I'm really not a 3D player

Chapter 177 Dayao’s decision

After the Warriors were eliminated, it meant that Sun Yi's rookie season also ended perfectly.

在常规赛82场比赛中，他没有缺席任何一场比赛，全勤打完了新秀赛，并且场均能够得到19.4分10.6篮板9.2助攻1.5抢断1.8盖帽的准三双数据。

季后赛打了11场比赛，场均能够得到22.6分11.3篮板9.4助攻2.2抢断2.4盖帽的全面数据。

The honors won in the rookie season include rookie game MVP, All-Star MVP, second team of the best team, first defense of the best defensive team, best rookie...

It can be said that Sun Yi played a perfect rookie season and won a lot of honors. It can be said that his debut is the pinnacle.

These honors did not let Sun Yi go to his head.

After the end of the season, he still insisted on training every day, and actively summarized his rookie season.

After discovering the problem, he discussed with the trainer Procopio to solve the problem, and then formulated a special training plan to make up for his own weaknesses in the offseason.

Just when Sun Yi was making reasonable plans for the offseason, the Eastern and Western Conference finals kicked off in full swing.

In the first game of the Western Conference Finals, Kobe showed his power and scored 40 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists.

Under his leadership, the Lakers beat the Suns 128 to 107 and took the lead.

On the other hand, in the first game of the Eastern Conference finals, the Magic and the Celtics played extremely anxiously.

Under the combination of Garnett and Perkins, Warcraft Howard struggled very hard and performed very poorly.

The Celtics took advantage of this opportunity, and Pierce and Ray Allen broke out one after another. The two played excellent performances and led the Celtics to a 92-88 victory over the Magic to seize the opportunity.

After the first game of the Eastern and Western Conference finals, the fans did not focus on the game, but ran to the Internet to eat a piece of news about the Warriors.

Warriors owner Chris Cohen has decided to sell the Warriors publicly.

Although the Warriors reached the playoffs this season, ticket revenue increased significantly, and due to the joining of Sun Yi, they signed several cooperation contracts with Chinese companies and achieved a turnaround from losses to profits.

However, the Warriors have been losing money in the past few seasons, and Warriors owner Chris Cohen has not focused on team management, and the financial revenue has been unable to make ends meet.

Therefore, taking advantage of the improved situation of the Warriors at this stage, they can sell at a premium and make a lot of money.

For Warriors owner Chris Cohen, who has long wanted to sell the team, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

When Sun Yi saw this news, he had some thoughts about it.

However, due to some external factors, it is impossible for an NBA team to have a Chinese owner, so he gave up the idea of ​​letting his mother buy the Warriors.

In the ensuing public bidding, Joe Lacob gave Warriors owner Chris Cohen an offer he couldn't refuse, essentially sealing the deal.

This shows that the Warriors are about to change to a new boss.

Sun Yi has no interest in who is the owner of the Warriors. As long as the salary is paid to his bank account on time, it will be feasible. Then he will stop paying attention to outside news and continue to carry out special training.

Just as the Warriors were about to change their boss, there was an undercurrent in the league.

Teams that have fished early have begun preparing for offseason reinforcements.

The team that did not make the playoffs wants to use the high draft pick to select the cornerstone of the team and soar into the sky.

Playoff-level teams want to strengthen their teams during the offseason to prepare for a further run next season.

Among them, the management of the Mavericks moved the fastest. They were very dissatisfied with the first round of this season. After being eliminated, they immediately carried out an offseason reinforcement plan.

In the president's office, Mavericks coach Carlisle and owner Cuban are discussing the results of this period of time.

"Mark, how's the deal going?" Coach Carlisle asked eagerly.

After experiencing the first round of the playoffs this season, Carlisle desperately hopes that the Mavericks can complete the inside reinforcement.

"The deal has basically been negotiated, but we have to wait for a while and don't make a decision in a hurry, because I have inquired about a big news. If this deal can be completed, the Mavericks' chances of winning the championship will be greatly increased, and maybe they can even create a dynasty. ."

Cuban's face turned red with excitement. After he recovered, he told Carlisle the gossip he had learned.

"Mark, what you said is true!" Carlisle couldn't believe the news he heard, his expression was very excited, and he wished to complete the deal on the spot.

This is one of the best big centers in the league. Although he was injured, only he recovered [-]% to [-]%, and the Mavericks took off directly on the spot.

"It's true, I've sent someone to get in touch." Cuban nodded with a smile.

Cuban is not satisfied with finding a suitable center for the Mavericks. They still have greater ambitions and longer-term plans.

At the same time, in the Oracle Arena general manager's office, Nelson Sr. and Warriors general manager Larry Riley were plotting.

"Larry, we need to strengthen around Sun and Stephen in the offseason. Do you have any good suggestions?" Old Nelson wanted to hear Larry Riley's opinion first.

"Mr. Nelson, if we want to go further, we cannot give up defense and must strengthen it in this aspect." Larry Riley expressed his point of view.

In the ongoing Western Conference Finals, the Suns, who can only attack but not defend, suffered a big loss. If they want to win the championship, they have to rely on defense.

Old Nelson nodded and did not refute Larry Riley's point of view. He also knew that there were some problems with his coaching philosophy.

"Then I will leave this matter to you. I will be in charge of this year's draft." Old Nelson assigned the task.

The Warriors made it to the playoffs, and the first-round picks they got were not high, so they could only pick up the misses or apply for a trade to get a high-ranking pick.

The players participating in this year's draft are of good quality, and Nelson has long been eyeing a few good seedlings.

"I hope this year's scouts are as blind as last year, so that we can pick up the leaks."

Nelson Sr. muttered something under his breath, and sent Larry Riley to negotiate trades with other player general managers.

The Warriors also set up the game in advance, just waiting for the harvest.

……

……

Just as the Eastern and Western Conference finals are in full swing, the 2010 NBA Draft Lottery is coming as scheduled.

The Washington Wizards won the No. [-] pick.

There is nothing tricky about it, Sun Yi doesn't believe it.

The Wizards just happened to get the No. [-] pick after going through the "gun door" incident and rebuilding. It can be said that the league really knows how to play.

The second pick was won by the Nets, and it was worth noting that they had the worst record in the league.

The No. [-] pick was won by the Digiman team, and the Digiman management is quite satisfied with this result.

The other draft picks are basically the same as those in Sun Yi's memory, except that the No. 6 pick that belonged to the Warriors in the original history was won by the Clippers.

Since the Warriors entered the playoffs this season, they only got the 22nd pick in the first round and the 8th pick in the second round.

The question about the draft has nothing to do with Sun Yi.

He is not yet qualified to dictate to the team management. If the team wants to seek his opinion, Nelson will take the initiative to discuss it with him.

For the 10-year draft, even if Sun Yi participated, he would not be able to select any good seedlings.

The Warriors' picks are too low, and potential players have long been drafted away by other teams, so they can only be missed, but there are not so many leftovers in this draft.

In Sun Yi's memory, Stephenson is the only player from the 10th round of the show.

Whiteside was changed by Sun Yi and became a player in the 09 class.

If the Warriors management wants to listen to his opinion, then recommend Stephenson.

This guy is still somewhat useful and can defend James.

……

As time passed, the Eastern and Western finals were decided.

In the series between the Lakers and the Suns.

With the Suns trailing 0 to 2, they won two games in a row to tie the total score, and the two sides entered the battle of Tianwangshan.

The battle of Tianwang Mountain was very fierce, and the winner was decided at the last moment.

With 3.5 seconds left in the game, Jason Richardson of the Suns hit a three-pointer to tie the game.

The last attack of the Lakers was executed by Kobe.

After receiving the serve from the sideline, Kobe made a three-point shot against the difficult defense of the Suns.

It's a pity that Kobe made a three-point shot, but Artest, who rushed into the paint, grabbed a key offensive rebound, scored in the second offense, and completed the lore.

Relying on Artest's tip-up lore, the Lakers narrowly beat the Suns by 2 points and won the match point.

This battle of Tianwangshan had a great blow to the morale of the Suns. They were only one step away from winning the game.

In the sixth game of the subsequent series, the Lakers did not give the Suns any chance and won strongly.

In the end, the Lakers advanced to the finals with a total score of 4-2.

The Eastern Conference finals were also very intense.

With the Magic trailing 0-3, they won two games in a row to tie the total score to 2-3.

Fans had expected the Magic to win Game [-] in one go and drag the series into a tiebreaker.

Moreover, they desperately hope that the Magic can create a miracle of a 0-3 comeback.

But miracles don't happen easily in basketball games.

In Game [-] of the Celtics-Magic series.

Pierce suddenly broke out and scored a double-double of 31 points, 11 rebounds and 5 assists.

Howard played the best performance in this round of the series, scoring a double-double of 28 points and 12 rebounds.

The Celtics came out on top, beating the Magic 96-84 to secure the victory.

In the end, the Celtics advanced to the finals with a total score of 4-2.

So far, the East and West finals are over, and the Lakers and Celtics will meet in the finals.

For the upcoming finals, Sun Yi has no interest. In his memory, he has a deep memory of this round of finals. He doesn't want to think about it anymore and continues to train.

During this period, Dayao organized a party, and Sun Yi thought of combining work and rest, so he went to attend the appointment.

After eating and drinking, Dayao explained his intentions.

"Ayi, have you ever thought about playing for the national team?"

After hearing this, Sun Yi learned that the Basketball Association sent Yao as a lobbyist and wanted him to participate in this year's World Championships.

"Brother Yao, will you participate in this year's World Championships?" Sun Yi asked with a smile.

"I have this plan. After all, the World Championships are very important." Seeing that Sun Yi saw his intentions, Dayao showed a characteristic embarrassing smile.

"But you are still recovering. There will definitely be problems if you come back early. For the sake of your own health, it's better not to fight." Sun Yi advised.

"But if I don't play, the national team will definitely not be able to achieve the goal." Dayao said helplessly.

"Brother Yao, then you reply to the Basketball Association. If you want me to join the national team, then let Brother Yao rest and don't have to come back early. This is my condition. If you agree, I will go to the World Championships." Sun Yi said firmly.

He is not a player in the system, and he is not worried about the mandatory recall by the Basketball Association.

"Ayi, thank you for thinking of me, I will pass on your words to the leader."

Dayao sincerely thanked Sun Yi and felt that this friend was very worthwhile.

"Brother Yao, you really don't need to thank me. I also have selfish intentions. I still want you to accompany me to participate in the 12 Olympic Games." Sun Yi said jokingly.

Dayao laughed out loud after hearing this. He is bound to win the 12 Olympics. Without Sun Yi's reminder, he will also keep fit to play in the Olympics.

"Okay, I'm done talking about business, I have a personal matter, you can help me refer to it." Dayao said in a good mood.

"Oh, tell me about Brother Yao." Sun Yi was a little curious about Yao's personal affairs.

"My agent informed me that the Mosaic team wants me to jump out of the contract and renew with a salary cut so that they can sign star players in this year's free market. What do you think?" Dayao asked.

"I think it's okay to jump out of the contract, but you can't cut the salary and renew the contract. You have paid too much for the Mosaic team. It's time to think about your own career." Sun Yi expressed his opinion.

"They used the excuse that I couldn't return to my peak state after my comeback, and they crazily lowered the price, and they won't renew the contract with a maximum salary. What should I do then?" Dayao expressed his worries.

"There is no place for me to stay, I have my own place to stay. Dayao, you are very popular in the free market. As long as you jump out of the contract and test the free market, you will definitely be robbed and you will not be able to find the team to renew your contract with the maximum salary." Don't worry," Sun Yi analyzed.

"Will this be disloyal? After all, the Mosaic team is my first team after I landed in the NBA." Dayao said tangled.

"This alliance is originally a business alliance. There is no such thing as loyalty or disloyalty. As long as you are valuable, they will enshrine you as a bodhisattva. But once you have no value, they will kick you out. The best example is your former teammate McGrady." Sun Yi gave an example.

Dayao nodded, feeling that what Sun Yi said was very reasonable. He, a mature man over 30 years old, was not as thorough as a young guy, so he felt ashamed.

"Okay, I'll listen to you. I'll communicate with my agent after I go back and see how the Mosaic team treats me." After Dayao finished speaking, he made up his mind.

Sun Yi nodded and chatted with Dayao about other topics.

After the meeting with Dayao, Sun Yi returned to Oakland to continue training, waiting for Dayao to inform him to go to the national team to report.
