Chapter 534 The transaction is successful!(1/2)
Because of Mutombo’s interview content, the NBA is very lively now, even more lively than when Mooning traded!
The Golden State Warriors are different from the Chicago Bulls.
The Chicago Bulls were the first in the Eastern Conference in the regular season last season and the runner-up in the playoffs. Such a team joined a superstar, which of course makes people feel that the NBA has ushered in the finale.
Just like when Barkley went to the Rockets, the Rockets, who formed the Big Three, were also calling for the NBA to usher in the finale.
The Warriors are seventh in the Western Conference last season. Even if they add a Mutombo out of thin air, it won't make people feel anything.
Although the Warriors' Spraywell, Tim Hardaway, and Chris Mullin are also three All-Stars, the Warriors are also the team of the Big Three.
But now no one in the league knows that the three stars of the Warriors don’t like each other. The team’s former head coach, Nelson, and the team’s former future Webber are victims of this internal strife.
Webber was thrown to the worst Washington bullet in the league by the Warriors, while the team coach Nelson left the team and went to New York.
Although Weber, who caused trouble the most, left even though he was strongly driven by the Warriors, Sprayville, who was "good baby", had long been contaminated by Weber.
Without Weber's lead, although Sprewell dared not do anything big, there are really a lot of trivial things like dissipating the team's assistant coach from time to time.
This is also the main reason why last season, the Warriors, who were obviously very strong on paper, only reached the seventh place in the Western Conference, and the first round of the playoffs.
The Warriors' lineup is the starting point guard Tim Hardaway, the starting shooting guard is Sprewell, the starting small forward is Chris Mullin, the starting power forward is Gugliota, the starting power forward is exchanged for Weber, and the center is Secali.
This is a lineup of three All-Stars and two quasi-All-Stars. Even in the West, it is impossible to be just seventh.
Therefore, in the eyes of others, the Warriors have never lacked strength and talent, and what they lack is the head coach who combines the strength and talent of the players.
Therefore, everyone can understand that the Warriors are digging Lakers assistant coach Adelman, after all, Adelman is also one of the famous coaches.
But is it necessary for the Warriors to get Mutombo?
Of course there is no need. Mutombo is not the inside line that the Warriors need at all!
After the Warriors and Adelman reached a coaching contract, they didn't need to put a pure defensive blocking maniac in their fifth position!
They are indeed looking for a deal now because the team's new head coach Adelman is not very happy with Sekali.
In Adelman's tactical system, the team's center cannot be Secali.
However, even if Adelman is not satisfied with Sekali, he will not lose his wits and go to Mutombo!
There are only two candidates that Adelman likes.
One is Heat center Divac.
One is to use Sekali to trade a draft pick in the lottery that is ahead of the lottery zone to sign Wang Zhizhi.
Originally, if Mooning was traded to the Heat, the Heat would agree to complete the three-party transaction with the Warriors and send Divac over.
But in the end, because Mourning went to the Bulls, it was impossible for the Heat to trade Divac, so this option naturally did not exist.
Therefore, after renewing Sprewell, the Warriors have been seeking to trade a lottery pick.
They really have no interest in Mutombo!
Whether the Warriors are interested in Mutombo is not something that the Warriors will believe after they say it themselves.
At least, the Nuggets, who had just collaborated with the Warriors to crack the defection case of Sprewell and Mutombo, was quite unhappy with the Warriors!
After a long time, it turned out that it was your conspiracy!
Finally, no matter how much the Warriors explain, no matter how many denials such as "I don't, it's not me, don't talk nonsense", there is no way for people to believe.
Sprewell is the Warriors' future leader. Both your team's boss and Mutombo have been interviewed by joint interviews. What else can I deny?
Besides, hasn’t Mutombo already been accompliced with Sprewell before?
Now that NBA commercialization has just begun to reach its peak, NBA's contract is very chaotic, but scenes like Warriors, Mutombo and the Nuggets are rare.
Especially Mutombo said that if he can't go to the Warriors, he will not guarantee that he will renew his contract.
This is very fatal!
In the current league, there are many excellent inside players, but there are actually not many who are better than Mutombo, so everyone still has a lot of demand for Mutombo.
But, the deal comes to Mutombo just for a year?
Of course it doesn't matter if it is a competitive team. For those like the Lakers, it doesn't matter if they can only stay Mutombo for a year.
Because these teams already have team cores, there is no need to rebuild around Mutombo.
The transaction came to Mutombo just for the immediate combat power.
But those teams that are preparing to rebuild with Mutombo as the core will not work. If you play for a year, you will run away. Why should I send my chips out?
It can be said that the statement in which Mutombo and Sprewell interviewed made the Nuggets management, who wanted to speak out in a big way, was so angry that they were half-dead.
Mutombo is willing to try to trade after the Warriors' statement comes out.
For example, the Lakers and the Hornets, two playoff teams who lack center, submitted trade applications to the Nuggets.
But these two teams have a big bargaining chip!
The Lakers all over the world know that this team has no value except Lin Han, Eddie Jones and Van Exel.
And what about the Hornets? This team has more valuable players, but apart from Larry Johnson and Kukoc, they don’t need other so-called valuable players!
Larry Johnson and Kukoc, how could the Hornets be sent out!
Other valuable players of the Hornets are not as good as Van Exel sent by the Lakers.
To be honest, the Nuggets had never thought about trading with the Lakers or Hornets before.
But after Mutombo made this move, those teams holding high draft picks would not bet on Mutombo at all.
In this case, the Nuggets have no way to trade with those bad teams, they can only trade with those strong teams.
And those strong teams lack excellent centers are a few of them, such as the Hornets and the Lakers.
What good chips can you get when choosing one of these teams?
It can be said that as the interview between Mutombo and Sprewell came out, the Nuggets were originally proactive, but now they have become very passive.
You can't really throw Mutombo into your hand, right?
The Nuggets are very, very passive now, but it doesn't mean they have no other moves.
Originally, they would not have allowed Mutombo to participate in the transaction.
But soon, after Mutombo's interview statement came out, the Nuggets opened up the ban on other teams being able to access Mutombo.
The Nuggets’ meaning is very obvious, and they hope that those teams with better chips can directly convince Mutombo.
The Nuggets don't want to stop Mutombo from going to the team he wants to go to now.
Now they just want to get enough rewards from Mutombo.
And this is also the reason why Mutombo’s deal is more lively than Mooning’s deal!
Although Mooning's deal is stronger than Mutombo, many of them want to participate because of the special requirements of the Hornets, but they cannot participate even if they want to participate.
What does this mean?
It means that the wasps don’t need too good chips!
The Hornets have no money, and the Hornets really don't need all-star players who have the need to renew their contracts in recent years.
There is no need for those draft picks with high picks. These rookies are now offering big-ticket prices, and the contract requirements are too high.
Those ordinary lottery draws are really not as good as Kukochi. Kukochi's current age and ability are ranked in the top five in any year.
It can be said that Kukochi happens to be the player who meets the Hornets' requirements the most.
Have potential, strong strength, and have a long contract.
Although the number of contracts is not small, the Hornets are completely acceptable!
Therefore, after the Bulls were willing to send Kukoc, other teams had no ability to compete with the Bulls Mooning.
But Mutombo is different. Although Mutombo has said that he will not go without the Warriors, now that the Nuggets have opened up, they can convince Mutombo.
Use your best conditions to convince Mutombo.
Including salary, team status, team support, etc., they can draw big pie for Mutombo.
As the Nuggets were very open to Mutombo, the entire NBA fans were watching the big pie promised by these people to Mutombo with fun.
Some big cakes even passed the media reports, and even some fans who didn’t know much about the ball laughed.
For example, the whole team supports Mutombo to brush data and produce a scoring champion.
For example, some lottery teams last season even said that as long as Mutombo has it, the weakest part of the team can help Mutombo win the regular season MVP!
Even fans who don’t understand football will not believe these teams’ promises, and Mutombo will naturally not believe them.
As for the Nuggets, they were observing on the side with a sneer.
Especially when I see those teams that promise that Mutombo will get the scoring champion, MVP, and a team.
The Nuggets were already sneering and ready to make a tough blow from these teams.
Isn’t these people’s promises to Mutombo just slap them in the face?
Co-working with Mutombo, we can't get the MVP, we can't get the scoring champion, we can't get the first team, we can't get the second team, and we can't even get the best defensive player and the third team. It's all because of our Nuggets' fault?
