Chapter 172 Contract Renewal, Target Person

After a day off, the Eagles challenged the Orlando Magic in an away game, defeating their opponents 113:104 and achieving their 40th victory of the season. (40-21)

After sending away Francis, the Magic team is more united than in the first half of the season. As a point guard, Jameer Nelson is not qualified in terms of ability, but he knows to hand the ball to Turkoglu to handle, and he is more focused on personal offense And the pick-and-roll with Howard.

The Turkish agents have been reused and have shown their organizational skills. The Magic's operation is much smoother than when Francis was there, and their performance has improved significantly. The team also sees the hope of hitting the playoffs.

The team's biggest problem is still the 3th position. Tony Barty's performance is not stable. He has some 3D attributes in the power forward position, but the [-]rd is unstable, and the D is also unstable. The ability is there, but such traits are obviously not suitable. As the starting power forward.On the bench, there is Bynum, a potential insider. He and Howard's twin-tower tactics are actually good, but Bynum is not suitable for pick-and-rolls, and he is not compatible with Turkoglu.

That is to say, the team's operation was a bit slow and missed the trade deadline; otherwise, Brian Hill would definitely ask the management to trade Bynum for a capable power forward.

And there are people who appreciate Bynum. Ke Yan, who is sitting on the coaching bench of the Eagles, is constantly discussing Bynum's situation with Snyder. interest.

Against the Nets, the Magic's backcourt was blown up.Ariza, who Ke Yan is quite interested in, was only a substitute in the Magic. The combination of Nelson and Stevenson was crushed in all aspects against Paul and Joe Johnson. The method fills two positions at the same time.

And Jerome James, who has not played much since he came to the Eagles, finally played his own value in this game against Howard. He carried Howard for 10 minutes, fouled three times, and sent Warcraft to the free throw line 6 times. It is already his greatest role.

After the game, Howard and Josh Smith were good friends and hugged each other for a long time.Now Howard is laughing and laughing all day long, he is a pistachio, and he won't show his face when he loses. With such a boss, the atmosphere of the team is good.

Ke Yan also walked over to chat with Howard.

In the summer itself, Keyan had the opportunity to go to magic, but unfortunately, due to some mistakes, he didn't make it in the end.If there is an if, Ke Yan dare not say that he will be brought to the position of the Eagles, at least it will be no problem to advance to the playoffs.

The foundation of the Magic is even better than that of the Eagles!

It only takes two hours to get back to Atlanta from Orlando.After arriving at the airport, Keyan did not go home immediately, but went to the team's office.

In the last home game, after the team won the 39th victory of the season, Ke Yan set himself a goal of 52 wins, and at the same time called out to the team to discuss the renewal of the contract.

Without any hesitation, Anthony Ressler directly issued an order. Before the team reached 52 wins, he offered Ke Yan a contract with an annual salary of 600 million in advance, and the contract period was also the 3 years that Ke Yan needed. .

As far as he knows, Ke Yan decided to leave the Lakers last season because he emphasized in front of the media that he was still an "acting head coach", but the Lakers management did not respond to this.Therefore, this time Ressler was very concerned, no matter what, he had to keep this talented young marshal!

As for the 150 million annual salary beyond the promise, whether it is business development or the ticket revenue brought about by the increase in the team's attendance, it is ten times this figure, not to mention that Ke Yan can lead the team to play in the playoffs. Ticket income and broadcast fee income.

Ressler's brain twitched, and he was fussing over these three melons with Keyan!

Watching Ke Yan sign the contract, a stone in Larry Sander's heart finally fell. This is the most important one of his many tasks during the offseason. Ke Yan's contract renewal work is completed, and many tasks can be better in the future Expand.

"Happy cooperation, Kimi

. "Larry Sand excitedly said, "I hope we can lead the Eagles to move on. "

"Larry, we have a tough job this offseason!" Ke Yan said.

"Change for whole money, you said it!" Larry Sand was agitated. After the contract renewal was completed, it seemed that Ke Yan was going to tell himself the whole plan.

"Pay close attention to the situation of the Timberwolves. I want to win Garnett in the draft!" Ke Yan said confidently.

"kg?" This candidate was not only unexpected by Larry Sander, but also reasonable.

Unexpected, mainly because Garnett is strong, the transaction value is huge, and at the same time he has a "loyal minister" personality. Most importantly, he has the right to veto transactions. Where he does not want to go, he can choose to refuse transactions.

But it's not hard to understand if it makes sense.Ke Yan said that he wanted change for the whole money, which shows that the value and ranking of this player will definitely not be low!

Among the league's top stars, Duncan and Nowitzki are in good condition, and their teams are all top teams. It is impossible to have the idea of ​​​​moving, and it is impossible for the Spurs and Mavericks to trade them, no matter how many chips they have; The same is true of Nash, and he is in the same position as Paul. It is impossible for Ke Yan to sacrifice the younger and more potential Paul for him; Kobe is not in a good situation. , would rather use the Clippers to raise the price than consider other teams, which more or less shows that he does not consider leaving Los Angeles, and the probability is not high; judging by the method of elimination, either Iverson is in decline, or he is increasingly unable to carry Timberwolves' Garnett.

Although Larry Sander is just a management team, it's not that he doesn't know the ball. Even a fool can see that Ke Yan doesn't like players like Iverson who hold the ball for a long time. Isn't that just Garnett?

"Yes, imagine what effect our current lineup will have if Garnett replaces Josh." Ke Yan asked.

In the run-and-gun system, Garnett is Josh Smith with weaker impact (30 years old), wider shooting range, and better handwork; playing pick-and-roll with Paul, the power of the two people's cooperation is compared to the previous Utah Shuangsha. It will be much worse; Garnett can also play low post singles. His offensive ability is regarded as a lower level at the superstar level, but most of the time it is enough; he can also directly upgrade the Eagles' defensive system, at least two grades above. . . . . . .

Garnett's weakness is his lack of offensive ability, and his advantage is his versatility.Don't worry about any adaptation problems, he will definitely be able to find his own position!

It's just,,,,,, Larry Sander complained in his heart, "You have a good idea, the key is that you can get it in exchange!"

Garnett and the Timberwolves are not just as simple as building the core of the team. He has a nickname, "big

ticket", his commercial value is very high, and the Timberwolves are pointing to Garnett to sell tickets! Sending him away, how many percentage points will the Timberwolves' home attendance drop?

"I will try my best to offer a price that the other party cannot refuse. Except for Paul, Joe Johnson, and Dior." Ke Yan saw the other party's concerns and said.

In terms of strength, the Eagles are roughly only in the second tier of the league, but no one has more high-quality chips than the Eagles.

"I can understand keeping Paul, but if you don't put Joe Johnson and Diaw in the deal, McHale probably won't negotiate with us?" Larry Sand reminded.

Brother, you are negotiating a deal with the general manager of the NBA, not playing NBA LIVE and forcing a deal.It doesn't matter if Paul doesn't come out, but Joe Johnson and Dior don't come out, what a mess!

"In the 07 draft, there was Oden, the key to the next center era, and Durant, a swingman with talent comparable to Tracy McGrady. If it was me, I wouldn't want Joe Johnson. The impact of combat power is poor, but to ask for young players and draft assets to the greatest extent, and complete the reconstruction in one go." Ke Yan said.

At that time point, the Thunder team did the best.Presti sent away all the immediate combat power that a team could play, concentrated resources on a few rookies, abruptly brought the Thunder back to the playoffs within three years and had a favorable salary environment , The team has almost no junk contracts, and has Durant, an MVP-level player, and Harden and Westbrook, two All-Star-level players.

As for the follow-up development, that is another story.

Larry Sander found it incredible, but he still followed Ke Yan's suggestion and focused on the Timberwolves and Garnett in the next season.

It's a fact that the plan looks wild in the eyes of others.But Ke Yan felt that there was a possibility of taking shape.

Historically, in 07, the 31-year-old Garnett joined the Celtics in a one-for-one change. The chips were Al Jefferson, Gerald Green, Ryan Gomez, and Sebastian Telfair. , Theo Ratliff and two 2009 first-round picks.

Among them, Al Jefferson can be regarded as a potential insider stock and the most valuable asset in the transaction; Gerald Green can be regarded as the lottery ticket for scratching out the word "thank you", and Telfair is a backup point guard with obvious shortcomings. Tliff and Gomez are the role players used to balance the contract. This deal is said to be one for seven, but in fact the Celtics paid only three or four valuable assets.In fact, as the Celtics' record stabilized, the value of the two draft picks was so average that McHale was later angrily denounced by Timberwolves fans as a "traitor".

Whether there are other factors behind the deal between the Timberwolves and the Celtics, it is inconvenient for Keyan to say too much.His goal is Garnett, who just turned 06 in 30. It is normal to pay a higher price. It may be at least five to six valuable chips. It can be expected that it will be a sky-high price, but this kind of payment is worth it.

If it takes place, it will not only help the Eagles dominate in the future "West is strong and East is weak" alliance ecology, but also can disintegrate the threat of the extremely powerful Celtics in the future.

. . . . . .

The 04 No. 05 pick came to the door, and the Eagles ushered in the challenge of the [-] No. [-] pick at home.

So far in the season, there is no need to repeat the topic of who is better, Paul or Bogou.Although the Bucks have various reasons such as "Bodog's performance is not bad, and he is qualified as the No. The talented point guard who had a historic rookie season is still an unforgivable loss.Is Reid more important than Paul?You obviously offered Paul with Reid Gabo, you see whether the Eagles will talk to you.

However, at the beginning of the game, the Bucks showed a stronger desire to win than the Eagles, both offensive and defensive.The situation of the two teams is different. The Eagles are in the fourth position in the Eastern Conference. There is a high probability that they will not get up or down. Ke Yan called out the goal of 52 wins, but the subconscious mind of the players may be to keep the Eastern Conference No. [-] The fourth position is preparing for the playoffs; while the eighth-ranked Bucks in the East will fight for the playoffs.Reed, the boss of the team, took the lead in this game. With the reputation of a "magic shooter", he took the lead in this game. He frequently used his shooting threats to hit the basket and cause damage, showing his determination to "head-to-head" with the Eagles.

As the leader of the team, Reed took the lead, and other players of the Bucks were also infected. The top pick like Bogou can bend down and pounce on the floor to grab a half of the goal with the Eagles.

In the sprint stage of the season, teams on the fringes of the playoffs are the most difficult to play!They are really playing with you!

Facing the more impactful and more dangerous moves of the Bucks, the Eagles players were a little bit "doing big things at the expense of their lives", overwhelmed in momentum, and lost the game 98:107. (40-22)

Defeated the Magic first, and then lost to the Bucks. It was like doing a small favor to the Bucks. It directly helped the Bucks open a win gap with the Magic and helped the opponent to stabilize. Eighth in the Eastern Conference.

After the game, Ke Yan expressed his dissatisfaction to the players in the locker room.

"I'm not satisfied with your performance. This is a game we should have won!" Ke Yan said sternly, "Before the start of the season, no one was optimistic about us. When I proposed the goal of 39 wins, many people may It's all a joke! They think we can't do it. In fact, we did it in only 60 games. What is it? You put the highest concentration on the court! You worked hard to prove the outside world. Your doubts are wrong!"

"As for today's game, I don't know if you were complacent or for some other reason. You lost your focus on the game! This is more disappointing than losing the game!"

"In any case, in the next game, we have to play our own game!" Ke Yan said.

Compared with last season's selective outburst, Ke Yan is more majestic as a head coach in the Eagles, and his words have more weight. This is also the benefit of his own team building. After all, the players are all brought out by themselves.

At the press conference, Ke Yan announced that he had completed the three-year contract extension with the Eagles, which gave the fans a reassurance, and also made the fans come out of the disappointment after the loss in an instant, and turned to face the ball. The team is not leaving excited.

"Kimi is the core of our team building. If he renews the team, we have nothing to worry about."

"If it is possible to add a time limit to this contract, I hope it is... 1 years."

"It's mainly about 'Heroes saddened by beauty pass', we have Never here, Kimi can't leave."

"Kimi-Sloan-Ke."

"Eagle Championship!!!"
