Players with their own systems are often more popular, because if such players are on the team, they will definitely enrich the team's style of play. For example, take this Sonics team. If the Sonics also have a player similar to Garnett

If there was a player like Te who was an "organizing center", then the Sonics would not be so passive in this game.

Although the "pick-and-roll tactic" is not outdated in today's basketball trends, and its weaknesses have not even been found, once this tactic is targeted by the opponent, it will be very uncomfortable to play, so this must be developed.

The third "tactical system".

Last season, Garnett may have been the representative of "bombarding" power forwards. There were a lot of such players in the league, but now that "organizational centers" are emerging, who can compete with them? You know, not everyone can.

Someone who is qualified for this "organizational center"...

If there is really a more famous "organizing center", it can be traced back to Jack Sikma and Dashuai Zhang, the leaders of the 1979 SuperSonics championship lineup. In the 1967-1968 season, Chamberlain averaged 8.6 assists per game and successfully

He was elected as the season's assist king. He also became the only center player in history to win both the scoring title and the assist title. He was also the originator of all organizational insiders and a true monument.

Nowadays, it is almost impossible to find such a "organizational center" candidate, so how can Garnett not be popular...

Especially now that the head coach of the Golden State Warriors, Rick Adelman, can't sit still for a long time. He now wants Garnett to come to the Warriors and even threatens the team's general manager with his position as head coach.

Al Attles requested a trade with the New York Hans and wanted to trade Garnett.

This is not difficult to understand. If there is such an absolute candidate for "organizing center", Rick Adelman can bring results no matter which team he goes to, but the prerequisite is that the player must be with him.

Just go...

As we all know, Rick Adelman's famous work is the "Princeton System", of course it can also be called the "Adelman System", and this guy can only play the "Princeton System" without knowing anything else.

So Garnett definitely has room to "play" in his hands, but...

Is Garnett so easy to trade? Obviously not, he is one of Bruce's "not for sale". Even the Warriors' general manager Al Attles gave Hans general manager Mitch Kupchak a

The phone is useless, Mitch Kupchak can't be Garnett's boss...

In fact, general manager Mitch Kupchak's job with the Hans is relatively easy to say the least, but difficult to say the least.

What's easy is that you don't have to worry about the draft. This is entirely the responsibility of owner Bruce. He is only responsible for daily transactions and internal team matters.

The difficulty is that the team's trading rights are never decided by the team itself, but the boss Bruce gives orders and he just executes them.

As a result, even some high-level people internally felt that Mitch Kupchak as general manager was dispensable. It would be better for Bruce to directly become the general manager. And everyone also felt that Mitch Kupchak was

He is completely Bruce's "horse boy", like an obedient "machine" with no personal thoughts at all.

Can you have any ideas? I don’t know who is paying the salary office!

Logically speaking, such a general manager is very useless. If I were in Mitch Kupchak's position, I would have no shame in staying any longer.

But Mitch Kupchak is so thick-skinned, what can you do?

Should we drive him away? He didn't do anything wrong, and he fired him for what reason...

Doesn't he, Mitch Kupchak, want to leave?

No, Mitch Kupchak also wants to leave, but it's hard to find a job now, especially since Bruce has never felt sorry for him in terms of annual salary, and even has the same benefits. If he changes teams and becomes the general manager, he

Will you still have these benefits? Can your boss still give you such benefits?

You definitely can't let it go. Besides, many general managers have been fired by their bosses for poor player trading, but this will not happen in the Hanren team. As long as the players designated by Bruce don't move, you can trade the rest of the players however you want.

trade.

Take the issue of trading Garnett as an example. Because Garnett is designated as "not for sale" by Bruce, Mitch Kupchak can only ask Bruce on the phone about his issue. As for whether to trade or not, that all depends on him.

As for Bruce himself, Mitch Kupchak will not take the blame...

So Mitch Kupchak was in a dilemma after getting the call.

There is no need to call the prince yourself to tell him. After all, it was not Garnett himself who asked to leave. Based on the principle of "not for sale", he would definitely not be willing to make this call.

But it wouldn't be appropriate not to call. After all, the chips offered by the other party were really good, and even he was tempted.

In the end, Mitch Kupchak decided to make this call. Not mentioning Garnett's matter, for such a big thing as the "rest order", Mitch Kupchak also had to report the "Blues No. 2 rest rule" to the prince.

one time.

…

Huaguo Mountain City

"...That's the way it is!" Mitch Kupchak reported to Bruce on the "rest order" these days.

It's okay that Bruce didn't listen. Once he heard that Stern actually named this rule after him, his teeth itched with hatred...

It was simply too much of a lie. Bruce originally thought that Stern was joking, but he didn't expect that this old man was serious. He is really a bad old man who can't take a joke at all...

Well, yes, I must find an opportunity to return to this place when I study in the United States next year!

(Retribution is Bruce’s true temperament)

Forget it, let’s not dwell on these trivial matters, let’s talk about the important things quickly.

"Then what punishment will the league impose on me or the team..." This is what Bruce is concerned about.

You have to know why the Timberwolves were fined draft picks in the previous life, and one penalty was five years of draft eligibility. Could this really not happen to Bruce?

Of course it's impossible. Bruce still knows the specific situation of the Timberwolves' penalty of draft picks. After all, there was a big fuss at the time. It is said that Joe Smith became a free agent in the summer of 1998. The Timberwolves reached an agreement with Joe Smith in order to avoid luxury tax sanctions.

A "yin and yang contract". The original copy of this contract is a written text for the league office to see. It was signed three times, with an annual salary of US$1.75 million in the 1998-99 season, an annual salary of US$2.17 million in the 1999-2000 season, and a total of US$2.17 million in the 2000-01 season.

2.25 million US dollars per season. The copy of the contract has not been released. Timberwolves boss McHale conspired with Joe Smith. As long as Smith is willing to join at a low salary for the first three seasons, he will receive a seven-year long-term contract with a contract amount of no less than

40 million US dollars, which can reach a maximum of 86 million US dollars. The copy of the contract is signed by Timberwolves owner Glen Taylor, Joe Smith and his agent.

In October 2000, the backroom operation scandal was revealed. The Timberwolves were severely sanctioned by the league office and were deprived of their first-round draft picks for the next five years (the 2003 and 2005 draft picks were later returned to the Timberwolves by the league) plus $3.5 million.

Due to the fine, Joe Smith was forced to become a free agent and signed with the Pistons for one year one month later.

It can be said that the free agent signed the contract because of the matter, but this has nothing to do with the draft pick. Why did Stern punish the free agent signing the contract with the draft pick? Isn't this wrong?

Anyway, your uncle Stern is very good at playing this kind of "Great Shift", but Bruce is afraid. According to Stern's characteristic of "showing off his talents", he is also afraid that his Han Chinese team will also be deprived of the first-round draft pick in the next five years.
