It was June 25th, 2003. Atlanta Airport, VIP waiting area.
Shen Xiao, Mo Lei, and Magical Beast Howard were waiting to board the plane.
Ding!
"Hey, Jason, using the first round draft pick for the next three years in exchange for the top pick in the hands of our Cavaliers? I'm not changing!"
"Reggie Miller 05 first round pick in exchange for our Cavaliers 'first pick? NO!”
"Jason Kidd 05 first round pick in exchange for the first pick? We have decided not to exchange!"
Morey was very busy. He received a total of 12 calls from managers, all of which were from mid-to-upper league teams. They all wanted to trade for the top pick in the hands of the Cavaliers.
Howard was chatting with Shen Xiao. He jokingly described the talent show this time."Hey, Shen, Mo Lei's voice is like a fan. Bang ~ Bang!"
"Yes, Le Bulang is indeed the chosen one. He shocked the entire NBA.”Shen Xiao nodded with an indifferent expression.
When Lebrang was in high school, he had attracted the attention of the entire country. ESPM made an exception to broadcast his match!
"Shen, will you really use the top scorer to sign Le Bulang?”
"Of course, that's for sure. In the future, Lebrang will be the leader of the team, while Nash will be the second leader and you will be the third leader.”
Shen Xiao nodded without hesitation. He used an unquestionable tone and began to instill the status of the locker room in Magical Beast.
"Dwight, this time, you're going to New York with me.”
"Phew, these managers are treating us Knights like fools.”Mo Lei hung up the phone and heaved a sigh of relief.
"Morey, there are other teams. Should we make a trade request for our players?”
"Not yet, because most of the players we have left are role-playing players.”
"By the way, help me check on a player. Which team is he on now? Or... Or did he become a free agent?"
"Rajabel. I need his fierce defense." Shen Xiao relied on the memories of his previous life and suddenly remembered this famous basketball court villain.
If there were any fans who remembered, it was Kobe, who had strangled him. It was this person-Rajabel!
"Okay, I'll call the team's scout, Lawrence.”
Mo Lei nodded and immediately made a call to pass down his orders.
After a while, the call came back.
"General Manager, Raja Bell, a player, joined the Mavericks as a free agent last season and signed a one-year contract. Averaged 5.7 points and 3.0 rebound per game, excellent defense, and helped the Mavericks reach the Western Conference finals. The Mavericks did not renew his contract and he was now a free agent.”said scout Lawrence.
"Alright then, immediately send an invitation to Raja Bale in the name of the team. Give him a 2 2 contract, and the next two years are the team's options.”Morey made a prompt decision and decided to sign Lagabel.
"What about the annual salary?"
"Four years…12.68 million." After careful consideration, Mo Lei gave the contract. It could be considered a careful calculation.
Four years, an average annual salary of three million. Moreover, Morey had deliberately left a way out. For the next two years, if Bale's performance was not good, the team could choose not to implement it.
"Alright, I'll talk to Rajabel personally. Then, the scout Lawrence hung up the phone.
" Let's go to Gate F12." Shen Xiao stood up and walked out of the waiting room.
A boeing 737 plane flew into the blue sky and headed for the distant New York.
................
The 2003 NBA draft was held on the morning of June 27th at New York's Maiden Square Garden.
" Hello, everyone. There's a new batch of players joining the NBA…" NBA President David Stern stood on stage and began to say familiar words in front of the national live broadcast.
In the small green room that belonged to the Knights, Shen Xiao personally wrote LeBlanc James 'name.
"The first pick in the first round, the pick of the Clippers, the small forward from St. Vincent St. Mary High School, LeBlanc James!!”David Stern said his name without hesitation.
" Wow! Top scorer!!!"
"Little Emperor, the top scorer!"
The scene of the talent show was in an uproar. LeBlanc James stood up excitedly and hugged his mother. He walked onto the stage and put on the red baseball cap that belonged to the Knight. He ran onto the stage to shake hands with Stern and gave a speech.
" The second pick in the first round, the detroit-based pistons chose dakolmi_icic…"
Then, Stern continued to read, almost like in his previous life. The Nuggets chose Melo, the Raptors chose Bosh, and the Heat chose Wade.
"Mo Lei, contact Le Bulang's agent immediately. We want to sign him for five years.”
Shen Xiao looked at Mo Lei with a serious expression without hesitation.
"Price? Annual salary?"
