The Rest, Only Noise

Chapter 786: new york jay

The latest website: Want to get Billy Owens team, at first only the Warriors, the Timberwolves, and then, now joined the Celtics and the Heat.

From a macro perspective, all but the Knicks want Owens, but these are the only four that have been aggressive in trades.

The Timberwolves have Kenny Anderson, but Jerry Krause is not optimistic about his prospects.

He is a genius defender, but unfortunately there is a problem with his birth point.

Talented guards who debut in New York tend to have everything but no brains.

He was unwilling to make him pay a huge price for Owens. Owens' ceiling is indeed tempting, but there are doubts about whether he can play in the NBA.

For Krause, Anderson is not for sale. If someone can come up with an All-Star-level wing, he is willing to change it.

The Warriors' bid is still Mitch Richmond for a single trade.

The Kings want more power players or draft picks.

They need to strengthen, if they don't improve the competitiveness of the team, they may have to work for the Knicks in a few years.

Thanks to the great Bill Russell, he gave the Knicks two unprotected first-round picks for Tisdale.

The ultimate winner in the 1960s was the ultimate loser in the late 1980s. In order to get rid of the fate of working for the Knicks, the King chose Owens and hoped that he would be a blockbuster.

Unexpectedly, Owens did not want to settle in Sacramento.

Now only Owens, the biggest lottery ticket, can be used to increase the strength.

The Celtics originally had a suspicious attitude towards Owens, but in Auerbach they asked their friend Coach K, and Louis seemed to disdain Owens on the surface, but secretly launched a fiery pursuit of the King, which made Kyle. The special people are convinced that this is a future super giant that is destined to play.

The Celtics' offer came up with the right to sign Steve Smith and Doug Smith.

These two people are this year's No. 5 show and No. 11 show. Among them, Doug Smith was originally a prospect in the top six, but was affected by a word from Louis.

The Celtics' offer, if they negotiate deals with other teams, are estimated to be able to return for an All-Star.

But the King was not tempted, there was uncertainty in the rookies, and neither of the two Celtics Smiths were players like Owens who were sure to play.

They can even reject Richmond, who has already played, and it is natural to reject two risky lottery tickets.

Before the Heat entered the game, they made a deal with the Knicks.

It's a confusing deal.

It can be said that there is no need to make people suspect that there are fraudulent transactions.

The Knicks sent their second-year star Doug West, who played well last season, and their own first-round pick in 1993 to Miami in exchange for the rights to Vernon Maxwell and Tony Kukoc.

The problem with this deal is that neither the Knicks nor the Heat have the need to do it.

Sending West away also left the Knicks without a potential flank that was on the rise.

Last season, the second-year West was on the rotation for the talented Knicks and was a member of the murder press team.

Being able to join the Murder Press team shows that it is one of the team's long-term plans. Suddenly trading him and sending him to the first round is not Louie's style.

Unless Kukoc performs well in the NBA in the future, this deal will be a loss.

What is Louis thinking after making two losing trades in a row?

At this time, even the media in New York didn't have time to pay attention to Louie's strange operation, and they all focused on Billy Owens' bidding war.

The Timberwolves, Warriors, and Celtics all felt that their bids were big enough and refused to increase their bids.

At this point, it was the Heat's turn.

As soon as the Heat came up, it was Doug West, Grant Long, B.J. Armstrong + the first round in 1996.

The Heat's offer, taken alone, is no better than other teams.

But together, it's exciting.

West can enter the rotation in the Knicks' extreme involution environment, which is enough to prove his strength. Lang averaged 9 points and 8 rebounds per game as a substitute for Hank Gaithers. He is a high-quality power forward. Only Armstrong looks average, but there is still a first round. Although the Heat's first round in 1996 may not be so precious, these things together are what the king wants most.

"Coach Lu, are we going to increase the price now?"

He was the only one in Louie's office.

He was on the phone with Heat godfather Lewis Shafir.

"Don't worry, be patient, Lewis." Louis smiled lightly, "You can't eat Billy Owens in a hurry."

"I'll listen to you, Coach Lu."

For the next two days, the teams did not increase their offers.

After Billy Owens learned of this situation, he directly vented through his agent: "If the deal is not reached within three days, I will give up landing in the NBA and go to Europe to play."

In less than a month, Billy Owens was the most hated player in Kings history.

Most teams just want to take advantage. After Owens issued this attitude, he has made it clear that "anyone can as long as it is not the Kings" attitude.

After all, if he goes to Europe, his future will be ruined.

Just a day after Owens' statement, both the Warriors and the Timberwolves made final bids for additional draft picks.

The Kings were hesitating which team to accept, and the Celtics came again.

They traded Reggie Lewis like crazy and took out Steve Smith for Billy Owens with the No.

Such reckless risk-taking is by no means Auerbach's style.

Perhaps it was the reason why Louie showed interest in Owens that drove them to make this decision. They believed that Owens' future was limitless, and it was worth paying any price for an SSS-level supergiant in the future.

This may be the most rewarding day of Billy Owens' life.

Just as the Kings were leaning toward closing the deal with the Celtics, Louie had Shafir pull out all his chips by remote control.

The Heat added last year's No. 5 pick Kendall Gill and a 1993 first-rounder from the Knicks to Doug West, Grant Long, B.J. Armstrong, and the 1996 first-rounder.

This bid is a lore.

Gill averaged 14 points per game in his rookie season, and if it weren't for the Heat's two or three positions with Petrovic and Willie Anderson, he could have started. Even off the bench, his defense and passion brought amazing energy to the team.

He is a proven future star.

Before the Heat, the biggest problem was that there were no stars. Now, there are stars, potential stocks, and draft picks. The King has no reason to refuse.

On July 15, the Kings sent the rights to Billy Owens to Miami in exchange for Doug West, Grant Long, B.J. Armstrong, Kendall Gill, 1992 first-rounder and from the Knicks 1993 first round.

Seeing that, the hottest bidding war of the summer is over.

And this was the beginning of Louis' revenge against the Celtics.

"Coach Lu, we finally got Owens... Are we really going to give him to the Celtics?"

Louie said plainly: "This is a parallel import. When the new season starts, Owens will be worthless. You have to think about how much you paid to get him. If you paid that much in exchange for a Parallel imports, can you stay in Miami?"

"Just in case..."

"There is no case."

"I see."

Dave Gavitt regretted not getting Billy Owens. He was about to pack up and sign some useful players in the free market. Unexpectedly, the Heat, who had just won the super award, came to him and wanted to get it. Owens for Steve Smith and Reggie Lewis.

Although the joy of being lost and found is shrouded in the question of "Why is Miami going around such a big circle, isn't it bad to directly initiate a three-party transaction?"

But the incident happened suddenly, and Gavitt didn't think so much.

In the eyes of most of the clubs involved in the transaction, Owens is a sure option.

Even Shafir thinks he'll be an All-Star when he enters the league, and if he can fulfill his potential, he'll be the next superstar.

To trade this super lottery, Shafir himself has to bear a lot of pressure.

Shafir chose to push the deal through for one reason, and he believed that Louie would not harm him.

This tacit understanding and trust is cultivated over several years.

Louie wouldn't hurt him at the time, and he won't hurt him now, and Shafir doesn't even know what the real purpose of these deals is, to send Owens to the Celtics? Also said Owens is a parallel importer? Could it be... Coach Lu is going to attack the Celtics?

Just as Shafir was negotiating with Garvet, he thought so much.

After a day of consultations, the two sides completed the whole process efficiently.

The Heat sent the rights to Billy Owens to Boston in exchange for the rights to Reggie Lewis and Steve Smith.

It looks like everyone is happy.

The Celtics got a replacement for Bird, the Kings had the best lineup on paper since the 1980s, the Heat traded away a No. 5 pick and got another No. 5 and would-be All-Star Reggie Lewis, and Shafir did exactly what Louis had given him.

Lewis also has heart problems. Louis asked Shafir to conduct a comprehensive examination of Lewis's body~www.novelmt.com~ He should find the doctor who looked at Hank Gaithers' heart to see him, insist on taking medicine, and control his appearance. Timing and training intensity, but also the distribution of the ball between Steve Smith and Petrovic. And build the team with Gaithers, Petrovic, Lewis, Smith as the main team.

"Coach Lu, why are you doing so much?" Shafir asked curiously.

"To send a message to some people." Louie held the phone, a bottle of Coke in his hand, and watched the amazing deal between the Celtics and the Heat that kept replaying on the TV. "Calculate me, but there is a price to pay."

"Ahaha, stop joking, Coach Lu." Shafir laughed, "With Jerry Krause's lesson learned, who would dare to plot against you after eating a leopard?"

Louis kept smiling and didn't answer.

He also wondered what a rough mental journey Dave Gavitt had gone through before he thought of plotting against him?

Does he think that Coach Lu's nickname is New York's Little Jairie for a vain name?
