offensive ability was.

Although Barkley is only 1.9 meters tall, his dominance at the basket is extremely terrifying.

Especially his pair of buttocks full of explosiveness, those who are arched by him will feel lingering fear.

Therefore, Danzi is very satisfied with Barkley's arrival, and he is also full of confidence in the next season.

But now, the Lakers actually got Olajuwon, the man who overwhelmed Danzi in the draft, and became teammates with Ye Qingchen!

This made Danzi feel very aggrieved and angry.

However, although Danzi felt the pressure, he still felt that the strength of the Bulls still surpassed that of the Lakers.

However, Danzi did not relax because of this, but strengthened his training again.

Throughout the offseason, Danzi never rested.

He was brooding about being suppressed by Ye Qingchen in the Olympic finals, and he must find his place in the game against the Lakers next season.

At the same time, O'Neal also expressed his views on the two recent major transactions in the league:
"Obviously, the reason why the Bulls and Lakers made such a crazy trade is because they were worried that they would not be able to restrain me, so they chose to keep warm!"

"I didn't expect that I have caused the fear of so many teams in the league without even playing a game in the NBA!"

"Sure enough, one person's influence cannot be concealed!"

"But, though they do, it seems to me that it is of no use for them to do so!"

"I'll let them know what real inside dominance is!"

O'Neill knows how to attract attention, and his remarks really attracted the attention of many fans.

However, although O'Neill's remarks are very exaggerated, many fans agree with O'Neill's statement.

Because O'Neal's physical condition is indeed like a burst, with a height of 16 meters and a weight of 140 kg, coupled with his excellent physical coordination, he is simply invincible inside.

This is why these fans don't think O'Neal's words are too much, because he does have the qualifications to be arrogant.

All of a sudden, for the new season, American fans have become extremely looking forward to it.

There are the Lakers and Bulls after the lineup has been strengthened, and there is also Shaquille O'Neal who has just landed in the NBA.

Therefore, the NBA next season will become very lively.

For Ye Qingchen personally, the offseason is short.

He always felt that the finals had just ended yesterday, and the journey of the new season would start tomorrow.

The happy time always flies by very fast, and it's time for the hard time to clock in and go to work again!
"Made, I seem to have almost enough money to buy an NBA team. See if this old guy, Bass, is interested in letting me invest in the Lakers?"

It was already the end of September 1992, and NBA teams started their pre-game training camps one after another.

The Lakers are no exception, and Ye Qingchen has already arrived in Los Angeles at this moment.

When Ye Qingchen appeared at the Los Angeles Airport, he was immediately surrounded by many media reporters.

"Hey Ye, what are your expectations for the new season?"

"What you're asking is nonsense. Of course my goal is to win the championship, and of course make more money!"

Ye Qingchen's answer made the reporters burst into laughter, and Ye Qingchen pushed through the crowd, walked out of the airport, and drove back to his home.

Ye Qingchen's mansion in Los Angeles has not been lived in for more than two months, so now he doesn't want to go back to live in his own home, he needs to have it cleaned first.

Therefore, Ye Qingchen chose to stay overnight at Jennifer Connelly's house, after all, it had been a long time since he had a basketball skill exchange with her.

When Jennifer Connelly saw Ye Qingchen, her face was full of resentment:

"You always remember me?"

"Of course, I'm here now to check if your skills have improved!"

After finishing speaking, Ye Qingchen directly started a one-on-one match with Connery
A day later, Ye Qingchen appeared on the Lakers training ground.

Ye Qingchen was the last player reported by the team, and his arrival successfully attracted the attention of all teammates.

The first thing Ye Qingchen noticed was of course Olajuwon, because at this moment he was already sweating profusely and drenched, obviously having undergone intense training.

After seeing Ye Qingchen, Olajuwon not only showed no excited expression on his face, but showed displeasure instead.

Ye Qingchen noticed Olajuwon's slight expression, he laughed and walked towards Olajuwon:
"Hey, Hajim, welcome to our Lakers family, how are you, are you used to everything?"

After finishing speaking, Ye Qingchen reached out to greet Olajuwon with a high five.

However, Olajuwon indifferently rejected Ye Qingchen's kindness:

"Whether I'm used to it or not has nothing to do with you. What I want to know is, as the head star of the team, why are you the last one to appear in the arena?"

After hearing Olajuwon's question, the smile on Ye Qingchen's face did not decrease, but instead he said jokingly:

"Wow wow wow, Hajim is really strict!"

Seeing that Ye Qingchen still had a hippie smile on his face, Olajuwon's expression became even uglier:

"I'm not joking with you, it's training time now, I hope you can show the attitude you should have!"

"So, what should I do to satisfy you?"

Ye Qingchen looked at Olajuwon with interest and asked.

Seeing that Ye Qingchen and Olajuwon pinched each other as soon as they met, Old Deng's expression was also a little depressed.

He didn't expect such a result, he thought that Olajuwon would definitely like Ye Qingchen very much.

Moreover, Olajuwon was traded no matter what, he should actually show kindness to Ye Qingchen.

But why did he seem very dissatisfied with Ye Qingchen's performance?
At this moment, Olajuwon's words stunned everyone present!

"I want to fight you one-on-one! Only by defeating me can you be qualified to become the boss of the Lakers!"
