Chapter 253: Toronto's Five-Year Plan! (6600 words, thank you readers!) )
【 WWW.】, wonderful free reading!
"Sue, confirm we're just talking about the Phoenix Suns...... Steve Nash? ”
"Yes, Coach."
“......”
To be reasonable, if it weren't for being too impressed by Nash's defense, Davis felt that he almost believed in Su Feng's evil.
Under Su Feng's description, to Davis's ears, what did Su Feng tell him about Nash......
Is it okay to be an MVP-level point guard?
Well......
Well!
Davis may not believe it, but in Su Feng's previous life, Nash really won the MVP, and he won it twice in a row.
Of course, the current Nash certainly can't be compared to the future MVP.
However, Su Feng, who tried out with Nash in Phoenix City in his early years, knows Nash's cake-making ability very well.
To make a simple score, if the current Nash only has a total rating of about 70 to 75, then he is diametrically opposed to Su Feng in that this product is full of passing and projection talent, and ......
A player who "defends the sky".
To be honest, if the Raptors' lineup this time can really be built according to Su Feng's expectations, it is indeed a lineup that can't be formed even if it is playing 2K.
However, such a lineup is also based on the fact that the current group of people are not at their peak, and among them, people like Su Feng, Maddy, Carter, Nash and others are still rookies.
Therefore, since it can influence Davis, in Su Feng's opinion, if the Raptors want to snatch a few championships from the future Hukai hegemony pattern, then the team's lineup is not strong, how can Su Feng hammer it alone?
Just look at O'Neal's early career experience to see how powerful the shark was in the regular season, and how impotent his team will be in the playoffs.
And this is another reason why Su Feng doesn't want the Raptors to give up choosing Carter because of himself.
Because under the premise that Duncan and O'Neal are sitting in the two major bosses in the east and west respectively, instead of continuing to find a way to make up for the inside, in Su Feng's opinion, why not do the opposite and fight the violence quickly?
You know, this lineup is not as simple as being fast.
This is definitely a team that can use talent to break through the limitations of the HC rules.
In Su Feng's previous life, even the HC rules couldn't stop Carter's buckle.
Add that to his own offense, Nash's playmaking, and the depth of the bench behind the removal of Maddy to the bench......
One thing to say, before this lineup is dispersed, at least next, there will be a dozen with the Lakers and Celtics, as well as Jordan, whose whereabouts are unknown.
There is no way, a dream lineup like this, this time it is also possible to realize it under various coincidences.
Su Feng knows very well that in his career in the future, it may be difficult to reproduce a dream lineup like this.
Other than that......
What you may not believe when you say it is that if this lineup is taken out temporarily, if you don't look at it with the eyes of crossing, then at that time, there will definitely be many people who think that Su Feng is going to be tired......
……
After a long Amway......
Su Feng finally persuaded Davis.
Especially at the end of the chat between the two, Su Feng made Davis cry and laugh with the sentence "Coach, I once played Jordan".
Originally, Davis wanted to say to Su Feng at that time:
'Child, can you please not fill the cup in front of me?'
The coach who beat the Bulls last year was me! ’
But Davis, who had almost nothing to talk to Su Feng, did not break Su Feng's cup.
Because right now, the Raptors do have a chip that Davis thinks is superfluous.
The deviated trajectory of history made the train go to Toronto this time.
In Su Feng's previous life, the Raptors, Trail Blazers and Celtics would complete a three-way trade before the trade deadline for the 97/98 season.
But in this life, for various reasons, this three-way deal did not come to fruition.
Under Auerbach, because there is no Billups with him, Di Brown is currently a well-behaved player in Boston.
And under Popovich's strict discipline, Billups also grew quite well, so in Su Feng's previous life, this famous three-way transaction became a one-on-one transaction in this life.
The Raptors don't want to make a splash on Damon Stoudemire, and the Trail Blazers, who are eager to change, have also come up with relatively sincere chips.
After friendly negotiations between the two teams, the Raptors acquired former All-Star guards Kenny Anderson, Gary Trent, Elvin Williams, and a 1999 Trail Blazers first-round pick.
The latter got "Flying Squirrel", Walter Williams, and Carlos Rogers.
In Su Feng's previous life, the reason why the Raptors didn't want to take over Kenny Anderson was that they preferred to scratch a lottery like Billups.
But it's just the time of the moment.
Compared with leaving directly after the expiration of the "flying squirrel" contract, in the eyes of the Raptors uniform team, stop loss is the king.
Thereupon......
Since Kenny Anderson isn't what the Raptors want, why not talk to Phoenix?
And just like Su Feng fooled Davis, it took Davis several hours to get through Gruward's ideological work.
"Man, haven't you always wanted the local market?
Steve is Canadian, and I think Toronto fans would love to see him play for the Canadian team. ”
There is no doubt that Davis's words became the last straw that crushed Gruward.
Because......
It seems that this is really the truth.
Anyway, it's all scratching lottery tickets, so it seems that it's okay to scratch Nash.
It's just that......
After communicating with Phoenix, the scene of these professional general managers of the NBA who like to treat the new team as mentally retarded has reappeared.
As Phoenix's number one talker, Danny Ainge bluntly said that Steve Nash is Phoenix's valuable asset and not for sale for the team after receiving an offer from the Raptors.
To put it bluntly, Anji's implication is that the Raptors don't have enough chips and have to add money.
You must know that in Su Feng's previous life, Nash would have been traded to the Mavericks next season, and judging from the trading chips given by the Mavericks at that time, it was impossible to be bigger than Kenny Anderson.
After all, that's Nash at this point......
What else can he do besides biting his socks after the game?
In the 97/98 season, as Kidd's old substitute, Nash averaged "9+3" data per game.
In the regular season, Angie didn't try to have Kidd play with Nash as a two-point guard.
But Nash's defense, which was so bad that he could even send an assistant coach to go up and break through, made Angie completely abandon this bold idea.
In addition, after Kidd gradually regained his heart and performed better and better, Angie no longer wanted to keep Nash.
It turned out to be a coincidence, and now there is a big man who wants to ask for Nash, so in Anji's opinion, when will he not rob at this time?
It is worth mentioning that after Angie rejected Gruward's proposal many times, Gruward, who "doesn't know the ball", was convinced of Nash's strength......
Under Angie's "uh-huh", after consulting John Davis's advice......
In this way, the Raptors were "robbed".
The Suns and Raptors agreed that the two teams would trade at the draft.
At that point, the Suns will send Nash and Mark Bryant, while the Raptors will send Kenny Anderson and a first-round pick they acquired from the Trail Blazers in a trade for "Flying Squirrel."
This deal, if you don't look at it with the eyes of crossing, then the sun will definitely make a lot of money.
Not only did they get a former All-Star guard, but incidentally, they also cleaned up Mark Bryant's "rotten" contract and a first-round pick from the 1999 Trail Blazers.
But when Su Feng learned about this deal, he wanted to say:
Anji is really a "good person".
First of all, Kenny Anderson, whether it is strength, potential or style, in Su Feng's opinion, is not as suitable for this Raptors as Nash.
Secondly, Mark Bryant's "rotten" contract, after the end of this labor negotiation, is a small contract of more than 2 million, how can it be rotten?
Finally, not surprisingly, according to his memory, Paul Allen will increase the burning of the Trail Blazers next season, and once the Trail Blazers rise, how much will this Trail Blazers' first-round pick be worth at that time?
In contrast, even if Nash's contract expires next year, as long as the Raptors are willing to give him a decent contract, how difficult will it be to keep Nash?
In Su Feng's previous life, under the old Nelson, Nash got a contract of less than three skins a year after the end of his rookie contract that year.
In the Raptors, maybe Nash's statistics will be better, but as far as Nash's defense is concerned, before he reaches the full body of the "Sun King", Nash's salary will not only not become a burden to the Raptors, but will also become an important guarantee for Su Feng in the "Toronto Five-Year Plan".
Su Feng will definitely not do this kind of thing to help capitalists squeeze their own people, but ......
As far as Nash's "defensive failure" in his early years, if it weren't for the fact that the Raptors had a bunch of swing guards who dared to take him over, who else would be there besides the crazy old Nelson?
In short, counting the last year of the rookie contract, Su Feng in Toronto's five-year plan, no matter from which point of view, as long as Ange is willing to trade Nash, the Raptors will definitely earn it.
Because in the future, when these people reach their peak, the world will definitely sigh that the Raptors of that year were too buggy......
……
"That is, Ben...... Want to come to Toronto with you too? ”
On this day, in addition to chatting with Davis about the Raptors' tactics next season, in order to get rid of Big Ben's "love is stronger than Jin Jian's seven-day lock" as soon as possible, Su Feng also specially mentioned Big Ben's matter to Davis.
And for a loyal and courageous chivalrous man like Big Ben, what can Davis do besides applaud?
Of course, according to the current prospects of labor negotiations, Davis and Su Feng have the same idea, even if the Raptors want to sign Daben, they will have to wait until the labor negotiations are over.
However, Davis made a guarantee to Su Feng that if Big Ben is willing to join the Raptors, the Raptors will at least give Big Ben a contract of about two or three skins a year.
In this regard, it was not much different from what Su Feng expected.
After all, after the labor negotiation is over, the contract at this level of tens of millions is the maximum salary.
The salary cap in the 90s is not as good as the future, Su Feng's previous life, originally had to wait until 2000 for Daben to get a 6-year contract with a total price of 34 million in the Motor City.
Therefore, if Big Ben can get a big contract in advance, then in Su Feng's opinion, he will not fail him.
"Ben, now, can you let me go? I'm going to take a shower. ”
After hanging up the phone with Davis, Su Feng looked desperately at Big Ben who was hugging him and said.
No......
Aren't the general crossing male protagonists all young and right?
I don't know why, maybe it's because I've been watching Big Ben and Kobe for a long time, and now Su Feng feels like he has clear eyebrows even when he looks at the handle......
"Hehe, are the Raptors really willing to give me so much money?"
After listening to Su Feng's words, a lewd smile appeared on Big Ben's hideous face.
This moment, coupled with the picture of him licking the corners of his mouth, not to mention how terrifying it is.
Su Feng: "......"
……
He appointed "Kamai" to be his own Pippen together, secretly influencing Davis PY to come to his own "sock brother" Nash, plus to deal with the future of Tadashi Ben......
These days, Su Feng feels like a "time-traveler".
"Oh no...... I seem to be a time-traveler. ”
One thing to say, Su Feng has become more and more looking forward to Toronto's five-year plan.
After all, if this lineup is not in reality, but in the game, it is impossible to put these people together in a team.
So, where is the setting of 2K reasonable?
Just the 2K bunch of designers, they know a hammer basketball?
Of course......
Even though it is a happy event to leave Brown's clutches, these days, after getting from Pat Krauss that Iverson has communicated with the team management at least seven times, saying that Su Feng is not sad, how is it possible?
Su Feng is not a virgin, but in this life, he has become a "fox friend and dog friend" with Iverson, and when he learned that Iverson was for himself, he even did not hesitate to say:
"If the 76ers chose to trade Su Feng in consideration of the next hard salary cap, then Iverson would be willing to take some less money than Su Feng at that time", Su Feng was sad......
"Su ...... Tomorrow is the draft meeting. ”
On the 22nd, on the eve of the draft, Pat Kraus and Su Feng had an last phone call.
"Yes......" Su Feng let out a long sigh and replied.
"I know that no amount of persuasion will change my mind.
However, I sincerely hope to think about it again......
As Berlinberg said, Larry is a great manager, and as long as he is willing to make changes, then ......"
It's a pity that Su Feng didn't let Klaus continue.
Because, sadness is sadness, but Su Feng knows very well that unless the 76ers are willing to pay the "price" of keeping themselves, otherwise, he and this 76ers are destined to break up.
And it is obvious that even if Pat Kraus attaches great importance to his feelings, he will not be able to pay the "price" of leaving Su Feng.
Su Feng and Klaus are both smart people.
Therefore, after Su Feng expressed his wishes, Klaus did not continue to entangle with Su Feng.
……
On June 23, the 1998 NBA Draft was held in Vancouver.
Unlike the noise of previous drafts, this year's draft has not received much attention because of the suspicion that the NBA may be shut down next season.
In addition, similar to the future 09 generation, the 98 generation is also labeled as average quality by the scouts at this time.
But for Su Feng, who knows the future, he knows that the overall quality of the 1998 draft is very high, and among the high-pick rookies, except for the Clippers' performance as normal as ever, most of the players will become All-Stars in the future.
In Philadelphia, Su Feng was at home, watching this year's draft with Big Ben and Kobe.
And since he knew that Su Feng would be traded to the Raptors, Kobe, who originally planned to stab his heart with the matter of the West Floor, even took the initiative to take on the task of washing dishes after meals in the past two days.
It's just that while washing, Kobe Bryant always shows a lewd smile.
Well......
Well!
He Kobe Bryant was by no means gloating over the fact that Su Feng was sent to the Frontier, he was simply excited about playing against the Raptors next season.
Think, when playing the Raptors next season, his great Lakers starter, All-Star starter, Kobe Bryant, should he hammer that silver Su Feng, or chisel that copper-colored Maddie?
And as long as he thinks of this picture, Kobe Bryant feels that he can't calm down.
Well, that is, Su Feng didn't know Kobe's thoughts.
Otherwise, when this Raptors have more Carter, Su Feng will even have a picture in his mind that Kobe Bryant doesn't know whose brand he is turning among the three Sukamai.
In Vancouver, because of the labor negotiations, Stern was booed more and more when he took office.
Fans want to put pressure on the league in a variety of ways, after all, for fans who are used to watching NBA games, they don't want to see a shutdown happen.
And after an opening remark, Stern's skillful smile was emotional......
President, he's president.
In Su Feng's previous life, the "joke" would be more or less embarrassed when facing the boos that had become traditional.
But Stern's smile at the draft, if you really watched the live broadcast of the draft, it would feel like this person ......
It's a tool man who doesn't have feelings.
In the first pick in the first round, the Clippers played more steadily than Victor Lee.
If there are 10 answers to a multiple-choice question, and 9 of them are correct, you can choose the only wrong answer among the 9 answers......
It's definitely Lord Baylor.
Michael Olawokandi, who is from Nigeria and has the template "Olajuwon", wore a Clippers hat and excitedly stepped onto the main stage.
Similar to his predecessors, Olawokandi has not been in basketball for a long time, but he is very quick to learn.
In his junior year, he led the team to sweep the entire Pacific Division, averaging "20+10" per game.
Elgin Baylor is simply the most legendary general manager in the NBA, because even though he has countless NT in his life, he has always sat firmly in the position of general manager of the team.
The difference between Olavokandi and Olajuwon is just that the former has one more word than Olajuwon's name.
People only notice Olajuwon's figure, but forget that he has flexibility, coordination, speed, and explosiveness that doesn't match his size.
In addition, Olajuwon also has a very soft feel.
You must know that at the peak, the unique work of Big Dream's ruling alliance was never "Big Dream Footsteps", but his all-round blow that could be near or far, fast or slow.
When he was PK with O'Neill King City, O'Neill couldn't prevent Olajuwon, because this old goblin would always take himself out of the paint area to duel.
But Olavocandi's hand felt stiff, not to mention how stiff it was.
At seven feet tall, he has five embarrassments in his career, and he can't score when he is empty under the basket.
And the most ridiculous thing is that in his career, he has a two-point shooting rate of less than 30%, and a long-distance two-point shooting rate of less than 20%, and he also said in a future interview:
"Actually, I'm a shooter."
Get......
The Clippers wasted another No. 1 pick.
Next, with the second pick in the first round, the Grizzlies chose Mike Bibby, who played the McDonald's High School All-Star Game with Su Feng that year.
Bibi, nicknamed "White Devil", is tough, but the grizzly bear's choice is also a mine-burying choice.
Because in the future, if they can choose Francis again, then Francis will 100% refuse to report to Vancouver.
With the third pick in the first round, the Nuggets selected Lafrentz from Hampton.
A chubby, somewhat cute-looking white man.
Lafrenz has a soft hand, especially a left-handed three-pointer, which is difficult to guard.
His characteristics and positioning, in Su Feng's opinion, are what Wang Zhizhi should learn.
Before the major injury, Lafrentz received a large contract of 10 million yuan and played in the NBA for many years.
In Su Feng's previous life, Dazhi, who was swelling at this time, couldn't see the gap between him and Nowitzki, but in fact, let alone Nowitz, even Lafrenz was a height that Dazhi could hardly reach after he poured everything he had.
"Sue, the king of the compatriots, will be chosen in which order?" Philadelphia, Kobe Bryant, who was sitting on the sofa, looked at Su Feng curiously and asked.
Su Feng spread his hands, if nothing else, then Su Feng estimated that Dazhi should be selected by the Maverick in the second round.
After all, only the madman old Nelson can do such a thing as cultivating the two major defensive black holes of Nowitzki and Wang Zhizhi at the same time.
However......
Just when Su Feng was patiently waiting for his Pippen to arrive on the battlefield, at the scene in Vancouver, the Lakers' forward combat group suddenly received a call from the LOGO man.
On the phone, the LOGO man only made two requests to the Lakers.
The first requirement is that the Lakers will be the first pick in the second round this year, and according to the original plan, select Rashad Lewis, a talented high school student from Louisiana.
The second requirement is to ask the Lakers forward combat team to spend money to buy the Bulls' second-round No. 4 pick, and this pick is just before the Dallas Mavericks' second-round pick this year.
"This sign, please use to choose, the big forward from China, Wang ...... Govern....... Zhi. ”
On the phone, Jerry West said word by word to the Lakers Forward Combat Group.
……
Since regretting missing Su Feng, the LOGO man who learned from the pain has set his sights on Lewis this year.
Lewis, who is 208 cm tall, is also an excellent swing man.
Lewis, who became famous in this year's McDonald's high school competition, has been selected as an All-Star in the future, won a big contract of hundreds of millions, shot accurately, and hit a total of 1,787 three-pointers in his career.
This season, after Kobe Bryant was promoted to the small forward position by Harris, the LOGO man noticed the lack of confrontation ability when Kobe Bryant played the small forward position.
It's just that West doesn't want Kobe to continue to gain weight to play small forward.
Because in West's view, at least for now, the Lakers need a light and agile Pennsylvania Magic more than Los Angeles Marlon.
And after noticing the weakness of Lewis in the scouting report, when trying out Lewis, West thought, why not let this kid play small forward?
Lewis' projection is mediocre at the moment, but he's already shown to be quite talented.
West is well aware that what OK needs in the future is a space-type player, so Lewis's characteristics are a perfect fit for the future Lakers.
As for his status as a high school player, for the Lakers who have already scratched Kobe's ticket, what about another Lewis?
To put it bluntly, after Su Feng was born, what he inspired was not only John Davis's inspiration.
In the case of a monster like West, as long as you open your eyes a little, you can find the only correct answer out of 10 answers.
And the Lakers want to choose Wang Zhizhi because West is looking for someone to PY to get the video of Wang Zhizhi during the Mavericks tryout.
In the same way as Lewis, a space-based power forward like Wang Zhizhi is the most perfect reinforcement for OK in the eyes of the LOGO man.
And how could old Nelson, who was full of joy and waiting for Nowitzki and Wang Zhizhi, think that one of his choices had been predetermined by someone......
