NBA: One S-level skill per game

Chapter 170 Trading Storm
Li Chen finished breakfast accompanied by Avril Lavigne.

After breakfast, when Avril was about to leave the room, Li Chen hesitated and said: "Avril!"

"Ah?" Avril turned around with a suspicious face and asked in surprise: "What's wrong, my dear?"

"I...I'm going back to China this year to see my parents, you...are you going?"

Li Chen had no choice but to ask this question stammeringly. Li Chen was a little helpless.

He never expected that his cheap mother would watch him play in every game, which would lead to his dating a foreign star's girlfriend being found out by his mother, who even clamored to see his daughter-in-law a few days ago. .

That's why today's scene happened.

Avril was stunned for a moment, then said excitedly: "Really? Can I really meet your parents? It's really great."

Li Chen was a little confused when he saw Avril Lavigne's excited look. What's going on?This is different from what I imagined!Just now he was worried that Avril was unwilling to go to China.

In this way, after some discussion, the two returned to China after the draft.

After the matter of taking his girlfriend to meet his parents was finalized, Li Chen started practicing shooting.

As soon as he entered his arena, Li Chen suddenly remembered something. After his championship parade was over, the system beeped.

It was so noisy that I didn’t even hear what the system was saying?
At this time, he opened the system prompt record.

[Tip: After the host wins the NBA championship, the system will open a reward for you to upgrade your A-level skills to S-level skills. 】

Seeing this scene, Li Chen was overjoyed, he never thought that winning the championship would be such a good thing.After the excitement, the next step is to choose.

Li Chen had a wide range of skills that he could choose to improve, so much so that he once had trouble choosing. After struggling for 10 minutes, he finally chose the auxiliary skill [Assist Master].

Because, next he wants to raise fake All-Star players.

What this means is, use [Assist Master] to develop an ordinary rotation player into an All-Star. Of course, this All-Star player will be an All-Star player next to him. As for leaving him, haha!It is conceivable that the hit rate is less than 20%.

Li Chen did this mainly to fool Morey, a piece of shit. One All-Star player can't be replaced by Yao Ming, so just two. If two doesn't work, then three. If three doesn't work, then four. He doesn't believe Morey, old dog. Tempted?
Comparing heart to heart, as long as it is a normal person, it will agree to this deal, not to mention that Old Dog Morey is a villain who kills donkeys.

By the way, this method can also be used to get Duncan away from the Spurs. He believes that Pete Holt will be tempted. Without Duncan, how will Popovich, an old dog, play?
Also, Leonard doesn't want to go to the Spurs, he must be cut off.

However, this matter still needs to be persuaded by Elgin Baylor, so this matter needs to be considered in the long term.

While thinking about it, Li Chen started to practice, but this morning Li Chen failed to practice steadily.

Because, he kept calling all morning, first Yao Ming, Bill Duffy, and then his teammates from the national team.

Li Chen was speechless. Brother, it’s midnight in China!

At this time, a short message came quietly.

Congratulations, you won the championship, but you are still a little behind me. I have already won three championships.

When Li Chen saw Kobe's message, he laughed. Kobe was afraid that he would show off in front of him, so he chose to send the message. He was also convinced. The little blacksmith really took great pains to guard against him!

But, didn't you know that I can also send messages myself?
Thinking of this, Li Chen moved his fingers quickly on the keyboard, and strings of English words appeared on the screen one after another.

After editing the message, Li Chen chuckled and was about to send the message to Kobe.

But after thinking about it, Li Chen deleted a large section of the message he had just edited, then entered the words "thank you" on the message editing page, and then sent it to Kobe very proudly.

Now a picture appeared in his mind. After receiving the information, Kobe was hesitant and confused.

He will definitely hesitate to read his own messages, and then hesitate for a while before finally gathering the courage to check the messages he sent, and then...hehehe!

To say that Li Chen has really studied Kobe thoroughly.

Kobe's house.

Just as Li Chen guessed, Kobe looked at the phone tangledly. He really wanted to see what Li Chen said.

But he was afraid that he would regret it after reading Li Chen's message. After struggling for half an hour, he finally mustered up the courage to click on the message.

When he saw the words "thank you" in Li Chen's message, he was stunned for a moment. He subconsciously rubbed his eyes. He really couldn't believe that Li Chen only said the words "thank you".

After rubbing his eyes, he looked again and said thank you. The little blacksmith was confused this time. This is wrong!After this kid won the championship, how could he not show off in front of him?
But after a while, Kobe's face turned green with anger.

"Fuck, bastard, bastard boy."

Kobe had the urge to throw his cell phone, so he hesitated and struggled for a long time. He was asking for trouble and made himself struggling and uneasy for a long time!

Li Chen, I want to fight you one on one and make you doubt your life.Kobe secretly felt cruel, so he picked up the phone and wanted to make an appointment with Li Chen.

But at this moment, Kobe received a call. After receiving the call, Kobe was stunned for a moment, and then said expectantly: "Mr. Cook, I hope to play with him."

At this moment, all NBA teams were shocked, and every team was gearing up.

Time flashes back to an hour ago, in the Clippers general manager's office.

"Mr. Sterling, no, absolutely not." Elgin Baylor strongly denied.

Donald Sterling said with rare kindness: "Elgin, you have to know that Alvin caused me to lose nearly 1000 million U.S. dollars. I can't keep him with the Clippers. You also said that Li Chen has nothing to do with Alvin." Wen has unusual feelings, so what will happen if he knows this? You should understand what I do."

Elgin Baylor still shook his head and said: "Sterling, Chen, but FMVP! He is the most valuable player and the core of the Clippers. If we trade him, it may become a weak team. When the time comes, your The loss will be greater, you..."

But before Elgin Baylor could finish speaking, Donald Sterling waved his hand and interrupted: "Elgin, I have thought about this situation for a long time, so this time I am just testing the waters to see what each team can do." What kind of chips are given."

Elgin Baylor still disagrees with Donald Sterling for Li Chen, who has proven his worth this year.

But the Clippers belong to Donald Sterling, he is the owner of this team, and he, Elgin Baylor, is just a general manager.

Finally, Donald Sterling lost patience and directly ordered Elgin Baylor to release the news that Li Chen was to be traded, and then slammed the door and left.

new York.

Dolan was a little surprised when he heard the news. He felt that Donald Sterling had water in his head. How could he make such a stupid decision?

But then he laughed. If this guy wasn't stupid, how could he have a chance?
But then Dolan was a little helpless, because he found that he didn't even have a bargaining chip to tempt the Clippers.

Dolan walked around in circles in the office, thinking hard for more than an hour but still couldn't find a feasible solution.

Now he regrets it a little. If he hadn't messed up at the beginning, it would have been better to sign one more All-Star player!It’s not like I don’t have a single chip in my hand now.

Why don't you discuss it with that loser Thomas and see if he can do anything?
Fake, everyone said that he was a waste. If he could do anything, he might as well do it himself.Thinking of this, Dolan was a little tired.

It’s really not because you don’t work hard!There is really too much waste around me.

Dolan thought for another hour or so, and he finally came up with a solution that was not a solution. This solution was to find David Stern, the NBA president.

When he thought that the NBA president would do things for team owners like them, now that he has difficulties, of course he has to go to David Stern.

So he gave David Stern a call.

The content of the call was to get Li Chen to the New York Knicks, no matter what the cost.

David Stern's mouth twitched when he heard Dolan's request. He was thinking, "Now that the Knicks have no hair, do you still want to catch a big fish?"Where are you fucking playing?

However, Dolan is an NBA team owner, and David Stern has to consider a key issue, and that is the New York ball market.

If the Knicks' record can improve, it will be really important for the development of the league.In fact, he still prefers to let Li Chen go to the New York Knicks.

If it is said that Li Chen can really bring the Knicks together, David Stern can't help but clenched his fists, which may increase the league's fan base.

But the question is, the poor Knicks have no Mao, how can they compete for Li Chen?

In fact, David Stern was a little surprised when he heard that the Clippers wanted to trade Li Chen. In his opinion, even Donald Sterling, a miser, wanted to trade Li Chen only in the 05-06 season.

But he never expected that Donald Sterling would be so anxious.

Wait, David Stern suddenly thought of one thing, that is, isn't the Knicks ranked last in the league? There is a lot of room for maneuver in this.

In the Los Angeles Lakers general manager's office.

"Phil, if we get Li Chen, what are our chances of winning the championship next season?" Mitch Cook asked expectantly.

After some consideration, Phil Jackson conservatively estimated: "80% can win the championship."

Hearing this, Mitch Cook felt happy. He knew that the 80% chance mentioned by Phil Jackson was equivalent to [-]%.

Yes, he is very optimistic about the two-guard combination of Li Chen and Kobe.

Moreover, as Li Chen is Kobe's friend and his selfless playing style, the Lakers will never have conflicts within the team again.

If Li Chen can join the Lakers, he can be sure that he can break Russell's 11 consecutive championships.

But the question is, is it really that simple?Phil Jackson is not optimistic about this trade.

"Mitch, don't be too happy. This matter is not that easy to achieve."

The excited Mitch Cook was slightly stunned and looked at Phil Jackson in surprise.

At this time Phil Jackson explained: "Don't forget that we are in the same city as the Los Angeles Clippers."

Hearing this, Mickey Cook's heart sank, yes!He was so excited just now that he forgot about it.

You know, the reason why the number of Clippers fans has skyrocketed in two seasons is because of Li Chen.

If Li Chen comes to the Los Angeles Lakers, then most Clippers fans will most likely become Lakers fans. As long as Elgin Baylor and Donald Sterling are not stupid, they will not do such stupid things. .

"I can persuade Li Chen to come and play for the Lakers."

At this moment, Kobe, who had just opened the door, said confidently.

The two of them looked at Kobe who barged in without knocking, and then smiled bitterly at each other.

Phil Jackson said: "Kobe, now that Li Chen is a guaranteed player, he doesn't have any right to speak! So even if you are good friends, it won't help."

Hearing this, Kobe's heart went cold. He clasped his hands tightly. In fact, he really wanted to play with Li Chen and stand at the top together, but now...

Finally, he said unwillingly: "Is there really no other way?"

"Kobe, all I can say is try my best." At this time, Mitch Cook said.

Kobe let out a long breath, he also knew the difficulty of this transaction.

On the other side, when Odom called Li Chen, Li Chen was completely confused.

what's the situation?Could it be that this FMVP of mine is a fake?Just after winning the championship, he was traded. This, this, what the hell is this?

Could it be that Donald Sterling wouldn't sign with the Clippers when he knew his contract was up?Or other reasons?
At this time, Odom muttered: "Farke, what do you think this is? After much tossing, we two brothers actually exchanged teams. However, the Heat is very suitable for a training madman like you."

Odom's words made Li Chen wake up from his thoughts.

"Lamar, there's no way I'm being traded from the Clippers to the Heat."

Odom was stunned, "You, you, what do you mean by that?"

"Because Riley couldn't afford the price Donald Sterling was asking for."

"Fake, you bastard, this hurts your heart, am I that bad?" Odom was so angry in his heart!

It's not that you're bad, it's just that comparing yourself to someone like B is a mistake.

Of course, Li Chen wouldn't say these words, so he said calmly: "What do you think?"

Odom "..."

Now Li Chen seems to have figured out Donald Sterling's routine.

His routine is that he is actually a stepping stone. If a team is bleeding blood, Donald Sterling will not miss it.

As soon as Odom hung up the phone, Elgin Baylor called in. He kept comforting Li Chen, saying that the team would not pay Li Chen, and Donald Sterling just wanted to see the reaction of the market.

Of course, Elgin Baylor will not talk about Alvin Gentry at this time.

Elgin Baylor's words proved his suspicions correct.

So in the following, each team made a selling price.

Lakers: Send O'Neal and a precious first-round pick.

Dallas Mavericks: Nowitzki traded for Li Chen and added a precious first-round pick.

Cuban likes Li Chen very much now, especially the kind of performance he showed when the team was in crisis during the finals.

Americans are very individualistic, and Li Chen's behavior just touched the G-spot of Cuban, a fan.

Minnesota Timberwolves: Take your pick of players and picks except Garnett.

The Timberwolves also showed enough sincerity to make an offer, but compared to the Lakers and Dallas Mavericks, it was a little less interesting.

Of course, the Timberwolves don't have any good bargaining chips except for the wolf king Garnett. They are all a group of role players, and there are no young stars like James and Anthony. The Clippers simply look down on them.

You know, Li Chen is a young core who can be used for at least 10 years.

Memphis Grizzlies: Gasol, Mike Miller, Jason Williams, several draft picks.

At that time, Gasol was able to deliver 17.7 points and 7.7 rebounds. He was definitely a good second or third-level insider.

Miller is also a good outside shooter. Like the current Pope and Kuzma, he can average more than 10 points per game and maintain a good shooting percentage.

Jason Williams is also a good pitcher.

Miami Heat: Odom, Caron Butler, Brian Grant, a first-round pick, a second-round pick.

Odom averaged 17.1 points and 9.7 rebounds per game at the time. He was a good blue-collar power forward who was particularly tough on the court.

Both Butler and Grant were powerful young men who were well-known at the time.

The Clippers did not respond to these offers.

As for that, the Knicks did not participate in the offer.
