The SuperSonics are still very ambitious, but Lewis has not entered the management's field of vision, the current star of the team is "Glove" Payton, the second leader is the not very good style but still maintains a considerable level of Wen Baker, and even the 15th pick in the first round in 1995 guard Brent Barry has a higher status in the team than Lewis.

In the face of the 76ers' purchase, supersonic is naturally indispensable, but they still subconsciously want to ask for a little more in return. After a lot of back-and-forth, the 76ers sent swingman Billy Owens and second-off center Stanley Roberts to get their backup power forward Rashad Lewis from the SuperSonics.

After the deal was exposed by the pervasive media, many people thought that the 76ers had lost a lot, although Lewis's stats were better, but Owens and Roberts were both first-round picks in 1991, among which Owens was still a probe, and their experience was relatively richer, which naturally brought more help to the SuperSonics.

Chang Wei was the only one in his office who was ecstatic, and no one should have been able to see Lewis's achievements in the future. Although this guy is not good at physical confrontation and rebounding as an interior lineman, now that the 76ers have Mutombo as an interior barrier, it doesn't matter if Lewis can hold up the court on the inside.

What's more, as Chang Wei said before, Lewis's presence can help his teammates empty the inside, and the opponent's power forward will either shrink inside and let him shoot unscrupulously on the outside, or go to the high post to defend, forcing the 76ers' smaller players to open up space to break through. It looks a lot like Colorado's big tactics, but Lewis is a more professional projection power forward than West, and it definitely makes a lot more powerful when he puts the tactics on it.

After the transfer market opened, the 76ers submitted the trade request to the league as soon as possible. Looking at the 76ers' trade application, the white-haired Stern frowned slightly, he thought carefully for a while, and signed his name very carefully. In his opinion, Mutombo's deal is not to the point of upsetting the balance of the league, let alone the Lewis trade, and now that the Lakers are dominant, it is not bad to have a team in the East that can compete with them.

When the league officially announced these two trades, 76ers fans rushed to tell each other, they finally looked forward to a star who could bring more help to Philadelphia's son Iverson, and the most important thing is that this guy can not occupy the ball, but also protect the basket, it is really a perfect match for the 76ers and Iverson. Although players such as Kukoc and Ratliff were sent in order to get Mutombo, everyone thought it was worth it, and the team's interior height was also a leap forward.

As for Lewis's trade, fans quickly split into two factions, with some believing that Lewis' shooting could give the team more offensive firepower, while others insisted that Lewis was a soft guy who always liked to float on the outside, and his presence would make the team's interior line porous. But everyone thinks Lewis will have to sit on the bench and wait for his chance this season, and they don't believe the young high school player can replace Teylon Hill.

Lewis, who had come to Philadelphia to report in advance, naturally heard these rumors, which made him feel a little depressed. Although he is only a second-round pick, he also has a heart that wants to be the main force, but now even the fans don't recognize him, so what's the point? Lewis felt very lost, everything here is new to him, let's take it one step at a time!

Chang Wei hadn't had time to meet Lewis yet, but he knew that Lewis was not in a good mood. Although the system does not reach level 5, it unlocks some interesting little features, one of which is the ability to reflect the mood of the players with arrows of different colors. The red rising arrow is happy, the green falling arrow is low, and the yellow horizontal arrow is not in a bad mood, and now that Lewis has become a member of the 76ers, Chang Wei can naturally see his mood.

However, Chang Wei didn't plan to chat with Lewis, because he had long known that Lewis had a weakness in his psychology, that is, he was not confident. Of course, not being confident does not mean inferiority, Lewis just doesn't believe in his own ability and doesn't dare to go head-to-head with his opponents, which is one of the reasons why he almost wore the bench at the supersonic speed in the first two seasons of his career.

As long as he can see his progress and defeat his opponent in the game, the knot will naturally be untied, so there is no need to untie it in advance. In fact, this is also one of the manifestations of Chang Wei's fear of trouble, he has never been willing to spend more effort on things that can be easily solved, so he is unwilling to be a head coach, and the assistant coach is already the ultimate he can bear.

And Chang Wei also believes that Brown will make proper arrangements. While Brown single-handedly built that hard-blooded Pistons in his previous life and branded himself as a defensive guru, that doesn't mean he won't use offensive players. Of course, Lewis has to show enough quality or Brown will definitely put him on the bench.

Therefore, for Chang Wei, instead of dealing with Lewis in advance now, it is better to let the system formulate a targeted training plan, so that Lewis can grow to the peak level of his previous life as soon as possible, perhaps much stronger than in his previous life. Besides, the team has started to invite promising rookies to try out, and it's more fun to hang out around the arena.

There is no limit to the number of rookies a team can invite, but everyone will send out invitations based on the rookie's market and their own draft picks. If you only have a second-round pick and you want to invite the top pick to try out, then someone else will definitely show you what it means to be a hot face and a cold ass, and the media will laugh at you for not being able to do it.

The 76ers now have two draft picks, one is their first-round No. 20 pick and the other is the second-round pick No. 40 from the Hawks. Chang Wei is already planning to suggest to Brown that he use the No. 40 pick to draft Reed, but before that, he still has to invite him to try out, in case Reed becomes a parallel commodity because of his rebirth, he can prepare in advance.

As for the No. 20 pick in the first round, Chang Wei is not ready to recommend what player Brown chooses, in the 2000 draft, there are only a few outstanding people, and they are all high picks except Reed, although the 76ers now have Iverson and Mutombo, they don't need a No. 3 star, but it's not bad to be able to pick good role players.
