Chapter 275 Small Transactions

There is no shortage of dunkers in the NBA, and it is every spring player's dream to show off their skills in the dunk contest.It's a pity that with the intensification of commercialization and the epic performances of those fierce men at the beginning of the century, today's slam dunk contest has become less and less appealing.Fans want to see a different side of the slam dunk contest, even a few more superstar PK is better than finding a few unknown players.

After the Christmas game, Zheng Ke received an invitation letter from the league, hoping that he could participate in the 2010 dunk contest.

Players have the right to refuse, including James, who refuses invitations to the league's All-Star Slam Dunk Contest every year.Zheng Ke took the invitation letter and thought about it for a long time.
"To go or not to go?"

He turned to Taylor and asked the hostess for her opinion.

Taylor rolled his eyes at him, patted his face with the mask on, and said, "You can go if you want!"

Zheng Ke seemed a little hesitant, and he said what he thought in his heart: "I really want to go. But to be honest, I don't have any good dunk ideas, and I'm afraid I'll be ashamed."

"What's so difficult about it, just ask fans for their opinions on your personal website. There are so many people, so much power."

Zheng Ke's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "This is a good way."

Taylor continued to use her small brain's aura, waved her small fists and continued: "Besides, you can do more difficult moves. In recent years, the slam dunk contest has become more and more a show contest, making it more difficult. Use your graceful and Powerful and elegant style of play to win, come on, okay!"

"It makes sense!" Zheng Ke clapped his hands and smiled, he looked at Taylor with some surprise: "My baby, where did you come up with so many ghost ideas, you are so clever!"

Taylor blushed a little after being praised by him, and said, "Is there any good information on these networks? If you don't usually go online, I'll help you find out."

"So that's the case, I really thought you were enlightened." Zheng Ke teased.

"Hmph!" Taylor didn't bother to pay attention to Zheng Ke's rhetoric.

During the conversation between the two, the old-fashioned telephone with the style of the Republic of China at home remembered.Taylor couldn't agree with Zheng Ke's appreciation level, she didn't like this call for nothing.He kicked Zheng Ke with his little feet like crystal jade: "Hurry up and answer your call."

"Why is it mine? Maybe it's for you?" Zheng Ke retorted, but he stood up, stepped on his huge fluffy slippers, and walked over.

"Mosimoxi?"

The voice that Zheng Ke least wanted to hear came from the other end of the phone, the dedicated general manager Mike Hale.His slightly vicissitudes of voice were amplified to Zheng Ke's ears through the speakers.

"My dear Zheng, I'm sorry to disturb you so late, but you know, this matter is very urgent."

"It's not too late, the sun hasn't set yet. What's the matter, Kevin?"

"Ahem." McHale cleared his throat, then lowered his voice and said: "The Clippers submitted a trade request, and they are willing to send DeAndre Jordan and next year's second-round pick in exchange for Ty Lawson!!"

"What?" Zheng Ke cried out in surprise.

Immediately, he reacted and said: "Didn't the Clippers keep saying that they were training Jordan? How could they be willing to send him away? Did you make a mistake?"

"Little Jordan?" McHale on the other end of the phone was obviously taken aback, but he immediately reacted, and then explained: "The Clippers already have Blake Griffin inside."

"But he's injured, and he's a power forward."

"They've got Marcus Camby"

"But he is already old, maybe he will retire at some point."

"They already have the German Chris Kaman"

"But him." Zheng Ke racked his brains and couldn't think of anything bad about Kaman. He is in his prime and has excellent statistics. The Clippers are currently the starting center.In the end he managed to find an excuse: "Is he a glass man? I think he is easily hurt."

"You're making unreasonable words." McHale was a little angry, and then he suddenly remembered something, and he said angrily: "Hey, Zheng. Our question now is not to discuss why the Clippers are willing to send DeAndre Jordan, but what is the deal? Value assessment, Lawson's potential, to be honest, I am a little bit reluctant to trade him."

Zheng Ke was silent. He knew the team's current predicament. After Iverson came, the team's outside line was too complicated, and the height of the outside line was somewhat lowered. When encountering a lineup hosted by some tall guards, it was very difficult to play.

"If you don't say it, I'll take it as your acquiescence." McHale was still in the mood to joke, interrupting Zheng Ke's thoughts.

"Do you have to trade?" Zheng Ke was still a little bit reluctant to part with these companions who had been fighting together for a while, he subconsciously said to McHale.

"Don't joke with me, okay?" McHale's tone was a little hasty: "You know, our team has already had problems. Ty Lawson's agent told me that he needed playing time, and Kyle Lowry's agent also told me And playing time, oh my god, I've asked Randy (Whitman) to push Chauncey's playing time, don't you want to see Chauncey's agent come to me and say "Kevin, I think Chauncey needs more playing time"!"

"Also, Lowry and Lawson don't work well together. Both are players who need the ball to see their value. Do you think one of them can be a shooting guard for the team? It will Let people grasp the weak point, and then there will be a dull hammer."

McHale said a lot in one breath, putting an end to Zheng Ke's unrealistic idea.However, in his heart, he expressed dissatisfaction with McHale's behavior of selecting Ty Lawson in the draft. This guy is simply looking for trouble for himself. If he can find players according to the team's needs, how can these things happen?Choosing a player with the [-]th overall pick to play in the third team is an unrealistic idea.

Zheng Ke heard McHale say a lot, and finally reached an agreement with him before his saliva dried up.Zheng Ke agreed to McHale's everything about the Ty Lawson trade.

In the Timberwolves manager's office, McHale hung up the phone heavily.He took a sip of tea, sighed, and looked tired.He somewhat regrets that when he signed the contract with Zheng Ke, he gave him the right to participate in the team's transactions. This is completely torturing himself. Every small transaction must ask for his opinion. I am the general manager of the team. What's the point?It's not as good as Randy, who doesn't care about things, can get a high salary, and has a lot of power. With Zheng Ke, he can win a championship for fun, and entering the Hall of Fame is just around the corner.

McHale's heart was turbulent, and after making complaints, he regained his composure, opened his manager's email box, and began to deal with Ty Lawson's trade matters.

On the 27th, the Timberwolves defeated the Wizards at home.

Just after this game, the official NBA website announced a small deal between the Timberwolves and the Clippers.The Clippers sent the team's third backup center DeAndre Jordan and a second-round pick next year, and got the Timberwolves' point guard Ty Lawson who had amazing performances in recent games.

This is a very small transaction, and both parties to the transaction are very calm.The league didn't stir up any smoke, and even the fans of both sides didn't jump out and say that you made money this time, or what we made this time.Even when the deal came out, Ty Lawson was still joking with everyone in the locker room.

There was an instant silence in the locker room.

Ty Lawson was a little surprised when he heard the news, but he wasn't too excited.All his performances showed that he was actually prepared for this result.

Then Love, who loves playing the most, clapped his hands and proposed: "Let's hold a farewell party for Ty!"

This proposal was passed unanimously without a vote, and the atmosphere in the locker room suddenly became lively again.Everyone started chatting about where to go.Love, Thornton and several nightclub princes clamored to go to the nightclub to have a good time, but Zheng Ke and Billups felt that they could hold it at the player's home.Everyone couldn't come up with a unanimous opinion, and finally kicked the ball to Whitman.Coach Whitman immediately made a decision, and it was set at Chauncey's home.

Whitman's decision not only determines the location of the evening's activities, but also determines the way of activities.It's rare for everyone to come to an honest man's house, and this time they secretly agreed to "loot" Chauncey's house.When the results came, Billups' wife and his two children were terrified.I wondered where a group of barbarians came from, and swept away all the rare wine and dry food in his house.
However, there is always a banquet in the world, and after the turmoil reaches late at night, people still think of parting tomorrow.Ty Lawson's heart suddenly filled with great reluctance, as if his chest was blocked, and it was uncomfortable.

Lowry was the first to come forward, and he gave Ty Lawson a huge hug.

"Although the two of us are competitors, we have never complained about each other. Thank you for running, training, and playing games with you." Lowry said in Lawson's ear.

"Me too. I hope we will be the starting point guards of our respective teams next time we play against each other." When we really parted, Lawson felt the reluctance hidden deep in his heart.

"Your talent is as vast as the sky. I hope to see the day you become an All-Star." Zheng Ke opened his arms and hugged the somewhat "thin" Ty Lawson.

"Go to Los Angeles and work hard, don't embarrass me." Lawson's "predecessor" Billups laughed.

"Work hard, you still have a lot of potential, if you tap it out, you will be an All-Star at least." Whitman encouraged Lawson with a hug.

"come on. "

"come on. "
