"Anji, you can make a sincere offer, I don't think your offer is sincere." Richard reclined in his chair and looked at Danny Angie with a smile.

"In addition to this Nets pick, we are willing to give us another first-round pick that Green Kai brings, how about it?" Danny Angie asked, frowning.

The offer he gave just now actually meant to test Richard.

Now Rondo's problem is very difficult to solve, and I am afraid that only Richard in the current alliance can ignore Rondo's thorn problem and suppress Rondo.

So in this deal, Richard inherently occupies a great initiative, and Anji has no choice but to keep increasing his chips.

Green Kai's first-round pick this year is the 16th pick, and Richard smacked his mouth, the 16th pick was very embarrassing, and he couldn't choose the fifteenth pick.

However, Richard also knows that Anji has added this first-round pick, which is already his bottom line.

If he continues to ask for the price, it is estimated that Anji will definitely not be able to agree.

This deal itself, if you don't consider the thorn in the head of Rondo, in fact, Green Kai's blood loss.

But now Rondo's problem, they have to solve it, so they have to do a big bloodletting, take out two first-round picks, and then make a trade with Richard.

"Well, for Stevens' sake, I agreed to the deal." Richard nodded and said with a smile.

Hearing that Richard agreed, Angie and Stevens were both relieved.

Finally sent away the plague god Rondo......

Rondo's strength is naturally there, but the problem is that he likes to mess with the sky, and there is no one in the Green Kai team who can suppress him......

Now that they have Horford and Thomas Jr., and they still have a lot of future draft picks on hand, they can finally rebuild.

Green Kai sent Rajon Rondo, Jets Terry, the 2013 first-round pick No. 7 plus the first-round pick No. 16 to the Clippers in exchange for Al Horford and Thomas Jr.

Although the two teams have not yet made an official announcement, many people in the outside world learned the news from the grapevine, but no one said who lost and who made the two teams.

If you look at the books, it is undoubtedly a loss for the Green Kai, but they got rid of Rondo's big contract through this deal, plus the introduction of Horford, the center of the Western Conference Finals, does not look like a loss.

As for the Clippers, it seems to be profitable, but there are still many people who don't understand why Richard wants to sell Horford.

Is he going to let Big Ben or Brad Miller play as the starting center next season? This is obviously an impossible question.

Big Ben is old, no one can deny this, although the state on the field is still good, but the playing time is okay to keep less than 20 minutes, once this time is exceeded, the efficiency will collapse.

As for Miller, whether he will retire next season is a matter of two words.

In this case, Richard sold Horford, apparently an extremely risky act.

……

After the deal was made, Richard received a call from Jazz head coach Tyrone Corbyn.

The Jazz actually wanted to trade with Richard, and they wanted to exchange the 14th pick in their hands for the 27th pick in Richard's hand, and help each other choose each other in the draft.

If there are no strings attached, the Jazz's deal is undoubtedly sending warmth, 14 picks for 27 picks, what is it if it is not warmth.

Although Richard's relationship with Jazz in the past two years has turned into a friendship, it is not good enough for Jazz to send warmth.

In addition to a 27th pick, the Jazz also want the 27th pick in the second round that the Clippers have on hand.

Because there is not a single decent player in the second round this year, under normal circumstances, Richard is not unable to agree to this deal, and it doesn't seem to be a loss anyway.

However, because of the Jazz's trade request, Richard was reminded of one thing, and he had ignored his plan to pick Gobert with the 27th pick.

Normally, Gobert was drafted by the Nuggets with the 27th pick, and then the Nuggets made a trade with the Jazz and sent Gobert to the Jazz.

The Spurs actually took a fancy to Gobert, but they only had a 28th pick on hand, and as a result, Gobert was directly cut off by the Nuggets, to be precise, by the Jazz.

And now that the Spurs are fourth in the West, and the draft pick at hand is the 23rd pick in the first round, it will definitely be difficult for the Nuggets to intercept the Spurs anyway.

And the Jazz probably don't know what the Spurs think about Gobert now, thinking that a 27th pick is enough to pick Gobert, so they came to the Clippers to make this trade so that their draft pick can maximize the benefits.

Richard is a little sore now, should this deal be done with the Jazz?

If he doesn't, Richard's 27th pick will be completely wasted.

Because the Spurs are up front, Gobert won't fall to the 27th pick anyway......

And if you make a deal with the Jazz, then when you use the draft pick given by the Jazz to sign Gobert at the draft, it is estimated that the Jazz management will be angry.

After all, their original target was Gobert, and now that Richard used their draft pick to select Gobert, it's no wonder that they weren't so angry that they exploded.

This is very uncomfortable, Richard frowned, didn't this force him to offend people?

He doesn't understand why so many teams are worried about Gobert, it stands to reason that Gobert's performance in Ligue 1 is not outstanding, with an average of about 8 points and 5 rebounds per game, which is not worth mentioning at all.

……

The current situation is that if Richard does not agree to the Jazz, it is estimated that the Jazz will find a team with the 26th or 25th pick to trade.

That way, the Spurs can easily take Gobert.

This is definitely a scene that Richard doesn't want to see, the Spurs have gotten the backcourt trident lineup in the last two years, and if he is given an inside line to set the sea god needle Gobert, then Richard will still play a ball.

Although he promised Stern and Xiao Hua before that they would win fewer championships and more suspense, Richard knew very well that if Gobert was taken away by the Spurs, the Clippers would no longer be a question of winning fewer championships, but a question of whether they could win the championship, and the Spurs might have suppressed the Clippers for at least four years in the future.

Therefore, if Richard doesn't want the Spurs to get Gobert, he must agree to the Jazz's deal.

But if he agreed, then Richard would probably offend a wave of jazz again......

Or just tell the Jazz that the Spurs are interested in Gobert and let them not make the trade and go straight to Gobert with their fourteenth pick?

If they do this, not to mention whether the Jazz will believe it, even if they believe it, Richard does this, if this thing is poked out, he will offend the Spurs again.

Is it to offend the Spurs? Or offended Sir? That's a problem......

"God is forcing me to be a wicked person......" Richard sighed speechlessly.

"Corbyn, I've agreed to your trade request, and when the draft comes, tell me who you want, right?" Richard called the Jazz head coach back......

Corbin is a little happy, this extra second-round pick, they also have a favorite candidate, originally a fourteenth pick can only choose one player, but now it has been replaced by two draft picks, can choose two favorite players, this deal is profitable.
