Chapter 67 Nowitzki and Nash

There are still two hours left before the Grizzlies' match against the Mavericks begins.

Jiang Dongbing changed Mobley's binding to Jackson, preparing to take advantage of this main competition to let Jackson make good progress in training.

Mobley's attributes are too low in all aspects now, so he can't use the main competition to improve his progress.

Although Jiang Dongbing has recruited many young players with outstanding talents, Jackson is still his favorite and valued player in the Grizzlies. Of course, he wants Jackson to improve his strength as much as possible.

...

During the warm-up session of the game, Jiang Dongbing took the initiative to walk to the opponent's sidelines and prepared to chat with Old Nelson for a while.

"Jiang, it's really unbelievable. Your vision for this year's draft is really good." Old Nelson smiled and praised Jiang Dongbing.

The reason he said that Jiang Dongbing had a good talent in drafting is undoubtedly because Brad Miller. As for Jackson, everyone knows that Jackson is very strong. If it were other teams, without David, he would definitely choose Jackson, so naturally there is no question of whether he has a good vision or not.

Jiang Dongbing waved his hand and said, "It's over-reward, Mr. Nelson, your draft this year is also good."

"Oh? How do you say this? You must know that our rookie has not shown any decent strength yet." Old Nelson smiled strangely.

There are many rookies who have joined the team this year, and of course the most popular is German rookie Nowitzki, but old-school coaches like Old Nelson are more inclined to let the rookies settle for a while and polish the temperament of these rookies.

So Nowitzki didn't play for too long in his debut, only a mere 16 minutes, and his performance was hard to describe.

He made all the 5 shots and scored two points with only free throws. In the end, he only got 2 points, 4 assists and 1 foul.

Such a first-time show data is obviously not very outstanding. Old Nelson even thought Jiang Dongbing was damaging his poor vision.

"I have only played one game now." Jiang Dongbing replied with a smile.

Old Nelson patted his forehead, "By the way, I happen to have something to talk to you Grizzlies, and I want to hear what you think before discussing with Stewart."

"The Grizzlies have extremely sufficient salary space now. I wonder if you can swallow the contract of Ac Green for us?"

Jiang Dongbing's face tightened. Good guy, swallow the contract of Ac Green? That's not a decimal.

Currently, the NBA's salary cap this season is 30 million US dollars, and the Mavericks' salary space is more than two-thirds of the four players.

If these four players are very strong, it is not harmful and is in line with the normal salary distribution of a team.

But Mavericks owner Rose Palott is a stupid basketball goalkeeper with a lot of money, and the salary of several players in the team is extremely unreasonable.

Currently, the highest salary in the Mavericks is Dazhutan Bradley, whose salary is as high as 6.75 million US dollars, which is simply eye-catching.

You should know that postman Malone's salary this year is only 6.15 million US dollars, and the Pacers' leader Reggi Miller's salary is only more than 6 million.

It is true that Bradley's defense is quite shocking, but after deducting the defense, Bradley said it was useless. The data of about 11 points and 8 rebounds last season is not worth the price no matter how you look at it.

Michael Finley ranked second in salary, with a total of 6 million US dollars. There is no big problem with this salary. After all, Finley has an average of 2054 per game.

Next ranked third is Ac Green, whose salary is as high as 5.13 million US dollars. Considering his average of 7 points and 8 rebounds per game, this contract is not suitable no matter how you look at it.

Even if Green is self-disciplined, even if his boy is good at practicing, he is not worth the annual salary of more than 5 million US dollars.

Ac Green's boy skills are quite well-known. It is rumored that he did not lose his body until he was 39 years old...

Robert Pike, who ranks fourth in salary, has a salary of nearly four million, and can only contribute about 8 points and 3.5 assists per game. By the way, he is a point guard...

Even if these four people occupy 22 million of the salary cap of nearly 30 million, it is no wonder that coaches like Old Nelson have to wait for several years to pull the Mavericks out of the quagmire.

When Jiang Dongbing heard what Old Nelson meant, it was obvious that Old Nelson also realized the current salary structure problem of the Mavericks and was ready to deal with it.

If not deal with it, the Mavericks will have no possibility of taking off in at least two seasons in the next year.

If you don’t have the salary space, you can’t sign a strong free agent. You are hoping to win the championship through the new players you train. You don’t know if it’s the Year of the Monkey and Horse Month.

"Mr. Nelson, you must be very clear about the situation of our Grizzlies. You are losing money every year, unless there are obvious benefits. I think Stewart will not be willing to swallow the contract of Ac Green." Jiang Dongbing did not hide it and told the truth.

"Of course there are benefits, but if there is no benefit, I won't mention this."

"Picks, cash, players, what do you want? As long as the price is right, we can agree." Nelson said.

Jiang Dongbing looked happy, "Staff are OK?"

"Okay, of course, who do you like?"

"Can Dirk Nowitzki take action? If you are willing to use Dirk as a price, I am willing to help you talk to Stewart." Jiang Dongbing tried his best to restrain his excitement, making his tone seem more plain.

If Nowitzki can really win, let alone swallowing Green's contract, even if Parker's four million dollar contract is swallowed together, there will be no problem.

It’s not that Nowitzki is now, mainly because the veteran driver has a good reputation. He has never made any bullshit news about his debut for so many years.

Moreover, Nowitzki's historical status is much higher than those outstanding players Jiang Dongbing has.

Currently, the most accomplished player in Jiang Dongbing is Billups, but even Billups can't tell whether he can rank among the top ten point guards in history.

It can even be said that Billups cannot enter the top ten, because Billups' name does not exist on any list of the top ten point guards in history.

Nowitzki is a foregone conclusion of the top five forwards in history, and the two are obviously not the same concept.

"No, you can change one?" Nelson refused straight away.

Jiang Dongbing's mouth twitched, and he said so simply and decisively, but now he changed his mind immediately.

But thinking about it, Old Nelson would not have done such a stupid thing. Nowitzki is the high pick they just selected. It can be said that they are their future core player, so it is impossible for them to just send it out like this.

"Where is Steve Nash?" Jiang Dongbing asked again.

Old Nelson shook his head again, "Young man, I find that your vision is really good. Just open your mouth and ask for two cornerstone players of our team."

"Steve is certainly even more impossible."
