I Don’t Want to Be the Boss

One Thousand and Thirty-Eight. The Big Center of the Heat!

Back home, Lily Collins didn't ask anything about how Sun Ce had been playing in the past three days, just like the girlfriends or wives of his teammates. He had just won the NBA championship. In the American sports world, it is normal to go out and have fun.

Sun Ce actually saw the NBA 2011-2012 Western Conference Finals trophy in the Honors Exhibition Room... On the night he received the O'Brien Cup, owner Robert Pera gave the Western Conference Finals trophy to Zuo Goose as agreed, keeping his word.

Three days passed by in a flash, and the championship parade was over. More than 1.2 million people participated in this championship parade. Memphis has a population of nearly 700,000. According to statistics, 90% participated in the parade, plus other people in Tennessee. Nearly 400,000 people from the city participated, and more than 200,000 people from other parts of the United States and other countries and regions around the world participated.

This parade started after the Grizzlies won the third game. The Memphis City Hall and the Tennessee State Legislature have begun organizing security, B&B and hotel operations, almost exhausting local political officials, police departments, and security companies. The United States The federal army participated in the maintenance of public security, but they also made a lot of money. The hotel industry, commodity retail, catering industry, aviation industry, etc. all made huge profits. According to incomplete statistics, the number of people attending this parade in Memphis and cities surrounding Memphis increased by nearly $500 million in revenue.

Although the Grizzlies themselves did not make any profit from the parade, but instead incurred a net expenditure of more than $15 million in parade expenses, awards to fans, and bonuses to players and team personnel, but Robert Pera is happy, and it's generally profitable.

According to media reports, as long as the Grizzlies can keep Sun Ce, advertising sponsorship for next season will be significantly increased, and the city hall and state assembly will also give the Grizzlies more support.

Sun Ce resumed training on the 26th, the day after returning home, and began to use the new training section "Persistence at Four in the Morning" to practice three-pointers, left-handed dribbling, and of course, mid-range shooting and high and low post skills. Didn't fall behind, kept training.

When I was still playing in the playoffs, although I didn't have the opportunity to use this new training method, my left hand didn't fall behind in ball control. After having "Left and Right Bow Level 1", Sun Ce trained his left hand to dribble, just like he trained his right hand to dribble three years ago. The feeling is the same, and the improvement is very fast. After yesterday's parade, the team's last dinner of the season, and when he went home to practice dribbling in the evening, his left-hand dribbling naturally broke through to the B+ level, reaching a near-first-class level. level.

This surprised Sun Ce. You must know that Durant, who was in the fifth year of his career last season, only had a good ball handling level at the B level.

And after acquiring the skill of shooting left and right bows, Sun Ce feels that his left hand is completely different from before. If he wants to play with a gun, there is no difference between his left hand and his right hand...

Seeing the progress in ball control, Sun Ce got up at three o'clock in the morning today and started another day of training very excitedly.

At 6 o'clock,

After completing the two-hour training requirement at four in the morning, Sun Ce returned to the room and took a shower. At about seven o'clock, he was called downstairs by Lily Collins for breakfast.

While eating breakfast, Sun Ce asked again: "You two are going to pick up my parents? Do you really don't want me to accompany you?"

Sun Ce's parents have settled their family matters and their visas. They arrived in Beijing yesterday, U.S. time, and took a direct flight from Beijing to Memphis early this morning to come to Memphis.

Lily Collins responded: "You don't have to worry. I have had a video call with my uncle and aunt a few days ago, and we are going to meet the British ambassador. He will bring people to Memphis at noon to help my uncle and aunt host the Olympics." It will definitely take a lot of time to obtain a tourist visa. Don’t you still have to go to the arena to discuss drafting and trading with the team? Lerina and I are going to pick up our uncle and aunt.”

The itinerary was all arranged, and Sun Ce could only nod: "Okay, you have to pay attention to your health, Juanjuan, you have to take good care of your sister, you know."

Sun Ce really wanted to complain about asking the British Ambassador to the United States to apply for British tourist visas for two Chinese people... This operation could only be done so easily by Lily Collins, who has a powerful British father.

"Hmm, I heard my mother say that she fried rabbit for Juanjuan, and Juanjuan wants to eat it all!" Zu Ge became excited as she said that, Sichuan rabbit, her mouth watered just thinking about the taste.

"Hey, who said before that rabbits are so cute, how can they eat rabbits?"

"If I don't eat, others will eat it, so I might as well eat it with Juanjuan!"

"..."

After breakfast, Sun Ce left home and headed to FedEx Arena. After yesterday's championship parade, Jordan announced that he would quit his contract and would test the free market.

However, it is not that simple to test the free market. If you want to provide Jordan with a salary increase of 10%, you must use bird rights. Otherwise, you can only give an 8% salary increase. If the annual salary is tens of millions, four After a year's contract, the total salary gap between whether he has Bird Rights or not will exceed US$5 million.

Since Jordan chose to leave the team for a salary increase and playing time, he must have the highest salary increase.

Other teams also understand this situation, and many teams have been waiting for Jordan to break out of his contract after this season. Especially after the Grizzlies won the championship, many teams were sure that Jordan would break out of his contract. The 27-year-old Garfield Sol is about to enter his peak period, and Jordan's playing time with the team will definitely be further compressed. He has already won the championship and will not stay unless the Grizzlies trade Gasol.

Maybe Jordan will be stronger in the future, but Gasol's importance to the Grizzlies can be seen personally.

So, yesterday, after Jordan announced through his agent that he would opt out of his contract, the Grizzlies received sign-and-trade offers from 9 teams that night.

Some teams are willing to give role players, some teams are willing to give first-round rookies in the past two or three years, and some teams are willing to give draft picks.

This needs to be discussed carefully, and the decision should be made based on factors such as where Jordan is willing to play, what the team wants, and the space between the two sides.

When he arrived at the stadium, Sun Ce came to the office of General Manager Chris Wallace, and the team was already busy.

During the playoffs, Chris Wallace had actually started to be busy. He had already started preparing for his own draft tryouts, watching the joint tryouts, etc., and he had already started to evaluate potential trades and leaving the stadium after this season.

The draft will be held tomorrow, on the 29th. Sun Ce went to Chris Wallace's office, and the secretary gave him a bunch of information, all of which were first-round predictions for the late first round and early to mid-second round draft picks.

The Grizzlies only have one first-round pick in this year's draft, the 30th pick. However, since many players withdrew from the draft last year, this year's draft looks like it has explosive potential and combat effectiveness, and there seem to be many people to choose from.

However, Sun Ce was not very interested in flipping through the draft materials. He knew that the 2012 rookies only looked good, and the future success rate was actually not much higher than the two unpopular draft years of 2011 and 2013.

It is true that there are more talented players in 2012 than in 2011 and 2013, but whether talent can be transformed into strength is more important. In comparison, the genius aura of the 2012 rookies is too strong, and most of the rookies in this year are not as hardworking as those in 2011 and 2013.

Moreover, Sun Ce already had a goal, just a draft pick. Since he decided to stay, he already had a target to choose.

After writing down the first and second choices, that is, the candidate targets, Sun Ce put down the draft materials and started to read the news.

There have been quite a few things happening in the past few days.

The Warriors and Thunder have reached a deal. The finals are over, and the 11-12 season is over. After freeing up space, the Thunder got Ellis and Leonard. While sending Harden, they also gave the Warriors the 23rd pick in 2012. By attaching this season's draft pick, the two teams reached a deal in advance before the start of the offseason.

The Suns were reported to offer Dragic a 3-year, $22 million contract to bring Dragic back.

The Lakers began to sell Gasol and Odom, and began to contact teams such as the Thunder, Magic, Pacers, Warriors, and Timberwolves.

Kobe put aside his pride and took the initiative to contact Reggie Miller, and personally visited Riverside County, the central city of the Inland Empire metropolitan area in California, which is Reggie Miller's hometown.

According to people familiar with the matter, in order to have better cooperation with Paul, Kobe asked Reggie Miller to learn the techniques of catching three-point shots and running positions.

Seeing Kobe at this age, he still put down his face and went to seek advice from Reggie Miller, with whom he had an extremely bad relationship, in order to improve his personal strength or team cooperation, Sun Ce was also convinced. This guy just wanted to create trouble for his tyranny!

Ignore this guy. Sun Ce remembers that the 12-13 season was another peak of Kobe... peak on the offensive end. With Paul, Gasol and Odom, who performed well in the season that just ended, the trading value is high. The Lakers will definitely be a championship contender in the next two years. They are a very troublesome opponent, and they are not afraid of more trouble.

On the Spurs side, Kwame Brown jumped out of the 8 million contract for next season, but immediately renewed his contract with the Spurs for 3 years and 10 million... This operation made Sun Ce speechless. How good is the Spurs management?

Just when Sun Ce was browsing the news and waiting for the team management to have a meeting, a new transaction appeared!

Heat!

When Sun Ce saw the name of the Heat, he immediately clicked on the news.

There have been rumors that the Heat want to dig a center with strong athletic ability and excellent pick-and-roll. Sun Ce knows that the effect of James and Chandler's cooperation is very good, better than people think, and that is Chandler who is close to retirement. If the Heat really get Chandler or Bogut who are currently at their peak... Sun Ce thinks it's a bit scary!

However, after clicking on the news...

"Uh... LeBron wants to partner with Chandler and Bogut, and Pat Riley brings him a solitary testicle warrior?"
