Legendary Basketball Tycoon

"Isn't this one moment or another, shouldn't we also have to keep up with the pace of the times!" Bruce blushed and said roughly.

Anyway, it is impossible for Bruce to admit that he has turned his back. How could he be an ancient "Han Gaozu"? That must not be the case, Bruce thought with self-regulation.

"Haha..." Paul Allen also stopped mentioning Bruce's embarrassment.

"By the way, why don't you guys provide information for my Sonics team now?!"

The Sonics hasn’t traded so far. It’s really weird. The reason why the Sonics is still on hold is undoubtedly Paul Allen is quite confident in Bruce. Although Bruce is really a bit poor in introducing the head coach, he is in the player draft. And the talent of Bruce in terms of trading goals is unmatched by any scout or general manager.

Nonsense Bruce came back from rebirth. Of course he knows that those players are suitable and those players are not suitable. If he has no memory of his previous life, then try to replace him, and make sure you don't want it.

"This, this..."

How dare Bruce say that he has no face to give advice to the Sonics because of his introduction of Gentry as the supersonic head coach!

"Well, you kid, I know, I won't deny your contribution just because of your small mistake. You still have to think more about the supersonic!"

In fact, Paul Allen knows Bruce's current thoughts, but in his opinion, it is not a problem at all. If Bruce is not for the Sonics every year, then the Sonics can win three championships and establish a dynasty, it is undoubtedly a foolish dream.

Now Paul Allen is going to continue to force Bruce’s ability to see people. The Sonics’ general manager, Bob Whitchite, who is nicknamed "Trader", is only outstanding in dealings with general managers of other teams. The ability to see people or the draft is far worse, so we can only let Bruce continue to help the Sonics draft and provide trades.

"All right, you give me the current player list of the Sonics, and fax me a list of other teams in the league. I'll analyze it." Seeing that Bruce can't hide, he can only bite the bullet. .

"Okay, no problem. I'll wait for your call. It's better to hurry up. You know that the trade will be more frequent after the All-Star Game is over. I hope the team still has to be competitive."

Now the Sonics ranks sixth in the Western Conference. This position can be said to be inferior. The Mavericks or the Kings and Warriors who follow are very tight. If the Sonics did not make the playoffs this year, it would be a little bit. It’s embarrassing. I don’t know how many people in the league want to see his jokes. This is obviously a scene that Paul Allen doesn’t want to see. Anyway, the team has to make the playoffs, otherwise he would be sorry for Seattle’s. people.

Compared to Bruce’s side, it’s much easier. In Bruce’s view, if the Sonics chooses to trade, there is still room for a deal. With his impression of the Sonics’ list of players last year, that lineup will enter the playoffs. Yes, as for how far you have gone, I dare not say, of course, if you really can’t make it, then it’s undoubtedly Gentry’s incompetence. It’s not incompetence that even the team can’t make the playoffs. You know, Iverson is in charge of the team.

"Okay, I'll fax it to you after I analyze it."

If you really want to say the names of players one by one, then it's strange that Bruce doesn't go crazy listening.

How inconvenient, but luckily there is still a fax machine at home.

Not to mention that it is convenient to have money. Bruce’s mountain villa home has such one. Because he has a lot of businesses in the United States, Bruce needs to fax him from time to time to see if there is anything wrong. So At this point in time, there is a fax machine at home, which is absolutely rich, and other people only have this equipment in large companies.

Bruce and Paul Allen talked a few words before hanging up the phone and slowly waiting for the fax to arrive.

...

Squeak...

Sure enough, just listening to the voice, Bruce knew that the fax had arrived.

After getting the content sent by the fax, Bruce also looked at it carefully.

The first thing he looked at was the current Seattle SuperSonics player roster.

Note:

Center C: Avidas Sabonis, Ben Wallace, P.J. Brown

Power forward PF: Clifford Robinson, Kurt Thomas

Small forward SF: Detlev Schramf, Dale Ellis, Kevin Gamble

Shooting guard SG: Allen Iverson, Michael Finley, Doug Christie, Craig Ellu

Point guard PG: Terry Porter, Nate McMillan, Chucky Atkins

This is the current list of SuperSonics players, but Bruce frowned after reading this list.

I go!

The Sonics are now a veteran a bit too much!

It’s not going to work like this. Although veterans mostly play an experience role in the playoffs, it must be a long time for a team to age so seriously that it will take a long time. Let’s refer to the Bulls’ departure from Jordan and the others. After the situation, we know how difficult it is to exchange blood.

It can be said that the Bulls were at the bottom of the league before they got Rose, and they didn't get normal until they got the No. 1 pick in 2008.

From the beginning of 1999 to 2008, for a whole ten years, I think that Bruce feels that the Bulls are too pitiful. In these ten years, the Bulls' annual pick is either the top three or the lottery area. Why can't they rise!

Hey... I hope the Sonics will not go the same way as the Bulls.

Let's just take a look and see if those players can be traded.

Bruce compared the player roster while comparing the contract duration of the players.

The first is the center position. The three players Sabonis, Big Ben and PJ Brown basically won’t choose to move. Although Sabonis is now replaced by Big Ben as the starting position, the European pass is still a bit oily. Yes, besides, the former Sabonis has only played for one NBA team, and he has not been traded when he is old, so Bruce will not trade him this time.

As for Big Ben and PJ Brown, there is no need to say more about the former Big Ben. Only fools will trade the Big Ben at the All-Star level. What's more, the current Big Ben is not only a little bit stronger than the previous one, the Big Ben is not. Will leave. Although the latter PJ Brown can't threaten the position of Big Ben and Sabonis, it is possible to keep it. After all, Sabonis can't play for long. After he retires, PJ Brown can just take over, but there is a premise that PJ Brown is resistant. Staying lonely, waiting for such a long time.

Of course, if P.J. Brown is unwilling to just wait like this, Bruce can also pull him out for a trade, but it's just a replacement center. Bruce is actually selected.

In the next few years, the draft center has a lot of positions. Although there are not many high-quality centers, it is not a problem to find a substitute. If it is not possible, it is the same to recommend Brad Miller to the Sonics. After all, Brad Miller is also a player with his own system!

That's right, it is Brad Miller who is the most determined performer of Adelman's "Princeton Tactics"!
