Chapter 384: Player Recruitment Season

The NBA trade deadline is the 16th Thursday after the start of each season, after which NBA teams are not allowed to make any further trades until the start of the next season's draft, which means that this is the last chance for teams to recruit for the playoffs this season.

Usually, Tang Shuai would also know some rumors of alliance trade from Duffy, and the period before coming to Toronto was obviously the most rumored days of trade rumors.

In terms of time, the trade deadline of each year is shortly after the All-Star break, and this is obviously the perfect time to recruit players.

Tang Shuai also knew this, but he was still a little surprised when he saw the person who appeared in front of him.

The people in front of him turned out to be Celtics' general manager Danny Ainge and coach Brad Stevens.

"Don." Seeing that Tang Shuai was stunned, Duffy shouted at him softly.

"Hmm." Tang Shuai came back to his senses for a moment, got up and stretched out his hand to Anji with a smile, "Hello, Danny." ”

"Sit, it's fine." Anji smiled and shook Tang Shuai's hand, and then sat down with Stevens.

"Hello, Coach Brad." Tang Shuai then said to Stevens.

Stevens, the head coach of the Celtics, like Donovan, the head coach of the Thunder, jumped directly from college to the NBA as a head coach, unlike Donovan, he is young, only forty years old, and in just two years, he has brought the rebuilding Celtics to the current position of the East powerhouse, and is now competing with the Heat for the third place in the East.

Without a superstar card in his hand, he made the short Thomas an All-Star and had high morale. This is the charm of this young marshal that sets him apart.

Capable people are always respectable, and Tang Shuai is naturally polite to him.

"Hello. Don, nice to meet you. Stevens smiled handsomely. smiled and shook hands with Tang Shuai.

"Toronto has a really nice climate, it's much more comfortable than Boston, and it's a great place for an elderly person like me." Anji said with a smile as soon as she sat down.

"The scenery here is really pleasant, the whole venue is green, and it makes people feel like they don't want to leave when they come." Stevens also said.

"If you all say that, I think Marseille and Mr. Dwayne are going to be under pressure." Duffy said with a smile.

As soon as Duffy's words ended, Angie and Stevens couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Marseille Ujiri and Dwayne Casey are the general managers and head coaches of the Raptors.

"Boston is not as good as the scenery, but it is better than the history and heritage. Boston Co is much thicker than Toronto. Anji looked at Tang Shuai with a smile at this time and said.

"It's true that I didn't spend a long time in Boston, but Boston's Old North Church and Faneuil Hall are full of history, and Boston has the third largest Chinatown in the United States, which is always a very lively place." Stevens also said with a smile.

Angie and Stevens sang and harmonized, Tang Shuai of course heard what they said so much, it was nothing more than that Boston is a city with history, and the Celtics are also a team with history, and even Boston has a good Chinatown. It's all beautiful, come to Boston.

He turned his head to look at Duffy, and he was a little unhappy in his heart, it was supposed to be the season to recruit players in the All-Star. Although Boston's recruitment was somewhat unexpected, Duffy had to say hello to him beforehand, not like he was in front of him.

He was even a little suspicious that Duffy and Angie had some secrets in private that he didn't know.

"Don. I was good friends with David Booth, in fact, back when he went to China. I've asked him to bring back footage of you, you're a very talented player. Angie said at this time.

Tang Shuai turned his head when he heard Anji's words.

"We were ready to draft you back in the draft. You know we had multiple picks in the draft, two in the first round alone, but unfortunately our highest pick at the time was only 16 picks, and we could only watch you get cut off by the Clippers. Anji said with regret on her face.

Tang Shuai continued to listen, of course, he had been with Duffy for so long, and he also knew that the general manager's words must not be fully believed, with Anji's urine, it is estimated that at that time, at most, he would have prepared a draft pick at the end of the first round to select him, otherwise the rumors would have spread a long time ago.

"Boston is a team with a lot of history, and every time you look up at the dozen or so flags at the beginning, you feel a sense of pride that you're playing for a team of glory." Stevens also echoed at this time, the young marshal's face was sincere, and what he said sounded more infectious than Anji.

"Don, Boston is a very competitive team, you can see the quality of Coach Brad, and you have played against them, you can feel the tenacity and hard work of the team, and the most important thing is the opportunity, Boston has a good opportunity to develop." Duffy suddenly followed at this time.

"Jaime is right, I can make you a star like Isaiah." Stevens said with a smile.

Tang Shuai frowned slightly, Duffy's performance today was really a little abnormal, he said with a smile: "General Manager Danny, Coach Brad, I listened to what you said, I also think Boston is a very good team, but I am in a good situation in Los Angeles now, if I want to play in a different place in the future, I will consider Boston." ”

Anji's brows furrowed slightly, after all, he was the general manager of the team, and he came with the head coach of the team today, but he didn't expect Tang Shuai to say such perfunctory words in the end.

"Trade chips......" Duffy wanted to say.

"Jaime!" Tang Shuai glared back at him.

Duffy held back his words and looked at Tang Shuai a little stunned.

"Don, you have a point, but there's going to be an appreciation issue here, and as a coach, I appreciate you very much, because you've shown amazing progress in the last half season, I don't know if we'll have enough chips to trade you next season, and the fact that Los Angeles has CP3 is there, and it's very unlikely that you're going to be the core.

If, I'm just making an assumption, Los Angeles isn't willing to trade you out while you're improving, then you're probably going to spend four years in Los Angeles as a rookie, which shouldn't be a good thing for you? Stevens said abruptly on his feet.

After Stevens finished speaking, Tang Shuai fell into silence for a moment, compared to the false things that Anji said, Stevens's words were tempting to him.

He's got the packing system in hand, he's only going to get stronger, and if Los Angeles really doesn't want to let him go, and Paul is here, it's going to be difficult, if not impossible, for him to go further, just like Nash and Kidd did, and it's not a way to play shooting guard all the time with his height.

He thought for a while, and then said, "Coach Brad, I listened to what you said, can you give me some time to think?" ”

Hearing Tang Shuai's words, Stevens and Anji's faces suddenly showed a burst of joy, and they nodded again and again.
