NBA: Started as Sakuragi Hanamichi

Chapter 388 Doing Everything to Get Yao Ming

Chapter 388 Doing Everything to Get Yao Ming

In the following time, the 2007 NBA Draft refreshed the rookies one after another.

They all found their teams.

Only Ah Lian was manipulated by the Lakers in the dark.

Kupchak personally called the Bucks management and said that he wanted the No. [-] player from China.

After the Bucks management learned about it, they couldn't help being happy.

Is it true that all Chinese players are the same as Yao Ming and Lin Feng?

They chose the United Arab Emirates, and they were not too optimistic.

The main reason is to consider the commercial value behind the Chinese players. If they say that the UAE will definitely be famous in the NBA, they don't quite believe it.

So the Bucks management negotiated with Kupchak, wanting to get the UAE, what is the exchange?

There is no certain bargaining chip, and the Bucks management is not a fool, just hand over the UAE casually.

Kupchak traded several players, plus several future draft picks, all to the Bucks.

Chris Mihm, Brian Cook, K Brown, Radmanovic, plus two future draft picks.

These draft picks are not in the front position.

Some are in the lottery and others are in the second round.

Anyway, I packed a lot of things, and the deal came to the United Arab Emirates.

Looking at the Bucks management, this bargaining chip is not bad.

After all, the UAE has not played a game in the NBA, so who knows how good it is?

Although the domestic CBA has played well, the CBA is a CBA after all, and it cannot be compared with the NBA.

And the bargaining chips given by the Lakers management are indeed not good.

But they think it's not a loss to change so much to the United Arab Emirates.

What's more, Brian Cook often starts in this year's competition.

Averaged 8.2 points and 7.6 rebounds per game.

This data looks commonplace, and it may be more powerful than the United Arab Emirates.

The Bucks management thought of this and immediately agreed to the deal.

They won the UAE with the sixth overall pick. They really didn't cherish it and sent it to the Lakers.

The deal was reached on the third day of the draft!

The news of Ah Lian going to the Lakers immediately detonated the entire Internet.

Especially in the Huaxia region, the fans love it.

Good guy, Ah Lian has gone to the Lakers, and will be on the same team with Lin Feng in the future.

With the Lakers defending their title, the UAE can also get a championship ring in the NBA.

"It's amazing, Ah Lian was traded to the Lakers. I dare say, this is definitely Lin Feng's secret operation, right?"

"It should be Lin Feng negotiating with the Lakers management to get Kupchak and Jenny to trade UAE from the Bucks."

"In this case, the Lakers will have our two Chinese players."

"You might say that Yao Ming will go to the Lakers again."

"That would be really powerful!"

"After Yao Ming arrived, he took Bynum's place. The starting lineup was Lin Feng, Kobe, Lao Yu, Lamar Odom, and Yao Ming."

"Then Ah Lian went to the NBA. It's impossible to start directly, right?"

"UA started off the bench, performed well, and will occasionally start in the future. This is simply invincible!"

"Brothers, I'm suddenly looking forward to the start of the new season. Yao Ming should go to the Lakers. It's meaningless to stay in the Rockets. He can't even make it to the second round of the playoffs."

"Yeah, I don't know what Yao Ming is thinking? Could it be that Houston is better than Los Angeles?"

"No, it is estimated that Yao Ming values ​​friendship and is very loyal to the team. So far he has not made a choice."

"Oh! It's a pity..."

Huaxia fans are in spirit.

Everyone was talking about why Yao Ming didn't go to the Lakers?

As long as you go to the Lakers, you will see some this season.

And Lin Feng has been talking with Yao Ming, hoping that Yao Ming will make up his mind and join the Rockets.

The Lakers are determined to win inside signings.

After Kobe came back from his trip to China, he found Lin Feng on purpose.

"Hi! Lin, do you have time to come to my place? I have something to discuss with you."

"What's the matter?" Lin Feng was suspicious, what did Kobe want from him?

"You will know when you come, about some transactions."

Kobe was straight to the point.

After hearing this answer, Lin Feng had a clue in his heart.

He knew that Kobe had always hoped to sign in on the inside.

A few years ago, I wanted to team up with Garnett, but Garnett went to the Celtics.

Now that Yao Ming is a free agent, Kobe must want Yao Ming.

Once Yao Ming is acquired, the Lakers will go much smoother on the road to defending the title.

"Kobe, don't you want the Lakers to get Yao too?"

"Lin, you already know?"

Kobe was quite surprised, he didn't tell Lin Feng about this, but Lin Feng foresaw it in advance.

And at the draft meeting, Lin Feng asked the Lakers management to trade Yi Jianlian, and Kobe also heard about it.

"Lin, the No. [-] from your country, you asked Lao Ku to trade with Jenny, right?"

Kobe asked.

Lin Feng nodded: "Yes, I asked Lao Ku to trade with Jenny. The deal is now concluded, and the United Arab Emirates will soon be able to join our Lakers."

"can."

Kobe didn't say anything, but he had an impression of Yi Jianlian.

In international competitions, I have seen Yi Jianlian's performance.

A mediocre player, not outstanding, but not that bad either.

"He can start off the bench."

Kobe said.

"Yes, let Ah Lian start as a substitute first, and then slowly watch his performance."

"Well." Kobe said again: "Compared with this Yi, I hope the team gets Yao."

"Come here, let's find Kupchak and Jenny together and listen to their ideas."

"OK."

Lin Feng nodded slightly, and then drove to Kobe's house.

Kobe looked refreshed after a round in Huaxia.

Seeing Lin Feng, he gave him a hug and invited Lin Feng into the living room.

After sitting at Kobe's house for a while, the two set off for Kupchak's office.

There are not many players in the free market this year, and the Lakers are not in the mood to get the rest. Even Yao Ming, the inside gatekeeper, Kupchak and Jenny are also waiting and watching.

"Old Ku..."

Seeing Kupchak for the first time, Kobe greeted him.

"What are you busy with recently? In the free market, are there any players we need?"

Bryant cliché, listen to Kupchak's thoughts.

"Oh! Kobe, and China Lin, I know what you mean by coming here."

Kupchak smiled: "To be honest, our management is also very interested in Yao in the free market, but I don't know if Yao will come to our Lakers?"

"Give the Rockets enough chips, they won't disagree."

Kobe said: "In the final analysis, the NBA is also a business. We need to sign insiders, so as to ensure the defense!"

"Kobe, you are right. In the final analysis, this is also a business field. We are still waiting to see, hoping to get Yao smoothly."

"At present, Jenny and I are trying our best to negotiate with the Rockets management."

"As long as they show signs of letting go, Yao must belong to our Lakers!"
