The draft is over, but the real highlight has just begun.

Thomas Sr. walked briskly towards Nelson Sr. at the end of the draft.

He didn't have much interest in Jamison because in the previous rookie tryout, Jamison didn't make a good impression on Thomas Sr.

Jamison said that he was a two-way forward, but his height of 203 cm seemed to Thomas Sr. to be a non-trivial player, playing the No. 3 position lacked athleticism and could not break through, and the No. 4 position was too short to guard against a serious power forward.

"Old man, are you interested in making a deal? You swapped players with the Bucks. Thomas Sr. said to Nelson Sr.

Old Nelson smiled and did not speak, and motioned for Thomas Sr. to continue.

"How about we trade Jamison for your Pierce? All you need to do is add some cash. ”

Lin Yu was not far away, old Thomas's words were heard clearly, and he couldn't help sighing in his heart, old Thomas's vision was indeed vicious enough, if this deal was done for him, it would really be profitable.

But old Nelson smiled and said, "Isaiah, you wait a minute. ”

After that, he actually walked towards Lin Yu, smiled and opened his mouth: "Lin, are you interested in making a deal?" ”

"You chose that German boy, right? How about I trade with you with Pierce? ”

"You can choose to pay in cash or get a first-round pick swap for next season."

Old Nelson still has a lot of thoughts about Nowitzki and wants to trade Pierce in his hand, if Lin Yu doesn't agree, he will consider taking out Pierce to trade with the Raptors.

He's also quite optimistic about Jamison.

Lin Yu pondered, Nowitzki for Pierce? can also get the first-round pick swap right, this deal doesn't seem to be impossible.

After this draft, there are too many big forward players in Lin Yu's hands, Xiao Ao, Dazhi, Harrington and Lewis, and even the bus can play big forwards, and the number is so large that it explodes.

And the number of small forwards in his hands is not much, there are only Peja and Maddy, and if he wins Pierce, he is also a swingman at the forward and can play the second or third position.

In that way, there are five players in the second and third positions in Lin Yu's hands, Kobe, Maddy, Pierce, Carter and Peja, even if they suffer injuries or bans, it will not make Lin Yu have no high-end combat power available.

In addition, the first-round pick swap right is also very valuable, the Wizards will definitely be the 29th pick in the first round next season, and the Mavericks still can't enter the playoffs, Lin Yu can use the swap right to exchange the 29th pick in his hand for the Mavericks' lotto pick.

The 1999 draft is also a big year for the draft, producing a lot of stars, this lottery can at least get a muscular hunk Corey Margetty for Lin Yu, Margetty at the peak, that is the same as Kobe Bryant's Los Angeles double department, Los Angeles Lakers Kobe, Los Angeles Clippers Corey.

If he is lucky, the calf's order is a little higher, and Lin Yu even has a chance to get the hacker Marion, Lama Odom or the perpetual motion Hamilton and others.

"Mr. Nelson, are you so optimistic about that German boy?" Lin Yu asked curiously.

If it weren't for the identity of the time-traveler, Lin Yu would not have chosen Nowitzki, because there is not the slightest possibility of becoming a superstar in Nowitzki.

There's no athleticism, no height advantage, no defensive looks, and good shooting ability, but there are a lot of white big men in the league who shoot well, and Nowitzki doesn't look special.

"Originally, I wasn't sure of his potential, but since you chose him, then I'm sure of it."

Old Nelson smiled gently, and praised Lin Yu fruitfully.

Lin Yu is also a master who eats soft rather than hard, and when he heard what old Nelson said, he simply made up his mind to trade.

Anyway, Lin Yu didn't lose money at all in this deal, and he still made a profit.

"Mr. Nelson's vision is as good as ever, and I still want the first-round pick swap."

"The deal can be officially announced tomorrow."

Lin Yu happily agreed, and the old Thomas not far away was so angry that he trembled, he felt that Lin Yu was disgusting himself!

Obviously Carter, the swingman of the guard, has already been selected, why do you want to take another Pierce, the swingman of the guard?!

If old Thomas questioned Lin Yu, Lin Yu would definitely answer him like this, Carter is SG/SF, Pierce is SF/SG, although they are both swing guards, but the direction of swing is different, Carter is swinging towards the quarterback, and Pierce is swinging towards the small forward, so can it be the same?

"Lin, can you reveal what kind of chips are needed to get the Nash Extra Bus from you?"

"Of course, I'm just asking, Mavericks definitely can't get that kind of sky-high chips."

Old Nelson asked with another smile.

Lin Yu was stunned, good guy, other teams are trading to buy a weapon, either to buy a tank or a rifle, old Nelson is good, he wants to buy a synthetic brigade when he comes up!

If Nash and the bus are packaged and sold, it is no exaggeration to say that only the Spurs and Lakers have hope to win in the current league, the Spurs must at least take out Duncan, and the Lakers must at least take out Ofat.

"At least it has to be Duncan or O'Neal, and you have to add other chips, but the friendship price is not impossible to talk about." Lin Yu said with a smile.

When he said this to Nelson, there were many representatives of other teams around him, and when he heard that Lin Yu had really made an offer to trade Nash Bus, he couldn't help but feel itchy.

If you win these two, it will not be a question of whether you will enter the playoffs or not, and you will immediately become a strong team, with two top players, and you may even have the hope of hitting the championship.

Not to mention those weak chicken teams, even the Zen master is very excited, if you can get Nash and the bus, with the Bull Trident, the Zen master can't even think of how the Bull can lose the game, as long as the players are healthy, 82 wins in a single season are not impossible to play, and even guarantee that the playoffs will win the championship!

It's a pity that the Zen master also knows that they don't have any chips to trade, and even if they have chips, the wizards can't sell them bulls, isn't that an act of rivalry?

After Lin Yu left, the old Thomas finally found an opportunity to trade, and he was really determined to sell Jamison.

Eventually, he made a trade with the Bucks, trading Jamison for Traylor and $300,000 in cash.

Traylor is also 203 cm tall, and his athleticism is much stronger than Jamison's, and old guys like Thomas Sr. who came out of the retro era are still very superstitious about the physical fitness of players.

If Lin Yu was on the scene, he knew that the old Thomas made such a ridiculous deal, he would have to vomit blood, the Raptors didn't lose much, Jamison was a big man who averaged 25 points and 9 rebounds per game in his peak season, so he had to send him out like sending the plague god in exchange for a real plague god Trayler......

Traylor, nicknamed "Tractor", died alone in his Puerto Rican apartment in his thirties due to a heart attack, and was found after several days.

……

The next morning, the teams held a trade conference in Vancouver, and Lin Yu became the absolute protagonist again.

Originally, the outside world thought that Lin Yu only selected Vince Carter, Mobley and Brad Miller this year, after all, the Wizards only had these three draft picks on the surface.

However, after the end of the trade conference, everyone was shocked, what is Lin Yu going to do? Took 9 players in the '98 draft at once?! There are seven first-round shows among them?!

You must know that there are only 29 first-round shows, and Lin Yu's family accounts for a quarter?!

Everyone has actually resisted Lin Yu's various magical moves, but this time it is still too outrageous, one person chose a quarter of the first-round show, this year's newcomers are really that good? Can Lin Yu cast such a big net?

Although the salary of the rookie is not included in the salary space, the salary is still paid, especially the first-round pick has to be given at least a three-year guaranteed contract, even if it is the 29th pick, it will cost more than $2 million for three years, and a No. 5 pick like Carter, he got almost $7 million in the first three years.

Lin Yu's payment of these seven first-round picks is not a small amount.

Of course Wizards fans are happy, Lin Yu's draft vision was good enough, but now he is casting a wide net, so many newcomers, how can there be two or three who can take off, right?

How did they know that these nine players were carefully selected by Lin Yu, and each of them could take off.

After these nine people arrived, Lin Yu began to think about the lineup for the new season.

There are not many people in the center position, with two people, Daba and Brad Miller, but Xiao Ao can also play as a cameo center, but he is not as strong as a power forward.

The No. 4 position is a bit overcrowded, Xiao Ao, Dazhi, Harrington, Lewis, and Witherspoon who was traded by Lin Yu to break into the cold palace.

The No. 3 and No. 2 positions are inseparable, and Lin Yu has Kobe, Maddy, Carter, Pierce, Peja, Bowen, Harplin, Ricky Davis, Mobley, and a madman who hasn't been traded out for the time being.

There are not many people in the No. 1 position, only Nash and Billups, but Lin Yu has special props and goggles in his hands, and Kobe Bryant and the old cat Mobley can be in the No. 1 position.

There's also an old Irving, but he's definitely not going to be able to play in the new season.

Not counting Witherspoon, Madman and Old Irving, there are a total of 17 players, and Lin Yu was horrified to find that he was able to assemble three sets of top teams.

Big Bus, Little Ao, Maddie, Kobe and Nash, is it enough?

Miller, Dazhi, Pierce, Carter plus Billups, is it enough? You must know that after Dazhi uses special props, he has a top-level mid-range shooting ability, and Brad Miller has a top-level organizational ability, he can pass the ball to Dazhi as soon as possible, and the cooperation of these two inside lines makes Lin Yu look forward to it.

Xiao Ao, Lewis, Harrington, Peja plus Mobley, who is bound to props, even if it is not as good as the top two sets of the previous lineup, it is definitely a strong team, and the offensive firepower of this lineup is extremely strong.

Even Lin Yu can form a variety of very distinctive teams, such as the defensive gate, Big Bus, Xiao Ao, Harplin, Bowen and Kobe.

For example, the three-point shooting team, Dabus, Lewis, Peja, Kobe, Nash.

For example, organizing the passing team, Miller, Dazhi, Maddy, Kobe, and Nash.

For example, the explosive breakthrough dunk team, Big Bus, Pierce, Maddie, Carter, Kobe.

Lin Yu thought that he was happy, the new season of the Wizards is estimated to be very, very lively, such a lineup, Lin Yu can play any tactical system he can think of.

However, Lin Yu's joy did not last long, and he soon discovered an extremely fatal problem, that is, how to allocate the playing time.

These seventeen players should have a wonderful future, but now in their own hands, not to mention making their future even more wonderful, at least it can't be worse than normal, right?

If it is really not as good as under normal circumstances, then Lin Yu will be tantamount to doing evil, harming people's future, like killing his parents.

Lin Yu has a headache, this thing is too difficult, he can only put five players on the field, but he needs to arrange 17 players to play, and it is a headache to think about it.

……

After the draft, the labor negotiations really kicked off, and the two sides were arguing, one wanted to make more money, and the other wanted to save money.

Lin Yu's identity is the employer, but he does not fully represent the employer, and he also agrees with some of the demands of the labor, such as raising the basic salary, which is a good idea.

The base salary of 150,000 is too low, and after deducting taxes, it is not enough for NBA players to live a prosperous life.

raised to a base salary of about 300,000, that's about the same.

While the labor and management were fighting, Lin Yu had left Lao Mei and returned to China to prepare for the next 98 Greek Men's Basketball World Championships.

In fact, under normal circumstances, the Chinese men's basketball team did not qualify for this World Championships, because in the men's Asian Basketball Championships in 97, the Chinese men's basketball team lost to the South Korean base, only won the bronze medal, and missed the qualification for the World Championships.

However, after Lin Yu crossed over, he invisibly changed this history.

In 97, the bus was selected by Lin Yu to participate in the draft, and the first thing Lin Yu did at that time was to let the bus return to the national team.

Of course, the bus obeyed Lin Yu's instructions, and he had no reason to refuse, before coming to the Wizards to report, he followed the national team to play in the Asian Championships and helped the national team win the championship.

In the previous ten men's Asian Basketball Championships, the Chinese men's basketball team won nine championships, so winning the 97th Asian Championships did not cause much waves, which is a normal thing in everyone's eyes.

After arriving in Beijing, Lin Yu met a group of men's basketball players.

"Coach, he is Dazhi, I heard that I could see you today, he was so excited that he didn't fall asleep all night."

The bus dragged the thin Dazhi up to greet Lin Yu.

Dazhi looks a lot taller than the bus, but the tonnage is definitely 15 kilograms, and the two of them stand together, they are really thin and fat.

"Dazhi, are you ready?" Lin Yu looked up at Dazhi and said with a smile, no way, Dazhi is too tall.

It's a shame to say that Lin Yu got so many players, but there wasn't a single seven-foot player.

"Ready, Coach."

"Thank you, I heard Mr. Zhang Weiping say that you have put a lot of effort into my affairs, and I will definitely not let you down."

Dazhi was grateful, and everyone was envious since he became famous in the NBA and received an annual salary of $4 million.

That's an annual salary of four million US dollars, converted into Celestial Coins, it must be more than 30 million, and this is only a year!

What's even more tempting is that this is definitely not the highest annual salary that the bus can get, and when the bus can re-sign the contract, he can get at least tens of millions of dollars in annual salary.

Thinking of this number, many national team players have difficulty breathing.

"Okay, but if you want to play under me, you have to finish this World Championship."

"Fight hard, I'm very optimistic about you, your future achievements will not be lower than the bus."

These words made Dazhi even more excited, and his achievements were no less than those of the bus? Doesn't it mean that he will have the opportunity to get an annual salary of tens of millions in the future?

"Ding, Wang Zhizhi's favorability has improved, and the current favorability is 70 points."

"Create a super nuclear weapon of the FIBA competition system, so that Wang Zhizhi can win the scoring championship of the World Championships."

Lin Yule was happy, he didn't expect this kind of good thing before he came, Dazhi hadn't signed a contract with the Wizards yet, so he wasn't a player of the Wizards.

However, Lin Yu is the coach of the national team, Dazhi is a player of the national team, and he is also a player under Lin Yu, so he can naturally turn on the favorability, and even directly trigger the favorability task.

If there is no special props blessing, it is difficult for Dazhi to win the scoring championship of this World Championships, but now with the blessing of props, Dazhi's offensive firepower is extremely strong, as long as it is operated properly, it is not too difficult.

Lin Yu couldn't help but look at the other national team players, they are all Lin Yu's players, doesn't it mean that they can all brush up on the charm value?

Originally, due to labor negotiations, Lin Yu couldn't sign contracts with the rookies, and it was not easy to brush the charm value in the short term, which made him worried, but now that he has found a way to brush the charm value.

Before coming this time, Lin Yu specially asked Xia Yunshi to prepare twenty basic Rolexes, which cost a few thousand dollars.

When he passed through the customs, he also reported taxes, but these were all small amounts of money for Lin Yu.

At this time, Lin Yu was already surrounded by national players, and they all looked at Lin Yu with burning eyes, hoping that Lin Yu could look at himself a few more times, and maybe he could also win Lin Yu's favor, and then enter the NBA like Dazhi on the bus.

Lin Yu smiled and said to everyone: "Brothers, today is the first time to meet, and there are no good things to give to everyone as a meeting gift, and I brought some sustenance, which is a little bit of my heart." ”

Everyone's eyes showed a curious look, the old and beautiful souvenirs, I don't know what it will taste?

When Lin Yu took out more than a dozen Rolex from his backpack, everyone was dumbfounded.

"Rolex? Obediently, I heard that this piece costs at least more than 100,000 yuan, and my annual salary is not enough to buy one. ”

"The bus showed off his Rolex to me yesterday, saying that it was a special customized model, which could be worth seven or eight hundred thousand, and he could buy a small courtyard house in the third ring road!"

"This is a souvenir? You tell it's a souvenir? ”

Everyone was dumbfounded, they knew about Rolex, but they couldn't afford it, and this thing was a luxury item in China right now.

Just like Santana, who will still drive Santana in the future, but now Santana is the magic car that ordinary people dream of owning.

After the bus won the championship, he got a piece of Rolex, and after returning home, he often took it out to show off, which made everyone's eyes hot.

"Seven or eight hundred thousand? USD! ”

"I'm not an ordinary Rolex, it's a championship special custom, and when I retire, this is a relic!" The bus said with a smirk.

Lin Yu said with a smile: "These souvenirs are nothing special, they may only be about 100,000 yuan in our country, which is not so valuable." ”

"Come on, come on, one piece per person, those who see it have a share, don't take it and don't give face." Lin Yu shouted, really like a fellow villager distributing local products.

"Ding, Hu Weidong's favorability has improved, and the current favorability is 100 points."

"Ding, Liu Yudong's favorability has increased, and the current favorability is 100 points."

"Ding, Li Nan's favorability has increased, and the current favorability is 100 points."

……

Lin Yu was instantly overwhelmed by a huge sense of happiness, he never expected that leading the men's national basketball team would have such a splashing wealth!
