NBA: Booker’s template, female stars are all power banks
Chapter 23 The storm is surging and the season comes to an end
"If we can get Ye Huan in this year's draft, we won't be afraid of the Golden State Warriors at all!"
Cleveland, USA
In the Cavaliers general manager's office, James seriously suggested to the team's general manager: "I went to watch Ye Huan's game live in March. There is no doubt that he is the best rookie this year."
"I know."
The Cavaliers general manager nodded and said with some helplessness: "But we only have the 8th overall pick this year, so it will be difficult for us to select him."
"Besides, after a series of transactions this season, we no longer have the corresponding resources to acquire him through trade."
This is where things stand with the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Last offseason, Irving caught the Cavaliers management off guard by requesting a trade.
In the end, he exchanged clubs with Thomas Jr., but he was just selected into the second team of the strongest 175 on earth. He immediately chose to have hip surgery after landing in Cleveland.
This also leaves the role that should have belonged to Thomas Jr. taking over from Irving and carrying the team's offensive banner vacant again.
Although the management signed two veterans, Wade and Rose, with minimum salaries, the team's lineup on paper looks strong.
But the sluggish start to the regular season immediately shattered the Cavaliers' illusions.
The team's center Tristan Thompson's condition declined, and Tyronn Lue could only put him on the bench. This also caused the Cavaliers, who only had Love inside, to quickly get into trouble on the defensive end.
In the days when Thomas is absent, the team can only rely on veteran Calderon to contribute in the open position.
Rose, the new summer aid, only played 16 games due to injury, and Wade was never able to integrate into the team.
Tyronn Lue is counting on Crowder and Jeff Green to support the forward defensive system, but these two people obviously do not have the corresponding abilities.
It is precisely because of this that the Cavaliers' defensive efficiency once reached the bottom of the league.
With Thomas returning from injury, the team has once again fallen into new problems.
The hip injury made him stand out from the crowd, averaging 14.7 points, 4.5 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game, and he was no longer qualified to play the role of the team's second leader.
If the Cavaliers want to win another championship, they must make changes.
Before the trade deadline, the team management began to make frequent moves. They first packaged Foley and Thomas Jr. from the Lakers in exchange for Clarkson and Nance Jr., and then sent away Crowder, Rose, and Shumpert to acquire George W. Er and Hood.
In the end, they chose to let Wade return home in exchange for a second-round pick.
Nearly half of the team's personnel have been overhauled, paving the way for James to lead to the playoffs.
but.....
If it weren't for James's outstanding performance like a god descending from the earth, they might have been eliminated early.
In other words, the current Cavaliers' overall lineup is completely stiff.
They don't have any room to operate, and they must be fully prepared to prevent James from leaving.
Therefore, even if James takes the initiative to say that he will stay after taking Ye Huan, the team's top management will think twice.
"We could use next year's draft pick to try and trade him."
James is still making a last-ditch effort, trying to convince the management to take Ye Huan away.
After all, he really wants to bring another championship trophy to his hometown team.
"LeBron, with Ye Huan, can we really defeat the Warriors?"
The general manager of the team still chose to show off: "We all admit that you are very strong and you are a historical superstar, but in the past few years we have been suppressed by the Golden State Warriors. For example, our team has fallen behind by a score of 0:2. .”
"Ye Huan is just a rookie, and it takes time for him to grow."
"Even if we get him through a trade, I still don't think we can win another championship in recent years."
Obviously, the team believes in James' ability to lead the team, but they do not believe in Ye Huan.
It is absolutely impossible for him to bet the future of the Cavaliers on a rookie from the Dragon Kingdom.
Even though Ye Huan has already proven himself in the NCAA.
James was silent
At the same time, he was also extremely disappointed with this Cleveland Cavaliers.
At the same time, teams holding lottery picks are already starting to make moves.
The first to take action was the Charlotte Hornets, who held the No. 11 pick.
Michael Jordan directly announced that the team is very optimistic about Alexander from the University of Kentucky and Trae Young from the University of Oklahoma.
If either of them ended up falling, they would take it without hesitation.
Of course, this is just smoke and mirrors for Michael Jordan.
Give wrong information to the outside world and distract people's attention.
After learning that the Suns, who had the No. 3 pick, and the Kings, who had the No. 11 pick, were not interested in Ye Huan, Michael Jordan secretly contacted the Hawks, who had the No. pick, and wanted to make a deal between the No. and No. picks.
The God of Basketball even said that as long as the Hawks choose to trade, all Charlotte Bobcats players can be used for trade.
But the Hawks' response was simple: they looked down on all the Charlotte Bobcats players!
After all, Bobcats really suck.
They simply don't have a player who can be used as a high-quality bargaining chip.
The only one, Kemba Walker, can't even catch the eyes of the Hawks management.
They are more willing to put the team's future on Trae Young of the University of Oklahoma than Kemba Walker.
Also calling the Hawks management was the Los Angeles Clippers.
After secretly inspecting Ye Huan's performance, Jerry West had already made up his mind to win Ye Huan.
Compared with the Hornets, the Clippers' chips are better.
Jerry West proposed: Take the 12th + 13th picks and the team's star player Blake Griffin as the main body, and exchange them for this season's No. pick.
After hearing about the Clippers' generous double-teaming, although the Hawks management was very excited, they still controlled it.
Their reply to the Clippers was: If they can get Trae Young in the draft through a third party, they will agree to this transaction.
After hanging up the phone, Jerry West quickly set his sights on the Orlando Magic with the sixth overall pick.
While each team is focusing on the draft, the 17-18 season finals are coming to an end.
November 6th, US time
Game 4 of the NBA Finals continues in Cleveland.
In this campaign, the Warriors defeated the Cavaliers 108:85 on the road, completing a 4-0 sweep and winning the 2018 NBA championship in one fell swoop.
In this game, the Cavaliers seemed to lack fighting spirit and fell behind by a large margin from the beginning. Although the team counterattacked in the second quarter, the Warriors still led the Cavaliers 61:52 at halftime.
With 4 minutes and 03 seconds left before the end of the game, James was substituted, high-fived his teammates and opponents, and accepted the cheers of the fans.
At the end of the game, the Warriors won three championships in four years, marking the beginning of a dynasty.
Durant defeated Curry with 7:4 votes to win the 2018 Finals MVP.
