The show finally came to an end, and the person who won the MVP was Karim. Rush.

"Hot, thank you! The Minnesota Timberwolves have agreed to sign me to a ten-day contract! I'm Karim. Rush is about to enter the NBA! "Obviously, compared to the honor of the Showcase Karim. Rush is more interested in this 10-day contract.

"Congratulations, Karim, then you have to work hard and try to stay with the Timberwolves!" Tang Qian sincerely blessed that he had been in the NBDL for half a season, and he had figured out some of the thoughts of the people inside. The people who stay in this development league have ambitions or dreams, otherwise just with the salary of the NBDL league, I am afraid that one percent of the people are not willing to stay.

"Hahahaha, then I'll borrow your auspicious words! Hot, the team will ask you in the future, if I get a foothold in the Timberwolves in the future, I will definitely come back to visit you! "Karim. Rush said.

"Well, I'll do my best, don't worry." Tang Qian nodded.

That night, Karim. Rush flew to Minnesota because for a "temporary worker" like them, any time is precious. Sent Karim away. After Rush, Tang Qian walked into the empty training hall and began to think about his future.

After thinking about it for a long time, Tang Qian still decided to give it to Ivanka. Dukan made a phone call, and somehow, he was always a little uneasy about certain things.

The phone rang for a long time, as if it was also being considered on the other end, but eventually, the call was connected.

"Hello, Mr. Dukan, are you resting?" Tang Qiandao.

"H, hi~ It's hot, what's wrong, do you have something?" Ivanka on the other end of the phone. Dukan tried to keep his tone as normal as he could.

"No, I just wanted to ask, why didn't you show up? Didn't you say before that you'd come over when you had time? Are you not feeling well these days? Tang Qian asked.

"Oh, oh~ No, no, I have something delayed, don't worry, I don't have any problems with my body, I'm very healthy." Ivanka. Dukan forced a forced smile.

"That's good." Tang Qian said: "I don't know if there are any other activities you need me to go over to?" I'm going to have a good look at the team's schedule so I don't have any conflicts. ”

"Uh, um, no, it's not hot for the time being, you just need to prepare for the Defenders game." Ivanka. Dukan hesitated slightly, then slowly opened his mouth in reply.

"That's right." Tang Qian thought about it, but couldn't help but ask, "By the way, Mr. Dukan, how was the thing you told me last time?" Is there any response from the Bulls? ”

On the other side of the phone, there was a sudden silence, and for a while, Ivanka. Dukan reopened his mouth and said, "Hot, why do you ask that?" Do you notice something? ”

"Oh, no, sir, I'm just a little distracted these days, so I can't help but want to call you and ask."

After about eight or nine seconds, Ivanka. Dukan said, "Well, hot, you Chinese have always been very keen, and I just want to talk to you about this matter." ”

"What's wrong? Mr. Dukan, is there something wrong? Tang Qian also noticed that the other party's tone seemed to be a little wrong, so he hurriedly asked.

"Yes, hot, there's something wrong with that." Ivanka. Dukan said with a sudden sigh.

It's the days when NBDL is holding a Showcase. Dukan and Garr. Foreman almost quarreled with the sky, and the reason for this was Tang Qian.

"Ivanka, I said that we wouldn't choose this person, why do you continue to entangle? And you bypassed me and went straight to the boss, which caused a huge damage to my prestige in the team, you understand??? "Gal. Foreman shouted over the phone, almost at the top of his voice.

As the new general manager of the Bulls, what he rejects most is that his subordinates challenge his authority, especially running to and Jerry. Reinsdorf "sued", and this kind of thing made him particularly annoyed.

"Garr, isn't it because you don't listen to persuasion and are stubborn? As the Chicago Bulls' international scouting director, I can't afford to let one of your bad decisions affect the future of the Chicago Bulls as a whole! "Ivanka. Dukan also stalks his neck and Gal. Foreman yelled at him, "There may be a lot of people on the Bulls who are afraid of the general manager, but he's Ivanka. Dukan is by no means one of them. Because in terms of seniority, he is better than Garal. Foreman's seniority with the Bulls, coupled with his ability as a well-known scout, made it easy for him to find a job.

"I made the wrong decision???" Gal. Foreman shouted, "Don't you look at who is leading the revival in the new century?" Not me Gal. Foreman chose Derek. Rose, can the Bulls get to the top of the league so quickly? If you scouts had chosen Mayo, would the Bulls have seen hope for a revival? Ivanka. Dukan, let me tell you, don't think it's still the 90s, the New Century Bulls have come to this point, it's all my credit, not yours, you know??? ”

For Gal. Foreman's words, Ivanka. Dukan can't argue with it for the time being, because since choosing Derek. After Rose, the Bulls' record has indeed skyrocketed, from the eighth place in the East in the 2009-2010 season, to the first team in the league next season. And last season, at the age of 22, Rose also won the regular season MVP, becoming the youngest regular season MVP winner in NBA history. The emergence of these many achievements will be gal. Foreman's prestige rose to the sky, as if he had secured the position of the "new godfather" of the Bulls for a while. It was also from this time that Gal . . . Foreman began to close his eyes and listen, and gradually became more and more rigid and self-serving.

Truth be told, Ivanka. Dukan vs. Garr. Foreman's choice is still admired, after all, he was not so optimistic about this choice back then. It's a pity that it turns out that Gal. Foreman's decision is extremely wise, Rose not only integrated with the team very quickly, but also won the heavy personal honor of regular season MVP at a young age, plus last year's Bulls' regular season record topped the entire league, and suddenly titles such as "Rose is the next Michael" and "The Bulls dynasty is about to be revived" and so on swarmed, which also made the team owner Jerry. Reinsdorf v. Gal. Foreman's performance was unusually satisfying.

"Yes, Gal, I also admit your vision and professional ability, but you believe me, last year, our Bulls lost 1-4 in the Eastern Conference Finals, because of the poor protection of the interior line, as long as the team adds a Chinese hot, then the championship puzzle will be completely complete, maybe a new 'Bulls dynasty' may be created, you ......"

"I have to add another inside ???" Gal. Foreman didn't finish listening, and directly interrupted sharply: "Ivanka, I won't believe you just because of you!" ”

"For, why ???"

"Why? Ivanka, have you forgotten last year's playoffs? We played five games against Miami and we were always leading in rebounding except for the second game, but ...... What's the use of that? It's not the same as being beaten by Miami and being defenseless??? Looking at the entire Eastern Conference, we have only one imaginary enemy in the next few years, and that is the Miami Heat, which has the 'Big Three'. And if we want to win Miami, the most urgent thing for us is to strengthen the attack points and attack firepower on the outside, otherwise the tragedy of Derek being besieged and killed last year will be repeated, you know??? ”

Last year's fierce battle with Miami's "Big Three" East, one of the important reasons why the Bulls went out 1-4 quickly was the "sluggish" performance of the new MVP winner. Compared to the series scores of 27.6 and 29.8 in the first two rounds, Derrick Rose's performance in the Eastern Conference Finals can be called "Waterloo". In addition to the series average score per game dropped sharply to 23.4, the last four games were jointly encircled by "Zhan Huang" and "Flash", and the shooting rate of only 32.7% was also a key. Even if you add the first ball of the victory, Rose's shooting rate in the entire Eastern Conference Finals is only 35%, which is a little lower for a core that averages 24+ shots per game. So Gal. After carefully analyzing various data, Foreman decided that the main direction of recruitment in the new season is the outside line. He believes that as long as he can find 1~2 outside players who can help Rose share the defensive pressure, the Chicago Bulls can attack the Miami Heat, so as to rise to the sky and open a new era.

"Gal, according to last year's series, the peripheral firepower should indeed be strengthened, but the internal construction should not be less!" Ivanka. Dukan said: "Although our team's total rebounding in that series was overpowered by the opponent most of the time, but if you look at the blocking and help defense, the Miami Heat far surpassed us!" So I think that the strengthening of the internal line is also urgent! As a team that aims to win the championship, you must try your best to make up for any shortcomings, otherwise once you enter the vicious battle, it will be too late to regret it! ”

"Are you questioning my decision??? Ivanka, I'm telling you, as the general manager of a team, I think of a lot more than you scouts! You said to sign it? You say that reinforcement is reinforcement? What about salary space? What about the chemistry between the players? What about the pressure of the owners and fans? It's all about you!! That's why you can make decisions like this!! And I, as the general manager of the Bulls, I have my eyes on the three, five, or even ten years of the future of the Bulls, and who of you can understand the difficulty of this puzzle??? ”

"It's for the future of the Bulls that I advise you to sign him! If you think about it, the core members are extremely young, and I can guarantee that such a Bulls team will be competitive in the next 10 years! Moreover, since our team's imaginary opponents in recent years are all Miami, it is even more necessary to start from the inside, otherwise with the offensive and defensive capabilities of James and Wade, what can you find to be able to beat the outside? Only by starting from the inside and taking advantage of Miami's inside weakness can it be successful! ”

"What? A core member inside and outside? Oh my God, I heard you right, did I? You're saying to have an Asian as our Bulls' interior spine??? Ivanka !! I think you're old fool!! Do you think he is Yao Ming??? Even if it's Yao Ming, isn't he retiring because of injury??? In the next 10 years, I would like to ask you, the NBA has been born for so many years, but there has been an Asian who has played in the NBA for 10 years??? I tell you, not a single one! Not a single one!! The physical fitness of Asians is simply not enough to support the intensity of the NBA game, at most 4-5 years, the hidden danger of injuries will be aggravated year by year, even if such a player is a genius, who dares to choose??? One more Grant. Hill??? ”

"How do you know if it's hot? Besides, with his physical condition, is there a problem with getting a first-round contract??? I remember that the first-round ranking of our team this year is very low, anyway, we can't choose any good talents with this first-round right, so it's better to invest in it, in case it is earned in the future, it will be a profitable thing! ”

Gal. Foreman was annoyed by Ivanka, and couldn't help but shout: "Ivanka, are you the general manager of the Bulls or am I?" You have the right to give me advice and choices, but I also have the right to refuse and not to adopt, don't you understand this truth? Let me tell you, I have already had my own plans for the construction of the Bulls in the future, and I will definitely not accept your proposal! ”

"Okay, it's okay if you don't accept it, I'll go and talk to the boss directly!!" Ivanka. Dukan is uncompromising.

"Huh? Talk to the boss again? Ivanka, do you think I didn't expect you to do this? "Gal. Foreman sneered and said: "I have already discussed with the boss, all the decisions of the Bulls in the future need me to knock the hammer, and the boss has promised that I will not reach out to interfere, so, if you want to sue, go and sue, look at Jerry. Who will Mr. Reinsdorf choose to support!! ”

"You ......" Ivanka. Dukan roared angrily.

"What's wrong with me? Who told you not to be the general manager of the team? Want to fight me, who do you think you are??? "Gal. Foreman said, and said coldly: "Regarding this matter, I hope I will hear it for the last time, and if you mention this matter to me again in the future, I will definitely let Jerry. Mr. Reinsdorf dismisses you!! I hope you remember what I said!! Good bye!!! ”

"Want to fight me? You really think it's still Jerry. Klaus's time? After hanging up the phone, Gal. Foreman said with a sneer.

"But I heard that the old guy Klaus has recently made a comeback, whether it's true or not, I have to guard against it, after all, in this Bulls, his roots are too deep." Gal. Foreman lit a cigarette, took a puff and said, "So this Ivanka. Dukan, I don't think I need to stay longer. ”

"When the Bulls win the championship, he will be the first to leave."

Ivanka still didn't give up afterwards, but with Bulls owner Jerry. It was only after Reinsdorf spoke on the phone that he completely lost his thoughts.

"Ivanka, I know you're doing it for the good of the Chicago Bulls too, but Gal is right, he's the general manager of the Bulls right now, so I have to give his full support to his operations. And you can also see that through Gal's efforts, the Bulls are now thriving, and if I stand up and disagree with him at this time, wouldn't it be too disrespectful to him? So, I'm sorry, Ivanka, I've promised Gal about this, and I'm not going to meddle. ”
