Chapter 434 Inquiry from the Bucks
Los Angeles.
Jerry Buss stuffed the fax in his hand into the shredder with a wry smile. Although he had a feeling of rejection when he handed over the transaction document to West, after all, if the other party looked at the old face For the sake of it, it is still possible to complete a deal with him!
Now, after receiving the final reply from the Warriors, Bass couldn't help but secretly sighed, staring blankly at the piece of paper that gradually became strips!
"Bang bang bang!~"
A knock on the door brought Bass back to his senses. He rubbed his brows and said in a concentrated voice, "Please come in!"
Kupchak pushed the door cautiously and walked in. After seeing the helplessness on Buzz's face, he couldn't help but secretly heaved a sigh of relief!
"Mitch, what's the matter?" Bass picked up the coffee cup on the table, took a sip, and asked with some doubts.
"Uh. I just want to confirm with you!" Kupchak smiled awkwardly, and after closing the door, he said urgently, "Have you made a final decision?"
Hearing the other party's question, Bass smiled wryly, then pointed to the documents that were still being shredded: "That's the final result!"
"Phew." Kupchak heaved a sigh of relief when he heard Bass personally confirm.
"The Warriors have no intention of trading with us at all. I hope that the rift between Shaquille and Kobe can be repaired as soon as possible!" Bass said a little depressed, and then frowned and pondered!
Kupchak looked at Buzz's pensive look, he didn't bother, and then left here!
At the beginning of this season, whether it is the management or the players of the Lakers, they all seemed to be shrouded in a huge black fog and negative emotions, and everyone seemed extremely irritable.
In this atmosphere, especially the most serious between O'Neill and Kobe!
Because of the foot injury, even though Bass has a great affection for O'Neill, his decision to refuse to undergo surgery last summer still made him a little unhappy.
Now, because of O'Neill's injury problem, coupled with Kobe's violent quarrel with him before, the relationship between the two suddenly entered an extremely embarrassing situation for Bass and other management and Phil Jackson!
If it weren't for O'Neal and Kobe's scolding in a media interview before, I'm afraid Bass would not take them out as a deal!
However, after experiencing the clarification of the relationship between the two before, it not only brought great negative news to the Lakers, but also made Buss suddenly have the idea of trading one of them!
Now, even if there is Phil Jackson playing a good job between the two, once the two core players of the team have huge differences and conflicts, it will be a nightmare for every team!
The refusal of the Warriors made Buss depressed, but also made him think secretly!
Since O'Neal and Kobe were brought into the Lakers, their combination has brought great influence and deterrence to the league.
The previous three consecutive championships pushed their combination to a great height!
However, now that the conflict between the two has become clear, not only does Bass feel sad, but it also makes him feel hurt by the two of them!
Over the years, Bass has used the convenience again and again to create a comfortable environment for the two of them, but as they deviated from his original arrangement a little bit, this made him feel very uncomfortable!
"Hehe, there are not many Karl (Mallon) and John (Stockton) in this league!" Bass laughed at himself, as if he had suddenly aged a few years, leaned on the chair lonely, and closed his tired eyes slightly. eyes!
After that, after the Warriors defeated the Wizards by a big score, they finally recovered the strong state they had at the start of the game.
Throughout the game in January, the Warriors ended the month's game with a wave of 5 consecutive victories in the second half!
The strong performance of the Warriors put great pressure on the Mavericks, who still lead them by half.
In this month, not only did the Timberwolves have a very good record, but the Mavericks, which had been performing well before, also started to exert their strength!
With all the games in January over and the All-Stars approaching, the league suddenly entered a cheerful atmosphere!
In this year's All-Star voting, the Warriors were astonishing, as many as three players were selected by the fans into the final list!
Except for Duncan and Nowitzki, what surprised Bruce and the Warriors the most was that Ben Wallace, who had been used as a substitute, was also selected into the roster!
Judging from the current votes, if Wallace's 80 votes are not surpassed by others, he will surprisingly enter the list of final Western forward players!
Now, Duncan and Nowitzki, with 98 votes and 95 votes, are ranked first and third among Western forwards respectively. If it weren't for Garnett's powerful 97 votes, I'm afraid the Warriors will Create a very shocking scene!
This season's All-Star Game will be held at the Philips Center, home of the Atlanta Hawks.
And this All-Star game, because of the rejection of Miracle Entertainment, the Eagles did not enjoy the luxurious treatment of the previous teams.
Before the start of this year's All-Star Game, Jordan, as one of the symbols of the league, whether he will retire this summer caused a lot of discussion in the league!
However, judging from his current All-Star votes, he doesn't have the votes to become the main player like last season with all the good players in the Eastern Conference!
It is precisely because of this that Iverson of the 76ers and Tracy McGrady of the Magic have made it clear in interviews that if Jordan fails to finally enter the main list, they will not hesitate to start. The position is given to the hero of the Bulls!
However, Jordan's answer is really interesting!
He not only rejected the two people's kindness, but also said very confidently, "I will use my own way to enjoy this All-Star event!"
Oakland.
Bruce sat on the sofa at home, looking at the newspaper in his hand. While blessing Jordan, he couldn't help but have a bit of anticipation and mixed feelings about whether Jordan would be announced in this All-Star Game like in his previous life.
This time, although he had heard some rumors before, after all, he had the experience of going to Chicago last time, which made Bruce already have some resistance!
However, all NBA players will be grateful for what Jordan brought to the Bulls and the league.
After feeling emotional for a while, Bruce couldn't help laughing wryly at another piece of news!
Since Yao Ming joined the NBA, he has received the attention of a large number of Chinese fans.
Although his current performance is already very good, after all, he is just a rookie!
Now, his votes alone have reached 110 million, which makes all NBA players and fans feel unbelievable!
"As expected of a national idol!!" Bruce murmured in a low voice, and put the newspaper aside helplessly!
"Jingling!~"
The ringing of the phone shocked him. After picking up the receiver, he heard a very familiar voice immediately!
"Mr. Bruce, hello!" Larry Harris said to the phone with a smile on his face.
"Aha, Larry, I haven't heard your voice for a long time!!" There was a strange flash on Bruce's face, and he greeted him very familiarly!
Hearing what Bruce said, the smile on Harris' face became brighter and brighter. After thinking about it, a trace of helplessness flashed across his face, and finally he simply stated his purpose!
"Mr. Bruce, you know we've had some problems recently!"
Hearing what the other party said, Bruce couldn't help showing a hint of amusement on his face!
Last summer, Cassel's request was not met by the Warriors. After the Bucks offered him a three-year contract worth about $1800 million, he readily joined this aging team!
This season, the Bucks have played so far, except that Cassel has scored an astonishing 19 points, 7 assists and 5 rebounds. Whether it is Ray Allen's amazing data, or The rise of Mike Reid has not been able to improve their record!
Although the Bucks are currently in the top eight in the Eastern Conference with a record of 14 wins and 19 losses, if they continue to play like this, even if they will enter the final playoffs, they will also appear in the fierce competition. Some problems and deficiencies!
In order to add more background to the team, after the owner of the Bucks had made a promise that he would get him right before next season, Larry Harris suddenly made up his mind to complete some deals with Bruce again!
"Hehe, your performance this season has been very good, I don't see any problems!" Bruce picked up the clear water on the table and said playfully.
"Uh."
Bruce's words can't help but make Harris feel depressed. If it weren't for the center position, they really don't have anyone, so he wouldn't seek a deal!
"Heh, you know we're in a bit of an awkward situation right now, so...if you guys are interested in Tony (Kukoc) Dan (Gazuric) and our first-round pick this year, I think we should be able to pull off a good trade!"
Larry Harris' bargaining chip can't help but make Bruce interested. Judging from the chips he is offering now, except for the addition of Gadzuric, whether it is Toni Kukoc or the first round pick this summer, it is very important for him All very attractive!
"Oh? Who do you need?"
Hearing Bruce's inquiry, Harris' face flashed with pain, and then he said extremely firmly: "Ben, we want Ben Wallace!!"
"Wow!!" Bruce finally understood why Harris was hemorrhaging. Although he had already felt it before, after all, the Warriors still have a lot of good players. Now that he heard Harris' asking price, he couldn't help feeling a little have no choice!
