After the victory over the Knicks, the Wizards immediately marched towards Chicago.

When he saw the lineup of the Chicago Bulls, Lin Yu had an extremely complicated mood, and he truly realized the artistic conception of the word "things are people".

The arena is still the same arena, but the people are not those people.

The Bulls Trident, Jordan retired, Pippen went to the Trail Blazers to get a super big contract, and Rodman went to join the Lakers.

The head coach Zen Master didn't go anywhere, and he said that he would take a year off.

Even Kerr ran away to the Spurs.

Lin Yu looked at the Bulls' bench, and there were only two old acquaintances left, Kukochi and Harper, who turned out to be the boss of the Bulls.

"Hey, Lin, nice to meet you." A middle-aged white man walked towards Lin Yu excitedly.

Lin Yu looked at the visitor curiously, and blurted out, "Are you?" ”

He really doesn't know who this person in front of him is, and thinks that he might be the coach of the Bulls? I just don't know if it's the head coach or the assistant coach.

The person frowned, he didn't expect Lin Yu to know himself at all, and he was also a top coach in the NCAA.

"Tim Floyd."

Freud thought that he still had something to ask Lin Yu, so he hid the displeasure in his heart, and reported himself to the house with a gentle smile.

Lin Yule was happy, as soon as he heard the surname Floyd, he would think of the black man who was kneeling and killed, and the Floyd in front of him was a white man......

Of course, he had heard the name Tim Floyd, and under normal circumstances, it was the Zen master he took over who became the head coach of the Bulls and remained there for many years.

This person is a super gambler, a gambler in the literal sense of the word, who often goes in and out of casinos, and has even been photographed fighting people in casinos.

In the NCAA, because of a series of problems such as bribery, he couldn't do it anymore, and he may have something to do with Bulls general manager Klaus, so he successfully took the position of coach.

How can there be children crying every day, how can there be gamblers who lose every day, Freud gambled this time.

"Hello, I'm glad to meet you, Mr. Floyd." The other party reported to his family, and his attitude was not bad, of course Lin Yu couldn't help but give face, and he also smiled and said hello.

"Lin, there's something I want to talk to you about."

"Clarence and I have been friends for many years, and we are alumni of the University of Southern Mississippi."

Freud continued.

Lin Yu didn't react for a while, Clarence? South Mississippi? What the hell is this guy talking about?

The next second he reacted, Clarence Witherspoon!

Seeing Lin Yu's puzzled expression, Floyd spoke again: "Lin, for my sake, can you give Clarence a chance and don't execute his team option." ”

"Everyone is a person in this circle, no one can never be free of difficulties, if you have difficulties in the future, I will definitely be able to help you."

Lin Yu was stunned, he was stunned by Freud's self-confidence.

Giving you a face? If the Zen master said this, Lin Yuxing might be able to think about it a little, but what kind of thing are you Freud, and Lao Tzu is here to play as a big brother?

"Tim, you're right, no one can guarantee that they will always be smooth sailing."

"But I can't even handle the difficulty, can you handle it? Do you have any misunderstandings about your own strength? ”

"See your face? What kind of face do you have, just with your NCAA credentials? Is Larry Brown bigger than you? How dare he let me see his face? Lin Yu chuckled and said to Floyd.

Larry Brown has a national championship championship in the NCAA, which is much better than Floyd's, but Lin Yu should still draw him.

Seeing that Floyd's face turned red and he was about to open his mouth again, Lin Yu hurriedly waved his hand.

"If you want to save face, I can sign Clarence back, but you can pay Clarence's salary, $2.7 million."

"What? Don't want to give? ”

"Oh, I want to be a good person, and I want to be a dime a dime, you go to the casino empty-handed, and people let you go to the table?"

Lin Yu waved Floyd away like a fly, this kind of little deflated San dared to find a sense of existence in front of him, it was completely ugly.

Witherspoon almost abolished Maddie at the beginning, but after it was in Lin Yu's hands, he had to not surrender, and dared to force Lin Yu with special means, so how could Lin Yu let him have a good end.

Freud thought he was the number one person, but in Lin Yu's eyes, he was not even as good as little Van Gundy.

If he really has some status, why didn't he sign with Witherspoon with the Bulls, not because he didn't have a voice.

"University of Southern Mississippi? How can this school be full of such poor worms? Lin Yu frowned and thought.

His deepest memory of this university is not Witherspoon or Floyd, and Lin Yu didn't even know that these two were from this university, but a player named Wendell Randle.

Randle entered the league in the '70-71 season and then played for 11 teams in five years, the most transfers in NBA history in five years.

After five years of transfer, he died in a plane crash while flying at the age of 26, which is quite tragic.

"Brother Lin, I'm here."

Ma Jian trotted to Lin Yu's side.

After he was signed by the Bulls last season, he was then dropped, and when he got to the playoffs later, he didn't have a chance to play, and Lin Yu hadn't seen him for a long time.

"Well, I just scolded your head coach, you'd better stay away from me, lest he hate you."

"Okay."

Ma Jian braked urgently, then turned around and ran, and a layer of cold sweat appeared on his back.

He began to scold his mother in his heart, should he be so unlucky? If you stay with the Wizards last season, even if you don't play a game, you can mix up the championship.

Especially when Lin Yu became the boss of the wizards, he was still worried that he couldn't get the guarantee contract?

Now that he has come to the Bulls, the new coach is unavailable, and he has been put on the squad, and he is preparing to make a big fight tonight, but Lin Yu scolded head coach Floyd, and Ma Jian is worried that he will suffer from the disaster of the pond fish.

"Doot toot!"

The referee blew the whistle for the start of the game, and the starters of both sides began to play.

The starting lineup sent by Lin Yu tonight is Xiao Ao, Da Zhi, Peja, Maddy and Kobe, Nash was tired and half dead in the last game, and took the initiative to ask for a rotation tonight.

In fact, Nash has completely played his value, and there is no All-Star Game this year anyway, so it doesn't matter if he plays or not.

"Smack!"

As soon as he started, Xiao Ao contributed a shocking hat, and he played in the No. 5 position tonight.

Xiao Ao is not as strong as playing the No. 4 position as a center, but that is also a score compared to whom, the Bulls are now even Luke Longley, the center of the team is Dick Simpkins, the previous average of two or three points per game, it is strange not to be abused by Xiao Ao.

Dazhi made his career debut in the last game, played very well, scored 17 points, and started tonight, facing Mark Bryant's low-pitch cannon No. 4 position, which was even more lethal, and combined with Xiao Ao, the two inside and out, killing the Bulls without the power to resist.

Peja was extra energetic every time he played against Kukoc, scoring three three-pointers in the first quarter alone.

Maddie and Kobe Bryant in the backcourt, all kinds of emergency stops and backs, how handsome the posture is.

Almost in halftime, the Bulls were crushed, and the Wizards beat the Bulls by 29 points at halftime with a score of 71:42.

Ma Jian sat aggrievedly on the bench, he watched Dazhi exert his power on the field, and felt very uncomfortable.

He felt that it was because he said hello to Lin Yu before the opening, and then he was hated by the head coach, so he didn't make his debut.

However, Freud really didn't notice that he greeted Lin Yu, and the reason why Ma Jian was not allowed to play was because he was useless on the field......

With his two-meter height, how can he prevent Dazhi from turning over and retreating?

Even if he goes to play the number three position, he will be able to guard against Peja? That's also impossible, Peja can shoot him into a sieve.

After half a quarter in the third quarter, the score difference continued to be widened, and Dazhi hit one after another, and the score difference had reached 40 points.

Dazhi really has a bit of a feeling of flying in the No. 4 position, the abuse is really ruthless, and his frighteningly high shooting point is impossible for the ordinary No. 4 position to interfere with his shooting.

In today's league, there may only be Garnett and Xiao Ao, the two No. 4 positions with both height and athleticism, who can pose a substantial threat to Dazhi's offense, but Webber can't, and his height is also short.

Floyd's face turned green, he already realized that Lin Yu was going to kill everything, and there was definitely no garbage time in tonight's game.

This is the first game of the season for the Bulls, and they are naturally ineligible to play the season opener without the Trident.

At the same time, it is also the debut of Floyd's NBA coaching career, if this gives Lin Yu a score difference of sixty or seventy points, his old face really has no place to put it.

Ma Jian has a strong eye, and he knows what he thinks when he looks at Floyd's expression.

This is a good opportunity to make meritorious contributions, and Ma Jian will definitely miss it.

"Coach, if we continue to fight according to this situation, we will lose very badly." Ma Jian leaned over to Floyd and said.

Floyd glared at Ma Jian, "You say?" I don't have eyes? ”

Ma Jian slandered: "It's true that you don't have long eyes, you really have long eyes, can you run to offend Lin Yu?" That's what you can provoke? ”

"Don't worry, coach, I have a way, although it is definitely impossible to win, but at least I won't lose so badly." Ma Jian hurriedly said.

Floyd was immediately interested, and no fan in the world would expect their Bulls to win against the Wizards, as long as they didn't lose too ugly.

"What can you do?" Floyd frowned and said, he knew that he had offended Lin Yu, so Lin Yu was willing to show mercy to his subordinates?

"Give me a minute."

Ma Jian said, hurriedly bent over and trotted over the technical table, and came to the Wizards bench.

"MJ, here comes our Chicago MJ." Kobe Bryant said with a laugh.

After Jordan left, Ma Jian was the only MJ in Chicago.

Ma Jian waved his hand, "Go, go, it's you guy talking nonsense, after I arrived at the Bulls, Jordan never gave me a good look." ”

After talking to Kobe, he said to Lin Yu in Mandarin.

"Brother, can you start this game lightly, my coach is a bit of a flurry and doesn't understand people, so don't be like him."

"You don't remember the villain, just let him go, you look at his face, it's worse than eating a ton of dead flies."

"Just give me a face, little brother, okay?"

Ma Jian half-squatted in front of Lin Yu and began to intercede for the bull.

Lin Yu laughed, look at Ma Jian's art of speaking, it is also to give face, and he has to give this face.

"Okay, you have to give this face."

After that, Lin Yu asked for a timeout at the technical table and began to make substitutions.

Ma Jian ran back to Floyd in high spirits, "Coach, it's done, I have been friends with Lin Yu for more than ten years, he is a smooth donkey, he eats soft and not hard." ”

"What? Have you been friends with him for more than ten years? ”

"Huh? Then why don't you play with the Wizards? Floyd looked shocked.

Ma Jian blushed, thinking that it was no wonder that this product would be scolded by Lin Yu, it was really a pot that could not be opened.

Floyd didn't bother with why the Wizards had a full thirty players, but he didn't ask for Ma Jian, he only knew that Ma Jian did make a meritorious service, and after the Wizards called a timeout, they began to make substitutions and replaced them with a group of lineups that didn't look so strong.

Brad Miller, Harrington, Pierce, Carter plus Billups.

Taking advantage of this timeout, Ma Jian was also substituted, and he played the No. 4 position, which will directly face Harrington.

Ma Jian was very excited, he felt that he was a veteran, beat you a new melon egg Harrington, that's not a pinch?

However, after the game started, Ma Jian almost turned his back on his breath, couldn't play, couldn't play at all, and Harrington didn't fight against him physically, just looked for Miller's block, and then shot.

The key is also hell accurate, in just a few minutes, he gave this guy 5 out of 7 and scored 10 points.

Under Ma Jian's background, Harrington is as powerful as Webb.

The situation on the court is not much better for the Bulls, at most, this lineup is not very good defensively, allowing them to score more points, and the offensive end of the Wizards, they still can't parry.

Lin Yu was speechless, the bull's hellish combat power is too weak, right? You must know that the people he sent on the court, except for Billups, are all new melons and eggs, and the Bulls can't handle this?

After the game, the Wizards defeated the Bulls by 53 points with a score of 136:83, Lin Yu wanted to give Ma Jian a chance to improve his status in the Bulls, but the Bulls were too weak, even if Lin Yu released the water here, the final score difference was over 50 points.

……

Originally, this game was over, and Lin Yu was ready to lead the team to the next away Toronto Raptors.

The next morning, however, he received a call from Stern.

"Lin, I'm afraid there's something I need your help with."

Stern's embarrassed voice came over the phone.

"What's the rush? I didn't say anything about it in New York two days ago, and now I'm leading the team to play away, so I probably don't have time. Lin Yu asked curiously.

Stern looked embarrassed, "I don't need you to spend any time, I was thinking if you can sell a reliable player to the Bulls?" ”

"This bull is outrageous, I'm sure you've felt it."

"Chicago is the third largest city in the United States and one of the largest ball markets in the NBA, and if they do this, they are committing a crime, and wasting resources is a crime."

Lin Yu nodded, the Bulls are indeed outrageous, he has already discovered in last night's game, especially those two insiders, who are simply against the sky, resting on most teams, and the Bulls' two starting insiders can't even play as substitutes.

"It's not impossible, buy and sell, as long as the price is right, I can sell it, anyway, we have enough Wizards players."

"Who does the bull want?"

Lin Yu chose so many players before, wasn't it just for trading? Since the bull wants, as long as the price given can satisfy Lin Yu, he doesn't mind selling to the bull, and selling it to anyone is not selling.

"How's Kobe?" Stern on the other end of the line asked weakly.

Lin Yu almost vomited blood, "Kobe? Why don't you sell me to the bulls? ”

"Are you thinking that Jordan is retiring and Kobe Bryant is joining the Bulls as Jordan's successor?"

Stern laughed and said, "That's true, but it sounds like you don't want to, so how about selling Nash and the bus to the bulls?" ”

The corners of Lin Yu's mouth twitched, do you really dare to think about it, Nash and the bus are the framework of this wizard, they are the container, with this frame and container, and then they can be loaded with Kobe, Maddie, Peja and others.

"Old man, you better be realistic, I'm doing a deal, not charity."

"I know you don't want to waste Chicago's ball market, you want them to have some strong players and attract fans to the stadium, but even if I can sell these players, what will the Bulls buy for them?"

"You pack up their boss and send it to Washington, and you can't get one of these players back."

"You'd better let Klaus contact me, and I'll talk to him directly." Lin Yu said with a sigh.

It seems that Stern's request is a bit outrageous, but if Lin Yu thinks about it from another perspective, he can also understand Stern, such a big piece of cake in Chicago, and now that the disaster is like this, he, the helmsman of the alliance, must be distressed.

Lin Yu is sometimes barbaric and brutal, but he has one good thing, that is, he knows how to empathize.

Empathy is a good thing, a lot of indignant things, once empathy, immediately the mood is clear.

For example, the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, if you think about it from the perspective of the queen mother, it is her favorite little daughter, who went down to play for two days, and then was abducted to a poor country and gave birth to two children......

The queen mother didn't kill the cowherd alive, which is already considered the queen mother's kindness.

……

Lin Yu waited for less than ten minutes, and the phone rang again, so he didn't have to think that it must be Klaus.

"Lin, do you believe in fate?"

Klaus's opening remarks seemed to be confessing to Lin Yu.

"Let me guess, Mr. Klaus, do you mean to say that you are very close to me? Because both of us started our careers as scouts, and both were scouts for the Bullets? ”

Lin Yu said with a smile.

Klaus's first job in the industry was as a scout for the Baltimore Bullets, the predecessor of the Washington Bullets, and he has a lot of similarities with Lin Yu.

As a scout, when Kraus was on the Bullets, he strongly recommended that the team select Zen master Phil Jackson in the draft, although the team did not take his advice, but he also established a friendship with the Zen master, which led to the later Bulls dynasty.

As a native of Youtai, Klaus was extremely cunning, and he first made friends with Lin Yutao, and did not mention the transaction.

"Mr. Klaus, I think we'd better get down to business, I'm going to catch a plane in two hours."

Lin Yu urged.

"Well, I just like to deal with straightforward people."

"Lin, I want Tracy, can you sell it to us?"

"No talk!" If it wasn't for Stern's introduction, Lin Yu couldn't wait to hang up the phone directly, if Kobe Bryant didn't sell it, Maddie would be able to sell it?

"Don't fantasize about the top combat power in my hands, we still want to hit the championship this year, how can we sell it to you."

"Now I'll give you two options, one is Al Harrington, who played last night, he's a mature player, give him plenty of playing time, and immediately become a top two-way forward who averages about 20 points and 7 rebounds per game."

"Another option is Ricky Davis, who hasn't played on my team yet, a swingman who averages about 20 points per game at his peak, but he will definitely not be in his peak in a year, and if you give him enough playing time this year, he will probably be able to score about 15 points."

"Don't doubt the evaluation I gave them, after selling it to you, if you think I deceived you, you can always ask me to return it, and you can even record what I said as a voucher for future returns."

Lin Yu said confidently.

The players he has selected are all carefully selected, and he is certainly confident in their strength.

Klaus was dumbfounded, he had lived half his life, and it was the first time he had heard of someone trading like this, and if he was not satisfied, he could return it?

Then there will be no worries about this deal.

"We all want it!" Klaus hurriedly said that both of them wanted, since they could return the goods, of course they would all take it down, these were two rookies, if they could reach the kind of strength that Lin Yu said, they would definitely not lose money if they traded it.

"No, you can only buy one, you can't afford two." Lin Yu shook his head and said.

Klaus choked half to death, which was too underestimated, but unfortunately he couldn't refute it, and the bulls didn't seem to have much leverage to trade at the moment.

"Then we want Harrington, what price?"

"Your first-round pick next year, plus $6 million in cash compensation, you don't have to talk about any less."

Lin Yu decisively gave an offer.

"Huh? $6,000,000 in cash? A single transaction can only be worth up to $3 million? Lin, you don't know this, do you? Klaus wondered.

"Of course I know, wouldn't it be nice to split it into two deals? Sell you a fringe player and give me three million dollars. ”

"Then Harrington traded for a first-round pick and added $3 million."

Klaus was stunned, the whole league was wondering why Lin Yu signed so many marginal players, but now Klaus seems to understand.

In fact, he doesn't understand that Lin Yu signed these marginal players not just to take them out and make transactions.

Lin Yu's operation, there are no violations, no one can pick out the thorns, Klaus thought for three seconds, and directly agreed, anyway, if you can return it, what are you afraid of.
