Travel back to be a superstar

Chapter 42 The NBA has it, it's just a transaction

After a while, Jiang Dashan waited until O'Neill, Lao Li and his wife had rested, and Lina, as Jiang Dashan's girlfriend and assistant, also participated in the discussion. The meeting of the three began at Jiang Dashan's home.

"Shaq, what's the matter with you coming here so late?" Jiang Dashan motioned Lina to bring O'Neill a cup of coffee. "Thank you, Lina. You are so beautiful. Every time J mentions you, he always looks excited." O'Neal complimented Lina, and Lina smiled shyly. "Great O'Neill, Jiang Dashan's manager, he came so late, isn't it just to compliment me?"

"Of course not," O'Neill took a sip of coffee, "J, you know that the Cavaliers want to defend their title this year." "Well, I know," Jiang Dashan looked at O'Neill with a puzzled face, "Of course I know." "Okay, first I want to apologize to you." "What do you mean?" Jiang Dashan suddenly had an ominous premonition. "The last time you told me that you wanted to start was when Irving was injured." "I knew something was wrong. Jones said what he heard on the plane today." O'Neill looked at Jiang Dashan apologetically, "What do you know?" "Jones said that the management may be dissatisfied with me and think I am the source of disunity within the team. The last time you directly reported to Griffin that I wanted to start may be the reason for the management's idea. Is it related to this?" "Yes, it can be said that I caused it alone." O'Neill sighed. With a sigh of relief, "It's my fault, J, I'm a bit overwhelmed. You look at this." O'Neill took out a dozen newspapers and looked at them.

Jiang Dashan glanced at the newspaper, almost all of which were written about Jiang Dashan's pressure on the Cavaliers' management to replace Irving's position, and agreed that Jiang Dashan's lack of ability and excessive ambition affected the internal unity of the Cavaliers. If Jiang Dashan is still in the Cavaliers, it may affect the Cavaliers' record today.

"How could they do this!" Jiang Dashan angrily threw down the newspaper and slapped it on the coffee table. "None of this is true! I'm looking for the manager of the Cavaliers."

"No, no, J, you can't find anyone now." O'Neill stopped Jiang Dashan from calling, "Listen to me, J, this is the NBA. The NBA is just a transaction, just like the Lakers gave up on me in order to be able."

"I don't blame the Lakers, because I know, it's all just a deal. They give up on you, just because you are not good enough, so good that they can give up everything for you."

Jiang Dashan's eyes dimmed, "Am I not good enough?"

"No, you are excellent." O'Neill looked at Jiang Dashan, "J, listen to me, first of all, you are excellent enough, but they don't know it yet, because you don't have time to prove it."

"Well, I admit, I won't give up because of this." Jiang Dashan sighed, with his psychological endurance of 81 time travels, this little thing is nothing to worry about.

"Secondly, it's just a deal, so we need the best." "Yeah"

"Now let's talk about this." O'Neal drank the coffee. "First of all, the Cavaliers' goal this year is to defend the title, and the Warriors got Durant. The Cavaliers only have you."

"Well, it is absolutely impossible for me to change Durant alone now. Durant's value and ability are indeed incomparable."

"The Cavaliers are currently weak inside and need reinforcements, but there are too many outside shooters."

"I know this, and I have thought many times that the Cavaliers should strengthen the inside."

"So this time, the top management of the Cavaliers decided to trade for insiders." O'Neill looked at Jiang Dashan, "Are you listening carefully?"

"Yes, I'm listening." Jiang Dashan propped his forehead with his hands helplessly, leaning against the armrest of the sofa.

"I have contacted the manager of the Cavaliers many times, Griffin. He thinks that the conflict between you and Irving is deep, and now the Cavaliers need reinforcements. Kicking you out can stabilize Irving's mood. After all, Irving and James also had a quarrel. This can well ease the internal conflicts of the Cavaliers and make room for signing one or two big players."

"Well, I can understand. No wonder Owen has shown disdain when he sees me recently."

"He should have known that the Cavaliers were going to cut you."

"Well. Anyone else? Who are they going to sign?"

"Liggins may be released, and Anderson. Bogut is in the signing range. They are still looking for an experienced vacancy, which may be Williams~"

"This is really ironic. Am I a better choice than Williams? Williams has already passed his prime, and now he may not be able to tell where the basket is when he is on the court."

"Who says no, but the point is, we exposed our ambition too early, sorry, J. I wanted to win more chips for you."

"Forget it, Shaq. Where's next?"

"nothing now."

Jiang Dashan glanced at O'Neill in disbelief, then looked at Lina with a wry smile, "Am I so worthless?" Lina came over and kissed Jiang Dashan, "Don't be discouraged, Dashan, it will be fine, if not, let's go to CBA first."

"Wait for a while, let's wait until a week. If there is no offer, you can contact the CBA team. I can't play without the ball, right?" Jiang Dashan laughed at himself, "I thought I could lead the Cavaliers to sweep everything. Unexpectedly, I was swept out by the Cavaliers first."

"Don't be discouraged, J, I believe in your ability, they will soon know that they are wrong. In this way, you wait for the news at home, I will contact a few more NBA teams, and give you the news when the time comes."

··········
The next day, Jiang Dashan received a notice from the team that he might be waived, so he didn't have to train with the team and didn't have to participate in the game with the team.The news that Jiang Dashan will be laid off began to spread.

The major media and newspapers in Cleveland began to paint Jiang Dashan black, saying that he was the cancer of the Cavaliers and the maker of chaos in the locker room.However, the Chinese media and the American media in other regions analyzed Jiang Dashan and Owen fairly.A few media outlets even openly support Jiang Dashan. His ability is stronger than Irving, and he is more suitable for the Cavaliers. He is the core that the Cavaliers should guarantee.

The next Cavaliers game will still be broadcast, and Yang Yi and Su Qun also expressed their dissatisfaction in the live broadcast room. "Jiang Dashan is such an excellent player. He is said to be a cancer of the Cavaliers. I don't know what the Cavaliers think. They now treat Jiang Dashan as a rag. They pick it up when they want to use it, and throw it into the trash when they don't want to use it." Su Qun agreed, "Irving is indeed one of the best guards in the league, but I personally think he is not suitable for the Cavaliers. It is almost 0, and the defense is also poor, so he can only play singles. Although his efficiency has improved, Xiao Jiang’s ability is obvious to all. Jiang Dashan can play, shoot, assist, play off the ball, and can also organize offenses. Such a good guard, the Cavaliers You can cut it off, right, but you can’t accuse him of unnecessary crimes!”

Netizens in China have also always praised Jiang Dashan, "The management of the Cavaliers is all X!" "Jiang Dashan has made compromises for the team! Why don't you let him go!"·········

On that day, the Cavaliers officially waived all of Jiang Dashan.Jiang Dashan held a press conference on the same morning.
