"Yes!" Duffy nodded and said, "And the trade chips are not a problem, you are playing well now, JJ's playing time is constantly compressed, the salaries on both sides are about the same, and Houston has Harden here, there is a great need for a pitcher like JJ, I believe that as long as the management of the Clippers is willing to open this mouth, the deal will be completed immediately." ”

"When you say that, I really think it has to be Brewer." Tang Shuai said approvingly.

"Of course I have considered it, JJ is Reaves' veteran, it was Reaves who was bent on trading him, and now Reaves is going to have a better future, such a choice is definitely worth it, and Lance and JJ are both shooting guards, and the Clippers' three core salaries are more than 20 million, there is really no need to hoard two high-salary players in the position of scoring guard, not to mention that most of the time you and CP3 are partners in the backcourt."

"That's right." Tang Shuai was completely persuaded by Duffy, the Clippers lineup is so tight that they can't afford to have seven or eight million substitutes, and if this deal is reached, for the Clippers, perhaps the only problem left is how to get Brewer's focus back on form.

"By the way, the Clippers seem to be short of an assistant coach, right?" Duffy said suddenly.

"Huh?" Tang Shuai looked at Duffy suspiciously, after Kassel was promoted to head coach, he really didn't immediately start the matter of the first assistant coach.

"McHale has been a head coach for three years, and I believe that with his ability, being an assistant coach shouldn't be a problem, and my network tells me that McHale still wants to continue as a coach." Duffy is good now, and directly broke the last bit of trouble. With McHale, Brewer's return to form is naturally not a problem.

"Of course. The coach's question is just a casual remark, after all, this kind of thing is not up to me. Duffy finished. He yawned, then got up and said, "I'll go to sleep first, and it's going to be a lot tomorrow." ”

Tang Shuai also stood up, couldn't help but reach out and pat Duffy's shoulder and said, "James, I found that you are really condescending to be an agent, and you can be a general manager." ”

"No, I'm just talking about it, it's a lot more complicated to consider when it comes to real trading than I'm talking about now. I'm still my agent, easy and free. After Duffy finished speaking, he went straight back to his room.

Tang Shuai shook his head with a smile, and then went back to his room.

Duffy's suggestion is good, and it seems that he will have to find a suitable opportunity to talk to Cassel in the future.

The day after the game against the Jazz, after a day of recuperation, the Clippers embarked on a three-game road trip in the East.

On the plane, the mood of the players seemed very relaxed, compared to the low morale during the previous eight consecutive defeats. Now it can be said that it is completely a two-team decision.

"Lance, don't dangle on the plane!" When Cassel saw Stephenson running here and there, he couldn't help but say a word, compared to the relaxed state of mind of the players. The head coach has been troubled a lot during this time because of the matter of starting small forward.

Stephenson scratched his head, then ran to the middle of Tang Shuai and Smith's seats.

For the players. The only thing that is bad about Cassel compared to Reeves is probably this harsh coaching style.

But Stephenson is clearly not the master of peace. After sitting down, he said, "Don, I'll give you a little knowledge." Do you know which is the worst locker room in the NBA? ”

"The worst locker room?" Tang Shuai shook his head thinking about it, he had only played a few games in the NBA, how could he possibly know which away team's locker room was the worst.

"Guess, guess." Stephenson is the kind of person who can't sit idle, and then said.

Tang Shuai thought about it, he played so many away games, the most luxurious he had experienced, the worst, he thought about the locker room he had been to, and finally said tentatively: "Sacrato's?" The dressing room didn't even have a wardrobe, just a row of coat hooks. ”

"The locker room at Sacrato Gate...... It's bad enough, but it's not the worst, guess what. Stephenson asked with interest.

At this moment, Smith couldn't help but shake his head beside him, not knowing what he thought.

Tang Shuai glanced at Smith, then at Stephenson's mysterious look, suddenly thought of a possibility, and then said, "Could it be...... It's Milwaukee, right? ”

"Uh......" Stephenson was stunned for a moment, looking a little speechless.

"Haha......" Smith couldn't help but laugh out loud, apparently Stephenson's choosing made him very happy.

"Lance, your set is not good, Don's ball quotient is so high, you are digging a pit and jumping into it by yourself!" Smith gloated with a look of schadenfreude.

"Go! Go! Stephenson waved his hand, and sat back in his place.

Tang Shuai was aroused by Stephenson's curiosity at this time, and turned to Smith and asked, "Josh, the locker room in Milwaukee doesn't even have a coat hook, right?" ”

"No, there is, there are wardrobes." Smith shook his head and said.

"There are wardrobes, so how can it be the worst?" Tang Shuai asked with a puzzled face.

"Everything else is okay, it's just a little smaller, just like this city, it's a little smaller." Smith said with a frown, apparently he had unconsciously imagined the appearance of the Bucks locker room in his mind as he spoke.

"A little smaller?" The doubts in Tang Shuai's eyes did not decrease.

"It's almost there, everyone tidy up everything." At this moment, Pierce stood up and said to everyone.

"You'll know when you get there." Smith said as he stood up and began to pick up his things.

Tang Shuai was puzzled, and he also began to take his own things.

Milwaukee, located in southeastern Wisconsin, is the largest city and seaport in the state, but it is obviously not comparable to a big city like Los Angeles, the population of the central city is only 600,000, which is the smallest city with an NBA team.

After the plane arrived in Milwaukee, Cassel took the players to the hotel and then went straight to the Bradley Center, the home of the Bucks.

Before entering the locker room, just looking at this stadium that has been around for some years already gives people a bad premonition.

On the way over, Smith said that this arena was built in 1988, almost 30 years old, which is definitely an old arena in the NBA, and Stern suggested that the Bucks change the arena when he was still the president of the league, but it has been delayed due to financial reasons.

As soon as he walked into the locker room, he was greeted by a musty smell, and when he really walked into the dressing room of the away team, Tang Shuai was dumbfounded.

"I'm grass! This is the locker room?! "Tang Shuai hasn't complained yet, Brandon over there. Dawson couldn't help but shout, and it could be seen from his expression that he was quite disgusted.
