In fact, it was proposed that Kwame Brown was also a pit buried by Lacob, and he wanted Jiang Chao to fall into the pit.

Because now all the management knows that the Knicks like draft picks the most, and they love to trade draft picks the most, and their own draft picks are never out.

So they guessed that they would definitely not want to play again, and deliberately said that they would let Jiang Chao make his own offer.

They were afraid that Jiang Chao would open 2 draft picks.

Because to be honest, David Lee, a player, can only be replaced in the internal evaluation of at least 2 first-rounders, that is, combat power, a middle-class contract with bird rights, and an annual salary of only 8 million, which is not too fragrant!

He's not very old now, and if he runs in this year, and with Thomas Jr. next year, the Warriors may really do big things.

Don't look at David Lee now being replaced by Ibaka in the Knicks, but don't forget his double-double machine in 08, averaging 15 points and 9.6 rebounds per game, you can say that the Knicks are too strong, but you definitely can't say that David Lee is weak!

Therefore, coupled with David Lee's words, Thomas Jr., who has only performed seven or eight games, is more like an add-on, Thomas Jr. To be honest, the Knicks are indeed in a hurry.

has only played seven or eight good games, and it is just one start, but the scope of investigation is too small, and other teams will not easily shoot when the template is small, even if they get 30+10 before playing the Warriors, it is useless.

Jennings still has a 55-point performance in his first year as a rookie......

This kind of player will be worth a lot more if you trade it for a season, and everyone will think that your statistics are stable enough and can adapt to the defensive lineup of each team.

So when Jiang Chao proposed to add a first-round to get David Lee, Wright and the two hurriedly agreed.

At this time, you can't pretend anymore, and you won't have such a good opportunity to pretend again.

Honestly, what's the use of the first round?

Taobao is not something that can be Taobao every year, their current record, the first round is about 15 picks, and the players selected will be David Lee and Thomas Jr. Any of them?

It's hard, isn't it?

The Warriors can still distinguish between choosing a gambling draft and now directly getting two instant players who are at least 5 years old.

Both of them have proven themselves in the NBA.

Even if Thomas Jr. will be as short-lived as the fans sour, isn't Jennings' high-pick show also a flash in the pan......

At the very least, Thomas Jr. is a player that the Warriors' owners and executives like.

So when Jiang Chao proposed + a first round, the two sides hit it off, and even the Warriors compensated 2 million cash.

This amount of money is trivial for Lacob, but for Jiang Chao...... emm, don't be in vain?

Anyway, from the perspective of history, KT's peak durability and achievements are stronger than David Lee + Thomas Jr., and the most important thing is that it will be terrifying after gathering the splash buff.

Even he thinks that Harden + Klay will have a very good chemistry, and Harden can be better than Curry in terms of ball handling and passing, so KT will get more three-point opportunities.

The meeting became very quick and pleasant because of Jiang Chao's consent.

Klay Thompson + Warriors' 2012 first-round pick for Thomas Jr. + David Lee of the Knicks.

A verbal agreement was reached on this arguably relatively large pre-Christmas deal.

"Well, pleasantly."

"Pleasant."

Jiang Chao shook hands with Warriors boss Lacob, and the rest of the work was handed over to the two general managers.

It won't be too long, because the two sides won't have to pay the players they traded for.

"I wish Boss Jiang and President Max a Merry Christmas in advance."

"Then I also wish you a happy New Year's Day in advance, and all the best in 2012."

The four shook hands, and Downey Jr. rushed over to take a group photo with them in a daze.

Half an hour later.

Sometimes the NBA is more Broadway than Broadway, full of drama.

As soon as the two sides were interviewed in the locker room, the ESPN reporter suddenly shouted:

"Hey!! Your two teams are traded! ”

"Ah???h

"What?"

Harden's expression directly turned into a meme.

woj's little brother reporter directly told the details:

"Just now, the Knicks and Warriors reached a verbal agreement between the management of the two sides, and now it is under review by the league, and it should be a certainty!"

"What!!" Little Thomas still looked like he didn't care about himself, and directly took the reporter's notebook and looked at it, and then was directly dumbfounded.

Not only him, but Thompson in the home team's locker room next door was also a bit of a snort.

However, Curry looked like he was hiding his merits and fame, and he was told by D'Antoni first in the game.

Until the reporter said the name of David Lee...... He burst into tears in an instant:

“lee！！！！”

David Lee smiled with relief, and regardless of the stupid appearance of little Thomas over there, he got up and hugged him directly, and also hugged Ibaka who didn't react.

Press officers from both sides came to the locker room at this time, cleared the reporters out with many people looking confused, and said that this was the end of today's interview.

Otherwise, it is believed that the dressing rooms of both sides will immediately go straight from ordinary post-match interviews to press conferences.

The ESPN's instantaneous headlines are much faster than the situation on the spot, because there are moles inside the NBA who specialize in selling intelligence:

Knicks Big Move! Klay Thompson + Warriors' 2012 first-round pick for Thomas Jr. + David Lee of the Knicks, and the Warriors will also give 2 million cash compensation!! 》

Shocked!! The Knicks actually took the initiative to dismantle 2 rotation players! 》

David Lee Leaves!! The Knicks lose another championship member!! 》

Little Thomas Leaves!! The strongest second-round pick of the year will be transferred to the Warriors, and I may get more opportunities! 》

The news that came out just after the game really shook the global fans, there are still more than 2 months before the free market closes, are the Knicks and Warriors in such a hurry, can they have a good Christmas?

Thousands of comments on the forum instantly.

Thomas Jr., who has been doing so well recently, was shocked enough to be traded.

But Brother Li, who has been regarded as a stalk recently, also traded together, which no one expected.

"Hey, hey, hey! Let's just say this, Brother Li can't really leave! ”

"Yes, Brother Li, I'm an idol, we're all just playing stalks, Boss Jiang, don't take it seriously!"

"So let's play with memes in moderation!!"

"Boss Jiang is crazy? Oku, Turk Drew, Mills, David Lee...... Four people left in the winning lineup? And 3 stable starter levels? ”

"It's okay, Brother Li is really not as good as Ibaka this year, but Brother Li must have much more playoff experience than Ibaka."

"Eh, I can only say that it is not broken or standing, it is good for both sides, in the Warriors, David Lee is the absolute starter."

"Yes, for Brother Li, the starter must be back, and it seems to be good now? What kind of character is this Thompson just in exchange? ”

"Klay Thompson, the college scoring champion went to the Knicks?? Knicks offense must not explode? ”

"He's okay to defend with his stature, and if he practices more strength confrontation, he may be better than Hayward."

"Hayward's shooting center of gravity is too far forward, and Thompson has a standard hand shape, so it's very comfortable to shoot."

"But it's definitely not the standard for David Lee."

"Then I know for sure that in the Warriors, David Lee I feel like he can play All-Star level stats, and his secondary offensive ability and fast cutting ability are very strong."

Old Captain: "So add a first round." ”

"Hehe, cool crooked, welcome Brother Li!"

"If you don't have a good time with the Knicks, you will definitely give the starters +35 minutes on our side!"

"Looking forward to Brother Li in the west!"

"I'm a Timberwolves and a big deal!"

Warriors fans are ecstatic, such a small price in exchange for David Lee, that is definitely okay!

Thompson has actually been complained about many times by fans in the Warriors area because he doesn't know how to dribble, and everyone in this era has been nourished by the tastes of Kobe, Wade, and Harden.

According to Yongmi's words, co-authoring still has to match a traditional point guard for him?

Coupled with Thompson's mediocre scoring performance for half a season, most Warriors fans are actually dissatisfied, no one wants to see the team's mediocre record, and even if they lose, they have to see the explosive player performance, and they want to see hope!

Even the Knicks, Thomas Jr., has better stats for one start than Thompson's best stats of the season.

"Next year's first round? It doesn't matter, little Thomas, isn't this more fragrant than the first round? ”

"It's also a win-win deal."

"Double ...... Is it a win-win? What's wrong with little Thomas...... Why take him with you. ”

"yes, he's not without a place."

"That's definitely for the Warriors management."

"Well, it's nothing, Beverley and Matthews can also top, but the offensive explosiveness is not so strong."

"I think it's okay, Thomas Jr. is pressed by Curry, Curry can play more in the playoffs, and Curry's unlimited firing rights are not minutes in a single game?"

"It's also oh, what you said makes me feel that the Warriors management has fallen into the trap of Jiang Chao, Thomas Jr. has averaged 15 shots per game in the last 7 games, it feels like it is estimated that the show is for buyers like the Warriors? It's hard to imagine Thomas Jr. getting so many shots at the Knicks' level. ”

"It doesn't matter, if you give it a chance, at least you can play it, doesn't Klay Thompson theoretically have unlimited firing rights?"

"Hey, hey, don't call me Clay, I still like him very much, your Ellistet is so special, he averages 22.5 shots per game."

Why to trade Thomas Jr., who has performed well recently, I'm afraid only the Knicks know inside.

Thomas Jr. in the locker room angrily wanted to talk to the boss and the general manager, but was directly held down by Howard:

"Don't make a fuss, the management's decision, we can't question it, the future will be good."

Beverly shouted like a direct boss: "What are you, Brother Li is gone!" !! ”

Obviously, he didn't expect his rotation status to come back, and he was still annoyed that Brother Li was leaving.

But before he could make trouble, the young marshal and Sean Marks appeared at the right time to explain everything, and this kind of Jiang supernatural did not need to appear.

The management will not throw it at Jiang Chao, but directly "convict" Thomas Jr. and then "thank"

said that Thomas Jr. violated the team's rules by skipping the level to apply for playing time, but the Warriors are also in dire need of such talent, and thank him for his contribution to the team during this time.

Little Thomas still couldn't believe all this: "I want to see Boss Jiang." ”

Because only he knew that Jiang Chao promised him that he would give him more opportunities, but he didn't expect the trade fair to come so quickly, and the person he chose by himself would be sent away by himself??

I can't stand it emotionally!

What the heck!

"Boss, I wish you the Warriors to be the boss."

Stevens glared at him and said you still want to skip the level and meet people??

Or Da Yao is smart, thinking of the recent team events, he suddenly knew the intention of Jiang Chao's deal, and he also had a high emotional intelligence and grabbed Thomas Jr. and said:

"It's useless for you to see the super boss, but it makes him angry, what he means is actually that you don't average 20+8 per game, isn't it good to send you to other teams to be the boss?"

"Be the boss?"

"Yes, in the Warriors, aren't you the future boss!" Da Yao coaxes people to have a hand, but this is actually a fact.

There was another knock on the locker room door, but at this time, it must be the big guy who could knock on the door, Warriors president Wright and owner Lacob had already come to greet David Lee and Thomas Jr. in person.

It was a laughing hug that made little Thomas think about it completely.

It doesn't matter, it's cool, okay!

In the Warriors, he is the future boss!!

was coaxed by Da Yao like this, but he felt that Jiang Chao was doing good for him, yes, there was no chance in the Knicks playoffs, and now he is just a young marshal who is training the lineup, and he is crazy, but he is really not stupid.

He stayed in the Knicks for half a year, and he also saw that this is a team with a strict style of defense, and his defense may not be able to play at critical moments.

But the Warriors are different, the Warriors have completely rebuilt after firing the old Nelson 2 years ago, and the coach's thinking is also being rebuilt, and a young coach's schoolbag has been found, so the system has not yet been built, and this kind of team cannot win the championship in the short term, but it can give Thomas Jr. absolute time to display his offensive talent!

Just thinking about it, the two Warriors were kicked out by the tall Sean Marks:

"Go, go, we're not done yet."

And then by the way, Thomas Jr. was also pushed out together, and co-authored to "sell" Thomas Jr. to the Warriors first?

And David Lee was hugged by the players in the back, compared to Thomas Jr., who has only been together for a few months, this is really watching the veterans of the rise of the Knicks!!

From the Goal-Blocking Four, to Dujon, Eddie Curry, Jerome James, to Larry Hughes, Big Q......

He also experienced the departure of the old Knicks one by one in the 08 season, and now, it is finally his turn.

The media has been waiting for this moment for a long time, and even Master Li wrote a headline:

"With the trade of David Lee, the Knicks for the 2008-2009 season have left completely"

But the article also mentions the current brotherhood, while watching the departure of his former friends, David Lee is also watching the rise of Kuha and witnessing the arrival of the Turkish duo.

Then I also experienced a big scene like recruiting Howard and Yao Ming......

and won the championship with the team last season, creating Knicks new century team history......

For Curry Harden, Ibaka, Danny Green and other rookies in the class of 09, David Lee is definitely their mentor and friend, giving them a head on the court, teaching them how many cups of coffee they have drunk in life!!

And for the UAE and Da Yao, Li Kaier, these affectionate insiders were even more tearful, but they didn't expect this scene to really come.

"Hey, hey, hey, what do you cry and chirp like, you're still brothers, aren't you?"

I don't know when Jiang Chao came to the dressing room, leaned against the door, and watched all this lightly.

David Li looked at the familiar Boss Jiang with a hideous face (not wanting to cry), rushed over and hugged Jiang Chao, and shouted emotionally:

"I'll always love the Knicks, thank you for making me a family!!"
