This Forward is Not Serious

, The fastest update to the latest chapter of this striker's non-decent!

This is a luxurious dining table, long like a royal dining table in the Middle Ages in Europe.

In the middle of the table, a variety of delicacies are placed.

Broiled phoenix cooking dragon, eight precious jade food;

Aromatic, beautiful and delicious.

There were even a lot of Chinese food in there, right in front of Lin Ying.

Kroenke, have a heart.

Anthony was sitting opposite Lin Ying.

Obviously, the meaning of this meal is that Kroenke wants to let the two of them settle their suspicions.

After drinking with Iverson before, although there were a few fragments after waking up, Lin Ying still knew some things.

For example, Iverson's expectations for the Nuggets to win the championship.

So he actually did not resist reconciling with Anthony.

Husband and wife still need to run in, let alone the teammates of the business alliance.

If there is a contradiction, then many champions in NBA history will have to change.

And in terms of benefits, if he can win a championship, his personal influence will be greatly improved.

So the key lies in Anthony.

Anthony's condition seems to be better than before, and his previous feelings are lost even if he meets his eyes.

It seems that what Walkendian said earlier was true.

A few people quickly started to eat.

Kroenke didn't mention basketball. He just talked to them about food and some interesting experiences in Europe.

It feels like asking them to have a meal.

But at the end of the talk, he mentioned the acquisition of Arsenal.

Originally this kind of thing was confidential, but it was done, and he seemed to have no fear.

"They want me to be a shareholder, and their intention is to restrict the Russians."

As Kroenke spoke, they also knew roughly how Kroenke did it.

Originally, Arsenal’s second largest shareholder was Usmanov, a wealthy Russian businessman, who had always wanted to become Arsenal’s largest shareholder and eventually took full control.

In order to fight Usmanov, Kroenke started his acquisition journey under the recommendation of a friend.

He bought a lot of shares, but very cleverly just a little less than the Russians.

Then the Russians are always the number one enemy of other shareholders, and he also took advantage of this to form a "Kroenke Union."

When they are mature, they will eat other people's shares.

Soon, he succeeded in overtaking Usmanov as the largest shareholder, and quickly increased his shareholding to 60%.

It was too late for the others to react.

Because they found that even with Usmanov's shares, they couldn't beat Kroenke.

According to the current form of development, it is only a matter of time before Kroenke becomes the sole shareholder.

Even if Arsenal fans are unwilling to accept that the Premier League team is completely controlled by foreigners, the movement of capital has made it irreversible.

"Melo has been in Denver for many years, but last season was the first time he reached the second round of the playoffs, and that was just Lin's rookie season. Normal people can see how good your combination is."

After talking about his European experience, Kroenke began to introduce the topic.

"So why only in the second year, there will be problems between you? Haven't you thought about it, maybe someone is getting in the way, and you don't want to see the Nuggets rise so fast?"

And his next words also explain why he wants to use Arsenal as an example.

This is an analogy, how he disintegrated other Arsenal shareholders, naturally opponents may disintegrate the Nuggets like that.

Lin Ying was stunned for a moment.

Anthony was also thoughtful.

"Have you ever thought about what the problem is between you?

Data problem? The Nuggets can score at least 100 points in a game. Isn’t that not enough for the two of you?

Status issue? Lin never said he wanted to be the Nuggets boss, right?

The style of play? I don't know where there is a conflict between a person who likes to pass and a person who likes to score.

So, don't you really think that someone deliberately said something in your ears, and then caused problems between you? "

Anthony was thinking, as if remembering whether there was such a person.

In the end, he actually...

Nodding!

Uh, wouldn’t it be true?

Lin Ying felt a little weird.

But soon, he came around the corner.

Kroenke's words selectively avoided the fact that Iverson was still there before.

If it's just him and Anthony, it really shouldn't be a problem as he said.

And people have a kind of subconsciousness.

Although I don't know what Walkendian did, he has indeed convinced Anthony.

Now that Kroenke said this again, Anthony would easily think about this subconsciously.

For example, someone around you may say: Merlot, I think it might be good for you to run off the ball.

Now what Anthony imagined becomes: Merlot, you have to run without the ball now!

Memory is not a phonograph, especially for people like Anthony who receive a lot of information every day, remembering every detail is impossible.

"So it's actually someone behind the scenes, right? I know Jerry Buss, that's a trick he would use."

Kroenke continued.

Anthony nodded vigorously, and he also remembered that someone around him had contact with the Lakers.

The two chatted a few more words, and the more Anthony thought about it, the more right he was, and his emotions had risen.

"Mr. Kroenke, Lin and I have no problem before, we will win the championship!"

In the end, Anthony was full of pride.

"If there is that day, I will erect a statue for you!"

Kroenke looked at Anthony, his expression also looked very excited.

The Nuggets have not won a championship so far, and they haven't even made the finals. This is justified and convincing.

Anthony was excited.

The same as Durant's reaction.

Standing statues are an invaluable honor for players!

Lin Ying turned her head and glanced at Kroenke at this time, with some fear in her eyes.

This wave of contradictions shifted, throwing the pot, and the backhand statue, all in one go.

And don't tell me, he was a little bit convinced after listening.

In fact, the source of the so-called contradiction is Anthony.

Get Anthony, and the Nuggets will be able to play.

This meal is more like a reassurance for Anthony.

After eating, Kroenke left Lin Ying alone, saying that he was going to China in a few days and wanted to consult with him.

Consultation is a real consultation, but it is not the key to Lin Ying's retention.

Kroenke had something to talk to Lin Ying in private.

"Lin, I think you are as important as Merlot."

Kroenke looked sincere.

"I've seen your performance in the Olympics. You have the talent not to lose to Melo, and you have the opportunity to grow into a team core.

This is why I would rather send away AI and keep you. I believe you and Melo can bring Denver the first championship in team history. "

...

After leaving Kroenke's manor, Lin Ying was thoughtful.

He believed only half of what Kroenke said privately.

Judging from Kroenke's performance when eating, those words are based on their personalities to appease.

talent?

If the Chinese market behind him is also included, that can indeed be said.

Of course, this is essentially no problem.

The key to the problem is what Anthony will do in the next game.

And he already had a decision in his heart.

If Billups came and everyone worked well together, then he would concentrate on competing for the championship.

But if Anthony is still the original Anthony, or this season because Anthony cannot win the championship.

Then, he will take the initiative to apply for a deal at the end of the season.

The rookie watched for three years, and the third year was the most critical year for him.

...

Soon after the completion of the two large transactions, the inside story and details of the transaction were exposed by the media.

Let me talk about the sun and the Cavaliers deal first.

The Suns have long had the idea of ​​trading Bell and Dior, and almost reached a deal with the Bobcats.

Just because of Lin Ying's trading rumors, they kept on dragging Lin Ying intentionally.

After the Nuggets finally gave a clear reply that they would not trade Lin Ying, the deal fell through, and they finally sent O'Neal to Cleveland.

So it turns out that history will not change direction for no reason. It is Lin Ying who is pushing history in another direction.

Let's talk about the Pistons and Nuggets.

This season the Pistons' record has fallen sharply. The management put the remaining Billups and Prince of the Five Tigers on the shelves, hoping to trade for an All-Star player when they are still worthwhile.

Prior to this, the Rockets have been in the leading position.

Billups + Prince = McGrady, this is the main framework that has been discussed.

It's a pity that a certain general manager named Darrell Mosaic, who claims to be shrewd but really stubborn, refused.

It was also after the Rockets refused that the Pistons found the Nuggets.

Two days later, Billups arrived in Denver.

When he appeared in the locker room, the Nuggets players looked a little excited.

The championship plus the MVP halo, this background is very tempting for the current Nuggets players.

Iverson’s previous wardrobe was next to Lin Ying, and Billups came and used his.

Lin Ying looked at Billups and felt like Yao Ming saw McGrady.

Although I know that this transaction has nothing to do with Billups, as a bargaining chip Iverson was traded away, I always feel that he is not so pleasing to the eye.

But soon, his feeling slowly disappeared.

Because of Billups, it's really special.

How to put it, there is a saying that some people are born leaders.

Billups is such a person.

Self-behaved, good at communication, full of wisdom, and rich experience.

As long as you don't get along with him for a while, you will feel that he can help you succeed.

This feeling is strange, but it should be there.

Several waves of teammates Billups played in history.

At first it was the Pistons Five Tigers, all of them are ruthless characters, but the head is like "Roaring Heavenly Lord", and they are willing to listen to Billups;

Then came the Nuggets gang, I don’t listen to Carmelo Anthony, and I also follow Lupus’ words;

Then came the Clippers. At that time, Billups was not at the peak, but Paul, who was born to be strong, discussed everything with Billups.

A team is accidental, and every team is like this, it shows that this characteristic is real.

Even Lin Ying felt that she could learn a lot from Billups.

And his understanding will be deeper.

Because he knew that Billups was considered a parallel trade show before going to the Pistons.

In other words, Billups has slowly grown into this quality.

How to grow is where he can learn.

Along the way, especially after becoming a teammate with Durant, he understood one thing: For a player to become a true leader, strength alone is not enough.

After finishing the closet, Billups went over to communicate with Anthony for a while.

Not knowing what was talking, Anthony quickly laughed.

This is really, absolutely.

Lin Ying is really looking forward to this year's playoffs.

The Nuggets made the Western Conference Finals without him. Now with him, can they win the championship?

The answer to this question will take time.

Fortunately, they will soon find out the bottom line.

Because the Nuggets' opponent in the first game after the All-Star Game is the Celtics.

If you can beat the defending champion, it shows that the Nuggets have a play.

After a while, Carl also came to the locker room.

He first asked Billups about his impression of the Nuggets.

Billups directly gave a standard answer:

"I feel the breath of champions that I have been missing for a long time here."

Carl laughed on the spot.

If you can speak, you should speak more!

And Billups's next remark showed that he was not talking nonsense.

He gave some conditions needed to win the championship:

1. A superstar who can take over the game at a critical moment: Anthony;

2. The overall defensive strength of the team is excellent: the Nuggets now have Lin Ying and Nene, and now they have Billups and Duntai Jones/Tony Allen, which is not much worse than the original Pistons;

3. Unity within the team: The Nuggets have a strong temperament, but they have been very united last season. The specific manifestation is...every fight is a group of people!

It was the contradiction between Lin Ying and Anthony before, and now it is resolved.

After that, everyone is more convinced than Lupus.

Including Karl nodded frequently.

This is the legendary championship experience!

Lin Ying also basically agrees, and the only doubt is the same as before, what will Anthony do in the next game.

This question should have an answer to the Celtics next.

On February 21, the trading deadline officially arrived.

The big deal has ended, but there are still some small deals.

The Rockets’ three-way trade sent Alstom to the Magic in exchange for Kyle Lowry of the Grizzlies;

The Bulls sent Nocioni, Gooden, and Cedric Simmons in exchange for Brad Miller and John Salmons from the Kings;

...

Of course, there are also drama plots that the NBA will appear from time to time.

The Hornets hit second in the Western Conference last season, amazing everyone, but the new season performance is not satisfactory.

Especially the main center Chandler missed many games because of an ankle injury, and his state was fluctuating.

The management tried their best to reach a deal with the Thunder and sent Chandler in exchange for Wilcox.

Originally, the transaction was successful, but Chandler was returned because of an ankle injury!

But this is not the drama of the crime, the most dramatic is that everyone on the Hornets expressed the failure of the trade...

Excited emotions!

Last season, a group of people reached second place in the Western Conference without being optimistic. The experience is very similar to Lin Ying's experience at the University of Texas.

They have long established deep feelings in this experience.

Therefore, the management was unwilling to trade Chandler, but no one dared to speak up. The result was returned. Naturally, they liked it.

In the end, the embarrassment is the Hornets management.

Or to be more precise, it should be General Manager Powell~www.readwn.com~ when his IQ was online, and he refused to choose Lin Ying for himself. As a result, a wave of dolls were cut off.

Now that the deal that has been negotiated so hard has been returned, I can only watch Chandler leave for nothing after the expiration of the contract.

It's almost every time.

Just 100 million points.

Then, this wave became a post-dinner talk for fans and players.

On the plane to Boston, Lin Ying was also talking about this with Abrams.

And when it comes to the Hornets, he thinks of Paul and the small cannons of the big guys' backpacks he saw during the Beijing Olympics.

Then thinking of the small artillery, he remembered that the Nuggets' opponents in the first round in history this year were the Hornets, and then the well-known 58 stalks were born.

Now that Billups is in place, will 58 be far behind?
