Chapter 698: What happened in the past three years? (Nine)

Chris Mullin’s departure had long been expected by Bruce. After all, he is not a direct descendant of Bruce. The exchange of his team is nothing more than fulfilling his dream of playing in his hometown of New York. There is nothing else. .

But Mourning is different. This operation is not trivial. Bruce doesn't know if the operation will go as smoothly as in the previous life. After all, the butterfly effect is still relatively large when the operation is performed a year earlier.

So Bruce can only wish Mourning's surgery a success.

Chris Mullin is gone, because the Bruce can get Ron Artest in the draft in 1999, and Yao Ming also came in to add Mourning after he left. This is really not a big problem, just such a smooth transition.

...

With the end of the 1999-2000 draft season, all teams in the league have also started their long regular season journey.

But after one season, a strong team is still a strong team, and a weak team is still a weak team.

Of course, the decline of several teams is regrettable.

First of all, I have to say that there are no Jordan and Pippen plus the "Zen Master" Phil Jackson's bull. In addition to the speed of sinking, it is jaw-dropping.

In the 1998 season, the Bulls were the third from the bottom in the league and the last to the Eastern Conference. The Bulls in the 1999 season were still the same. Turner "gets" the top three picks and strives to get rid of the influence of the above three people after leaving the team.

It's a pity, Bulls general manager Jerry Klaus planned well, but he lacked a long-term vision.

It’s true that the power forward "Captain" Elton Brand was chosen in 1998, because if Ginobili hadn’t played well with the Spurs in his previous life, Elton Brand would definitely be in this draft. The first existence.

But 2000 years ago, the Bulls chose a power forward Marcus Fitzel with the fourth overall pick. What the **** is this? They chose a player with the same position as Elton Brand with such a high overall pick. , I want him to play as a substitute for Elton Brand, or let Elton Brand play in the center position. This is the last thing I can say. After all, they are all inside players. It is true that changing positions The problem is not big.

The most surprising thing is that in 2001, when Elton Brand and the Los Angeles Clippers were traded for center "boxing champion" Tyson Chandler, he returned. The Bulls picked a center Eddie Curry back with the fourth overall pick. Why, did the Bulls get dark on the inside? !

After being suppressed by Jordan this "legendary" guard for so many years, Bulls general manager Jerry Kraus wants to change his mind and prepare to make a breakthrough inside, right?

For three years in a row, they have all been inside players, not a single defender? !

This is the handwriting of Bulls General Manager Jerry Krauss. I have to say that if he were the general manager of the New York Hans, he would have been driven by Bruce a long time ago. Even if Jerry Klaus has the ability, it is useless. Without the vision of the future strategy, he can only be a puppet. Existence, like Mickey Kupchak now.

The demise of the Bulls is certain, and basically the same as the giants Celtics, the demise is definitely more than 8-9 years of existence, and it will definitely continue to be bad without waiting for Rose to participate in the draft.

As for the other team, it is Mosaic. Yes, it is Mosaic. Olajuwon, who has already reached the end of his career, has the ability to turn the tide. In addition, Mosaic management really has a poor vision in the draft. The selected person is not even a role player, and if it continues like this, it is estimated that it will become the existence of the "No. 1 pick" like the Bulls.

But the problem is that Bruce will not let Yao Ming join the Mosaic team in this life, so who do you choose? !

You have to have the confidence to compete with the Bulls for the “No. 1 pick”. Don’t forget that the Bulls are a team with a championship title, and the mosaic of this world doesn’t even have a championship. Who do you want Stern to pick, fool Everyone knows that they will definitely choose a famous team!

The mosaic problem is really serious. There is no way. Olajuwon’s salary has basically locked up half of his assets. In addition, there are many veterans in the team. The existence of these veterans also takes up a part of the team. It’s completely impossible to change the salary of China, unless all these veterans are traded away, or Olajuwon’s salary is reduced, which of course is just talking.

But no matter what, these two teams are gradually beginning to decline. The Bulls are already gone, and Mosaic is already on the road to decline.

...

After the regular season of the 1999-2000 season, it was surprising that there were two teams in the league that shocked the nation.

The first is the Seattle SuperSonics in the West. In these two years, after the Sonics passed a coaching change, Larry Brown actually took the Sonics to the third position in the West in only two years. , This is obviously unimaginable, we must know that the west is now more intense than the east.

Not to mention the Lakers with O'Neal + McGrady + Phil Jackson, the double tower combination of Tim Duncan and David Robinson of the defending champion Spurs is also not to be underestimated, plus the Jazz led by Jerry Sloan. Several teams are also difficult to play. Okay!

Larry Brown was able to reach such a height in only two years, and his ability is really awesome. You must know that the current SuperSonics lineup is also very strong, with many thorns, and these people can be kneaded together so quickly, the famous coach is the famous coach, and there are indeed many things.

Through the rectification of the Sonics privately by Bruce, the current Sonics definitely makes all the teams in the league so fearful. Let’s take a look at the current Sonics lineup and see if it makes them fearful? !

Center C: Ben Wallace, Avidas Sabonis, Kurt Thomas

Power forward PF: Rasheed Wallace, Rashard Lewis, Austin Crosier

Small forward SF: Detlev Schramf, James Posey

Shooting guard SG: Allen Iverson, Jason Terry, Raja Bell

Point guard PG: Chauncey Billups, Eric Snow, Doug Christie

Look at this lineup, whether it is a starter or a substitute, is invincible at this time. Even if the Lakers and Spurs have famous coaches and star bonuses, it is very difficult to compete with this supersonic.

No way, the double Wallace combination can make the supersonic inside net fly, plus the existence of breakthrough madman Iverson, the pull of the grim shooter Detrev Schramf, Chauncey Billups The rhythm of control.
