NBA backer king

Chapter 482

At this time, the Jazz received a call from Austin.

David Robinson was willing to wait, but Austin insisted on contacting the Jazz. He didn't believe that Popovich could get Duncan at all. Suns general manager Colangelo Jr. was no fool.

To be honest, the Jazz management was pleasantly surprised. If the Admiral is used to replace Campbell, plus black and white, it would be unreasonable for the Jazz not to win the championship.

There is no problem with salary space. David Robinson signed a bird rights contract with the Spurs. According to the current league rules, just like Jordan's deal, only virtual space is counted, which can be accommodated.

That is, the admiral's contract is much bigger than Campbell's. The Jazz's operations will be more difficult. Salt Lake City's economy is average.

After the management researched, they immediately made an agreement with Austin and immediately submitted a trade offer to the Spurs.

Popovich was having a headache where to find Duncan, and when he received the offer, he was really furious.

Now is the critical time to fool Duncan. Use David Robinson to fool Duncan over, and then use Duncan to keep Robinson. If you come to trade Robinson at this time, you are pulling your salary from the bottom of the pot. Aren't you afraid of being blown out of your head by me?

"No! RC, you tell the Jazz they'll never get David Robinson." He growled at assistant RC Buford.

Buford shrugged and hurried out.

Two or 10 minutes later, Popovich received a call from Austin. He only let the other party speak half a sentence, and then hung up the phone directly.

"David, Popovich won't answer my call." Austin said angrily over there.

"Wait a little longer, maybe he can really get Duncan?" David Robinson hesitated.

"Do you think it's possible?" Austin shook his head.

In a hotel in Los Angeles, Banks finally couldn't hold on and got through to Popovich's call.

"Sir, you've made a hundred phone calls, what exactly do you want?" he asked angrily.

"I want to talk to Tim on the phone. Give him your phone and I won't bother you anymore." Popovich said calmly.

"Okay, okay." Banks handed the phone to Duncan irritably.

A look of ecstasy suddenly appeared on Popovich's face over there, when Duncan's voice sounded from the opposite side.

"Hello, Mr. Popovich, hello."

"Hi Tim, I couldn't be happier to hear your voice."

"It feels so good to be valued!"

Duncan felt a strong sense of well-being, which was important to him after being dumped by the Lakers.

It's just that he majored in psychology, so he was very happy inside, but he was still dull and expressionless on the outside.

At this time, Popovich said in a tone of strong self-confidence: "Tim, come to the Spurs, here is David Robinson, and you will definitely dominate the entire league together.

Although the Spurs market is small, we have a strong enough desire to win the championship and are willing to work hard for it. You won't regret it. "

"Spurs?"

Duncan murmured.

……

On the morning of July 10, Wang Tiejun boarded a passenger plane bound for the capital.At noon, the passenger plane arrived at the Capital International Airport.

"Dabao, look, Dad is back, call Dad quickly."

Seeing Wang Tiejun walking out, Yu Feihong waved quickly, teased the son in his arms, took his son's little hand and waved towards Lao Wang.

Seeing a familiar yet unfamiliar adult getting closer, Dabao resisted at first, but under Yu Feihong's teasing, he also began to wave his little hand at Lao Wang, but he was not very enthusiastic and just fooled around.

Da Ya Er Ya and Zhang Lili also came to greet Lao Wang. Behind them was a large group of reporters, and then a large group of fans.

"Old K!"

When the fans saw Lao Wang, they were much more enthusiastic than Dabao, and shouted one after another.

"Oh, Brother Fei, I haven't seen you for almost a year, I miss you so much."

Lao Wang approached quickly with a smile, and hugged Yu Feihong and Dabao together.

"Don't play tricks, it's for everyone." Yu Feihong blushed.

"Ha ha……"

Lao Wang let go of Yu Feihong with a smile, and hugged Dabao again. After teasing him a few times, Dabao reluctantly called out to his father.

Being hugged by Lao Wang, Dabao didn't cry or fuss, he tilted his neck and looked at his father who was holding him, his small eyes revealed innocence.

After Lao Wang and Daya greeted each other, they greeted fans and reporters: "How are you!"

"Old K, did you really go to the Lakers?" Reporters and fans asked loudly.

"Basically there are no accidents. I will play for the Lakers next season." Lao Wang nodded as he walked forward.

"awesome!"

Neither the fans nor the reporters objected. They didn't care which team Wang Tiejun played in, and they would rather have him play in a big city, which would have greater influence.

After taking photos with the fans, Pharaoh was able to leave.

"Dad, Daddy..."

In the car, because of the blood relationship, Dabao and Lao Wang got acquainted very quickly, becoming more and more lively, screaming, climbing up and down on Lao Wang, and Yu Feihong would not do it if he wanted to hug him.

"Tie Jun, I really didn't expect you to go to the Lakers suddenly. When I heard the news yesterday, I couldn't believe it." Zhang Li, who was driving, looked at Lao Wang in the rearview mirror and said with a smile.

"No way, the new boss, Mrs. John, has no money to invest, and now I'm at my peak again, so I don't want to stay with the Suns." Old Wang said.

Zhang Lili said with a smile: "Since the magician died, so have the Lakers. After so many years, Los Angeles fans have long been looking forward to their savior appearing, and you can just save them."

"Ha ha……"

Old Wang heard it interesting, and laughed, but Dabao was so frightened that he pursed his mouth, kicked his calves, and hid in his mother's arms.

"Dameng and the others have become bargaining chips. Now the Lakers should have plenty of space, right? It would be great if they could stay, but the Suns can't do without Duncan and Dameng, and only their trade value can match you." Zhang Lili asked.

"Dream's virtual space is 800 million, and Duncan also reserved a few million space, plus Eddie Jones, the three of them together vacated 300 million space for the Lakers." Old Wang said.

Lao Zhang asked with a smile: "What about the lineup? With such a big space, it's fine to sign two All-Stars."

"Can I sign one? I want to take up a few million space. In addition, the Lakers have no substitute lineup in order to play badly. In addition to the main players, they also need to find a few good substitutes." Old Wang said.

"That's true." Old Zhang nodded.

Lao Wang said: "Now we are short of a power forward, let's see if we can get a good one. I recruited Chris Mullin as a small forward, but his age requires a good substitute for this position. The shooting guard is going to let Kobe play the main force, but his strength is not enough. The point guard is still Nick Van Exel."

Lao Zhang said: "This main lineup is actually just average, let's not count the fourth position. The third position Mullin is still old, and Kobe is not good enough. He can't stand up to the responsibility of the outside core. Van Exel is called Fan Crazy. As the successor of the Magician's No. [-] position, he is not welcomed by Lakers fans."

"Why?" asked the old king.

Lao Zhang explained: "As a point guard, he still has some strength. Over the past few seasons, he has averaged more than ten points per game and contributed steadily. His assist ability is also good, averaging six or seven times per game, but his offensive efficiency is mediocre, with only [-]% of his shots.

If this kind of strength is in an ordinary team, it must be very popular, but it is the Lakers. Lakers fans are used to watching Magic Johnson's performances, so they don't accept Fan Crazy. What they want is not an ordinary Fan Crazy, but a savior like a Magician. "

"That's it?" Old Wang shook his head.

"No way, who made the Lakers' No. [-] position be Magician. If Magician doesn't get sick, Jordan's trapeze era may be affected." Lao Zhang laughed.

Speaking of this, he said again: "And Crazy Fan doesn't seem to be suitable for you."

"Why is that?" asked the old man.

Lao Zhang said: "His style of play is very distinctive, and he has a wide range of shots. After halftime, his first choice is not to organize an attack, but to shoot. He shoots as soon as he wants to, and he is out of control at all. This is why he is called a lunatic."

"I'm X, how can that be?" Old Wang frowned.

Thinking about the games against the Lakers in the past few seasons, Van Exel seems to be really like this.

Zhang Lili continued: "And according to reports from the Los Angeles media, he has ideas about the leadership position of the team. If you plan to let Kobe be the outside core in the future, it is impossible for him to accept Kobe. There will definitely be conflicts between the two, and they will definitely play their own way on the court."

"Then I'm going to talk to management."

Lao Wang said: "Let's not talk about Kobe's outside core position, it depends on his progress.

If Nick Van Exel can't perform the organizational function of a point guard and prioritizes his own shots, then I might as well find another shooting guard to come in? "

Lao Zhang joked: "Tie Jun, I think you really don't need a point guard. It's better to find two shooting guards who can pass, shoot and rush. Otherwise, why would Kidd want to leave?"

"Ha ha……"

Old Wang laughed.

Around him, some of the point guard's organizational functions are indeed squeezed by him, but this does not mean that point guards are not needed, because point guards and shooting guards are different. Putting two shooting guards on the court will reduce the team's offensive rationality.

The shooting guard is mainly offensive and scoring. This position is even the one with the lowest shooting percentage among the five positions. He doesn't need to pay too much attention to offensive efficiency, as long as he can score points.

If there are two shooting guards on the field, both of whom focus on their own offensive scoring, then the offensive firepower of the outside line will definitely be improved, but the efficiency will definitely be reduced, thereby reducing the overall offensive efficiency.Of course, if the hand feels overwhelming, it can also kill the opponent in a wave.

And although he can perform some organizational functions, it is only a part after all, and he still needs a point guard.

He only distributes the ball after attracting double-teams in the low post, but he does not occupy the ball. The time for holding the ball is very short. In the Suns, it is Kidd and Lightning who really occupy the ball.

The so-called right to the ball is not the right to shoot. Whoever holds the ball for a long time means whoever controls the ball.

The reason why Kidd is dissatisfied is not that he does not have the ball, but that his tactical status is not so important, he cannot decide what tactics to play, and cannot be the brain of the team.

He himself didn't want to occupy such an important tactical position, and he also hoped to have a capable helper on the outside, but after the Lightning's ball-handling offensive ability degraded, no one on the Suns could stand up to take on the heavy responsibility of the outside core.

While chatting, the car kept passing through the capital.

Lao Wang also looked at the capital, which he hadn't seen for eight or nine months, and there were some changes. Roads and houses were being built, and the city seemed a bit busy.

"Look, the [-]th Ring Road on our side is about to be repaired, and it's about to open to traffic. Last year when you left, it was a lot worse, and it was pretty fast." Yu Feihong said, pointing to the construction site outside.

"Sihuan, I heard that it has been repaired for more than ten years. When will it be fully open to traffic?" Old Wang said.

Zhang Lili smiled and said: "Before the Asian Games in the capital in 90, a part of the Fourth Ring road was opened to traffic. I think it will be opened soon, and it will be fully opened to traffic in a few years."

Close to Fengshen Street, it obviously started to be lively, with a lot of people.

This section was originally an urban-rural fringe area. Under the influence of Fengshen Street in the past two years, the surrounding blocks have also developed rapidly. It has shed the rural atmosphere of the urban-rural fringe area and has become one of the boutique commercial blocks in the capital city. People in the city want to buy something good. This is one of the best choices, so it is very lively.

"Dad, Mom, I'm back."

There were still more than [-] meters away from the door of the house. When he saw his parents standing at the door, he hurriedly shouted.

"Eh."

The cheerful Wang Aiguo nodded quickly.

"Son, come on, come on, give me the big treasure, you go in and eat dumplings." Sister Liu took the big treasure over with a smile, and pushed Wang Tiejun into the door.

"Okay, Dad, how many cups shall we drink?" Wang Tiejun smiled.

"Drink a few cups." Wang Aiguo nodded and smiled.

Apart from his father drinking a few glasses of wine and eating a few plates of dumplings, Bai Changsheng happened to arrive, so Lao Wang carried his son and Bai Changsheng to the back of the villa.

There is already a huge construction site behind, the huge basketball stadium in the distance has begun to take shape, and the hotel has also built nearly ten floors.

Bai Changsheng introduced: "Boss, the basketball hall will be renovated soon, and it will be completed by the end of the Gregorian calendar. The hotel will be half a year late, and it should be completed on schedule in July next year."

"Keep an eye on it. The quality of the project must be done well. Let me tell you, Mr. Bai, if something goes wrong, you can't escape the responsibility." Old Wang said seriously.

"Don't worry, Boss, I follow Party B every day. From materials to construction, I don't dare to be sloppy at all. I often make surprise inspections." Bai Changsheng promised quickly.

He is very clear that this is not a public project, but an old K's private project. If there is a mistake, he will definitely not be able to escape. Old K will not let him go. He usually works with 120 points of energy.

In the afternoon, Liu Yumin from the basketball department came to his door. He had nothing else to do. There was no important international competition this year, so he just came to see Wang Tiejun and talk about the Olympics.

"Tiejun, the above has already passed the approval. Next year, the capital will formally bid for the second Olympic Games, the 08 Olympic Games."

"I applied for the 98 Olympic Games in 08, and there are still ten years left. I was 35 years old at that time."

Old Wang felt a little regretful, and he couldn't guarantee what kind of state he would be in by that time.

……

"Hello, Mrs. John, I'm Paul Allen, the owner of the Blazers."

On July [-]th, in Phoenix, the despondent Mrs. John suddenly received a call from Paul Allen, the owner of the Blazers.

This is Microsoft's second largest shareholder. Is there anything good to do with her?I also have no business relationship with Allen, and I don't know each other. If it's about the team, I should go to Colangelo and his son, and she doesn't care about the team.

"Mr. Allen, I don't know what you want from me?" She asked quickly.

"That's it, Mrs. John, the Suns have reached an agreement with the Lakers on the old K's deal, and got the signing rights of Dameng and Tim Duncan. Then I have a very good deal. I wonder if you want it?" Paul Allen said on the opposite side.

"You want Dameng and Duncan?"

Mrs. John immediately understood the meaning of the other party. Such an important transaction, without her consent, little Colangelo would not dare to make a decision.

"Yes, Mrs. John, you are very shrewd." Paul Allen laughed.

Mrs. John smiled wryly. If I were smart, I wouldn't make such a big mistake now.

She calmed down and asked, "Then Mr. Allen, one is a super center, and the other is a super No. [-] pick that made half of the league fail. What can I get?"

Paul Allen said: "Mrs. John, I have a message from Wall Street that will be helpful to your current situation."

"Really?" Mrs. John was moved.

"Mrs. John, if you have other non-dollar assets in Asia, please deal with them immediately." Paul Allen said seriously.

"what?"

Mrs. John's heart skipped a beat. Will the financial turmoil in Thailand affect the whole of Asia?She and her family do have business in Japan, and if there is a problem with this business, it will be over.

"Mrs. John, what do you think of this news?" Paul Allen said.

"Thank you very much, Mr. Allen, I will inform the management." Mrs. John said quickly.

"Thank you, Mrs. John, the next transaction will be handed over to the management." Paul Allen said with satisfaction.

After finishing the phone call, he regretted that the sports league does not allow one person to own two teams at the same time, otherwise he would definitely buy the Suns from Mrs. Keryl John, so that he would be able to own Old K.

But now there is only one piece of news to settle Mrs. John, and I am very happy to get the signing rights of Dameng and Tim Duncan.

But he believed that the news was worth it to Mrs. John, and he didn't want to take advantage of a woman.

The year before last, the Blazers traded the glider to the Suns. The Suns completed the lineup and won the championship. This time, he got Dameng and Duncan from the Suns, which can be regarded as a relationship.
