Chapter 1257 1256. Another super power forward (910 please vote for me)

The Timberwolves rejected a bargaining chip like the Hawks, shocking the fans!

I was even more shocked than when I heard that Liu Mang, Tracy McGrady, and Garnett almost formed the Big Three!

Garnett made it clear that he wanted to leave, and the Hawks gave them a combination like Josh Smith and Iguodala that could serve as the core of the team, allowing them to avoid the process of ruining the game. They actually refused!

Obviously, no matter how you analyze it, you can't understand the choice of the Timberwolves management, because they can't get any other better chips!

Unless other players also trade superstars for Garnett, they will definitely lose money. No one is more suitable than Iguodala and Josh Smith, a pair of potential newcomers who have been together for two years, and there is also Rasheed Hua. Rice or Jason Terry, they all refused!

People have not yet recovered from the shock of the Timberwolves rejecting the Hawks' trade request. That night, another breaking news came...

The Hawks and the Suns reached a deal. The Hawks signed a one-year, $6 million partially guaranteed contract with Alonzo Mourning on a sign-and-trade basis, and signed a one-year, $3 million partially guaranteed contract with Brent Barry on a sign-and-trade basis. Plus Josh Smith, Jose Calderon, the Eagles' top-20 protected first-round pick in 2007, a 2009 lottery-protected first-round pick and $5 million in cash, you get from Shawn Marion of the Suns!

People’s first reaction is too decisive!

Even if the deal with other teams is rejected once, they will continue to discuss it later. The deal is just like doing business and requires bargaining.

The Hawks look determined to win, and they are riding a tiger with difficulty. People are waiting to see the show and see how far the Hawks can go for Garnett.

Then, in less than half a day, the Eagles changed the trade partner, Shawn Marion...

Indeed, compared with Garnett, Shawn Marion's salary is much lower, and it is also cheaper. The Hawks basically only used half of the chips used to trade Garnett to get Marion.

And soon the league's official website also updated the transaction application. After the two teams pass the team physical examination, the transaction will take effect.

This time it's the fans' turn to go crazy!

What about the promised soap opera?

They were all ready. The Hawks and Timberwolves were dawdling for a long time, but they just didn't go in... No, it was a back-and-forth test of each other. The Hawks looked like they were absolutely determined to Garnett, and Jason Terry Willing to give it away.

Why did you suddenly reach a deal with the Suns?

This made the fans who were looking forward to watching the show feel that their expectations were instantly dashed. That feeling was so maddening!

While others were waiting to see how crazy the Hawks would be and whether they would lose their minds over the Timberwolves' incredible refusal to trade, the Hawks looked like they had finished the game with the Suns without any hesitation. transaction...

Is this still the same Eagles team that was so angry that they wanted to send Jason Terry away? The Mavericks are ready to take advantage after the Timberwolves get a bunch of chips from the Hawks!

…

…

Liu Mang sat in the lounge, looking at Price, Coach Kruger and Stockton in front of him, with helplessness written on his face.

Indeed, if Garnett is acquired, the team will have a qualitative change. He + McGrady + Garnett + Kwame Brown + Prince will be more brave than the Universe Hawks. The moment he heard about the deal, his The emotions are mixed.

Think about it, a team with Rondo and Rasheed Wallace is bad enough, but it would be even worse with Rondo and Garnett.

But I'm definitely looking forward to it. Although I don't like being teammates with Garnett, if I want to continue to compete for the championship, Garnett is undoubtedly the best choice. Maybe I won't even use one. He is too suitable to play in the Eastern Conference and to be the best choice. The defense is at a crossroads. With him here, their three perimeter brothers, Kwame Brown, are all good at single defense, and Garnett is assisting in defense... Is there anything going on with other teams?

But the deal was rejected.

None of this matters anymore. Liu Mang has been flying back and forth between Miami and Atlanta in the past few days. His head is getting big. He doesn’t have to fly anymore. He has to go to meet Rasheed Wallace and Jason Terry does some psychological counseling...that is, drinking and calming down.

When he returned to Atlanta, Liu Mang analyzed it and found that the fact that Garnett was not obtained was probably because the Celtics were behind it.

There is another team that may win four consecutive championships, seriously threatening the Celtics and Lakers' status as the first and second strongest teams in history.

The Celtics can barely accept three consecutive championships, but if the Hawks get Garnett, they will most likely win four consecutive championships!

The Celtics only completed more than three consecutive championships in the 1960s. If a team wins four consecutive championships in the 21st century and wins three more championships in the future, Liu Mang must surpass Jordan. Not only the six championships, but also Jordan is invincible in many aspects. Just like Liu Mang won three consecutive championships, he did not feel that he was more accomplished than Jordan, who had just won the first three consecutive championships. On the contrary, I feel that there is a big gap between me and myself. There are so many scoring champions, first defense... and the great achievement of promoting the NBA to the world and turning basketball into a popular sport in the world.

Moreover, this achievement was achieved in 1992, which was Jordan's first three consecutive championships!

During the first three consecutive championships, Jordan was great, and during the second three consecutive championships, Jordan was a god.

The matter of Liu Mang and greatness…Has O’Neal ever been described as great?

Liu Mang and O’Neal were described as having unparalleled dominance at the point guard and center positions.

But if the Hawks win four consecutive championships, by the time they win the seventh championship, the team will definitely surpass the Bulls and become the third strongest team in history after Hu Kai.

Liu Mang must have won more than three championships in his career, while the Celtics have only won three championships since 1976. If he laid a foundation for the Hawks, the Hawks may threaten the Celtics’ position in the future. Many fans originally felt that the Celtics’ 11 championships in the 1950s and 1960s were not valuable enough. The Celtics only won three championships after the merger of the NBA and ABA, and 13 championships were won before 1976. After the merger of the NBA and the NBA, the Celtics’ competitiveness plummeted, and they were not able to dominate the East in the 1980s.

These complex factors have caused the Celtics’ celebrities, who consider themselves the No. 1 powerhouse in history, to start targeting the Hawks.

Liu Mang was also a little envious of the Celtics' legends, so united!

Liu Mang felt that Atlanta, where he was, was also one of the most famous cities in the United States. It had hosted the Olympics. Could he build such a powerful team one day?

Now he couldn't care less. Liu Mang was very annoyed!

Why is it another mess... But Josh Smith was traded for Marion... Although there were draft picks and Calderon and other extras, that was Marion!

Why did Liu Mang feel that it was hard to get angry?

Josh Smith might be able to reach Marion's level one day, but now, Marion is already a super power forward! Although he can't catch up with Garnett, he is also a very strong and good at running and defense. Excellent reinforcement!

"You have other trades." Liu Mang didn't want to ask so much, he was tired!

Coach Kruger breathed a sigh of relief and said to Liu Mang: "Ace, what do you think of Ron Artest?"

"..." Liu Mang covered his head in pain.

Rondo, Artest, Rasheed Wallace... How to play with this group of people together? We have to fight!

And, can you trade for Artest?
