NBA: I am a master dealer

Chapter 160 The offensive and defensive ends tend to be perfect
In his expectation, even if Riley wants to dismantle him, Wade and Bosh's trio, he will be very cautious, at least it will take a long bargaining process.

After all, Bosh is different from Luol Deng.

Bosh is a real top star with an average score of 20+ per game, and he is the kind of all-round super insider who can open up space, play low singles, and attack face-to-face.

Such stars are very rare in the current league.

Otherwise, Riley wouldn't be eager to offer a five-year maximum salary contract in the summer, so one can imagine how powerful Bosh is.

But it was hard for him to believe that the transaction was completed so suddenly, so hastily, and so quickly.

That's right.

A client like him who is mentally prepared cannot help but be surprised.

And just at this time.

Xue Liancheng's cell phone really rang.

He looked down and saw that it wasn't Riley calling, but general manager Randy Fender.

After looking at Uncle Wei, he pressed the answer button.

"Hi! Xue, good evening, are you asleep?" Randy Fender's voice came from the other end of the phone.

Xue Liancheng took a deep breath, "Not yet."

Randy Fender didn't talk nonsense, "That's right, the team just completed another transaction, I think you need to know the situation."

Xue Liancheng: "Speak, I'm listening."

Randy Fender said in a deep voice, "Chris was traded."

Made...

Can you tell me the key points!
Xue Liancheng was cursing from the bottom of his heart, but he still had to cooperate and asked, "Who did you get?"

Randy Fender was surprised, "Aren't you surprised?"

Xue Liancheng was speechless, "As soon as Dewayne came to my room, your call came."

Randy Fender suddenly realized, "I see."

After a pause, he continued, "We sent Chris, Whiteside and Anderson in exchange for Marc Gasol and Serge Ibaka."

The moment I heard the news.

Xue Liancheng was taken aback again.

The Grizzlies dismantled the team at this time, which shocked him inexplicably.

To know.

Although the current Grizzlies have slipped to the sixth place in the West, they are only one and a half games away from the second place in the West. It is not impossible to catch up.

But they took action at this time and dismantled the black and white pair of bears, which really surprised him.

But thinking about it carefully, it seems to be reasonable again.

Although Marc Gasol has gradually shown top-level defensive ability, the offensive end always gives people a feeling of being slightly insufficient. This season, he averaged 16.7 points per game, and the quality of the star has always been a little bit worse.

This caused them to accompany them many times in the playoffs.

In addition, the Golden State Warriors started the crazy mode this season, averaging 110+ points per game, which stunned many Western Conference teams.

Those three-pointers were scored one after another, and sometimes it only took a wave to take away the game.

Such an impact is very huge for the Grizzlies in the west.

Now that they have the opportunity to change to Bosh, who has a significantly higher attack power, they will naturally be excited.

The combination of Randolph and Bosh also looks good. One is overwhelming inside, the other is attacking in the high position. With the help of the outside group, they can indeed have a better imagination.

What surprised Xue Liancheng even more was that Whiteside + Anderson could replace Ibaka?

Ok……

In the Western Conference finals last year, Ibaka seemed to have been given a shot. This season, his shooting percentage has plummeted and his state is not as good as before.

It is understandable to start trading now.

However, it is very surprising to switch to Ibaka with Whiteside + Anderson.

at this time.

Xue Liancheng had already started thinking about Xiao Jiujiu in his heart.

The current Marc Gasol averages 16.7 points, 7.3 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 1.6 blocks per game. The statistics are not outstanding, but he is the starting center for the first round of All-Star ballots in the Western Conference.

Compared with Bosh's data of 21.1 points, 8.1 rebounds and 2.2 assists, it is indeed a bit worse, especially in terms of attack power, there is definitely a huge gap.

Bosh's three-pointers this season are also much better than Marc Gasol's, or they are not at the same level.

At present, although Gasol can also shoot three-pointers, he makes very few shots, basically negligible.

but.

Xiaojia is obviously more comprehensive, and his defensive ability surpasses Bosh's. Not only can he support, but he can also protect the frame. Assist defense and supplementary defense are both top-notch existences.

and so.

If you just exchange orders, you can basically match them, and the two are about the same age. From the perspective of the public, the Heat are a little bit at a loss, but it's not a big problem.

But if you talk about the defensive axis, it's a big loss for the Grizzlies.

Xue Liancheng felt that it was a good deal to exchange for Gasol.

Ok……

How can it be uneconomical?
Bosh is about to lie down on the hospital bed and count the money. The exchange of Bosh for the Grizzlies is equivalent to changing loneliness.

wrong……

This is for the Heat to take over.

It can be called the greatest receiver of this century.

He would like to thank the Grizzlies, and thank the Grizzlies' eighteenth generation ancestors.

For a person with lofty ideals like Xue Liancheng, who was born to snipe my big Zhan Huang, this is not a question of making a small profit.

It's about earning blood.

Even if he changed to a substitute, he still made money.

Now in exchange for Gasol, who is top-notch in frame protection, it is simply a blessing from heaven, and it can be called another big robbery in the new century.

It's a fight with the Lakers who robbed Gasol back then.

It can be said that the Grizzlies sacrificed themselves and gave selflessly. In 08, they dedicated Gasol, and now they dedicated Gasol Jr. to do good things for others to sacrifice themselves.

What a nice guy!

big good man...

He really didn't know how to describe his excitement.

In addition, there is also Ibaka who is equally good at protecting the frame and more mobile than Whiteside.

He even felt that this deal was a talent show.

If they really make a difference in the playoffs, reach the finals, and even win the championship trophy.

This transaction can also be recorded in the annals of history and be taken out for tea by future generations.

The Grizzlies, of course, deserve the most credit.

He even felt that it was necessary to give the Grizzlies an award for helping others.

Good people really have a safe life!

but.

Don't be too happy too soon.

Bosh's pulmonary thrombosis, I don't know if it has formed now, if he didn't pass the physical examination, it would be a joy for nothing, and even made himself sick...

and so.

Champagne can only be opened to celebrate after everything has been settled.

Randy Fender's voice sounded at this moment, "Xue, are you listening?"

Xue Liancheng came back to his senses, "Uh... I see."

Randy Fender: "Actually, you don't have to be so surprised. You have to believe in the team's trust in you. We will build a team around you in the future. Anyone can sacrifice. Please believe this."

He thought Xue Liancheng was shocked, so he immediately took the opportunity to win people's hearts.

Swear to Xue Liancheng to draw a cake of the last century.

In fact.

Xue Liancheng was indeed shocked, and was also knocked unconscious by the big cake.

But this pie is not that pie.

It was the pie that fell from the sky that knocked him out, not the pie that Randy Fender drew for him.

If the team really valued him so much, the management would have called him early in the morning to discuss with him in advance, instead of notifying him after completing the transaction.

and so.

Randy Fender's big pie, he can't eat it at all.

But it didn't stop him from being happy, "Thank you for the team's trust, I will work hard."

After speaking.

He suddenly thought, Randy Fender, isn't he afraid of the conversation being heard by Wade?
Could it be... this guy was telling Wade on purpose?

shit...

No wonder Wade is being manipulated to death, this is always thinking about PUA, Uncle Wei, what a pure beast...

Randy Fender continued, "So Xue, are you satisfied with this deal?"

A proper gesture of asking for credit and reward.

Like a child showing off his grades to his parents.

of course.

It can also be understood as another way to ask Xue Liancheng for affirmation, which is the beginning of shallow PUA.

Xue Liancheng heard a bit of taste, but he was really satisfied, and the Heat's management is indeed worthy of praise.

At least for now, Riley really trades with him as the core of the team, and he recognizes and appreciates it very much.

But it was impossible for him to say that he was satisfied in front of Wade, so he pondered for a moment and replied, "I am a player, and I am only responsible for playing. Trading is a matter for your management, but I still care about your work. Very recognized, and I am also honored to play with such a good player."

Very official answer.

It not only affirmed the achievements of the management, but also did not make Uncle Wei feel uncomfortable.

after all.

Uncle Wei has a very good relationship with Bosh.

Now that Uncle Wei came to look for him, he might be hoping for comfort.

Randy Fender, "Okay, we will continue to work hard, so good night, you go to bed early."

hang up the phone.

Xue Liancheng glanced at Uncle Wei secretly, and found that Uncle Wei's complexion was a little better, he came over and sat down, "Dewayne, just like you said, trading reinforcement is like this, it always happens, nothing is For eternity, except for the championship, we only need to keep the friendship, and the others are actually not important."

Wade twitched the corner of his mouth bitterly, but found that he couldn't laugh anymore.

When he traded Sean Williams before, he used the same words to comfort Xue Liancheng without any psychological burden.

Now it was Xue Liancheng's turn to comfort himself, and he knew the taste of this.

The departure of a good friend made him full of sadness.

Xue Liancheng patted Uncle Wei on the shoulder again, "It's time to move on, imagine the golden championship trophy, maybe you will feel better."

Upon hearing the championship trophy, Wade immediately woke up, raised his eyebrows, slightly surprised, "It seems that you are very confident!"

Xue Liancheng pondered for a moment and said, "I think this lineup is close to perfection. The only shortcoming is Gasol's three-pointers. If he can increase his open three-pointers to 50% before the playoffs , I think we have a great chance."

Wade straightened his face and asked with great interest, "Tell me, where does your confidence come from?"

Xue Liancheng said: "I, you, PJ-Tucker, Ibaka, Gasol Jr., do you think there are any shortcomings in this lineup on both offensive and defensive ends?"

offensive end.

This lineup has huge space. He, PJ Tucker, and Ibaka all have stable three-pointers.

Although Wade's three-pointer is a bit short, no team should dare to completely empty it.

And Gasol's offensive area covers a wide range, he can walk around the basket, he can also shoot from mid-range, and he can shoot with straight arms in the high position.

and so.

There is no need to worry about not having room to attack.

This is the lineup model he likes very much.

There is no problem with his fluency in organizing the offense. It shouldn't be difficult for them to score.

This is the first point.

The second point, the arrival of Gasol Jr. directly sublimated the team's offensive level.

Their offensive tactics before were nothing more than a few.

The offense and defense switch to play fast break, he will advance with the ball, and Wade will be the arrow.

In positional warfare, he will hold the ball to find opportunities, or pick and roll, or pull away, or teammates run, or Wade assaults the basket for two-line cooperation. The tactical quality is very simple. Although it is practical, it needs to test the touch of teammates. It also requires the opponent's defense to make mistakes.

In the positional battle, Wade holds the ball and breaks through to find opportunities, mainly combining breakthroughs and points, and the tactics are more simple.

The last type of positional warfare is handed over to Bosh for singles.

Changing back and forth, that's about it.

and so.

Sometimes teammates feel bad, and they will find it particularly difficult.

Now, the situation is completely different.

Gasol's high-post support has become another starting point for holding the ball, which can make their offensive tactics more diversified.

For example, he and Wade can insert on both sides, making the opponent hard to defend.

For example, he can use screens and run more open threes, which is very important.

Before Wade had the ball, he had an open chance.

now?
That naturally makes it easier to unleash his firepower on open shots.

For example, he and Gasol pick and roll. After the split, he can give the ball to Gasol and go straight to the basket without the ball. This kind of deterrence is also amazing.

The same is true for Wade. After the pick-and-roll with Gasol, he went straight to the basket, even more threatening than him, because Wade is faster and the threat of attacking the frame is extremely huge.

This is the tactical diversity brought about by high-level support.

Gasol's vision and passing are something that Bosh doesn't have, and it's even hard to match.

Besides.

Ibaka's mobility, physical talent, and running and jumping ability are better than Marcus Morris, which makes his passing threat infinitely magnified.

In addition, Ibaka's three-pointers are also excellent, and the high position is also very stable.

and so.

Their arrival gave the team more choices and enriched the team's tactics.

He believes that such a lineup can definitely play a more efficient offense. As long as the tactics are strictly implemented, he even feels that the power can be comparable to that of the Golden State Warriors.

Taking a step back, even if the team is in trouble, there are superstars like Wade who can stand up.

Not to mention.

And his 100% hit skill made up for the last knife, becoming a sharp weapon at the decisive moment.

This is an advantage that the Golden State Warriors do not have.

and so.

He has no worries about problems on the offensive end.

And on the defensive end.

Except for his pancake.

Wade, PJ-Tucker, Ibaka, Gasol Jr. are all first-class defensive champions.

Ibaka's defensive ability, combined with Gasol's frame protection, is enough to weave a daunting no-fly zone inside.

This is the biggest role of the two of them, and it is also what makes Xue Liancheng most excited about this deal.

There are defensive gates like PJ-Tucker on the outside to deal with the opponent's superstars, such as James, Leonard, Durant, elementary school student Curry and others.

And Wade assists the defense from the side.

Not to mention that it can directly block the opponent, but at least it can make them very uncomfortable.

At this time, if they attack the inside line, they will be greeted by the overwhelming presence of Ibaka and Gasol Jr.

It's really a defensive iron net, he even feels that there is no better defensive team than them.

in this way.

On both ends of the offense and defense, they have no flaws, so if they can't take off.

That's what's wrong with him as a leader.

Besides.

They're not bad off the bench either.

Chalmers, Batum, and Marcus Morris lead the team. They are equally good on both offense and defense. They can compete with any team's substitutes. There is no need to worry about rotation issues or lack of lineup depth.

This is where his confidence comes from.

If all goes well and there are no injuries, their goal is the championship.

at this point.

No doubt.

Wade thought for a long time, as if he really couldn't figure out any shortcomings of this lineup, "This... is not bad."

There are all-star Gasol Jr. on the inside, and the titan Ibaka as a supplement. Not to mention ravaging the inside of other teams in the league, but there are still some comparative advantages.

而外线有他和薛连城，一个20+5+5，一个20+10+5，双枪组合足以闪耀全联盟。

Xue Liancheng raised the corners of his mouth and smiled, "If it's okay, how do you let other teams survive?"

Wade finally had a smile.

Bosh replaced Gasol Jr., the biggest improvement is defense.

Coupled with the addition of Ibaka, who is more mobile and more talented, to replace Whiteside, who can only nest in the basket, the defensive combination is better, and the offense has been significantly improved.

and so.

No matter how you look at it, this deal has been strengthened.

just.

Suddenly, Wade thought of something, and instantly withdrew his smile, "But...we lack someone who can lead the team out of the quagmire in adversity."

Xue Liancheng smiled and said, "Isn't it you?"

Wade was stunned on the spot, looking up at Xue Liancheng's eyes, slightly absent-minded.

Since James left, he has gradually realized that his decline, especially knee problems, has prevented him from recreating the style of the Flash.

Now I heard Xue Liancheng was so sure and told him solemnly that he was still the one who dragged the team out of the quagmire.

this moment.

He was even a little dazed.

How long has it been since no one gave him affirmation?

He can't remember.

Now he was affirmed by his little brother Xue Liancheng, which moved him very much, "Xue, thank you for your trust."

Xue Liancheng sent a rainbow fart again, and said with a smile, "You have always been an omnipotent existence in my mind. From now on, the team will have me during regular time, so you can save some energy. When you are needed, you can stand up. Recreate your superstar style."

Wade was stunned for a moment, then realized, "Oh, you kid, this is putting the burden on me."

Xue Liancheng laughed, "Who told you to be Dwyane Wade?"
