Chapter 394: Pistons Five Tigers?

Chang Wei didn't use the latest features of the system first, he knew that at this stage, the Pistons' future championship-winning lineup had begun to be gradually formed, and it would be great if it could follow the trend of history. Of course, he didn't plan to copy it all, and he didn't like it very much like Rashid Wallace, and taking technical fouls was like eating and drinking.

If I'm not mistaken, it was in this summer that three of the Pistons' five Tigers — Billups, Hamilton and Prince — came to pitch and laid the foundation for the Pistons to win the championship. In Chang Wei's impression, Billups signed directly as a free agent, so he only needs to send someone to contact him in time, and the other two people need to think carefully.

In fact, Hamilton has now made a name for himself with the Wizards, and he came to Motor City because he was put into a deal for Stackhouse, and he was a little uncomfortable when he first arrived. As for "Little Prince" Prince, he was drafted by the Pistons with the No. 23 pick this year in his previous life, and eventually became the most reliable outside defensive leader of the Pistons Five Tigers.

However, this time, Chang Wei did not plan to bring in reinforcements step by step. Forget about Prince, the No. 23 pick in the Pistons' hand actually didn't pick any particularly good players this year, and 2002 was not a big year for the draft. If you continue to go down, there are All-Star power forwards like Boozer to choose from, but Chang Wei is very unhappy with his betrayal of the Cavaliers in his previous life, and Boozer's style of play may not be appreciated by Brown, unless there is a high pick player in front of him, then choosing Prince with the 23rd pick should be the safest decision, don't worry about this guy smashing in his hands.

But should you trade it directly with Starkerhouse? Chang Wei felt a little difficult to choose. Although Stackhouse didn't play as a top star in the league until the end, at least at this stage he can be considered a top-five shooting guard, and Chang Wei is still eager to see Stackhouse play on his team. As for his injuries in the 03-04 season in his previous life? Is it okay to have yourself there? Injuries are never on Chang Wei's radar.

The reason why the Pistons reached a deal with the Wizards in the first place was largely because Jordan wanted his North Carolina junior Starkerhouse to go to the Wizards as the team's boss, and it can be said that he was a little thirsty for Stackhouse. And it's a big six-man deal, with the Wizards sending Hamilton, Hubert Davis and Bobby Simmons to Stackhouse, Cardinal and Varda from the Pistons. Obviously, the Pistons' two additions weren't a big deal, but they got Bobby Simmons as a good role player. Well, in his previous life, the piston convulsions cut him, and Chang Wei would not make such a mistake.

Now Chang Wei's idea is to knock out some useful assets from the Wizards, anyway, Hubert, who started 17 games for them, can be sent, and Jordan may agree to other additions. However, what is more difficult is that the Wizards do not have draft picks this year, Chang Wei can only try to find it from the Wizards' player list, judging from the future development trajectory of the Wizards, he does not expect to find a future star player at all, as long as a strong role player.

This really allowed Chang Wei to find a guy who was much better than Hubert, in fact, this is also an old acquaintance, Chang Wei had already met with him when he was still in Villanova. The fellow Jordan's junior is Brandon Haywood, a big center in North Carolina. Although Haywood is not the league's top interior player, it is definitely not a bad guy to play as the Wizards' starting center in the Arenas era, and then win a championship as Nowitzki's interior partner.

The only question is, Jordan seems to have a North Carolina alumni collecting fetish, will he let Heywood go?

Suddenly, Chang Wei's eyes lit up, and it was time to use the system's trading simulator to make a wave of predictions. It is important to know that the simulator of the system is much more advanced than 2K, it evaluates the chips of both sides of the trade and then gives a score (on a percentage scale), the higher the score the higher the probability that the trade will be successful. In order to make a reference, Chang Wei decided to put the final trade chips of the Wizards and Pistons in his previous life first, and see how many points the system would give to this conclusive deal.

Unsurprisingly, the system gave the deal a high score of 95, which means that initiating the deal is sure to get the parties on the same page, if nothing else. Chang Wei didn't hesitate to replace Hubert with Haywood, and a few seconds later, the system happily gave his own rating - 87 points, and it was clear that the deal was also fully conclusive.

Although the Pistons now have Big Ben, the league's top defensive center, it would be good to get Haywood in the Stackhouse trade, which could make him the first backup center to hold up the court when Big Ben is off the bench. You know, this is an addition to the trade, and getting Haywood is a lot of money for the Pistons, okay?

If everything goes according to the original trajectory, then the Wizards should soon ask the Pistons for Stackhouse, and then they just need to convince Brown to trade Hubert for Haywood. The current general manager of the Pistons is Joe Dumas, and I believe he will not be interested in such a small detail as a trade head, and Hubert and Haywood are no different for him.

Next is the most important power forward position, and it was in the 2003 offseason that the Pistons brought in "Roaring Heaven" Wallace to build an iron-blooded team and successfully snatch the championship from the Lakers. Chang Wei has never denied that Wallace's style can boost the morale of the team in the game, but his fiery temper and penchant for technical fouls can cause headaches for every head coach, and Chang Wei wants to bring in another power forward with a similar style if he can.

There aren't many good power forwards in the league right now, and the two No.21s in the West, Garnett and Duncan, are good examples, but the Pistons obviously can't get them from the Timberwolves or the Spurs unless the management of those two teams goes down the line overnight. In addition, the likes of Webb, McDies and even the 76ers' veteran Ratliff are also considered good No. 4 positions, but Chang Wei still hopes to find a player with a similar style of play to Roar Tianzun.

At this time, a name suddenly flashed in Chang Wei's mind, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a smile, how could he forget this person? The most talented of the first players he trained after his rebirth, 1997 star Tim Thomas, the only thing to think about was how to get the Bucks to let him go.
