Chapter 192 "The Great Riot"
Chapter 192 "The Great Riot"
Duncan stood in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling windows with complicated emotions, looking at the bleak backs of Popovich and Robinson, the softest part of his heart seemed to be stabbed hard, making him uncomfortable!
"David, we have tried our best!" Sitting in the taxi, Popovich said with a solemn expression.
"Hehe, I think Tim will definitely make his most correct decision!" Robinson didn't feel worried at all, he had already done what he had to do, and said what he had to say, and now he just wanted to be with himself My wife and children had a wonderful offseason!
On July 7, Gabriel looked at Duncan who walked into the boarding passage with a complicated expression. Thinking of the other party's hesitant expression, he couldn't help feeling worried!
Bruce sat behind the desk, looking at the news in his hand about Popovich's trip to Oakland in person, and understood their urgency very well.
"Hey, if the Spurs lost Duncan, it would be a disaster, but..." Bruce laughed at himself, and couldn't help laughing when he thought of Ginobili!
As the information of Duncan and others gradually detonated the entire United States, it was reported that a free agent was negotiating with a certain team.
Just the second day after Duncan returned to San Antonio, a piece of news suddenly caused an uproar in the league!
"After learning about Orlando, Pistons All-Star player Grant Hill has decided to join the Magic. He will not return to the Pistons!"
A piece of news about Hill was constantly bombarded in all the paper media and some TV stations. All the media in the United States gathered outside the arena of the Magic team.
Although he already knew Hill's ultimate ownership, Bruce was still speechless at Hill's strong attention after seeing the information!
With Hill's very firm announcement of joining the Magic, another supernova with super potential has gradually entered the eyes of the media!
Tracy McGrady stays in her home in Miami Beach depressed, looking at everything around her, it feels like Hill's face is smiling at him!
Since he regained his free agency, the Raptors have kept promising him retention and a maximum salary, but the cold Toronto and a group of aging teammates are not enough to keep him there. He wants to return to the United States and longs for a A place that can bring him a chance to become a champion!
"Tracy, what are you staring at alone?" McGrady's girlfriend, Colenda Harris, looked suspiciously at McGrady who was alone in a daze, and then walked over!
"God, how should I choose?" McGrady hugged Kolenda into her arms depressedly, and murmured blankly!
"What's making you so upset?" Even though Kolenda knew about the decision McGrady was about to face, she still asked calmly.
"Korenda, do you think I will stay in Toronto and be the boss of a team? Or will I attack the championship with the stars?" McGrady gently stroked Kolenda's black hair and murmured subconsciously. .
"Of course I'm going back to the United States to fight for the championship!" Kolenda said without hesitation. Thinking of the deserted stadium and cold weather in Toronto, he couldn't help but continued excitedly: "America, we need to go back to the United States!"
Hearing his girlfriend's words, Mai Di always opened his eyes in a sleepless state, with a strange light flashing, and fixedly looked at the vast and boundless sea outside the window of the villa!
With a large number of free agents entering the "market", all teams in the league are operating!
In 2000, it was called a "big riot" by the media and fans, because this year alone, a terrifying 129 people are about to become free agents, and these players accounted for a terrifying 461 out of all 27 players in the league. 9%.
The biggest names are Tim Duncan, Tracy McGrady, Reggie Miller, Jalen Rose, Glenn Rice and some superstars who are up for grabs!
Although the Raptors gave McGrady a seven-year, $6 million quasi-maximum contract on June 8, I don’t know if the cold Raptors brought some bad feelings to McGrady. Can announce whether to stay or not.
Bruce looked at the description of this year's super free agent year in Sports Illustrated in his hand, and couldn't help but be envious of this "feast" summer!
"Bruce, how are you doing recently?" Wilkens directly opened the door of the office, first glanced at the frowning and contemplative Bruce, and then continued: "It's so happy that Tim and Tracy are going to stay or stay." Already!"
Hearing what Wilkens said, Bruce looked up in amazement: "Is there anything to be happy about?"
"Haha, don't you think the Magic are like a clown holding a lot of dollar bills?" Wilkens pretended to be an exaggerated clown, and then he couldn't help laughing out loud!
"Uh..." Bruce looked at Wilkens, who was standing in front of the desk laughing a little bit dumbfounded. To be honest, he didn't think the Magic team looked like a clown, but admired Gabriel's operation!
In a team, no matter what kind of reconstruction it is, at least it will come gradually, but Gabriel's crazy trading methods really make other managers in the league admire!
Now, seeing Duncan and Hill going to Orlando one after another for "sightseeing", coupled with Tracy McGrady who has shown great interest in Orlando, this is simply exciting news!
"No, Lenny, I don't think the Magic will suffer a fatal blow this summer!" Bruce shook his head helplessly and said firmly.
"Oh? How do you say it?" Wilkens looked curiously at the serious Bruce.
"What the Magic need most now is the presence of stars. Since Shaquille left Orlando, especially after winning the championship this year, the Orlando people are almost regretting it, but this year of free agency makes them very eager to get a I want to prove myself by joining one or several superstars, so I say that their determination and dedication will definitely be rewarded, instead of becoming the funniest clown this season!" Bruce recalled the information about the Magic in his previous life, and he was very sure analyzed.
"God, is John (Gabriel) that smart?" Wilkens begs to disagree, exclaiming in surprise.
"Haha, the funniest clown is in Chicago!" Thinking of Klaus' current situation, Bruce couldn't help but feel amused!
Since July 7 when the league released the negotiation time, Klaus has been like a lunatic giving olive branches to all the stars who may join the Bulls. He can even give a player who is only the main substitute. A huge contract with an average annual value of 1 million US dollars.
It’s okay if these players choose to join, but no matter how Klaus gives these players very good treatment, but no star is willing to play under the guy who forced Jordan away. This is also Klaus’s Let's go!
"Tim will definitely return to the Spurs. He is not an emotionless person!" Wilkens shook his head casually and said with great certainty, thinking of the things that had been widely reported by the media before.
Bruce looked at Wilkens, who looked at him for granted, in surprise. He admired this old man so much!
If we follow the history of the previous life, Duncan almost made the decision to stay behind after Hill joined the Magic in early August, but now he heard Wilkens' very positive words, which made him admire Wilkens very much. Vision and analysis of the relationship between the personnel and the team!
"That's right, Tim will definitely stay with the Spurs!" Bruce nodded affirmatively. Thinking of the opponent's unwillingness to play as a center forward, he couldn't help but regretfully said: "If Tim is willing to play as a center forward, we definitely have a huge advantage." The advantages!"
"That's right!" Wilkens agreed with Bruce's words very much. Ever since he accidentally learned from his mouth that he had teased Popovich about Duncan before, Wilkens would not With such wishful thinking!
"Well, David (Robinson) and Greg (Popovich) may have contacted Tim now, and everything will wait for August!" Bruce ended the topic with regret, and the two immediately People discussed this "big explosion" like free agent market!
After the Raptors offered McGrady a huge contract, all managers in the league secretly weighed their own advantages!
To get McGrady, no matter which team has to consider the lineup and salary, if it is the Grizzlies, even if they will provide McGrady with a super-maximum salary contract, their lineup is not McGrady. Interested in!
His worth has been basically determined, the issue of money is no longer very important, what McGrady considers is only the issue of whether the team is competitive!
As the media gradually predicted and reported the whereabouts of Duncan, McGrady, Grant Hill and Eddie Jones, the four top stars, the other players who were on the sidelines were abnormally silent!
The movements of these four will always affect the other important factors in the final decision of the players. Some players will not choose to be on the same team with these players if they want a big contract. The veterans are paying close attention to these players who want to fulfill their wish to leave, a championship ring!
Among these rumors and information, the one that attracted Bruce the most was Mark Jackson, who had recovered his freedom.
Since the veteran returned to free agency, he has been favored by various teams. Although he is 35 years old and is about to celebrate his 36th birthday, his seasoned experience and super organizational ability are very much wanted by other teams. To get!
Although the Warriors' back line is not bad, but currently only Cassell and Billups are in control, and Billups' growth also needs the guidance of this veteran who is very willing to teach young players. With this veteran, Billups and the Warriors will definitely get some unexpected surprises!
"Laney, how sure are you about Mark?" Bruce looked at Wilkens expectantly. Because of his prestige and use of players, Wilkens was very popular among the veterans in the league, so Bruce chose Let him touch the Mark Jackson thing!
"Hehe, Mark said that if you can give him a satisfactory price, he will be very happy to join the Warriors!" Wilkens blinked playfully, with a hint of cunning like a naughty boy flashing in his eyes, and looked at him playfully. Bruce!
Just about to answer excitedly, Bruce suddenly remembered the scene that happened in the lounge of the training hall last season, and smiled bitterly: "Sorry, Lanny, we may have to study it for a while!"
