NBA Backer King - Chapter 634
Chapter 634 D’Antoni ran away, and Nash will also run?
The second sister came to pick up the plane, got in the car and drove for a while, Lao Wang saw that the direction was wrong, this was the way home, and quickly asked: “It’s wrong, second sister, don’t go home, go to the hospital! Otherwise, your sister-in-law won’t blame me?”
“No mistake, Feihong was discharged home on the 7th the day before yesterday.” Arya laughed.
“Wow, is she so fierce now, she gave birth on the 5th and was discharged from the hospital on the 7th?” Lao Wang was really shocked.
“Haha, she went into the delivery room that day and walked in with her belly in her hands. Before we were ready outside, she came out after giving birth to her second baby. She came out by herself. The third baby was born so quickly.” Ya laughed.
“Brother Fei is so fierce!” Pharaoh said in admiration.
“Ha ha…”
Back at home, Lao Wang greeted everyone inside and outside the house.
“Dad, my younger brother is sleeping late. He sleeps all day long and cries when he wakes up. Come, I’ll take you to see him.” Zhou Zhou couldn’t wait to pull Lao Wang to see his younger brother.
“Zhou Zhou, didn’t you throw your brother in the trash can?” Old Wang asked after hugging Zhou Zhou and kissing him.
“Mom doesn’t allow me to hug.”
Zhou Zhouman said regretfully, hugged Lao Wang’s neck again, and whispered to his ear: “Father, let me hug you quietly later, I promise not to throw it in the trash can.”
“Zhou Zhou, do you still have dolls at home?”
“No, it’s all in the trash.”
“Well, Zhou Zhou, my brother is still young, so you can hug him later.”
“Father is as stingy as mother!” Zhou Zhou said with a small mouth.
The corners of Lao Wang’s eyes twitched, he really didn’t dare to agree to this request from his precious daughter.
Although Brother Fei is fierce, he still has to sit during the confinement period. It is not very hot in June, and the air conditioner is not turned on. He was chatting with Sissy’s mother casually, when he saw Lao Wang coming in, he hurriedly said: “Husband, I’m back, come and see Erbao.”
“Sister Liu, please take care of Brother Fei.”
“Should be.”
Old Wang and Sissy’s mother greeted each other, walked to the small crib next to the big bed and took a look. The little guy’s face had already grown up, he was quite obedient, and he slept soundly. He couldn’t help but gently touched it with his hand. Touch the little face.
Looking at it every week and Monday, I learned a lot, so I quickly stretched out my little hand and squeezed it.
“Whoah!”
This is all right, the room suddenly became lively.
“Well, Zhou Zhou, Dad brought you a gift, I’ll get it for you.” Looking back at Brother Fei, Old Wang got up and left.
“Dad, I’ll take it myself.” Zhou Zhou also moved quickly, and ran after him.
“These two, it’s hard for me to be quiet for a while.” Brother Fei complained.
Cissy’s mother quickly picked up Er Bao and coaxed her up.
Brother Fei took Erbao and looked at it. Zhou Zhou pinched two little red marks on his face, and he couldn’t help saying: “Little girl, I have guarded against her for several days, and she finally succeeded. In the future, Erbao He must have been bullied to death by her.”
She doesn’t plan to be born again in the future, this is the youngest, and I feel a little distressed.
“It’s okay, it’ll be fine when I grow up.” Sissy’s mother comforted her with a smile.
“Mom, who told you not to let me hug my younger brother?” Zhou Zhou’s little head suddenly poked in from the door, yelled and shrank back.
“Do I dare to let you hug me?” Brother Fei said angrily.
“Humph…”
Zhou Zhou’s coquettish snort sounded outside the door, and then gradually disappeared with the sound of running closely.
“Dad, Dad, come on, show me your trophy.”
At six o’clock in the afternoon, Dabao came home from school, and opened the door yelling before he entered.
“Dabao is out of school?”
Lao Wang walked out of the gate with a smile, and took the basketball that Dabao suddenly threw over him.
“Dad, when I grow up, I will definitely be able to catch the ball with one hand. Come on, Dad, let’s see how far away it is?”
Dabao looked enviously at his father to catch his ball with one hand, then stretched out his hand, and compared it with Lao Wang, but the result was too far behind, and he couldn’t help but said in frustration: “Dad, my hand Bigger than my senior classmates who are the same height as me, why are you so far behind?”
“You’re only 8 years old, what’s the rush?” Pharaoh laughed.
His eldest son’s physical talent is not bad. Specifically, after combining Fei Ge’s genes, his static talent is not as good as him, and he is definitely not as tall as him. His arm span and palm length and width should not be as abnormal as him, but dynamic Talent is stronger than him.
More flexible than him, with better flexibility, balance, and coordination, stronger speed and explosive power, and his strength should also be very good.
Before Dabao became pregnant in 1996, with the help of the system, his athletic talent was already very good at that time, and Dabao inherited his dynamic talent at that stage.
But because he is not as tall as him in the future, it is impossible to play a center forward. It is estimated that he will not be able to play a power forward, and at most a small forward. Therefore, whether Dabao’s athletic talent will reach the NBA level in the future is unknown now. Good quality, but very average in the NBA.
Just as they were about to have dinner, the District Family Planning Bureau came to the door, and the leader personally led the team.
“You guys came here on a whim, right? As soon as I got home, you guys came to the door. But it’s not bad, you didn’t bother my wife when I wasn’t at home.” Old Wang laughed.
“No way, old K, this is a national policy.” The leader said embarrassingly.
Watching a woman take out a calculator, is this to settle accounts? Lao Wang quickly waved his hand and said, “Don’t worry, leader, you can say the number, and you should be fined as much as you want. We all pay attention to people. If you give less than a dime, I will write the word Wang backwards.”
“OK OK.”
The leader quickly signaled his staff to put away the calculator.
Family Planning Bureau is still trying to save face. It doesn’t count on personal income, but on the average annual disposable income of the capital. The maximum fine is eight times, and it doesn’t cost much.
…
On the evening of June 10th, US time, in a bar in New York, Knicks general manager Isaiah Thomas, the smiling assassin, was sitting and drinking with Suns coach D’Antoni.
“Mike, on behalf of the Knicks and Mr. James Dolan, I sincerely invite you to join the Knicks.” Thomas smiled sincerely.
D’Antoni was a little excited. At this time last year, he was still humbly submitting a cover letter to Colangelo Jr., but now, he is the best coach in the league, the coach of the championship, and the general manager of the Knicks, the largest team in the league. Offered an olive branch.
“Isaiah, I have some requests,” he said.
“Please speak.” The smile on Thomas’s face was in full bloom, and he knew that no one could resist the temptation of the Big Apple City.
D’Antoni suppressed the excitement in his heart, and said seriously and seriously: “I hope to play real running and bombing in the Knicks, not the nondescript running and bombing of the Suns. It is real running and bombing, the exciting one. , can complete an offensive blitzkrieg in seconds.”
“That’s exactly what we were hoping for.” Thomas also looked excited, with a big smile.
“I also hope that the team will configure the lineup according to the requirements of the running and bombing tactics.”
“Of course, lineup matching tactics should be used. I’m not an amateur, haha!”
“I hope to get Nash, Stoudemire, and Marion. They can execute my tactics perfectly.”
“Mike, this idea is great! It will allow us to form the perfect run and gun lineup, but also can hollow out the Suns. OK, I will contact their agent immediately. Also, Mike, you are their mentor, I hope you can Get in touch with them in person, come out and convince them, and help the team get them.”
“OK.”
…
“Brian, I’m sorry, but I can’t re-sign with the team.”
On the 11th, D’Antoni called Colangelo Jr.
At the beginning, Colangelo didn’t trust him, so he only signed a one-year contract, and even told him clearly that if he couldn’t satisfy Old K, the team would fire him at any time.
In the first 50 games of the old K’s suspension, he played quite successful running and bombing tactics. He believes that as long as he is given a chance and the tactics are better adapted, he can continue to improve the team’s record.
But unfortunately, with the return of the old K, running and bombing has become a defensive counterattack tactic.
So in fact, he was not happy in the Suns, he was even very aggrieved. When he made this call, he even had a feeling of excitement. I won’t let me run away here. team.
“why?”
Little Colangelo couldn’t understand it. He just led his team to win the championship and won the title of best coach. Why did D’Antoni choose to leave?
“I’m sorry, Brian, I still hope to realize my basketball philosophy.” D’Antoni said confidently.
Little Colangelo shook his head with a wry smile, and no longer persuaded him. D’Antoni is no longer the D’Antoni who applied for a job at this time last year, but the best head coach in the league last season with the halo of a championship. .
Hung up the phone, Colangelo Jr. is very troubled now, because not only D’Antoni, but also Nash’s contract extension also has problems, big problems.
After thinking for a while, he picked up the phone again and dialed Nash’s cell phone. Unfortunately, it is still the same as before, shutting down.
Nash’s contract is over, and now he is a completely free agent. The Suns need to negotiate with Nash on a contract extension, but after the celebration ceremony, Nash left Phoenix, his phone was turned off, and he could only be contacted by his agent, Bill Duffy.
He had a bad feeling, because he hoped to renew his contract with Nash in advance during the season, but was rejected by Bill Duffy, and was rejected three times in a row.
He formally negotiated with Bill Duffy yesterday and offered a 5-year 52 million contract, but was rejected by Nash’s agent Bill Duffy.
According to the analysis of these situations, he believes that there is no other reason. Now most of the teams want to poach people from the Suns. No one wants to see the Suns win the championship again. There should be teams that are poaching Nash, and Nash should have left. The Suns thought otherwise the phone wouldn’t shut down.
In fact, Colangelo Jr.’s analysis was very correct.
The Lakers have contacted Bill Duffy, and Kupchak offered Nash a 4-year 56 million contract.
Kupchak thought very clearly that if Nash was dug, it would not only weaken the strength of the Suns, but also strengthen the Lakers’ No. 1 position, killing two birds with one stone.
Moreover, the Suns are currently difficult to trade. As long as Nash is poached, it will be difficult to trade for an All-Star point guard. As long as the Suns are poached, the Lakers’ most powerful opponent in the West may lose some Competitiveness.
Not only he thinks this way, but other teams that offer trades to the Suns also think this way.
And Colangelo Jr. is also very aware of this. This is where he has a headache now. The first person to be dug should be Nash.
No, it should be the second, the first is D’Antoni.
He doesn’t want to let people go or trade, but if a player wants to leave, it will be very troublesome. He can’t force him to stay. This will seriously damage the reputation of the Suns. No star will come to the Suns in the future.
And a completely free agent like Nash, whose contract has expired, is even more troublesome. He can leave without paying attention to the Suns.
Now he is very clear that with winning the championship, the Suns are also in trouble, because a powerful All-Star like Nash has already won the championship, so his pursuit will change, and the contract will become The most important point, if the Suns can’t offer him a satisfactory contract, leaving is the most likely.
He is very clear that such troubles will continue to appear in the future. Stoudemire, Marion, and even Josh Howard and Zhu Fangyu may also be spotted by other teams.
The people around old K have won the championship. Even if the contract has not yet expired, they still have more pursuits, such as team status, tactical status, playing time, shots, possession of the ball, and so on.
Beside old K, all these things have been suppressed, and now as the team wins the championship and the value of players increases, their pursuit of these things has also been greatly improved. They are no longer satisfied with their current status and have more demands. .
Fortunately, Stoudemire is still on a rookie contract, as are Josh Howard and Zhu Fangyu, leaving only Marion.
But Marion only signed a big contract last year, which is fairly stable, and he doesn’t have the ability to hold the ball, so there is no requirement for the possession of the ball. His agent only suggested that the team should increase Marion’s shots to ensure playing time. Other issues are temporarily didn’t show up.
Calculated, the team is most likely to lose now is Nash.
…
At this time, Nash was with Bill Duffy. He did not leave Phoenix, but he was ready for vacation.
The Suns gave him a contract extension, and the Lakers also gave him a bigger contract, 52 million in 5 years and 56 million in 4 years. The gap is very big, 3.6 million less in one year. A choice is made.
In addition, there is another very important reason. In the Suns, his organizational ability has been greatly restricted, and he has no status in positional warfare. However, the Suns mainly play positional warfare, and small ball tactics account for at most. to half.
Even, not to mention the real small ball tactics, it is to play fast break when defending and counterattacking.
But he doesn’t really want to go to the Lakers, because the Lakers have Kobe, a shooting guard who has very high requirements for the ball, or the number one shooting guard today. If he goes to the Lakers, can he control the Lakers’ ball possession? Not too possible.
“Bill, you can contact other teams.”
“OK.”
After a careful discussion with Bill Duffy, Bill Duffy decided to find another team. He very much hoped that Nash could leave the Suns and stay with the old K. He had no future. All the stars belonged to the old K. not available.
The next day, on the 12th, Nash was preparing to take his family on vacation, and the luggage was packed, when D’Antoni suddenly came to visit.
After chatting for a long time, D’Antoni got to the point and asked: “Steve, you are my favorite point guard. Now that the contract is over and you have won the championship, what do you think? Do you still plan to stay?” Are you by Old K’s side?”
Nash thought for a while and said: “My agent encouraged me to leave. He thought I needed more space, and beside Old K, there was no space I needed.”
D’Antoni smiled and said: “You know, I think so too.”
“real?”
“Yes.”
Nodding, D’Antoni said: “For a long time, the media has believed that Old K has seriously suppressed the development of the players around him, from Ceballos back then to you, Stoudemire, and Marion, all have been suppressed by him.
Look at Ceballos, as soon as he left the Suns and K’s side, he became the Lakers’ leading scorer and was consecutively selected as an All-Star.
And beside old K, does he, you, you, have that room for development? No.
I don’t deny the strength of old K, he is really too strong, but just because he is too strong, his existence seriously suppresses your development.
In the Suns, he is the sun, and you are just stars. Under his light, you have no chance to shine.
He is like a black hole again, devouring everything, the possession of the ball, shots, playing time, everything, he is the first priority, you can only eat what he does not want, the remaining resources. ”
Nash kept nodding unconsciously. What D’Antoni said touched his psychology. Before the old K came back this season, his statistics were so good. He was the core of the team and controlled everything. But once the old K came back, his statistics It just slipped, and the tactical status is gone.
He likes D’Antoni’s running and bombing tactics very much, and thinks that is the most suitable tactic for him. Unfortunately, he only played for half a season, and he still misses the running and bombing tactics very much.
“Mike, what about you, are you still planning to stay?” He asked suddenly.
D’Antoni shook his head with a smile and said, “No, I rejected the management’s contract extension yesterday.”
“real?”
Nash was surprised and hurriedly asked, “Then where are you going?”
“A big city, New York.” D’Antoni said with a smile.
“Knicks?” Nash was surprised again.
D’Antoni said: “Yes, I have talked with Isaiah Thomas, and even had a phone call with Mr. James Dolan.
They promised me a lot, including respecting my opinions on the construction of the team lineup. They were very interested in my running and bombing tactics and hoped that I would take the running and bombing to the Knicks. They very much hoped that you would play in New York. ”
“I?”
Nash was instantly moved.
Big Apple City, the largest city in the world, the largest football market in the league, who doesn’t yearn for it?
D’Antoni said sincerely: “Yes, Steve, come with me, you are the most suitable point guard for running and bombing, you also like this tactic, you and I will join forces to create our own running in the Knicks Age of Boom, what do you think of the idea? Excited?
Yes, as long as you nod now, the Knicks will immediately send you a big contract that satisfies you. They have a lot of money. ”
“Hey, let me think again, Mike, let me think again, I need to discuss it with Bill.”
Half an hour later, Bill Duffy rushed to Nash’s house. After the three of them discussed, Bill Duffy officially notified Colangelo Jr. that Nash refused the Suns’ contract extension.
“Headache!”
When Colangelo Jr. received the notification, he knew that the team should find another master.
