Chapter 367: Transforming the Supersonic Team II

Next is the power forward, and Bruce is going to make some work. Criverd Robinson and Cote Thomas are actually both able to trade. The former is too old. It can be said that there is not much problem in starting the game at the moment, but this time will not be long. The reason is that there is indeed a lack of a character in the power forward position. The latter is not much problem with the substitute, which is an optional role, and even if it is traded, it is just as good as it is.

The small forward position is the most troublesome thing for Bruce. Why? Because in the small forward position, Detrev Schramf, Dell Ellis is all veterans without even fresh blood. Bruce is also drunk with the veteran to support this position. However, it is still understandable if the team organizes the team with Iverson as the core. After all, the supersonics' right to take action is in the hands of Iverson. Except for occasionally shooting a few three-pointers to decide the victory or defeat, these two veterans are basically in defensive state at other times.

So Bruce is still familiar with these two veterans. Whether it is now or in his previous life, in his previous life, because most novels like to write about Supersonics around Supersonics, they specially Baidu's overall development and decline of Supersonics. It can be said that these two veterans returned to Seattle to contribute to Supersonics because of this Bruce. After all, Bruce still prefers players who are loyal to the team. Let's talk about whether they are strong or not. The key is attitude.

As for Kevin Gamble's words, Brewster checked that the contract was due this year. Considering his age, this guy basically has no transaction value. He will let him leave directly after the season is over.

As for shooting guard, Michael Finley will definitely be selected by Bruce for a trade. Michael Finley's offense is too strong. This guy is also a breakthrough player. With him, Iverson is not easy to operate, because Iverson also likes to break through. Both of them have broken through together, so it would be strange if they can cooperate well.

Doug Christie Bruce thought about staying for the time being. After all, Doug Christie is more experienced in defense, and with a local Seattle household registration, this is an absolute plus. It can be said that as long as he is willing to play on the bench, Bruce doesn't mind leaving him until retirement.

There is basically no suspense about the position of the point guard. Iverson will definitely not leave if he is not a seller. Terry Porter and Nate McMillan can lead the substitute to teach Iverson how to organize it. Iverson's organizational ability is really average, and it is no longer on the same level as his scoring ability, so it is still necessary to leave these two veterans to teach him. I didn't see that the point guards of the Bruce Han people also have Mark Jackson, a veteran who teaches Nash.

Next is Nate McMillan, who can't play for long, and Bruce mainly pays attention to his situation, because Nate McMillan will be the head coach in the future, and it seems that he is still good! So keeping him is what Bruce wants to see most. After all, there are very few players who have played for a team all their lives, and Nate McMillan is one of them. For this reason, the Supersonics retired his jersey. Babies like this must be kept in the team's "household"!

As for Chucky Atkins, the undrafted, Bruce would not trade him. It’s not that he has strong abilities, but on the contrary, his abilities are average. It’s not a big problem to play as a substitute. However, because there are already three players in the point guard, it’s a waste to keep him. It’s better to just leave him to Toronto. Larry Tanebaum is going to build a team in Toronto for a draft expansion, so I’m going to hand him over.

Although each team in the league can protect up to 8 of its own players (including restricted free agents) from participating in the expansion draft, each team must provide one player for the new team to choose.

But Bruce remembers that it seemed that in the 1995 expansion draft in his previous life (at that time, Vancouver and Toronto entered the league), the Orlando Magic did not put Darrell Armstrong, Anthony Event, Rodney Dent and Helt Hammingk on the protection list, but the Magic neither wanted to lose Darrell Armstrong nor Helt Hammingk. So the Magic exchanged their 1996 second round draft pick to Vancouver in exchange for Vancouver's No. 2 pick in the expansion draft. As Rodney Dent was picked by Vancouver, Darrell Armstrong and Helt Hammingk stayed.

In fact, Bruce is planning to trade his Han Chinese and Seattle Supersonics with Toronto in this way. There is no way to do this. Who made Bruce even substitutes very luxurious when configuring the teams of both sides? It wouldn't be a pity to give them to Canadians for free!

Bruce had already planned the deal between Chaki Atkins and Toronto. He was the only one idle person in the Supersonics who he would trade if he didn't trade, so for now, this guy can't leave for the time being. He must stay after the end of the season.

...

So, now the roster of Supersonic players Bruce has analyzed and roughly understood who can trade and who will stay. The rest is to choose players who are suitable for Supersonics teams with Iverson as the main playing style among major teams in the league.

Who are there?!

Soon, Bruce filtered the rosters of each team. I have to say that it really allowed Bruce to find several people. The number is not large, but it can definitely be seamlessly connected with this supersonic team.

First of all, the target Bruce wanted to trade for the Supersonics was Rashid Wallace.

Rashid Wallace plays as a power forward/center, nicknamed "Roaring Heavenly Lord". He is good at both offense and defense, and can be both inside and outside. A player like him should be prepared for the small ball era. He is tall, has a strong physical fitness, and has wild and delicate style. His offensive skills are very comprehensive, and his back-basket technology is also very high. He is fast enough and his three-point firepower is strong enough. He is also a good player in low-post offense. He has a straight-arm jump shot that can be stopped by anyone. His performance on the defensive end is surprising, especially the one-on-one top defense is quite excellent.

But one fatal disadvantage is that he is irritable and even a bad temper. He often acts too aggressively and reacts too much to referees' penalty and is punished to go off the court by referees. For this reason, he must hoard some substitutes at the power forward position.

The reason why Bruce first thought of Rashid Wallace was because of the emergence of the "Five Piston Tigers". These five people in his previous life were a big killer. There was no terrifying thing, only even more terrifying.

The configuration of the Double Wallace is absolutely shocking. Now that the Supersonics have a big loan, if Rashid Wallace comes again, they can form a Double Wallace combination in advance, which not only makes Bruce start to look forward to it.
