Chapter 170: An Impossible Three Consecutive Victories
"Oops!" Lisi shook her head and said with some annoyance, "I forgot to tell the head coach about this." ”
Lisy didn't say it, but Monty was even more angry when she said it, good guy, you didn't remember me at all, you didn't discuss such a big deal with me, and you still put me as a coach in your eyes?
The more Monty thought about it, the more angry he became, so he simply sat on the sofa and snorted heavily, "General manager, you can explain this matter to me well!" ”
Lisi and Wang Meng glanced at each other, and both of them smiled.
"Don't worry, Monty, this deal is definitely a very good deal." Liz reassured.
"A good deal?!" Monty had just sat on the couch and immediately jumped up like a kangaroo when he heard this, "What kind of deal is this?" Trade Okafor and Ariza for Wallace and a piece of waste? It's okay to exchange this waste for a first-round pick, this waste has a salary of more than six million, and he doesn't even play a game, so he simply invites a god to offer. ”
"This." Wang Meng said curtly: "I can heal his injuries, not to mention more, it shouldn't be a big problem to restore his body to a healthy state." ”
"What if the body recovers? He's a shit? Monty scolded, froze suddenly, "Can you restore him to health?" ”
Wang Meng hesitated and nodded, "It seems to be possible." ”
"What are you kidding?" Monty categorically denied: "Auden's injury has been seen by most famous hospitals and councils in the United States, and it is of no help at all, there is nothing to be done in the entire American hospital, what can you do to cure his injury alone?" ”
Wang Meng's words Monty didn't believe it at all, the medical level of the United States has always been the top in the world, and even the top equipment and medical level of the United States can't make Auden recover, how can Wang Meng do it?
"It's hard to say, but I'm sure I can cure him." Wang Meng said confidently, for the emperor system, Wang Meng is completely assured, since what is it called an artifact medical kit said to be curable, then the possibility of being cured is very large, and it is worth taking such a risk.
"Honestly, I don't believe it." Monty shook his head, expressing his distrust of Wang Meng's words, but his tone had calmed down at this time, "But if you can really cure him, then we will make too much money." ”
Monty also knows that if Oden can play, even if he has entered his rookie stage and wasted five years of growth time, he will definitely be much better than the current Okafor, and even if Oden has been in the league for five years, he is only twenty-four years old now, and there is still a lot of potential and room for improvement. Don't forget, the deal also involves an All-Star small forward, Gerald Wallace.
Of course, this is all based on the fact that Wang Meng can cure him.
"So, I suggest that before I treat him, I should renew a long-term contract with him in advance, and in his current state, even if he is the champion, it is estimated that the contract that can be won is not large." Wang Meng said.
Liz thought for a while and said: "I think I can give him a contract of three million a year, he has only played in the league for five years now, and he can't carry out the Bird clause, so he can only sign for five years, three million a year for five years, do you think he is willing to sign?" ”
"If I were in the same state as him, I would definitely choose to sign." Wang Meng said. "Three million a year, signed for five years." Monty leaned back on the sofa and groaned, "If you can really cure his illness, it will be too profitable, even if it can't be cured, an annual salary of three million is not a small amount." ”
"Three million is at most one less role player, if you can really exchange for a future top center, I think it's worth it!" With a wave of her hand, Liz finally made up her mind.
'And Gerard Wallace, whose contract is expiring and a renewal is a problem.' Monty said: "Although Gerrard is thirty years old, according to his state and strength, it is estimated that he will have a contract of about 10 million. ”
"It's settled, Auden and Wallace are to stay." Liz said.
The matter was settled by the conspiracy of these three people.
On the 19th, the Hornets played at home against the Bobcats, at this time Okafor Ariza was gone, and the new Wallace was not included in the squad, and Oden didn't have to think about it at all.
The lineup was not neat, and in desperation, Monty let Gasol play a cameo role as the starting center, and then let Jason Smith start the power forward, Tony Allen was in the small forward position, Thorton rose from the sixth man to the point guard, and Wang Meng was still the starting point guard.
Fortunately, the Bobcats' roster is even more untidy, and Joe has always been willing to use the cheapest instead of the best, so that the Bobcats now don't even have an All-Star level player. In the past, when Larry Brown was in charge, he could still maintain a little iron-blooded defense, but now he has to defend without defense, and he has to attack without offense, which once again proves that Jordan only has a bullfork when the player plays.
In this game, the Hornets won again, winning their first three-game winning streak since the start of the game, and the Hornets fans almost didn't die of excitement, and finally won a game happily.
Wang Meng got another double-double in this game, with 28 points and 11 assists. Gasol had 18 points and 12 rebounds, and the starter Thorton unexpectedly showed great offensive ability, scoring 24 points. Tony Allen played for the Hornets for the first time, although he only scored 9 points, but his defensive ability is indeed very strong, Wang Meng was sideways, Wang Meng had a feeling that if Tony Allen was a little bigger, then it would be another Ci Shiping, and it was a Ci Shiping who would not have a convulsive brain and would not shoot at the three-point line.
Wallace, another who did not play, is also a defensive giant, and his style of play has always been known for his wild iron blood, and he once broke his head with Kobe Bryant to grab the ball, which shows how iron his playing style is.
It is conceivable that when Wallace can be on the court in the next game, then the Hornets will have two players on the court whose defensive ability is not weaker than Ci Shiping, and the style of play is also not weaker than Ci Shiping, which is a headache for many teams.
After the game, after the press conference, Monty also left the players, just to introduce Wallace and Oden, although they both play in the same league and everyone knows each other, but after all, this can bring the players closer to each other. After all, if nothing else, these two people will be the cornerstone of the Hornets in the future, Wallace needless to say, at least a three-in-command position, and if Oden is really cured, it will be even more important than Gasol in the future.
Wallace has always been a relatively low-key person, he doesn't like to grab the boss, he is kind, plays hard, and is a typical good player, while Oden is the champion, but he can't be proud if he wants to, he can't even play the game now, and where to go next season is a problem.
After the game, there was a press conference, the time was already past the early hours of the morning, and the players were not in much of a mood, and Monty announced his disbandment early when he saw this.
As the players left, Wang grabbed Oden.
