Chapter 991 Trading O'Neill
Gao Yuanyuan and Bill Duffy were the busiest, busy looking for targets among some high school students who were invited to participate in the training for free.
The difference this time is that many people in the boxing world have signed up. There are always dozens of people.
Including several world champions, such as Pacquiao and Mayweather, or GGG, and even Klitschko contributed [-] US dollars to Li Ba.
The gathering of the top players in basketball and professional boxing at Li Ba's training camp caused a worldwide sensation, allowing Li Ba and his fly-catching training camp to once again dominate the world's sports headlines.
"Boss."
Rajon Rondo, who came to the training camp, saw Li Ba and shouted.
"Rajon, how is your stay with the Celtics? Do you want to come back?" Li Ba asked with a smile.
"Is there any chance for me to come back?" Rajon asked in surprise.
"I don't know, let's see the opportunity. By the way, how is your shooting practice?" Li Ba asked.
Rajan said embarrassingly: "My hands are too big, boss, I really can't practice shooting."
"Your hands are bigger than mine?"
Li Ba slapped Rondo's face so that he couldn't see it.
Rondo moved his head away in embarrassment, and quibbled: "But boss, I have practiced layups and throws well now. Last season, I shot more than [-]% at the basket."
"How many shots have you made in total? Six times? Are you willing to tell me?" Li Ba said angrily.
"Puchi!" Parker passing by laughed.
Seeing the small sports car, Li Ba asked, "Tony, you're here too? Are you still with the Lakers?"
"Yes, Hammer." Parker said.
"Didn't Coach Popovich call you?" Li Ba laughed.
Shaking his head, Parker said, "We've talked, but I'm pretty good in the Lakers."
"You join my training camp, what do you want to improve?" Li Ba asked.
"Defense of course, I hope to increase my one-on-one defensive ability." Parker said.
"One-on-one? Then the fly-catching training in front of you is the first thing you need to do, because it will make your first step in front of you faster, your hands will be more accurate, and your attention will be easier to concentrate. Overall, it will make you The instant burst is stronger and faster.
But don't fall behind in other aspects, such as the fly-catching training behind you, which can make you turn around faster, and once you are broken by your opponent, you can catch up with him faster. "Li Ba said.
"Hey, Hammer?" Marion called from the side.
"Sean, how are you and Stephen in the Grizzlies?" Li Ba went over and asked with a smile.
"We're not bad." Marion laughed.
"That's good." Li Ba smiled.
"Hey, Hammer," someone yelled from behind.
"Gary? I heard you joined our coaching staff?" It turned out to be Payton, Li Ba smiled.
"Yes, I took a year off after retiring, and I'm back this season." Payton said with a smile.
"That's good. As a coach, you can still get some more rings." Li Ba laughed.
Peyton laughed and nodded repeatedly.
Li Ba turned around and felt that this training camp was an off-court social occasion. The players who usually left after the game had a platform to communicate with each other here.
While instructing these people in training, Li Ba took the time to talk with Savor and the new general manager David Griffin.
Griffin's trade work is not progressing smoothly. The official training camp is about to start, and the preseason will start soon, but the team's lineup is not complete.
He gave Li Ba a team roster, Li Ba looked at it, and he was barely able to play.
Insiders: Lee Ba, O'Neal, David Lee, Boris Diaw, Antonio McDyess, Marc Gasol.
Outside: Tony Allen, Manu Ginobili, Kevin Martin, Delonte West, Grant Hill, Sean Singlet.
This is a roster of 12 people, all of whom have contracts.
Among them, Singlet is this year's second-round pick, a point guard, and signed a 1+1 basic salary.
In this lineup, first of all, the defense of the substitute lineup is gone, and there are completely inside and outside lines.
The main lineup, the inside line is okay, and the second and third positions on the outside line are also okay. The point guard position depends on West's performance, which is hard to say.
"David, have you talked to the shark?"
"Yes, he insisted on the main center position."
"Then let's trade him." Li Ba said.
Griffin opened his mouth wide. He didn't know that Li Ba was a shareholder, and Li Ba didn't interfere with the team's operations before. Is he going to intervene now?
He glanced at Savor next to him, who nodded without saying anything.
Savor couldn't have had a problem, the team's season ticket sales had just ended, and the situation was too exciting for him.
Last season's season tickets plummeted, and this season has completely recovered the lost ground, which shows that Li Ba's influence and box office appeal in Phoenix are still extremely strong.
The boss agreed, and Griffin couldn't say anything more. He tentatively said: "Hammer, if you play the [-]th position, Tony Allen is the [-]rd position, Ginobili is the [-]nd position, and West is the [-]st position. Is this the main lineup?"
Li Ba shook his head and said, "He and I both need enough space, we cannot coexist."
Griffin nodded and said: "I have indeed considered trading O'Neal, but no team can accept his big contract now. I will try my best to trade. There are still goals. So, do you have any suggestions for other positions? "
"It would be the best if the No. [-] position can be strengthened." Li Ba said.
"Okay, I try to finish the work between the start of the regular season, if not, it can only be done during the season." Griffin said.
Li Ba said at this time: "Let me talk about the goal of this season first. It is not to be bad. My team will never be bad. This is the bottom line."
Savor and Griffin opened their mouths. They still wanted to fight for the No. 09 pick in [-], but it was a mess.
Savor nodded and said: "Since you have confidence in Hammer, let's set a goal for the next season and win the championship?"
"Of course, if I don't win the championship, why would I want to come back? I want to make money, so I can go straight to boxing. A fight is worth hundreds of millions of dollars. One or two fights a year is enough for my wife and children. Isn't it better than playing basketball?" Li Ba said.
Savor and Griffin only felt a toothache after hearing this.
After the three of them finished their meeting, Li Ba called O'Neill.
At this time, O'Neal was on vacation on the beach in Miami. After receiving the call, he said, "Hammer, you guy, did you tell me that I was traded?"
Li Ba smiled and said, "Good news, you are not traded."
"So what's the bad news?" O'Neill said angrily.
"You are being traded." Li Ba said.
"Shet!" O'Neal swears.
"Shaq, I'm sorry, we can't play at the same time." Li Ba said.
"I understand, you bastard!" O'Neill cursed and hung up the phone directly.
