Chapter 126: Destroy, I'm Tired

"Boss, I think Danny Ferry's offer is good, but sending Stephen and Monta at the same time will have a great impact on the strength of the team..." Larry Riley hesitated and persuaded.

He thought the same as Danny Ferry, James will definitely stay in the Cavaliers, the three first-round picks sound good, but they are actually worthless.

If it weren't for the league's regulations that prohibit the trading of first-round picks for two consecutive years, Larry Riley believes that Danny Ferry would dare to trade all first-round picks for the next three years.

Zhang Yu said slowly:

"Promise him!"

"Okay, boss, I'll just refuse... what? Promise him?!" Larry Riley said in surprise.

"That's right, I promised him, we made the deal." Zhang Yu smiled slightly, "By the way, if I remember correctly, there should be more than 100 million short of the balance, right?"

"Yes, Monta and Stephen's combined salary is 800 million, while Varejao and Big Z's salary is more than 600 million. But it's just a small problem, and the knights can add a little cash, it's easy to solve ."

Zhang Yu pondered for a moment and said:

"They drafted a player named Danny Green in the second round this year. You ask if you can join this deal."

"Okay, boss, Danny Ferry should accept this condition...just don't you have to think about it again?" Larry Riley said in a daze.

He still couldn't believe that Zhang Yu made the decision so quickly.

This is sending out the No. [-] and No. [-] players in the team. Shouldn't they make a decision after careful consideration?

"The Cavaliers finally offered this condition, we have to seize the opportunity." Zhang Yu laughed.

"Uh...this..."

"Do you still have any questions?"

"there is none left..."

"Then let's do this first, you hurry up and contact Danny, in case you have long nights and dreams, I'm waiting for your good news."

"Boss, I think..."

"beep--"

Larry Riley put down his phone silently, suddenly feeling physically and mentally exhausted.

Before, although Chris Cohan was stingy, didn't know the ball, and didn't care about the team...but he would not interfere in team affairs, and Larry Riley could still make decisions on trades and drafts.

Zhang Yu knows more about football than Chris Cohan, and he can even be said to be one of the people who understand football the most. Otherwise, he would not be able to win two NCAA championships, but he seems to be unreliable in doing things...

The first thing Zhang Yu did when he entered the home team was to send away Corey Maggette, who averaged 20+ per game, and then took office in person, leaving the well-known coach aside and becoming the head coach himself.

Fortunately, he has a good eye for people, and the three undrafted picks he discovered are all worthy of use.

But Zhang Yu then packed away Monta Ellis and Stephen Jackson, the number one and number two on the team, the last two Warriors players who could barely be called stars...

Destroy it, I'm tired.

When the transaction is completed, I will be criticized and ridiculed by the outside world!

"Ding--"

Just when Larry Riley was desperate, he received a text message.

He picked up his phone and saw it was from Zhang Yu:

"Contact Danny Ferry as soon as possible, and we must make a deal."

Larry Riley trembled and almost dropped the phone.

This also prompted...

Boss, don't you really know that we are losing money on this deal? !

...

Zhang Yu didn't know what Larry Riley was thinking. He put down his phone, hummed a little song and went to wash the dishes:

"Today is a good day~"

This deal seems to be a big loss for the Warriors, but no one would have thought that after the end of this season, James would bring his talent to the South Coast and go to the Heat to form the Big Three.

As long as the Cavaliers don't make it to the finals and win the championship, James' heart of leaving will not change.

Stephen Jackson and Monta Ellis seem to be not weak, otherwise Danny Ferry would not be stud, but their help to James is actually limited, and the joining of the two will at most allow the Cavaliers to go further in the playoffs A little bit, but it can't cause a qualitative change.

Looking at the league, there may be no one who knows James better than Zhang Yu.

James in the Cavaliers 1.0 period is unstoppable and powerful, like a heavy chariot, with abundant physical fitness and peak athletic ability. As long as he is given enough space, he can solve everything!

In Zhang Yu's previous life, James was able to succeed in the Heat and the Cavaliers, all of which relied on the shooters around him to open up space, maximize the power of his breakthrough, and put a secondary attacker to help him share the offensive pressure.

Only the Lakers' championship is an exception, but that is a special case. James has top stars like thick eyebrows around him.

The entire league knows that James needs to be paired with a shooter.

And Monta Ellis and Stephen Jackson can barely be counted as second-rate stars. In the playoffs, they are not even stars, and they are far behind Big Eyebrows and Irving.

The data obtained by the number of shots on a bad team will not work in the playoffs.

During the regular season, the Cavaliers may become stronger than before because of two more scoring points, but in the playoffs, on the top stage, it still depends on James.

And Monta Ellis made 30.8% of his three-pointers, Stephen Jackson was very daring to shoot, and he was more on time than Monta Ellis, but only 33.8%...

When the two stand outside the three-point line, James will find that today's inside line is still so crowded, and the people who double-team him are still so enthusiastic...

And if the ball is handed over to two people to play, they can abuse the dishes, but they are not so reliable when fighting tough battles.

At that time, James should go or go, and the Cavaliers' draft picks will become very valuable!

...

The next day, the transaction between the Warriors and the Cavaliers was quickly completed and quickly became known to the outside world.

People are very surprised. It has only been less than five days since the Warriors put Monta Ellis on the shelves. Many teams are still testing the reserve price of the Warriors. As a result, the transaction ended so abruptly, and The Warriors also included Stephen Jackson in the deal.

The major media rushed to report the news, which aroused heated discussions.

Barkley said:

"For the Warriors, this is a stupid deal. The team with James, the draft picks are crap. Larry Riley should go to the farm to herd cattle instead of sitting in the general manager's position and sending the team for nothing. quality assets."

Even Bill Simmons wrote:

"...Congratulations to the Cavaliers! Danny Ferry finally did the right thing. Although the Cavaliers' center is still too old, they got rid of the big Z's contract and got two strong players. Stephen Jackson's experience and Monta Ellis' scoring can help them go further in the playoffs, I give the Cavaliers an A+."
