1475. The new team leader (6th update 1/4)
Today Lily Collins and Sun Ce came out together not just to send Zuge to the school for the exam.
After sending Zuege to the school exam at 8:30, the two left Lausanne High School and headed to a villa area in the north of downtown Memphis.
Today, Sun Ce was preparing to invite his teammates to have a dinner together. Paul George did not mention this matter, and Sun Ce forgot.
There is no Nash now, no Bathir anymore, no one will organize the team training before the start of the season, Paul George organized tomorrow's training, and today Sun Ce is preparing to invite his teammates to dinner.
But before that, Sun Ce visited his new teammate Richard Jefferson.
The team traded Jimmy Butler. Judging from the continuous praise from Jazz head coach Thibodeau for Jimmy Butler over the past period of time, the media and fans felt that the Grizzlies had lost the deal.
Sun Ce also feels that at least in the next one or two years, before Gobert is very rough in college, trial training, or summer league like this, there will definitely be media and fans saying that they have lost money.
The management also knew that it was a loss, but after Bill Duffy helped Jimmy Butler screen the team, he felt that he had lost Millsap, the forward swinger, Marvin Williams, the forward swinger, was not adapted to the situation last season, and the forward swinger
Only Jeremy Evans, the Jazz team who eats cake-type jumping, is very suitable for Jimmy Butler.
At the end of the season, the team's management had already hinted that it would keep Jimmy Butler. This time the management was in a disadvantage, so they should meet Jimmy Butler's requirements as much as possible.
But in addition to this, there is another reason, that is, a veteran comes back from the transaction!
This veteran needs to bear a certain playing time, have strength, and have the ability to lead.
Then the Jazz team that just traded to Richard Jefferson is really a good deal.
Sun Ce also thinks the deal is good, especially now that the team suddenly exposed the flaws of losing the locker room leader, not just because Gobert thinks the deal is done well, but because Richard Jeff
Sen came in time.
...
Richard Jefferson has been waiting for a long time. Yesterday, he received a request from Sun Ce to visit. He got up early this morning and asked his wife Teresa to help him clean up the house, waiting for Sun Ce to come.
When he came to the Grizzlies, Richard Jefferson was ecstatic. He felt that he could play for two or three years. Even if he had a basic salary, he would be willing to play for the Grizzlies without playing time.
Because this is a championship team! Even if a team like the Lakers appears, even if the Kozan combination can be guaranteed for at least three years, the Grizzlies will be the top favorite to win the championship in the next three years.
But as a veteran who has been fighting for twelve years, he has been traded, pardoned, and sold out. Richard Jefferson has seen all the cruelty of the NBA and knows that sometimes the veteran will be disliked and has seen it right
The young star who is extremely disrespectful to the veteran.
But when he came to the Grizzlies, this super star who had already won two MVPs at the age of 23 and two MVPs in the finals actually came to visit. Richard Jefferson felt this and other young teams.
Something different to the team.
In fact, I have felt that the team organized training was Paul George, a quasi-fourth-grade talented player who was almost traded... It would be fine if Randolph didn't take responsibility, Sun Ce and Gasol Jr. didn't have two middle-aged players.
movement.
Richard Jefferson can't count on Tony Allen and Prince to lead the team, right?
The former is quite mixed, with the ability to lead the court, but not outside the court, Prince... has nothing to do with leadership.
Yi Jianlian and Prince are not much different. They look very tough, but they are so quiet in private.
But Richard Jefferson is a newcomer, and this is another team full of young players. It is indeed not appropriate to lead his teammates.
But at this time, Sun Ce took the initiative to contact him. Richard Jefferson had been playing for so many years, so he naturally knew that it might be a good thing.
However, the more this happens, the less careless Richard Jefferson dares to be careless. If he does not show the leadership ability he should have and the other party is not satisfied, perhaps the team will change to another veteran.
He knew very well that players like Sun Ce were definitely not easy to deal with. Let’s see who Sun Ce wanted before - Bathir and Nash!
These two are veteran leaders whom they want as long as they are still playing basketball.
For teams like the Grizzlies, if they are willing, some veterans are willing to buy out, but the Grizzlies have the requirements for strength.
At 9:15 in the morning, Sun Ce and Lily Collins came to the villa area where Richard Jefferson rented, found the door sign of Richard Jefferson's house, parked the car according to the property's instructions, and came to Li
The doorbell rang outside the yard of Chad Jefferson.
Theresa, who was watering flowers in the yard, went out to pick up people, Richard Jefferson in the house adjusted his emotions, and could not be too excited, but not too arrogant, and sorted out his clothes, just ordinary home clothes, walked out of the door,
They happened to meet Sun Ce, Lily Collins and Theresa who came to the door by passing the yard.
"Lord, you're not on time. It's 10 minutes ahead of time." Richard Jefferson might have met and hugged Sun Ce.
The appointment was 9:30, but Zueye School was far away from this villa area, so it was difficult to estimate the time, so the appointment was late and it took about 40 minutes to arrive.
"I want to have a good chat with you too much. The sooner I come, the better. I wanted to come to you after the training last night, but I was afraid that I would delay your sleep."
"Then you really should come, Theresa... This is my wife, Theresa, she made delicious curry last night, it's a pity that you didn't come, but you can have dinner at my house today at noon,
Sha bought the ingredients in the morning.”
"We have met just now. This is my girlfriend Lily. Then there is noon today...."
I have seen it before, played a game, and after a while, I entered the house.
Sun Ce has never had contact with Richard Jefferson before, and has never spoken even when playing games.
This is normal in NBA. Playing basketball is the same as working. Even if people from branches meet several times a year, they may not communicate. At most, the two of them will know each other.
During this first real exchange, Sun Ce had a good impression of Richard Jefferson's calm temperament and kind personality.
When I entered the house, I saw simple but neat decorations, and I felt more favorable. I was not the kind of person who became extravagant after making hundreds of millions of dollars.
With such a personality, personality and personal life, Sun Ce thinks that Richard Jefferson can have a very positive impact on the young players of the team like Battier!
