Chapter 122 Sending warmth to the piston
Jiang Dongbing is definitely not crazy. From God's perspective, Grant Hill's value to the Grizzlies may not be as valuable as Christie Gogh. Even if Hill can stay healthy all the time, there will be no such injury that ruins his career under normal circumstances.
If there are no large number of stars in the Grizzlies, then there will definitely be no problem in winning Hill as the core of the team.
But now there are a lot of people in the Grizzlies who can be the core team building. Jackson, Billups and even O'O can be the core team building. Hill, who is not as good as Christie's three-pointer, is actually worthless.
It was precisely because Jiang Dongbing knew that the Piston had no decent chips in his hand that he asked Stewart in a teasing tone.
Stewart waved his hand with a wry smile, "I have a good relationship with Pistons head coach Gentry, and I have always had contact with you."
"It is precisely because of this relationship that I mentioned their affairs to you. If it were other teams, I would definitely forget their bad offer."
This made Jiang Dongbing even more curious. He didn't know what kind of offer the Piston had issued, and he actually asked Stewart to say such words.
"Stewart, let's talk, I'm curious about what kind of offer the Piston gave." Jiang Dongbing urged.
Stewart cleared his throat, and maybe he was embarrassed to say that in his heart, the offer was simply a joke.
"Joe Dumas, Ben Wallace and the first round pick we owe him." Stewart said embarrassedly.
In his opinion, this transaction price was simply outrageous. Dumas said he was going to retire at the end of the season, but the Pistons signed him for another year, gave him $500,000 a year, and put him in the transaction price.
If Dumas is really devoted to the Pistons, he is just going to retire after his death. In order to exchange some good things for the Pistons, it has been extended for another year.
As for Ben Wallace in the quote, Stewart didn't even know who this guy was, and he had never had the name of such a player in his mind.
The last first-round pick is even more nonsense in Stewart's opinion. With the current record of the Grizzlies, they will definitely not be able to reach the top three in the league this season. In other words, their first-round pick next year will be the bottom pick in the first round. What value does this have? Just give it back to the Pistons directly.
It means that the Pistons took three things that were of no value and came to exchange for the powerful 3D in the championship lineup with Stewart.
No wonder Stewart was embarrassed to speak. If he hadn't had the close relationship with Gentry, he would have turned against him long ago.
"Jiang, don't have such a stunned expression."
"I also knew that the offer was extremely outrageous, so I didn't even pay much attention to that old guy Gentry at that time."
Stewart hurriedly said after seeing Jiang Dongbing's expression with a dull expression.
Jiang Dongbing was indeed shocked by this offer. What a joke? Ben Wallace is actually at the Pistons? According to Jiang Dongbing's memory, Ben should be the Washington Wizards who just ended this season.
When Jiang Dongbing heard that the Pistons were going to give the book, he looked even more strange. Is this considered sleepy? Someone gave him a pillow? He was worried about the team's inside problem before, but he didn't expect the Pistons to send such a big warmth.
"Stuart, your news is not fake, right?"
"How do I remember the Washington Wizards who Ben Wallace played for last season? How could it appear in the Pistons' trading quote?" Jiang Dongbing asked after a moment of silence.
Stewart blinked and found out that this book - Wallace is a Wizards player. "God only knew that the Pistons should have made a deal with the Wizards?"
"Well, what's the use of knowing this? Anyway, this Ben Wallace shouldn't be a reliable player."
He was right. His current big book is indeed not very reliable. Although he got some playing time with the Wizards last season, his performance was a bit hard to describe.
The average of 6 points, 8 rebounds and 2 blocks per game looks pretty good, and it is a typical blue-collar center data, but as long as you look at Daben's offensive end, it will be really outrageous.
Not to mention the hit rate of sports games, just talking about free throws, Da Ben's free throws last season was only 35.6%, which is simply outrageous.
Do you think this is his misperforming performance in a single season? It’s a big mistake. Last season he was 35.7%, and last season was even more outrageous, only 30%...
In other words, Daben's free throws are now at about 35%.
O'Neal's free throws were considered bad enough, but when compared with Da Ben, it would definitely be considered a god-level free throw.
If such a free throw shooting percentage is not used in the playoffs, it would be strange if someone did not use the Shark-cutting tactic. This is also the reason why Jiang Dongbing had not had a high nature in winning the Big Boss before.
But the situation is different now. The Grizzlies are not looking for starting centers, but substitute centers. The problem of Big Ben's free throw is not that conspicuous. If the opponent uses the Shark-cutting tactic, it will be impossible to replace Big Ben.
Jiang Dongbing was too lazy to care about how the Piston got the big book. Anyway, since the big book appeared in this transaction price, the transaction had a certain degree of operationality.
Although it is a pity to sell Christie, because of getting Artest, Christie is not a non-sale product for the Grizzlies.
But if the Pistons think of taking Christie away just by relying on these chips, it would undoubtedly be a dream.
"Christy can give them, but their chips are so outrageous. Who wants Dumas to do? Take them here to help Dumas retire?"
"Don't want Dumas, let him die in Detroit. At this age, don't wander around." Jiang Dongbing said.
Stewart was stunned. What's going on? Why did he hear Jiang Dongbing's meaning? He really wanted to make a deal with the Pistons.
This deal is a lice on the bald man's head, and he is obviously going to suffer a loss. Why did Jiang Dongbing still want to agree?
"Ginger, the Pistons really have no bargaining chips to take out. You won't think of their Hill or Starkhouse, right? This is their non-sale product!" Stewart reminded.
Jiang Dongbing shook his head, "I'm not interested in these two people, especially Nastakhouse. To be honest, I don't want to give them away for free."
"Ben Wallace, plus the first round pick we owe him, what should they add?" Jiang Dongbing frowned and thought.
Next year's 2000 draft will be a small New Year, and there are basically no decent players. No. 1 pick Kenyon Martin has no sense of presence. As for the fish that escaped the net, there is only one second round Deer King Michael Reed, and then it disappeared.
Although Clifford, Tkoglu and Quentin Richardson in this draft are pretty good, their ultimate potential is not high, and Jiang Dongbing is not very interested in these people now.
So it means that the draft pick in the year has no effect on Jiang Dongbing, and he definitely doesn't want the Pistons' draft pick next year.
Besides draft picks, the Pistons actually have nothing to trade. They can't let the Pistons take out more future draft picks to trade. Jiang Dongbing doesn't know if he is still in the Grizzlies...
"Forget it, if they have the first round pick and second round pick in 2001, they can't come up with anything." Jiang Dongbing said speechlessly.
