Chapter 369: Transforming the Sonics (2)

Next is the power forward. Bruce is ready to make an article. Clifford Robinson and Kurt Thomas can actually be traded. The former is too old. It can be said that they are currently playing. The starting line is not a big problem, but this time will not be very long. The reason is that there is indeed a lack of a Dinghai Shenzhen character at the power forward position. The latter is not a problem with the substitute. It belongs to the kind of dispensable role, even if it is traded. Also said in the past.

The small forward position is the biggest headache for Bruce. Why? Because at the small forward position, Detrev Schramf and Dale Ellis are all veterans and they don’t even have a fresh blood. Bruce also feels drunk by relying on veterans to support this position, but as long as he thinks of the team It’s understandable if Iverson is the core organization team. After all, Iverson’s shots are now in the hands of the SuperSonics. In addition to the occasional three-pointers, these two veterans will decide the victory or defeat. Time is basically defensive.

So Bruce is also familiar with these two veterans. Whether it is now or in the past life, because most of the novels like to write about the supersonic speed, Bruce specifically Baidu the whole development of the supersonic speed and the decline and disappearance of it, it can be said Both of these veterans returned to Seattle to contribute to the SuperSonics. Because of this, Bruce can’t clean them out. After all, Bruce still prefers players who are loyal to the team. In other words, the key is attitude.

As for Kevin Gamble’s words of Lara, Brewster checked that the contract expired this year, and considering his age, this guy basically has no value in the trade. After the season is over, let him leave. Up.

As for the shooting guard, first of all, Michael Finley will definitely be selected by the Bruce for the trade. Michael Finley is too strong offensively. This guy is also a breakthrough player. Iverson is not easy to operate with him, because Iverson also likes to break through. The two of them have broken through together. It's strange to cooperate well.

Doug Christie, Bruce thinks that he should stay here for now. After all, Doug Christie’s defense is relatively sophisticated, and coupled with his Seattle local account, this is an absolute plus point. It can be said that as long as he is willing to be on the bench. Bruce wouldn't mind keeping him until retirement.

There is basically no suspense about the position of the point guard. Iverson is not for sale and will definitely not leave. Why can Terry Porter and Nate McMillan bring a substitute to teach Iverson how to organize, Ivers Sen’s organizational ability is really average, and compared to his scoring ability, it is no longer on the same level. Therefore, it is necessary to leave these two veterans to teach him. I did not see that the Bruce Hans point guard also has Mark. Jackson, a veteran, is teaching the Nash organization.

Besides, Nate McMillan won't be able to play for long. Bruce is mainly concerned about his situation, because Nate McMillan will still be the head coach later, which seems to be a good job! Therefore, keeping him is what Bruce wants to see the most. After all, there are very few players who have played for a team throughout their lives, and Nate McMillan is one of them. For this reason, the Sonics also retired his jersey for him. , Babes like this should stay in the team’s "town house" for use!

As for Chucky Atkins, the undrafted draft pick, Bruce will not trade him. It is not that his ability is very strong. On the contrary, his ability is also average. It is not a big problem to play a substitute, but because of There are already 3 players on the point guard. It would be a waste to leave him. It would be a waste to leave him to Toronto. Larry Tanebaum is planning to build a team in Toronto for an expansion draft. Will he be handed over? That's it.

Although each team in the league can protect up to 8 of its own players (including restricted free agents) from participating in the expansion draft, each team must come up with one player for the new team to choose.

But Bruce remembers as if in the 1995 expansion draft (when Vancouver and Toronto entered the league), the Orlando Magic didn’t put Darrell Armstrong, Anthony Evant, Rodney Dent and Helter Ha Mink was included in the protection list, but the Magic did not want to lose Darrell Armstrong or Haerte Hammink, so the Magic exchanged their 1996 second-round pick to Vancouver in exchange for Vancouver's 2nd in the expansion draft. The number pick picked Rodney Dent. With Rodney Dent being picked by Vancouver, Darrell Armstrong and Helt Hammink stayed.

In fact, Bruce is going to trade his Hans and the Seattle Supersonics with Toronto in this way. There is no way. Who makes Bruce even the benches when configuring the two teams is very luxurious? It would not be a pity if it was given to Canadians for nothing!

Bruce had planned for Chucky Atkins to trade with Toronto a long time ago. In the Supersonics, he is an idler who doesn’t trade him. So for now, this guy can’t leave for the time being. He must stay. I'll talk about it after the season is over.

...

So, now Bruce has analyzed the list of SuperSonic players, and has a general understanding of those players who can trade and which players will stay. The rest is to choose those who are suitable for the SuperSonics from the major teams in the league. Sen is the main player.

Who are there? !

Not long after, Bruce filtered the list of all teams, and I have to say that it really made Bruce find a few people. There are not many people but they can definitely be seamlessly connected with this supersonic team.

The first goal Bruce wanted to trade for the Sonics was Rasheed Wallace.

Rasheed Wallace, the power forward center, nicknamed "Roaring Heaven." Offensive and defensive are excellent, able to be inside and out. Players like him should be prepared for the small ball era. He is tall, strong, and his style is wild and delicate. The offensive skills are very comprehensive and the back-to-the-basket skills are also very high. He is fast enough, and the outside three-point firepower is strong enough. He is also a good low offensive player. No one can stop the straight-arm jumper. The defensive performance is surprising, especially the one-on-one top defense is quite good.

But there is a fatal flaw that is irritability and even bad temper. He often overreacted to the referee's penalties due to his excessive behavior and was sent off the court by the referee. To this end, you must stock up some substitutes at the power forward position.

The reason why Bruce first thought of Rashid Wallace was because of the appearance of the "Pistons Five Tigers", these five people in the previous life could be described as killing all quarters, not the most terrifying, only more terrifying.

The configuration of the double Wallace is absolutely shocking. Now that the Sonics has a big stake, if Rasheed Wallace is brought in again, a double Wallace combination can be formed in advance, which not only makes Bruce began to look forward to it.

Especially after Paul Allen is going to invite Larry Brown to be the head coach. This "Pistons Five Tigers" is his masterpiece that year. It can be said that Bruce completely copied the Pistons lineup to create a "civilian bankrupt version" of super The Sonics.
