NBA beast center

Chapter 680 Crazy Recruitment

In addition to the first-round pick, the Nets selected power forward Vanderbilt from the University of Kentucky with the 40th pick in the second round!

Beast has seen Vanderbilt's ability in his previous life. He is a hard-working man who is good at rebounding and doing dirty work. He is a very passionate forward. Beast himself also likes it very much.

It is definitely not a loss to get him in the second round.

The Nets used their 45th pick in the second round to select forward and guard swingman Diallo, also from the University of Kentucky.

The Beast remembered that Diallo had won the NBA Slam Dunk Contest, and he was a kid with extremely strong physical fitness. He thought that this guy might be able to train with some training.

On June 6, Beast took Jeff Green's contact information from former teammate James. After getting in touch, he and Beaubois immediately set off for Jeff Green's hometown in Sheflin, Maryland.

On the other hand, he asked Jeremy Lin to recruit Ed Davis.

Ed Davis and Jeremy Lin were teammates in the Lakers. The two cooperated very well at the time, and they played very well in the pick-and-roll.If it weren't for the Lakers coach Byron Scott receiving an order from the management to want to play badly, the cooperation of the two will make the Lakers' record not so bad.

Ed Davis also signed a three-year contract worth $3 million with the Trail Blazers because of his outstanding performance that season.

Ed Davis is a fast-moving pie-eating insider. He has a strong pie-eating ability and is not a buttery player, but lacks shooting ability and independent offensive ability. On the defensive end, he lacks the strength and tonnage of top defense big centers.

The purpose of the Beast wanting him is to fill the vacancy that the team lacks in this type of player, and to allow him and Jeremy Lin to play pick-and-rolls to stimulate their pick-and-roll energy.

Sheflin, MD.

The Beast and Beaubois invited Jeff Green to meet for a meal at a local 5-star hotel.

Beast and Jeff Green are not familiar. The two can only be said to have played in the league for many years. They can be regarded as nodding acquaintances, but they are not friends.

Jeff Green doesn't talk much. He played for the Cavaliers last season, and Beast left the Cavaliers before last season, so the two haven't really teamed up.

In the second round of the Eastern Conference playoffs last season, the Nets defeated the Cavaliers, reached the Eastern Conference Finals, and finally reached the Finals. They lost to Universe Yong and missed the championship.

The two had a direct confrontation in the playoffs, and Jeff Green knew how powerful the beast was.

"Jeff, I like to be direct, I'm straight to the point, I want to join forces with you!" Beast said bluntly at the dinner.

Jeff Green didn't expect that The Beast didn't beat around the bush at all, it was very simple and direct.He seemed a little shy and didn't know how to answer for a while.But deep down in his heart, he was very happy.Who doesn't want to be needed and valued by others, not to mention that the man in front of him was recognized as the strongest man in the league last season, and the Nets were also the overall runner-up last season. As one of the opponents, he was very impressive.

Beast continued: "You know, we didn't win the championship last season. We were kicked by the Golden State Warriors and we lost. I deeply feel the lack of our forward strength. Jeff, we need your ability very much. I believe you can help us, we will compete with the Warriors for the championship again next season!"

Beast's words really touched Jeff Green's heart.He has played in the NBA for 11 seasons, but still has not won a championship ring.He is eager to win a championship. He joined the Cavaliers with a basic salary last season in order to get closer to the championship.

Unexpectedly, the Cavaliers stopped in the second round of the Eastern Conference last season and were out early.The goal of the Cavaliers in the offseason is to keep James, but judging from the current situation, it is very difficult to keep James.

Without keeping James, the Cavaliers will try to delay other operations as much as possible.

The Cavaliers have not yet discussed the contract extension with Jeff Green. Several other teams have recruited him with a basic salary. He is hesitating who to sign with.

Unexpectedly, the beast personally came to invite him!

Jeff Green feels very face-saving. He has also received recruitment invitations before. Some stars just make a phone call, send a text message, etc., like a beast, come to invite in person, but there are really no.

Jeff Green thought about it in his mind. The current lineup of the Nets is indeed very short of strikers. If they go by themselves, even if they can't start, they can still become an important part of the team's rotation. This is what attracts him very much.

He can sacrifice the amount of the contract, but if he doesn't even have the chance to play, then it doesn't make much sense for him to join a championship team. In the case of "laying the crown", what is the gold content of this ring?

Beast didn't say much, and he didn't make any promises to Jeff Green. He just used actions to make the other party trust him, knowing that they valued him, wanted him, and made him feel.

After the meal, Jeff Green made a decision: "Tom, you came all the way to invite me, you are so refreshing, I don't think I should be too unhappy, so, I promise you, I am willing to join the Nets !"

As soon as the words fell, Beast smiled, got up and hugged Jeff Green: "Jeff, we will have a good cooperation, not just next season!"

Hearing this, Jeff Green's mood became better.He knows how powerful the Beast is in the Nets. Not only does he know it, but everyone in the league basically knows it.

The Beast said in the Nets that he wanted to sign someone, and the Nets owner Tsai Chongxin and general manager Sean Marx would never say no.Even James doesn't have as much influence in the Cavaliers as he does.

Jeff Green felt that he had made a decision today that did not require much thought!The performance of the Nets next season will not be bad. The Beast is only 28 years old and it is the beginning of its peak period. This team is very young. Their next first-round picks are all their own. It can also be traded to make the team's lineup more reasonable.The atmosphere of this team is very good, and the boss of the team is so courteous and corporal, he feels that this is the perfect place for him right now.

The next day, Jeff Green invited Beast and Beaubois to visit his alma mater, Northwestern High School.Everyone was in a very happy mood. They also had a group photo with the players who had coached the school team in the school.

Beast and Beaubois said goodbye to Jeff Green the next evening, and they flew out of Maryland overnight.

Beast left in such a hurry because he was going to participate in the 2017-18 season NBA awards ceremony!

The 2017-2018 season NBA awards ceremony will be held on June 6 at the famous Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, California.The Beast was predicted to win last season's regular season MVP trophy.
