Chapter 201 James’s plan
"But LeBron, there is one thing I still don't quite understand." Seeing that James was in a good mood, Rich Paul took the opportunity to clear up some doubts in his heart.

"Oh? What's the matter? But it doesn't matter." James sat on the sofa and asked, crossing his legs leisurely.

Rich Paul immediately poured out all the questions in his heart like beans from a bamboo tube.

"There is one thing I don't understand. Why don't you give priority to the Heat? I think the Heat are the best choice."

"You see, Du Zhe just won the championship last season and also won the FMVP. Now is the time when he is in full swing."

"If you go to the Warriors now, you will inevitably attract a lot of criticism."

"And he also plays the small forward position. A strong dragon does not overwhelm the leader. I am worried that you will have some injuries when you competed with him in the past."

"On the other hand, on the side of the Heat, Wade, Bosh and you are just in the wrong position. The current momentum of the two of them is much worse than that of Du Zhe."

"With your strength, it will not be difficult to overwhelm the two of them and lead the Heat."

"So if you go and join them..."

"Hmph!" James snorted coldly, his eyes sharpened.

Rich Paul keenly sensed that the atmosphere was not right, and he quickly corrected himself knowing that he had said something wrong.

"If you join forces with the two of them to form the Big Three, you will be strong enough to sweep the league, so why risk being overwhelmed by joining the Warriors?"

Rich Paul's voice was getting weaker and weaker. James' interruption just now made him a little lacking in confidence.

"Hahahaha! Rich, Rich, you only know one thing, not the other!" After listening to Rich Paul's question, James laughed instead of anger.

With this smile, the laughing Rich Paul was a little puzzled.

But James was not in a hurry to answer.

He shook his head proudly, poured himself another half a glass of red wine, and then began to explain slowly.

"Rich, your vision is still too narrow. You may know more about things in the mall than I do, but I know far more about things on the court than you."

"Going to the Warriors and joining forces with Du Zhe will naturally attract criticism, but will there be fewer criticisms if you go to the Heat to form the Big Three?"

"A person who is famous all over the world is better than someone who is full of slander. After I chose to leave the Knights, these rumors have long been ignored."

Hearing this, Rich Paul quickly nodded in agreement.

James continued to say with satisfaction: "Besides, although we are both small forwards, who said that I will play small forward when I go to the Warriors?"

"In fact, even if the Warriors trade me for the pick like the Heat did, we should do this deal or have to do it."

"But why do I have to guide them and use Ellis and Curry as bargaining chips in the deal? Don't you see the purpose behind this?"

James' words were inscrutable, and Rich Paul was confused when he heard them.

After thinking about it for a while, he still couldn't figure it out, so he could only answer: "Don't we want the Warriors to have more bargaining chips, so that the owner of the Cavaliers can quickly agree to sign first and then trade."

"Alas!" James sighed after hearing this, his hatred for iron not turning into steel was palpable.

But then, the pride in his tone could no longer be concealed.

"Rich, we have been brothers for many years. Today I will open the skylight and talk to you, but you can't let the second person know about this."

Before Rich Paul met James, he was just a jersey peddler, but since he got on James' boat, he has become a top agent in the league.

It should be said that everything he has today is inseparable from the blessing of James, so James has 100% trust in him.

So James continued unhurriedly: "I don't know if you have carefully studied Du Zhe's game videos, but I guess you haven't watched them either."

"Let me tell you, don't look at Du Zhe's current strength that dominates the alliance, but in fact he has a fatal flaw!"

"What's the flaw?" Rich Paul's appetite was also whetted, and he sat up straight unconsciously.

He didn't expect that Du Zhe, who overwhelmed the two giants of the Lakers and Celtics and swept all the stars like chopping melons and vegetables, would have a fatal flaw.

"Du Zhe's fatal flaw is that his dribbling and handling methods are extremely rough, and he can't even reach the most basic level of the NBA!"

"No way, this...how is this possible?" Rich Paul muttered to himself.

Although he has great trust in James' vision as a top star, he is still a little skeptical at this time.

But James asked back with great determination.

"How is this impossible?"

"After being eliminated by the Celtics last season, I made a request to the team to sign Du Zhe. At that time, several scouts from the Cavaliers and I carefully analyzed his game video."

"We found that Du Zhe rarely took the initiative to attack with the ball in the game, and most of his scoring methods were three-pointers and air cuts."

"And advanced data shows that Du Zhe's assist rate is also the highest in the league!"

Having said so much in one breath, James paused for a moment, took a sip of the red wine in his glass, and asked, "Speaking of which, do you see any tricks?"

Rich Paul thought for a while, and then said boldly: "You mean, this Du Zhe is just a player who eats cakes. In fact, he doesn't have the ability to launch an attack on his own?"

"Basically close to ten!" James confidently put down his wine glass.

"However, I have to admit that Du Zhe's off-ball ability is really good. You say he only knows how to eat cakes, but he really doesn't understand the ball!" James criticized, but his face showed a teachable expression .

Once the chatterbox was opened, James couldn't hold it back, so he couldn't help but continue to show off.

"And we found by analyzing the video that Du Zhe rarely dribbled the ball during the game, but most of his mistakes were made while dribbling."

"This is even more solid. His dribbling ability is average, and he has no offensive ability with the ball at all!"

"It's just that this kid is a badass player. He has been using his strengths to avoid his weaknesses on the court. He basically doesn't do high-intensity dribbling. In addition, Curry and Ellis have two ball-holding organizations, so he is like a fish in water for the Warriors. "

Hearing this, Rich Paul's eyes lit up, and he seemed to have figured something out: "You mean, combine Ellis with..."

However, James, who was in high spirits, didn't give him a chance to interrupt at all, so he patted his thigh and continued.

"That's right, the reason Du Zhe was able to play so comfortably in the Warriors last season was not because Curry and Ellis helped him organize the offense with the ball."

"If Ellis and Curry are taken away through a trade, wouldn't the Warriors' back line be empty?"

"Do you remember what position I played in my first season?"

Rich Paul would naturally not forget this kind of thing. He blurted out: "Point guard!"
