Canada, Toronto, just like the cold winter in Toronto, basketball here has also entered the cold winter, perhaps for Canadian fans, as long as the team in Vancouver does not enter the cold winter, then Canadian basketball is still spring, they don't care about what Toronto doesn't care about either, and they don't care about the Raptors.

In an apartment in Toronto, two young people were sitting together in silence, and there was no communication between them, and their faces seemed to be full of thoughts.

"Tracy, are you sure where your next stop is?" Antoine Jamison looked at Maddie with a lost face and said, escaping from Toronto, this is also his dream, this is a nightmare for any young player who has a pursuit, he hates it here as much as Maddie, but when he saw Maddie leave, he found that his heart was empty, Jamison and Maddy are two young players with a hard future for the Raptors, and the two are also very good friends. The mixed feelings of this really made the young player uncomfortable.

"I don't know, I don't know anything now" Maddie looked at his good friend and was stunned for a moment and then shook his head, and finally Zhuang Fei's shadow actually appeared in his mind, and there was also the big battle between the Timberwolves and the Spurs last season, in Maddy's heart, he may follow Zhuang Fei, joining the Timberwolves is his best choice, but now he can't be the master, the Raptors will definitely consider it as a profit maximum, as for Maddy's feelings, who cares?

"Antoine. I'm sorry, we used to say we would go together, but now I can't" Maddie looked at the lost Jamison and said gloomily, and Jamison shook his head with a wry smile, he didn't blame Maddie. If he were to be him, he would have such a choice. If a player wants to reject a team, it needs capital, not all players have this kind of capital, and Jamison doesn't have that kind of capital right now. As a friend, Jamison was happy with Maddie's choice.

It's hard to want a pure friendship in the NBA. There are too many entanglements of interests in this, but there is no doubt that these two young people are definitely the purest kind of friends, in the two years of the Raptors, Jamison and Maddie have been together from the bench to the main force, and then from the main force to the core, and the two encourage each other. Growing up together and experiencing so many things. And the personalities of the two are also very compatible, and neither of them has the idea of fighting for control of the team.

"Tracy, I heard the team is moving to Memphis next season, and maybe I'll have a fresh start there. And after you're gone, I'm the one who has the final say on this team, and I'm the only boss" Looking at Maddie, who had been frowning, Jamison pretended to be happy and patted his chest, which looked funny, but Maddie couldn't laugh at all now.

"Tracy. You don't want to be like this, okay, now you should be happy, laugh a" Jamison also put away the funny just now. Her face showed sadness again, and even tears welled up in her eyes, seeing Jamison like this, Maddie finally smiled, but the smile was more ugly than the crying.

"Thank you, Antoine. You'll always be my friend," and finally the two best friends, whose eyes were already moist, just hugged each other.

This is the NBA, there are reunions and separations. No one can want to get everything for themselves, and if they want to get something, then they have to pay something

The Raptors are in contact with Zhuang Fei and the Timberwolves, but they certainly won't put a basket of eggs in one basket, and in addition to the Timberwolves, they have also contacted other teams, such as the Celtics and Lakers. …,

Recently, Pitino has been very sad, life at the Celtics is too difficult, although he is a native of Boston, but now the fans here have regarded him as an enemy, and he has completely lost the enthusiasm he had when he became the owner.

Do you think that you were also a hegemon in the NCAA back then, and you are also at the top of many famous coaches in the NCAA, and now? Not only did he lose the glory of being a famous handsome, but he also became a street rat.

Pitino has no regrets about this result, what is the ultimate goal of the coach? Everyone has a different answer in their hearts, some people pursue championships and wins, some people pursue tactical inventions, and of course there are people who are obsessed with developing players, for Pitino these are not his goals, now his only goal is to defeat Zhuang Fei, which is the only goal of his coaching career, even once, as long as he defeats Zhuang Fei, he can find himself again, and then he will leave the NBA and return to the NCAA without hesitation.

He knows that Zhuang Fei will not be able to return to the NCAA in the future, so he can only endure the humiliation of staying in the NBA and staying with the Celtics, and then looking for an opportunity to defeat Zhuang Fei, he knows that he is not suitable here, but he will definitely not flee until the goal is achieved.

This is Pitino's perseverance, Zhuang Fei once accepted an interview with CBS when he was in NCAA, CBS host asked him who the coach he admired most in NCAA, Zhuang Fei did not hesitate, blurted out that it was Pitino, Zhuang Fei's three NCAA championships were all stepped on Pitino to reach the top, two finals, one quarterfinals, if there is no Zhuang Fei, no Wake Forest, Pitino is likely to be the overlord of another NCAA triple crown, this is his obsession with Zhuang Fei, and he will never give up if he does not defeat Zhuang Fei.

Originally, Pitino looked at the strength of the Timberwolves now, and felt that his goal would be more and more distant, but now he finally waited for the opportunity, not long ago they got the Raptors' promotion, hoping to exchange Maddie for the Celtics' Jason Williams, in fact, personally, Pitino doesn't like Jason Williams, he is a championship-level coach, he has a high vision, and in his opinion, players like Jason Williams can't bring championships to the team at all, and of course they can't beat the Timberwolves, But the Celtics are really unavailable, and Jason Williams's strength is quite good, although Pitino doesn't like Jason Williams, but it doesn't mean that the fans don't like it, although the Celtics' record is terrible, but Williams's gorgeous style of play has already conquered the audience here, since it can't win, then the team plays beautifully and not bad, which also makes Jason Williams have a very good reputation in the NBA, a young point guard who averages 14+8 per game is called Magic second, plus Boston's big platform, His prospects are also very promising and, of course, the deal value is also high.

Pitino has long wanted to trade Williams, but has been struggling to find the right prey, and now that the Raptors have come to the door, and it is Maddy, Pitino agreed to the offer without any hesitation.

But what annoyed Pitino was that the Raptors actually asked him to wait, what were you waiting for? Pitino guessed that he knew that he was a spare tire, thinking of this Pitino's face became extremely ugly, the reason why he could not succeed in the NBA was because he suffered a loss in the trading market, he fancied Nowitzki, Pierce and a number of other players have made people take the lead, such a thing will not happen in college at all, which is also the difference between the NBA and the NCAA.

Waiting, anxiously waiting, a few days passed, and Pitino had been waiting for a call from the Raptors. But after waiting for this, the Raptors just didn't hear back, thinking that a player like Maddy can't be the only one he pays attention to, maybe this time the Celtics still have to pass by Maddy, but just when he was desperate, the phone on the desk rang.

When Pitino picked up the phone, the news left him speechless for a moment. In the end, only two words popped out of his mouth. …,

It's done?

Zhuang Fei has been very depressed recently, and he is unhappy, not because of the Timberwolves' bad results, on the contrary, after the team's home victory over the Knicks, the Timberwolves defeated the New Jersey Nets, Golden State Warriors and Los Angeles Clippers at home one after another, once again letting the team enter the winning streak, and the Timberwolves' players are now back to normal, but even so Zhuang Fei is not happy.

Zhuang Fei gently put down the newspaper in his hand and sighed, Maddie still left the Raptors, and the final next home was his old rival Pitino, Maddie went to the Celtics to change white chocolate one-on-one, this is a drastic deal for the NBA, a supernova point guard who averaged 14 points and 8.9 assists per game was replaced by a supernova small forward who averaged 22 points and 6 assists per game, and for a time this deal became the focus of attention of all media in the United States. It's a shocking deal for them. The two teams are in charge of the deal.

Maddie's popularity in the All-Star accumulation has not subsided, but now he is married into a giant, which undoubtedly makes Maddie's reputation rise to a higher level again, but judging from the news from Boston, Boston's media and fans are very dissatisfied, Jason Williams is the team's most popular player, and no one will want to send him away like this.

For Zhuang Fei, such overwhelming reports let him know a lot of inside information, such as the Raptors once contacted three teams, the Timberwolves, the Celtics, the Lakers, and finally the Lakers were the first to reject them, Phil Jackson was unwilling to exchange Kobe for Maddy, which can also be seen that Phil Jackson valued Kobe, and the Timberwolves gave up after thinking about it for more than a week, and finally made Maddie come to Boston.

Although Zhuang Fei didn't get Maddie, he was still panicked in his heart, and now he has lost a chance to get him, and I don't know if he will have another chance in the future.

Zhuang Fei is depressed, but the Timberwolves still need to fight, and coincidentally, the first opponent the Timberwolves left their home court was the Toronto Raptors away.

On February 25, Toronto, the Timberwolves bloodied the Raptors, and the Raptors who lost Maddy did not have the slightest resistance, and the Timberwolves scored 80 points in the half, and beat the Raptors by 60 points 149-89 in the game.

Looking at the huge score difference on the cards, Zhuang Fei also breathed a bad sigh in his heart.
