NBA: Legendary coach signs with league for 10 years

Denver.

Wang Chen found the information about the Sonics in his room and started to study it.

Because just now, the Sonics became the first team to agree to his request.

To be honest, the Sonics were completely outside of Wang Chen's plan. He had never considered the Sonics from the beginning.

"Remember the draft picks. The Sonics' ranking is not very high, and they can't even select Iguodala, so they can only trade up with players."

Wang Chen looked at the Sonics' roster and felt a little overwhelmed.

To be honest, if the Sonics want to win the championship with this lineup, Lewis is better to be traded for a currently underestimated star.

But the Sonics locked up Lewis and Ray Allen, and also locked up next year's first-round draft pick.

Although this year's draft is not as brilliant as the 03 generation, there are many practical stars who are all good championship puzzles. But if next year's draft pick is locked, it will be difficult to trade for a first-round draft pick.

The authority given by the Sonics seems generous, but it actually leaves it to Wang Chen to operate. There really isn't much room.

But now the Sonics are the only team willing to give up power, even if it's not much, there's nothing they can do.

His bottom line is to give power, even if the room for maneuver is not big, it's the only one at the moment.

And judging from the attitudes of other teams at the time, they basically looked at him as an idiot, and there was no room for negotiation at all.

The Magic have much more room for maneuver, but the Magic wouldn't even let Wang Chen trade any players other than the core players.

Just when Wang Chen was taking notes on the Sonics' plan, the phone suddenly rang.

This made Wang Chen curious, who was calling him at this time?

"Jordan?"

Wang Chen had Jordan's phone number and saw the name of the caller.

Wang Chen felt a little strange. Usually only the teams would call him at this time. Why would Jordan call him?

Jordan had not become the team owner at this time. He became the big boss of the team several years later.

However, because he had a good relationship with Jordan recently and Jordan had spoken for him on the last show, Wang Chen also took the time to answer Jordan's call.

"Michael (Jordan), why did you suddenly think of calling me?"

Wang Chen put down the notes he made on the Sonics roster.

"Haha, I've heard that many teams are looking for you recently."

Jordan said with a smile

"Excuse me, no one is looking for me now."

Wang Chen couldn't help but smile when he heard that Jordan was here for this matter.

"Are you interested in coming to Charlotte?"

After a few pleasantries, Jordan suddenly said

""Charlotte? Michael, have you bought a team?"

Wang Chen was stunned. Jordan must be planning to buy a team if he asked this.

"Well, Robert and I have almost finished the discussion. I will buy it as soon as you give me a verbal promise."

Jordan said it lightly.

But Wang Chen could tell that Jordan bought the team in advance because he bought it.

"My conditions......"(To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

Although Wang Chen was a little surprised that Jordan was willing to buy the team in advance for him, business is business, and he couldn't give up his original conditions just because Jordan bought the team in advance for him.

"Of course, the Bobcats will start selecting players from various teams, drafting, and trading. It's all up to you."

"You just saved me the money of the general manager."

Jordan said jokingly.

In fact, Jordan also wanted to have a taste of his own fun and experience the fun of selecting players, but since he had already made the decision, Jordan was still single.

Wang Chen was a little confused after hearing this, mainly because he felt that Jordan's words were too shocking. He actually gave up all the power?

""How about it? It's better than the conditions offered by the Supersonics, right?"

Jordan suddenly said.

Wang Chen's doubts were immediately resolved.

He didn't expect Jordan to be well-informed and had already found out the conditions offered by the Supersonics.

As a team that had just entered the league, the Bobcats didn't have any players yet, and they were just a head coach without any players.

With the Supersonics, a team with a decent foundation, willing to give him half of the power, the Bobcats really had to give him all the power to make him interested.

"Michael, let me be honest with you. I am very optimistic about this year's draft."

"So I will probably trade for the team's draft pick for next year, and you have to be prepared to spend money to buy a second-round draft pick."

Wang Chen was really tempted, but in order to make Jordan 220 not feel that he was being cheated, Wang Chen planned to make it clear in advance.

Sure enough, after hearing what Wang Chen said, Jordan also took a breath.

The Bobcats will get a good draft pick. Although it has not been announced yet, the league's support for the Bobcats should not be too low.

But under this premise, Wang Chen actually wanted to trade draft picks on a large scale.

As for spending money to buy a second-round draft pick, Jordan thought it was okay.

Hundreds of millions have been spent, so he doesn't care about a few million.

"Wang, tell me everything you have to say."

Jordan thought that Wang Chen must have other plans since he was so open with him.

"I might trade some rookies who perform well in the middle of the season."

"As for the bargaining chips for the trade, when selecting players from other teams, I might choose some high-salary, low-performance, bad contracts as bargaining chips."

Wang Chen also told us his original plan.

Jordan:......

"Let me calm down for a while."
