Early the next morning, Wang Meng called Lisi early.

"Trade with the Trail Blazers." Wang Meng said very bluntly, "The trade requirements are that we send Ariza Okafor, and 14 years of first-round picks, trade Wallace and Reg Oden, Wallace has an annual salary of 12 million, and Oden has an annual salary of 6.53 million, which is exactly a match with Ariza plus Okafor, and it can be completely relieved." ”

"Reg Oden? Are you crazy? "Lisi hadn't woken up yet, but Wang Meng's sentence directly woke her up." What is he doing with the deal? One waste is not as useful as those two soy sauces. ”

"Trust me, it's definitely a great deal." Wang Meng couldn't hide his excitement in his words, "I can cure Auden's illness, do you believe it?" ”

"Don't joke with my mother!" Lisi rolled her eyes and said angrily: "The Pioneer boss is so rich, the medical equipment is the best, and I haven't cured Auden for five years, why did you cure him as a basketball player?" I don't want to trade a piece of waste and be laughed at as a fool, an idiot manager. ”

"I can definitely cure it." Wang Meng said categorically: "You have to believe me, trade him, and then I cure him, and we will have a lineup of me, Tony Allen, Gerard Wallace, Pau Gasol and healthy Reg Oden, and this starting lineup will be fully qualified." As long as we wait to sign a few free agents as substitutes, our lineup will be perfect, and we can completely challenge for the playoff championship. ”

"But," Liz hesitated, "what if you can't cure it?" ”

Wang Meng was stunned suddenly, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

Yes, I know it can be cured, but do others know? If it can't be cured, what should Liz do? She doesn't have any special relationship with her, just ordinary friends, and this team is still her father's, not Lis's. Liz is already taking care of herself because of Taylor's relationship, can she let her take such a risk?

Wang Meng was silent.

I couldn't hear Wang Meng's voice, and Lisi was a little embarrassed.

"Wang Meng, otherwise I'll bring it up like this, even if it can't be cured, anyway, the team owner is my father, at most I will be scolded, it's not a big deal." Liz said, "That's it, I'm going to talk to the Trail Blazers uniform team today, okay, bye-bye." ”

"Liz." Wang Meng opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but the phone receiver was already busy.

On the other hand, Liz hung up the phone, but sat on the bed and was stunned.

She was a little confused, why did she do this?

At the beginning, her father wanted to buy a baseball team, but she insisted on buying a basketball team, and she had to be the general manager herself, for what? Just Wang Meng's huge potential and the Chinese market behind him? Just to make money?

Lis's mind was back with Taylor's shadow.

Taylor and her are good sisters, and she knows very well that she helps Wang Meng in this way, not just because Taylor likes Wang Meng, it's so simple.

But why exactly?

"Don't think about it!" Liz shook her head violently, as if trying to shake all the thoughts out of her head. "Go and close the deal first, then talk about anything else!"

On January 16, 12, U.S. time, the Hornets and the Grizzlies made a trade, and the Hornets sent Belinelli and a second-round pick in '13 in exchange for the Grizzlies' defensive stalwart Tony Allen.

It wasn't a big deal, but the two players involved were both starters for their respective teams and were tepid.

On January 17, the Hornets faced the Rockets, although the Hornets can't deal with teams like the Celtics and Lakers, but it is still very easy and enjoyable to abuse the Rockets, even if the Rockets' record is better than the Hornets.

Wang Meng scored 23 points and dished out 13 assists to lead the Hornets to a two-game winning streak over the Rockets. Boosted the team's win to five.

Tony Allen immediately became a starter when he came to the team, starting against the Rockets as a shooting guard, and the Rockets' top scorer Kevin Martin was very uncomfortable defended by Allen, although he also scored 22 points in the game, but he shot 8 of 26.

On January 18, the Hornets made another deal.

The Hornets sent starting center Okafor, small forward Ariza, and a 14-year first-round pick, All-Star small forward Gerard Wallace in a trade from the Trail Blazers, and Reg Oden in '07.

The deal was easily done, and as the general manager of the team, he naturally knew what the state of his team's players was, and Oden's fifth operation was unsuccessful, and he still didn't get better. It's been five years, and the general manager can't stand it anymore, he was going to lay off Oden before the trade deadline, but now someone uses Oden as a trading chip, and he naturally can't ask for it. And so the deal was struck.

This deal seems to be the Trail Blazers taking advantage, what the Trail Blazers have been lacking is an interior line that can grab rebounds and play a strong offensive under the basket, Aldridge is very good, but the overall style of play is soft, not a strong interior line, and Okafor is very qualified, because he has no other offensive ability except for the basket.

Now that center forwards are so scarce, Okafor is also a fragrant bun, and it is completely reliable to exchange Wallace for it.

Many experts believe that the Hornets are a big failure to use Oden as an add-on, and replacing it with Camby or other players is also better than Oden.

Anyway, the deal has been made and the player will be in the team the next day.

Monty was a little stunned, he didn't expect the general manager to make such a deal, it was obviously a cheat. This general manager, other managers will discuss the transaction with the head coach, this girl is good, she will trade directly without making a sound, and trade to Auden such a living fairy, what's the matter? Ready to fight the world with cripples?

When Monty ran to the general manager's office angrily, he found Wang Meng sitting opposite the beautiful general manager, drinking coffee in an orderly manner.

"Wang Meng, did you find it too?" Monty suddenly felt that he had one more ally, and he was more sure to denounce the general manager.

"Looking for it?" Wang Meng listened to Monty's words and was a little confused.

"That's right." Monty said angrily: "General manager, what kind of deal do you say you are doing?" What did Oden do in exchange? What's the use of asking him? Look, even Wang Meng can't stand it and comes to talk to you, which shows how stupid your trading choices are! ”

"Rub!" Wang Meng rolled his eyes, and almost didn't squirt out a sip of coffee.

The head coach of feelings is here to crusade against Lis.
