NBA: This Center Is So Stable
Chapter 48
The new season is coming.
Chapter 48 Pure Nuggets boss
“Mr. Randy, do you think Wang Song will really go to Denver?”
The Heat scout still has Wang Song in his mind.
In the trading period at the end of last season, the Heat almost took out all the chips they could.
But they still couldn’t get a suitable pick!
The top three teams are all top foxes, one more clever than the other.
It’s because there are too many hot rookies this season, so most teams don’t want to miss this opportunity.
Instead of directly exchanging the pick for some immediate combat power, it’s better to directly select a combat power in the draft.
The quality of this rookie can fully carry the banner!
“Not necessarily! Or, most likely not!”
Randy Finley’s firm tone also attracted John’s curiosity.
“Boss, what do you think?”
“When we tried to trade with the Nuggets, the other party refused to agree. Do you remember? Do you think that group of highlanders in Denver are going to use this bait to catch big fish, or have they sold their bait at a high price?”
John thought of his experience in Denver that day, and suddenly realized.
Rather than training a rookie center, he should also be equipped with players in other positions.
Denver management should be more inclined to build a playoff team as quickly as possible.
Because for the owner of the Nuggets, it is more important to achieve results than to train rookies and wait for them to grow.
Stan Kroenke is the world’s largest sports industry tycoon.
He also owns the Denver Nuggets basketball team, the Colorado Avalanche ice hockey team, and the St. Louis Rams football team.
And there are rumors that he is also planning to acquire a Premier League historical super giant to fill the gap in the football field.
The owner of the Nuggets is such a pure businessman. From the perspective of short-term investment, the value that the third pick can bring to the Nuggets is far less than the value that the third pick can directly realize. Since the establishment of the Nuggets, the team has never won any championship trophies in its history. As of 2003! It has never entered the finals for 27 years! Even if the management philosophy of the owner Stan Kroenke is to delegate power to the team management, the Denver executives are unwilling to wait for the next decade to hand in their answers. “It’s all the fault of these dirty Detroit people. They have the ability but don’t realize it. Instead, they waste the second pick to select an unknown Serbian player.” Randy Finley gritted his teeth and muttered. John scratched his head apologetically. It seems that he reminded the boss of something sad. After the draft. The players’ mission is over, but the team’s mission has just begun. July 1.
The trading market opened with great fanfare, and all teams started trading with chips in hand.
Before the start of the new season, a wave of big fish fishing in the free market was carried out.
And trades between rookies!
The Denver Nuggets, which signed Wang Song, is one of them.
Scott was waiting at the door of the trading market early, pacing back and forth and looking quite uneasy.
As if he was afraid that his deal would fall through!
Coincidentally.
The Nuggets thought so too.
Just using an Asian center, they could exchange for the second-highest scorer of the New York Knicks and the NCAA star forward with the sixth pick.
One for two, the Nuggets executives thought it was a good deal!
They even began to look forward to the Nuggets’ lineup system after it was formed, which would be the most successful deal in history.
Both sides signed contracts on the basis of mutual benefit, and each took their own players away.
“Just wait and see, Wang Song! Knicks, you will regret it!”
Before being taken away by the Nuggets, Carmelo Anthony muttered to himself on the way to Denver, reading the news of the trade.
Signed with the 6th pick, his salary in the rookie season will be much lower than Wang Song’s.
Another thing is that this will directly affect the maximum salary cap when renewing the contract later.
So he was actually a little unhappy with the Nuggets’ deal.
But unfortunately.
When the Nuggets notified him that they would sign him through a trade, it was already very late.
He also tried to contact other teams, but most of the teams had already decided on the candidates at that time.
It’s true: you ignored me at the beginning, but you can’t afford me now!
······
“Welcome, Wang, welcome to the Knicks!”
That night.
After leaving Madison Square Garden, the local New York Knicks executives set up a table to celebrate
A celebration banquet to celebrate Wang Song’s joining.
David Falk was also among them, and he agreed with this phenomenon very much.
When the team executives can get drunk in front of the players, you can imagine what their relationship with the players is like.
“By the way, Wang, you probably don’t have a place to live in New York yet, right? Otherwise, I’ll buy you an apartment, so you don’t have to go through the trouble of renting a house and moving. You’ll have a place to stay in New York in the future. And when are you moving? You can call me, and I’ll ask someone to help you.”
Ernie Grunfeld shook in front of Scott Redden.
“Boss, are you drunk?”
Wang Song and David Falk looked at each other and spread their hands.
The two Knicks executives in front of them were flushed, and they couldn’t tell how much drunkenness and how much sincerity they had.
Anyway.
Just treat the words on the table as a joke!
Wang Song didn’t take it to heart.
I have received 1.5 million yuan of advertising fees from New Fox Sports in one lump sum, which is still a small amount of money.
Even in New York, it is not a big problem to buy myself a decent house.
I have to arrange a car, and it is okay to live in the dormitory of the university and go to the school stadium.
NBA is a business league, and it is necessary to have a suitable means of transportation.
After the celebration, Wang Song returned to the hotel suite arranged by the Knicks.
“Ding, it is detected that the host has successfully joined the NBA team, and the latest task has been issued!”
[Emerging: Win the best rookie honor and lead the Knicks to the Eastern Conference Finals! ]
[Completion (Emerging) Reward: 50,000 experience points, three badges are randomly activated! ]
[A new starting point, come on, young man, the future is yours! ]
The task prompt in his mind made Wang Song sober up a lot from his slightly drunk state.
“By the way, after unlocking the badge system, it seems that I haven’t used it yet!”
The system’s prompt sound reminded Wang Song that the new module had not been used yet, and he suddenly had a desire to try it.
But before that, I have to go back to North Carolina to pick up my things and say goodbye to my former teammates.
······
The next day.
On the way to North Carolina, Wang Song was also informed of a large amount of news about the trading market through print and electronic media.
Among them, the blockbuster trade between the Pistons and the Knicks caused a stir.
Netizens in the United States said:
“It’s unbelievable that Denver actually gave up Wang Song on its own initiative. That Asian big guy looks perfect!”
“They have Nene and Marcus Camby, and they don’t need that Asian kid at all. I knew it when they signed that Asian kid.”
“Didn’t anyone notice… that the Knicks sent away the ‘madman’ Latrell Sprewell? That’s the second in command of the Knicks. The Knicks executives must be crazy!”
