Chapter 224: Could it be him?
A hysterical roar is constantly complaining about the injustice of this society. Zhao Wei also sighed for a while, but in Zhao Wei's opinion, this society is also fair at a certain level. No matter what means you use to get to a certain position, then the loser can only say that he is not strong enough. Therefore, it is better to plan for your future development.
Luke Wharton, behind Zhao Wei, was dumbfounded. Is this your first teaching assistant? This is a person who personally invited, and this is also a good friend of his own, how he hates himself. Luke Wharton was wondering if Brian Shaw would eat himself if he saw it now. Eat yourself alive.
Luke Wharton actually flinched, he took a small step back, but Zhao Wei seemed to have eyes on the back of his head.
A faint voice came: "It's all here, do you still want to give up?" If you can see through the Warriors, why can't you? ”
"No, there must be some misunderstanding." Luke Wharton said with a complicated expression, "They are my good friends. There is no way they can betray me. ”
"Good friends? Brothers are all settlers, not to mention just a friend. Zhao Wei scoffed at his statement.
"No, it won't. You don't understand. We've been together for so many years. Luke Wharton pleaded again, but his voice was no longer as confident as before. He's ambivalent.
Zhao Wei smiled faintly, this time he didn't speak, but slowly opened the door.
Looking at each other, both the people in the room and the people outside the room were stunned. They stared blankly at each other.
Zhao Wei walked into the room, just like his own home, walked directly to the chair of the desk and sat down, and then said, "Do you two have a crush on each other?" ”
Cough!!!
Luke Wharton was choked by Zhao Wei's sudden words and coughed for a long time.
When Luke Wharton entered, he closed the door.
After Brian Shaw came to his senses, he didn't speak, his eyes kept rolling, and he didn't know what bad idea he was thinking. It was difficult to hide a trace of panic between his eyebrows.
"You, why are you two here?" In the end, Brian Shaw couldn't resist the dazzling eyes of the two, and finally spoke first.
"Of course, it's for my trading." Zhao Wei said lightly, "I originally asked the teaching assistant, but when I got to the door, I heard that the teaching assistant was busy, so the two of us had to wait outside." ”
"Oh. I'm really sorry. I just got the message above. I'm also very much against this. However, you also know that I have a place to speak as a teaching assistant about such a thing. Brian Shaw's face was full of regret and indignation. However, his answer was to only mention Zhao Wei's transaction, and he didn't say a word about Zhao Wei's later words.
"Huh. So the TA was just mad at me about the trade? Zhao Wei asked lightly. If you don't want to mention it, don't mention it. Then I have no face.
"Of course, I'm preparing to go to General Manager Zhao Wei. I was doing the exercises just now. Brian Shaw hesitated, then immediately chimed in.
Luke Wharton has been standing to the side with a blushing face, it stands to reason that he should be the biggest person sitting in the main seat at this time, but he let Zhao Wei sit there and just stand on the side.
Luke Wharton didn't speak, and Brian Shaw didn't bother him. In his opinion, it is enough to solve this Zhao Wei first. Luke Wharton is a good friend of his, and he might just get over it.
"I just heard about it, and I think it's good. How can such an article not be listened to by the boss. I'm really at the right place today. It's not just the manager who wants to defend me. The first teaching assistant also wants to protect me. In this way, I don't have the support of the whole coaching staff. Zhao Wei ignored the gloomy faces of the two and said.
Brian Shaw was thinking about how to deal with Zhao Wei at this time, and nodded subconsciously, but then he understood and hurriedly waved his hand.
"How can you not go. I think the manager's speech was too bad, so Shaw, you have to go. My future is in your hands. Coach Luke, don't you say? Zhao Wei licked his face and said flatteringly.
"Uh, yes, yes." Luke Wharton was like a robot, answering without any emotion.
In the end, Brian Shaw couldn't resist and agreed to go along. However, he doesn't plan to help Zhao Wei stay with the Lakers. He had already thought about it, and he would say that Zhao Wei threatened him to come here and say something, in that case, Zhao Wei would definitely settle down when he left the Lakers. Haha, Luke Wharton mistakenly believed others, and the boss will definitely take the opportunity to get rid of him together. Then the position of head coach will be his.
Brian Shaw walked as he thought about it, and when he thought about the end, his face was already filled with a happy smile.
"Shaw, what are you thinking?" Zhao Wei suddenly asked, startling Brian Shaw. But this guy reacted quickly enough, and immediately said, "It's nothing. I'm wondering if the boss will surrender to us later. ”
……
In the office of the general manager.
Kupček stood respectfully at the bottom.
The old god Jimbas was lazily lying in the boss's chair, drinking coffee comfortably, and said lazily: "Kupchak, how are things going?" ”
"Boss, there's already news. The Knicks reached out to us as soon as we let the wind out. Very interested in being able to close a deal with us. Moreover, they are willing to offer very good chips, Porzingis. Last year we missed out on Porzingis in order to pick Russell. We have a chance to get him back this year. At the mention of Porzingis, a smile appeared on Kupchak's tired face for the first time.
Trained by West, whether it is a player or a manager, West can be described as a legend of the Lakers. Now the logo of dribbling on the NBA ball rack is based on West's creation, and there are countless honors. And such a genius is destined to be a genius when he becomes a manager. Successfully brought in O'Neal, immediately traded an All-Star center for a high school rookie, and the deal was on the day of the draft, and the rookie didn't have time to prove himself, and the deal happened. And that rookie is Kobe Bryant.
The OK combination of Kobe Bryant and O'Neal has played all over the NBA invincible. Three consecutive championships, and even only one loss in the playoffs.
After West left for the Pacers, the position of general manager of the Lakers fell to him as an apprentice. He can be said to have taken West's class, and he doesn't need to do it again. Because there is Kobe Bryant in the lineup. Kupchak can be described as sitting back and enjoying the success.
For a general manager like them, the greatest desire is to prove himself. However, the Lakers with Kobe Bryant are not his credit. After Kobe Bryant retired, it was his fault that the Lakers ended up like this. Naturally, he was eager to prove himself, but his boss was such a person. So, he was very happy to hear that there was a chance to get Porzingis. Joy from the bottom of my heart.
Jim Bass said lazily, "Good." It doesn't matter if you have chips, as long as you can get him away for me. Remember not to overprice. The lower the salary, the better. ”
The corners of Kupchak's mouth twitched, and he said, "Boss, Zhao Wei's salary is low enough." It's hard to find a lower salary than him. ”
"No way?" Jim Bass's eyes widened, and he said, "No, then give it away." ”
"It's not okay to give it away for nothing." Kupchak was about to cry stupidly by this boss, but he had to be patient to explain to others who made himself a subordinate.
"It's the rule. We can't give it away for nothing. ”
"It doesn't work, it doesn't work either. I don't care. All you have to do is send him away for me. Jim Bass yelled in exasperation.
"Roar!" Before Kupchak could reply, a coquettish laugh suddenly came to mind outside the door.
Hearing this laughter, Jim Bass's originally gloomy face became even more gloomy, and he looked at the office door in displeasure.
Jeanie Buss wore a straight women's suit, highlighting her perfect figure exquisitely,
"Why are you here?" Jim Bass asked unkindly.
"Me?" Jeanie Bass smiled and walked to the side and sat down, "Why can't I come?" I'm your sister. Isn't it normal to come here and see? ”
"We said okay, we definitely don't talk about family affection in official affairs." Jim Bass said in a deep voice.
"Good. If you don't talk about family affection, then I am also the president of economic operations. I take care of all the economic and operational aspects of the company. Jeanie Bass straightened her clothes and sat up straight, looking like she was going to have anything else to do.
Jim Bass knew that he was no match for this sister. His sister had already occupied a very important position in the company when his father was still alive, but he was still a swinger at that time. Knowing to play all day long.
Seeing that Jim Bass didn't refute, Jenny Bass slowly opened her mouth: "Brother, I just heard you say that you want to send it away?" Who to send away? ”
"Yes......" Kupchak tried to say, but was glared back by a warning look from Jim Bass.
'It's an internal matter of the team, it's not up to you. You'd better do your job. Jim Bass began.
"Huh. My brother is very strict with his subordinates. It's a good thing. When my father was alive, he was too lax in managing his subordinates. That's why so many transactions were made without my father's permission. Jeanie Bass smiled lightly, "Sister is also for your good." Recently, the company's operation has been too easy, and there is no purple gold flow in the basic mountain. My sister wants to help you too. Jeanie Bass had a small mouth, and every word was like a knife that pierced into Jim Bass's flesh, this kind of knife is still barbed, and you can't pull it out if you want to, so you can only hold on.
"You don't have to worry about my business." Jim Bass said displeased.
"Hehe, still so stubborn. However, I accidentally heard my brother say that he wanted to give it away for free, so it would be in my sister's hands. After all, every player is bought by us. Jeanie Bass smiled lightly, "Did you say?" Managing director. "Jeanie Bass bites the three words of general manager very hard.
"Yes." This time, Kupchak did not wait for Jimbass's warning, and spoke in advance, and Kupchak seemed to have opened the conversation box and ignored Jimbass's subsequent warning. Said to himself.
"It's Zhao Wei. The boss wants to trade Zhao Wei out. Just now I was negotiating with the boss about trading Zhao Wei! ”
"Zhao Wei." Jenny Bass frowned and pretended to think for a while, how could she not know Zhao Wei, but in order to do enough tricks, she had to do this before she spoke: "I know this young man, it's pretty good." Now he is the most talented person in the team. Why trade him? Jeanie Bass asked, incomprehensibly.
"This!" Kupchak glanced hesitantly at Jim Bass.
Jim Bass, who was almost out of breath at this glance, opened his mouth to scold. Oh my boy, now you think of me. I squeezed so many glances at you just now, why didn't you see it? How did you find this old thing, you must find a chance to replace him.
'Because we have too many players at the back. Interior players are positions that need to be strengthened. Now is the opportunity to seize it. Jim Bass was angry with Kupchak, but he had to answer it.
"Oh. So why not choose one with a lower potential? Jeanie Bass asked, confused.
"Of course we thought about it. But the opponent's chips are too tempting, and Zhao Wei is not an authentic No. 1 position. That's why we made this decision. Jim Bas suppressed his anger and said slowly.
"Oh? I don't know which team has such a deal? Jeanie Bass asked with a smile.
"It's the Knicks, and they're ready to trade us for Porzingis." This time it was Kupchak who spoke.
"Ahh Jeanie Bass snorted, this time her surprise was not fake, but real. Her relationship with Phil Jackson is naturally known to everyone, so she knows the situation on the Knicks' side very well. How could Porzingis' current position with the Knicks not be known. The Knicks would actually trade Porzingis. Jeanie Bass is still self-aware, and Phil Jackson will definitely not do it for herself. The figure of a young man appeared in her mind. Could it be him?
That's right, it's definitely him. This question didn't linger in Jeanie Buss's mind for long, and the answer was immediately available.
Jenny Bass reorganized her mood and said with a smile: "Porzingis, a very good young man, but, in my opinion, his potential is still worse than Zhao Wei." Isn't it too much for us to lose money on such a deal! Porzingis' rookie season was not as good as Zhao Wei's. ”
"Hey, when did my sister get to know my players so well?" Jim Bass suddenly opened his mouth to ask, which made Jeanie Buss stunned, but fortunately, Jeanie Buss reacted quickly enough, and said with a faint smile: "The inside and outside of the team are the company's affairs, and as a manager in this area, how can I not know about the company's affairs." Doesn't my brother know everything about my side too! (To be continued.) )
