This year, without the participation of Wang Shuo and Jordan, the Wizards' championship parade is obviously a lot colder.

However, compared to this deserted parade without meritorious coaches and city heroes, what made Wizards owner Pauline feel most heartbroken was the scene that happened when the Wizards' championship float drove to the mcI center:

In the crowd, I don't know which buddy roared, and then, the sounds of "Wang Shuo" and "Mai Buckle" shook the sky of Washington like a huge thunder!

After Unseld's departure, Danny Ward, who was on temporary top, was a big two after this championship parade.

Because this summer, Hamilton and Artey, who will end their "child labor contract", have made it clear that they will not renew their contracts with the Wizards.

"I can't play for a team that can't even accommodate my own meritorious coach and city heroes.

I know that this summer, I am not a full free agent.

But if the Wizards are going to keep me, then I won't play even a minute for this team. Hamilton said in an interview.

Even Hamilton, who has always been well-behaved, has such a tough attitude at this moment, let alone Artest, who is known for his iron and blood?

Aware of his limitations, Ward submitted his resignation to Pauline within two days.

And at this moment, Bolin suddenly felt what it means to be "lonely".

In the past two days, before Jordan even "declared war" on him, the Wizards have come to the verge of "disintegration".

In desperation, Pauline had to ask Phil Chenier, the Wizards legend who won the NbA championship for the team with Unseld and Hayes.

"Help me, Bill! I'm on the verge of collapse now, please, for the sake of our friendship over the years. ”

On the phone, listening to Pauline's helpless voice with a hint of exhaustion, although Cheniere didn't want to wade into the troubled waters of the Wizards, he still gave his solution after a while.

"As far as I know, Wang didn't say anything specific about what happened between you and Michael during the interview, right?" Cheniell asked over the phone.

Polin nodded, "There is no contradiction between the team and the king, I think, he is also a 'victim' of this matter." ”

Hearing this, Chenille suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's easy, hurry up and find someone to build a statue for him outside the mcI center." ”

Pauline was a little surprised, "But he's only coached the Wizards for two seasons......."

Cheniere retorted, "But in those two seasons, he also brought two NbA championships to the Wizards!"

In NbA, there are more teams that have not won a championship, and neither you nor I can deny that Wang brought the Wizards the best two years in team history. ”

Pauline said, "Well, I'll find someone and build a statue for him." But what about Michael? He is now determined to fight a lawsuit against me. ”

"Whether he wants to go to court with you or not, you're going to have to put his jersey retirement on the agenda," Cheniere said.

Also, no matter what he says to you and what he says about you in the future, you have to keep silent in front of the media as much as possible.

And, in turn, he will do whatever it takes to brag about him, praise him, and thank him and Wang for bringing the two championships to this team. ”

Pauline sensed that Cheniere was crazy, and said, "You mean, even if he scolds me, I have to smile in turn?" ”

Chenier said, "Boss, this is the only solution.

Otherwise, once all NbA players are on the opposite side of the Washington Wizards......

At that point, you'll lose more than just Richard Hamilton and Ron Artest. ”

Bolin let out a long sigh and said, "Is there really no way for the Wizards to keep Richard and Ron?"

Ron was fine, he was traded back from Chicago halfway through after all, but Richard ...... But it's a rookie that we've picked ourselves. ”

"This year, don't keep the players whose contracts have expired, because forcing them to stay will only be counterproductive," Cheniere said.

Boss, now all you need to do is find a way to win back the hearts of the remaining players after building a statue for the king and putting Michael's jersey retirement ceremony on the agenda!

I've been following the Wizards for the past two years, and even with Richard and Ron gone, the legacy that the King left to the Wizards is endless. ”

After listening to Chenier's idea, Pauline's mood suddenly improved a lot, "Phil, are you willing to be the general manager of the team and come back to help me?" ”

Cheniell smiled and said, "Boss, it's not that I don't want to give up this commentary job in my hands right now.

But in my opinion, instead of going back to the team to help you, you need a friend who can be a little bit further away and help you from a perspective that can see the situation clearly. ”

Pauline asked, "Then can you recommend a general manager who can stabilize the current situation?" ”

Cheniere thought for a moment and said, "Boss, go find Erwin!"

Although he has been living a lifeless squire since retiring, for now, I think, only his prestige can help you get through it. ”

In NbA, owning a statue of the team has always been regarded as the crowning honour.

Take the Jerry West statue outside the Staples Center.

Take the Bill Russell statue in Boston's City Hall Square, for example.

Another example is the statue of Auerbach sitting in the coach's seat and pulling out a cigar.

But these legends mentioned above ......

Basically, after the end of their careers as players or coaches, the team hires craftsmen to create statues specially for them in recognition of their outstanding contributions to the team.

And compared to the players......

In the NbA, so far, except for the famous "Cardinal" Auerbach, the rest of the NbA legends who have won the great honor of the team statue have basically won it by virtue of their outstanding performance in their playing days.

Therefore, on the 24th, when the Washington Wizards officially announced that they will build a statue of the team's meritorious head coach Wang Shuo as soon as possible and stand it outside the mcI Center......

There was an uproar in the market!

Since retiring, Cheniere, who has been a commentator on cSN TV for more than 20 years, does know how to turn public opinion around.

At least now, Wang Shuo's fans' previous feelings of "unease" for Wang Shuo were instantly soothed by the statue of Wang Shuo that was about to be erected.

Because of the Wizards, we still respect their meritorious head coach!

"It's incredible, he's only a few months away from turning 29, but he's now a legend with a statue of the team!"

On the 24th, Donnie Jones interviewed Wang Shuo by phone and asked him what he thought of the Wizards' preparation to build a statue for him.

In this regard, Wang Shuo replied: "People always say that a person cannot become a legend before he dies. But now, I think you've seen it too, I'm a living legend! ”

On the same day, Jordan also called Wang Shuo, "Wang, now you have to help again!" ”

Hearing this, Wang Shuo asked curiously: "Michael, how do you want me to help you?" ”

Jordan said with a tired face: "I have found the best team of lawyers, but they all told me......

In this case, my probability of winning is almost zero. ”

Wang Shuo thought to himself: As far as you and Paulin made a verbal promise, and didn't leave any actual evidence, it would be hellish if you could win this lawsuit.

However, resisting the urge to complain about Jordan in his heart, Wang Shuo still said, "What are you going to do?" ”

Jordan said: "It's because I don't know what to do, that's why I called you to ask you!" ”

Wang Shuo said after a long sigh: "Michael, I am not a lawyer, and I can't help you with legal matters.

But in my opinion, since there is no turning back between you and I now, why don't you take another way to get the best interest for you? ”

Jordan hurriedly asked, "In what way?" ”

Wang Shuo replied: "Externally, you still keep a high profile, and whenever you meet people, you will express your dissatisfaction with Abel Boleyn, thinking that it is he who has caused you to not be able to win three consecutive championships for the Wizards."

Internally, no real action is taken. ”

Jordan was shocked and said, "You mean, only strongly condemn, but not take any action?" ”

Wang Shuo said: "Believe me, there must be a master behind Abel Bolin who is giving him advice. Now no matter how much you scold Abel Boleyn, he will only kneel and lick you in turn.

In the event that this lawsuit does not bring you any real benefits, as long as you keep the condemnation of Abel Pauline, the fans will always be on your side.

And I guess, you don't want to completely offend the fans in Washington, do you? ”

Jordan nodded.

In this life, compared with Jordan's previous life when he left the Wizards, he was disgusted with dogs, in Washington, Jordan's support rate is even higher than that of the big leader of the rice grain family.

Just because Jordan hates Pauline doesn't mean he hates the city of Washington, and it doesn't mean he hates the fans here.

In addition, at present, Jordan is also planning to lead a new NbA team to return to NbA, so after listening to Wang Shuo's suggestion, Boss Qiao's pattern has been opened up again.

Instead of waging a war that you have no chance of winning, why not use it to gain the support of everyone for yourself?

It is......

After Boss Qiao agreed to his suggestion, even Wang Shuo couldn't help but feel sorry for the "pride of the sky" who was about to step into NbA.

Because in the future, the reason why "that man" can covet Jordan's status as the first person in history is mainly because Jordan himself is also crazy to death after retiring.

And the magnitude of his work is even more outrageous than his.

If Wang Shuo remembers correctly, in his memory, Jordan will not only offend the fans who killed Washington, but also all the players of the Washington Wizards at that time because of this incident.

In addition, after becoming a capitalist, it will become the public enemy of all NbA players in the new era because of the change of position.

Before 2010, there were many young players in the NbA who would idolize Jordan.

But after that future shutdown, many young players were dismissive of Jordan.

In fact, when it comes to dealing with retirement and post-retirement image, in NbA, only Kobe Bryant can get a high score.

So, don't look at O'Neal complaining about Kobe Bryant's lack of culture.

But in fact, many NbA college players, including him, do not have the pattern of Kobe, a high school player.

……

On the 27th, Wang Shuo, who is already a "living legend", watched this year's NbA draft through televising.

There are no surprises and no suspense.

The Cleveland Cavaliers used their first-round pick to select Akron-born "Okron" LeBron James!

In the front battle room of the Cavaliers, Mike Malone, who will become the head coach of the Cavaliers next season, hugged his father excitedly at this moment......

He is also his first assistant coach for the new season, Brandon Malone.

"Great, now just give me a year and I can build this Cavaliers into a playoff team!

Give me two years, and I'll be able to lead the Cavaliers into the ranks of the Eastern Conference powerhouses!

Give me three years and I'll be able to lead this Cavaliers to the championship! ”

Little Malone looked at Old Malone excitedly and said.

Hearing that, as a key figure in Mike Malone's ability to become the head coach of the Cavaliers this time, Brandon Malone always feels that his son has become more and more "shimmering" after following Wang Shuo for two years.

No!

Can you stop being so crazy just yet?

Ren Wang Shuo dares to be so crazy because he has this ability and that talent, but you are just an NbA rookie head coach now!

"By the way, Brandon, when this draft is over, remember to help me contact LeBron James's agent.

I have some training priorities that I want to explain to LeBron James. Gracefully pulling out a cigar from his pocket, Mike Malone, who was imitating Wang Shuo at the moment, said to his first assistant coach, Brandon Malone.

Seeing this, Old Malone immediately took off his suit, "Now, I'll put aside my role as a knight assistant first, and then talk to you as a father." ”

Hearing this, Mike Malone immediately became stupid, "No, father...... Can you save me some face, even if you want to beat me, can you wait until you get home? ”

You see, your dad will always be your dad.

No matter how arrogant Mike Malone is at the moment, as long as Brandon Malone moves out of his fatherhood, Mike Malone should still kneel.

"Mike, remember, LeBron was destined to be different.

The management and the owners value him very much, so I have to warn you now that you have to put yourself in the right position when the new season starts.

Otherwise, you and I will both have a good chance of losing our jobs, you know? Looking at Xiao Ma Long, Old Ma Long said earnestly.

"I see, father, but I really have some advice for LeBron James." Xiao Ma Long said with a well-behaved face.

Old Malone let out a long sigh and said, "Let's talk about it." ”

"I've seen a lot of LeBron James' games in high school.

In my opinion, his physicality is absolutely mythical.

But his fundamentals are pretty bad.

Let's start with his dribbling, which seems to me to be quite stiff, with a poor sense of the ball, and in addition to his frequent walking, he also lacks fluidity in his movements.

I'm going to hire a coach who is good at dribbling to help him build on this shortcoming in the summer.

In addition, he also has problems with his shooting movement, and when shooting, his legs will always be unnaturally thrown out, which is difficult to keep his crosshairs.

Therefore, I also plan to hire a shooting coach to coach his shooting skills.

Secondly, his playing habits are also very poor.

The scout's report says he's observant, but I've found out through the game that he's been watching the ball for a little too long. With that kung fu, we can all play two more offensive rounds!

Father, believe me, as long as LeBron can make up for these shortcomings of his, he will definitely surpass everyone in the future, as Wang Shuo said! Mike Malone said.

Looking at his son, the elder Malone said: "I also know what you said about LeBron's shortcomings, but Mike, remember, when giving advice to LeBron in the future, you must pay attention to the way you speak."

Sometimes, some advice is right, but if you don't know how to speak correctly, then even if you're right, people won't listen to you. ”

Mike Malone spread his hands and said, "I know my father, don't keep talking about me." ”

Old Malone let out a long sigh and said, "Also, what did you say earlier about making the playoffs one year, leading the team into the ranks of strong teams in two years, and hitting the championship in three years..... Remember, don't say that to anyone in the future.

Because in NbA, not every coach is Wang Shuo.

Giving promises indiscriminately is likely to make you doomed in the future! ”

At this moment, Mike Malone smiled again in the left ear and out the right ear: "Father, you don't know, the new season NbA is very likely to cancel the 'hand-check' rule.

Last season, Wang, Wang, and two other Mikes, we all talked about it, and we agreed that after the NbA removes the rule, as it gets easier to break through, the team's offensive width will also become wider.

LeBron has an epic impact, and as long as he can rush up, there are few teams in NbA that can stop him! ”

Looking at this moment, his confident son, for a moment, old Malone suddenly regretted it and suggested to the team that he should be the head coach of this Cavaliers.

How to say it.

In the eyes of old Ma Long, his son must have a certain coaching talent and ability.

But in the complex rivers and lakes of NbA......

Talent and ability don't make the difference.

At the draft meeting, when the old Malone and the little Malone were having a conversation, many NbA teams also completed their selections in the draft year of 2003.

The trajectory of history shifted dramatically on this day.

With the second pick in the first round, the Detroit Pistons quickly reached a deal with the Memphis Grizzlies after selecting Darko Milicic.

Having failed to acquire Gasol in the 2001 draft, Grizzlies management fell in love with the handsome guy from the Balkans at a trial this year when Grizzlies scouts discovered that the seven-foot-tall man could dribble like a guard.

In the future, many people say that only more than talent, Milicic is even better than Jokic.

In front of the TV, after Wang Shuo learned of the deal, he immediately became interested in Milicic's future.

Because as one of the few teams in the league that is very patient with newcomers on the inside......

Wang Shuo knows that Milicic will definitely get more playing opportunities and a better environment to grow in Memphis than he did under Larry Brown.

To get Milicic, the Grizzlies sent their star power forward Sharif Abdul Rahim to Motor City.

At the same time, to match the salary of the deal, the Pistons also sent Selke Reblaxia to the Grizzlies two second-round picks from the Grizzlies in 2004 and 2006.

After this deal is completed, the new Pistons Five Tigers will be made up of Big Ben, Raheem, Prince, Ray Allen, who is still on cheap contracts, and Billups, who was also signed by the Pistons with an annual salary of less than 6 million!

Yes, you read that right!

This Pistons, after getting Raheem, an All-Star power forward, theoretically, they even have the possibility of strengthening!

In the absence of being picked by Larry Brown, and not being able to use his team-building talents due to Dallas's own reasons in the future, Rick Carlisle, a team-building genius, has quietly built the Pistons into a galactic battleship!

In the new season, because the Wizards of the post-Wang Shuo era still have a lot of problems to deal with, the Pistons will undoubtedly become the Eastern talker in the 03/04 season!

Then, with the Nuggets selecting Anthony, the Raptors selecting Bosh, and the Heat selecting Wade, the "Four Heroes of the Wind and Dust" in Wang Shuo's memory is currently missing only Chris Paul.

It's a pity that Paul has to wait until 2005 to run for election, otherwise, as a cannon honey leader, Wang Shuo will have to use his talented coaching talent to lead Paul to win his five, six, seven or eight championships, and beat the "ugly faces" of those cannon blacks in the future!

In addition, at the draft, Colangelo Jr. also made good on his promise.

After using the team's 17th pick in the first round this year to select Zach Kabakappa, the Suns quickly closed the trade with the Bulls.

In the deal, the Suns will send Cabakapa, Joe Johnson, plus a second-round pick from the Bulls in 2005 in exchange for Tyson Chandler.

That is, immediately after this deal, Suns fans were a little confused:

Why should we give the Bulls their "parallel champions"?

Chicago fans, on the other hand, feel that the team's uniform team has finally been a person:

Oh my God, "Montenegrin Nowitzki" Kabakakapajacho Johnson, and gave us a second-round pick?

What kind of deal is this? We're just robbing!

No way.

Even though Chandler is already recognized as a "parallel importer" in the world, he is still a champion, and he is also a high school student.

Therefore, in this deal, the Suns will also have to show sincerity to impress Chicago.

After all, if Chandler were to play in the future, wouldn't it look like Chicagoans were stupid?

And in addition to trading Chandler, the Suns also made a deal with the Hawks on draft day.

The Suns traded the team's 2004 first-round pick and Casey Jacobson from the Hawks for Boris Dio, whom they had just drafted with the 21st pick in the first round this year.

As a playmaker striker, Wang Shuo remembers that after being selected by the Hawks, Dior has not been reused.

But after joining the Suns in the 05/06 season, the average of this product quickly skyrocketed to 13.3 points, 6.9 rebounds and 6.2 assists per game.

In Wang Shuo's view, in addition to the helmsman at the helm of the current sun, the deputy helmsman is equally important.

Therefore, before the start of the draft, when asked by Colangelo Jr. if he had a special favorite player, Wang Shuo thought of Dior almost immediately.

The Hawks are happy to complete this deal with the Suns.

With the team currently in a state of confusion, the Hawks are now frantically hoarding draft picks.

In the eyes of the Hawks, in the powerful West, the Suns will definitely not make the playoffs next season, so they did not hesitate to complete the trade with the Suns.

As for why the Suns were "blackmailed" by the Hawks in this deal, Jacobson was "blackmailed" by the Hawks......

Mainly because 03 is a big year for the draft, the value of this rookie will generally be higher.

After the first round of the draft, Wang Shuo turned off the TV.

The Suns were traded out early in this year's second-round draft, and Wang Shuo didn't have any players he particularly wanted in the second round in '03, so Wang Shuo didn't plan to waste time and continued to pay attention to this year's draft.

But before the start of the second-round draft, Colangelo Jr. still called Wang Shuo and asked him if the team needed to buy a second-round pick to select the only Chinese player in the 03 golden generation:

Xue Yuyang.

As a name that even many Chinese fans may not be able to think of in the future, Wang Shuo smiled on the phone and said: "Brian, if the Sun has money and no place to spend it, you can call my account directly."

Even if Xue Yuyang chooses, he will not be able to land in NbA in the future, and his contract with his parent team is very complicated, and it is not something you and I can handle. ”

After listening to Wang Shuo's explanation, little Colangelo suddenly let out a long sigh.

"Then wait for July 1, let's officially sign the contract!" On the phone, little Colangelo, who was afraid that Wang Shuo would be hooked up by others, said.

In fact, Colangelo Jr.'s concerns are not unfounded.

Because shortly after the draft, Scott Reden, the general manager of the Knicks, called Wang Shuo.

As one of the first general managers of NbA to discover the potential of the Chinese market, many years later, people learned that the team that wanted Yao Ming the most back then, in addition to Houston xx, also included the New York Knicks.

As early as 2001, Raidon flew to China several times to personally inspect Yao Ming's performance.

It's a pity that no matter how much the Knicks want Yao Ming, they can't change it, and Stern in 2002 wanted to save the space city market after losing the "big dream".

However, compared to Yao Ming, this life is ......

Redden and the Knicks obviously want Wang Shuo, the popular star coach.

As a media mogul, James Dolan is well aware of the value of Wang Shuo.

It's just that......

Knicks this team......

If you look at its history, you'll see that in history, they have a lot of good ideas.

In terms of execution, this team can only be described as a mess.

Like the future Stephen Curry.

Although New York unfortunately missed out on Curry, it was because of Nelson Sr.'s unpopular truncation.

But the question is, since you Knicks also want Curry, why can't you just trade up for a more reliable pick?

As early as last year, when Wang Shuo announced through Donnie Jones that he would leave Washington after the 02/03 season, Dolan and Redden were interested in Wang Shuo.

But it wasn't until after the 2003 draft that the Knicks got their start on the move.

No, no, there won't really be an NbA team that will abide by the relevant rules and regulations of NbA, and I don't know that hooking up with other people's stars and head coaches can be "quietly Mimi" in secret, right?

"I'm sorry, Scott, I don't want to lie to you, since I now have a clear goal, so you might as well look elsewhere!" On the phone, Wang Shuo decisively rejected Lei Dengdao.

Hearing this, Lei Deng, who still didn't give up, said: "But you haven't officially signed a contract after all!" Trust me, Wang, what other NbA teams can give you, the Knicks can give you the same, and even more! ”

Wang Shuo doesn't want to be a dishonest person, because in the NbA world, once he loses his integrity, other teams will inevitably have opinions about him in the future.

So, in order to make Lei Deng completely dead, I saw Wang Shuo say: "Then can you give me Tim Duncan and Yao Ming?" If you can give me Tim Duncan and Yao Ming, I'll coach the Knicks! ”

Seeing this, Lei Deng, who knew that Wang Shuo had made up his mind, hated those peers who did not abide by the rules of NbA at this moment.

And after hanging up the phone call with Wang Shuo......

Lei Deng, who knew that he had messed up the things that his boss Dolan had confessed, conveyed Wang Shuo's sentence to Dolan while taking the blame:

As long as you can get Tim Duncan and Yao Ming, I'll coach the Knicks.

Originally, Raidon thought that Dolan would scold him for scolding him, but who would have thought that Dolan stared at him with a puzzled look on his face for a long time.

"Boss?" Looking at Dolan, Redden spoke cautiously.

"No, why are you still standing here? Go on! Go get the Yao Ming and Tim he wants! ”

Dolan feels that in these years, these people are becoming more and more blind, and they don't even have this bit of execution, will I really be able to see the day of the Knicks' revival in my lifetime?

"But the boss...... Both of these are not for sale by their respective teams, and besides, what leverage can we trade them for now? Raidon said with a look of embarrassment.

"Then you can't figure it out? If we can't get it this year, then we can't mess up next season and then free up salary space by the way to prepare for the future?

Are you the general manager of the team, or am I the general manager of the team? Dolan said speechlessly.

Raidon was a little puzzled and said, "Can ...... With no certainty that Wang will come to coach the Knicks in the future, is it necessary to change the team's future goals for the sake of a joke? ”

The Dolans are stupid.

Completely stupid.

Because he never expected that there would be such a smart general manager in small New York.

"Do you really not understand the king's voice?

His words seem to be a joke, but they are actually telling us that he will change the team in the future!

Otherwise, when he's on the phone with you, he won't make this joke with you, but will reject you sternly, you know? Dolan, who has many friends in the political and business circles, almost immediately heard the ambiguity in Wang Shuo's joke.

In Dolan's opinion, Wang Shuo is usually an old scumbag who eats in the pot and looks at the bowl.

And under Dolan's nod, Redden also reacted, "Boss, you mean...... Are we not preparing for next season, but when the future king intends to change teams again? ”

Dolan patted his head and said, "Yes——! Now that you understand, get me a plan!

If you don't know which direction to start, I can tell you right now......

Tim Duncan's contract extension with the Spurs was just announced today. ”

In 2000, Duncan, who was ultimately hooked up with the Magic, ended up signing a four-year contract with the Spurs, but he would have a player option for the final year.

And because the team's performance in the past three years has not met Duncan's expectations, Duncan chose to refuse the seven-year contract that the Spurs intended to offer him this summer.

And, with the decision to use the player option to jump out of the final year of his contract this summer, Duncan is currently only willing to sign a contract extension with the Spurs for a total of up to two years.

Duncan's idea is simple: in the next two years, if the Spurs still can't live up to his expectations, then he will be a free agent and pursue his dream in a different place.

At the same time, in the worst-case scenario, this two-year contract extension is also his kindness to Sima Pobo and the last reward for Spurs fans.

In Duncan's view, after this two-year contract extension, he has dedicated eight years of his youth to the Spurs, and in any case, he is worthy of the Spurs' cultivation of him.

But if the Spurs only want him to sign that seven-year contract, Duncan's answer is simple:

To hell with that damn loyalty!

Uncle, I won't play with you anymore!

Regarding Duncan's persistence, Sima Bobo did not choose to force it, but smiled and presented him with the short-term contract he wanted.

In Popovich's opinion, no matter what, keeping Duncan right now is the most important thing!

As for the team's performance over the past three years......

If it weren't for that damn Wang Shuo, how could Spurs have fallen to where they are today?

Fortunately, no matter where Wang Shuo goes to coach next season, he will not be able to pull up a team that can compete with the Spurs in the first place.

In Sima Bobo's eyes, as long as the Spurs can win a championship in the next two years, then at that time, it's a big deal, and then hand Duncan a long-term contract again!

In short, the most important thing is to leave people behind first.

What Popovich didn't know, however.....

In the summer of 2003, with the emergence of Wang Shuo, history has changed dramatically, and now, there is a team that is planning to use his "beloved apprentice" as an important bargaining chip to hook up with Wang Shuo in the future.

"I see, it's not hard to get Tim! Because even if he will sign this two-year contract with the Spurs, two years later......

He will be a free agent!

Now, the only difficulty is to stock up enough chips to get Yao Ming back from Houston! After reading the newspaper, Raidon suddenly realized.

"And the combination of Yao and King ...... You should know what this will mean for New York. Dolan reminded Raiden again.

What does that mean?

It means that the New York Knicks will become the biggest beneficiary of the cake in the Chinese market!

And judging by Wang Shuo's coaching talent in the Wizards.

As long as he can lead the Knicks to a championship by then.

Nanicks......

"Wang is a very ambitious person, although we don't want to admit it, we still have to admit it.

As long as he can lead the Knicks to a championship, he will surpass all other NbA coaches in history.

After all......

No one knows better than me what a terrible team the Knicks are. After getting up and patting Redden on the shoulder, Dolan said.

Hearing this, this time Raidon understood what Dolan meant.

That's ......

As the worst team in NbA, the Knicks will also be very attractive to the ambitious Wang Shuo.

Because in the Knicks......

It only takes one crown for him to be the best of all time!

On this night, James Dolan dared to bet on the future of the Knicks precisely because he saw Wang Shuo's lofty ambitions.

And on July 1, as Wang Shuo officially signed with the Phoenix Suns, the Chicagoans, who were complacent in the draft, were immediately dumbfounded.

Could it be, Tyson Chandler......

Really a genius?

In the rivers and lakes of NbA, even if you are as stupid as a bull, it is impossible not to see that this transaction is from Wang Shuo.

On this day, Phoenix was boiling!

On this day, the fans who felt that Phoenix had been saved rushed out of the house almost immediately, running around to tell each other:

That NbA "living legend", the man who wrote two years of glorious history with Michael Jordan, he is now ......

Arrived in his loyal Phoenix!

According to the previously drafted agreement, Wang Shuo will reach a "1+1" contract with the Suns, with the same annual salary as when he coached with the Wizards, which is $10 million.

Wang Shuo was reluctant to sign a long-term contract with the Sun because as the starting point of his "nomadic" career, he never regarded Phoenix as the end of his "nomadic" career.

In addition, if a long-term contract is signed, Wang Shuo's annual salary will inevitably be affected.

After all, at this time in 2003, who would dare to give a coach a 5-year 50 million sky-high contract?

Even if this person is Wang Shuo, the sun, who is not wealthy, does not dare to give it.

Because if Wang Shuo fails to coach in the future, how will you fire him then?

You must know that in NbA, not every team has the courage and financial resources of the Knicks, and dares to fire the head coach of the team in the face of sky-high compensation.

Of course.

On the 1st, Wang Shuo also used his domineering answer to make the Colangelo father and son, who had been worried about the compensation issue before, feel ashamed.

In an interview, I saw Wang Shuo said: "This time I chose to coach the Suns, and the reason why I only signed a 1+1 contract is because in my opinion, if I can't make this team change next season, then I will get out of it myself after next season!"

Because as an NbA 'living legend', I'm not so cheeky and waiting for the team to fire me! ”

At the press conference, all reporters were stunned by Wang Shuo's domineering answer!

It's just that what this group of people don't know is......

The reason why Wang Shuo is so domineering in his decision is because he is already prepared for his future:

That is, no matter which team he coaches in the future, he will choose the "1+1" "nomadic standard cooperation" to facilitate his job hopping.

And it was also later on the 1st that little Colangelo found Wang Shuo with an excited face.

"Wang, there are teams willing to trade Stephen Marbury with us!" Colangelo Jr. said.

Wang Shuo was curious: "Which team?" ”

Colangelo Jr. replied, "Philadelphia 76ers, they're going to trade us with Allen Iverson!" Of course, we need to pay a little more. ”

Alan......

Iverson?

At this moment, Wang Shuo, who felt that the historical trajectory of this life was about to deviate to Mars, never expected that the 76ers would agree to trade their city heroes.

So, or rather, before the development of social networks, Wang Shuo's bad habit of reading newspapers too casually and only liking to glance casually at TV had to be changed

In fact, as early as the 02/03 Western Conference semifinals, 76ers management started the idea of trading Iverson.

There is no other reason for this......

Mainly because Larry Brown was discredited by Wang Shuo's team, he exposed negative news about Iverson that was far more fierce and ruthless than Wang Shuo's previous life.

In an interview with Larry Brown, Iverson was almost described by him as a human scum.

What is never trained, what is not adjustable, what is ambiguous with the gangster, anyway, as long as it is the angle that can be sprayed, Brown basically sprays it all over.

Among them, the point that the 76ers management wants to trade Iverson the most is undoubtedly the "ambiguous relationship with the gang".

It's no secret that since Stern took over, Stern has been looking for ways to improve NbA's image.

And now, Iverson's image can be described as devastating.

At the same time, the 76ers management was also worried that the team's new coach D'Antoni would not be able to suppress Iverson, so in order to reduce losses as much as possible, they also started trading Iverson a few years earlier than Wang Shuo remembered.

So now the question arises.

Is it true that Brown said this?

The answer is that some are true, but some are purely alarmist.

Because Iverson's social network, Iverson is not even a "street runner" compared to those NbA players who really have an ambiguous relationship with the gang.

As for training, as far as Iverson was in the 76ers, the high-intensity games, and frequent injuries, even if he wanted to practice, he had to be able to practice.

And unadjustable......

Iverson is a very personal player in this regard.

But compared to the true prickly head in the sun array who has not yet been baptized at this moment......

You may not believe it, but in Wang Shuo's opinion, Iverson is still barely capable of being influenced.

In his mind, Wang Shuo quickly rethought the personnel structure of the Suns next season.

First of all......

As a small defender with a height of only "183" cm.

Iverson's defense is indeed a big problem.

But the Suns will have a "boxing champion" next season, as well as Marion, and Bale, who is negotiating a contract with the Suns......

In Wang Shuo's view, Iverson's defensive problems are not a big problem.

Because no matter how bad his defense is, it can't be worse than Nash.

As for the offense......

Iverson's playmaking skills certainly can't match Nashby's.

But with Dio on the bench, Wang Shuo doesn't think that Iverson, who played "quarterback" in his early years, will not match the Suns' tactics next season.

In Philadelphia, because "the team can only play on me", there are a lot of balls, and Iverson has to play.

But in the Suns, Wang Shuo believes that Iverson can completely optimize the shooting structure while stably delivering cannonballs to his teammates.

In the 06/07 and 07/08 seasons, Iverson was more efficient during his time with the Nuggets than when he played with the 76ers.

Because he also had Carmelo Anthony and J.R. Smith by his side at the time.

In addition, with Iverson still in his prime, there is good news for him.

That is, NbA is a year ahead of Wang Shuo's memory, and the "hand-check" rule has been canceled.

In the upcoming 03/04 season, in order to encourage teams in the league to learn from the Wizards led by Wang Shuo, Stern has officially announced on July 1 that the "hand-check" rule will be abolished.

For a top-tier striker like Iverson, he may not be as good as Nash in terms of playmaking, but he is better than Nash in terms of attacking and hard solutions.

And, if the Sun agrees to the deal.

Then they don't even have to wait until '04/05 to challenge for the championship.

Instead, from the 03/04 season, they can become a strong contender for the championship!

Because Wang Shuo knows very well how chaotic the West and the entire league will be next season!

No doubt.

On this day, a trade proposal for the 76ers.

Wang Shuo's heart was moved.
