From Today it is the King of the Basketball

"Uncle, you don't seem to be happy, what's wrong?" Little Loli asked with a hand on Liu Mang's face.

"It's okay Dina, some of the team's work is too busy, I have a headache." Liu Mang also poked Xiao Loli's face.

As if bringing home the unhappy mood at work, Liu Mang quickly adjusted his emotions and asked Levia, who was setting the dinner plate, and Alexia, who was serving the dishes: "Which of you will accompany me tomorrow?" Celebration feast? "

"..."

"..."

Alexia and Levia looked at each other for a few seconds without speaking, while turning their heads to look at Liu Mang, and said, "Aida (Levia) accompanies you."

"..." Liu Mang's turn was speechless this time, and his mouth twitched. "How much do you not want to go out with me."

"Too much trouble!"

Liu Mang heard Levia and Alexia's synchronous answer again, sighed, looked at the ceiling, and silently sighed: These two girls, how lazy?

"Uncle, uncle, mother and teacher will not go, Dina will be the uncle's partner!" Little Loli strongly showed her sense of existence.

It ’s better to be Lolita, but ... Liu Mang sighed again: "Dina, uncle is glad you want to help, but are you an adult? Can you make up? Will you wear high heels?"

Little Loli stood up and straightened her body. She looked down and saw the slippers directly. She sighed like Liu Mang and collapsed on the sofa.

In the end, Liu Mang looked at Levia and Alexia with rock paper scissors to decide who lost ...

...

...

On June 18, the championship parade, the Eagles team was very happy, this is the team's most glorious moment, enjoy the cheers of fans all over the city.

Thousands of people are empty, at this time, an urban area in Atlanta can be blocked and suspended through major roads in several major areas of the city. According to incomplete statistics, more than 900,000 people participated in this championship parade, and more than 400,000 in Atlanta More than 80% of the population participated in this championship parade.

Although security, medical preparation, traffic obstructions caused by road closures, etc. make the Atlanta city government pay a lot of money, the Atlanta city government is eager to come once a year.

More than 300,000 people in Atlanta participated in the championship parade, that is, more than 600,000 people are not locals, even if more than 500,000 of them are from other cities in Georgia, whether they are other cities in the United States or People in China, Asia, Europe, etc., as long as they come to Atlanta, they have to take a car, ask for money by car, ask for air tickets, and pay for food. People in Georgia can go back that day, maybe the United States Some people in other cities can also go back on the same day, but foreign tourists and some tourists from other states in the United States cannot go back, they need to find a place to live, and it is a sum of income, and many people come in advance and have begun to provide Atlanta Earned ...

Not only the Atlanta government fully assisted the Eagles in the championship march, the government paid more than 5 million US dollars, the Georgia state government sent people to help, tens of thousands of tourists came to Atlanta at the same time, and the Atlanta hotel industry received But come.

The four major league teams won the championship, not only the team's honor, but also brought huge economic benefits to the city.

The evening banquet was held in the free banquet hall provided by the Hilton Hotel to celebrate winning the championship.

Different from when I won the championship three days ago, it is not just playing around casually, but there is the Atlanta government. Local celebrities are going to attend formal banquets. They all need to bring a female partner in a formal dress. This is very simple for NBA players. Things, just like whether or not to like this occasion.

Fathers like Rahim who lived in middle-class families from an early age were the dean of the Yi religion in Washington County, Georgia. Similar to the priests of the Christian religion, they lived a prosperous life and liked this kind of occasion. People, it ’s estimated that one-hundredth percent of the religion is less than ...

Kevin Willis, Stockton, Korver, Calderon ... These are either merchants or white people, and they like this kind of occasion.

But others are just so-so. Those who haven't made money in the NBA just a few years ago feel uncomfortable. They have been in the NBA for a long time. Although they are not very used to it, they have at least some similar experiences.

Under the leadership of boss Price, Liu Mang and Leviaa greeted celebrities and government officials who were supposed to greet, and let Levia, who was easy to socialize, help Liu Mang deal with it. Si took Liu Mang to leave.

...

Liu Mang followed Price to the conference room of the hotel. Of course, they are all provided free of charge. The Hilton Hotel is completely at a loss. Just reporters who are standing outside the hotel will take them to the hotel no matter what they shoot. The name, the provision of several rooms and banquet halls, as well as drinks and food, will be able to rub the news of the Eagles' popularity and properly cheap advertisements.

As soon as he entered, he saw coach Kruger's anxious appearance. Liu Mang knew that Rahim was serious, and he notified the management immediately after the championship parade.

Jason Terry and Liu Mang were the first to know about it, but neither of them said that they did not want to affect the team.

"Aisi, you are finally here. Sharif's agent and his agent just found me and told Sharif to apply for a transaction, otherwise they will jump out of the contract." Coach Kruger said anxiously.

Apply for a transaction? By the way, Liu Mang remembered that if he jumped out of the contract and signed and then exchanged, it would be equivalent to a free agent. It could not be placed in the trade before the draft conference. It had to wait until the free market opened, similar to the future rocket trade to get Paul.

By that time, the daylily was cold. In this season, most of these teams chose to trade in the trading period before the draft conference. After the draft conference, they can only make verbal agreements before the free market is opened. Players in the queue outside the eight-man protection list are the objects of the transaction, so they may be taken away by the Bobcats.

But in this way, if Rahim renews the contract for up to six years, then in seven years, according to the rules, Rahim may lose up to nearly 10 million salary at most, from bird rights can take up to 7 The year was 136 million, which shrank to 110 million in six years, which is roughly equal to the contract of Mr. Lewis who was stolen from the Supersonics by the Magic in two years.

Even if Rahim and the current contract of US $ 14.5 million remain in the year, it would only be 124.5 million in 7 years.

According to the rules, after 1998, the player's contract with him can only be up to 7 years.

Liu Mang remembers that Kobe ’s 136 million contract that will create NBA history. After Kobe ’s departure, Kobe ’s renewal of the contract with the Lakers was only a verbal agreement. The formal signing was the early renewal deadline in 2004-2005. Before the date, the renewal was completed, and then the contract can be renewed according to the rules.

Looking at the current market, Rahim can't change his team and the top salary can't run. A small forward who can average 20 + 10 per game, put down the offensive to defend and rebound and get the rebounding king is also at the peak. Some teams want it, not to mention Rahim has just won the championship.

Liu Mang sighed in his heart. Rahim has already done his best. More than 10 million dollars. For NBA players, it is not a small number. He also notified the team so early and gave the team enough time. To operate.

Thinking of this, Liu Mang was completely calm, and calmly responded: "Coach, I know, Sharif told me."

Seeing Liu Mang's long-awaited look, and being very calm and calm, the anxious emotions of Coach Kruger and Price seemed to be calmed down a bit. The two looked at each other and realized what they felt.

"Ace, there is no room for recovery?" Coach Kruger asked with a hint of expectation.

Liu Mang shook his head and said: "Sharif can't jump out of the contract in public, so that we can choose the team he goes to. It is already very rare."

"Hey ..." Coach Kruger watched a dynasty lineup have been born, but the main guards of the rebound and the defensive connection between inside and outside want to leave, and they are sure to leave ...

"This is already the case. Let's discuss it and send Sharif there. Our plan for this summer will change." At this time, the most decisive thing was Price. Sometimes, Price's decisive decision The team is in a quagmire, but under Alexander's situation at this stage, Price's decisiveness is quite correct.

Hearing this, Liu Mang said quickly: "I think Sharif has given us the initiative and we should also give him a suitable new team."

Liu Mang thought that Rahim would treat him like this, and he should have the same return. Liu Mang chose to help Rahim find a good home as much as possible. At least, he could not go to the cold and cold Toronto or the backcountry. Memphis and other places.

"Of course, Ace, Sharif is affectionate, and we are affectionate." Price immediately replied.

This was beyond Liu Mang's expectations.

In the final analysis, it was all because of Liu Mang, Liu Mang's heavy feelings, and let the rest of the Eagles begin to feel heavy feelings, Rahim will make such a choice; Price is only to let Liu Mang live on the team Being happy and having a deeper feeling for the team is the most correct choice.

If Liu Mang is here, everything is possible. In Price ’s view, Liu Mang is equivalent to the Duncan of the Hawks. After the Spurs have Duncan, they won two championships in the first six years. Even if Duncan retires immediately, maybe For ten to hundreds of years, he is still the first person in the history of the Spurs. In addition to the Lakers and Celtics, other teams, especially the small ball city team, may have the entire team history for 50 or 60 years, and also the championship No relationship at all.

Therefore, despite the limitations of the chosen target, Rahim ’s transaction value will be discounted, but the loss is nothing compared to being able to win Liu Mang ’s heart.

...

...

Originally, Liu Mang wanted to take a break, and then went to Los Angeles to participate in the joint trial with the team on the 20th. Unexpectedly, the celebration feast was not over yet, and he began to be busy that night.

Head coach and offensive tactical coach Long Kruger, defensive coach Mike Woodson, shooting coach Chip England, boss Steven Price and the core of the team Liu Mang, came after the celebration Go to the Phillips Arena to study the future changes to the team's plans.

Originally everything was already arranged, but the plan could not keep up with the changes, and it was still such a big change that to the point of destroying the team's structure, we could only start working overtime immediately.

Liu Mang was not used to it, but the management and coaching staff were too used to it. Coach Kruger was working as a college coach to grab resources from college students, especially when he grabbed Marbury that year.

Scouts have also sent their own list of candidates for Rahim's departure, which is suitable for the team's requirements.

"The most difficult question before us now is not whether we can get good players, but whether we still want to maintain our current style of play. There is almost no player in the league who can replace Sharif's role this season. "At the beginning of the Kruger coaching meeting, I hadn't read the scouting report and directly pointed out the current problem.

Liu Mang and others heard it, right?

Change Artest?

This is a good choice. Artest has a good defense, and he is very defensive and tough. But he can't rebound! The Hawks are the No. 1 rebounder in the league. Rahim is the key. This second-year guy can get 10+ rebounds per game when a bad team has no one to help him. Individuals can replace it. Centers and pure power forwards may not be particularly difficult to find, but playing a small forward swingman will not find the second one.

The problems in front of the Hawks gave them a headache.

Price had a headache and put the question aside: "Let ’s take a look at the candidates recommended to us by scouts. Ace, you come and watch together. If you think it is appropriate, you can tell me."

Liu Mang couldn't think of a good way, the team would have to make a comeback like this? This ... it's too difficult to make this determination! This is the championship team!

Just when Liu Mang and the management and coaching staff were bored, watching the scout report without saying a word, Price's secretary hurried into Price's office and said directly: Boss, big news! "

The secretary ’s job now is to gather intelligence on other teams ’trading tendencies, whether it ’s with news sources or searching for news.

Seeing that the secretary rushed in without even knocking on the door, there must be something big happening!

...

The No. 2 pick has just been traded, and there is another big news. TNT broke the news. The Magic put their team superstar Tracy McGrady on the trading shelf, followed by ESPN. The team got news that McGrady would not choose to renew the contract no matter which team he was traded to.

Magic wants to trade McGrady!

The Tigers shocked the Lakers, but then saw the news that Tracy McGrady was unwilling to renew the contract.

The media's general view of this, the Lakers are most likely to get McGrady, Kobe Bryant changed McGrady, became a lot of media and fans expect things.

But when the Lakers arrived the next morning, nothing came out, but some teams with no matching chips, applied for a quotation from the Magic ... The news that was updated online in real time that night was that a certain team asked the Magic The team quoted, the Magic refused ...

The Hawks negotiated late that night, but did not discuss a result. At three o'clock in the morning, they each rested at the hotel not far from the arena. When the day dawned, Liu Mang woke up and went to the arena immediately. The boss and coaches had already Start working.

"Aise, are you here? What do you think of us trading McGrady? Is there a chance to persuade him to renew the contract?" Price asked Liu Mang and asked anxiously.

After Liu Mang went to sleep last night, coach Kruger and Price in the same hotel did not fall asleep overnight and discussed many possibilities. They felt that McGrady could be the best option.

Really want to trade McGrady!

Liu Mang didn't think about such things, at least before Rahim wanted to leave, he didn't think about it, because with Rahim, there is Prince, there is no need for McGrady, but now, think about it, playing with McGrady, very Exciting!

However, Liu Mang's first reaction was that he and Rahim and Jason Terry were called the three young eagles. When McGrady came, what did he call McGrady? The six-pulse combination ... a bit too much.

Liu Di ... It's a bit too much, Liu Mang thought of a giant ugly comedian in the future ~ www.readwn.com ~ Aite combination? It seems that this is good ...

"Ace? Ace? Ace ..."

Seeing Liu Mang suddenly lost his mind, Price repeatedly called Liu Mang several times before Liu Mang recovered.

Persuade McGrady? No problem at all! Liu Mang still remembers the joke, Liu Mang really wanted to ask McGrady: Now, buddy can already be Jordan, are you still willing to be Pippen?

In addition to being excited about the possibility of working with McGrady, it is also a good choice to send Rahim to the Magic. The Magic has a lot of ball markets, with Disney Orlando, the economy has always been strong, and it is close to the South Coast , The living environment is good, and the magic is about to select Howard, Rahim also has the future to expect.

Liu Mang immediately replied: "I'm not sure, but I'm 70% sure."

70% certainty ... When Price heard this answer, he was already quite satisfied. Sometimes he could reverse the collapsed situation, and he would dare to gamble!

Do people who dare to ask for big dogs dare to gamble?

"Long, Ace, Chip, Mike, I decided to trade McGrady with Sharif! Agree to raise your hand, vote!" Price immediately announced the vote and raised his hand first.

There is nothing else to vote here, it is just a passing scene, seeing Price so firm, everyone else chose to raise their hands.

If there is an opportunity to get McGrady, if it is not because there is almost no substitute for Rahim, this is simply a question that does not need to be considered, then McGrady! The Eagles coaching staff's doubts are only uncertain about the future, but some people strongly expressed their desire to get McGrady, and others followed.

Five votes passed!

Price immediately dialed the magic team general manager Jerry Martins, yes, that is the general manager who launched O'Neal worth 100 million ...
