Chapter 1256 1255. He is probably a psychopath (810 for monthly votes)

Salary increase!

Liu Mang was of course happy. He was worried that it might affect the team's salary space, but Price told him not to worry about it. Anyway, the new terms would not start until next season and would not affect this summer.

Liu Mang returned to the villa in Miami and continued to enjoy the last few days of leisure time. On the night of the 30th, Liu Mang was going to fly to Italy. A golden phoenix flew out of the Italian chicken coop. Andrea Bargnani became the NBA No. 1 draft pick. Some basketball fans in this football country saw the hope of their country's basketball. The basketball atmosphere was high, and Liu Mang was going to take advantage of the popularity.

There were still two nights left to spend with his family. Liu Mang put aside those troubles and watched TV with his father.

Then... this sleepless night...

The weirdest thing this summer is here...

After the finals, there was either no news or big news that was earth-shattering.

This time, another earth-shattering thing happened, and it was related to the Hawks again!

Yahoo Sports reporter Adrian Wojnarowski broke a shocking news!

The Hawks tried to trade for Kevin Garnett from the Timberwolves!

When Liu Mang received a call from McGrady, he spit out a mouthful of water!

Then Schwartz called, but Liu Mang was still not sure.

Liu Mang quickly turned on the computer and saw the news that quickly occupied the headlines of major sports websites.

"The Atlanta Hawks sent Andre Iguodala, Jose Calderon, Josh Smith, Rasheed Wallace, the 2008 unprotected first-round draft pick, and the 2010 lottery-protected first-round draft pick to the Minnesota Timberwolves to apply for a trade to get Kevin Garnett."

Liu Mang was stunned by this news!

But the more shocking thing came. Less than half an hour later, new news came out. The Timberwolves...rejected...

Indeed, if they wanted to get Garnett, such a bargaining chip was scary, but not excessive. Compared with the bargaining chip that the Celtics used in the summer of 2007 to trade for Garnett, who was one year older, it was about the same. At that time, the Celtics gave half of the team resources they had accumulated for five or six years to the Timberwolves, and that was when Kevin McHale was still there.

Josh Smith is good, but only relatively. In the original time and space, in 2013, the Hawks tried to trade Josh Smith for Gasol, but the Lakers refused.

At that time, Gasol was 33 years old, and his statistics were the lowest in his career, averaging 13.7 points, 8.4 rebounds and 4 assists per game. Josh Smith was at his peak, averaging 17 points, 8.4 rebounds, 4.2 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.8 blocks per game.

Whether it is talent or strength, Josh Smith will find it difficult to reach the height of Gasol throughout his life, let alone Garnett.

Josh Smith is definitely better in terms of physical fitness, but talent is not just physical fitness, but also in terms of basketball IQ and the use of the body... Although Josh Smith has received more targeted training in the Hawks, his ceiling is obvious.

But even so, Josh Smith has a great possibility, at least now it seems that there is a great possibility that he will become a poor version of Amare Stoudemire, and a poor offensive version with enhanced defense.

But the Timberwolves actually refused!

…

On the far west coast, there is a city of angels, a luxurious seaside hotel, and a dark-skinned man is showing a complex and tangled mood at the seaside.

Once upon a time, he swore that he would never go to the Hawks, even if he was beaten to death, tortured to death, and never won the championship, and he would never join the thigh-hugging team.

Without him, they have won three consecutive championships. With him, even if they win the championship again, people will not think it has much to do with him.

But suddenly, the news was flying everywhere, and when his agent called him, the Hawks used chips that no team could refuse to trade for him.

Garnett was not calm anymore...

Playing with Liu Mang and McGrady, Garnett felt like he was going to the sky!

The best teammates he had ever had were Marbury during his rookie contract, and the old Madman and Alien. Even so, he made it to the Western Conference Finals.

Playing with the Maimang combination that won three consecutive championships...

Garnett felt that face...was not as fun as winning. They used half of the team...Although it was half of the substitute team that was used to replace him, these talented young people were used as bargaining chips, which made him feel respected enough.

Big city, rich team, superstars, championships to win...

Now whoever wants to stop him from going to the Hawks, Garnett will be angry with them!

But...

Half an hour later, Garnett's agent called again...

The trade was rejected by the Timberwolves!

Garnett was in ecstasy, but suddenly a bucket of cold water was poured down on him...

Garnett hinted to himself to calm down, he had never thought about going to the Hawks, who would want to go to a team that has won three consecutive championships...

Then a few minutes later, the agent called him again.

"Kevin, the Hawks have increased the bargaining chips..."

After the first plan failed, the Hawks persevered, they had a second bargaining chip, the Atlanta Hawks sent Andre Iguodala, Jose Calderon, Josh Smith, the unprotected first-round draft pick in 2008, and were willing to add Jason Terry.

When Garnett heard the news, he hung up the phone silently, and then began to writhe crazily on the beach. He was so high...

The Eagles are so sincere, what if he doesn't go? He must go!

Just when Garnett was so high, his agent called again, and the Timberwolves once again rejected the Hawks' trade application...

In just two hours, Garnett experienced the ups and downs of his life... The strings in his head collapsed, and he started roaring and dancing on the beach...

A passing child quickly hugged the adult's lap: "Mom, what's wrong with that uncle?"

"I guess he's a psycho. Let's go further away..."

If Liu Mang were asked to dub this scene, Liu Mang would sing: So exciting...

…

Price and the coaching staff are going crazy!

Is the Timberwolves front office stuck in the head?

Wouldn't they agree to such a bargaining chip? All this can be used to exchange for Duncan, right? If it weren't for Duncan's leg injury, they would all want to propose a deal with the Spurs.

"Boss, what should I do? It has been exposed now. The transaction has not been completed, and our team will be greatly affected." Coach Kruger said seriously.

"I don't know what kind of madness that damn McHale has!" Price was furious.

At this time Stockton interjected: "I think it's because of the Celtics..."

As soon as these words came out, the Eagles coaching staff and management immediately understood.

The stars of the Celtics are huge in the NBA, and many team managers are Celtic stars. Apart from the owner, Kevin McHale is the most powerful person in the Timberwolves' management.

Just when Price was about to scold the Celtics guys, the call came.

Price suppressed his anger and answered the phone. The person next to him looked at the caller ID, and the note was Suns general manager Steve Kerr...

After the Suns' playoffs, their previous general manager was fired, and Steve Kerr, who had been serving as a commentator, was invited to come to the Suns.

Price talked for a while, becoming more and more excited as he talked, and all the previous unhappiness was gone.

Price didn't expect that after being forced into a desperate situation by the Celtics, they would actually turn around!
