Chapter 191 David Robinson

7 month 1 day.

Since the draft conference a few days ago has attracted widespread attention from fans, today this day has once again attracted all the eyes of the NBA to Oakland!

At the Orlando International Airport, John Gabriel wore a very formal suit and combed his black hair very neatly. From time to time, he looked at a group of people passing by, as if anxiously Looking for someone!

Since the Magic made a horrific 37 trades in just eight months last season, no one in the league has no idea what Gabriel is doing!
With Gabriel's final trade done on February 2000, 2, with a slew of draft picks and valuable cap space freed up, after a league vote, Gabriel is what other managers imagined. Become the best manager of the season!

Now, he is waiting for a superstar who will turn this team around as soon as he joins the Magic!

Just as Gabriel looked around anxiously from time to time, a 2-meter-tall black man wearing a shirt and jeans with a slightly dull complexion suddenly walked out of the passage!

Seeing the appearance of this figure, Gabriel suppressed the excitement in his heart, and hurried over with his assistant!

"Tim, you are welcome to accept our invitation and come to this exciting city!" Gabriel looked excitedly at the slightly tired Duncan. Arrived as promised, excitedly accepted Duncan's salute, and then excitedly introduced him to this city that children all over the world yearn for!
Since Duncan returned to free agency, his appearance has made the entire league excited!

All the teams tried their best to invite this man who was destined to become a superstar to their city, and there was no team manager who was not deeply fascinated by Duncan!

Now, when the media reports that Duncan and Gabriel are in Orlando's largest playground at the same time, the rest of the league's managers are all nervous, especially Spurs general manager and coach Gregg Popovich. Vicky is the most nervous about coming!
Since Duncan showed his willingness to explore the price, Popovich couldn't sleep all night, and because of Duncan's injury this season, after the Spurs' disappointing first round trip, the desire to renew Duncan's contract became stronger and stronger. Get up!
"David, I think you should come back for a while!" Popovich looked solemnly at the tall buildings outside the office window, thinking of the actions of the Magic and the appearance of various rumors, he had to give his love to David · Robinson brought him back from the beautiful resort, Maldives, to make some effort on the contract extension.

Robinson, who was playing on the beach with his wife and children, suddenly became serious after receiving a call from Popovich, and then hurried back to the San Antonio!

Oakland.

Bruce frowned and looked at the newspaper in his hand. Although he knew Duncan's final answer very well in his previous life, he could hardly understand Duncan's actions at this time when he saw the description of the Magic and Duncan in the newspaper!

"Orlando has a lot of salary space this year to sign at least two superstars. Today, Orlando finally ushered in the arrival of their long-awaited superstar!"

"Tim Duncan is a new generation of superstars rising in this era of missing superstars. No one can doubt his great potential and future dominance."

"When the Magic rolled out the red carpet for Tim's visit outside of Orlando home with Gabriel and owner Richard DeVos, we had reason to believe that Tim's final choice would be the iconic building. A very popular team!"

After reading this article, Bruce was speechless!

In the previous life, because Duncan left a very strong mark in the Spurs, both Bruce and the fans thought he was a consistent player.

But seeing the description and some so-called messages in this newspaper now, Bruce was surprised to find that the facts were not the same, which made him feel a little at a loss!

If Bruce knew the relationship between Duncan and Hill, he would definitely not have such an idea!

7 month 6 day.

When Duncan visited the major attractions in Orlando under the kind invitation of Gabriel and his boss Richard DeVos with a satisfied mood, Popovich and the returning David Robinson chased after him to Orlando!

"Greg, our chance must be the greatest. I believe Tim will not make this choice!" Although he was very anxious about Duncan's final ownership, as the pillar of the team, Robinson had to say this. Soothe the gloomy Popovich!
"David, Tim has his choice. If we can get Grant (Hill) to join, then Tim will definitely choose to renew his contract with us without hesitation!" Flashed a trace of helplessness and said slowly!

"This..." Thinking of the Spurs' salary space and the owner's financial resources, Robinson couldn't help being stunned!
Looking out of the car window at the bustling and exquisite Orlando at night, Robinson couldn't help hesitating and apprehensive for the first time!
Compared with Orlando's huge market, although San Antonio is not the smallest ball market in the league, their owners and facts are not enough to make them spend a huge amount of money to acquire some star players, which also makes the Spurs in the Super League. Encountered some embarrassing problems in the signing of giant or first-class star players!

Now, the Spurs finally got Duncan, a phenomenal player. Both Popovich and team owner Peter Whittle understand the final end of this team after losing Duncan!
As the Spurs won the NBA championship in that shortened season, everyone saw Duncan's super dominance and his great contribution to the team!

If Duncan is lost, this is simply a desperate thing!

"David, you should know how to impress Tim!" After Popovich finished speaking, he closed his eyes exhaustedly and leaned on the backrest behind him!
"I know!"

Amid Robinson's apprehension and Popovich's depression, the vehicle they were riding in slowly stopped in the hotel where Duncan was staying!
As the car slowly stopped outside the hotel, Popovich and Robinson got out of the car and couldn't help being surprised by the deliberate arrangement of the Magic!
Without him, it was the four-star hotel called Waldorf Astoria that surprised them!

Although the Waldorf Astoria Hotel does not have the luxury of its parent company, the Hilton Hotel, the hotel's comprehensive facilities and warm layout have always been loved by most people!
The hotel not only has a variety of luxury suites, a well-organized swimming pool, a first-class spa room in the United States, a huge golf course, an elegantly furnished but warm restaurant, plus a quiet bar and a luxurious banquet hall, this hotel will make it luxurious. But without losing the elegant temperament, it suddenly exudes!

Looking at the various vehicles leaving or arriving outside the hotel from time to time, Popovich and Robinson couldn't help but shook their heads secretly and walked in!
After the two walked into the hotel, they didn't choose to stay, but walked directly towards the elevator!
When they came to Auckland, they had already had some communication with Duncan, so the two went directly to a luxury suite on the 12th floor of the hotel!

"Bang bang bang!"

Coming to the door of the room marked "001", Popovich knocked on the door very seriously!

It seemed that the owner of the room had been waiting for a long time, and the moment he heard the knock on the door, he opened the door very quickly!
"Wow, David, you are so amazing!" Duncan looked at Robinson with a wry smile on his face, hugged him vigorously, then looked at Popovich and said, "Greg, It's great to see you guys here!"

Seeing Duncan's happy face, Popovich struggled to smile, and then entered the room with Robinson at his invitation!

Entering the room, the first thing that catches the eye is a spacious floor-to-ceiling window, from which you can enjoy the large green space of the Waldorf Astoria Hotel!
On the right side of the floor-to-ceiling windows is a row of elegant leather sofas, and the three wine glasses placed on the coffee table in front of the sofas show that Duncan has already prepared!

As the two sat on the sofa one after another, Duncan poured red wine for the two of them very familiarly, and then poured a glass for himself, and slowly sat in the position opposite to the two of them!
"Tim, it seems that you are in a very good mood!" Robinson secretly smiled bitterly, looked at Duncan who was in a very good mood, and said with a helpless smile.

"This city is really fascinating!" For some reason, Duncan obviously showed a very good impression of the city of Orlando!

"Tim, you know that San Antonio is much more comfortable than here, and we really need you to return to the Spurs!" When Popovich said the previous sentence, a trace of embarrassment flashed across his face very quickly, and then he looked sincerely. With Duncan!

"That's right, Tim, we've had an extraordinary brotherhood over the three years we've fought alongside you, and I don't want to lose you as a brother!" Robinson sitting on the other side didn't wait for Duncan to answer, and then Popovich said Said after the end.

"Greg, David, I am very grateful for your sincerity, but now I have to seriously consider the possibility of some things!" Duncan struggled and looked at the two sincerely!

Popovich and Robinson showed wry smiles one after another, they knew very well what Duncan was thinking at this time.

Since winning the championship in a shortened season, although the Spurs are still a strong team in the league, they always have hidden dangers of aging!
Coupled with the obvious decline in the team's main lineup and veterans on the bench, the future Spurs will definitely not have Grant Hill, who has gradually revealed that he wants to join the Magic, and Tracy Mack, who is extremely interested in joining the Magic. Grady's appeal is big!

Think about it, what an exciting combination the Big Three are. Compared with the Spurs' aging lineup, this temptation is obviously more than twice as strong!
For a moment, the room suddenly fell into silence, and the three of them were thinking about the things in their hearts one after another with contemplative faces!
"Tim, I haven't been able to play for a few years!" Robinson's sudden words completely broke the silence in the room. Duncan and Popovich looked at the calm Robinson in shock.

Seeing Duncan's dumbfounded look, Robinson smiled very freely: "Tim, this team belongs to you. I said as early as when you joined the Spurs that this team will belong to you sooner or later." your!"

"Now, the time is ripe. I see your dominance and super growth rate. This team already has another master!!!"

Duncan looked at the more sincere and calm Robinson in amazement, he was completely shocked by Robinson's words!
