Chapter 567 Hate Me
Jordan's studies of the Greeks began.
He didn't hide and hold tryouts with a lot of fanfare.
The Greek is only a rookie outside the lottery, and he made it like this, as if he was going to take him with the fourth pick.
Charlotte fans burst into tears.
The boss of their family wanted to become a wise king, why did he suddenly change back?
The change was too great for them to accept.
Everyone is waiting to see the joke. If Jordan really chooses Antetokounmpo with the fourth overall pick, good fans can laugh from the end of the draft to the end of next season.
Li Xing was so impressed with Brother Antetokounmpo.
If it weren't for the fact that their team was already well-equipped, he really hoped that the team would recruit this general.
Now, he can only fulfill Jordan.
Although Antetokounmpo will be very strong in the future, Li Xing is not afraid. No matter how strong he is, he will not be stronger than Durant and James.
Moreover, his shooting talent is extremely lacking.
For an impact player like him, if he doesn't shoot, there will be problems in offense.
Li Xing is sure of this point. Even if Brother Antetokounmpo and Lillard form a double star, and a powerful force will be formed to sprint towards them in the future, he will not be afraid.
The upper limit of these people is visible, but his upper limit is invisible.
Now that he has a score of 120 and can acquire a steady stream of skills, he really doesn't know what else can be difficult for him.
A few days later, the Raptors held a championship parade around town.
This is a tradition in the NBA, and every championship team has to come out and make a fuss.
After holding such a grand event for three consecutive years, the team may be tired, but the fans will not, they are very happy.
Finally, general manager Colangelo announced excitedly: "We will hold a parade around the city next year. Of course, we will come with the fourth championship trophy!"
"Raptors!"
"Raptors!"
"Raptors!"
The fans at the scene chanted the team's name, and the meeting ended.
Then there will be a long offseason, when each uniform team will show their skills.
The only task for the Raptors this summer is to find a replacement for Li Xing.
Aaron Gray is out of contract, and he's too old for NBA garbage time.
They need a young center in his prime.
This year, they have only one second-round pick from the Magic through Stephenson's deal.
It is another experiment to test the Taobao level of the uniform group.
In recent years, the Raptors have repeatedly been able to find good fighters from low-ranked draft picks, and those second-round picks selected by them have gained a foothold in the league.
Even if he is traded, he has integrated well into the new team.
Most second-round picks can only survive in the league for one or two years, and players who can complete their rookie contracts can be said to be successful.
And after playing the rookie contract, you can still get a second-round pick with a new contract, which can be said to be a great success in the draft.
Since Li Xing joined the Raptors, they seem to have opened their eyes, and they have won the generals again and again in the draft.
Now it's the draft again, and the outside world is looking forward to their answers.
Li Xing participated in the team's trial training throughout.
They tried out a large number of centers, and in the end, Snyder, Triano and Li Xing unanimously locked in Mike Muscala.
"Larch, you think he can too?"
"Indeed."
After trying out so many rookies, Muscala is the only one who catches Li Xing's eyes.
But his potential value is much worse than Gobert's.
It just so happens that this person can be used as an addition to the trade with Jordan, plus a second-round pick next year, he is not too bad.
Li Xing already had a plan in mind.
"It seems that we can report it."
"No, let's prepare a few more substitute lists."
"Makes sense."
After confirming the candidate, Li Xing left.
He returned to the Lincoln apartment and came to Purdue Jeanno's residence.
He needs to discuss this matter with Jano.
Before, he just recommended candidates for the draft. During the season, he interfered with the team's trade, but this time, he will personally propose a trade plan.
There is a huge difference here.
One is a player with amazing influence, and the other is a ball bully who tries to influence the team's operations.
While he's always right, who likes a player who meddles in front office operations?
"You said, if I propose this plan, what will the general manager who hates me think?" Li Xing asked.
Jeanneau said, "You don't need to worry."
"why?"
"You hold his handle in your hand."
Li Xing smiled wryly: "Are you going to take out your cards for this kind of thing?"
"Then do you know what will happen if he discloses your interference in the operation of the management to the reporter?" Jean Nuo asked.
Li Xing ate the rice cakes made by Dai Linsi, and said with a chuckle, "Do you think I care?"
"In that case, what else do you have to worry about?" Rang Huo asked.
Li Xing wasn't worried about anything, he just wanted to talk to someone, and he needed to make a final confirmation.
"Are you really not going to renew my contract?"
"I believe you are not doing it for money or for other reasons. Even if you want to leave, at least give me a reason."
Li Xing's words turned around. Last second, he was still discussing the team's draft, but now he directly gave Jean Nuo a carbine.
Jeannot never revealed where he was going.
"personal issue."
Jano said.
"when are we leaving?"
"After the draft is over."
"Why wait until then?"
"I want to see if Brian Colangelo will do what you say."
"You are really idle, don't you think I don't have enough troubles?"
Li Xing lay down on the sofa, feeling very helpless.
With his reputation, it won't be hard to get Colangelo to do what he wants.
With his vision, team reputation, off-court influence and the boss's respect, even if Colangelo pushes three obstacles, he will eventually follow suit.
The more Li Xing interfered, the more Colangelo hated him.
That's the problem.
Even if you are the actual boss, there is a person behind you who wants to hack you into pieces and looks at you with a smile every day. Thinking about it makes you feel chilly.
The eve of the draft
It's a nice, sunny day in summer.
Li Xing came to the door of the general manager's office: "Please inform Brian, I have something to discuss with him."
At this time, Colangelo was fighting a loyal fan of Li Xing online for [-] rounds.
He hasn't met such an opponent for a long time.
The stupid fans I met in the past were always irritated by his few words, like a grasshopper on the pot who only knows how to "fuck off Fuck", but this person is very good at debating, and he can't tell the difference after arguing with him for half an hour win or lose.
He is a professional, and the general managers of various companies do not lose out in verbal battles. How could he lose to a professional fan?
"Brian, Lucky is here."
"what?"
Colangelo was so startled that he almost dropped the notebook in front of him: "What's the matter with him?"
"I didn't say it."
Colangelo said, "Let him in."
Li Xing upset Colangelo, even if he didn't say anything, he knew what the other party wanted to do.
It is estimated that there is another plan to recommend to him.
It's called a recommendation, but in fact, he has no reason to refuse at all.
Li Xing has already achieved prestige in the team, and the series of operations he has handled before have all proved to be successful.
If Colangelo rejects Li Xing, some people will make a small report in front of the boss, telling the boss that he had friction with Laci Lee, and this will not be conducive to the harmony in the team.
Colangelo could even imagine the boss's reaction.
damn it!
Annoyed and bored, Colangelo ignored the trumpet in the notebook and handed the notebook to the assistant directly.
"Brian, you seem to be in a good mood."
Li Xing's words nearly broke Colangelo's trigeminal nerve.
good mood?Are you in a good mood to see me through your ass?
"Yeah yeah."
As a hypocritical general manager, the iconic bright smile and open-mouthed lies are compulsory courses.
"Larch, just talk about something, we are not idlers."
Colangelo is so tired of Li Xing that he doesn't want to live with him under the same roof.
"Is such that."
"We tried out a group of insiders before and found a few good young people."
"You mean Mike Muscala? I get it, we'll try to get him."
"No, I mean, there are better options."
Li Xing said.
"Not on the shortlist?"
"No."
"Why aren't you here?"
"He wasn't on our tryout list, but I knew he was a better option than Mike."
"who is it?"
Li Xing spoke slowly, and when he said Gobert's name, Colangelo immediately found his information.
"However, his draft prospects are very good, and we can't take him."
"Yes, so I have a proposal."
When Li Xing said his proposal, Colangelo's anger came to his mind from the bottom of his heart, and he almost scolded.
It's fine to recommend rookies, it's fine to affect the team's trade, and it doesn't matter if the mess he made off the court is wiped by the management.
Now, he actually wants to intervene in the team's trade?
Colangelo's internal organs almost exploded with anger.
"Why do you think Michael Jordan agreed? He's the meanest bastard I've ever seen!" Colangelo suppressed his anger.
With a smile on his face, Li Xing said flatly, regardless of whether Colangelo was angry or not, "He will agree."
"Bryan, if Michael rejects this proposal, let's let it go, how about it?"
Li Xing was not aggressive, it seemed that it was really just a proposal.
This deal requires Jordan to get a mid-to-late first-round pick by himself, and then make a deal with them in a way that is almost free.
Is Jordan an idiot?
"Well, I'll propose it to Charlotte, but whether they agree, I don't know."
"That's enough."
"Don't bother me, goodbye."
After finishing the work, Li Xing walked out of Colangelo's office.
He has an inexplicable sense of accomplishment.
He knew Colangelo was angry, but he couldn't lose his temper himself.
It's really refreshing to watch the other party want to cut him into pieces, but he has to bow his head due to the situation.
I remembered that I was thinking of using that hole card beforehand, but now it seems that I don't need it at all.
Colangelo's hatred for him stemmed from his fear of him.
His versatility set off Colangelo's incompetence.
Although the whole world thinks that Colangelo is a shrewd general manager, everyone in the Raptors knows that Colangelo's only contribution to the team's success is the selection of Li Xing. As for the others, they have nothing to do with him. big.
His hatred stems from jealousy, and Li Xing keeps interfering in his work.
"Hate me, you can't do anything anyway."
When he walked out of the general manager's office, Li Xing smiled mockingly.
