July 7, Time Warner Center in Charlotte.

At the entrance to the underground parking lot, Mark Stein showed the parking sign that the lynx had given him temporarily, and then, with the roar of the motor, he drove directly into the underground parking lot.

Stopping the car, Mark Stein soon saw a lot of acquaintances.

"Hey, Mark, you're here too?"

Mark Stein turned his head and saw Sam Amik, one of whom was the top card of ESPN and the other was the top card of USA Today.

"You've been notified by the bobcats too?" Mark Stein asked, turning his head.

Sam Amik nodded, "That's right, not only me, but also Lukwein and Shams Charania. ”

When Lukovine was the lead reporter for Sports Illustrated and Shams Charania was the lead reporter for Yahoo Sports, Sam Amik said this, and Max Stein immediately felt the difference.

"This press conference of the Bobcat is a bit big." Mark Stein muttered a few words, then asked, "Did you hear any gossip?" Sam? ”

"Not at all." Sam Amik shook his head.

Then Marc Stein remembered Adrian Wonarowski, the journalist who gradually made a name for himself at Hoop Sports and was always the most active during the transfer period.

"Adrian must know something inside!"

……

In the infield of the press conference at the Time Warner Center, when Chris Paul and Qiao Hai both appeared on the scene, the reporters in the audience felt more and more that this press conference was not simple.

A table was placed in front of the large poster for the press conference, and four seats were also given, with Joe Hai occupying one, Chris Paul occupying one, and Kevin Pritchard also occupying one, and one empty.

The press conference was even more unusual.

Qiao Hai sat down on the right side of the middle, and the microphone was pushed in front of him.

Facing about 70 reporters at the scene, Qiao Hai knocked on the microphone, and after making a knocking sound, he laughed and announced, "Okay, the press conference begins." ”

"There are a lot of people here today, all of them are acquaintances, and they should have come." Qiao Hai was like a small talk, first let out a sigh, looking like he wanted to make some laughs.

But the reporters on the scene were not in the mood to laugh, only a small number of reporters cooperated with a few sneers, and all the reporters on the scene were waiting for the real protagonist of this press conference to appear.

……

"Adrian, what should you know?" Mark Stein found the god of wo in the corner, gritted his teeth and asked.

Wo Shen spread his hands and shrugged, not revealing inside information at all.

However, as Qiao Hai on the stage was talking, Mark Stein found that Woshen took out his mobile phone, which seemed to have opened the Facebook interface, and seemed to be editing something.

Mark Stein pretended not to see it, tilted his head, squinted his eyes, and stared at Woshen.

As Woshen typed a long paragraph, Max Stein immediately stretched his neck and rushed over to take a peek, but Woshen chose to send it in a flash of lightning!

Then, Max Stein only saw a "sent successful" prompt, and saw nothing!

Makstein was in a hurry, and he didn't care about Woshen's triumphant smile, he immediately took out his mobile phone, opened Facebook, and then found Woshen's homepage......

But at this time, Qiao Hai announced: "Now, we are invited to be the protagonist of this press conference!" Appearances! ”

Bang Bang Bang!

Kevin Pritchard applauded first, and then there was a round of applause, and all the reporters with cameras also pointed their cameras at the entrance of the press conference for the first time.

At this moment, however, Mark Stein suddenly shouted, "I found it!" Kevin Garnett! It's Kevin Garnett! ”

But just as he was shouting, Kevin Garnett was already at the entrance of the press conference and strode into the scene.

……

The scene was already in an uproar, and no one expected that the Bobcat would actually make a big news, this is Kevin Garnett!

Although Kevin Garnett did not win an MVP trophy as he did in history because of Yao Ming's sudden rise, Garnett has been one of the league's best superstars in the past few seasons, and he is at the same level as Tim Duncan, Kobe Bryant, Maddy, etc.

Kevin Garnett, who has received countless honors and accolades, suddenly appeared in Charlotte, and it looks like he is going to join the Bobcats!

"Oh my God, this is going to be a trade that will shake the entire league!"

Some of the reporters at the scene were already shocked and speechless, and the scene was chaotic, with all kinds of noisy surprises and discussions, as well as the sound of cameras taking pictures.

Qiao Hai has already made an announcement: "We announced that we have traded Kevin Garnett from the Minnesota Timberwolves in a trade, and Kevin will play alongside us in the new season!" ”

Kevin Garnett then showed off his No. 21 jersey and the press conference moved to the final stage, which was the Q&A session.

One of the questions that all reporters are most concerned about is what kind of chips the Bobcats used to get Kevin Garnett, and why the Timberwolves let Kevin Garnett go, which is not scientific!

For several questions that reporters are most concerned about, Qiao Hai answered them one by one.

"It was a three-way deal, and we sent Gerard Wallace, More, Williams and Bryan Skinner, as well as the Celtics' first-round picks in '07 and '09, the Cavaliers' first-round pick in '07, and Kevin Garnett from the Timberwolves."

"Can you tell us about the other two sides of the deal?"

"No problem, the Timberwolves sent Kevin Garnett, got Gerard Wallace, Bryan Skinner, the Cavaliers' Drew Gooden and three first-round picks, and the Cavaliers sent Drew Gooden and got Mo Williams."

"The Timberwolves are willing to let Kevin go, the reason, I can only say, Mr. Glenn Taylor is a good person, Mr. Kevin McHale is also a good person, you can ask them for specific reasons, I believe they will give you a satisfactory answer."

"What do you think of Gerard Wallace?"

"Gerrard is a good player, he deserves a starting spot, so we sent him away and he's going to be a starter at the Timberwolves."

"We gave away three first-rounders, and it was worth it, even if we gave away all the first-round picks we have, I would think it was worth it!"

"Will the Celtics' first-round pick be a lotto? I don't care, as long as I can get Kevin, it's worth it! ”

In the end, Qiao Hai agreed with one of the reporters: "Yes, you're right, this deal will change the landscape of the league!" In next year's playoffs, we have the ability to do it to the Rockets once! ”

……

After the press conference, the headlines in all the media in North America were-

"Shocking trade, three Bobcats plus three first-round picks in exchange for Kevin Garnett!"

Or—

"The wolf king has changed hands, and the pattern of the alliance has changed!"
