Chapter 66: Thunder Second Boy Comes to My Knicks!
Chapter 66: Thunder Second Boy Comes to My Knicks!
Both sides agreed almost instantly.
Because it's also a win-win swap.
Again, the Thunder win now, and the Knicks may win the future.
It's just that Sean Marks is very puzzled, why would Jiang Chao choose the rookie who was already scratched last year instead of next year's first-round pick?
Serge Ibaka was the 24th player drafted by the SuperSonics in the first round in 2008, and if the Thunder's record is good next year, it will be almost the same pick, so why should this blue-collar player with rough interior skills be needed?
In his opinion, this is exactly the Thunder's earned deal.
One really dares to mention, and the other really dares to choose people! These two are wonderful!
But the good news is that the foursome were carried away by a litter......
Mr. Pu also thinks so, Ibaka is already a bargaining chip on the shelf in his eyes, because he and Ibaka overlapped in function after getting Harrington, Ibaka played tepid and even poor last year, and he will not be given the opportunity to cultivate him after Harrington in the future.
If you want a blue-collar player, it is obvious that a quasi-star like Harrington is more combative.
So since Boss Jiang wants it, then give it decisively.
You're welcome, I can exchange for a master who follows the second young man to rush into battle!
And Jiang Chao's expression was weird, and he couldn't help but laugh.
He is indeed young and vigorous, and he can't compare to these old oils in some details, but I'm sorry.
I have a historical-level vision to reduce the dimensionality of the strike!
In Jiang Chao's opinion, Mr. Pu's phone call is a gift to the door.
It seems that you want to make a wave of money at the starting price, but who will make it is not certain.
Of course, it can also be said to be a win-win situation, the passionate combination of Wei Shao + Little Potato is likely to be a five-gear accelerated dunk throughout the game.
And the Knicks......
Joke.
This is a 28-meter big knife cap king medical insurance card!
There is nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get them.
Thank you for taking the initiative to send a defensive gate!
09 Shuangtie, the person who wiped your ass is here!
……
Is that okay?
The two hit it off, so that the deputy general manager next to him, the mustache, couldn't react at all.
He only knew about some of Jiang Chao's plans now, and he also knew that the Knicks actually wanted the No. 3 pick, and he couldn't turn his mind at all, and he only felt that this deal was like a fantasy.
His first reaction was that Jiang Chao actually sent out three thorns at once, and the second reaction was to lie in the groove, and the chips on the opposite side seemed to be good?
Anyway, he was already in a completely numb state, and even vaguely expected the reaction of David Stern and the fans outside.
All he could do was report Ibaka's scouting to Jiang Chao.
The Thunder must be ready to train him, this contract is very comfortable, a 5-year rookie contract of 8 million, an annual salary of 1.12 million last year, and about 1.3 million this year, which basically does not account for the Knicks' salary space.
"You can fill in the void for us on the inside without Harrington." D'Antoni said from the coach's point of view.
Fortunately, he didn't continue to be the head coach, and this trade has so much instant combat power, in exchange for a No. 3 pick and rookie power forward, no matter how good the coach is, it is difficult to top.
So who does he want to choose for the No. 3 pick? What about the No. 8 lot? Although the mustache is sitting in the field, he is actually an "outsider" waiting for a miracle.
Maybe Jiang Chao can really make a big deal!
"Uh-huh, OK!"
The rookie contract signed by Mr. Pu and Ibaka made Jiang Chao very satisfied, that is, there are still 4 years of rookie bonus period, which is completely enough.
He also knew why Mr. Pu agreed to the deal.
Last season, Ibaka played in 73 games, averaging 18.1 minutes per game, contributing 6 points, 4.4 rebounds, 1.2 blocks, and even started 20 games.
Although the block data is the first in the team, other aspects obviously cannot meet the needs of the Thunder, and there is no room for them to have a black and hard interior line.
At this time, the medical insurance card play completely uses its long arms and bounce on the inside of a pillar of optimus frame type, and has not yet developed a divine mid-range shot and three-point shot.
It's clear that Harrington, who shoots 45% from the field and 36.2% from three-point range, is a better fit for the Thunder, who are now mostly penetrating.
And Ibaka eats bullwhips, lambs, kidneys, cow eggs and so on every day that it's scary, and the Thunder locker room doesn't dare to tease the rookie from Congo more.
But from the perspective of the historical process, the person chosen by President Pu is not wrong, and Ibaka's achievements in later generations are much stronger than Harrington's.
Mr. Pu's vision has always been okay, and these people can really make achievements with the eldest brother and the second brother.
But this deal can be reached, Jiang Chao also saw the operational capabilities he had considered before, and there was also a reason why he didn't spend a lot of money on Pu Zong at that time.
He has an invincible vision, but his operational ability is not very good, he does not see the long-term, his shortcomings are obvious, and he is easily affected by reality, such as now that the Little Potato Street Stadium has blown everything up, he wants to get over, and the people in the team have been traded before they play.
Then in a few years, the people he chooses will always come out, and the detonators will always come out and be beaten.
The choice is really chosen, and the change is also really complacent.
Jiang Chao didn't expect to get a defense master so soon.
With a height of 2.08 meters and an arm span of 2.26 meters, Ibaka has won the NBA block title for two consecutive seasons and has been named to the league's best defensive first team for three consecutive years.
And in the case of a sharp decline in physical fitness after playing closed, with one-handed shooting ability, he won the championship with the Raptors led by Lenner and Lowry in the 19th season!
There is nothing to say about his playing attitude, Jiang Chao's impression of the moment is the Thunder who originally fell behind the Spurs 2-1, and Ibaka made a comeback for the team to play a closed line of fire, and directly did not give the Spurs any chance.
All tactical teams basically can't beat the Thunder's talented shock team, and Ibaka relied on his talent to help defend the Spurs' team basketball, and also relied on his mid-range shots to make the twin towers of Duncan and Split become decorations.
The only way to beat the Thunder back then was a more talented offensive team, such as the Heat......
Anyway, the medical insurance card is a rare top-level spatial defensive interior in the NBA!
The main thing is that this brother will not be eliminated by the times at all.
What type of interior line is needed in the small ball era? Being able to protect the rim, being able to open up space, being able to control the ball better, and as small-ball tactics have become more popular, the first two have become a prerequisite for big men to enter the NBA.
Serge Ibaka was an important and stable player on the outside during the Thunder Finals, shooting more than 35 percent from three-point range every year, and an exaggerated 50 percent shooting percentage from the field.
This is the complete opposite of his appearance, and the frame protection efficiency and plus/minus value have always ranked first among the four less.
Hard, it's over!
At this time, Jiang Chao and the three of them watched Mr. Pu tell the staff about the trade decision, and the staff came to the Knicks to confirm, and many teams looked over, which shows that the two teams will trade in the draft.
You can tell from the faces of the staff how amazing this deal is.
"No problem, agreed." Shaun Marks signed.
The staff was a little nervous about recording it, after all, it was the first transaction that came up.
"Now that the draft picks are in your hands, which player are you going to pick with the Thunder pick?"
In the bewildered expression of D'Antony, Shaun Marks wrote a name:
"James. Harden. ”
"Okay, thanks." The staff took the envelope and left quickly, Jiang Chao and Mr. Pu nodded in the air, this deal was completely finalized!
Jiang Chao touched his chin.
The foursome who blocked the door were wiped out in an instant, which was interesting.
Good guy, going around and around, I actually have two of the four thunders?
It's kind of interesting.
It's all two less, and it shouldn't be any different.
