Twenty-fifth episode Wang Xiaoer or Jones
In the past two days, there has been something that has been bothering Wang Xiaoer, and several influential basketball websites in China have contacted him, hoping to do an interview before his 10-day contract expires, and most of them promised heavy commissions, but Wang Xiaoer has no time to take care of it, the NBA's regular training makes him tired, and he has to train his physical fitness and strength, and this information is piled up.

He didn't know anything else, but he definitely didn't want to deal with a certain wave, and after the game against the Grizzlies, he saw that a certain wave was killing him again, "7 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 block, only 12 minutes, what else do you want Jones to do?!" In all fairness, this is quite embarrassing, when Yi Jianlian was there, "slashed 4 points and picked 2 boards", "8 points in the half, he only smiled slightly, and he has won the trust of the coach" This kind of title is also commonplace.
The media is like a mosquito, if there is blood, it will bite, Luo Guo reacted to Wang Xiaoer, someone suddenly came in to find him when he was concentrating on appreciating the A movie, and asked him if he was very familiar with Wang Xiaoer, Luo Guo said that he looked at the serious clothes worn by these people, holding a briefcase, maybe it was a judicial mouth, guessing if it was Wang Xiaoer's pimping a few years ago, and then pursued it, and refused "I broke off my friendship early, if you don't mention it, I can't remember his name"
As soon as Wang Xiaoer heard it, he got it, and he still pondered about letting him help contact him to do an interview, no play, changed the topic and asked if the jersey and shoes were sold, Luo Guo told him that it was long gone, and he didn't move any money, and he would give it to him when Wang Xiaoer returned to China, which is one of Luo Guo's few advantages, he is not rich, and sometimes he is more poor than Wang Xiaoer, but he is righteous to his friends and refuses to take advantage of his friends, "Luo Guo, listen, this money is all yours"
"No, you wait a minute. What the I.."
"Don't it first, the went out to buy groceries, you listen to his father first, okay?!" Wang Xiaoer expected that Luo Guo would be crooked, and he was richer now, but he didn't have so much time.
"Becoming what you say"
"We're buddies, when I can't sell my jerseys and sneakers, I don't go to rub your food, now I'm not rich, but that money is my little meaning, don't you talk to me?!"
"Your sister, don't you mention a meal between friends? Now that you have a little money, why do you have to talk first? I'm crooked, what's wrong with me? I'll take half of this money."
"Your sister, are you hypocritical? What do you mean to take half? ”
"I'll transfer the half to you, if you dare to turn it around, I'll send it to Xue Manman, by the way, she took the jersey, I didn't ask for money, she had to give it, Lao Tzu said cruelly"
Wang Xiaoer was nervous when he heard it, the cruel words Luo Guo said were not ordinary ruthless, and they were all with a bit of 2B mood.
"Brother, what are you doing again?"
"If you dare to put money to me again, Lao Tzu will do it! You say, it works, she."
Wang Xiaoer couldn't stand it anymore, and replied, "I'll grass your second uncle" and hung up the phone directly. I don't know why, but a thought suddenly popped up in my head: "Let Xue Manman help me deal with the interview?" However, he muttered that looking at people's dresses on weekdays, it is estimated that there is no shortage of money, but this is not a matter of money, why are you looking for people, he can't tell, he began to believe Luo Guo's words a little, is it that he thinks about people on weekdays, and feels guilty?
At this time, the team flew back to Houston to prepare for back-to-back games, and the next game they faced the Mavericks, an opponent they were familiar with, and to be honest, Monta Alice was even more unscrupulous, Nowitzki, if he really went violent, you can't prevent it.
McHale left the coaching work to the assistant coach, and he came to Morey's office, as soon as he entered the door, Morey motioned to Saifei in the room to "give us some space alone", Saifei went out and closed the door, McHale realized that not only did he want to find Morey, but Morey was also looking for him, smiled and said, "I'm in the right place at the right time again, right?" ”
"Your judgment is still accurate," the typical Morey answer
"So let's get straight to the point, how do we deal with Jones's problem? Coach, I want to start by saying that I don't blame you, you're the head coach, it's your right to make rotational adjustments, and the win over the Grizzlies shows you're right, I just want to hear your thoughts on where the team is headed."
"Do we have room to keep him, no, and you know that kid doesn't defend, right?" McHale understands Morey's business strategy, and he's not going to be saddled with a luxury tax for a player like Jones.
"We can't look at the problem statically, right, a team that can only impact the championship will make players willing to take a pay cut to join"
"So do you think Jones' defense belongs to a championship team?"
"We joined Lawson, isn't that enough? We made it to the Western Conference Finals last year, maybe it's a bit of a pride to say that, but if we meet the Cavaliers without Irving and without Love, we can win the championship" McHale understands that Morey is a conservative, and he wants to use his current roster to attack the championship, see if Jones is willing to take a pay cut at that time, and if not, use his starters to brush up the offensive data, and also change to a better draft pick.
McHale didn't want to go around the bush anymore, he shifted his gaze from staring at the table and looked directly at Morey, "Let's make it clear, I'm not a conservative, especially on the road to the championship, Wang Xiaoer has the defense to keep the team close to the finals, I want to put the treasure on him, as for Jones, let him go, I will give him time, but I can't trust his defense at a critical time, if I were you, I would replace him now"
This was a little cold, a little sharp, Morey didn't respond immediately after hearing it, he lowered his head and thought about it, and said slowly, "I watched that Asian game, I agree that he is a better defensive player than Jones, but the few goals he scored on the offensive end, I can't tell, you are more professional than me in basketball, I think it's very different, do you think he is better than Jones, an Asian who has never played professionally, better than the NBA orthodox players we have trained for two years?" ”
"Defensively, Jones is not willing, you know this, and second, he is a problem of size, he has soft lower limbs and no strength, I admit that he is very mature on the offensive end; Let's talk about Wang Xiaoer again, first of all, I hope you can remember his name, an Asian name is not respectful"
"I accept your opinion, I remember that his name is Wang Xiaoer"
"Wang Xiaoer's enthusiasm on the defensive end is Russell level, of course I don't mean level, but his level is also very high, just need to strengthen the upper body strength, you should go and observe him up close, in just a few days, he has a strong circle, his limb structure is perfect, he is a player who can get fat, the strength of the lower limbs is excellent, bounce, bounce, speed, card position, these are OK"
"Honestly, management saw this, and we were about to give him a second day job," said Morey, pulling out a contract from his desk and motioning to McHale, I didn't lie to you.
"It's not a short-term job, I want the team to sign him!"
"But what about his offense, coach, the big man of 207, the gorgeous face frame singles, do you think it is reliable? A lot of people say it's form ball, and don't forget that Canberra sometimes plays a lot like Howard! Morey was polite, but the skeptical attitude was there.
"I'm not sure he'll be able to continue that form on the offensive end, and honestly, if he can, then congratulations to the team for getting Amare . Ibaka"
"Who?!"
"Stoudemire on the offensive end, Sergi on the defensive end. Ibaka"
Morey grinned and put the contract back on the table, his hands spread flat on the table, and McHale knew that he was going to make a closing remarks.
"So, we're not sure about the continuity of his game, trust me, if he can continue, we're definitely going to keep him, and that's why we can't give up on Jones, and I hope we can agree and keep it for the time being, how's that?"
"You're the general manager," McHale said unhurriedly and left the office.
