This season, the league's luxury tax line was 79.86 million dollars. Even if the Hornets signed Jiang Shou, they still had more than 6 million dollars to spare.
They had a lot of space to carry out large-scale operations and transactions.
"Al-Jeffersondeserves his salary. His defense isn't good enough.”
Michael Jordan was actually giving Jeff a lot of face by saying that. His defense could no longer be described as not good enough. It was simply terrible.
"If you want to go further in the playoffs, defense is crucial, so I've decided to trade for Jeffrey!”
Jordan's first big move was to send out the team's core player, the second scoring point, al jeffson.
Letting him go could also make room for the team to a large extent.
"In addition, Gerrard Henderson, Marvin Williams, Tyrus Thomas, and Xiao Mo have to be cleared. They are not players who can bring victory.”
After Jordan finished speaking, the manager, Ricky Hill, widened his eyes.
Almost all of the players named were in the regular rotation. None of them were left alive!
However, Jordan was very determined.
If he didn't spend a lot of money, he wouldn't be able to bring about a qualitative change.
" Our point guard, Kemba Walker. This year is the last year of his contract..." Rich Hill interjected.
Jordan frowned at Kemba Walker's decision.
Walker's talent was outstanding and he had great potential, but the ceiling was visible to the naked eye.
"He is a good player, but he is not a good leader.”
Jordan said," We've found a new leader. I believe that Jiang Shou has greater potential, but Walker has to stay. I'll make the combination of Jiang Shou and Walker the strongest backcourt duo in the league!”
After some thought, Michael Jordan decided to keep Walker.
As Michael Jordan, who had won six championships, he knew very well that winning the championship was not something that could be won by one person.
When he won the championship, he had Rodman, Pippen, and other helpers.
Even if Jiang Shou became the number one player in the league, he wouldn't be able to win the championship alone. He needed a support like Walker.
Soon, after making a decision, the Hornets placed many players on the shelves.
The good news was that the players the Hornets placed on the shelves all had certain strengths and characteristics, so many of them were snatched up by other teams.
……
On the second day after he officially became a member of the Charlotte Hornets, he received a call from Kemba Walker.
"Buddy, your appearance has changed the Hornets!”
Walker's tone sounded a little grumpy.
Because al jeffson was already on the shelf and he was an option for the team in his last year, he was worried that he would be the next to be traded.
"Brother, you look less confident than when I first saw you.”Jiang Yang laughed.
"Hey, bro, this is related to my life. I don't want to be a vagrant!”
Walker's voice was a little low. It seemed that he had been really worried recently.
This guy's performance on the field was as sharp as a sword, but off the field, he was as innocent as a child.
"You don't have to ask me this question. If Michael knew how to shoot, he wouldn't have traded you.”Jiang Yang laughed.
Jiang Shou believed that Jordan would be very clear that a single-player battle would not bring the team a championship.
And if he had to choose between him and Jefferson, he would undoubtedly choose Walker.
Because Jordan knew very well that defense was the most important thing.
As for Walker, there were indeed some fans who felt that his defense was not outstanding.
However, the defensive efficiency was greatly affected by the overall defensive level of the team. In the future, Owen's defensive efficiency in the Green Kai team had soared a lot compared to that in the Cavaliers.
Walker's defense, other than the disadvantage of height, was not criticized much.
His attitude, habits, and awareness were not bad.
"Is what you said true?"
Walker heard the words of consolation from Shou Jiang, and he regained his vitality. Then, he mustered up his courage and called Michael Jordan to ask.
The result was exactly the same as what Jiang Shou had said. Michael Jordan had no intention of putting himself on the shelf.
"Heavens! Jiang, you're a god-teller!”
When Walker called Jiang Shou again after receiving the news, he was as excited as a child.
He was most happy to be able to stay with the Hornets.
"Buddy, I really didn't expect that we were opponents a few days ago, but now we're already teammates.”
Jiang Shou smiled. He was looking forward to the cooperation between him and Walker.
"That's great. I don't want to meet an opponent like you again.”
The scene of Walker being shot by Jiang Yan was still vivid in his mind.
Now that he and Jiang Shou had become teammates, there would be no more such situations on the field.
"But you have to be prepared to be beaten up by me on a daily basis.”Jiang Yang laughed.
……
On the third day after Jiang Shou signed his contract with the Hornets, the NBA made a series of big deals!
And the main team in the trade was the Charlotte Hornets!
Who else could have photoshopped it? Is everyone looking forward to it? A new day began with fresh flowers and evaluation tickets.
