What Li Tuanjie never expected was that only the day after discussing the change of ownership with Xia Longwen, Ballmer appeared in the capital......

It was still in the private club of the courtyard that Li Tuanjie saw this "wronged leader" who was very famous in later generations......

Some are bald, some are fat, wearing a casual Paul shirt, and there is no way to see that this middle-aged and elderly European and American man is a super tyrant.

"Li Tuanjie, to tell you the truth, I am your loyal die-hard fan, and I want to buy a team in the big ball market, because of you, I chose the Bucks!" As soon as Ballmer saw Li Tuanjie, he immediately held Li Tuanjie's hand tightly......

"Thank you for your appreciation, Ballmer......"

"I have absolute confidence that with the two of us, the Bucks will be the most valuable team in the entire NBA! By the way, I have plans to build a arena in Inglewood, California, so we can relocate the Bucks to Inglewood! I've thought of a name, let's call it Inglewood Bucks......" As soon as he saw Lee, Ballmer excitedly told him about his plan.

Li Tuanjie was speechless, in the end, he was a bigwig-level figure, and the stadium was a thing that cost hundreds of millions of dollars or even more than a billion dollars......

However, whether the team relocates or not, this is Ballmer's business, Li Tuanjie can't control it, and he doesn't want to care, Milwaukee's ball market is indeed a little too small, and it may not be a good thing to relocate.

And where to play, it doesn't make much difference for Li Tuanjie, and Li Tuanjie will naturally not object to relocating to California, which has a better climate.

……

Ballmer is in high spirits, and he now seems to have found the same passion as when he started a business with Bill Gates as a young man......

It's true that sports make people young, at least Ballmer is in high spirits right now......

"By the way, Li Tuanjie, I have some ideas for the future planning of the team......"

"Tell me, I just have something I want to talk to you about......"

"Okay, my plan is to win the championship in the next two years, counting the Bucks championship today, we will create a dynasty in Milwaukee, and then, in two years, the court on Ingelwood's side should also be built, and then we will go to Ingwood to build another dynasty, haha, Inglewood's market is much bigger than Milwaukee, I firmly believe that as long as we build two dynasties in a row, the market value will definitely be much worse than the Knicks and Lakers!" Ballmer spoke impassionedly about his plans for the future......

Li Tuanjie was speechless for a while, what kind of plan is this, building two dynasties in a row, this is not called planning, this is called longing......

"I thought the plan you said was about team lineup construction...... Li Tuanjie said with an awkward smile.

"In terms of squad building? Isn't that your forte...... Don't worry, I will be fully responsible for the construction of the team's lineup, I will never interfere, and you don't have to worry about the team's salary, as long as it does not exceed the hard salary cap, I can agree! ”

"By the way, you see, is it time for a change of manager? You say, any head coach in the league, except for the old boy of ** Vicky, I can poach anyone else for you......"

As soon as he heard this, Li Tuanjie shook his head again and again, Stotts did a good job, Li Tuanjie didn't want to find a head coach who likes to point fingers......

Ballmer is an excellent owner, which Li Tuanjie knows very well, and when Ballmer bought the Clippers in later generations, he communicated with Chris Paul and asked Paul to choose the head coach of the team himself......

But Paul chose Doug Rivers, which is probably the most regrettable decision in Paul's entire career......

"Stotts did a good job, so there is no need to make substitutions, I want to discuss with you here, about player trading, you know, now that it's August, the NBA trade door is open, and our Bucks currently have a lot of strong players in their hands that they can't use, so we have to make a ...... early"

"You don't have to tell me about this, just tell the team's staff in charge of basketball affairs what you think, anyway, as long as it's about the players, you're solely responsible for everything!"

It can be said that Ballmer gave Li Tuanjie great autonomy, and the treatment enjoyed by Li Tuanjie was no different from that enjoyed when Xia Longwen was in power.

Li Tuanjie nodded, since this is the case, the transaction on the Bucks' side should be early, there are too many chips in the Bucks' hands at present, and the transaction will definitely not be completed in a day or two!

……

After separating from Ballmer, Li Tuanjie began to think about the team's trade plan!

In the entire NBA league, everyone knows that the Bucks will definitely have countless trading moves next, and they are all looking forward to it.

Counting the seven or eight rookies that the Bucks have received in succession this season, it is very likely that some players in the Bucks' previous championship-winning roster will be traded!

"Rondo's side has completed the trade, now let's consider Gortat and Thaddeus Young, both of whom are currently rookie contracts, and the trade value is very good, and they must not be sold for cheap......

Gortat averaged about 19 minutes per game last season, averaging a double-double of about 10 points and 9 rebounds per game, and with his rookie status, it would not be too much to say that he has the strength of a first-line center.

Big centers, especially young big centers, are of extremely high trade value, and many teams can also see that Marc Gasol is not for sale for the Bucks, so they simply set their sights on Gortat!

Anyway, the Bucks drafted so many interior players in this season's draft, and the Bucks are going to trade Gortat out eighty percent!

There are currently 10 teams that have made Gortat offers!

The Cavaliers, Mavericks, Suns and even the Spurs have all made offers, and a player like Gortat, who is immediate, and doesn't take up any salary space at all, is definitely a gem for teams that want to win a championship!

Out of consideration for Gortat's future development, Li Tuanjie does not plan to trade Gortat to these strong teams, and these strong teams themselves have no decent bargaining chips.

In the end, Lee Tuanjie chose Gortat's next home among those teams with a worse record.

One is the New York Knicks, and the other is the Thunder!

The offer made by the Thunder almost made Li Tuanjie angry, they only provided next year's second-round draft pick plus a newcomer who Li Tuanjie didn't have much impression at all, and they wanted to take the super center Miaogu Gortat from the Bucks......

"It's whimsical! Thought there was a good thing like that in the draft?! Li Tuanjie was speechless.

At the draft meeting, the reason why Li Tuanjie did not hesitate to agree to the Thunder's plan to replace Rondo with Wei Shao is actually mostly because he wants Rondo to have a better development!

Needless to say, the relationship between Rondo and Li Tuanjie is needless to say, and if he joins the Thunder, it will indeed be of great benefit to Rondo, Li Tuanjie didn't blink at this time, knowing that he was at a loss, he agreed to the deal with the Thunder!

And now, Thunder is thinking about something good again, and Li Tuanjie naturally won't agree.

And the offer made by the New York Knicks is quite sincere......

They are willing to trade their rookie Yi Jianlian plus a first-round pick in exchange for Gortat......

The Knicks have cultivated Yi Jianlian for a whole season, but the gains are minimal, and Yi Jianlian has not shown the potential to match his position......

Coupled with the problem of age fraud, the Knicks were quite disappointed in Yi Jianlian, and now they are taking it out as the main bargaining chip in exchange for Gortat......

The Knicks' trade this time is to play the compatriot card, Yi Jianlian is a compatriot of the Bucks boss Li Tuanjie, and now the Knicks want to trade the compatriot to you, and the transaction offer is quite lucrative, can you do this deal?!

Although this approach is a bit shameless, it may be exchanged for a super center like Gortat, and the Knicks can't care about shamelessness or shamelessness......

Sitting on the largest ball market in the entire league, but the record is outrageous, the Knicks have to do everything they can to improve the strength and record of the Knicks!

And Gortat can play close to a double-double in less than 20 minutes of playing time in the Bucks, and if he starts a team that lacks a center in the Knicks, he will play an average of 35 minutes per game, even if he gets a 15+10 data, it will be a piece of cake......

How many centers can play 15+10 in the whole league? Howard's regular season stats are only 18+13!

But can Howard be traded for Yi Jianlian plus a first-round pick? Naturally, it is impossible, even if this chip is doubled, it will definitely not be able to exchange for an existence like Howard!

……

After thinking for a while, Li Tuanjie still decided to agree to the Knicks' offer, which can be regarded as the best of the inferior.

The deal is a good thing for Gortat, who can get as much playing time as possible when he gets to the Knicks.

But after Yi Jianlian came to the Bucks, what position should he play and how much playing time he should get, this Li Tuanjie has not yet figured it out!

"Let's talk about it later, anyway, it's already overcrowded now, and there aren't many Yi Jianlian!" Li Tuanjie made a direct decision, called Stotts, and asked him to inform the team that he was ready to trade!

Another Thaddeus Young, in Li Tuanjie's opinion, his strength is similar to Wilson Chandler, who was traded before, and he is a player with very good immediate combat ability, but limited potential.

Since the Bucks are really overcrowded at the moment, Li Tuanjie didn't look at the offers for those players who traded chips!

In the end, Lee Tuanjie chose the Washington Wizards team to make the trade!

The Wizards' initial offer was Javier McGee plus a first-round pick in exchange for Thaddeus Young......

If the Bucks are now short of 15 people on the roster, then the Wizards' original trade offer, Li Tuanjie may agree to it......

But where are you going to come to McGee now? It can't always be in the development alliance, right? In that case, it would be purely harmful, so Li Tuanjie directly asked the Wizards to change the trade plan and ask for the Wizards' first-round picks for the next two seasons!

Draft picks are a good thing, and in Li Tuanjie's view, a first-round pick is equivalent to a strong newcomer!
