Chapter 317: Raising the Tiger (Second Update)

After eating with Wallace and getting Jeff Power's contact information, Min Congda returned to the hotel.

The Wasps' bankruptcy shocked him and made him realize that there were still many imperfections in his work.

At the same time, it also made Min Congda reinvigorate, it turned out that the team's bankruptcy was not a distant thing, and there are examples in front of him.

Min realized that if Chris Paul left the Hornets, it could be an opportunity for him.

Because Paul has always restrained the Clippers and Curry, if he can go to a strong team in the West, he may be able to firmly suppress the Clippers.

"Now the Clippers are hovering on the edge of the playoffs, which is not good for me, but after all, they are only on the edge of the playoffs, and they are not at the level of competing for a championship. As long as there is a tiger in the mountains, this monkey will not be able to claim the king. As long as the Clippers are not called kings, if they survive for a few years, they may be like the Wasps and go bankrupt! ”

The bankruptcy of the Hornets undoubtedly gave Min Congda a great inspiration.

Looking back at the Hornets' experience over the past few years, Paul was selected in 2005 and began to rise.

The combination of Paul + David West + Tyson Chandler made it to second place in the West in '08.

Paul almost won the MVP, losing to the Spurs in the Western Conference semifinals.

After that, the Hornets began to gradually decline, the record was not good, the attendance was not good, and now it is bankrupt.

Imagine if the Hornets had beaten the Spurs in 2008 and reached the Western Conference Finals.

With the configuration of the Hornets team at that time, it is not impossible to compete with the Lakers.

Imagine again if it weren't for the Grizzlies assisting the Lakers in '08 and giving it to Lakers Pau Gasol.

The Lakers will not rise again, then the MVP of '08 will be Paul, and the Hornets will be the first in the West.

If the Hornets are first in the West, they will not play the Spurs in the semifinals, and may only play the Spurs in the Western Conference.

Faced with the temptation of the Finals, the Hornets may make it to the Finals in one go, after all, they and the Spurs are within a fraction of a second, and the loss in the semifinals is obviously a matter of luck and experience.

Once the Hornets reach the Finals, even if they can't beat the Celtics, it will be a huge improvement for the team.

Market capitalization, box office, and player value, the boss will definitely increase investment, and the team's box office will rise.

Paul, who won the MVP, will definitely not leave the Hornets, and the team will certainly not go bankrupt.

"So, where is the key, the key is the Grizzlies to assist the Lakers Gasol's deal! If it weren't for the Lakers to assist Gasol's trade, the current Hornets wouldn't have gone bankrupt! Because they created a tiger in the West, so that other teams have no hope of rising, and some teams are fighting and scattering. The team lineup is scattered, the box office is not good, and the team is naturally not good! ”

After this logical analysis, Min Congda felt that he had discovered the bankruptcy code!

Looking back on the history of the West in the past 10 years, it is actually the history of the Lake-horse hegemony, how many teams have the two teams broken up together?

The Kings in '02, the Timberwolves in '04, the SuperSonics in '05, the Suns in '06 and '07, the Hornets in '08, and the Nuggets in '09.

These teams were all arrogant for a while, but because they couldn't make a breakthrough in the playoffs, they eventually fell quickly and withdrew from the competition stage.

The Kings and Timberwolves have not slowed down until now, the core has retreated, and the trade transaction can't even enter the playoffs, let alone compete for hegemony.

SuperSonic, simply the team is gone.

The sun has been supporting for a long time, and this year it finally couldn't hold on, so Xiao Si went to the big city of New York.

The Nuggets were the same, they were broken up, and Anthony made a trade in February of this year, going to New York to join up with Smalls.

Now the Hornets are following in the footsteps of these teams, and Paul also wants to go to the big city, the big team.

Think about it, if any of these teams could make it to the finals and win a championship, would it still be the way it is today, becoming the nourishment for big city teams?

If the Kings win the championship in '02, even if the back declines, Webb and others will stay, and the team will go too far into a rebuilding state and not completely overturn and start over.

If the Timberwolves can enter the Finals in 04, Garnett will definitely stay, so that the team can continue to strengthen and impact the championship, and will attract more famous veterans to hug their thighs.

If the supersonic goes further, will Seattle let it go to Russia?

Among the many strong teams in the West, the only team that has not been broken up by the Lakehorses is the Mavericks.

On the one hand, because at their core, Nowitzki is European, low-key loyal, and just wants to stay in Dallas.

Changed to a local player, based on the Mavericks' achievements in the past two years, he would have left with a shout.

Another important reason is that the Mavericks made it to the Finals, and in '06 they took out the peak Spurs.

They have the experience of really stepping on the highest stage, so no matter how miserable the playoffs have been in the past few years, the important Nowitzki is still there, and the Mavericks' breath has not dissipated.

"If the Mavericks didn't enter the finals in '06 and were hacked again in '07, it is estimated that they would have dispersed now, right? Even if Nowitzki doesn't want to go, Cuban will trade Nowitzki away, and you haven't proven yourself. ”

Min Congda carefully sorted out the history of the West in the past ten years, and realized that if you want to break up a rising small and medium-sized team like the Clippers, you must raise the Tigers!

The Spurs, the Tiger, are back in first place in the West after two years of depression.

And the Lakers won two consecutive championships, and their majesty still exists, and they are still pressing on the heads of all teams in the West.

However, both teams have a problem, that is, the core squad is aging, and it is estimated that it will not be able to jump for a few years.

If the Spurs or the Lakers can get Paul, it will not be a problem to continue his life for three to five years!

"We were killed by the Lakers last season. If you make the playoffs again this season, it is estimated that you will be killed by the Spurs again. Next season, Paul goes to a strong team, the Lakers or the Spurs, and we will be killed! When the time comes, won't Curry and the others be impetuous and want to leave? ”

"If I'm not mistaken, Chris Paul was at his peak in his third season, was killed by the Spurs, and then went all the way down and wanted to leave, right? Haha, it turns out that Wasp has already written the script for me, and I just copy the homework! ”

The only question now is, where exactly is Paul going in the summer? Pay close attention, if there is any situation when the time comes, I must push it! ”

Min Congda made up his mind that he must raise a tiger in the west this summer.

This tiger is going to be a roadblock in the way of the Clippers' future, holding the Clippers back until it goes bankrupt.

After thinking of a new idea, Min Congda's mood that had been depressed for more than a month finally cleared and he regained his confidence!

He looked in the mirror and looked at his dark circles and slightly emaciated face, and he knew he had to pull himself together.

"Starting today, quit drinking!"
