Chapter 657 [Big Deal, Bad News]


When they arrived in Salt Lake City on the 3rd, the Hornaceks welcomed Wang Jun very well, and he and Abby stayed at home and did not go to the hotel.American families rarely care about their children's feelings and respect young people's choices.And Abby's mother is very realistic, after hearing that Wang Jungang sold stocks and was worth more than 200 million US dollars, she couldn't stop smiling, the Hornacek family has accumulated over several generations, and they don't have so much wealth.In the morning, everyone had breakfast together, and a shocking big deal was announced on the news, Pau Gasol left the Grizzlies to join the Lakers.The incident caused an uproar online and people were discussing it.After picking up an injury at the 2006 World Championships, Gasol's professional basketball career seemed to be on the decline.In addition to being swept in the playoffs year after year and being labeled as a "soft egg" by fans and the media, his status in the team as the "Bear King" is not as good as it was back then, and his name began to be frequently mentioned by various trade rumors, and the Grizzlies want to cultivate two newcomers, Conley and Guy.The Bulls are rumored to send Tyson Chandler to pack role players and draft picks to recruit Gasol.The Cavaliers, who came out halfway, also seem to be determined to win, and the chips are whatever they want except James.The Hornets' willingness to send Ben Wallace plus a draft pick in exchange for Gasolga's garbage contract appears to be sincere.The chips offered by the three companies were very good, but Gasol eventually joined the Lakers in an uproar, and the glasses all over the world fell to the ground.The Lakers' chips are only parallel goods champion Kwame Brown, retired veteran Aaron McGee, non-playing rookie Critanton, and the signing rights of the second-round fat man Marc Gasol who is still in Europe, and the two first-round picks in 2008 and 2010 were exchanged for Gasol and the second-round picks in 2010.With the exception of Brown, the Grizzlies simply didn't get anyone who could play.Looking at the Lakers' chips is not a trade at all.It's all robbery.Several team owners expressed displeasure, and others openly protested, arguing that the two teams had engaged in insider trading, which was impossible for the Grizzlies manager and owner to do.Popovich was the one who condemned it the most, saying he simply struggled to understand the Grizzlies' actions."

Their behavior in Memphis has gone beyond comprehension.The alliance should set up a trading committee.Catch the deals that don't make sense.I just wish I could be one of them, oversee those deals, and if I could, I would veto the deal in Los Angeles. ”This deal is extremely embarrassing for the Spurs, and the Lakers have become the Spurs' biggest competitors, and it can even be said that the Spurs' hopes are directly ruined.The deal is certainly not canceled.The media said the Grizzlies' plan is to save salary space and deal with Gasol's three-year, $49.4 million contract.It sounds like Gasol is a garbage contracted waste.In fact, he had 189 points, 88 rebounds and 3 assists.And according to the terms of the NBA trade, the chips offered by the Lakers cannot reach the minimum salary to complete the trade, and the Grizzlies' salary does not meet the salary cap.The team whose salary barely reaches the salary cap sends away the star owner in order to save salary space, why didn't the owner directly sell the team and sell steamed buns instead, that is cheap, and there is no salary cap.The funniest thing is that the key to the deal being closed in the end is McGee.Kupchak approached McGee, who was serving as an interim assistant coach with the 76ers, and signed him to a one-day contract worth $750,000.He was then traded to the Grizzlies.For this kind of "nothing can't be done, only unexpected" way of contracting.The league officials, led by President David Stern, didn't even let out a fart, and directly acquiesced without any precedent.After getting Gasol, the Lakers have begun to look forward to a happy life in the future.Chinese player Sun Yue also benefited and had the opportunity to wear the Lakers jersey.The Lakers sent away fringe guard Crittenton, leaving one player less on the guard line.Bulls fans commented on the trade, most of them were disgusted, and some were confident in the team."

It is absolutely feasible to suggest that the Bulls sign Garfield for $750,000 a day, and pack J Brown, Howard, Watson and two draft picks in exchange for Nowitzki to strengthen the team's No. 4 spot.The Mavericks can clear salary space in the summer, and earn more than the Grizzlies, and get an experienced veteran. ”"The league just wanted the Lakers to win the championship, and the Grizzlies didn't get anything but two draft picks.And the Lakers' first-round pick in the next two seasons must have been low.This is not insider trading, what is insider trading" "The league doesn't want the Bulls to win three consecutive championships, the Celtics and Lakers have begun to huddle, in addition to Duncan, Garnett, Nowitzki, the No. 4 position is Gasol's strongest.Odom can also shoot and respond, and the Lakers are definitely in the top three in the league inside. ”"It would be a shame for the Lakers to lose such a high salary if they can't win the championship in the end, no matter how they change, I think they won't be able to prevent Wang Jun from entering the finals, and they will be able to watch the soaring points then."

Abby used the computer to check the news and commentary, and Wang Jun went into the living room and sat down next to Jeff Hornacek to watch TV together."

That's very bad news, if you want to defend your title this year, you have to beat two tough opponents."

Hornacek smiled."

It's really bad news, but I don't think the Lakers will definitely make it to the Finals, and even if they do, they won't be afraid.Bynum is injured and has weaknesses in their perimeter defense.Regardless of Radmanovic or Wharton, Hill has an advantage against them.As long as I beat Kobe Bryant and suppress their strongest point, the Bulls can win. ”Wang Jun said confidently.Hornacek praised: "You have a really good mentality, you don't even complain, what do you think of the Celtics" "As long as your teammates come back in the playoffs, the Bulls have the advantage in terms of athleticism, we are better offensively, and the defense is definitely a slight victory for the Celtics, it depends on whether we can break their defense."

In any case, I am the most critical. ”Wang Jun replied.This is suspected of self-selling and boasting, if it was two seasons ago, Wang Jun would definitely not say such high-profile words.Now what he says is the truth, the regular season has been played so far, if it weren't for his personal ability, the Bulls may have fallen out of the playoffs long ago.The playoffs are different from the regular season in that star ability is more important than squad depth, with fewer rotation players and more heads-up.Stars tend to shoot more in the playoffs, and if they can't step up and lead the team to win, the rating will be lower.Gasol is a prime example of this, although he is very consistent, technically good, and efficient, he is considered a disqualified leader if he does not win in the playoffs.If he is a little more domineering, the Grizzlies will not want to rebuild and train new people.It is a good choice for him to be the second leader of a strong team.Hornacek was not disgusted by Wang Jun's self-confidence, and smiled: "I am optimistic about the Bulls, but I hope that the Bulls will fight the Jazz in the finals, not against the Lakers." ”As a retired star living in Salt Lake City, Hornacek has a soft spot for the Jazz.Wang Jun got to the point: "Jeff, my offensive skills are not perfect, I need your help to give me some guidance, can I delay you for some time" "You are much stronger than me, what can I help you" Hornacek raised an eyebrow."

I hope you can teach me the essentials of throwing, throwing can make me better break the bag, and after breaking through, it is still possible to be blocked for a layup and dunk."
