Chapter 115: The Iron-Blooded Coach Comes Out of the Mountain(2/2)
Grant pointed to the screen and cursed, but his trembling hands betrayed his fear.
The big devil Pat Riley actually ended in person!
Although on the surface, Riley said that his comeback was just to make the Big Three better running-in, to strive for the championship, and even to experience the fun of taking over the coaching post again.
But anyone with discerning eyes knows that Riley is targeting the Cavaliers this time!
Scott did not laugh at Grant. It was normal to be frightened when facing such a cruel Riley.
Scott entered the NBA with the fourth pick in 1983, and Riley was the head coach for the first seven years of his career.
How cruel is Riley, a ruthless man?
On the eve of the 1989 Finals, Riley, as the head coach of the Lakers, directly increased the training volume of him and Magic, Jabbar, James Worthy and others, and pulled all the injuries and directly reimbursed the season, resulting in a team that had not lost in the playoffs 4-0 and was swept 4-0 in the finals, and Jabbar retired early...
However, in this case, Riley can still ruthlessly turn the blame and refuse to admit his mistakes!
However, Riley was so decisive and decisive that he could announce his comeback again at this age, which made him look at him with admiration.
To be honest, Riley does have a good job of coaching the team. His iron-blooded coaching style. Although he does not regard players as human beings, he can greatly stimulate the potential of players...
I'm afraid as Riley said, now that he joins the coaching staff, the Big Three will be running-in faster, the Heat's tactics will be more smooth, and the Heat's strength will reach a higher level...
The Knight's road to revenge is even more difficult to walk!
"It's really good. I just happened to catch it in one go. I'll save you another scene of my comeback in the second year!"
Wu Di said with a smile that he had expected this result, but Riley's actions were a little earlier than he expected.
Scott and Grant looked at each other. Could this be the legendary "a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger"?
"Are you really...n't you afraid?"
Grant widened his eyes. Now the outside world has raised his expectations for the Cavaliers so high that if the Cavaliers are swept 0-4 by the Heat in the playoffs, Wu Di's reputation will definitely be seriously affected.
"Nothing scary! From being careless, to being passive, and then to officially announce a comeback, does Riley's actions just confirm that our strength is growing rapidly?"
Wu Di continued to laugh.
In fact, he has many reasons to be afraid of. Riley's personal outcome will undoubtedly bring the Heat's strength to the next level, change the fate of the Heat missing the championship in 11 years, and even directly kill his main mission and deprive him of his injury-free badge...
But one reason to not be afraid is enough, that is, he is now the spiritual leader of the Cavaliers!
Grandpa Mao once guided him to despise the enemy strategically and pay attention to the enemy tactically!
Since Riley's comeback is caused by him, he will definitely affect the direction of the playoffs.
Wu Di knocked on the table with his knuckles:
"Aren't we going to discuss the transaction today? Let's start. After discussing, I will continue to go back to participate in training!"
Grant and Scott came to their senses. Yes, only by reaching a deal as soon as possible can they strengthen their lineup and continue to wrestle with Riley!
Now the Cavaliers' lineup is inconsistent with the Heat.
Although Wu Di and Jordan Jr.'s strength is improving rapidly, the three giants are also working together quickly, and they have the playoff experience that the Cavaliers do not currently have.
In addition, it has to be warned that their fault tolerance rate is too small now. If the Heat uses despicable tricks to reimburse Wu Di, Jamison, and Jordan Jordan, the Cavaliers' system will collapse instantly.
Therefore, we must continue to strengthen!
Grant distributes the information in the folders in his hand to two people:
"Because Williams was in poor form after returning from injury in the last game and the transaction value declined, the Timberwolves did not plan to loosen their offer. They are still Kevin Lovegajoni Forlin for Williams, Jordan Jr. and the Clippers' first round pick."
As he said that, he looked at Wu Di with admiration and continued:
"In addition, Love has a trend of explosion recently. A few days ago, the Timberwolves played against the Knicks at home. Love scored 31 points and 31 rebounds in the game. I communicated with the general managers of other teams. Now Love's quotes in the trading market are getting higher and higher, and we don't have much time to make decisions..."
Wu Di has a unique vision. There are Jordan in front and Love in the back. They are all players who have made rapid progress!
But in fact, Love is more suitable for the Cavaliers' current system than Jordan Jr. After trading, he can play center forward and be competent for Jordan Jr.'s inability to act as a support point...
Wu Di is also a headache. Jordan Jr. The Clippers' first round pick is not a product. It would be fine if it was Hickson and the Cavaliers' own first round pick, but the Timberwolves disagreed!
However, today Grant held a special meeting to show that there are progress in other directions...
Sure enough, when Grant saw the two of them shook their heads, he continued:
"The Magic has changed the quotation, and they are willing to exchange Vince Carter and Rashad Lewis for Williams and Jamison!"
Wu Di shook his head again. Although Lewis is more accurate than Jamison's three-pointer and has more experience in the playoffs, Jamison has adapted to the Cavaliers' tactics and has returned to the superstar level. There is no need to make such a deal.
In addition, if you follow the trajectory of your previous life, Carter will be bought out and become a free agent next year, and it will not be too late to recruit Carter.
"On the Nuggets, our previously interested Nene Hillaryo was also added to the trade. They want to exchange JR Smith Ganne Hillaryo for Williams and Jordan Jr."
Although Jordan Jr. has not been recognized as a superstar in the system category, Wu Di decisively refused again.
"Ah? Nene's skills are much more delicate than Jordan Jr., and JR Smith can also enhance our back line. I really don't think about it?"
Grant looked at Scott, hoping that the latter would persuade Wu Di.
After all, in his opinion, Nene, a quasi-All-Star big center, is still much better than Jordan Jr. And JR Smith's replacement for Williams is basically a tie-in substitute who can cooperate with Wu Di.
If Wu Di doesn't agree, it's entirely because of his personal friendship with Jordan Jordan, but now the enemy is in front of him, this kind of personal relationship must be put aside.
Scott said nothing, Jordan and Jamison were either away, which was not good for the fault tolerance rate.
Although he did not lead the team to play many playoff games when he was a coach, he had more than ten years of playoff experience during his time as a player. Both of the latter transactions were "poisonous pills" in nature, which poses great risks to the Cavaliers.
Grant is really awkward, he is not qualified to be the general manager at all...
Wu Di frowned, and he also noticed that something was wrong with Grant.
After so many days, the key transactions with the Timberwolves have made no progress, but they have created a bunch of quotes that seem to have improved but are actually useless...
And it's either a trade between Jamison or Jordan Jr. Apart from Scott and Gibson, these two are the two with the best relationship with him in the team. Is this guy Grant trying to destroy his position in the team?
Made, it’s really better to succeed than to lose things!
"Grant, find a way to promote a deal with the Timberwolves, without trading Jordan and Jamison! Otherwise, it will be your dereliction of duty!"
After saying this, Wu Di pushed the chair away and stood up, leaving the conference room regardless of Grant's face.
Chapter completed!
