Chapter 171: The legendary center of the Chinese team

The blind old man is none other than Gordon Gunder, the current owner of the Cavaliers, who suffers from retinitis pigmentosa, and his vision deteriorates in the 60s, and he became blind in the 70s.

His home is in New Jersey, relatively close to New York, and although he can't see it, he still came to the All-Star scene to join in the fun. Unexpectedly, Big Z, who was sold by the Cavaliers, won the MVP of the rookie game, which suddenly made his mood extremely bad.

This season, he has heard the Big Z news too many times, and the Cavaliers have repeatedly played a ridiculed role in these news!

Is it tolerable or unbearable!

"Alas!" Wayne Embury sighed.

This black man next to Gordon Gund is the first African-American general manager in NBA history, and it is he who managed the former Cavaliers into the current Eastern powerhouse, and won the league's best general manager award in 92. Last summer, he traded for SuperSonics star power forward Sean Kemp, which made all Cavaliers fans chant for the manager's wisdom!

But this wisest and wisest black man in the whole league was blinded by the pecking of geese all day long. In the transaction of Big Z, he was put on the spot by Li Wei!

"Hateful! Boss, in fact, I don't want to make this trade at all in the summer, I plan, even if I want to trade, I have to wait for the big Z injury to heal, and see how it goes, anyway, the summer is very long. ”

Gordon Gund said: "But you made a deal before the draft and sent away our rookie who could grow into an All-Star center!" ”

After a pause, Gordon Gund added: "I remember you said that fans only know to look at the current ability of the player, but our management can't be so blind, a player's growth potential is its biggest selling point!" With such a potential newcomer, why did you sell it? ”

"Yes, I was wrong." Wayne Embury shook his head helplessly, "But you also know that at that time, Big Z had been injured for a year, and no one could say what the recovery would be, and whether the Europeans could adapt to American basketball was also a matter of concern for everyone."

The chips given by the other party are Cells plus McCarty, both potential newcomers and instant combat power, too good value, I'm afraid I miss it, and there will be no such a good price in the future! ”

"Alas!" Gordon Gund tugged on his sunglasses again.

In fact, Wayne Embrey can't really be blamed for this, he knows how treacherous his general manager is.

If the Knicks could hesitate a little longer at that time and negotiate with them for two more days, it would be great to keep the price down!

As long as it can be delayed for two more days, and Big Z dismantles the plaster, they can test Big Z's strength, and then kill and not trade!

But on the contrary, the Knicks agreed to their conditions, and the huge temptation was in front of them, and they nodded in confusion!

What a misstep into a thousand hatreds!

That head coach of the Knicks is a fool!

"Wayne, we must be calm when doing business in the future, like the big Z transaction, even if it seems to be profitable on the surface, we can delay it for two more days. I remember when the deal was done, Big Z was only two days away from removing the plaster, and we could have undone that mistake. ”

"You're right." Wayne Embury nodded, but he didn't think so.

Two more days of delay, to put it lightly, what if the Knicks regret it?

Once the Knicks repent, where else can this kind of business of exchanging a sick number for two starter-level players?

It wasn't an equivalent trade at the time, but the Cavaliers made a big profit!

The boss also applauded when the deal was reached, but now he is doing hindsight!

However, Embury also knows that this deal is still not an equivalent transaction, and the knights have changed from a big profit to a loss-making party, and the boss is not happy, so he has to listen to what he says!

As a working boy, he must have the consciousness of carrying a black pot!

The management of the Cavaliers was mourning, but Li Wei happily took his family and took a photo with a celebrity!

The star of Li Wei's first group photo is the fierce general of the Bayi team, and also the soul of the national team, this person's tall figure has made countless foreigners look up, and countless opponents have no choice, foreign reporters call it "China's Great Wall"!

This legendary center of China is also the first person in the Chinese basketball world to play in the United States, for various reasons, this person is no longer young when he came to the United States, and his performance in the American professional basketball world has not met the expectations of the Chinese people, but as a pioneer, she has opened up the way for future generations!

Speaking of which, everyone must have guessed who she is. That's right, she is the center of the Los Angeles Sparks, Zheng Haixia!

"Siqi, it's Aunt Zheng!" Li Weidao.

Xie Siqi said obediently: "Aunt Zheng, hello! ”

Zheng Haixia said happily: "Hello, children! Mr. Li, is this your daughter? What a good job! ”

Li Wei said: "That's right, she is my own daughter, we look alike, right?" ”

Zheng Haixia nodded and said, "Like, it's that she looks taller than you!" ”

Li Wei smiled: "Sister Zheng, you can make your height even half of mine." ”

Zheng Haixia laughed and said, "I also want to even half of you, so that I can become an ordinary girl." ”

After taking a photo with Zheng Haixia, Li Wei told her that if she encountered any difficulties in the United States, she could call at any time, and when she turned around, she went to find another star.

"Tim, as the peerless pride of the 97 generation, we have to take a photo!"

Tim Duncan didn't play in the rookie game today and just sat in the audience to watch. Now that the rookie game is over, several reporters are pulling him for a photo.

Hearing Li Wei's words, Duncan still maintained a sluggish expression, and said lightly: "OK!" ”

Li Weidao: "Let me introduce you, this is my eldest daughter Sylvia, second daughter Xie Siqi, and third daughter Gigi Tse." Cui Rong, hug Gigi for me, you can also take a group photo! ”

Xia Cuirong didn't have the consciousness of chasing stars, shook her head and said, "No need, I'll just take pictures of you." ”

With a click, the peerless double pride in ninety-seven years, as well as Li Wei's three daughters, were frozen in one photo.

Many years later, countless people will pick up this photo and laugh and say, "It turns out that Coach Li was so short at the beginning!" ”

"Tracy!" After taking a photo with Duncan, Li Wei went to chase Maddie again.

McGrady didn't expect Li Wei to come over and take a photo with him, and he was a little surprised.

As a gifted high school student and this year's No. 9 rookie, Maddie has been having a terrible season this season. Raptors head coach Darnell Walker has lamented many times that Maddie can't adapt to this league at all!

He was selected for the Eastern Rookie Team, not because of his good performance, but because this rookie was too bad!

The current rookie challenge does not have later sophomores, all first-year players, and there are two teams, so you can imagine how low the selection criteria are!

As the worst member of the rookie team in the East, Maddie also played the shortest playing time in the game. That's right, the two teams in the East and West combined, Maddie played the shortest time, and his performance was also mediocre with 4 of 7 shots!

He only graduated from high school and didn't even go to college, so there are so many things to learn, and the Raptors, as a new team to the league, are full of newcomers, people are disheartened, and there is no one to help him, this season is like a nightmare!

"Tracy, I'm sure you're going to be a superstar. Come on, have a laugh! Li Wei said.

"Thank you!" Maddie smiled reluctantly, and at the same time thought to herself, "It's a pity that he is not my head coach, if only my head coach said the same!" ”
