Chris Webber, such an All-Star power forward, fell steadily into the hands of the Celtics, and the day after that, Houston also announced the completion of the deal. Their newly acquired rookie Novak was traded to Boston, and from the opponent he could play as a small forward, Ryan Gomez.

Mainly because Comrade McGrady was injured continuously, and Van Gundy also needed a guy with good physical fitness to play as a substitute. Ryan Gomez's ability is average, but his physical condition is very good.

Van Gundy needs such a guy with good physique and can defend his life. It doesn’t matter if he is not talented, as long as he is willing to fight for his life. Nowak’s weak defense really makes Van Gundy disgusted.

Especially since that guy just came out of college, many academic problems have not been corrected. Van Gundy's tactical system requires not a pitcher, but a guy who can fight with his opponents at any time.

Besides, Novak is just a second-round rookie, and he is not an indispensable figure in Houston. If Van Gundy is unhappy about him, it would probably be useless to even Morey come forward and say anything.

However, Anji's deal is indeed tricky. No one would have thought that he could pick out such a number from the Rockets' delegated list, and that few white shooter even knew him.

But many people have overlooked one thing. Now there is an old guy named Tacanian in the Celtics who has been with NCAA for many years. He is a typical NCAA old man with an extremely sensitive sense of smell.

Anyway, whether it is this year, in recent years, or even a group of high school students who are preparing to enter university, this old guy has a lot of archive records, which is also a database for university coaches to recruit talents.

How could Tarcanian, who is always thinking about restoring the glory of the rebels, relax his observation of college players? Moreover, Novak was a show-off in the college league at the time.

In fact, not many people are paying attention to this news, because after the deal with Iverson was reached, the Bulls also bluntly offered the Grizzlies a price to buy their power forward Paul Gasol.

The Grizzlies gritted their teeth and ignored the Chicagoans' hookups, but Gasol was always in the first round of the playoffs in the Grizzlies, and he had really stayed enough in this remote and rural area.

The team's performance is not good and the city has no attention, which makes Gasol already plan to escape from the sea of ​​suffering.

The Bulls' offensive is also fierce enough. After finalizing the contracts of Hinrich and the others, the Chicagoans began to place the target of signings on the inside, and the most important thing is to have a certain offensive ability.

This is probably because Skeles learned from his mistakes after losing to the Celtics. Wallace and PJ Brown's offensive ability is painful. If the inside is not restrained, the outside may be locked.

After learning that lesson, Skeles now really wants to add firepower to the Bulls' inside.

But the Grizzlies definitely refused. The team was like a treasure-like inside player, so how could they let go at will? If they threw Gasol to the Bulls easily, they would be completely ruined.

Moreover, with rookie Guy joining this season, the team's performance is not particularly bad, at least much better than the previous two seasons, which also made head coach Flatlo insist that Gasol will definitely not leave.

Anyway, the rumors of this kind of transaction will never be so smooth at the beginning, and the enthusiasm of both parties to never speak will continue for a while. Before the end of February, the stalemate will not change.

As for whether the Grizzlies will really let go of their leading stars in the end, it depends on Guy's performance, and also on how they will perform this season. If they still spin around the playoff threshold, the Spaniard, who looks a little bit slutty, will not always be with the Grizzlies and waste their youth.

The Bulls' chasing him to the death seems to have had enough of the fatal injuries of weak inside attacks.

Otherwise, Skeles would not have made it so publicly. Whether it is Gasol or others, as long as they can score stably in the inside, the Bulls will need it, which is also a big frustration for the Chicago people.

This kind of deal that can shake the team's fundamentals is the most eye-catching. Of course, it is impossible for those media reporters to pay too much attention.

But old fried dough sticks like Murphy will not easily let go of any news reports about Celtics.

"Ange is really good at picking people. Steve is indeed a good pitcher. When he was in NCAA, this big man was called the number one three-pointer. He made 368 of 793 shots, with a shooting percentage of about 46%.

"If that guy could play at his level in college, he would definitely leave a goal in the NBA. At least Boston urgently needs such a pitcher now. Even if it is just a weapon to deter opponents from the outside."

Taking the statistics of Novak's college days, Murphy was slamming his mouth while lamenting the waste of resources of Houstonians. Such a number one novice was actually transferred to the Development League by the Rockets.

In fact, it is not the Rockets wasting resources. It’s just that Novak, a big man over two meters, cannot grab rebounds in the inside and cannot defend any player who matches him. How could Van Gundy have such a defensive loophole on the court? What the bald guy has always attached the most is the player’s defense.

Not to mention Novak, even if McGrady sometimes doesn't play hard in defense, this guy dares to stand on the sidelines and roar.

Although the defense is not very reliable, Murphy, like Rivers, is interested in the opponent's shooting ability outside the three-point line. A reporter as experienced as Murphy has long known what he wants Novak to come.

Boston does not lack the kind of defensive gates on the outside. What they lack is pitchers who can draw bows and shoot archers on the outside. Therefore, different needs have created different choices for the two teams.

The Celtics' lack of firepower outside the three-point line has caused Rivers a headache for a long time. Pierce can have a shooting percentage of 30% or 40%, but except him, only Szebiak is considered a pitcher.

Rondo basically has zero long-range firepower, and West is also unreliable. Unless Tony Allen is going crazy, he needs three-point support or pulls the opponent's defense away, the Celtics are a little confused.

This is also thanks to Jefferson and Chen Feng in the interior who can control rebounds with the help of a desperate shot. Even if you can't make a shot, you can still get a second offensive opportunity.

However, there are two tough guys who are snatching inside, but once the opponent shrinks the basket, especially in the last one or two minutes of the game, there is no point in the outside line, it is always a troublesome.

"If Steve can show his accuracy in college, then this deal will make sure to make a profit."

Murphy hopes that Novak can play his due role on the outside, which is also what Rivers and Angie expect, but whether novices can be reliable depends on time.

This calm transaction did not cause much storm, but Angie found a three-point shooter for Rivers. The effect is still unknown, but it is indeed a bit worth looking forward to.

Signing Weber and getting Novak, these two deals did not cause much sensation, and this was what Anji wanted to see. At this time, he just wanted to shoot and quietly enter the village.

However, Angie's low-keyness was ruthlessly broken three days later, because the madman who was cursed by him to strand the yacht in Lake Michigan actually replied to him through his agent.

"Two million a season? Are you sure?" Anji even wanted to dig his ears first. He was really afraid that he would hear it wrong, because the lunatic was sneering at the annual salary of 7 million.

"Danny, you heard it right, but my agent has a request." The voice on the other end of the phone said slowly.

"What requirements?" Angie was not overwhelmed by the previous conditions. He knew that such a lunatic would not choose Boston so easily. He had to consider what requirements he had.

"It's a mistake to guarantee playing time for those who give up on themselves."

Angie dared not give 100% guarantee for this kind of request, but after hearing this, Rivers said, "As long as he can guarantee his condition is fine, then playing time is not a problem. However, he must obey the arrangement. I don't want the Celtics to have an ambush time bomb."

Rivers said this not because he couldn't believe in his old friend, but... the lunatic man Angie dealt with could cause some trouble no matter where he placed it.

Rivers can only pray for a moment now that he should not be the next Carlesimo. No one wants to try it. Rivers is not a masochist either.

If signing Weber made Sanders feel sad, Angie's actions have not been noticed by many people.

In exchange for Novak, it was even more ignored. The Celtics' lineup adjustment was always so silent that even the cut of Ogvokandy was not very disturbed.

When both of these transactions were finalized, Angie's third goal made the Boston media furious, especially when the news of the signing was made public, those guys were simply a little confused.

"If this is a dream, I really want to say, this is not a nightmare, right?" Murphy looked at Angie and the lunatic guy who entered the press conference. He just wanted to cover his forehead with his hands.

It is estimated that at this moment, many people are doing the same actions as Murphy, and the reporters even wanted to pull Angie over and ask, "Are you sure that signing this guy is not to mess up the Celtics?"

Well, a guy who pinched his coach's neck when he got angry, no matter how he looked, he didn't look like a good guy.

The Celtics already have a little crazy man, and have found another old crazy man? Murphy said to Xie Miaomiao beside him with a wry smile, "I just hope this guy and Chen Feng don't fight on the training ground."

Xie Miaomiao's expression was also a little helpless, and she replied in a very unlady, "I hope my next report is not about the internal strife of the Celtics, I hope God bless you."

Almost all the reporters looked at the guy sitting upright on the stage with such an expression, Ratriel Spreeville, a madman who is famous in the NBA.

Well, okay, now there are two lunatics in the Celtics, I hope this place won’t really become a lunatic asylum…
