Chapter 685 The Eve of the Tournament (3/4)

Next chapter

*Chapter 4 is late, so let's read it early tomorrow. ＞≧≯

Although the girls had already wandered around the cabin over and over again when the big plane was delivered yesterday, the excitement of receiving their own big plane was not so easy to pass!

So after less than five minutes of silence in the small theater where Garfield was playing, they ran out in a group again, and the cheering appearance was no different from Angel who got a new toy!

When Susa and Rui Qi'er got up and went to hang out, Qin Yi patted the two girls and told them not to run around and play for too long, so as not to tire out the baby in the womb.

Qin Yi was aggrieved, they were all old husbands and wives, this was all a hooligan

However, Garfield is still very good-looking, Qin Yi occupies the mattress-like cushion alone, and he is very interested.

It's just Portland, Oregon, it's really not far away, it only took a little more than an hour to arrive, and Garfield, who hasn't finished it, can only watch it when he goes back in the evening.

The Cowboys' game this time is to challenge the Portland Trail Blazers away, the Trail Blazers are not bad, in the Northwest Division Cowboys, Thunder, Trail Blazers, Jazz, Nuggets, these five teams, the strength ranks second, only weaker than the strong Thunder team.

Of course, this is the previous ranking, and whether the Cowboys can win it depends on tonight's table.

This is not the first time Qin Yi has come to Portland, the last time he inspected the ranch, he had stopped by to inspect the wine store, and at that time he also laid off a store manager, this is the first time that a middle-level manager like a store manager has been fired since the establishment of Qin's Wine Industry for more than a year!

However, this is not a bad thing, killing chickens and monkeys, knocking on mountains and shaking tigers, in the long run, it is still conducive to the industrial exhibition.

Not to mention these, I got off the plane, got directly on the special car that picked up the plane from the store, and came to the Rose Garden Arena, which is the home of the Trail Blazers, and at this moment, the Cowboys, who arrived yesterday, are also here for the final run-in training before the game.

The night before yesterday, the Cowboys had a game with the Utah Jazz and had a day off yesterday, so when Qin Yi rushed to the court with the girls, the players he saw looked very good.

This reassured the family a little, at least there was no continuous battle, and the players who had recovered well were just the right ones to fight a tough battle tonight.

When approaching the separate enclosed arena, Ginobili, LaVine, and a young player named Wiggins were taking turns practicing singles, and Duncan, Downs and several other big men who played inside were practicing inside confrontation on the other side.

Qin Yi waved his hand to signal everyone to continue, and asked the girls to find a place to sit at will, he watched as he walked, and slowly walked towards Tom, the head coach who came up.

Unlike last year's slightly soft style of play, which was more skillful because of poor physical fitness, the current Duncan is like a small truck, abruptly, with back-to-back singles, breakthrough layups and other body-oriented actions that emphasize physical competition, popping up from time to time.

**The confrontation with power makes the scene more hot.

However, the recovery of the body did not make him get carried away, and it did not lower his basketball wisdom, so Qin Yi saw more, and he still used faster and higher bounces to shake off the opponent or grab the rebound.

Qin Yi nodded secretly when he saw it, it seemed that the abundant body did not make this guy dizzy.

Of course, this is the best, otherwise at the price of 30 million US dollars in four years, it would be a big loss to invite a big truck that only knows how to do it!

That's right, Qin Yi gave Duncan so much of the offer, and the previous friendship price that Duncan gave to the Spurs was more than five million a year, so this price is relatively reasonable.

Before, Rui Qi'er had wondered, since Qin Yi gave the other party the body to play again, why did he make such a high offer? Maybe four or five million a year is enough!

Susa smiled and shook her head, and Chlo said she didn't know how to do business.

Rui Qi'er really doesn't know how to do business, according to what she said, it's okay to give four or five million a year, but in that case, Qin Yi's kindness to Duncan can be regarded as a consumption.

Because of such an offer, it is a bit aggrieved for a level star, and he may not say anything, but Duncan will definitely treat all of this as a transaction, and after playing for the Cowboys for four years and cultivating a few newcomers, the investment and return of both parties will be cleared!

But a relatively high annual salary is respect for Duncan, and if he is grateful, he will show that what he owes to Qin Yi seems to be never able to pay off, what to do, stay with the cowboys for the rest of his life, until he can't hold the basketball anymore!

Ginobili is 20 million for four years, which is also a more reasonable price, and the purpose is naturally the same as Duncan.

In fact, Qin Yi not only has the purpose of completely retaining the two of them, but also has the meaning of buying horse bones with his daughter.

Look at the previous players, either a forty-year-old uncle like Garnett, or newcomers such as Towns and LaVine who have just entered the NBA for a year or two, extreme polarization!

The reason for this situation is that in recent years, there have been no free agents willing to come to this weak team, and it is impossible to support a strong team just by selecting a rookie every year!

Now that Duncan and Ginobili have joined, they can barely put together a main force, but the remaining substitutes have no players who can handle it at all, so for the long-term development of the team, Qin Yi also has to prepare for signing free agents in the future.

"How's it going, Tom, is the lads' cousin okay? I think they're training pretty well right now. Looking at the players who were bouncing all over the field, Qin Yi asked casually with his arms crossed.

"Time is still too tight!"

Tom shook his head, a little regretful, "You know, boss, tacit understanding takes a long time to cultivate, but what we lack is precisely this damn time!" If you give me another two months"

Qin Yi smiled and didn't say much.

He was so busy that he broke his leg to pull up such a team, the dead fat man was not satisfied, if it was still the ragtag army before, this year's playoffs would definitely be another luxury, and now, at least there is hope of making the playoffs!

"How's the love of the players? There are a lot of criticisms from the outside world, but this is always inevitable, the two championship teams of the Warriors and the Cavaliers, are still scolded every day, not to mention our newly reorganized team? It's normal to have arguments, and you have to pay attention to dismissing them. ”

Qin Yi walked towards the bench and explained to Tom.

In fact, Tom, as the head coach, will definitely not be negligent in this aspect of enlightenment, but as a boss, his relief can naturally play a role.

Encouraging the substitutes, he called the controversial Rubio aside to say something reassuring and encouraging.

This did play a big role, seeing that the boss cared so much about himself, Rubio, who was originally strong but had tired eyes, suddenly became a lot more energetic, returned to the training ground with his head held high, and practiced tactics even harder, planning to show Xiàn at night and give those who made trouble a hard slap!

After that, in order not to affect the training effect of the players, Qin Yi did not wander around the training ground, took the girls to wander around the stadium, and by the way, he also went to the open training ground of the pioneers to hang out, which is called "spying on the military!"

However, the training at the open training ground is not really a tactical exercise, but more of a performance training for the local media.

Speaking of the media, Qin Yi remembered that the biggest critic before was the Portland Herald, okay, no wonder he was so eager to belittle the Cowboys, it turned out to be the local supporters of the Trail Blazers!

But it's no wonder that the new main lineup of the Cowboys doesn't play early or late, but they want to change the formation when they play against the Trail Blazers, obviously wanting to step on the Trail Blazers!

The Cowboys don't have good intentions first, and they don't blame people for lashing out! (To be continued.) )8
