Here Jiang Chao actually has no idea of ​​giving the Timberwolves any advice.

It's funny, I keep saying that I'm being taken advantage of, but in fact, it's just sour.

Last year's 8-for-5 operation was fine for both sides, and even the Knicks suffered a small loss.

The Timberwolves also got Duhon because of this. Everyone was criticizing the Knicks at that time. Now after seeing Curry play, they are starting to say that the Knicks cheated the Timberwolves with the fifth pick. Do you really think the Internet has no memory?

This time he found him himself, which means the Timberwolves asked him for help.

That’s why he won’t be asking for trouble, and it’s not like he’s asking for help from the Wolves. It’s none of my business who they choose. Anyway, everyone gets what they need and everyone is happy.

He must be happy. He was worried about how to use the No. 3 pick, so a solution was delivered directly to his door.

Because only he knows.

Getting the No. 3 pick by yourself is a bit too much.

It's even a bit wasteful.

This is an excellent draft. After all, George doesn't have that many high-ranking teams that want him.

This is just right. It is very likely that George, Sea, and Coach will have a good harvest, or there is no need to spend money to buy the second-round pick. I originally thought of giving it to the second-round pick of Sujiang Nangang and bought it with money.

This saves trouble, and this No. 3 pick can be put to good use.

…

NBA official website updates new trends in the free market:

"The Timberwolves and the Knicks made a trade, the Timberwolves used the No. 5 and No. 17 picks in exchange for the Knicks' No. 3 pick Tim Thomas"

ESPN updates free market news:

"The Knicks' first shot in the free market! Veteran Tim Thomas was traded! The No. 3 pick was voluntarily waived!"

After both parties signed the fax, the news soon came out, and no one knew what kind of aircraft the Knicks were going to buy.

David Stern even called to make insinuating remarks:

"Don't you want the higher the draft pick, the better? You don't want the No. 3 pick?"

"It's okay if you want two."

Sean Marks can't say much. In fact, it seems that this year's draft is very popular, but the boss doesn't look as excited as he did last year.

This is also true. In Jiang Chao's eyes, many of the rookies that industry insiders are very optimistic about this year are nothing more than smoke in the past.

Super God Forum, Reddit, Super Chat Moments, and Weibo all reposted it.

Fans started complaining mode:

"What's going on? The boss wanted a high pick last year, but he doesn't want it this year?"

"Return the favor???"

"Hahahaha, I saw this routine last year. Last year, the Knicks traded players for higher draft picks, but this time they traded for two lower draft picks."

"Veteran Tim Thomas still has some gas."

"I guess the Timberwolves want a really good rookie."

"It can't be Cousins. I think their boss likes Cousins' character very much and says he may become the next generation of Wolf King."

"Lefu: I should be in bed?? Meow meow meow?"

"The Knicks' operation this time is very mediocre. This year's draft is quite good. There are high-level talents at all positions."

"Yes, this year is a rare year in which there are talents in every position, so the first few picks are very popular, and every team can select players in the positions that the team lacks."

"The Timberwolves probably want Wesley Johnson, and there's no way they want Cousins."

"I wonder if Wall will fall."

"If Wall falls, the Nets will definitely choose him. This is a man comparable to Rose!"

"517? Why do the Knicks want these two picks? There are not enough rookies."

"Wouldn't this mean firing a veteran?"

Tim Thomas here has been frightened for a year, and finally waited for this moment. When this moment actually came, he didn't feel particularly sentimental, but took the initiative to run to Jiang Chao's office and hug him.

"The Timberwolves may give you more opportunities. You won't be able to play for much time with the Knicks. It's not good to delay the afterglow of your contract year." Jiang Chao is telling the truth. The Knicks no longer have room for Tim Thomas, and Tim Thomas himself

It should be clearest.

"Okay, come on next season!"

"Bai Bai~" Jiang Chao gave him a set of superb sports equipment as a gift.

Liu Yan and others in the office have also seen the changes in Jiang Chao within a year. Now, breaking up with players is no longer just about players swearing and blocking the door. Everyone is basically friendly and kind. This is also Jiang Chao's way of convincing the public.

…

Indiana.

Bird, who was watching the rookies play at a joint tryout, suddenly received a call from his boss:

"The Knicks traded for the No. 17 pick!"

"Um????"

Bird is now very sensitive to the No. 17 pick. He has been using his connections for the past ten days to check out the players the Timberwolves want to select with the No. 17 pick.

Because the first-round pick they have is the Knicks' No. 18 pick!

Then he also saw the news sent to him by the management.

I am Cao???

"You backstabbed me????"

Brother Bird was immediately angry. Does this mean he is teasing the Pacers with applause?

Uncle Bird was very angry and the consequences were serious.

After scolding junior Sean Marks, he asked Jiang Chao to talk to him by name.

"What are you doing? What do you mean??"

This is also said for all Pacers fans.

You've won the bet, is the 17th pick trying to intercept my player or something?

You have to know that the outside world doesn't know whether the Timberwolves want to trade with the Knicks or the Knicks took the initiative. From the perspective of the Pacers, isn't this disgusting?

Jiang Chao: "Don't worry, I won't steal your people, and I won't talk nonsense when I promise to give you advice. You can just sit back and train as you like. I will give you the best advice on the day of the draft, otherwise I will tell you now."

I’m afraid you won’t be able to hide it.”

"No, how do you explain this today?"

Jiang Chao snorted speechlessly:

"What's the explanation? Sampson took the initiative to contact us, and they happened to only have the 17th overall pick."

"Okay, let me tell you, if you dare to lie to me and choose my players, even if I come back, I won't make the Knicks feel better for you."

"Oh... Then I really look forward to your comeback, or I can really choose the players you want." Jiang Chao said with a smile, not afraid of any threats at all.

Forcing the king to come back, is this a point of attraction?

The king almost broke the defense in anger, looked at the two defenders on the field and said:

"Let me tell you, I want to choose Eric Bledsoe and Bradley, don't touch these two!"

"Okay, okay, see you at the draft."

Jiang Chao exchanged a few pleasantries and then hung up the phone. He really had a good eye for forcing the king. These two are two of the few guards who came out of the 10th generation. One is a blood-stained defender, James.

One is a super defensive player, a T0-level defensive player. If the Pacers really choose one of these two, it would be pretty good.

But if this is all, it will definitely not bring about qualitative changes to the Pacers, because whether it is Bledsoe or Bradley, their subsequent fate is quite outrageous, and they are always one step behind me in winning the championship.

If he really wants to give advice to the Pacers, Jiang Chao will definitely give him the final advice, and Bird, as an inside mentor, must also play a role.

…

As the internet buzzed about the Knicks' first move.

Knicks internal players and rookies in the joint trial are also talking about it, including Bledsoe and Cole Aldridge, who are thinking that the Knicks will choose them.

Hayward and his team are also extremely nervous. The Knicks management has not yet given them an accurate answer. They love and hate the Knicks like licking dogs, but there is no way, the young coach can't

He is just the head coach, and he can only comfort Hayward to believe in the process.

Just copy Jiang Chao’s chicken soup and you’re done.

While the Knicks players are speculating on the new players, they have also begun to gather for training. As a big talker, Harden also revealed early that he had received 5 moves from Jiang Chao.

And he also knew that Jiang Chao's fifth pick should be given to George. After all, he had already taught George three moves.

"What, for George?"

"If you have a request, didn't you expect that Paul George has been practicing in major gyms in New York recently?"
