Chapter 106 Digging the Foot of the Wall

Jerry. The place where West met Cao Jian was a local restaurant in Memphis.

When Cao Jian came, Jerry. West is already waiting.

Seeing Cao Jian arrive, Jerry. West also stood up from his seat, he was so enthusiastic that Cao Jian was a little embarrassed.

Jerry. Who is West?

Fans who know the NBA should know it, and if not, everyone should always know the NBA logo. The original form of the logo is West himself.

Being able to be summoned by West himself shows that this player is not simple. In particular, West is also known for his insight in the whole league, which shows the weight of Cao Jian in West's heart.

West, as the general manager of the Grizzlies, has a lot of work at hand, and he can find time out of his busy schedule to invite Cao Jian to dinner, which is enough to look up to Cao Jian.

Under West's guidance, Cao Jian also did it, and Cao Jian didn't figure out the purpose of West's invitation to dinner this time, and he didn't put down his chopsticks.

Seeing Cao Jian so restrained, West also smiled, "Cao, relax, just be as calm as you cast a lore." ”

Hearing this, Cao Jian was also extremely surprised and asked, "Have you also watched that game?" ”

When West heard Cao Jian's words, he also laughed and said, "Cao, isn't it normal for me to watch that game?" Would you be surprised if I said I watched all of your games? And I forgot to tell you that I'm a fan of yours and that you attract me when you play. ”

Hear the words. Cao Jian was also very surprised, and behind the surprise, there was more stealing. Who is West. Others don't know, but he knows very well, don't look at West, he is not amazing, but he has the reputation of "Godfather of the Lakers", and he knows people's eyes, but he is first-class. The people who can get his favor have achieved good results in the league.

And, he added. He is his own fan, and Cao Jianyan can not be happy.

Isn't life in the world just to gain the recognition of others and gain a sense of existence?

"You're surprised?" West asked.

Cao Jian did not answer. That's tantamount to acquiescence.

Said that Cao Jian was not surprised. That must be a fake.

"Actually, from the first game I watched, I felt like you were going to do wonders in the league. It's a wonderful feeling, I can't describe it, I can't explain it, but it's always there, it's real. ”

West is genuinely authentic.

West's words. Cao Jian was embarrassed to say it, but. His heart seemed to be filled with honey, he was very happy, very happy, he really wanted to reply, Jerry, you are really good at talking.

Although he was very happy in his heart, Cao Jian was still very calm on the surface, and thanked him with a smile: "Thank you." ”

Seeing Cao Jian's performance, secretly, West also nodded and gave a humble evaluation. Cao Jian's performance like this also made him more optimistic about Cao Jian.

Cao Jian was worried just now, it was not superfluous, and it was not without purpose for West to let him come.

After testing Cao Jian, he also dragged the topic to the Grizzlies, "What do you think of the Grizzlies this season?" ”

West asked, this was also the action on the hand of Cao Jian, who was eating, paused slightly, and said perfunctorily, "Not bad, very good." ”

"Is it that you Chinese are particularly reserved?"

West asked.

Cao Jian didn't say it, which also means that he acquiesced. In addition, he really doesn't have the habit of saying bad things in front of others.

Cao Jian didn't say anything, West spoke at this time, "Our Grizzlies now have a lot of soldiers, whether it is inside or outside, there are people, even in the west where there are strong teams, we are extremely competitive, I dare to say that, in the West Division, the current Grizzlies except for the Lakers and Spurs, we can beat any team, it's not that I blow, I dare to say that, it's also because our Grizzlies really don't confirm it." ”

"On the inside, we have Paul. Gasol, Paul, don't think he's a Spaniard, you can underestimate him, his scoring ability is in the position of power forward, I think now in the league, Garnett can surpass him, he can be on par with the Mavericks' Germans. As for his rebounding ability, he averaged 12.3 rebounds per game, which is already the best proof of this. In this way, the inside line can be called a high-quality inside line in the league. ”

Cao Jian also agrees with West's words, in fact, he also thinks that West has said less, Gasol is actually an inside line who is very good at passing, and he has the ability to respond to the inside line, but he is a must in the league. Cao Jian clearly remembers that the reason why the Lakers were able to rise rapidly in the previous life was that Paul was traded with the Lakers. Gasol is inextricably linked.

Seeing that Cao Jian didn't speak, West continued: "In addition to Paul, we also have Lorenzen on the Grizzly Bears. Wright, although he has a bad temper and is very hot, but he really has two hits, we have him and Gasol on the inside, which is in the whole league, except for the Lakers' O'Neal and Malone, we are still very competitive, in the interior of this area. As for whether or not you knights can be, I think it's a very obvious thing. ”

Lorenzen. Wright is not very clear about how this player is performing, but he has heard a little about him being shot, but this is also a matter of 2010, and it is still far from now?

"In addition to the inside, we have James up front. With the above three defenders, Posey's defense on the inside will definitely not be a problem. ”

James. Bo Xi, Cao Jian was not impressed.

Paul. Gasol went to the Lakers in his first year, teamed up with the emperor superstar Kobe, and reached the Western Conference finals in the first year, but he returned home in the Western Conference, why did the Lakers fail, the Lakers' overall performance was not one. Posey also played a crucial role in Kobe's defense.

After that series, James . Posey is also known as the "Kobe Bryant Terminator".

Being able to be called "Kobe Bryant's Terminator" shows that he has strong defensive ability.

Cao Jian also thought of it. What will it be like when the Cavaliers face the Grizzlies, James vs. James, and can LeBron cross Posey?

Yes. That's it. No, this is a big problem for the Cavaliers, and for him, winning the Cavaliers away is a big problem.

"And on the back line, we have Mike. Miller is a steady three-point shooter, which can open up enough space for the inside. That's where we come in. ”

I heard that, West said. Cao Jian is also faintly worried about the Cavaliers' next game against the Grizzlies.

West said that this is all Cao Jian's concern, the battle against the Grizzlies. This is the most important task of the task, and if it is completed, then the task is equivalent to completing most of it, and it will not be completed. That Cao Jian's previous efforts. It's going to be all in vain, and it's not something to be taken lightly.

But how exactly can this be solved?

Cao Jian couldn't think of a way, and at this time, West spoke again, "Cao, that's it, I won't continue to hide it." Let me tell you so. The Grizzlies are just missing a point guard right now. Or a leader, a core. A core player who can drive this bunch of players, and I think you're the core, you're the leader, and if you come to the Grizzlies, the Grizzlies have a complete roster. You are the most important piece of our championship puzzle that is missing. ”

Speaking of this, West also became excited, and his speed of speech also became very fast, looking at Cao Jian's eyes, they were also full of eagerness.

Hearing that, West said this, if Cao Jian was not excited in his heart, it was absolutely impossible, but he quickly calmed down.

Based on the experience of his previous life, Cao Jian remembers that it is Jason who is now the Grizzlies' point guard. Williams, Cao Jian is no stranger to this guy who plays streetball.

Jason. Williams also called it "white chocolate", with such a loud nickname, it is difficult for Cao Jian to forget. The nickname is very loud, not because he is really awesome and tired, he is well-known by the fans, it is completely because of his brilliant ball skills, and nothing else.

Moreover, Cao Jian still vaguely remembers that this season's Jason. Williams seems to be on the verge of falling out with the Grizzlies and is about to change owners.

After such a fuss, Jason. Williams has also been on the bench several times, and it's no wonder that West will talk to him about it, because the Grizzlies really have no one at point guard.

Of course, West's finding of Cao Jian is not all because there is no one on the Grizzlies guard line.

West looked further.

What he thought of was that if the Grizzlies want to win the championship, then they must have the core and superstars, although the current Cavaliers lineup is also very good, it looks good on the surface, it is necessary to have an inside line, an outside line, and the bench lineup is also powerful enough, but for West, who intends to win the championship, this is not enough, not enough.

Looking at the league in the past few years, the team that won the championship, that team, does not have superstars, not far away, just near.

Lakers' O'Neal, Bulls' Michael. Jordan, Spurs, Duncan, etc., all of them.

The current Grizzlies are still a piece of loose sand, and if there is no superstar to mix, let alone win the championship, it will be difficult even in the Western Conference finals.

So, as the manager of the Grizzlies, he is also desperate to find a superstar to sit in.

But where do superstars come from?

First trade, second draft.

It's true to trade a trade, but who would want to trade their own superstar?

It's simply not possible, if, without the right chips.

Second draft.

In the draft, the Grizzlies didn't have a good pick.

These two paths, for West, are dead ends.

However, West is very human, he can often think of methods that others can't think of, think of strategies that others can't think of, and his methods can be summed up in three words, digging the wall!

Yes, that's right, digging into the wall.

West invited Cao Jian over this time, just to dig Cao Jian over.

"Cao, we really need you. And I think it's good for you. West continued.

At this time, Cao Jian also understood West's purpose for letting him come here, and he felt that this guy wanted to come over and dig himself.

Because, he has a system task in the knight that has not been completed, and it is definitely impossible to leave, but he still wants to hear West's opinion, and asked, "How do you say this?" ”

Hearing this, Cao Jian asked, West faintly felt that there was a play, and said: "I know that there is a saying in China, that one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers, and this sentence is used on you, it is very appropriate." ”

Cao Jian also motioned for West to continue.

"The Cavaliers were at the beginning of the season, oh no, after they got the No. 1 pick, I think their goals were pretty clear. Rebuild around LeBron. ”

Cao Jian had already known about this, nodded his head, and agreed.

"And your appearance, this is a variable for the knights, now the knights' high-level people who have brains in the stool, may not think that there is anything about this, in fact, this is not to blame them, not everyone has my vision, I can foresee, Cao, you can become comparable to LeBron's existence, or even stronger. Don't ask me why, I don't know, that's how I feel, but my damn feeling is really accurate, it's right every time. This feeling also made me discover Kobe. ”

West said that Cao Jian did not think about it, he also thought about it, but he did not find the answer. System tasks are tying him up, and there are contracts, and it's useless to think about more.

Cao Jian chose silence again.

"When you grow up to be comparable to LeBron, just imagine, who will the Cavaliers keep, it will definitely not be you Cao, LeBron is a local, has countless fans in the local area, if it were me, I would also choose LeBron, and when the time comes, you will definitely be abandoned. If you know you're going to be abandoned, why do you choose where to waste your time? Come on Grizzly Bears. Come Grizzly Bears. Together, we build a dynasty. ”

West deserves the reputation of "godfather", and he speaks in a set, if he doesn't have the experience of his previous life and the rules of the system, Cao Jian may really be moved by him.

However, fortunately, Cao Jian has both.

"Jerry, what you said is very exciting and reasonable, but I still choose to stay with the Knights. As for where to go, I'll wait until the contract ends, or if the Cavaliers really want to trade away. It's not too early, and I think I'm going back first. ”

After speaking, Cao Jian also got up and prepared to leave.

Cao Jian was leaving, and West was also in a hurry, so he also stood up and said to Cao Jian: "Cao, don't you really think about it?" Come to the Grizzlies, the value is definitely greater than if you stay in the Cavaliers, the Grizzlies play, tactics, and all revolve around you, you are a superstar, not the current second-in-command. ”

"Thank you. I know. ”

"Cao Jian, have you really decided?"

"Hmm. I decided. ”

"You'll regret it."

"What about regrets? I'm still young. ”

Cao Jian's words also made West vomit blood directly. (To be continued......)
