NBA: I am a master dealer

Chapter 275 Crazy trading rumors!

With the second round of negotiations on hold, it seems Randy Fender is no longer in a hurry.

Maybe the Heat management feels that there is still a second year of the contract and a lot of time.

And the draft is getting closer.

At this time, a bombshell suddenly appeared. Wo Shen broke the news on Twitter: According to reliable information, Xue Liancheng has clearly refused to renew his contract.

As soon as this news came out, there was a huge splash in the alliance.

Xinke's double MVP and FMVP are actually showing signs of leaving the nest. Isn't this a shocking news?
Everyone knows that as the Heat win the championship, Miami will 100% keep Xue Liancheng. Xue Liancheng is definitely not for sale to the Heat. This is almost the consensus of the league.

Even though there was a turmoil in the middle of the season and Xue Liancheng was dissatisfied with the contract extension, everyone believed that Miami would not give other teams any chance.

of course.

This is also true.

Even the Heat management insists on keeping Xue Liancheng.

only……

This must be retained, it depends on how to retain it, there is still a lot of room for maneuver.

But at this time, such news broke out, and the news released by Wo Shen, who is known for his accurate revelations, was simply shocking and inexplicable.

If other reporters break the news, so be it.

But this is Wo Shen!

Known as NBA Bai Xiaosheng, he can get information about everything in advance. Basically, as long as the news he releases, it is [-]% true.

This caused such a big sensation.

at the same time.

Many teams in the league immediately called Randy Fender's office to inquire about Xue Liancheng's offer.

Randy Fender took one after another.

at last.

After talking to Lakers general manager Kupchak on the phone, he simply called Xue Liancheng directly.

result……

No one heard.

After thinking for a moment, he called Zhuang Yan again.

As soon as the call was connected, he asked aggressively, "Ms. Zhuang, I want to ask, what is this?"

Zhuang Yan: "What do you mean?"

Randy Fender: "What's going on with Wojnarowski's Twitter revelations?"

Zhuang Yan: "Huh... you actually came to question me about a media reporter's nonsense?"

Randy Fender asked sternly: "Do you dare to say that you didn't leak the news?"

Negotiations between the two parties failed, and Wo Shen immediately broke the news.

There were only three people present at the time. He told Riley the general situation afterwards, but how could Riley leak it to the outside world?

And there are big problems with this source.

They just failed to negotiate with Xue Liancheng, but what information did Wo Shen reveal?
It was Xue Liancheng who refused to renew the contract!
These are two completely different things.

And the only person who could release such news, he thought about it, was Xue Liancheng himself.

The purpose is obvious.

It is to force their management team to commit the crime and offer a maximum salary contract as soon as possible.

This can touch his reverse scale.

The players forced him in this way. What is the difference between this and committing a crime?
If you can force him to renew his contract today, then you can force him to trade so and so tomorrow, or acquire so and so. If he, the general manager, can do this, can he still do it?

So does he still have a purpose as a general manager?
That's why he's angry.

Zhuang Yan sneered again and again: "Okay, that's the news I released, what do you think?"

Randy Fender: "We can discuss everything in private in private. What good will it do to you? You have to know that you are making it difficult for Xue..."

Zhuang Yan: "What's the benefit? That's a good question. Let me put it bluntly. I don't want Xue to stay in Miami."

Randy Fender almost jumped up, "You...you...what are you talking about?"

This was a bolt from the blue, like a bolt of lightning falling on his head.

Don’t want Xue Liancheng to stay in Miami?
This... this... this is forced into the palace!
He couldn't believe it and suspected that there was something wrong with his ears.

Zhuang Yan: "I'll say it again, I just don't want Xue to stay in Miami."

After confirming the answer, Randy Fender's face turned completely ferocious, "Is this what you meant? Or is it what Xue Liancheng meant?"

This time.

He did not refer to Xue Liancheng as Xue affectionately, but called him by his full name.

If he was just angry just now, now he is exploding.

Don’t want to stay in Miami?

This is simply killing them!
Zhuang Yan: "This is what I mean."

Randy Fender took a deep breath, his heart dropped as he raised his voice, "Let Xue Lai answer the phone."

Zhuang Yan: "He has gone to Los Angeles for in-depth training. His mobile phone will not be turned on. All his problems will be entrusted to me to handle."

How could Randy Fender want to believe, "You are just his agent. This is not a child's play. I hope to have a direct dialogue with Xue."

Naturally, he didn't believe that Xue Liancheng was not here.

He even suspected that Xue Liancheng was listening nearby.

of course.

He didn't even believe that this was not what Xue Liancheng meant.

Zhuang Yan: "It's not necessary. I'm officially notifying you now that Xue will leave when his contract expires next season."

Randy Fender is finally a person who is used to big storms: "When Xue returns to the team, I will talk to him personally."

Zhuang Yan didn't force it, "Let's wait until he returns to the team."

The conversation ends here.

After hanging up the phone, Randy Fender was anxious, pacing back and forth for a long time, and finally went out quickly and went straight to Riley's office.

Riley left Xue Liancheng's contract extension to him to handle. As a result, he made such a big mistake and he had to give an explanation to Riley.

Arrive in front of Riley's office.

He took a deep breath and then gently knocked on the door.

A majestic voice came from inside, "Come in!"

Randy Fender opened the door and came in, subconsciously looking at Riley.

At this time, Riley was browsing the files, and when he saw Randy Fender, his face suddenly changed.

Randy Fender lowered his head angrily, "President."

Riley stopped what he was doing and his voice turned cold, "What's wrong with you?"

There is no doubt that he was asking about Xue Liancheng's contract renewal.

Now the team is preparing for next season, and renewing Xue Liancheng's contract is really the top priority.

result.

However, Wo Shen broke such news, which messed up a certain matter.

How could he not be angry?
Randy quickly told the whole story without hiding anything.

After listening.

Riley was silent for a long time, frowning: "His agent really said that?"

Randy Fender, "Yeah, that's what she told me."

Riley suddenly laughed: "Hey, it seems Xue is still angry about the mid-season negotiation!"

Randy Fender was stunned for a moment, "No way? Is there anything to be angry about? Isn't it just a normal negotiation?"

Riley didn't answer and waved his hand, "In this way, you draft the contract, send it to Xue's apartment in person, and then solemnly tell him that the team is indispensable for him."

Obviously.

As a human being who has been around for many years, Riley already knows everything.

pity.

The divine fortune teller was wrong in the end.

Because Xue Liancheng really went to Los Angeles and was not in Miami at all.

Xue Liancheng didn't just want respect, he really made up his mind to leave.

His cell phone was also turned off, and he was undergoing special training in seclusion, not wanting anyone to disturb him.

As for how to operate and leave, it is naturally left to Zhuang Yan to handle.

When Randy Fender came to Xue Liancheng's apartment with the contract, he was dumbfounded.

Seeing that Zhuang Yan was alone, he subconsciously asked, "Where is Xue?"

Zhuang Yan: "I told you, he went to Los Angeles."

Randy Fender: "Then why didn't he tell the team?"

Zhuang Yan sneered: "Where is he going and he has to report to you?"

Randy Fender suddenly realized that he had made a mistake and twitched his lips in embarrassment, "I mean, the team can provide him with the best training venue, the best training partner, and the best training plan." Zhuang Yan : "Thank you for your kindness, Xue has his own plan."

Randy Findela returned to the topic, "This is the contract provided by the team to Xue. If you look at it, our sincerity is absolutely full. The team needs him, and he also needs Miami, right?"

Zhuang Yan didn't answer the call, "Maybe I didn't express it clearly enough on the phone. Now let me say it again. I don't want Xue to stay in Miami. I hope Xue goes to a big city, where he can get better exposure. Embrace a better life.”

Randy Fender's eyelids twitched wildly, "That's just what you meant."

of course.

This is actually self-deception.

Without Xue Liancheng's instructions, how could the agent in front of him be so tough?

You don't have to think hard to figure out what's going on.

But this cannot be broken down.

Zhuang Yan did not answer, but said calmly: "I hope you will think carefully and don't end up losing both your people and money. Xue Liancheng will be gone at the end of the term, and you will get nothing."

Randy Fender suddenly laughed, "You mean, you want us to trade Xue away?"

Zhuang Yan: "Yes, the sooner the better."

Randy Fender: "Do you think it's possible?"

Zhuang Yan: "Nothing is impossible. As long as the chips are enough, everything can be traded, including people."

Randy Fender: "Ms. Zhuang, maybe you don't quite understand what I mean. I mean, Xue Liancheng is not for sale to the Miami Heat. We will never choose to trade him, never. Please tell Xue this." , the team must have him.”

Zhuang Yan laughed loudly, very loudly, and very wildly.

Randy Fender frowned, "Why are you laughing?"

Zhuang Yan: "If you really thought that way, you wouldn't offer a five-year, 5 yuan contract. If you really thought that way, you wouldn't call the man who led the team to win the championship to your office to negotiate the contract. So, Since you don’t take him seriously, why waste time on it?”

As soon as this word comes out.

Randy Fender's face turned completely dark.

After pausing for a moment to calm down, he said, "So this is what Xue thinks?"

Zhuang Yan said bluntly, "It doesn't matter what he thinks. The fact is that this is what you do. You don't respect him at all. You even...you are insulting him. In this case, there is no need to force him to stay. You want your championship puzzle, Xue wants his own freedom, everyone gets what they need, and this can be considered a perfect ending."

Randy Fender also wanted to argue, "Now that I have brought the contract, isn't this not sincere enough?"

Zhuang Yan: "Then let me thank you on his behalf. Please come back."

With that said, he took the contract back.

And he stood up, clearly showing off his guests.

But Randy Fender remained motionless, "Ms. Zhuang, you may not have thought about the consequences of doing this."

Zhuang Yan: "The most serious consequence is that if Xue Liancheng doesn't play a game next season, you will deduct all his salary. It's that simple."

These words were like thunder on the ground, and Randy Fender was completely blown away in an instant.

Originally, he planned to threaten Zhuang Yan for as long as next season.

result.

Zhuang Yan threatened him in turn.

And most importantly, Zhuang Yan hit his trigeminal nerve.

Because this is a fact, the most serious consequence is not to play a game next season and all wages will be deducted. What can be done?

So what is one million and hundreds of thousands of dollars?
And they will lose the superstar Xue Liancheng in vain.

No matter how you look at it, this deal is not worth it.

But he could not swallow this breath and stared at Zhuang Yan coldly, "Then you can try..."

Zhuang Yan did not answer, but waved, "I think it's time for you to go back, Riley is waiting for you."

This conversation officially ends here.

Randy Fender walked away angrily.

Zhuang Yan just stared at Randy Fender's figure disappearing calmly, and finally exhaled secretly.

a long time.

Then he looked away, took out his cell phone, and made one call after another.

And that night.

The Xue Liancheng trading scandal completely detonated the entire basketball world.

"Shocking news, the Lakers are willing to offer Randle, this year's first-round pick, and two future first-round picks"

"Breaking Bad!"It is rumored that the Indiana Pacers executives said that they will do whatever it takes to acquire Xue Liancheng, Paul George, George Hill, Hibbert and other major players, so that they can be put on the shelves.

"The Knicks are interested in Xue Liancheng and are willing to send Anthony to help the Miami Heat"

"The Nets are also willing to trade young talents such as Lopez and Thaddeus Young for Xue Liancheng"

Basically, as long as they didn't make the playoffs last season, almost everyone participated.

As for the teams entering the playoffs, there are also a few teams that are willing to trade their stars for Xue Liancheng, such as the Raptors, Bulls, Mavericks, etc. The core players of these teams are not point guards, and they all want to get Xue Liancheng. .

The participation of such a large-scale team is rare in the world, and the sensation can be imagined.

However, neither the Heat nor Xue Liancheng responded.

This undoubtedly makes interested teams more excited.

What does it mean?
This shows that Wo Shen’s news is very likely to be true.

This is... a show!

At this time, their calls to Randy Fender became more and more frequent.

The fans, however, were in extreme shock.

"What's going on? Is this really a fight?"

"Who can tell me what happened?"

"When you won the championship, wasn't it good? Why did it suddenly break up?"

"If the Heat lose Xue Liancheng, the entire management will commit suicide."

"I don't understand why the Heat are so picky. In the middle of the season, there was a lot of fuss over the amount of the contract extension they negotiated. Now that they will win the championship, the Heat management is not willing to give up the three melons and two dates. It's really disgusting! "

"Leading the team to win the championship in the first season of the season. If such a superstar cannot be retained, the Heat management will really die."

In the midst of the uproar, a report from Sports Illustrated caused a huge sensation.

"According to reliable information, the Heat management staged a show to annoy Xue Liancheng. Xue Liancheng felt no respect and has decided to leave."

This time, a wave really stirred up a thousand layers of stone.

Even NBA officials were shocked and reposted it overnight.

If Xue Liancheng leaves, it will be a huge earthquake for the alliance.

Because Xue Liancheng has proven himself last season, averaging 23.2 points and 10.8 assists per game, leading the team to the best record in team history and winning the MVP.

In the playoffs, Xue Liancheng repeatedly performed the role of savior, pulling the team back from the brink of death time and time again. His performance was unbelievable in both the Eastern Conference Finals and the Finals, and his statistics were even more terrifying 30+ 10+6, finally won the championship and won the FMVP.

This is Xue Liancheng's first season to accomplish such a feat.

What about the future?
There is no doubt that Xue Liancheng is the cornerstone of the championship level. His departure is a fatal blow to Miami.

But on the other hand, it is an opportunity for other teams.

Those teams that failed to enter the playoffs last season want to acquire Xue Liancheng and charge towards the playoffs.

Those teams that have entered the playoffs want to go further, go further in the playoffs, and even hit the playoffs.

Equivalently, Xue Liancheng's departure will change the pattern of the alliance.

It became a matter of course that it caused a huge sensation.

Other fans left messages with their thoughts, especially the Los Angeles Lakers. Their record last season was last. The most powerful team in the league has fallen into its darkest moment. They continue to want a superstar to succeed Kobe Bryant.

Therefore, they are the most active and active.

"These two young talents Clarkson and Randall, plus this year's high draft pick, plus two more draft picks, that's about it, right?"

"The Lakers have the gene to gather superstars. When Xue Liancheng comes to the super market of Los Angeles, he will become the focus of the league at a faster speed and eventually become the face of the league."

"Both parties are mutually beneficial. The Lakers are definitely the best place for Xue Liancheng."

"The Lakers have trading chips, a core position in the team, and broad market prospects. It is really suitable to come to the Lakers."

However, some people are not happy.

The New York Knicks objected.

"The Heat are going to compete for the championship. Do you have any bargaining chips? You're thinking all day long."

"That is, we can provide Anthony, the offensive kaleidoscope, so that the Heat can quickly complete the reorganization. The Big Three combination is still very competitive, and we get Xue Liancheng and a cornerstone of the team. It can be said to be truly mutually beneficial."

"You are right. New York is the largest city in the world. Xue Liancheng comes to New York without worrying about exposure."

Except the New York Knicks.

The Indiana Pacers are equally active, and the chips they can provide are more attractive than New York.

George, Hibbert, and Hill are all tough players, especially George, who is younger than Anthony and has better defense, so he is particularly suitable for the Heat.

The most important thing is that the gimmick of Xue Liancheng coming home is so good.

The only doubt is that the geometry of George's short legs can be restored.

And amidst the turmoil, the draft came.
