"Lin Yu, this plan of yours sounds very tempting, but it is very difficult to operate, and it can even be said that it is impossible at all."

"Jalen Rose, one of the Five Tigers, entered the league with the 13th pick in '94, averaged 10 points and 6 assists per game in his sophomore year, shooting 48 percent, and he is a swingman with unlimited potential."

"We at the Bullets simply don't have the chips to trade such a high-value rookie."

Unselde quickly pointed out the flaws in Lin Yu's plan, and Pauline next to him smiled silently.

Lin Yu was not in a hurry, and took over the conversation and said: "Jalen Rose's value is indeed very high, but we can exchange George Muresan for it." ”

"A center who averages 14.5 points, 9.6 rebounds and 2.3 blocks per game is the highest center in history, and the key is that he is still so young, it is not difficult to trade Jalen Rose at all."

"As for the remaining two tigers, as far as I know, they are all unemployed now, and we only need a base salary to sign them."

George Muresan is the current Indian center of the Bullets, with a height of 231 cm, and an average of nearly 15+10+2 per game last season.

Pauline couldn't help but laugh, "Kid, of course George can be replaced by Jalen Rose, but what about after the change?" We didn't have a centre-forward and our results plummeted. ”

"You don't think those fans are watching the Michigan Five Tigers lose, do you?"

In the face of Unselde and Paulin's successive questions, Lin Yu was not in a hurry, and these doubts were all within his expectations.

"Muresan doesn't fit into our Bullets' offensive and defensive system, no one can deny that."

"His movement speed, whether it is lateral movement or retreat, is all ridiculously slow, how many rounds does the Bullets have to have in a game because Muresan can't get the basket in the first place, and the opponent's center is scored?"

"Even because of his poor lateral speed, he sometimes gets in the way of Webb's basket breakout."

"I don't deny that Muresan is a good center, he just doesn't fit for our Bullets."

What Lin Yu said was reasonable, and Unselde and Paulin couldn't refute it at all this time.

"Lin, do you know why I chose Muresan back then? That's right, it's because of Mu Tiezhu. ”

"I've played against Iron Pillar and I know very well how much of his size is a defensive deterrent under the basket, and it turned out that I was right, and it only took a second-round pick to pick a center like Murraysan."

"I'll admit he's not perfect, but he's at least in the top five in the league in rim protection, and you've seen the tragedy of our four-game losing streak without him."

"In fact, there is no such thing as a perfect player in this world, and Muresan is already the best solution for us."

Unselde explained to Lin Yu quite patiently, if it weren't for the amazing effect of the siblings, with his irascible personality, he would have beaten Lin Yu out of the door with a broom.

As soon as his words fell, Lin Yu grinned.

"The fact that we do have a perfect center, at least for the Bullets, he's perfect."

"Who?" Pauline asked curiously.

"Ben! Ben Wallace! ”

The name that Lin Yu said in his mouth made Unselde smile bitterly.

Big Ben is a player he has personally selected, perfect or not, doesn't he know about Unseld?

Without the slightest offensive ability with the ball, the offense under the basket is almost negligible, the free throw ability is not as good as most high school players, the height is extremely short, and it is not the material of the center at all.

If O'Neill's center-forward talent is God chasing and feeding, then Big Ben's center-forward talent is God chasing and feeding dung.

"Son, times have changed."

"I signed him half a year ago, and I also had selfish intentions, and I saw in him the shadow of my youth."

"It's a pity that this is no longer the era of ancient barbarism, and the era that belongs to us short power type inside lines has completely come to an end."

Unselde's tone was full of frustration and sadness, and he sometimes envied the other interior stars of his generation, who at least had a nominal successor.

For example, the successor to the quadruple-double emperor Nate Thurmond is Olajuwon, the big dream at the beginning of his career.

And Unselde doesn't have any successor, he is like a widower who has no one to burn paper money after he dies of old age.

Lin Yu shook his head again and again, "No, my lord, the times have not changed!" ”

"Please give me a week, it only takes a week, and I can prove that there is still a stage for the short power inside!"

"I can prove that if Mr. Unseld can get back to the top, he'll still be a terrifying bone crusher under the basket!"

Unselde looked at Lin Yu in a daze, even if he felt that Lin Yu was purely crazy, his heart still couldn't help but warm.

"Smack!"

Pauline struggled to get up from his seat and applauded Lin Yu's words.

"Wonderful! It's wonderful! ”

"I kind of understand why Wes would look at you differently."

"Kid, you're really in the wrong business, and if you're a politician, maybe there's a seat for you in the Washington State Assembly."

"Muresan is injured and has at least a week to be out of action, and I really can't think of any reason to refuse you."

"We've got three home games for the next week, kid, and hopefully you'll surprise my old bones."

After saying this, old Pauline left tremblingly.

"Boss, does this mean that you agree?" Lin Yu's heart was shocked, even if this result was what he expected, it still made him excited.

I'm going to be the head coach of an NBA team!

"I really don't know if I should call you smart or stupid."

"Don't get too excited, have you ever wondered what you'll face if all three of your home games are lost?"

"Pauline is not a philanthropist, he definitely doesn't support idlers, and you may not even have to be a teaching assistant when the time comes."

Unselde's face was worried, he was very worried about Lin Yu's next situation.

Lin Yu was optimistic, "All three defeats? How can it be. ”

"With a three-star lineup like Webber, Howard and Strickland, it's impossible for a dog on the sidelines to lose all three games."

"Forget it, a kid like you just hasn't experienced a beating in reality."

"If it's as easy as you say, why are we on a four-game losing streak?"

"Now you can only pray that God will be with you, so that you can at least continue to be your teaching assistant."

"Come out with me, you're so shabby, I don't want to be at home and the fans think I've got a homeless man as the manager."

Lin Yu glanced at the suit on his body, it was wrinkled, and a few threads came out of the cuffs, and at first glance, it was a hypermarket discount that did not exceed a hundred dollars.

He did not refuse the kindness of the old bone crusher and followed him to the busiest shopping street in Washington.

Originally, the old bone crusher wanted to customize a decent suit for Lin Yu, but unfortunately there was a home game tomorrow night, and the time was not in a hurry, so he simply bought a set in a ready-to-wear store, worth $1,200.

"Yes, being young is good, this suit feels like you're wearing it for $10,000."

"Hmm, it seems like there's something missing?"

"Watch! That's right, how can a man give you another piece of Rolex without a watch! ”

The old bone crusher didn't care if Lin Yutong disagreed, pulled him into the luxury store, picked out a basic Rolex, and spent another 5,000 dollars.

More than $6,000 in the 90s, the purchasing power is amazing, enough to buy a good second-hand Cadillac.

Lin Yu looked at the old man in front of him, and was infinitely grateful in his heart, the grace of dripping water still needs to be repaid by the spring, the old bone crusher has helped him so much, and he has to repay him for everything he says in the future.

……

At nine o'clock in the morning of the next day, under the leadership of Unseld, Lin Yu came to the team's training ground.

Tonight has a home game against the Boston Celtics, and the Bullets have a routine training camp in the morning.

"Come here, meet your new boss."

Unseld shouted loudly and called the players to his side.

Lin Yu looked intently at the unfamiliar but familiar players, King Chris Webber, Nook Juwan Howard, Speed Strickland, General Harvey Grant, "Carl" Channey, "Leg" Tim Legler.

Giant George Muresan was of course the most eye-catching, and although he was injured, he still showed up at the training ground.

In the NBA, as long as there are players with nicknames, there is more or less something, such as General Grant, who is the younger brother of Cobra Grant, the Bulls' first dynasty big forward, and a few years ago he was also a quasi-All-Star who averaged 18 points and 7 rebounds per game.

Another example is the white shooter Leg Brother, who is a dispensable small role in the bullet, and the status of the team is similar to that of Big Ben.

But he won the All-Star Three-Point Contest and was named one of the top 10 all-time three-pointers in NBA history in 2011 with Big Bird Bird, Ray Allen, Steve Kerr, Reggie Miller and others!

Looking at it this way, it's not that the Wizards can't do three-pointers, it's just that they don't pay attention to three-pointers.

"Huh? What about Big Ben? ”

Lin Yu frowned, all his plans revolved around Daben, and now he didn't see Daben among the players, which suddenly made Lin Yu panic.
