"So, you're saying that in your eyes, the future of the team is just to work hard to get into the playoffs?”
"If Anthony comes, won't the team make it into the playoffs?”
Wang Ran asked.
"This…"
Holly was speechless.
He was immersed in the sorrow of losing Lovell and did not calm down to think carefully.
What he exchanged with Lovell was the Kaleidoscope attack, Carmelo Anthony!
In terms of offensive skills and experience, Anthony was definitely stronger than Lovell.
Moreover, the team's backfield was currently crowded and there was a shortage of strikers. It was indeed a reasonable choice to exchange a defender for a striker.
"But…"
"But…"
Holly was speechless for a long time.
Her rationality slowly suppressed her emotions.
"Are you trying to say that Lovell is still young and we can build a team around Lovell and Embiid?”
"The team will become a strong team in the East in the next few years. Is that what you mean?”
Wang Ran asked with a smile.
"Yes, yes, yes, that's what I mean!"
Holly nodded repeatedly.
As a scouting director, Holly valued the development of players more.
If Lovell was left behind, coupled with Embiid, the Nets would not continue to be at the bottom for at least the next few years.
"So, what you mean is that I should let go of this season's championship and let the rookie bonus slowly disappear?”
Wang Ran asked.
The reason why the team's total salary was so low was mainly because Rose was the only big contract on the team.
Embiid's contract was a rookie contract, so it was very cost-effective.
In addition, Ding Weidi and Joe Harris had a basic salary, and Lin Shuhao only had a contract of ten million.
Including Anthony, who had just been traded, the team still had about 20 million in salary space.
If they didn't fight for the championship this season, they would be able to earn a lot of money in a few years.
How many of them could be retained by relying on the salary cap to renew their contracts?
"This…"
Holly thought for a moment. What Wang Ran said did make sense.
Although Holly was a little emotional, he was still quite capable. Otherwise, he wouldn't have picked Lovell with the 20th pick this year.
It seemed that Allen, the potential center next year, was also selected by him.
With Wang Ran's reminder, Holly instantly understood.
"Oh right, I heard that you made a bet with a few supervisors."
"If the Nets make it to the playoffs, you'll run around the court naked, right?”
Wang Ran suddenly asked with a smile.
"Ah! This…"
Holly's body trembled, and his old face turned red.
If Wang Ran hadn't mentioned this, he would have forgotten about it.
Two months ago, he would never have believed that the Nets could make it to the playoffs.
but now
Through magical trades, Wang Ran successively exchanged for a dominant center like Embiid, Ross, who miraculously recovered from his injuries, and Anthony Kaleidoscope, who still had the strength of an All-Star.
In addition, Covington, Lin Shuhao, Ding Weidi, Scola and other strong substitutes
Entering the playoffs?
It was even possible for him to enter the top four in the Eastern region!
If the team operated properly in the middle of the season, it was not impossible for them to enter the Eastern Conference or even the finals!
Holly calmed down and thought about it carefully. After Wang Ran came to the team, every operation seemed a little unreasonable at the time, but after looking at it,
It was all godlike!
This made Holly, who originally disliked Wang Ran, involuntarily feel a trace of admiration.
Could this man really bring the Nets out of the abyss and aim for the championship?
Holly thought about it, and it seemed possible!
Something's not right!
If he won the championship, wouldn't he have to run around the game?
this
"Holly, you shouldn't be studying next year's rookies for now.”
"Look at the players on the free market or on the fringe of other teams.”
"In the next period of time, the team has to continue to replenish their strength.”
Wang Ran instructed.
Holly was a capable person, and Wang Ran wasn't the kind of person who liked to suck up to his subordinates. So as long as Holly didn't do his job half-heartedly, Wang Ran was still willing to use him.
"Alright!"
Holly nodded, and then he felt conflicted.
If he tried hard to find the right players for the team, wouldn't he be pushing himself into a deep pit?
hey
For the sake of the team, forget it, I'll go all out!
Holly walked out of the office with a long face, ready to work overtime.
