Chapter 177 The finals start

In the Eastern Conference Finals G3 and G4, the Raptors won two consecutive games and successfully won tickets to the finals.

The situation for the Lakers in the West is also very good. They have already won the match point 3:0 and may eliminate the Nuggets at any time and meet with the Raptors in the finals.

The biggest problem with the Nuggets is that there is no problem. This team has helped a lot and won many outstanding players because of Conbu.

In the regular season, everyone played smoothly, but at the critical moment, no one could stand up.

Martial Saint is an extremely important combat power in the Nuggets, but after all, he is not the kind of offensive star who can make a final decision.

"Kong, we won't be able to defend our title this year, right?"

"Just like the Bull's Second Dynasty Journey, it was ended by us."

Sha Lun said worriedly.

He has been having trouble eating and sleeping these days, and always feels that something big is going to happen.

"You underestimate our lineup too much. With such a powerful lineup, why should the Lakers win?"

"Don't worry, we are not bulls, and no one can end our dynasty journey."

"Also, what did you do when I asked you to do?"

Conbu comforted Sha Lun.

"Oh, it's hard to deal with."

"The other party just won't let go. No matter what price I give, they just won't agree."

"I even promised to trade all our second team to them and then only exchange for their No. 1 pick, but they still refused."

Sha Lun sighed.

Kong Bu frowned, is it so exaggerated? He was willing to take out a complete set of second teams to trade the No. 1 pick, but the other party still didn't let go.

You should know that if the Raptors' second lineup really has value, it is actually not much worse than the first lineup.

The main reason is that this second team is extremely cheap. The core Nash and Dampier have an annual salary of less than 10 million US dollars. In addition, Odom, Marion and Lagabe are all rookies, and the contracts are even cheaper.

It's unreasonable.

"Forget it, I'll call Billy King."

Kong Bu had no choice but to do it himself.

In the afternoon of the same day, Conbu called Billy King, general manager of Philadelphia 76ers.

"Old guy, isn't there really no room for negotiation for the No. 1 pick of the guys?"

Kongbu is close to the Tao.

Although he and Billy King have no grudges, they have no friendship at all.

"Kong, I advise you to stop dreaming."

"Everyone knows that Yao Ming will be the next Shake O'Neal. No, I have a feeling that he will be a greater center than O'Neal."

"You know that O'Neal does not have the soft shooting feel and free throws like Yao Ming."

"You should know that the Knight gives that Irgoskas the maximum salary, right? I think Yao Ming is worth at least three times, no, ten times more than Irgoskas."

Billy King didn't even politely with Kongbu, and directly told Kongbu not to dream.

Kong Bu suppressed his temper. He knew that this time was not the time to fight with the other party.

"Old guy, Yao Mingming is really good, but he is a rookie after all."

"That is, the combat power is not much stronger."

"It's better to do this. I can make the decision to give you five players in the Raptors, any five players, and give you no less than four first-round picks."

Kong Bu took the initiative directly, and such a price tag is simply unheard of.

The players in the Raptors are all treasures in the eyes of other teams. Kong Bu is now in the top leader and wants to bring out five.

In addition to players, Kong Bu also has to give at least four first-round picks.

Because the 2000 draft was the Little Year, Kong Bu has accumulated a lot of future draft picks and can be traded at this time.

Billy King said he was panicked by the chips he gave Kong Bu directly.

This price is so tempting that he can't say no to refuse.

He also knew that Kong Bu was right. No matter how strong Yao Ming was, he was just a newcomer after all.

If you get five players from the Raptors and choose five players at will, combined with Iverson and Ratliff, the 76ers' combat power will reach an extremely terrifying level. They are not only very promising to win the championship

There is even more hope that like the Bulls or the Raptors, it will build a dynasty of its own.

"This..." Billy King hesitated.

When Kong Bu saw that there was a chance, he immediately started to increase his bid, "Six!"

"Select any six Raptors players to you, and give you six future first-round picks. I only want the No. 1 pick in your hands."

"We Raptors have the best blue-collar center in the league, at least the top three super power forwards, first point guards, top 3D champion puzzles, top pass control masters, super outside gates that can lock Jordan, like Danpier

The super center, the strongest forward player in the league."

"As long as you agree, I can satisfy any wish."

Kong Bu has done everything he can to take over Yao Ming.

He has only one purpose now, that is, he must not let Yao Ming play under Larry Brown. In order to achieve this goal, he can pay any price.

Billy King almost said he was crying, how should he refuse this price?

As long as you are a normal person, you will definitely not be able to refuse this price.

Unfortunately, although the boss of the 76ers in Philadelphia is not in charge of the matter, he, as the general manager, is not the helmman, and many things have to be discussed with Larry Brown.

"You wait for my news first. I have to discuss this with my colleagues."

Billy King hung up the phone directly, probably because he felt that he had Kong Bushi in his hand that he was sure to win the No. 1 pick, so he seemed a little arrogant in his attitude.

Kong Bu's heart skipped a beat and discussed it with his colleagues? Wasn't that just discussing it with Larry Brown?

Obviously there is little hope for this.

Can Larry Brown make Conbu come true? Obviously impossible.

...

Two days later, the Lakers swept and eliminated the Nuggets and received tickets to the finals.

A press conference was held by the Philadelphia 76ers.

Under normal circumstances, the 76ers did not make it to the playoffs, so they did not have the face to hold any press conferences, which was not embarrassing enough.

But this time the situation is different. After they got the No. 1 pick, they were confident.

Although the team's combat power is very trash, luck is also part of the combat power. The 76ers' luck is indeed ridiculously good.

"We were lucky enough to draw the No. 1 pick, which may be God's will."

"God wants us 76 people to rise, and no one can stop us."

"We are ready to sign Yao Ming and are ready to do a big game in the new season."

"Allen Iverson is very excited at the moment. As a No. 1 player, anyone who can become a teammate with a super center will become excited."

Larry Brown sat on the stage, holding the microphone, her face full of unconcealed pride.

He won the No. 1 pick for the 76ers. In his opinion, this is God helping him through the difficulties.

"Although Yao Ming is just a newcomer and has not played in an NBA game, I am already sure that he will be a historically-level super center that surpasses the four centers."

"Speak up, you may not believe it."

"Kong Bu called me. He was willing to take out six core players of the Raptors and choose at will, plus six first-round picks to trade Yao Ming."

"But we rejected it."

Billy King also boasted at the press conference.

The reporters in the audience didn't believe it at all. How could such a bargaining chip be possible?! You, Billy King, are afraid that you are not dreaming.

Kong Bu is not a fool. He would give away such scary chips for the first prize?

As for the chip he mentioned, let alone a No. 1 pick, if he sold it to the Knicks, the Knicks might have to take out a real money that is enough to buy a team.

"Don't you believe it?"

“It’s a pity that I didn’t record it.”

"It's true, Kong Bu really begged me to sell him the No. 1 pick and gave him such a bargaining chip."

Billy Golden Eye saw that the reporters didn't believe what they said and shouted directly.
