NBA: Teaming up with Thompson, the template for Atsushi Zihara

After returning to the home court to play the Charlotte Hornets, Nash and Iguodala, who started the game in this game, combined their swords and scored 50 points.
In addition, the UAE also got a double-double in the interior, and finally won the game with a 2-point advantage.

Next, in one go, facing the underdogs in the West, the Los Angeles Clippers, Courtney Lee unexpectedly showed off in this game,

With the trust of the head coach and a lot of playing time, he hit 8 three-pointers and scored a career-high 33 points.
Help the team get two consecutive victories.

At the same time on the defensive end, Courtney Lee also made a good contribution, sending 3 steals.

In this way, in the 6 games that Qin Chong was absent, the Nets had 2 wins and 4 losses.
In the first 10 games at the beginning of the new season, they achieved a record of 6 wins and 4 losses, ranking fifth in the Eastern Conference.

So far the results are pretty good.

During the period of truce, Qin Chong, in addition to filming some commercial endorsements, also participated in his girlfriend Taylor Swift's concert in New York,
At the same time, he and his agent Su Jinmai went to Maryland to attend the high-level meeting of Under Armour.

Although during the suspension period, he couldn't even enter the arena,
But Qin Chong still insisted on training every day, and insisted on burning the calories in his body.

This kind of self-discipline in training has also been exaggerated by the relevant media, which perfectly established Qin Chong's dual personality of genius and inspiration.

Other than that,

Qin Chong also participated in the meeting of the Nets management, and expressed his personal opinion on the team's lineup this season.

Qin Chong's opinion is roughly the same as that of general manager Vandeweghe, that is, point guard Nash, center Qin Chong, and power forward Arab League. These three starting positions are relatively stable.

But the two positions of shooting guard and starting small forward still need reinforcement.

Although Courtney Lee has improved significantly compared to last season, for a team aspiring to compete for the championship, such a starting shooting guard is still a bit worse.

Moreover, Courtney Lee's physical fitness is average, and he even has a slight glass man attribute.
So let Courtney Lee play gorgeous data during Qin Chong's absence, increase his transaction value, and exchange for more reliable front-line players or 3D,

It has become the most urgent problem for the Nets management now.

Then there is the small forward position, Iguodala has a very good performance on the bench, so the management's opinion is that it is better for him to stay on the bench.

The starting small forward Bill Walton, in comparison, is even more hip. In the new season, he averaged 6.2 points and 4.1 rebounds per game. His performance is really lackluster.

The competitiveness of the overall lineup on the bench is already considerable. After all, Yige and Luwei are two starting-level quasi-stars.

So now the Nets most need trade reinforcements, which are the two positions of shooting guard and small forward.

Once reliable players can be traded, then after Qin Chong returns,
The overall strength of the New Jersey Nets definitely has the hope of competing for the championship.

As for the target players for the trade, general manager Vandeweghe and other members of the management have different views.

But Qin Chong said a name on the shooting guard that shocked the rest of the management.

That is James Harden.

There was an uproar in the meeting room, and many executives looked at each other in blank dismay.

Trying to trade for James Harden?

It's the bearded man who is still lying in the ICU ward and doesn't know when he will recover?
Everyone questioned Qin Chong's idea.

Although James Harden has good talent, he was also a third pick in 09, and his performance in the first two seasons of the Thunder was also remarkable.

But the strength is still limited, not reaching the All-Star level,

Besides, James Harden was seriously injured by Qin Chong's elbow this time, and he doesn't know when he will recover.
After recovering, I don't know what level and level of strength can be maintained.

If Harden is traded with Courtney Lee and Bill Walton before Harden recovers,

Not to mention that the Thunder is unwilling, even if they are willing, the Nets may not be able to benefit much.

It is even possible to suffer from being dumb.

Faced with everyone's doubts, Qin Chong just smiled and didn't try to explain anything.

As a time traveler, he naturally knows that Harden, who returns from injury, will fully display his worth at the MVP level.

Just like the protagonist in kung fu, a set of combos to explode the hammer Huoyun evil god.

In the next game of the Nets, head coach Mike D'Antoni followed the instructions of the management,

Directly gave Courtney Lee unlimited fire rights, allowing Nash and Iguodala to pass the ball to Courtney Lee as much as possible to help him generate good statistics.

In an away game against the Wizards, Courtney Lee scored 32 points again, but the team lost.

Back at home to play the Minnesota Timberwolves, facing a lax defense,

Under the slant of tactics, Courtney Lee completely released himself and made 29 crazy shots in the audience.

18 of 10 three-pointers, two points plus free throws, crazy scoring 48 points,
And hit a quasi-lore three-pointer 10.2 seconds before the end of the game, helping the team win the victory,
This game allowed Courtney Lee to fully demonstrate his personal worth, and even appeared in the nominations for the Eastern Conference Player of the Week.

And outside the game,

The Nets management is also starting to secretly discuss with the Thunder management about the deal of Courtney Lee and James Harden...

Oklahoma, Thunder general manager's office.

The general manager of the Thunder, John Pittman, looked dignified. After some bargaining, he told the general manager of the Nets, Vandeweghe, his bottom line:

"It's okay if you don't want to give Louis Williams, so how about Courtney Liga Humphries and another pick for next year?"

"Mr. Vandeweghe, this is Thunder's final bottom line!"

After a moment of silence, Vandeweghe's hearty voice came from the other end:
"OK, no problem, but I ask you to add Jeff Green in addition to James Harden, how about it?"

"You still want Jeff Green? There is no door!"

"Snapped!"

The furious Thunder general manager John Pittman hung up the phone directly.

On the other end of the phone, Kiki Vanderweghe, who was sitting in the office, was smiling, leaning on the sofa chair,
Picking up a glass of vodka on the desk and taking a sip, he seemed to be planning a strategy and winning a thousand miles.

Vandeweghe naturally knew that it was impossible for the Thunder to send James Harden and Jeff Green at the same time.

This is just a trial in the process of trading.

In fact, Courtney Lee and Chris Humphries are already pretty good bargaining chips,

After all, Courtney Lee is growing rapidly, and his 3D attributes are becoming more and more obvious.

And Chris Humphries is a player who averaged a double-double per game. Playing as a substitute for the Nets already seems a bit overqualified.

The Thunder are eager to strengthen the inside line, so Humphries only changed Jeff Green, and the Thunder can't lose too much.
