Legendary Basketball Tycoon

"Dark, do you have any ideas?!" Bruce asked casually.

"Oh, Dirk has no idea on this matter, because Dirk has no agent, and he is still in the rookie contract period, this year is the team option, so the general managers of those teams are Take the initiative to call me and ask for a quote." Mitch Kupchak replied slowly.

"No matter which team comes to ask for an offer, they will refuse. Even if they come to match Dirk, Mitch, you have to keep Dirk for me." Bruce replied decisively.

Bruce is not afraid of Nowitzki leaving, because he knows what kind of contribution Nowitzki can make for the team. Would he rather cut his salary than go to the team's main team to win the championship? !

He was afraid that other teams would match Nowitzki's contract, and that would be troublesome.

"This..." Mitch Kupchak hesitated slightly.

"If you have something to say, just say it directly, don't hesitate, explain everything today, and see what needs to be dealt with." Bruce is annoying those who talk half and leave half, and want him to guess blindly? ? !

"Well, it's actually like this..." Mitch Kupchak said all his doubts next.

That's right, Shannowitzki is strong in the power forward position, but even so, Mitch Kupchak is not optimistic about Nowitzki. Why, the reason is that when Yao Ming didn't enter the league before, Inside defense with Mourning, then the offense can only be Dirk Nowitzki. Of course, Nowitzki himself also played very well, especially in the interior offense, but now it is different. Yao Ming is about to enter the team. Who is the offensive right in the interior? Is it Dirk Nowitzki in the lottery area? For the champion Yao Ming, this fool knows how to choose it (any general manager knows that the champion is the cornerstone of the team, and it is impossible for a player in the lottery to grab the prestige of the champion).

Yao Ming is an offensive player, and Nowitzki is also an offensive player. Both are insiders. In the past, Mourning was responsible for defending. Now they are all attacking. !

So when a team proposed to trade Nowitzki, Mitch Kupchak was tempted, plus Duncan's contract expired and became a free agent this year, so the opportunity came, trade Novi Tsky made room for Duncan, and that's the best outcome Mitch Kupchak could have imagined, and the best outcome for the team's future.

Mitch Kupchak also discussed with Rick Carlisle, the head coach of the team who will take office soon. Rick Carlisle also agreed with this idea. If the team does not have Kobe Bryant, the two offensive lines can be formed. There is no problem with the combination of the twin towers, but with Kobe Bryant, only one can be left in the inside attack. Obviously, it is either Dirk Nowitzki to leave or Yao Ming to leave, and Rick Carlisle thinks that Yao Ming is not needed, because He's not good at coaching slow bigs, Nowitzki is okay, and Rick Carlisle likes Nowitzki. But there is no way, Yao Ming is the champion, and he is just the new head coach, and he has no decision-making power, so he can only say sorry to Nowitzki.

And Mitch Kupchak thinks just the opposite, he needs to beat Bruce's horse, so keeping Yao Ming, the owner's compatriot, is the best outcome.

Bruce didn't know what the two were thinking, otherwise he would definitely scold them for having nothing to do when they were full. When is it the team's turn to make decisions, you are just the executors, okay?

"This question is indeed a bit..." Bruce also had a headache.

In terms of power, Nowitzki + Yao Ming can be regarded as the most lethal insider combination in NBA history. The previous NBA double tower combination is also not bad, but everyone is used to the configuration of one attack and one defense. Well now, there are two offensive configurations, so what about the defense? Should the team use offense instead of defense, give up comprehensive defense and switch to a comprehensive attack mode? !

This combination of insiders may not be a problem in the regular season, but what about the playoffs? ! In the playoffs, you have to fight for defense. If you just attack without defense, it will be a huge hidden danger, right? !

It's a pity that he offended Garnett to death at the time. If Garnett is still on the team, then the defensive end can completely let Garnett be competent. Offense is left to Yao Ming.

Hey...I regret the beginning!

"Well, it remains the same. In the new season, let Rick focus on Yao Ming to practice defense. In the regular season, Yao Ming is still responsible for the offense. In the playoffs, Dirk will focus on Yao Ming and defend. Now that's the only way. "

"As for the Tim Duncan you want, I advise you to give up this idea. Tim Duncan will eventually re-sign with the Spurs. Besides, he won't like the atmosphere in New York, and he didn't see our nemesis the Knicks. Have you all gone to poach? Did Tim Duncan go to the Knicks for a tryout? Obviously not, so some players like a quieter life and don’t like a noisy environment.” Bruce tried to convince Mitch Kupche gram.

Mitch Kupchak thought about it after listening to it, yes, the Knicks shouted so loudly, but I have never heard of Duncan going to the Knicks for a tryout. Duncan only has children in Orlando. He had a trial training in an airy place, and the others were rejected. It can be seen that Duncan is a very childlike player.

"Okay, I see, I'll work out these things with Coach Rick."

"Oh, by the way, after Yao Ming participates in the draft, you can arrange Mickey to let him study with Hakim Olajuwon, especially the fantastic footwork and defensive experience. The training costs are paid by the team here. ." Bruce said hello.

In Bruce's view, Dayao still has to learn Olajuwon's stunts in advance, and Olajuwon's defense must not fall behind, which is related to the team's ability to win the championship in the shortest time in the future.

Then there is the national team. After Dayao participates in the draft, it means he has to fight for the country. This is what Bruce and the Basketball Association agreed in advance. When Dayao was studying in the United States, the national team would not recruit Dayao. In the game, because Dayao has to stay healthy enough to make himself the number one pick in the draft and make the Chinese people compete for face. After entering the NBA, it will be different. Dayao must play for the country, which is unquestionable.

What kind of achievements will Dayao, who has been apprenticed to in advance, have expectations. Bruce is also looking forward to this point. He is now imagining that Dayao will kill the Quartet with his fantastic footsteps on the intercontinental court.
