"Fortunately, I wasn't unlucky to fly!"

Liu Mang is now cautious, his energy is quite concentrated, and he is afraid of bad luck!

No, just arrived at the hotel, the rooms of other teammates are no problem at all, only Liu Mang's room, and the access control battery is dead......

I changed the room and haven't cleaned it yet......

In another room, the circuit is faulty......

It took a full half an hour for Liu Mang to get a room that was clean and fine.

Anthony invited Liu Mang to go out to the appointment, let Maddie take Josh Smith out to play, which made Iguodala so depressed, and moved two boxes of luggage, not to mention, when the boss came out to have a star to make an appointment to eat or something, he would follow Liu Mang to be a bodyguard, and now he can only play video games with Kwame Brown in the hotel......

Liu Mang tossed for a long time and finally could rest, so he didn't go out, in case he encountered something unlucky.

Liu Mang opened the laptop given by Dinah, fortunately the computer is fine, little Lori bless!

Liu Mang opened his mailbox to see the transaction details sent by the team.

Tony Allen and Ariza and Kevin Willis did not travel with the team today.

Because all three were traded.

Just in the morning, before the Eagles set off, Liu Mang saw Korver return and knew that the deal had been confirmed.

The Hawks sent $1.4 million in cash, Kevin Willis, Tony Allen, and Ariza, and got the 2006 second-round pick from the Knicks, the Celtics' 2006 first-round pick from the Spurs, the 2006 second-round pick from the Raptors, Walter McCarty, the veteran of the 96 golden generation from the Celtics, and Alonzo Mourning from the Raptors.

The Knicks sent Jackie Butler, a 2006 second-round pick and an undrafted pick in '04, to get Trevor Ariza from the Hawks.

The Celtics sent a 2006 first-round pick from the Spurs, a 2006 second-round pick from the Celtics themselves, Walter McCarty, who equaled Tony Allen's million-dollar salary, and Tony Allen from the Hawks.

The Raptors sent Alonzo Mourning, a 2006 second-round pick, a 2006 second-round pick from the Celtics, Jackie Butler and Kevin Willis from the Knicks, and $1.4 million in cash.

The Hawks completed a four-team trade.

With the space freed up by Kevin Willis, Tony Allen, Ariza, got Alonzo Mourning, and three draft picks!

The deal...... In terms of value, Liu Mang obviously felt that the team had lost.

But from the perspective of the team plan, it is correct, sometimes it is not a good thing that the talent is too overflowing, the 12-man squad is full of talent, but the talent outside the squad, it is not good to let them go out and have better development, and it is not a matter to play the development league every day.

Moreover, it also exchanged two draft picks that must be based on the previous round and one Spurs at most 278 picks, and when the rookie bonus of the past two years is eaten up, there will be a new rookie bonus.

Liu Mang feels that this is a healthy virtuous circle for the team.

For the Celtics, the Spurs' first round is completely chicken, they don't think they can pick many good players, this year they have several draft picks, and they also selected Al Jefferson and Delondy West, wasting 3 draft picks, and they are even less eye-catching in the second round.

The Knicks will not feel a loss if they exchange a second-round pick for an Ariza, even if they pick the first part of the second round, they may not be able to pick anyone, and the second round is completely a gamble of luck.

On the Raptors' side, it was originally a second-round round replacement, and they also got rid of Mourning's 4.9 million salary without paying for a buyout, and Jackie Butler's contract is non-guaranteed, and it can be cut directly before January, which is equivalent to saving millions of salaries, and the second-round draft picks drop a little, they don't care at all.

However, for Liu Mang and the Hawks, it is necessary for the second-round draft picks to improve the pick as much as possible.

The draft picks at the end of the first round and the second-round picks are actually not much different from those who can be selected, especially Liu Mang's upset selection method.

Generally speaking, if it is determined that there is a rookie with strength and future, the team prefers to use the last stage of the first round or the top pick of the second round, because it can be used for four years, and in the second round, it can also be signed for four years.

But the second-round pick is too low, people may not be happy, and they can refuse, the second-round draft is only a two-year contract, and the rookie contract of more than two years can be rejected by the second-round rookie, in this case, the team will either sign for two years, or give up, overseas players can also keep a few years of signing, but the American players are unfortunate.

For example, the future Chandler Parsons signed a four-year rookie contract with the Rockets, and when the opportunity to leave, Parsons left the Rockets without looking back.

And the contract at the end of the first round is about the same salary as the contract that emerged in the second round, and the rookies at the top of the second round don't have much opinion on signing players for four years, but if it's in the middle and late stages of the second round, it is estimated that they won't be happy, and they must still be happy to get a four-year contract when they don't play, but after they play out, they feel that they have earned less.

Even if the atmosphere of the Eagles team is good, Liu Mang doesn't want such a situation, he is not afraid of 10,000, he is afraid of what if, how can there be so much spare time and role players.

Liu Mang's idea of the future plan for the Eagles is very clear, the rookie bonus is a must-eat, non-team necessary personnel, the last year or two years of the rookie contract is traded, and the new draft pick is exchanged, then it is necessary to sign a four-year contract, which is not only cheap, but also easy to trade.

Boozer, for example, would not have been so generous with the Jazz if he hadn't had two years left on his rookie contract, even though the two teams have been friendly teams since two decades ago.

As for why you have to have a rookie bonus, of course it's cheap! Role players are not cheaper, where is Liu Mang's reason to ask for a big contract from the team......

And it can let these rookies experience the feeling of a strong team, and there is a great chance of winning the championship, Liu Mang feels that he is really great......

Now many teams don't understand this problem, but the Hawks management, who used the four-year bonus and trade bonus brought by Prince's and Boozer's two first-round late picks, began to quietly trade the draft picks in the middle and late second rounds, as much as possible, for the middle and early stage of the first round, and it would be better if they could be in the middle and late stages of the first round.

For the team, if it is really a player who wants to stay as a rotation, there is no difference between the mid-to-late first-round selection and the second-round selection, except for the salary difference of millions of dollars, especially for the Hawks.

……

After the trade, the Raptors announced the immediate release of Jackie Butler, with no penny spent and no guaranteed contract.

Then a $1.4 million buyout deal was reached with Kevin Willis, and Kevin Willis gave up his $1 million salary and was unwilling to go to Toronto, which was an agreement that had been reached before the trade, so the Hawks compensated $1.4 million to the Raptors.

After the details of the trade were announced, it was reasonable for Mourning to join the Hawks, and the Hawks surprised many people by trading two rookies to make room for Kevin Willis in order to get Mourning.

According to rumors, the Raptors are giving Mourning a chance to show his strength after his comeback, and Mourning will take the initiative to buy out the contract after finding a home, and the Raptors don't want to pay the rest of the salary.

But I didn't expect the Eagles to give up two rookies who looked like they had starting talent in order to get Mourning!

Although the Hawks got 3 draft picks, the Spurs' first round and two second rounds, people felt that the Eagles had lost a lot!

With so many first-round and second-round picks every year, how many rookies can match Tony Allen and Ariza?

The media unanimously believes that the Eagles have been pitted, but the evaluation is not very low, but I just feel that the Eagles have lost, after all, the Eagles have too many talented outside players.

Now there is a veteran Walter with many years of experience, mainly because of the Mourning to strengthen the Hawks' interior bench lineup.

In terms of player value, the Hawks must have lost money, and they should have signed Mourning directly with a base salary, but in terms of making the team structure better by the way, it is good for the stability of the Hawks' roster.

It's just that there are a lot of media outlets that don't understand, why are Tony Allen and Ariza traded? Calderon and Korver, it doesn't look like they have a future.

Originally, the Hawks coaching staff planned to let Tony Allen and Ariza try it out in the regular season, and the two did play well, and even both were more talented than Korver, who had no other talent than three-point shooting and help defense, while Ariza and Tony Allen both had the potential to be defensive powerhouses.

But Iguodala also has the potential to be a defensive gatekeeper and has even more talent, and Calderon's playmaking during Maddy's break is not comparable to the two.

The most important thing is that Liu Mang and the two are not so close, which is the key for the coach and the boss to choose to trade the two.

In fact, Liu Mang's attitude is the most critical.

The coaching staff is right to train the newcomers, let the two rookies go to the development league to have the opportunity to hone in the actual battle, and when they return to the home field to train, the two are called back to train with the main team, the method is right, but the emotional factor is ignored.

As a result, Tony Allen and Ariza, two rookies who had performed better than Korver's sophomore in their rookie years, were dropped.

"Not-familiar" means that we are not familiar with it.

As soon as these two words came out of Liu Mang's mouth, owner Price confirmed that he wanted to trade the two for draft picks, and also determined that the two might start a wandering career.

Liu Mang is still a little reluctant to Tony Allen and Ariza, after all, these two are still playing after more than ten years, and they are still the main force, if he can, he hopes to keep these people.

But there are too many outside lines in the team, even if they play small ball, there are too many, and these two people are only talented, and they have to be slowly cultivated, and they have cultivated players with obvious advantages and disadvantages, and they are not as good as Korver who can adapt to any system.

Another point is that Korver went to the Development League to practice, and his three-point ability can be practiced better, but Tony Allen and Ariza, the strongest of the two is defensive talent, and the Development League has no defense at all, and the two are still disliked by their teammates in the Development League, and the offensive means are too poor.

The most important key reason is that sentence, Liu Mang is not familiar with them.

However, now, Liu Mang is even more excited about Mo Ning's joining!

After reading the details of the transaction, Liu Mang immediately went to Kwame Brown, who was playing the game, and asked Kwame Brown to call Moning.

Liu Mang feels that Maddie takes care of the "children" like a "mother" on the court, and he has to take care of the team in terms of off-field transactions and recruitment.

Sometimes a stupid owner, the disadvantage is that there is no decent trading method, but the advantage is that if the core of the team shows this talent, they are more compliant.

Steven Price is the standard type of boss, if it weren't for Liu Mang, he estimated that he would be abandoned by the family in a short time, the Eagles are part of a multi-family business, and he was originally the second generation of the rich man who was assigned to this "small" industry of hundreds of millions of dollars.

Liu Mang looked at Kwame-Brown for a long time before he reacted to say hello to his seniors first, he was so tired! He treats this high school student as a teammate, but he has to plan their careers like "Dad......
