Chapter 52 A More Important Signing Agreement (Part Three)

On July 7, the Magic announced that they had reached a sign-and-trade agreement with the Supersonics, and obtained Lewis, an outstanding offensive striker, from the Supersonics.Lewis signed a five-year contract with a total value of approximately $12 million.

On July 7, the Nets officially reached an agreement with the team's All-Star guard Vince Carter. This new contract will last for 14 years, with a total value of more than 5 million US dollars, of which the first 8000 years are guaranteed contracts, and the total salary $4 million.

On July 7, Gerald Wallace signed a 20-year, 6 million new contract with the Bobcats.

But this is nothing. These signings, which were once hotly discussed by NBA fans, lost their news value almost instantly on August 8st.

"On August 8, Kevin Garnett officially joined the Celtics. Celtics use AL-Jefferson, Gerald Green, Ryan Gomez, Telfair and Ratliff , The Celtics also need to take the two first-round picks in 1 (the protection of the top three picks in the draft), and the way of supplementing the difference with cash to complete the deal for the Wolf King.”

When the Celtics announced the deal on their official website, the whole world went crazy. This is the biggest group action in the basketball world since the Lakers F4 fell apart.

"Big Three", "Three-Headed Monster" and other digital words related to three appeared in newspapers, magazines, and TV programs all related to basketball.

The details of Ray Allen's and Garnett's transactions were dug out bit by bit by the belated media, and they repeatedly appeared in the follow-up reports of the media.

"Can the Celtics win the championship this year?"

Many experts jumped out and said they had something to say.

"What impact does the Celtics' Big Three lineup have on the NBA?"

Many experts jumped out and said they had something to say.

"Will the Celtics repeat the mistakes of the Lakers in the F4 period, with no results, and then quickly disintegrate?"

Many experts jumped out, and they still have something to say.

One said that the Celtics will be the biggest candidate for the championship this season, and the other said that the Celtics' distribution of ball rights will make them get nothing.One is about robbing, the other is about taking what they need, there are also shady theories, and conspiracy theories are endless.

"No, our deal is still going on, we still have one of the most important signings of this summer in operation!"

When the matter was almost fermented, the words of Celtics general manager Danny Ainge made the media jump up in an instant.

"The Celtics are pursuing O'Neal!"

A media outlet swears by saying this, and it is even more evidenced by a picture, but it is slightly blurred, and it can only be seen that there is indeed a fat man among the people who are talking.

"Jason Kidd to the New Jersey Nets: 'Trade me!'"

"Allen Iverson is about to leave Denver, just for the championship!"

Among the trading rumors flying all over the sky, only these three have been recognized by most fans. Brown et al.

The implicated teams couldn't wait to stand up and refute the rumors, but they seemed to be covering up more and more.

Facing this intensifying transaction farce, Shi Lei, who was unaware, fell into fear and trouble at this moment.

The fear stems from the bias of memory. He simply doesn't remember any bigger deal for the Celtics. Not being traded to the Timberwolves as a headliner can't make him feel any joy in this situation.

The trouble comes from the media, the Chinese media.

Yi Jianlian's high ranking has undoubtedly added fuel to the already hot Chinese basketball, which has allowed many magazines with basketball as their main selling point to develop very well.These media are also paying attention to the NBA and the follow-up of the hot Celtics team's trade. They, who cannot compare with their American counterparts in terms of connections, have shifted their attention to the fact that in their cognition, they have already joined the team. Shi Lei of the Celtics.

The phone rang all the time, and the "interview" invitations that couldn't be answered made Shi Lei miserable during this period of time. For this reason, after he informed his parents, he stopped using this number, but it didn't help.

In the hotel, on the way to the team, no matter where he was, people could always find him, so reports with Shi Lei's name occasionally appearing in domestic magazines.

"The Celtics after the trade."

"Who is the next target of the Celtics? Why is it so taboo?"

"The No.1 outsider in China talks about the 'Big Three', they will make the Celtics even greater!"

On August 8, according to a staff member of the Celtics team, their next operation has entered a substantive stage.

On August 8, Danny Ainge said that the Celtics will announce their signing soon.

On the same day, Rivers said in an interview with the media that he was experiencing "happiness troubles" in the tactical arrangement of the new season!
Paul Pierce also said that he is extremely looking forward to the completion of this signing.Although he, who understands the truth of the whole thing, is already tired of this job year after year, but with his pure Celtic blood, this team is as deeply rooted in his heart as a belief , as the leader of the team, he must consider both the present and the future!

Inheritance is sometimes a temptation!Pierce thought of Walker again. In those years, Walker should have felt the same way about him, right?
"Yes, that's a great guy!" Garnett said as well.Of course, all of this was inspired by Danny Ainge. He has his own way of persuading the team's "giants".

The "future" of this team is not something Garnett should consider. He came here just for a ring. As for other things, it doesn't matter, as long as his "help" can bring what he needs. "Help", he has a reason to do something!
The eyes of half the world were attracted by the Celtics. A large number of reporters rushed here from all over the world. In order to obtain first-hand information, they surrounded the TD North Shore Garden Arena layer by layer.

From time to time, there is a gossip, which is spread from here to a certain corner of the world, and then spread throughout the whole world.

Without basketball, unable to go to the training hall, and the future is uncertain, where and how it will be opened, Shi Lei hides anxiously in the new hotel.He dare not go out. The stalking by the media may be the greatest pursuit of a person living under fluorescent lights, but when the interview questions are repeated non-stop and have nothing to do with you, all that is left is disgust.

"Awful!"

If he had to make another comment on this period of time, Shi Lei would definitely say so.

"Sign a contract?"

In this situation, Shi Lei received a call from the team.

"Yes, tomorrow!"

Satisfied with the sensation he created, the complacent Danny Angie personally called Shi Leidao.

"It reminds me of Mr. Auerbach."

This is what Rivers said to Angie, and Angie thinks this is his greatest compliment.

"Okay, sir, can you tell me where I'm going to be traded?"

Shi Lei had had enough of guessing riddles, he couldn't wait to find out who his next family would be.

"Trading? No, no, no, you won't be traded?"

An Ji hastily denied it, but Shi Lei no longer believed this statement, and asked more directly: "Aren't you going to make a more important signing? I want to ask who is that? Whose bargaining chip will I be?" one?"

"Oh, no, dear Shi, we don't have a deal, you won't leave the Celtics, and you won't be anyone's bargaining chip, no one, you are the more important signing!"
