Chapter 941: Plan A and Plan A-

The Pelicans are locked in a battle with the Timberwolves and the Hornets, but the Pelicans have actually made contact with Klay Thompson, contrary to media reports.

Of course, Klay Thompson knows this, but he will not debunk it, the Pelicans' intervention has doubled his value, just like this year's champion Wiggins, before this draft, some people boasted that this is a "super draft year", "the sky is long and doubled, Jordan can't even get into the top ten if the draft is made", and finally Wiggins's value was quietly raised, and then some people's goals were achieved......

Such tricks are all too common in the NBA, some teams have close ties to the media, and some are even one-man industries, and the Pelicans negotiated with the Warriors at this time.

"Tell me, what the hell are you trying to do?"

Meyers is not a pure fool, Mark Jackson reminded him a little, and he also found that the Pelicans' purpose is not necessarily to get Clay Thompson, even if Li Feng goes to play power forward, after signing Thompson with the highest salary, it will be more difficult for the Pelicans to renew Oladipo's contract.

"We want Clay, his projection is more stable than Gilbert's, he is Li Feng's best assistant!"

Liu Qiyu replied with a smile.

"We'll match, you don't have a chance!"

Meyers said confidently.

"You're not the Nets, what about the luxury tax? The boss promised? ”

Liu Qiyu is unabashedly sarcastic.

"Who do you want? Ammar? Tyson? Harold, or rather, Stephen!! That's what you're aiming for! “

Meyers pronounced the names one by one, his eyes fixed on the willow rain, as if to see her as a flower.

"Now that we've guessed it, let's get straight to the point, we're interested in Stephen Corey, Derrick is out next season, we need outside firepower and playmakers, let's be honest. Actually, Clay is also one of our targets, but we are used to a two-way guard combination like Arenasros, and you only have one choice, Clay or Stephen? If you keep Stephen, then give us Clay, if you want Clay, we are willing to help you take out the Bobcats and Timberwolves, and then pay an objective price to get Stephen! ”

Seeing the poor dagger, Liu Qiyu said the real goal, the Pelicans' plan A this year - Stephen Corey.

"Huh. Even if we keep Clay, even if we trade Stephen, why should we agree to you to trade, there are too many people who want Stephen. ”

It has to be said that Meyers is a good general manager with high negotiation skills and does not let the situation be controlled by Liu Qiyu.

However, Liu Qiyu was prepared for a long time and came up with a prepared news, "Ankle Injury Becomes a Stubborn Disease, It Is Difficult to Heal at Present" This medical report comes from Goldman Sachs in the United States.

"Stephen's injury is something you can see. We're willing to take risks because Stephen doesn't have to do much with the Pelicans, we can design a strategy where he only scores, and the rest can be left to Li Feng. You can't, you're at great risk. ”

"As for why he traded to us, it's because Jeff is already in contact with Clay. If we don't get Stephen at the end of the session, we'll sign Clay, you know. The defending champions are not small, and we can also give the maximum salary! ”

After saying this, Liu Qiyu took out cosmetics from her bag, ignoring Meyers and began to dress up in front of the small mirror.

Meyers also took a cigar and put it in his mouth, but he didn't light it, and the office was silent for two minutes.

In the end, Meyers still could not calm down, he knew that he must be in a weak position when he spoke, and said:

"How about we make a big trade, Al Jefferson and Victor Oladipo trade Stephen and Tyson?"

It's tough, it's cunning!!

Liu Qiyu slowly put away the cosmetics, and had to praise Meyers in his heart, this guy is too treacherous.

"Tyson replaced by Amal, otherwise don't talk!"

A fluttering sentence instantly made the initiative return to the side of Liu Qiyu.

Amalstadmire is not the sick number in his previous life, he has maintained his condition in this world, and he also averaged 20.5 points and 9.5 rebounds per game last season, and if Meyers agrees to this deal, then the Pelicans don't mind giving Al Jefferson, which is equivalent to Oladipo for Stephen Corey, which is not a loss.

"It's impossible to !!"

Meyers said angrily, in fact, Tyson Chandler didn't want to change him, it was just a rhetoric, the Warriors' interior line was very reasonable, and both of them could adapt to the bombardment tactics, Al Jefferson's tonnage and style of play were not destined to be suitable for the Warriors, unless he regained the ferocity of the Celtics.

"Then Victor for Stephen, we can catch two second-round rookies this year!"

Willow lacquer rain added quietly.

"You plus John Henson, let's make friends!"

Meyers laughed suddenly, smiling more than Obama in Liu Qiyu's eyes, if it weren't for the occasion, Liu Qiyu even wanted to say a national scolding.

John Henson was only in his second season last season, but he showed good potential, in the Pelicans with Al Jefferson and Paul Millsap and Brand and Li Feng, he still has an average of 22 minutes per game, is a young man that Van Gundy admires, Henson's table is also worthy of expectations, averaging 6.2 points and 7.6 rebounds per game, as well as 2.7 blocks, 48 minutes of block efficiency is the first in the league, and some media even say that Henson is no worse than Drummond in the future.

In fact, the Pelicans don't even want to give Oladipo, but Meyers is too difficult to deal with, and without Oladipo, the Pelicans can't get Stephen Corey at all.

"We can pay Ronnie Brewer to strengthen your perimeter defense, you can use Clay as the core, Oladi Pogaroni Brewer for Stephen, how about it?"

Liu Qiyu "gritted his teeth" and made an offer, as if Ronnie Brewer were Scottie Pippen or Bobby Jones.

Meyers, of course, will not be fooled, and continues to laugh:

"Haha, if you guys catch Kevin Martin, we'll pay Brandon Rush!"

Hearing this, Liu Qiyu couldn't help but be furious, Blanton Rush has been reimbursed for a season, the future is uncertain, and it is not equal to Kevin Martin at all, Kevin Martin could average 20+ per game before his injury, she said indignantly:

"We'd rather have Clay, don't think we only need Stephen, I admit that Stephen is Plan A, and Clay is just Plan A, but Plan A-is not unacceptable!"

Meyers didn't buy it.

"Then there's no need to talk about it!"

Liu Qiyu took out the phone and seemed to dial Van Gundy's phone:

"Jeff, we can only get Clay ......"

"Wait, we can talk!"

Seeing Liu Qiyu calling, Meyers couldn't sit still all of a sudden, he was actually more inclined to Thompson, Corey actually found out the injury in the playoffs, but it was not strict, but it was always a hidden danger, he had decided in his heart to keep Thompson, and then Corey's position was nothing more than adding a shooter, point guard, they have been in contact with Kyrie Lowry, and there are many point guards this summer.

The other party finally couldn't hold his breath, Liu Qiyu was secretly happy, and his face did not show a look, but said impatiently:

"Mr. Meyers, what else do you have to say, if you want Clay, we'll trade Victor and Kevin Martin for Stephen, nothing else!"

Meyers also knew that he couldn't put it off, but out of professional habits, he still added another price.

"You plus Ronnie Brewer!"

Liu Qiyu also knew that this was the moment, and said very simply:

"Deal!"

Meyers was stunned, his face changed greatly, but he still replied dryly:

"Happy trading!"

The two sides were quick to get a deal that the Pelicans paid Victor Oladipo and Kevin Martin and Ronnie Brewer to get the Warriors' Stephen Corey.

Soon to complete the transaction, Liu Qiyu and her assistant walked out of the Warriors Building, her red Ferrari was parked downstairs, sat in the car, took out a notepad from the dashboard, which read Meyers's information, and a photo, seeing the old treacherous smile, Liu Qiyu said disdainfully:

"There's no A-plan!"

As he spoke, the assistant handed over a Ling Mei fountain pen, and Liu Qiyu drew a big "X" on the photo on the notepad.

……

On July 5, ESPN reported that Thompson's fat photo drama had an unexpected ending.

The Golden State Warriors have reached a contract extension with shooting guard Klay Thompson to a four-year, $70 million max contract extension. The combination of Thompson and Stephen Corey is considered one of the best backcourt combinations in the league, and Thompson is also the player who has made the most three-pointers in the first three seasons of his career in league history.

According to league sources, the Warriors and Thompson finally reached this contract extension agreement after many negotiations, and Thompson was offered a four-year contract extension with a total salary cap of about $70 million. It is reported that the contract is fully guaranteed, with no bonus clause and no team option or player option clause.

In fact, the Warriors have been retaining Thompson this summer, and they even refused to trade Thompson for Kevin Love. The Warriors also turned down a number of other teams to pursue Thompson, such as the Kings, who were even willing to return any player for Thompson except DeMarcus Cousins and Rudy Gay, but the Warriors still chose to refuse.

After many negotiations, the Warriors finally reached an agreement with Thompson. In accordance with the rules of the Union

Last season, Thompson averaged 23.4 points, 3.1 rebounds and 2.2 assists in 35.4 minutes per game, averaging a career-high scoring average and becoming the leading scorer in the Warriors, and his status has also surpassed the injury-stricken Stephen Corey.

In the Warriors' first three seasons, Thompson made a total of 545 three-pointers. Looking back at the history of the NBA, according to statistics, in his first three seasons in the league, Thompson was the player who made the most three-point shots. He is followed by Kelly Korver (491), Ben Gordon (455) and Nick van Exel (450). (To be continued......)
