And this is what shocked the management of each team!

In the history of the league, there has never been a player who has been designated for the next home!

Even though George has been the face of the Pacers for the past few years and has a close relationship with the team's recently resigned general manager, Larry Bird.

But the designation of the next family is really shaking the past and the present.

This is because it involves the rights and interests of both labor and management.

Designating a home means that even if other teams trade him, they will basically not be able to keep him after his contract ends next year.

This means that the trade value of this player will plummet, even for a player of George's level.

So from the perspective of management, this is absolutely undesirable, and it will open Pandora's box and attract more players to follow suit.

But there is no turning back from the bow, and it is irreversible that George has already done it.

Even so, there are still a number of teams that are starting to approach the Pacers in an attempt to trade for George.

After all, a star of George's level is hard to come by, and it would be good if he could exchange it for a year's right to use George at a small price.

In case, if George had a good time playing this year and renewed his contract with the team, it would have made a lot of money.

This kind of deal is also entirely possible, and George has designated his next home, and Pacers management will not go his way.

When Tang Tian learned the news, he was watching the sunrise with Olsen holding his two sons.

The sunrise by the sea and the sky are quite beautiful.

He watched the sunrise only to discover Demps's text messages and missed calls.

When he saw the content, he was stunned for a while.

George's request for a trade had happened in his previous life.

Because he's on the Pelicans in the West, the butterfly effect on the East side is less impactful.

Especially with the Pacers, who are not directly related, the lineup and his memory have not changed much.

So it's no surprise to him that George would apply for a deal and specify his next home.

But the problem is, the next home George should designate is the Lakers!

George's idol is Kobe Bryant, and Los Angeles is also his hometown, plus it's a big city.

Idol basketball + hometown basketball + metropolitan basketball, and the Lakers don't have stars now, almost the perfect place to go.

But now he tells him that George wants to come to New Orleans?

Learn from Durant's good example and come to the Pelicans as a three-leader, or even a four-in-command?

Or is it because he leans back like Kobe, but can give birth to a son than Kobe, so he turns to him as an idol?

These reasons ...... It doesn't seem to be reliable.

After the accident, Tang Tian thought about it carefully and seemed to understand a little.

George led the team to rank second in the East in the 13~14 season, and played with the Cavaliers to the Eastern Conference Finals, reaching the peak for a while.

At that time, he was not even 24 years old, and he had a chance to chase Durant and James, and his future was limitless.

But now that he's injured and the team is in a mess, he's about to retire as a first-list star, and he needs accolades and exposure to strengthen himself.

And the Pelicans are just missing a star-level No. 3 spot.

And thanks to Holiday on his contract (5 years, 75 million) and the growing salary cap, the Pelicans are more than capable of taking George and renewing his contract.

It's a big deal to trade Jokic for draft picks, Holiday + Tang Tian + George + Davis + whatever, this can already hang everything.

Just as he was thinking, Demps's call came again.

Tang Tian picked it up.

Demps was a little emotional.

For the first time in so many years, a star has offered to come to New Orleans.

You must know that the current team of the Pelicans, Davis and Jokic were selected by them, Tang Tian was a restricted free agent they won in a thrilling stunner, and Holiday was traded.

So it's no wonder that a player of George's level is coming, and he's not excited.

On the phone, Tang Tian did not show his attitude as before.

In his bones, he still doesn't like this kind of huddle basketball, even though George is an obvious upgrade of Ariza.

And the current lineup has a good tacit understanding, and it is not necessarily better to break.

To put it bluntly, George is a fully upgraded version of Ariza, but he may not be willing to do the same dirty work as Ariza, after all, he is also an All-Star.

And in terms of efficiency alone, George is also on the low side of the supergiant.

However, he did not object, this kind of transaction is obviously suitable for reinforcement, and it is good to leave it to the management to choose in the end.

Demps asked again and again, but Tang Tian still had this attitude.

This was also the first time Tang Tian had expressed his stance like this, and in the end, he couldn't do it, so he turned around and discussed it with the rest of the management.

After hanging up the phone, Tang Tian looked at the sun that had crossed the horizon, and it seemed that the Pelicans might also have big changes this offseason.

George's affair caused a stir in the league, but a star of this calibre, and who has never been designated before, will definitely continue to be bad for a while.

Until then, the draft has become more interesting.

Draft night is a high-risk day for trades, and no one knows if George will be traded at that time.

The draft picks were drawn during last season's Division Finals.

The 76ers, Kings, and Suns got the top three picks, and the Lakers, Magic, Timberwolves, Celtics, and Hornets got the 4~8 picks.

Among this year's rookies, Fultz and Tatum are the top picks.

In addition, Lonzo Ball, who was vigorously promoted by the ball father, also rose sharply, and there is a tendency to impact the champion.

According to previous reports from WOJ, if Ball falls to the fourth pick, then the Lakers will definitely pick him.

Time flies, and it's June 23rd.

Tang Tian and Olsen are also vacationing in the Caribbean, and the annual NBA Draft has kicked off in Brooklyn, New York.

Counting, this is the first time that Tang Tian has not gone to the draft since joining the Pelicans.

However, although he didn't go to the scene, Tang Tian still gave some potential candidates for the second round, and it depends on what the Pelicans can operate.

That night, the Brooklyn fans gathered and all eyes were on it.

In the small green room, green faces are waiting for a call from the NBA.

It is worth mentioning that this is also the first draft of the new president Tatum.

"Dell, what is the estimated order we can trade right now?"

The draft was about to begin, and Stevens asked Demps.

Because the Pelicans themselves only have a 60th pick, and they don't want to make big changes to the roster, they can only use marginal players like Forbes, or cash.

This trading movement is large and constant.

“44。”

Demps replied.

Stevens nodded, the candidates given by Tang Tian were almost between the 40~45 picks.

However, if the 44th pick, they can only choose that person.

Just as they were talking, Tatum walked out of the backstage with a smile on his face.

The 2017 NBA Draft is about to begin.
