0494: [The so-called Plan B]
Snoopy, who said this, was covered with goosebumps, and he muttered: Why is Gay angry.
Then ask Vanessa and hang up the phone.
When he walked into Donnie Walsh's office, the team's executives were all in place. Donnie Walsh took the initiative to talk about the current deal for Zach Randolph.
Phoenix agreed to trade Stoudemire, but they weren't willing to buy Zach Randolph because they were trying to rebuild completely, so they wanted to pull in another team, preferably a three-way deal with the team whose contract expired.
In addition, Isaiah Thomas has been pushing for another option, believing that a trade with the Toronto Raptors is the best way to go. Chris Bosh's style of play suits Snoopy perfectly, and his all-around face-frame style will be even more brilliant under Snoopy's instigation.
In contrast, Mike D'Anthony prefers to get a trade for Stoudemire, who he believes will help him improve his status. Now he feels incapable of intervening in player management and is hampered by Isaiah Thomas. He hopes to bring in a whole new force to break the deadlock.
In addition to these two deals, there have also been mentions that Washington is actively cleaning up its assets, and if Zach Randolph is taken out, it may even get Butler and Jamison at the same time.
In addition, the Rockets are also on the discussion list. Some managers are quite covetous of Tracy Maddie's expiring contract, believing that his $20 million salary is simply pie in the sky.
But the proposal was quickly struck down because everyone knows that the Houstonians have had some 'sight' games lately, and they have put Tracy Maddy in the starting line-up after returning from surgery, but Maddy has lost his athleticism and can no longer match the salary of the team. And the Knicks are still looking to be bolstered in the trade to take the team far in the playoffs.
And in addition to the Zach Randolph deal, management also talked about the trade package for Jeffries, Nate Robinson, Eddie Curry and even David Lee.
Dugg sat quietly in the corner all the time, and he didn't say anything. He is not a very controlling person, he knows that professional matters are handled by professional people.
After a lengthy discussion, Donnie Walsh began asking Dugg for his opinion.
"Zach wants to go to the big cities, and if the Los Angeles Clippers can join in a three-way deal, it will be a happy thing for everybody."
"Eddie is slowly regaining his strength and I'm sure a lot of managers will see value in him. And... His contract expires in 11 years. ”
"David Lee, Nate Robinson, their talent is really limited with the Knicks. It's hard to give them enough time and stage to prove themselves, and it's best if we can get them to a team that can always provide enough playing time. ”
Dugg gives his opinion from his point of view, he is the dressing room leader and he speaks on behalf of the player community.
He had to let the traders know...... The posture of the team leader is like this.
Donnie Walsh nodded his head in acknowledgement and praised Snoopy. Then, after the ventilation session ended, Doog volunteered to stay.
Three minutes after Mike D'Anthony closed the office door, Snoopy picked up the black tea that Donnie Walsh had handed him.
Then, he looked at the experienced professional manager very calmly, although his heart was surging before entering the office, and the message revealed by the black mamba made him feel like he had been betrayed fiercely. But now, as clear and restrained as a lake, he even took a gentle sip of black tea, and then praised the tea that he had brought from England.
Later, he said meaningfully: "The British like to add jasmine and orange slices to black tea that is native to Sri Lanka and classify them according to taste. If I'm not mistaken, the full name of this cup of tea would have been 'Duke Black Tea'. ”
"Yes. Specially prepared for you. In fact, I still have jam tea, jasmine tea, and honey tea in my cabinet. Donnie Walsh shrugged his shoulders and said with a relaxed expression.
"Thank you, I love it." Dugg nodded, then put the teacup down, and he continued to look at Donnie calmly.
Donnie Walsh was inexplicably a little weak-hearted.
"Donnie, don't you have anything to say to me?" Snoopy asks Walsh.
Donnie Walsh spread his palms after a moment of stunned expression: "No, it seems that there are no other important things." If you don't have a date tonight, I think we can have dinner together. ”
Duge drank the black tea in the teacup with a calm expression, then stood up and said with a smile, "Oh, no. Mr. Walsh, I am not in the habit of having dinner with a gray-haired elder, ordinarily... In the process, they will continue to instill in you the scenery and deeds of his youth, as well as some unknown philosophies. And what I want to do more now is go home and watch basketball tapes. ”
Then, to the sound of laughter, he strode out of the locker room.
Apparently happy, Snoopy stayed alone to drink a cup of Duke tea.
But in reality, Donnie Walsh realizes that he is losing something precious because of his dishonesty.
Is it Snoopy's loyalty?
He wasn't sure.
He just wants to get a definite message from the damn James team right now, and if LeBron James gives a verbal promise, then... He will not hesitate to push Plan-B forward. The so-called PLAN-B is to keep Zach Randolph, trade Snoopy, and trade Andrew Bynum from the Lakers to build a solid support team for the arrival of LeBron James.
However, the current situation is ...... There was no news from LeBron James' team. They told the Knicks in a high-minded posture that LeBron James now needs a period of calm thinking to make accurate judgments, and what you should be happy about right now...... At least you've gotten one step closer than the other teams.
However, Donnie Walsh was not happy about it at all, he felt like he was hanging in mid-air. If LeBron James doesn't come in the end, the project he is doing now will be a naked betrayal for Snoopy. Will he hold a grudge against the Knicks because of this?
Donnie Walsh reclined on the couch, his eyes fixed on the Duke Black Tea in front of him.
He remembered what Isaiah Thomas had sworn to himself two hours earlier: "Snoopy could also reach LeBron James' position in the future." So, I want you to terminate Plan B. ”
