Harden came in sleepily and looked at Howard, who was also dazed, "Dude, what are you dreaming about, you must not have dreamed that you are going to run here for a meeting in the middle of the night, right?" ”

Howard smiled wryly, "I didn't dream of the meeting, I dreamed that you just left the woman and got out of the bed"

Harden raised his hand and nodded at Howard "You have more than God knows"

"Okay, just the three of us" Morey invited Saifei away and brought him to the door, this conversation was obviously very boring, he even took his assistant away, Harden and Howard looked at each other, obviously there was a meeting at this time, and Saifei had to avoid suspicion, most of them were a little difficult to get along with McHale.

"Coach McHale.."

"Manager, he's been fired?" Harden immediately nervous, objectively speaking, he has a little opinion on McHale, he often complains to his friends that McHale did not protect him on the defensive end, he does not have the privilege of Maddie in the Rockets, let's put it bluntly, superstar defense plays soy sauce This kind of thing McHale can't bear, but McHale's system is the offensive starting point for the outside star, giving Harden the right to fire wirelessly, and the tactical blocking and dismantling has done a lot of inclined care for him, which is what he has dreamed of for a long time in the Thunder, so he will give McHale a score of 85, And it is not believed that the rocket will be able to find a replacement for him at the moment.

"Where, we didn't notify him to participate, it was because of his health, in addition, some of Coach McHale's views on the team's lineup are also a little different from the management" No one is stupid, Howard immediately understood, "In addition" is the key, and he vaguely felt that this matter had something to do with Wang Xiaoer, and sure enough.

"You know the salary situation of the team, whether Jones can succeed or not, I'm not sure now, another question comes" Morey shrugged his shoulders and gestured, I was not prepared.

"Wang Xiaoer?"

"You seem to be very close to him, Mr. Superman", Morey knows that Howard has an opinion about Jones and often blames him on the defensive end, while Wang Xiaoer's defense of Randolph's wild dog style makes Howard very useful.

"It's not just me, we all love him, and who doesn't love someone who defends desperately? Including Harden"

"Of course, let's go to a nightclub together" Harden echoed, he knew that Howard was going to pull himself into the gang, he had no choice, it was difficult to refute Superman's face, and he did think that Wang Xiaoer was very good.

The four words "desperately defending" are aimed at Jones's head again, Morey is not stupid, but Morey once thought that Howard was a big boy, stupid is completely wrong, two seasons of contact, the good side found that Howard is mature, serious, bad, he has become stubborn, of course, this may have something to do with the maturity in front, he is older, he wants to catch the tail of the peak, and wants a championship.

"A team has made an offer to Wang Xiaoer, according to NBA regulations, they don't have the right to contact Wang Xiaoer now, and my informant told me in advance"

"They? Not a team yet? Harden was a little surprised, he knew that Wang Xiaoer could play, but please only two games, plus less than 30 minutes of playing time, an Asian who lacks basic training and physical fitness, he thinks this has something to do with the NBA's salary cap adjustment next year.

"yes, not one, but that's not the point, it's about how do we deal with it, sign him, trade Jones, or? You say the team is yours."

Howard began to scold Morey in his heart again, "What are you doing with this bastard, it's better to have a direct showdown", there is no absolute star like LeBron James or Carmelo Anthony in the Rockets, LeBron is the manager, coach, and player, and Anthony's new contract has the right to veto transactions, these two have a lot of say in the team's lineup, and in the Rockets, the boss is still Morey.

"Coach, what do you want," Howard asked

Morey is not in a hurry to speak, he is looking at Harden, Howard is the spiritual leader on the Rockets, and Harden is the cornerstone of the team as he himself said. Harden pondered for a while, he knew that Howard was definitely on Wang Xiaoer's side, but he didn't want to follow Superman everywhere, which would jeopardize his right to speak on the team.

"Frankly, I'm out of ideas, I like the two of them, Jones can open up space on the offensive end, he can score, Wang, he's like Ibaka, needless to say, he's the most talented I've ever seen on the defensive end, of course behind Superman" said and grinned at Howard.

Listening to what Harden said, Morey's attitude was clear, after all, Harden was a peacemaker, "The management's opinion is to let Wang Xiaoer go and make every effort to keep Jones"

"But manager, even if Wang Xiaoer leaves, Jones may not be able to stay, you know, the price of this year's contract, there is still room for us" Morey guessed that Howard would jump out, and he had already figured out how to deal with it.

"That's right, we have enough space to keep Wang Xiaoer, but not necessarily Jones, if that, we will lose both of them, but I think, Jones has proven himself to be in the ranks of NBA starters, I know he is a little soft on the defensive end, but man, we need to be stable, we are almost touching the door of the finals, we can't take risks, and Wang Xiaoer, although the front performance is good, maybe like McHale said, the performance is very good, but, put the treasure in a.... Anyway, you know, with a player like that, there's a lot of risk."

"On the offensive end we added Lawson, but on the defensive end..."

"Man, I know what you're going to say, in the middle of the season, if the team can't handle Jones, we'll trade him for a defensive interior lineman, you're a privileged player for the team, and management will do their best to meet your demands, I promise, okay?"

It seems that the rice has been cooked, Howard no longer speaks, he no longer hides his loss, does not say hello, and saves polite words, gets up and walks towards the door, Harden wants to persuade him to come back, Morey stretches out his hand and motions to Harden to leave it alone, "I understand his feelings, give him space to digest"

But as soon as he arrived at the door, Howard suddenly turned around, "What if Wang Xiaoer doesn't leave?" ”

Harden was stunned, thinking, how can you ask such a stupid question

Morey really smiled, "The news I got is that other teams will give him at least a base salary of hundreds of thousands, do you think he will continue to take the Rockets' $30,000?" ”

Howard pursed his lips, unable to argue, he was sad for Wang Xiaoer, he knew that Wang Xiaoer loved the Rockets, the Rockets were the NBA to him, but at the same time he was happy for him, he finally proved that he belonged to this league, and more of his grievances for himself, thinking of Morey's promise when he joined, he walked to his car, sneered, sat in the car, and slammed the door "Hold Jones' data and die"
