The Whip of the God of Basketball

Leon originally had his arms propped on his knees, hunched his back to watch the upcoming second game on the field, and then he felt that one of them was sitting next to him and his legs were raised. A novel＜﹤＜

He caught a glimpse of the shoes on the person's feet, Versace's canvas shoes, which are simple in style but delicate in materials. They look like ordinary cloth shoes, but they feel completely different when worn on the feet. Leon remembers that Paljuka had a pair, which Khomeinis bought for her father. The unit price was $35oo without discount. Those who are successful like these things that are flat on the outside and hidden in the universe.

The man took out a cigar from his pocket, which was Cleopatra, whom Leon was familiar with, and handed it to Leon. This is Auerbach's favorite cigar now.

"Cleopatra, it seems that Mr. Riley understands my taste very well." Leon took the cigar, put it under his nose and smelled it. The outer wrapper was well wrapped, thick and oily, but the shredded tobacco inside Relatively fresh, so that the flavor is strong but not too choking, so it is deeply loved by the old bishop.

And the person who handed the cigar was the general manager of the Heat, Pat Riley, the fortune teller with the Four Rings in hand.

It stands to reason that Riley does not need to be there in person for pediatric games like the Summer League. But first he wants to observe the rookie Wade just selected, which is Riley's proud choice in this year's draft; on the other hand, the Heat's lineup needs to be further added. This year the Heat let go of Mourning Riley and need to try their luck here to see if there are some small fish and shrimps that can fill the vacancy.

"Make a deal, Leon." Riley didn't bother to discuss the cigar with Leon, although this cigar was carefully selected after he inquired about Leon's taste.

Leon did not speak, but wiped the cigar, and then held it in his mouth unceremoniously. But he didn't bring a match, so he could only bite like this and looked at Riley.

Riley smiled, took out a bag of long stick matches from his pocket, burned one, and Leon moved up, let the wrapper pass the fire, and then slowly lit the cigar head.

It is certainly not allowed to smoke in the training hall, but the staff saw that it was Fox Leon and Pat Riley, they were discouraged. Fox Leon even dared to smoke a cigar in Staples, not to mention in the magic training hall.

"I need a guard." Leon said to Riley very simply after taking a breath. Both are extremely clever guys, and don't need too much nonsense at all, you can know the other's intentions in one sentence.

So Leon doesn't want to hide anything, they are now lacking a guard, whether it is a point guard or a shooting guard. The Heat do not necessarily have the players Leon wants, but since Riley says he wants to trade, he can definitely get the chips Leon wants.

At this point, Leon still believes in **** fortune.

Of course Riley came prepared. In fact, from the first day of the summer league, he has taken a fancy to the Celtics power forward Haslem, who is not tall enough but has some unusual fighting spirit. Players.

Riley has investigated Haslem, he was a loser, no one in the 2oo2 draft, then went to France to play for a year. Riley also knows some details. For example, Haslem has a physique that is easy to lose weight. In order to lose weight in Europe, he has insisted on almost cruel training. This training style is very suitable for Riley's appetite.

And Haslem is a native of Miami, which will also be a favorable factor. Playing for his hometown is what every player desires.

Just when Riley wanted to contact Haslem, he was taken a step ahead by the Celtics and directly recruited him.

Riley is not in a hurry, and the Celtics will not sign with Haslem immediately. The summer league just looks at Haslem's foundation. In the three games, Haslem performed very well, especially today. His defense against Wade is a textbook, which made Riley determined to get Haslem.

However, although Riley can choose to directly contact Haslem to sign, the Celtics have the priority to sign after all, and Haslem has been training at the Celtics training camp, and will definitely choose Celtic first. people.

To be on the safe side, Riley decided to make a small deal with the Celtics head coach, and everyone exchanged contract resources. Riley knew what the Celtics wanted, and he had exactly what they wanted.

Leon's words can be said to be right in Riley's arms. He gently pressed his temple with his thumb and middle finger, and said, "I have some point guard resources in my hand. Of course I know that Mr. Fox Leon has a lot of contacts in the league and has many eye lines. , Will definitely find better players."

As a successful senior, Riley was able to lower his status for a losing draft, negotiated terms with Fox Leon, and even praised Leon, but he was very frightened when he was replaced by others, and he wished to complete the transaction immediately so as not to owe too much. Favors.

Leon was unmoved. He had heard Auerbach say that Pat Riley is the most like him in the past in the league. You must be careful and careful with such a person, even if you exchange a coin with him. Be careful not to get a dime away from the quilt.

"I worked for the league, but you know, most of them are mediocre people. Actually, I really want to know what kind of players I have here. It's worth your personal talk about the deal. Do you want to Change to Miami?" Leon said jokingly.

Now that the two people basically know each other's needs, Leon can guess that Riley probably wants Haslem, because his performance in these games is indeed more eye-catching. The data is not outstanding, but anyone who knows the ball can tell at a glance that this guy can play nBa.

However, there is room for everything to work before the two really turn over their cards. And Haslem is a free agent, and if he really wants to make a deal, it will only be a verbal deal. Although it does not have legal effect, Riley still has the basic credibility of nBa.

This kind of private verbal agreement has more room for operation. Leon didn't intend to make a fortune on the fortune teller, but he didn't want to suffer a dumb loss.

"I have a plan, you can think about it." Riley said while tapping his knees with his fingers, his eyes still fixed on the game.

"You know we chose Wade this year, an excellent guy, you should feel it. So, the original defender Eddie House is not that important. I am going to trade him. He signed a two-year contract with us. , Next year’s salary is about 700,000. I can trade House for your future second-round pick with a little cash.” Riley offered his terms, but Leon knew that this was not all.

"Is that all?" Leon asked back, and the deal seemed to send warmth no matter what.

"There is one more small condition. I want to sign a player from your training camp. I hope you can give it to me.. It's the guy who played on the bench for Dalemport. I am a little interested in him." Riley was only then. Showed the real purpose, he wanted Haslem.

Riley has just recently contacted Haslem’s agent, but his agent felt that the Celtics were also very optimistic about Haslem, so he wanted the Lions to open his mouth, and Riley only wanted to sign one first. One-year contract.

If Leon gives up the attempt to sign with Haslem, then the draft pick who has no choice will naturally accept his one-year contract.

As for Eddie House, the Heat were not prepared to implement his team options. He will be a free agent in a dozen days. If he can mix a second-round pick with a little cash, Riley would be very happy.

Riley's abacus is crackling. Everyone knows that Riley is always good at playing big deals, either he doesn't make a move, or he makes a big move. But where the corners can take advantage of the oily water, Riley will not let it go easily.

And Riley has a more important purpose, which is to personally meet this summer's famous Celtics marshal. Knowing more insider trading, he knows that in the future this person is likely to be a huge Heat rise in the east. obstacle. He wanted to see how much the guy who was said to have driven Garnett's deal in the first place.

Faced with Leon’s tentative offer, Leon saw many unreasonable factors at a glance, such as bargaining chips, quotations, trading methods, and private agreements. Even if Leon could agree, Angie would curse Leon as a blood spray. A player who can be done with a special case has to go around such a big circle and catch a Haslem~www.readwn.com~ Leon is not stupid, but he also knows that Riley is not stupid. He doesn’t want to be here. A waste of words on meaningless transactions, Riley led him by the nose.

"Mr. Riley, I think this deal is a bit too complicated. In fact, you want Haslem. He is now a free agent and you can sign him at any time. It's just because he is in my training camp and he has The desire to sign with us, because I have communicated with their agent. Now, I can explain to his agent that I will not sign Haslem, then he will be yours, I don’t think there will be other **** The team wants him, even though he is indeed a great guy." Leon put down his cigar and said to Riley seriously. To this giant in basketball, Leon is both vigilant and awed.

Riley put down his cocked Erlang's legs, straightened out his smooth and smooth head, did not speak, he was waiting for Leon to negotiate terms.

"My condition is very simple, I also want to sign a player, Mr. Riley wants to win. You know, I have some humble friends in the field of scouts and agents, they often give me some news. It just so happened that I got the news." Leon said, he wanted a fair exchange.

"Who do you want?"

"Alstom." (To be continued.)
