NBA Dynasty Sniper

At 10 am on the 12th, the Knicks officially announced that the Oakley contract has ended and will choose to enter the free market.

Veteran Buck Williams has ended his contract and announced his retirement.

At the same time, Alan Houston and John Starks, whose contract has not yet ended, applied for a deal and put them on the shelves themselves.

In addition, Larry Johnson, who did not want to leave, as well as Charlie Ward and Chris Childs, were put on the shelves by the management.

In addition to Oakley's free departure, the old Buck retired, five of the Knicks championship lineup were on the shelves, and a total of seven people are leaving, which symbolizes the Knicks will be purged.

However, the Knicks did not become a player's supermarket, because these five people on the shelves, the transaction value is not very large, can not trigger a frenzy of other teams.

On this day, the most popular one was the Jazz. The Knicks were robbed of the limelight by the Jazz. Because the Jazz announced the reconstruction, the black and white Shuangsha were put on the shelves at the same time.

This news quickly spread throughout the alliance, causing shock.

Adi and Reebok both have headaches, because the Jazz publicized the rebuilding issue so early, and the trade of Malone to the Lakers will encounter a lot of resistance. There will definitely be teams competing with the Lakers for the postman, which means that they are very likely. Need to pay a greater price.

But they also have no ability to prevent the Jazz from making the matter public, so they can only respond passively.

In Salt Lake City, John Stockton was shocked. The team put him on the shelf without notifying him?

This was a big blow to him. He was ready for the end of the old Jazz. Now, he has been betrayed by the team.

"why?"

Frustrated, he called General Manager Ham.

"John, please be considerate of the team's difficulties. If the postman wants to leave, this team must be rebuilt, and we need to rebuild the bargaining chips. You don't want this team to be completely finished, do you?" Ham said.

"What if I choose to retire?" John Stockton said coldly.

Ham took a breath. If that were the case, the Jazz would encounter great difficulties. He forced himself to calm down and sighed: "John, you can choose to retaliate against the team. I won't blame you, nor will the Jazz fans. I will blame you. I'm sorry, but the team is sorry for you."

"..."

John Stockton sighed in his heart and hung up.

He definitely doesn't want to see the team that has played for 14 seasons lose hope of rebuilding, so he would be sorry for the fans who supported him.

The Knicks, after Nell Grant learned the news of the Jazz, immediately became excited.

He has been dissatisfied with the point guard position.

Although Zhao Dong can play a point guard, his favorite is offense. The team still needs an orthodox point guard.

Billups is far from growing up, but next season is a crucial season for the defending dynasty, so he hopes to trade a capable one.

This position is very important. Trading Stockton will inevitably take away a lot of the ball rights from Flying Dragon, and he will definitely need his approval.

"Flying dragon, we want to trade John Stockton, what do you think?" He immediately made a call.

"You decide." Zhao Dong had no objection.

But he felt that this transaction could not be successful. The Jazz is the Knicks' mortal enemy. How could it be possible to trade Stockton to New York?

Sure enough, only ten minutes later, Grant called and told him in a very disappointing tone that the Jazz directly rejected the deal.

Knicks headquarters, old Nelson and the coaching staff have no time to go on vacation, the team is almost rebuilt, they are considered the busiest people.

They must first determine the type of team next season, and then trade and reinforce accordingly.

Of course the old Nelson has been thinking about this issue, he already has an idea in his mind, and now it's just a final decision.

Outside shooter, precise shooting, good mobility, and good outside defense.

For such a pitcher, Zhao Dong attracts double-teams in the low post, or after rushing in to compress the opponent's defense, he gets a lot of open opportunities. He doesn't need the ball, but he adapts to many tactics.

Inside, Big Ben develops well and is the main center to be determined next season, but he needs to be equipped with a partner who can pull apart.

This kind of inside combination can have a certain degree of basket protection and rebounding ability, and it can also open the opponent's inside defense, so that the outside has a lot of room for breakthroughs.

Danny Fordson actually meets this requirement. He just needs to strengthen his shooting ability, but he still needs to prepare for the second hand. What if Fordson can't play it?

Of course, there is really no way, the inside combination of Big Ben and Fordson can also make do.

Outside, there is now a good guy who is easy to get. This is the madman who has been suspended for the entire season by the Warriors.

Grant was about to contact the Warriors. Suddenly his phone number remembered. After the call was connected, it happened that the Warriors called.

"Nair, give me Alan Houston and John Starks, and I give you a madman."

"John Starks is okay. Alan Houston can't. Madman is not worth that much."

Finally, because the Warriors belonged to the sale madman, the lock-throat incident caused the madman to have no team willing to ask him, so he quickly reached the trade, Starks and Crisschild, the trade madman.

Of course, this is just a negotiation. The official transaction requires the opening of the transaction window after the draft.

"Latril, you are going to the Knicks next season. The deal has been negotiated."

"Knicks? Flying Dragon?"

"Yes, Wyvern's team. Listen, Rattle, go to the Knicks, don't mess around, if you offend Wyvern, it's over."

The madman ended the call with his agent, a little at a loss.

After the lock-throat incident, he was suspended, and has lost six million dollars in wages until now.

Going to the Knicks next season, he doesn't know what he will face. What if he provokes the violent Feilong? Will you be beaten to death?

At this time, with the support of Adi and Reebok, the Lakers are leading a multi-party transaction.

In order to get the postman Malone, and to help Kobe in the upper position, Jerry West decided to use the All-Star shooting guard Eddie Jones as the core trading bargaining chip.

The Jazz's bargaining chip is at least two lottery picks.

The Lakers don't have one, so more deals are needed.

Then Jerry West's phone rang.

"Shaq, aren't you on vacation in Miami?"

"Yes, I'm on the beach. Jerry, don't you want to say something to me?"

"Haha, Shaq, I'm getting a good helper for you. He has at least two or three years of peak time."

"Yes, yes, my agent heard about this. It's a good idea, but Jerry, can we have room for a postman?"

"Yes, I can't tolerate it, but Adi will support us. The postman will join with the veteran's basic salary. This is what we have already negotiated."

"Oh, this is crazy, haha!"

O'Neillton danced while lying on the beach chair, and then with a clatter, the chair fell over and was embarrassed.

"Attention, Shaq, never reveal it."

"OKOK..."

O'Neill repeatedly agreed, but then whispered: "Jerry, I have one thing I need to talk to you about, that guy Nick..."

...

On the 18th, Vince Carter came to the New York Flying Dragon Sports Company and officially signed the contract.

Zhao Dong and Lindsay participated in the signing ceremony.

At the same time, there are still big ones.

Zhao Dong gave as much as a shoe contract, the same as Hu Weidong's.

"boss."

When he saw Zhao Dong, Carter greeted him quickly.

"You don't need to call me that in the league, where I have only one identity, player. You can call me Zhao Dong, or Feilong." Zhao Dong smiled.

"Okay, boss." Carter laughed.

"Shoes, are you satisfied?" Zhao Dong pointed to the sneakers on Carter's feet.

"Awesome, I am very satisfied, it is the coolest shoe I have ever seen." Carter said excitedly.

"How is the performance?" Zhao Dong asked with a smile.

Carter immediately said with excitement: "It allows me to jump higher, the cushioning performance of landing is super good, it can better protect my ankles. Other properties are also very good, such as grip, it can save me Slip and start faster..."

"I'm glad you like it."

The super contract of tens of millions of dollars immediately made Vince Carter's reputation rise to the top.

On the 24th, draft day.

Zhao Dong took Dazhi and Wells to Madison Square Garden to watch the excitement.

He asked Wells to sign Dazhi instead of asking Dazhi to find some unreliable agents.

There are still a lot of good products this year, such as Al Harrington, Rashard Lewis, Alstom, Mobley, etc. These people have fallen to the end of the first round and the second round. The Knicks have a chance to select them. of.

However, Grant has promised him to use the end of the first round to sign up to the end, and only one end of the second round is left, which is of little value, so this year's draft, the Knicks are not as good as last year.

He went to the green house in front and turned around, and saw Vince Carter, Pierce, Dirk Nowitzki, the white devil Mike Bibby, White Chocolate, Larry Hughes, these guys who would become famous in the future.

"Vince, give you a suggestion to protect yourself from now on."

When he came to Carter, he said seriously: "You are a player flying in the air. Before landing, be careful that there are other people's feet waiting for you underneath."

"..." Carter was startled.

"From now on in training, develop a habit of spreading your feet when you land." Zhao Dong said again.

"OK, I will do it, thank you, boss." Carter said gratefully.

"Hello, rookies."

Zhao Dong said hello to the other rookies in the green house.

Some of them are also signed players of Flying Dragon Sports, such as White Chocolate and Mike Bibby.

"Flying dragon, hello."

"Feilong, it's great to meet you, I am your fan."

"Feilong, I am a fan of the Silver Devil."

"Good day, boss."

The rookies stood up one after another, yelling.

Haha, Zhao Dong smiled and said: "Well, you are so enthusiastic. When I meet you next season, I won't be able to teach you anymore."

"..."

As soon as the rookies stayed, they immediately remembered what Zhao Dong coach Tim Duncan looked like this season.

The top three in this year's lottery show are the Clippers, Grizzlies, and Nuggets.

After leaving the green house, Zhao Dong took a few steps and ran into Jordan and Phil Jackson.

"Are you still signed?" Zhao Dong asked in surprise.

"Of course there is."

Jordan said coldly: "You don't need to care about this."

"Whose lottery did you sell?" Zhao Dong asked curiously.

"What does it matter to you?" Jordan said in an angry manner.

Next, the Clippers selected center Michael Olowokandy with the No. 1 pick, the Grizzlies selected Mike Bibby with the second pick, and the Nuggets selected Reeve Lafranz with a pick.

The Raptors selected Antoine Jamison in fourth place, and the Warriors selected Vince Carter in fifth place.

The two teams then exchanged, and Jamison and Carter exchanged clubs before their hats were hot.

In fact, this is because the Raptors knew that the Warriors wanted to pick Jamison, so they cut off Jamison. In the transaction, the Warriors also put up some cash in order to get Jamison.

Da Zhi sits steadily next to Zhao Dong, waiting for his first round of the 29th pick.

At this time it was the turn of the No. 27 pick, and Phil Jackson handed the envelope.

This pick was exchanged for two role players. Their original No. 24 pick was used to trade Ewing.

"The Bulls selected..."

Stern read this, raised his head and looked at Phil Jackson and the Bulls side, then looked at the Knicks side, and then continued reading: "Wang Zhizhi from China."

"Yeah!"

At this time, in China, Dazhi's home, as well as his friends and teammates, began to cheer.

"Grass!"

Zhao Dong burst into foul language.

"..."

It's so stunned.

"Brother Dong?"

He looked at Zhao Dong blankly.

Over there, Jordan looked over here, with a smug expression on his face.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's not bad to go to the Bulls. They are basically rebuilding. With your ability, you might be able to start."

Zhao Dong analyzed it, and then exhorted: "It's your psychological quality. Jordan is a very harsh person to his teammates. You must be psychologically prepared."

Dazhi nodded, after all, after playing professional leagues for two years, he is no longer a rookie, and his heart gradually settled down.

"Go up first."

At this time Stern said Dazhi's name again, and Zhao Dong quickly pushed Dazhi.

"Welcome, Wang, I hope you have a happy career in the NBA." Stern smiled.

"Thank you, Mr. Stern." Dazhi said in English.

"Damn it, who do we choose?"

But the bull's cut-off caught Grant by surprise, because he had to choose Dazhi, so he didn't have much preparation at all.

It's not completely unprepared, the Knicks' scouting system is still possible, but I don't know who to choose for a while.

"Nair, let me give you some names. I think they are good." Zhao Dong said when Grant and Nelson discussed the draft goals.

"OK, Feilong, the Hu and Ben Wallace you recommend are good, you can talk about it." Grand Featured headed.

Zhao Dong talked about the names that fell to the end of the second round and the end of the first round. Grant considered it a bit and decided to choose Catino Mobley, because the team basically has to go outside and needs a lot of outside lines.

In this way, Mobley, who had fallen to 12th in the second round, was selected 29th in the first round.

After the draft, Zhao Dong blocked the way of Jordan and Phil Jackson.

"What do you want to do?" Jordan said dissatisfiedly.

"Say, why did you choose my person?" Zhao Dong said uncomfortably.

"Flying dragon, who to choose, this is our right." Phil Jackson smiled.

"I know this. But what I want to know is, what do you think of him? He hasn't participated in any training camps, let alone go to the Bulls to try out."

Zhao Dong was unhappy and authentic.

Phil Jackson smiled and said, "Flying Dragon, if you want to get the king back, it's not impossible."

"damn it!"

Zhao Dong was really angry, bastard, it turned out that the Bulls chose Dazhi as a bargaining chip, not really wanting Dazhi.

"Mr. Jackson..."

Grant walked up and said coldly, "Who do you want? Danny Fordson?"

"Yes."

Phil Jackson nodded without hesitation.

Grant and Zhao Dong glanced at each other, feeling that things were difficult to handle.

"Flying dragon, let's go first." Grant said.

Zhao Dong nodded, took the hat as big as the bull in his hand before leaving, and threw it to Jordan.

After two steps, he stopped and pointed at Phil Jackson, and said: "Coach Jackson, Danny Fordson, don't think about it. Neither I nor the Knicks will accept such a nearly blackmailed deal."

After speaking, he strode away.

Phil Jackson and Jordan looked at each other. Several media reporters came over at this moment, and they had no choice but to say anything, and suddenly left.

After leaving Madison Square Garden and getting in the car, Phil Jackson said: "Michael, if the Knicks don't agree, Wang can also use it. The first round of the 27th pick is not a loss."

Jordan nodded and said: "I hope he can help us on the bench."

The reason why the two chose Dazhi was that during the finals, Zhao Dong had always brought Dazhi Dazhi by his side. Dazhi knew that Dazhi also performed well in the Atlanta Olympics, so they investigated Dazhi. The information, this is the plan.

After Zhao Dong left the scene, several people discussed the change.

The old Nelson feels good about Dazhi. He likes this kind of inside line that can be pulled out and shot. It is a pity: "If Wang enters our lineup, there will be more tactical changes. The Bulls can do an annoying thing. "

Dazhi's mood was a little uneasy. Zhao Dong saw it and said, "It's okay. Even if you go to the Bulls, you can play with your current strength. The current Bulls, like the Knicks, are basically rebuilding. Chance."

"I understand, Brother Dong." Da Zhidao.

Zhao Dong thought for a while and then said, "Stay there for a while, it won't work. If you apply for a deal, they won't be able to force you to stay."

"Don't worry, Brother Dong, I can adapt." Da Zhidao.

Zhao Dong nodded.

This life is indeed different from the previous one. My strength has improved a bit. I have adapted to the NBA training and confrontation in advance. I heard that there is no major problem with English. It should be possible to get a chance to play with the Bulls.

After the draft, Zhao Dong had nothing to do with the United States, and he was ready to return to China.

"Flying dragon, are you going to participate in the World Championships?" Wells asked when seeing off.

"Yes."

"Oh, there is a question. If the league is really shut down, it is likely that players will not be allowed to play international games. Have you considered it?" Wells asked.

Zhao Dong was stunned, that this might indeed exist.

The league is suspended. If there is a contract, then this contract will disappear during the suspension period. Players are not restricted and can play wherever they want.

But in fact, the players are on the weak side and the league does not allow them. If the players insist on playing, the result may be very unfavorable to the players.

In fact, there was no NBA player participating in the US team at this World Championships. On the surface, the players refused. In fact, the league did not allow them. In order not to offend the league, the players had to choose not to participate.

"Linger, once the alliance is suspended, you immediately send me a statement announcing my retirement." Zhao Dong smiled.

"Uh, okay, okay."

Wells nodded helplessly.

Afterwards, Zhao Dong and Lindsay returned to China, staying in the United States temporarily, and went to Chicago with Wells to discuss the contract.

After returning to Beijing and staying at home for two days, Zhao Dong and Lindsay went to the Feilong Sports Company.

"Dong Zhao, President Lin, some executives used to push to go public in the United States. Now this voice is getting louder and louder. Almost all executives agree to go public in the United States."

Coming to the top floor of the Feilong Building, which is the first floor exclusively owned by Zhao Dong and Lindsay, the general manager Chen Jian began to report, and the listing was the focus.

"What's your opinion?" Zhao Dong asked.

From these words of Chen Jian, he heard a question. It is no longer in the consideration of executives whether to go public or not. The company must be listed. The question is where to go public?

Hehe, these executives really don't think of themselves as outsiders.

Chen Jian obviously considered this issue a lot, and he immediately said: "The company's sales are very good now whether it is in China, or in Asia and the United States.

The domestic market basically occupies all of the basketball shoe market, Asia also has 50% of the market is ours, North America we accounted for 25%. The worst is Europe, which is not so good now, where is the football market.

Our operating funds are also sufficient, and the demand for listing is not great. The only thing to consider is the wishes of the executives. "

"I ask your opinion."

Seeing that Chen Jian said for a long time and didn't answer his question, Zhao Dong asked again.

Chen Jian smiled awkwardly, and said: "I support going to the US to go public."

"Your reason?" Zhao Dong asked.

"Maximize the benefits."

Chen Jiandao: "The domestic secondary capital market is far from mature. If we are listed there, we can..."

"What I am asking is your reason for supporting listing? Is it just the willingness of those executives to go public? What about your personal wishes?"

Zhao Dong frowned and asked.

Chen Jian hurriedly said: "In just one year, the company has developed so well. I think entering the secondary capital market is a smooth task and a step that must be taken. In addition, an international company can only be listed on a very open capital market. , Is the most correct behavior. Of course, I personally also support listing behavior."

Zhao Dong nodded ~www.novelmt.com~ He understood Chen Jian's attitude.

In fact, he is not very opposed to listing in the United States. After all, this is only a sports brand, not a technology company.

However, if the company is listed in the United States, it will definitely be interfered by capital in the future, which he does not want to see.

Moreover, he has no shortage of operating funds, and there is no urgency to go public at all.

He and Lindsay have already discussed that the company will not proceed with a listing plan for the time being, and the promotion of dividend-sharing equity incentive system at the senior management level will not be implemented within three years, and will be discussed after three years.

The company has only been in a year and didn't do anything. It relied on his influence and Silver Devils to develop. These executives were thinking about equity and thinking too much.

At present, there is no equity incentive system in China. The reason why these executives are inciting this matter must be promoted by someone behind them, and it is even more impossible for them to do what they want.

In the future, even if the equity reward system is implemented, they will not be eligible until they have achieved results. Otherwise, why should they be given dividends?
