Wage increase!

Of course Liu Mang was happy. He was worried about the possible impact on the team's salary space, but Price told him not to worry about it. Anyway, the new terms would not start until next season and would not affect this summer.

Liu Mang returned to his villa in Miami and continued to enjoy the last few days of leisure time. On the night of the 30th, Liu Mang was about to fly to Italy. A golden phoenix flew out of the Italian chicken coop, Andrea Bargnani.

After becoming the No. 1 pick in the NBA, some basketball fans in this football country saw the hope of their country's basketball. The basketball atmosphere was booming, and Liu Mang wanted to take advantage of the popularity.

There were two nights left to spend with his family. Liu Mang put aside those troubles and watched TV with his father.

And then...this sleepless night...

The weirdest thing this summer has happened...

After the finals, there is either no news, or big news that makes the world shake.

This time, another earth-shattering thing happened, and it was related to the Eagles again!

Yahoo Sports reporter Adrian Wojnarowski broke a shocking news!

Hawks trying to trade for Timberwolves' Kevin Garnett!

When Liu Mang received McGrady's call, he squirted out!

Then Schwartz's call came, but Liu Mang still wasn't sure.

Liu Mang quickly turned on his computer and saw the news that quickly occupied the headlines of major sports websites.

"The Atlanta Hawks sent Andre Iguodala, Jose Calderon, Josh Smith, Rasheed Wallace, a 2008 unprotected first-round pick and a 2010 lottery-protected first-round pick.

Draft picks, request a trade to the Minnesota Timberwolves, request Kevin Garnett."

Liu Mang was dumbfounded by this news!

But what was even more shocking came, less than half an hour later, new news came again, the Timberwolves...rejected...

Indeed, if you want to get Garnett, such a bargaining chip is scary, but it is not excessive. Compared with the bargaining chip that the Celtics had in the summer of 2007 for the one-year-old Garnett in the original time and space, it is only half a pound. At that time

The Celtics gave half of the team resources they had saved for five or six years to the Timberwolves, even with Kevin McHale.

Although Josh Smith is good, it is only relative. In the original time and space, in 2013, the Hawks tried to trade Josh Smith for Gasol, but the Lakers refused.

At that time, Gasol was 33 years old and had the lowest statistics of his career, averaging 13.7 points, 8.4 rebounds and 4 assists per game. Josh Smith was at his peak, averaging 17 points, 8.4 rebounds, 4.2 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.8 blocks per game.

Regardless of talent or strength, Josh Smith will never reach the heights of Gasol in his lifetime, let alone Garnett.

The physical fitness of Josh Smith is definitely better, but talent is not just physical fitness, golf intelligence, and the use of the body... Although Josh Smith has received more targeted training in the Eagles, his upper limit is obvious

.

But even so, Josh Smith has a great possibility. At least it seems now, there is a great possibility of becoming a poor man's version of Amare Stoudemire, and a poor man's version with enhanced offense and defense.

That kind of.

However, the Timberwolves actually refused!

…

On the far west coast, there is a city of angels, a luxurious seaside hotel, and a dark-looking man showing complicated and tangled emotions on the seaside.

Once upon a time, he swore that even if he was beaten to death, tortured to death, he would never win a championship, he would never join the Eagles, and even if he was beaten to death, he would not join the one who hugged him.

They have won three consecutive championships without him, but with him around, even if they win again, people won’t feel that they have much to do with him.

But suddenly the news was flying, and when his agent called him, the Hawks offered him a bargain that no team could refuse.

Garnett is no longer calm...

Playing with Liu Mang and Tracy McGrady, Garnett felt like he was going to heaven!

The best teammates he ever had were Marbury during his rookie contract, as well as the aging Madman and Alien. Just like that, he reached the conference finals in the Western Conference.

Playing with the Maimang combination that won three consecutive championships...

Garnett thinks face is a thing... How can winning be fun? They used half the team... Although half the team was substituted for him, these talented young people were used as bargaining chips to make him feel

Got enough respect.

Big cities, rich teams, superstars, championships to win...

Who wants to stop him from going to the Hawks now? Who is Garnett in a hurry with?

but……

Half an hour later, Garnett's agent called again...

The trade was rejected by the Timberwolves!

Garnett was in ecstasy when suddenly a basin of cold water was poured down...

Garnett hinted that he should calm down. He had never thought about going to the Hawks. Who would want to go to a team that has won three consecutive championships...

Then a few minutes later, the agent called him again.

"Kevin, the Eagles have upped the ante..."

After the first plan failed, the Hawks persevered. They still had a second trading chip. The Atlanta Hawks sent Andre Iguodala, Jose Calderon, and Josh Smith, an unprotected first choice in 2008.

Round draft pick, willing to add Jason Terry.

When Garnett heard the news, he hung up the phone silently, and then began to writhe crazily on the beach. He was so high...

The Eagles are so sincere, what if he doesn't go? He must go!

Just when Garnett was so excited, his agent called again, and the Timberwolves once again rejected the Hawks' trade application...

In just two hours, Garnett experienced the ups and downs of his life... The strings in his head collapsed, and he started roaring and dancing on the beach...

A passing child quickly hugged the adult's lap: "Mom, what's wrong with that uncle?"

"I guess he's a lunatic. Let's go further away..."

If Liu Mang were asked to dub this scene, Liu Mang would sing: So exciting...

…

Price and the coaching staff are going crazy!

Is the Timberwolves front office stuck in the head?

They don't agree to such a bargaining chip? They can all use it to exchange for Duncan! If Duncan hadn't been suffering from leg injuries, they would have wanted to propose a trade to the Spurs.

"Boss, what should we do? It has been exposed now. The transaction has not been completed, and our team will be greatly affected." Coach Kruger said seriously.

"I don't know what kind of madness that damn McHale has!" Price was furious.

At this point Stockton interjected: "I think it's because of the Celtics..."

As soon as these words came out, the Eagles coaching staff and management immediately understood.

The stars of the Celtics are very powerful in the NBA. Many team managers are Celtic stars. Apart from the owner, Kevin McHale is the most powerful person in the management of the Timberwolves.

Just when Price was about to scold the Celtics guys, the call came.

Price suppressed his anger and answered the phone. The person next to him looked at the caller ID, and the note was Suns general manager Steve Kerr...

After the Suns playoffs, their previous general manager was fired, and Steve Kerr, who had previously served as a commentator, was invited to come to the Suns.

Price talked for a while, becoming more and more excited as he talked, and all the previous unhappiness was gone.
Chapter completed!
