Chapter 195
This can be seen from one year after Nash and Howard joined the Lakers, in fact, these players are not compatible.
This is also no way, each team can only have one big core with the ball, once there are too many players with the ball, the team will have a strong sense of stagnation.
At that time, although the Lakers looked very strong on paper, they didn't play many games. This was the result of the mismatch of players.
If the Hornets have their own prophets, then they can really make good use of Kobe and Nash to make a big deal.
But the management of the Hornets has never had a normal head. If you want to expect them to have any forward-looking vision or superb transactions, then you are really expecting too much.
You simply cannot expect a pig to suddenly learn operations management.
The Portland Trail Blazers selected Jermaine O'Neal with the No. 17 pick.
For this player, Zhao Qiang felt it was a pity. He was another player who was destroyed by injuries. You must know that O'Neal's low-post skills are very top-notch.
If it weren't for the injury, I believe Jermaine O'Neal will be more sought-after in the NBA, and his career will have more bright moments.
You must know that when he first entered the NBA, O'Neal was an existence that could not be ignored.
Then the selection process continued, and the names were called one by one, and no one chose Da Ben until the draft night was over.
Daben was very disappointed. Could it be that he was so disliked by others?
Zhao Qiang knew this result, and these people underestimated Daben, but now there is no way to prove that their vision is wrong. Only by letting Daben play in the NBA can he prove himself.
Da Ben's two younger brothers couldn't hide their disappointment, they didn't expect that there was no candidate for their elder brother, obviously he was so outstanding.
Big Ben's mother kept comforting the two younger brothers.
Zhao Qiang also came over to comfort Da Ben, "Brother, I don't want to talk about anything else. I just want to say that as long as I have basketball to play, then you will also have basketball to play. No brothers, no basketball."
Although Daben was lost, Zhao Qiang always did what he said. He had 100% trust in his brother, so he believed that Zhao Qiang would definitely take him to the NBA.
After the draft was over, Zhao Qiang returned home and received a call from the manager of the Phoenix Suns at night.
"Hi, manager."
"Zhao, let me inform you that you don't need to report to the Suns after three days, you can go directly to Philadelphia."
Zhao Qiang didn't expect to trade himself so soon, but it didn't matter, anyway, he himself felt that Sun Pair was not suitable for him.
The main reason is that his own playing style is not suitable for the overall style of the Suns.
Of course, Zhao Qiang was also thinking, why did the Philadelphia 76ers choose him?
They have already chosen No. [-] pick Iverson, why should they choose themselves? You must know that your own style of play is based on yourself. Of course, you can also choose to play without the ball, but the premise is that your teammates must Just work hard.
After the manager of the Suns contacted Zhao Qiang, the manager of the Philadelphia 76ers called.
"็ Hello Who are you?"
"Hi Zhao, I'm the manager of the Philadelphia 76ers."
"Hello."
"Zhao, I have already proposed a deal to the Suns and got you. I think you are very suitable for our team. I believe that with your partnership with Iverson, we in Philadelphia can achieve good results."
This is an upward transaction for Philadelphia. I have to say that their sincerity is very high. You must know that in this case, Philadelphia has to pay a lot of price.
However, Zhao Qiang still wants to make his own request, which is his brother Daben.
"Thank you for your trust. I believe you also know that I have only one request after losing so many teams, and that is to play with my brother Big Ben."
Anyway, Daben is also out of the draft now, and now he can sign the team at will.
When the manager of Philadelphia heard it, it turned out that it was just signing an undrafted pick. That's no problem. Philadelphia still has the ability to sign an undrafted pick.
"No problem, we agreed to your request."
The big rock in Zhao Qiang's heart finally fell, and the job he arranged for his brother gave him the opportunity to enter the NBA. Even if he was not under Zhao Qiang's arrangement, Daben could still enter the NBA.
But Zhao Qiang believes that as long as Daben is by his side, he can get a big contract earlier and make his family live better earlier.
"Thank you, manager. I will report to Philadelphia according to the agreed time. I look forward to our meeting."
After hanging up the phone, Zhao Qiang immediately called Da Ben.
"Brother has good news for you, we can play together again."
Upon hearing this, Da Ben asked, "Are the Suns willing to sign me?"
Zhao Qiang explained: "My brother is not the Suns, but the Philadelphia 76ers, and I was also traded to Philadelphia."
Big Ben was surprised, "Didn't they sign Iverson? Why do they want us?"
Zhao Qiang said with a smile: "It's not easy, because we are cheap and capable."
What Zhao Qiang said is true.
As rookies, they are equivalent to very cheap combat power.
The 76ers were also equivalent to completely overthrowing and rebuilding last season, so they had a chance to get the No. [-] pick and sign Iverson.
They won Iverson in the No. [-] pick, which is to build a championship lineup with Iverson as the core.
It can be said that Iverson has this strength.
Then I can't let the team trade me now, after all, I haven't played my worth yet, and I don't have the right to speak.
One problem with going to the 76ers is how to be compatible with Iverson?In your first year as a rookie, Zhao Qiang still hopes to lead Daben to play their role, their strength, and their worth.
And Iverson played the position of shooting guard. In fact, the position had some conflicts with Zhao Qiang himself.
Fortunately, Zhao Qiang is a combo guard who can control the ball and score, so he is not afraid of being robbed by Iverson.
As for how to win the game, I believe that as long as I tell them how to win, as far as Iverson's golf quotient is concerned, he will not make a wrong choice.
In 96, the players were not so utilitarian that they only cared about their personal data and ignored the team's record.
Every player wants to compete for victory.
And my own life experience is much richer than Iverson's. It is very easy to deal with a young player.
With a super scorer like Iverson in the team, the burden on his shoulders can be a little easier. .
