The Heat are toxic...

Wade was reimbursed and got back a Stoudemire with glass attributes. He also had to rent a team doctor from the Hawks to help Stoudemire formulate a training plan. Now he has chosen a glass man and has not played in a single game.

Just reimburse for the season.

The Heat are like a breath of fresh air. Fans are still excited about the free market that has begun to go crazy, so they come up with a different kind of news, adding a different kind of... laughter to this crazy summer?

Indeed, the Heat are now a target of ridicule.

Sympathy... When a tragedy like this happens to a team, they will definitely receive sympathy.

But Pat Riley's team was different. Ever since he planned to trade Magic for Jordan with the Lakers, he established his reputation as a "cold-blooded devil coach."

After Van Gundy left the Heat, he also began to speak out and criticize Pat Riley for taking away his head coaching position.

Liu Mang is getting ready to start his European trip, and San Niu will also go to Europe together, but San Niu is there for fun. When Liu Mang's European trip is over, they will return to China together, and they won't be together in the middle.

Liu Mang has his own job.

Coach Kruger simply settled in Liu Mang's villa on the West Coast in Los Angeles. They had deals to negotiate with teams in the West, and it was more convenient to live there.

Trades are sometimes settled within three or two days, just like the Nets are determined to rebuild and the Trail Blazers are determined to put aside the old history.

But if the opponent is a team that is not in a hurry to trade, or the party that wants to trade more cannot reveal its true goal too much, then it will have to take its time.

Liu Mang's plan for the western strategy has two goals, which exactly meet these two aspects.

Liu Mang is not in a hurry. O'Neal has been acquired, Wade will come back in December, and Gasol has been selected. At the back, Liu Mang will add Wade, Jason Terry, and Rondo to the structure; forward Tracy McGrady,

Although the structure of Grant Hill and Battier; Marion, Kwame Brown, and O'Neal Jr. have not yet completed the construction, the goals are clear, and it doesn't matter if the next two goals are slower.

All good things come in a long way.

However, when Liu Mang and the three girls were preparing to take the charter flight booked by Levia to London, on July 10th, something happened with the Cavaliers...

The Cavaliers sent a first-round pick and Scott Pollard's 6.27 million expiring contract, Eric Snow, and Shannon Brown in exchange for Chauncey Billups from the Pistons.

!

Billups' new contract has a starting salary of 11.39 million and a total of 61 million for five years.

This is the first time Billups has received a multi-million contract in his career.

The Pistons themselves are not willing to give such a high contract, and of course, Billups is not willing to keep it either.

Billups, who jumped out of the original $7.13 million contract in the last year of the contract, has been actively contacting the Cavaliers since the free market opened. The 31-year-old Billups...the Cavaliers are willing to spend money and can only sign

This is a star who is past his prime.

Such a deal can be regarded as a signing. The Cavaliers spent 61 million to sign a 31-year-old veteran. His strength will definitely improve, but the five-year contract is still a player option, and it is difficult to say about the future salary space.

Just like the three girls who were waiting for the plane with Liu Mang at the airport, they were all not optimistic about the signing of the Cavaliers.

Judging from the data, Billups, who averaged 17 points, 3.8 rebounds, 7.2 assists and 1.2 steals per game last season and only averaged two turnovers per game, has a starting salary of more than 11 million, which is not excessive, but considering his age and the fact that the opponent is from the Pistons,

That would be different.

The main thing is that San Niu uses Liu Mang to compare with Billups...

This is a bit excessive.

However, Liu Mang was quite surprised by Billups' choice. He originally thought Billups would go to the West.

"It seems that you haven't learned your lesson well, and you still want to deal with me..."

Looking at the little girl expressing her opinion that Billups was no match for his uncle after joining the Cavaliers, Liu Mang felt that this little girl was right...

…

…

There is a saying that goes well, if you lose something in the east, you will gain something in the elm.

The Lakers are invincible inside, even the Hawks were almost swept, which brought endless pressure to other teams and also gave other teams opportunities.

If there are teams that want to strengthen, there are teams that have the opportunity to exchange for better bargaining chips.

Now Popovich has a chance to bite the Hawks.

Taking advantage of the Hawks is not an easy thing, and Popovich enjoys this feeling now.

Who knows that Popovich has the rights to sign the South American players that the Hawks want?

The Spurs already have Oberto, who is also a power forward of Argentina's golden generation and can also play center. Popovich doesn't have much interest in another Argentine power forward. He just selected several Argentine players in the second round that year.

At this time, Coach Kruger had a big head, and Price, who came to Los Angeles to meet Coach Kruger, also had a big head.

It seems that Liu Mang is determined to win these two goals. To be honest, if he changes to another team, the owners of these two goals may not be so insistent.

But who makes them the Eagles?

It is also a good choice to grind slowly. Liu Mang is not in a hurry at all, but the two managers are a little anxious.

There are only a few people on the team! There are only about ten players at full capacity.

This year, Liu Mang is taking the lead in building the team, and both of them admire Liu Mang's team building ideas, but they also want to operate. If they win these two players, they can go to the free market to show off.

Many veterans and powerful players who want to win the championship have been in contact with the Eagles, but without getting the inside track, they have no way to negotiate with other players first.

The inside line is very important, especially starting from the season that just ended, the inside line has become very important.

Originally, after three consecutive championships, Coach Kruger and Price thought the same as Liu Mang, thinking that changes in the league's rules would lead to the arrival of the outside era. As a result, the Lakers made a big move and forcibly delayed the arrival of the inside era.

It's true that the Eagles further strengthened the team's outside line in the middle of last year's season, but they can't relax on the inside line either. At least they won't be too far behind against the Lakers, Marriotts and Bulls.

After discussing countermeasures with Price, Coach Kruger came up with a plan.

"Boss, is this okay?" Coach Kruger felt strange.

"It doesn't matter, Sean will go to a team that is also capable of competing for the championship and will have more playing time. We have already done a good job." Price explained forcefully.

"I'm not talking about this, I'm talking about can the same method work?" Coach Kruger was not as hesitant as Liu Mang in this regard.

"That drunkard doesn't know how we talked with Big Bird before..."

…

It is still very good red wine, and the taste is still as mellow. The brand of red wine has not been changed. It is still the same brand and the same year of red wine taken from Price’s wine cellar...

That light is still so bright...

We all hired the same sommelier, and he was still so handsome...

However, the location of the restaurant has changed from New York to a seaside restaurant in Los Angeles. Of course, if you want to drink red wine, it will not be paired with seafood. Although the steaks in Los Angeles are high in iron, they are still very good.

The owner of the Hawks and the CEO of the Spurs gathered for dinner in Los Angeles, which no one expected.

Compared with Larry Bird, the last target who used the same routine, Popovich is not so dissatisfied. Instead, he feels that... his fortune has turned around?

"The 27th overall pick in the second round of 2002 plus a first-rounder in 2009 can be replaced by Shane Battier?" Popovich felt like he was getting a piece of cake.

Popovich just wants to catch the Hawks' appetite, and it would be great if he can get a first-round pick. Originally, Popovich only wanted one or two second-round picks. Who knew such a good thing could happen?

It fell to him, Popovich.

Price offered to give Battier to Popovich in exchange for a 2002 second-round pick and the Spurs' 2009 first-round pick.

The second-round pick in 2002...Popovich himself has almost forgotten that he just has the habit of using second-round picks to select international players who perform well in the World Series. If the Hawks hadn't mentioned it, he might have been used as an add-on to the trade.

Send the head out.

In the original time and space, Popovich gave the rookie to the Rockets for nothing.

For Popovich, this situation is equivalent to using the 2009 first-round pick to trade for Battier, which is surreal for Popovich.

Even if it was the Spurs' first-round pick in 2009, Popovich was confident that his team would not pick too high. In 2009, the best pick was in the 20s.

If you want to select a player of Battier's caliber with a pick in the twenties... Popovich is not saying that he has never done it, but he only gets it once in a while. He has to ensure that he can do it with a pick in the twenties

No one can guarantee that a player like Battier will be selected.

The more this happens, the more Popovich feels there is a conspiracy.

"Greg, if I said I wanted to help you deal with the Lakers, would you believe it?" Price asked.

Popovich took a sip of wine. Based on his many years of drinking experience, this was really good wine. After thinking about it for a while, Popovich replied: "I believe you."

When Price himself asked "Do you believe it?", he was very nervous, but he didn't expect that Popovich actually believed it! And it didn't seem like he was being sarcastic!

Why don't you believe it? The Hawks just lost to the Lakers and will definitely find ways to stumble the Lakers. Popovich feels that if he is faced with the same situation, he will do the same or even crazier behavior.

For example, if Parker applies for a trade, he will definitely pretend that he wants to trade Parker to the Lakers, win over the Lakers, and then send Parker to a rival team of the Lakers, even if he suffers a loss.

Originally, Popovich didn't like the Hawks, including the management, that much, but now he feels like they are on the same page.

As for whether the Hawks will be stronger because of this... Popovich has a headache in the West. The Suns, Lakers, and Mavericks are all there. If he can get the opportunity to strengthen the small forward, how can he give up.

"BEAT-LA!" Popovich showed a cunning smile.
Chapter completed!
