When Buford heard the chips Dawson was willing to pay, he was stunned.

Trading a top star like Mobley for a rookie, even if the rookie has already had great results on the European and international stage, is a bit of a surprise.

Buford couldn't help but fall silent.

In his heart, he is very optimistic about Ginobili. Otherwise, he wouldn't have found a way to bring Ginobili back to the team when he first took over this year.

But the price of the chips offered by Dawson is really too exciting.

A star who has already proven himself is traded for a rookie who has just entered the NBA and played less than ten games.

What do you think, such a trade was earned by the Spurs!

"Mr. Dawson, are you sure you want to trade Mobley for Ginobili?!" Buford asked, incredulous.

"Of course." Dawson replied without hesitation.

Such a certain attitude made Buford a little confused.

Could it be that something is wrong with Mobley's side?!

Buford thought about it carefully, and after making sure that he hadn't heard about Mobley's injuries recently, he secretly had a guess in his heart.

Perhaps, something went wrong within the Rockets team that had to transfer Mobley?!

"Mr. Dawson, I need to think about this again." Buford did not agree to the deal.

Although when he heard that the Rockets were willing to trade Mobley for Ginobili, his heart was already shaken.

But he has always been cautious, and he feels that he should inquire more before making a decision.

Although he is very optimistic about Ginobili, compared to players who can already average 20+ points per game in the NBA, Buford is not so determined.

And Han Ning had just talked to several players in the team one by one at this time.

Kevin Cato, as the starting center of the Rockets last season, lost his starting position after Da Yao came this season, and he was also a little dissatisfied.

In Han Ning's heart, Kevin Cato can only be said to be barely qualified as a starting center, and the best choice is to play as a substitute for Da Yao.

"Cato, you know what the team is aiming for this season, we want to win the championship." Han Ning said with a serious expression.

"But if you want to win a championship, you have to pay a price. This is not an easy goal to achieve. Each of us has to make sacrifices, you know what I mean?! ”

After Cato heard Han Ning's words, his expression was a little unnatural.

He could understand the meaning of Han Ning's words, that is, he wanted him to play as a substitute with peace of mind.

A player who has already played in the starting position wants him to continue to play as a substitute in the current year, which is not very difficult.

Han Ning saw the expression on Cato's face, and his mind understood his thoughts.

However, Cato did not refuse as decisively as Mobley before, which shows that the championship is still very attractive to him, and things can still turn around.

"Cato, Da Yao's physical strength is not enough to support him to play more than 30 minutes on the court. 25 minutes is the best playing time for Da Yao, so although you are a substitute, you don't have a lot of playing time in each game, and you can still play good statistics and contribute to the pursuit of the championship. ”

"As long as you win the championship, then it's worth it, right?!"

Han Ning's words completely moved Cato.

Da Yao's stamina is indeed an issue, and it takes him 25 minutes of playing time per game to ensure maximum efficiency.

If Han Ning really compresses Da Yao's playing time to about 25 minutes, then he will definitely get a lot of playing time!

And, as long as you can win the championship, it's worth it!

Cato lowered his head and thought about it, then raised his head and said with a hint of excitement: "Boss, I want a championship, whether it's a substitute or a starter." I want that ring! ”

When Han Ning heard this, a smile leaked from his face.

As long as Kevin Cato is convinced, the rest of the players will be easy to say.

Maurice Taylor is the team's backup power forward in his own right and will not have a problem competing for a starting spot.

Backup small forward Glenn Rice is entering the end of his career, and fellow small forward Bosjjan Nakba and backup point guard Juaquinn Hawkins are both rookies and won't have any problems.

As for the other substitute players, Han Ning didn't want to keep any of them.

After talking to the players one by one, it was already dark.

Han Ning picked up his phone and frowned slightly after finding that he had not received Dawson's message.

It stands to reason that one day is enough time to negotiate with the Spurs about the transfer, not at all.

Ginobili is crucial for the Rockets.

Not only can it weaken the Spurs, but it can also take the Rockets' bench up a notch.

After thinking about it carefully, Han Ning still couldn't help but call Dawson.

"Mr. Dawson, how is Ginobili's transfer operation?!" Han Ning asked straight to the point.

Dawson's mood seemed to be a little unhappy, and he said in a deep voice: "The Spurs are still thinking about it. ”

As if feeling that Han Ning was questioning his ability, Dawson continued: "Han, I am the general manager of the Rockets, and there will definitely be no problems in terms of transfers. Especially with Mobley in exchange for a rookie, there won't be any problems. Your focus should be on the team's tactics. ”

After Han Ning heard Dawson's dissatisfaction, he didn't say anything, just followed Dawson's words and hung up the phone after saying a few nice words.

From Dawson's words, he could already hear what the problem was.

It stands to reason that the Spurs shouldn't hesitate to trade the old cat Mobley for Ginobili.

But now the Spurs have not given a clear answer.

This made Han Ning understand the problem in his heart.

The Rockets' trade this time made the Spurs unable to see the purpose and benefits! Therefore, the Spurs are a little afraid to agree to this transfer, for fear that there will be some problems in it.

In that case, we need to find a way for the Spurs to find the Rockets, isn't that the end of what they are doing!

Generally, there are only two possibilities for a team to be willing to actively trade the stars of the team.

Either they want to trade this player for a player who is more suitable for the team or a better player.

And Mobley and Ginobili are in the same position on the court, and Mobley's ability is obvious to all.

So it's not convincing to start with that.

Another possibility is that the star has a conflict with the team and the team has to trade him!

Thinking of this, a smile leaked from Han Ning's face.

Picked up my phone and sent a text message out.

Who said that you can only use media opinion to engage other teams during transfer operations?!

I can't find the media to do it myself!
