NBA: Starting with the Devil’s Eyes

Chapter 059

Jack McCloskey took the phone and asked:

“Hello, Reid, is there something going on?”

Auerbach said, “I want to trade with you. ”

Is it a second-round pick? ”

Jack McCloskey said.

“It’s not a second-round pick, and if it’s a second-round pick, it won’t be me talking to you.” ”

Well, although Auerbach said this somewhat arrogantly.

But Jack McCloskey knew it was.

As the current Celtics, if it was just a second-round pick, it would have been Auerbach’s deputy who called him.

Now, Auerbach called himself, there must be something very important.

“We need that signature in your hand!”

Auerbach’s words were firm.

“Watt?”

After hearing Auerbach’s words, Jack McCloskey was directly stunned.

“Reid, you know, you’re only the 21st pick this year. ”

“What chips can you take in exchange for this title?”

“Is Reggie Lewis enough?” said Auerbach calmly.

“WTF？？”

After hearing Auerbach’s chips, A Jack McCloskey on the phone was directly stunned.

Reggie Lewis?

That’s the next hope for the Celtics’ rise!

This season, Reggie Lewis averaged 20.8 points, 4.8 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.5 blocks and 1.3 steals per game.

An absolute all-round striker.

This year’s All-Star, Reggie Lewis, was also successfully selected.

And Lewis is only 25 years old this year, which is definitely an opportunity for the Celtics to rise again.

As a result, Alba directly wanted to take out Lewis and sell it?

“If not, Robert Parrish, McHale. You can also pick between the two of them. ”

“I don’t want their words. ”

“I can also find other teams, those that are in the top 10 or even the top five. I can get these teams into a three-way deal. Give them Robert Parrish or McHale. ”

“Maybe at the end of the day you can take Reggie Lewis and a top 10 pick and get a first-round pick for years to come.” ”

“How?”

After hearing the conditions that Auerbach gave him, Jack McCloskey was a little dizzy.

Lying groove, this particular Celtic is crazy, right?

Unexpectedly opened such a crazy offer??

On the other side, the Celtic staff also looked at Auerbach with the eyes of a madman.

Auerbach never spoke to them about this.

They only learned about this when Auerbach called just now.

And with what these people know about Auerbach, the reason why he dared to do this was definitely premeditated for a long time.

Auerbach’s goal this year is to sign the champion!

Crazy, really crazy.

Reggie Lewis is going to be sent out by the cardinal!

Jack McCloskey is calculating.

Reggie Lewis looked at the data, and indeed better than Sam Perkins.

As the core of the Timberwolves, it is also absolutely qualified.

It seems that the chips of the Celtics and Lakers are only different in this year’s draft pick.

Auerbach will most likely be able to trade Robert Parrish or McHale for the fourth and fifth picks.

But the Lakers could have come up with the second pick.

At this time, someone reminded Jack McClossky.

“Don’t forget one thing, sir. ”

Reggie Lewis, he seemed to have something wrong with his heart. ”

After hearing this man’s reminder, Jack McCloskey immediately woke up.

Indeed, don’t look at Reggie Lewis’ data so almighty.

But there was a problem with his heart.

Basketball is a high-intensity sport, although Reggie Lewis has played 82 games this past season.

But what if he can’t play after coming to the Timberwolves because of heart problems?

Moreover, the Timberwolves now have a lot of talent in the small forward position.

Reggie Lewis, who is at risk for heart disease, is not necessarily needed.

On the contrary, Sam Perkins of the Lakers is in good health and has good physical fitness.

With an average of 16+8 per game, he is definitely a qualified power forward.

Moreover, the fourth and fifth picks given to them by Auerbach seem to be unable to select players like Leitner and O’Neill.

In this comparison, Auerbach shouted fiercely.

Actually, it’s really a bit of a pit for what he meant.

He immediately rejected Auerbach’s request for a trade.

“I’m sorry, Reid, the chips you’ve made are unbelievable. ”

“I was afraid that you would trap me, so I chose to refuse the deal. ”

Auerbach on the other end of the phone was directly dumbfounded after hearing Jack McCloskey’s reason for refusing the deal.

I’m Nima, because the chips I’ve opened are too big, and you’re afraid of being pitted.

So you specifically refused the deal???

Looking at the microphone with a blind sound, Auerbach shook his head helplessly.

He certainly wouldn’t believe Jack McCloskey’s claims.

He looked at the dazed staff again and said with a smile: “It’s just a boring attempt.” ”

“I didn’t expect that Jack McCloskey this kid didn’t take the bait, he learned to be smart…”

At this time, in the small green room, Lu Yu came to O’Neill’s side and chatted with O’Neill.

“Shaq, how did you know I got the NCAA?”

O’neill:……

Are you okay?

Looking at O’Neill rolling his eyes, Lu Yu laughed and said, “Just kidding, kidding.” ”

At this time, O’Neill’s heart was not very comfortable.

He and Lu Yu still have fought a lot.

He always wanted to defeat Lu Yu.

But until now, he had not defeated Lu Yu even once.

And as a loser, he also watched Lu Yu win the final championship.

“Well, why didn’t Letner come to the draft, why did he leave me alone with his taunts?”

O’Neill thought to himself.

Immediately afterwards, his eyes became firm again.

“After entering the NBA, I have to let you lose once!”

At this time, David Stern also walked out.

Under everyone’s gaze, Stern began to speak.

However, no one had the energy to listen to Stern’s speech.

Because everyone wants to know how many picks they will be selected.

“Lao Zhang, what do you say Lu Yu was selected?”

At this time, Xu Jicheng asked beside Zhang Weiping.

During this time, the good cooperation between [Lu Yu Sports] and CCTV made Wuyang decide to continue to send reporters to follow and report Lu Yu’s NBA journey.

After all, Lu Yu is the first player in the history of the Celestial Empire to land in the NBA.

This still makes a lot of sense.

Zhang Weiping pondered for a while and said, “At least the top three! ”

“During this time, Lu Yu’s trial training effect was very good. ”

“It’s been very good both offensively and defensively. ”

“A lot of teams want to pick him. ”

……

At this time, the Lakers draft war room.

West looked at the list in his hand, his head full of question marks.

I’m Nima, you Timberwolf brain has a bag, right?

Because the Timberwolves gave the list, don’t want Sam Perkins!

Turned to Byron Scott, and Saidalusrhit.

This is the Lakers’ starting point guard and starting shooting guard this season. [ Read more novels for free on our website: tinyurl.com/2aa54z8b ]

Saidalsritt averaged 15 points, 3 rebounds, 7 assists and 2 steals per game.

Byron Scott averaged 15 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists and 1.3 steals per game.

Yuwest called Jack McCloskey directly.

“What’s going on, buddy, what’s going on, how is it different from what we just said?”

“Well, I think Sam Perkins’ salary is a bit expensive, and our forward line is not bad. ”

“So I think these two are the best fit for us Timberwolves. ”

“Wouldn’t you disagree?”

“No, no, of course I agreed. West said quickly.

For him, the only thing the team can’t move is Worthy.

Because James Worthy’s position with the Lakers is solid.

After Maggie retired, James Worthy was the totemic figure of the Lakers.

If you trade him, it will be very detrimental to the next work.

Saidalsritt only came to the Lakers this season, so there’s no problem.

Although Byron Scott has been with the Lakers since 1983 and won 3 championships with the team, he also belongs to the old Lakers.

But in terms of status, it is not as good as James Worthy, and he is also a little emotional about the team’s rottenness.

So gritting your teeth, you can also send it away.

After hearing Jerry West’s words, the corners of Jack McCloskey’s mouth turned up.

I’m such a genius!

The salary of Sreite + Kurt is only 1.7 million in total!

And Perkins’ salary alone is 2.7 million!

I saved a million!

A Sam Perkins, the data is 16+8.

And I changed two people, one averaged 15 points, 7 assists and 2 steals per game, and one averaged 15+1.3 steals per game.

In this way, it is 30 points, 7 assists and 3.3 steals!

Saving 1 million and getting two people averaging 15 points per game is a good deal.

Jack McCloskey feels that this time he is definitely Heifer flying to the sky!

After hanging up the phone, he shouted: “This summer is a summer that belongs to the Timberwolves!!”

“This is definitely an epic draft operation!”

West hung up the phone and looked at the list again.

Well?

How is there something wrong.

How did the Timberwolves send Luke Longley out?

This is the player that the Timberwolves selected with the seventh pick in the first round last year.

So it was sent out…

Moreover, West also noticed one thing.

In 1990, the Timberwolves joined the league and selected Felton Spencer with the sixth overall pick.

A center.

In 1991, the Timberwolves selected Lucronley with the seventh overall pick.

But because of Spencer’s presence, Langley didn’t play well in his first season with the Timberwolves.

Averaging 4.3 points and 3.9 rebounds per game, shooting just 45% from the field, he was called a soft egg by the media.

The Timberwolves owner felt that the results of the previous general manager were indeed not good, so he directly replaced him.

Then came the current Jack McCloskey to host the draft.

Jack McCloskey immediately intended to send Luc Longley away.

Then, he planned to choose Leitner in this year’s 1992 draft.

There’s nothing wrong with that, it’s a big year for centers.

The three centers Leitner, O’Neill and Mourning all played very well in college.

After Longley left, he also happened to give Lightnateng a place.

However, choosing three centers in a row for three years, this operation is really a bit explosive…

This operation is comparable to 2009, when the Timberwolves selected three point guards with three picks.

Perfect missed Stephen Curry, DeRozan, Johollodi.

“Luck Langley…”

Looking at the name, West pondered for a moment, feeling that he should not stay.

In the new season, the team will definitely play a fast-paced offensive game.

Luke Longley is too heavy, can’t run fast and jump high, and it’s a complete drag on the Lakers’ side.

Moreover, the team also has a white center Devac.

“Pull another team, organize a three-way deal!”

“Sam Perkins is going to have to be sent away, and if it doesn’t, something will definitely go wrong in the locker room. ”

While Stern was still on the phone, Jerry West immediately began asking the teams if they wanted to make a trade.

“Hey, Elkin. ”

With this in mind, West dialed his good brother, good teammate, Al Gin Baylor, who was the president of the Clippers at the time.

“Jerry, what’s wrong?”

Baylor asked.

“That’s right, congratulations on making the playoffs!”

“You’ve played so well this season that you even hit the Jazz in the Western Conference to a break-five!”

Hearing West say this, Baylor also said regretfully: “Yes, it’s a pity, if we can beat the Jazz, we may be the team that reached the Western Conference Finals.” ”

“I believe we can beat the Blazers and make it to the Finals to play with the Bulls!”

West said: “I think you lost by one point. ”

“Which point?”

Your rebounds were snatched up by Karl Mallon, and if you had the right center to protect your rebounds, you would have beaten the Jazz!”

Do you want to trade the center on your team?” asked Baylor.

“Where do we have great centre-forwards in the team. But I organized a three-way deal to get Lucronley, will you take over Lukrandley?”

He’s watered,” Baylor said after hearing Longley’s name.

He’s just lacking playing time!”

“He’s the seventh pick, and trust me, this is definitely a player for the Clippers!”

Jerry West said: “I believe in your ability, you can definitely cultivate Longley!”

“Hmm… What do you want from the Clippers?”

“I don’t want your people, I want your draft picks. I’ll take Longley, the seventh pick, and exchange your 16th pick for the draft pick, and you won’t lose!”

……

On the field, David Stern’s speech finally ended.

“Next, ask the Minnesota Timberwolves to make their choice,” he said. ”

Within a minute, the Timberwolves submitted their draft results.

“Congratulations to the Timberwolves, they chose Lu Yu with the first pick!”

After Lu Yu heard it, he glanced at Jeff Austin beside him.

Austin answered a call at this time and said to Lu Yu: “Don’t worry, everything is under control!”

“There will be deals. ”

Lu Yu nodded, first got up and hugged a few friends around him, intending to delay the time factory.

Unfortunately, there was a slight problem with the visa. His parents failed to come to the draft.

Sure enough, after about a minute of delay, the deal came out.

“The Timberwolves, Lakers, Clippers made a three-way deal!”
