Details of Ray Allen and Garnett joining the Celtics in 2007. Anji Ghost Hand Between Life

Let's talk nonsense, let's continue with the previous article -

After the end of the 2005-2006 season, Danny Angie was under great pressure. The team's core Paul Pierce was very dissatisfied with Angie's operations in recent years and asked to leave the team. Head coach Doug Rivers submitted his resignation three times to request his resignation. The boss also felt dissatisfied with Angie because of the scattered record, market value decline and poor revenue. In short, Danny Angie at that time was betrayal of everyone in the Celtics, and all the pressure required Angie to make changes!

If it remains unchanged, it will die! Anji could only bet on his life with a ghost hand and give it a try!

Unexpectedly, at the beginning of the summer, Danny Angie suffered another major blow. Last season, they only won 24 wins and 58 losses, and had a bottom-to-last record in the league. Logically, the Celtics have a probability of up to 20% of the No. 1 pick and 25% of the No. 1 pick. In this group of rookies in 2007, Oden was the No. 1 pick. The No. 1 pick may be born between Kevin Durant and Al Horford. In other words, Angie is very likely to win one of these three geniuses.

But what is wrong is that Anji only drew the fifth pick, which is the lowest guaranteed pick under the rules at that time. Not only did he not get the three super rookies above, but his trading value also shrunk significantly.

Anji was not idle last season. He focused on some of the stars in bad teams and analyzed whether there was a possibility of a deal. When the draft lottery ended, he focused on Supersonics star Ray Allen. Because Supersonics drew the No. 2 draw, they are likely to win Kevin Durant and train them as the cornerstone. The former boss Ray Allen is very likely to be put on the shelves.

The Supersonics last season were injured by Ray Allen and Rashad Lewis, resulting in the team only 31 wins and 51 losses, the lowest winning rate in 21 years of team history. Head coach Bob Hill took the blame for this and was removed from his post in May 2007. Ray Allen and Lewis were indignant about Hill's resignation and publicly published articles on their own social media to mock the management. There is also a reason why Ray Allen and Lewis are so angry. In the past few years, the former boss of the Supersonics Ackley was hospitalized for many years due to heart disease and had no energy to manage the team. The team's record and revenue also declined year by year. In 2006, it was finally sold to an Oklahoma consortium headed by Starbucks boss Schultz.

At that time, the sale price of the Supersonics was only $2 million that was so low that it was so shocking that it was 2 million US dollars. After the team sold it, everyone discovered that the former CEO, president and general manager of the Supersonics, Wally Walker, transformed into a member of the Oklahoma consortium, which means that from a working person to a boss, the tricks that can be seen by blind people.

The most important thing is that since Schultz took over the team, he has tried every means to find various reasons to move the Supersonics from Seattle to Oklahoma. Fans, players and celebrities who have played at the Seattle Supersonics naturally strongly opposed it. Even people at the local ZF level in Seattle came forward to persuade Schultz not to do this, but Schultz was unmoved. Supersonics celebrity Gloves Payton angrily criticized Schultz -

You don't sell your coffee well, and you are involved in any basketball.

Payton unilaterally announced the ban on Starbucks on his social media. In 2017, the Thunder wanted to retire Payton's jersey, but Payton was unfamiliar with the style and said that the place where he played was called the Seattle Supersonics, not another team, and he did not need other teams to retire for himself. Payton didn't even want to mention Thunder's name. Thunder was very embarrassed at the time, and finally held a symbolic retirement ceremony, but Payton didn't go.

Schultz is also planning to send some influential stars away in order to eliminate the influence of the Supersonics, such as Rashad Lewis, who has played for the Supersonics for a full nine years, Luke Reedno, who has played for five years, and Ray Allen, who has been effective for four and a half seasons. They have all been sent away in these two years.

In fact, during the All-Star period last season, Angie asked about the feasibility of trading Ray Allen. At that time, Angie gave a quote of Szebiak + Gerald Green + Ryan Gomez + Terfil + 1-2 second round picks, but this quote did not impress the Supersonics, and Angie did not follow up.

After the end of the season, as Angie expected, both the core cores of Ray Allen and Lewis were put on the shelves by the Supersonics. Ray Allen, 32 years old, suffered a minor injury last season, but he still contributed 26+4+4 per game. His previous resume also led the team into the playoffs several times. The star attributes are about the same as Lillardley, who was in the Trail Blazers, who was a serious top star, with 3 years and 53 million left in the contract..

This offer made McHale very satisfied. In fact, Garnett almost went to Los Angeles to partner with Kobe, but when McHale told Garnett the news and asked him to make a decision, Garnett hesitated. He didn't want to stay in the West End in the same division as the Timberwolves, so he asked McHale to listen to the offer from the East End.

I guessed it myself that Garnett might be afraid of Kobe's temper. After all, Kobe's personality was notoriously bad in the circle at that time...

So McHale called Danny Angie. According to McHale afterwards, they only had less than twenty minutes of chatting and then talked about the big framework of the transaction. This big deal that changed the fate of Boston in the next twenty years happened -

Garnett = Al Jefferson + Ryan Gomez + Terphere + Gerald Green + Theo Ratliff + 2009 Celtics draft pick + 2009 Timberwolves draft pick.

In this way, Garnett, Ray Allen and Pierce, the three Boston Big Three are well-known and extremely strong on paper. Many fans and media believe that they have already played over this season.

Evaluate -

In order to whitewash James' Heat, fans accused the Boston Celtics of being the originator of the group. However, from the process of Danny Angie's formation of the Big Three, you will find that Angie started preparing early for this year four years, and even offended the team's core, head coach, boss and even fans, almost ruined himself. It can be said that he was dancing on a wire rope. For Ray Allen and Garnett, Angie's family savings in the first four years were almost wiped out.

The final three giants were formed, in addition to Anji's four years of efforts, it was also due to the right time, place and people, the turmoil of the supersonic management, the empathy of Timberwolves fans, etc. On the other hand, James, as soon as his upper and lower lips bumped, I wanted to bring my talent to the South Coast, and then he came. The Heat did not pay any price and just gave up a GOAT, the executive vice president of the league. Everyone knows what happened after

. The Heat created a new legend. They entered the finals in four years and completed two championships. The market value increased explosively. The team owner woke up in the middle of the night and had to give James one. As a player, James also won supreme honors, while James's parent team, the Cleveland Cavaliers, was in a mess.

Of course, many fans have forgotten that because the Heat lacked salary space, James actually signed first and then traded. However, this transaction seemed to have slapped Cleveland fans hard on the face after James poked Cleveland fans, because James' decision 1.0 clearly required the Heat to go to the Heat, which caused the Heat to symbolically give the Cavaliers a few irrelevant draft picks and LJ contracts.

Just like Yue Buqun in "The Smiling and Proud Wanderer", the leader of the Huashan Sect was inappropriate, and he insisted on going to Hengshan Sect to be a disciple. Originally, the Huashan Sect planned that Yue Buqun could return some reconstruction fee and repair the dilapidated mountain gate at the foot of the mountain. He could also block it when others came to attack. However, not only did he not get a penny of reconstruction fee, he was also forced to accept the quota of several old nuns of the Hengshan Sect who were empty-handed. Hengshan Sect instantly stood up in the martial arts world, and Huashan directly pulled it. Of course, Yue Buqun didn't care whether Huashan could pull it back or not. He only cared about whether he could. With the help of Dingxian and Master Dingjing, he defeated Zuo Lengchan and sat on the throne of the martial arts world.

No wonder Cleveland fans want to burn his jerseys. It's not surprising that some fans want to pull Boston out to block the gun for James. It's ridiculous. Next time I meet someone like this, please don't argue with him, because they are all smart egoistic businessmen like James.

Of course, a few years later, Linghu Chong led Huashan to become bigger and stronger. Yue Buqun said that he was the head of the Huashan Sect and came back to pick peaches...

Please don't get me wrong. I am not James. I actually like James very much, but in this period of history, people who understand people must clarify, one is one, two is two.
