Legendary Basketball Tycoon

"Mark, you know that Dirk's deal is definitely not enough for Hu Weidong and Wang Zhizhi to add up, you see..." Bruce said calmly and slowly.

Cuban, who was on the side, saw that Bruce let go, as if he was afraid of Bruce's remorse, and hurriedly said: "It's not enough, it's okay, you say what you want, except for Jason Kidd and Grant Hill, you can do whatever you want. pick."

Just kidding, Kidd and Hill can't be traded. He's still waiting for Nowitzki to arrive and make them into Dallas' new "Big Three" combination. As for the others, he doesn't like it. Bruce can just take it if he wants it. Anyway, he's not afraid of those powerful players joining. We don't have anything else, just more money! In a word, we are not bad for money!

Oh, other than Kidd and Hill, any other options? !

In fact, none of the existing players in the Mavericks, including Kidd and Hill, look down on Bruce.

Let me put it this way, Bruce is the kind of boss who likes to trade players for draft picks, and then trades those players who are worth the money for draft picks and repeats the cycle. After all, Bruce is reborn from a previous life. game.

What's the point of trading players for players? God knows how many junk players are used as extras. The most important thing is that Bruce doesn't want it, but he doesn't want it. It's really annoying!

"Well, then I'll add guard Michael Finley to my side, and you'll just add the 2001 and 2002 first-round unprotected picks."

"Of course Don's coaching contract must also be included. As for the trade match, ask your general manager to discuss it with Mitch Kupchak in person, and if there is a difference, just use the player as a bonus! ' Bruce said slowly and nonchalantly.

To get rid of it, Hu Weidong and Wang Zhizhi went to replace Dirk Nowitzki. Everyone knows that they can't be replaced, and it is definitely impossible to add more chips.

Because considering that Rick Carlisle's assistant coaching contract with the team has expired, Rick Carlisle can now be out of the scope of player transactions, and Rick Carlisle can come and go freely. So the last three years of Nelson's contract is a big problem, and Bruce obviously sees this. No, he sent Michael Finley, who was also a member of the Mavericks champion in his previous life, back to Dallas. Since he is leaving , then the whole family walks together neatly!

Using some of Nowitzki's salary and Michael Finley's salary to offset the last three years of Nelson's contract is the finishing touch for Bruce.

That's right, Bruce is not only cleaning up the forces left behind by Kobe, but also trading away the players who Dirk Nowitzki has a good personal relationship with. The team has only one voice, and that is the voice of Bruce alone, and the team has only one leader in the future. , that is Dayao. All players unrelated to these have to be sent away.

After Cuban heard what Bruce said, he was obviously relieved. As long as Bruce is willing to let these two people come to Dallas, everything is easy to say, not that he will give away the last three years of old Nelson's contract plus the first round of the next two years. The draft right, this is not a problem. As long as Nowitzki comes to the Mavericks, how much will the first-round picks in the next two years be worth? The "Big Three" will definitely play in the playoffs. The first round Signing that is completely worthless.

"No problem, I'll ask Downey to come to New York to discuss with Mitch Kupchak in person." Cuban replied happily.

Wait a minute, Donny, isn't that the Donny you thought of? !

When Bruce heard Downey's name, he was a little confused. Isn't this Downey the son of old Nelson? Why did Cuban choose to let his son stay as the general manager? What did you think? !

"Donnie, Don's son?!"

"Yeah! What?!"

"You told his father to get out and left his son, what do you think?!"

I admire, I have to admire, Cuban really played 666!

"Actually, Donny is quite capable. I like him very much, and he has always been on my side, not with Don..." Cuban replied eloquently.

From Cuban's point of view, old Nelson is old Nelson, and little Nelson is little Nelson. As long as these two father and son don't mess with me together, then it's fine. Whoever messes with him can get out.

Bruce was really dumbfounded, and in his previous life, old Nelson also ran away from the Mavericks. At that time, little Nelson did not go with his father, and he stayed in the position of the general manager of the Mavericks for more than 20 years.

It's really amazing. The boss who forced his father away is still willing to work for him. This person is indeed amazing.

Of course, Bruce really admires Nelson Jr.'s ability. To be precise, Jr. Nelson's ability to deal with international players is better than the general manager of all teams in the league. Otherwise, there will be no Nowitzki before and after Doncic. .

This is the trick. If Bruce didn't let Mitch Kupchak come to New York, he must have been looking for this little Nelson.

Mitch Kupchak and Nelson Jr. were the most capable general managers of the younger generation in the 1990s.

"Okay, you decide!"

"There are other things, if not, I will go first, there are a lot of broken things in the team waiting for me to deal with!" Bruce has no time to chat with Cuban now.

The team left two future superstars at once, and also picked up a future tactical genius. Thinking about it is a thing that makes me unhappy.

It's better to flash first, lest something happen.

Cuban is in a good mood now. After convincing Bruce to trade Dirk Nowitzki to himself, he also gave old Nelson to Bruce, which made him extremely happy.

I want to find a hotel to open a bottle of red wine to celebrate.

Cuban originally wanted to ask Bruce to join him, and wanted to talk to him about whether they could cooperate in the future, but then he knew that Bruce was eager to leave.

It's also that no one is in the mood to celebrate with himself now. After all, Bruce just gave him a "big gift". It's understandable that Bruce is in a bad mood.

"OK, you go first, I'll call you if I have something!" Cuban said with a phone call gesture.

After Bruce nodded, he immediately opened the door and walked out.

But then you know, as soon as the door opened, Bruce saw the appearance of a bald head!

The bald man stared at Bruce with a smile on his face.

Obviously, bald Xiao came with Stern's instructions.

Bruce felt uncomfortable when he saw Xiao's bald head, what a bad luck!

If Cuban hadn't dragged him into this conference room to chat for a long time, he would have flashed away long ago, waiting for Stern to send someone to arrest him? !

"Let's go!"
