Jingle bells!

Joe. Dumas was a little surprised to see the call, but he still picked up Angie's phone. "Anji, do you have anything to do with me? Is it trying to strengthen the Celtics' roster? ”

The Celtics had been swept by the Nets at this point, and Angie called. Dumas naturally felt that the opponent wanted to strengthen the lineup.

"I'm not here to bolster the roster, I want a first-round pick from the Grizzlies."

Angie's voice came from the other end of the phone, making Joe. Dumas was stunned.

He thought that Anji was going to reinforce, but did it turn out that he was going to rebuild?

"Anji, your new general manager is going to rebuild the Celtics, and the Grizzlies' first-round pick is really useless for the Pistons, but I don't know what price you are willing to pay?"

Joe. Dumas is well aware that it is impossible for a championship-contending team to develop a rookie.

Original history in the middle of the Dakota. Milicic is an example.

As soon as the three-year rookie period passed, the Pistons were directly let go.

If the Celtics want to rebuild, then this first-round pick is worth a lot!

Angie knows Joe. Dumas misunderstood, but he didn't break it up.

"What do you want, what do Celtics give?"

Anji knew very well that Chu Xuan was gambling, and he was also gambling.

At this time, the first-round pick has not yet come out, and it is naturally impossible for Anji to stud directly as soon as he opens his mouth.

Joe. Dumas was stunned when he heard Angie's words.

Then he asked, "Paul. Pierce, are you willing to give? ”

This season Paul. Although Pierce was only selected for three times, anyone with a discerning eye knows it.

Pierce is already the league's premier small forward.

"Do you think a first-round pick can be exchanged for the Celtics' star player? Joe, I'll tell you directly. ”

"I need that first-round pick, and you need to compete for a championship, and the Pistons, I know very well."

"If you don't have a consistent second scorer, it's hard for you to go far in the playoffs."

"I'm willing to put Antoine. Walker gives you a portion of the other chips. ”

Joe. Dumas thought about it and went straight to the quote.

"Antoine. Walker plus Tony. Decker and two first-round picks. ”

Angie almost hung up the phone, Joe. Dumas, this is simply robbery!

Tony. As the Celtics' third-highest scorer in the playoffs, Decker averaged 15.8 points, 3.6 assists and 4.7 rebounds per game.

And Joe. Dumas wants two first-round picks from the Celtics!

Robbery transactions are not so robbed!

"Joe, do you really think I'd agree to that offer?"

"Anji, what kind of offer can you give?"

Joe. Dumas naturally knew that it was impossible for Angie to agree, and he was also testing Angie's bottom line.

Angie pondered for a moment and then said, "I can give you a first-round pick this year. ”

"The Celtics are a playoff team this year, and you and I are well aware of the value of this first-round pick."

Joe. Dumas naturally won't agree, after all, the Celtics will definitely not be high this year.

Since the order is not high, it means that the transaction value is not large!

"I want the Celtics' first-round pick next year and Antoine. Walker plus Tony. Derk, this year is a big year for the draft, you don't suffer Angie! ”

Angie was silent for a moment, as if thinking.

A moment later, Anji's voice came out again on the phone.

"These chips, now the Grizzlies' first-round pick is not the top three, I will be at a loss, you have to add some chips Joe!"

Joe. Dumas then asked: "What do you want?" ”

"I need the Pistons' backup center, Memet. Oku, the '04 Pistons' first-round pick swap, or one or two second-round picks. ”

Angie knew, Joe. Dumas thought the Celts were going to rebuild.

However, Anji, as an old fox, did not say anything about it.

For Joe. For Dumas, what the Pistons need now is a breakthrough in the East, not a so-called future.

Memet. Oku himself is also a second-round pick in Joe. Dumas is also a kind of talent in his eyes, and he naturally doesn't care about such a player.

"The Celtics plus two second-round picks, I used the Pistons' first-round pick in '04 to swap the Celtics' first-rounder."

"Deal!"

As Angie's voice rang from the other end of the phone, the deal was done.

Joe. Dumas promised: "Then it is decided!" ”

The NBA also has its own rules, and once this kind of deal is agreed, no one will go back.

Once you repent, you will be pulled into the blacklist of the circle.

People don't trade with you, so how can the team be strengthened?

Is it just the draft?

It is precisely because of this that the draw has not yet started at this time.

But Joe. As long as Dumas agrees, he will not regret it!

Joe. Dumas was actually betting on the Grizzlies' bad luck in the first round and only finishing with a fifth or sixth pick, or even lower.

It may not be traded yet, but now the Celtics' chips are there!

......

Anji's side is still preparing for a trade with many teams, while Chu Xuan's side has started a vacation.

Time flashed, and it came to May 22nd.

Chu Xuan was talking to Paul in the offseason at this time. Pierce fishes together.

That's right, it's fishing.

The two men were on a rented yacht at this time and started sea fishing.

Chu Xuan's purpose this time was actually to get Paul out. Pierce.

The present is not like the future though.

As long as there is a conflict between the star and the head coach, it is the head coach who will go.

But the star of the house also has a lot of say in the topic of choosing a head coach.

Get Angie, get Paul. Pierce.

His handsome position is basically stable!

Rivers took over the Celtics' tenure in 2004-05.

Next season in the middle of the original history in Jim. After head coach O'Brien stepped down, he was replaced by his assistant coach, John O'Brien. Carol.

Although nowadays Jim. O'Brien got out of class early, but Chu Xuan, as an assistant teacher, did have a chance to take office!
