Chapter 263: I can't make it up
Wang Mingming smiled dumbly, picked up the coffee that Cole handed over, and took a sip gently.
Cole smiled, and then talked about something on the court.
"I think the relationship between Xu Yong and you is very good, he is a good athlete." Cole praised Xu Yong, which made Wang Ming very happy after listening to it, no matter how he said it, they were all compatriots, not to mention that there was already a good relationship between him and Xu Yong.
Wang Ming nodded, "I was surprised by Xu Yong's progress, I didn't expect him to be able to master such excellent offensive skills now. ”
"It's all because he's a good kid who loves to learn and works hard." Cole seemed to recall something, and said with a smile: "When I introduced Xu Yong, the 14th pick in the first round, others still think that I wasted the first-round pick, after all, although Xu Yong may enter the lotto, but before the draft, the prediction pick has actually fallen to the middle and lower reaches of the first round." ”
Cole asked curiously, "Wang, if Xu Yong falls to the 23rd pick in the first round, will you choose him?" ”
"Of course, why not?"
Wang Ming raised his eyebrows, this assumption was of little substance.
Kerr complimented Wang Mingming: "I admire the operation of your draft conference very much, you traded out the core players of the team in the draft, and traded Chris Bosh, the super interior of the 03 golden generation, and after that, you only have Kidd and Artest joined, otherwise, only with the original lineup of the Kings, these two heavyweight players will not join easily." ”
"Yes, that's right." A hint of surprise flashed in Wang Mingming's eyes, Cole's analysis was not wrong at all, this is a cause and effect relationship, there are only two in one.
"You guys are ruthless enough today, we lost to you, but we lost three in a row." Cole remembered today's game and smiled wryly.
Wang Tomorrow smiled and put down the coffee.
The two talked a few more inconsequential words, and then Cole offered his advice.
"King, I want to trade with the Kings."
Oh?
What kind of deal?
Colle paused, as if thinking about how to organize the language, and then said: "Wang, I want to consult your team, Francisco Garcia's trade, if we Suns want to get Garcia, I don't know what kind of chips to pay?" ”
Francisco Garcia?
Wang Tomorrow was taken aback, but he didn't expect Cole to target him.
However, after thinking about it, he understood that Garcia now has the temperament of becoming the best sixth man of the Kings team, during this time, under the intentional arrangement of Wang Tomorrow, Garcia played more than 25 minutes per game, averaged 12 points per game, and had a scary three-point shooting rate, and was the most stable shooter on the outside of the Kings.
Now, Cole has come to the door.
It's just that Wang Mingming is slightly puzzled,
"You already have so many shooters, do you still need shooters on the outside?"
Cole was stunned, heard Wang's doubts, hesitated, and explained, "Wang, I won't tell you a secret. Although we have a lot of shooters, none of the wing players are star players, and Jason Richardson is okay, but now he will not play more than 30 minutes on the Suns, and on the wings, in addition to Richardson, Grant Hill and Xu Yong, we do need a qualified rotation player. ”
"Xu Yong has improved a lot, and he has now developed two skills, one is a pull-up jump shot, and the other is a three-threat breakthrough, and the first step is amazingly fast and extremely fast."
"As long as you can get Garcia, apart from the starters, Robin, Xu Yong and Goran Dragic, you can pick and choose any other players." Cole said with a smile.
Wang Mingming secretly scolded in his heart what bullshit to pick at will, the Suns have traded everything they can trade in the past two years, and those who have made achievements in the draft are Xu Yong and Goran Dragic who was traded from the Spurs, Robin Lopez is only slightly showing some potential as a seven-foot man, what really has trade value is the main player, if the main players are not traded, the rest will be a little interesting with draft picks.
But how could Wang easily trade the in-form Garcia for a draft pick tomorrow?
"I'm afraid it's a bit difficult for you to make this deal."
Wang Tomorrow pondered and told the truth.
"Steve, I need an inside player to supplement the team's interior line, Garcia's trade value is high, in the market, it's not just you who make a trade request, I won't trade him without satisfactory conditions."
Wang tosses the ball back to Steve Cole tomorrow.
It's actually a bit tricky, and then Wang talked about Robin Lopez, the young center with the 15th pick last year, who served as a backup center for the Suns.
Kerr immediately shook his head, what kind of joke, although Lopez plays very average, and his interior skills are still very rough, but after all, he is a seven-foot man with excellent athleticism, which is worth cultivating, Garcia is just an instant force that can help the team improve its strength, and it will not be of much help to the team's future development.
Then I can't talk about it, Kerr won't give the players that King wants tomorrow, and all Kerr can give is players outside the rotation lineup such as Tyler Griffin and Jeron Collins, and the two can't get together chips.
After chatting for a long time and nothing came of it, Wang got up tomorrow to say goodbye.
Kerr is also helpless, Kerr is willing to add next year's draft pick, but Wang doesn't want it tomorrow.
Cole sends King out of the arena tomorrow.
As soon as he stepped out of the stadium, Xu Yong drove his car and rolled down the window at the door, "Coach, let's go, please have supper." ”
Wang Tomorrow smiled, this guy.
As an athlete, Xu Yong's diet is very restrained and regular, and many things cannot be eaten, and the night snack in the United States is actually some high-calorie food.
Xu Yong mainly looked for Wang Mingming to catch up with the past, and seeing Wang Mingming was like seeing relatives.
.......
The next day, the Kings returned home to face the Heat back-to-back.
The Heat are ferocious, Eric Spoelstra only needs 8 people in the rotation, and the 8th man, James Jones, only plays 9 minutes, which is very short.
Wade played 43 minutes and finished with 41 points, five rebounds and 10 assists, in addition to one steal and four blocks.
Wade had a high possession rate during this period, surpassing the team's point guard, Mario Chalmers.
Chalmers is more of a pitcher with the ball over the half, and the team's tactical initiation point and final endpoint are Wade.
So Wade's data is particularly explosive, averaging 30.2 points, 5 rebounds and 7.5 assists per game last season, "30+7" This is a data that no other scoring guard has ever played except Michael Jordan and Allen Iverson, Kobe, Maddy, and Carter have never had.
The Kings lost 105-112 at home to the Miami Heat, their first loss of December.
