Chapter 377 Post-Transaction

Chapter 377 Post-Transaction

The transaction between the Warriors and the Spurs made the trading market, which was somewhat undercurrent, suddenly active!

Even though some diehard fans in San Antonio still treat this deal with suspicion, after all, Carter is not a first-class star, but a super giant who is comparable to Duncan and has a more gorgeous style of play!

According to the regulations of the league, once the transaction is concluded, even for an hour, the players involved in the transaction must leave for the traded team for routine post-transaction inspections!

Tonight, the game between the Spurs and the Warriors was watched by a large number of fans in the league and the managers of each team!

When as many as nine players from both sides were unable to play due to team inspection and testing, everyone was extremely curious about which team would win in the end!

In the evening, as a large number of fans came to Rockefeller Center, Bruce was looking at the two sitting on the sofa in the office excitedly!

"Tim, Steve, Stephen, I wish you great success in your future career with the Warriors!" Bruce smiled, poured whiskey for the three of them with a little excitement, and then raised his glass: "Bless the Warriors, bless all of you!!"

"Thank you!" Duncan finally softened the initial embarrassment and depression under Bruce's sincerity and blessings. Trading is always in a state of excitement!

The four toasted their glasses and drank it all. Smith was the first to speak: "The Warriors are an exciting team. I am very excited to be able to come here and fight side by side with my former mentor again!"

Stephen Jackson drank the whiskey in his glass in silence. He felt a little grateful for Bruce's enthusiasm!

After joining the Spurs this season, he was tired of Popovich's overly critical way. Now that he can come to this team that most people are optimistic about, especially Bruce's gentleness and Wilkens' gentlemanly The coaching style, which makes him feel particularly looking forward to the life of the Warriors!

"In this game, the Warriors will use a victory as a gift for you to join this team. I hope you can watch it carefully!" Bruce looked at Duncan who was calm and finally smiling a little, he Duncan's attitude is very concerned!

"We will!" Smith said with a smile, and then they chatted about some topics about the Warriors!

Popovich looked at the heavy locker room with a solemn face. Even though these players did not show too much complaint at the beginning, after all, Duncan, as the team's key player, his calmness and humor, Already gained a ton of friendships!

"I know you will have some doubts in your mind, but for the long-term development of the team, we must complete these transactions!" Popovich looked at Robinson who was still a little silent, with a flash of apology in his heart, and continued in a soft tone: "Tim's departure was a very difficult decision, but with Vince and Gilbert, we have an exciting combination in the backcourt!!"

Tony Parker looked at Popovich in a daze, thinking that his joining would be a very exciting thing for him!

However, after joining this team, he suddenly felt great confusion and difficulty!

He has never encountered such a harsh, even a little overly harsh coach. During this half of the season, he even had a feeling of wanting to escape!

Seeing Duncan and Steve Smith leave, he felt more and more confused and worried!

As we all know, because of his physical fitness, he was looked down upon by most players after joining the Spurs. Whether it was Robinson or some guys on the team, he always had a vague sense of distance from himself!

If it wasn't for his speed that surprised everyone, I'm afraid he, a European, would be in an embarrassing position in the team!

Looking at the expressions of the players one by one, Popovich couldn't help but feel a burst of emotion in his heart!

"Tonight's game will be a very important game for us!" Popovich said, then walked to the tactical board, arranged for the players for a while, with a firm unquestionable, loudly Said: "We are a strong team, we have an exciting lineup, we will definitely win this game easily!!!"

On the other side, in the locker room of the Warriors, Wilkens watched the slightly downcast players, thinking of this deal that made him extremely excited, even though he still felt a little sad about Carter's departure, but after all this deal The transaction will instantly make the Warriors' inside line reach a peak state!

Duncan's low-post dominance is becoming stronger and stronger, coupled with Nowitzki's good performance in the high position, the performance of these two high-status players will bring exciting changes to the Warriors' tactics.

"Children, I feel sad about Vince's departure!" Wilkens looked at the players calmly, especially the few players who had a good relationship with Carter, and said in a calm tone: "I know this will It has caused some confusion for some of us, but I hope you can understand your own positioning and understanding of new players!"

"Mr. Bruce, made an exciting deal. Even though we lose a lot of players, we have an unparalleled future!"

Wilkens' words made the players gradually relieved, and the confusion in everyone's hearts disappeared.

Barkley is well aware of the strong potential of the Warriors with Duncan joining, coupled with Steve Smith's good performance on the three-point line, even because of his age, he no longer wants to score horribly before. hand, but he can still complete his task very well!

"Guys, this league is like this, I like the arrival of these guys!" Barkley's first statement made the rest of the players express their views one after another!

Seeing the players agree with each other, Wilkens couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief!

"Okay, let's take a look at the tactical arrangement tonight!!" Wilkens interrupted the topic in a timely manner, and then explained the tactical coordination to the players.

At [-] o'clock in the evening, as the fans entered the arena in anticipation, two teams that had undergone trades and changed their lineups slowly walked out of the player tunnel!

"I hope Bruce's trade will bring us exciting results!" Rick Barry's eyes showed a hint of excitement, but his tone seemed a little worried!

"With the joining of Tim and Steve, the Warriors will instantly upgrade the strength of the inside and outside. Even though Steve's contract is regarded as a burden, his outside scoring is still very exciting!" George Lillard obviously welcomes the joining of the two, and he is very excited about this deal!

"I hope it's as you said!" Rick Barry still said with a little worry.

For Duncan, Barry has great affirmation, but after losing so many players, the Warriors will have an embarrassing vacuum at the center position!

Although Joel Prizbilla has been in a slow rising stage, after all, his existence has contributed a lot to the Warriors' bench!

Even if he can only get 5 points and 8 rebounds per game, it's just because of too little playing time!

Coupled with Hakeem Olajuwon's injury, the two rookies who can only play against the Eagles on the 17th will have a very big test for Ben Wallace!

"drop!!"

A whistle made all the fans look towards the court, especially for the Warriors who lacked so many players!

As players from both sides walked to the court one after another and began a series of short warm-ups, the Warriors' player status couldn't help but make the fans feel relieved!

"Charles, do you think we will win Greg's Spurs in this game?" Nowitzki was a little curious and asked Barkley, who was practicing shooting beside him.

Barkley subconsciously turned his head and glanced at the Spurs, which did not lack many players, and then said with great confidence: "Aha, why not? We are a frightening team!!"

"Hehe, this game is so exciting!" I don't know if Carter's departure made Nowitzki understand his future status, and he seemed extremely excited!

Afterwards, as the referee signaled the two sides to leave the field and prepare for the start of the game, both sides sent out their main lineups according to the previous instructions in the locker room!

After the Warriors suffered a big change in the lineup, they sent such a lineup respectively. The center is still Ben Wallace. After the lack of Olajuwon and Joel Prizbilla, he has a more important role. Tactical position, he will obviously only get very little rest time in this game!

After a fierce battle between power forward Nowitzki and small forward, Wilkens still deployed the more experienced Bruce Bowen. What worried Wilkens most was the position of shooting guard.

Even if the team has a lot of players who can play this position, Starks' current state and Gerald Wallace's lack of shooting make Wilkens have to use Dell after a brief struggle. The old pitcher Curry came in!

Point guard has always been a problem that the Warriors don't have to worry about. Even though Cassel has indicated that he will terminate the contract signed in 97 with an average annual average of about 350 million US dollars after the end of this season, he is still the Warriors. One of the best starters right now!

Compared with the Warriors, the Spurs have a more stable lineup. The center position is still dominated by Robinson. After Ken leaves, Popovich sends veteran Danny Ferry. After Smith, Malik Rose was finally mentioned by Popovich as the starter, the shooting guard was Charles Smith, and the point guard was Tony Parker, who was still a little confused before.

Judging from the lineups of the two teams, if the age factor is not considered, the Spurs should be more sophisticated, and the Warriors should be more flexible and passionate!

"drop!!!"

As the referee's whistle sounded, the main players of both sides walked towards the court with a little weird atmosphere!
