On November 1, after returning to New York from Charlotte, Lin Yi and Javier Stanford met at the "Silvestri" Italian restaurant in New York.

The Knicks will have a back-to-back match against the Philadelphia 76ers tonight, so Lin Yi set the meeting time at noon, and he will go to the training hall for some restorative training in the afternoon.

The main dishes of Silvestri Restaurant today are "Lisotho" and "Salamé". "Lisotho" is actually Italian rice, fried with diced onion, butter and rice, and the wine is added while stir-frying to make it dry and taste delicious, making it fragrant and soft.

"Salamé" is an Italian sausage, which looks like a thick, long and round rolling pin. There is a layer of powdery white mold outside. After cutting it, it is bright red and fragrant.

These two dishes were recommended by D'Antoni. As a foodie, Lin Yi really wants to try them.

"Lin, are you sure you want to trade like this? Chris Duhon is our starting guard, and Belinelli is just the Raptors' substitute point guard."

After all, Javier Stanford has worked as a scout and a reporter. He knows basketball more well than general manager Donny Wash, but even so, he still feels that Lin Yi’s advice to him is a bit unscientific.

For example, Lin Yi suggested that the Raptors exchange their substitute shooting guard Belinelli, and the only suitable chips for New York are starting defender Chris Duhon.

Lin Yi's mouth raised slightly. After all, Javier Stanford was not a time traveler, so he would definitely have such objections.

"First of all, is there a difference between our starting guards Chris Duhon or Tony Douglas?" Lin Yi asked at Javier Stanford.

Javier Stanford shook his head, it seemed that there was no difference. After two regular season games, Chris Duhon was just a so-called player.

"Secondly, I'm afraid the Raptors will not change this deal. Belinelli is a very good pitcher who can compete in the second and third positions."

"In the end, if we want to go further in the new season, we need outside shooters instead of wooden stakes that can only dribble through half the court." Lin Yi analyzed to Javier Stanford that Belinelli is definitely a potential stock.

Lin Yi is very clear that Belinelli is not popular with the Raptors at the moment because the Raptors want to train the newcomer Demar de Rozan they selected this year.

This makes Belinelli's position in the Raptors very embarrassed. He looks like he moves at average, only shoots from the outside, and can only contribute 0.9 three-pointers per game.

But Lin Yi knew that this was entirely because the Raptors did not use Belinelli. Lin Yi remembered that Chris Duhon was getting worse day by day after leaving D'Antoni's system, and disappeared from the NBA not long after.

To put it bluntly, future point guards need active offensive ability. A defender like Chris Duhong doesn't need it at all. He is not accurate in three-pointers, can't open space, and has average pick-and-roll breakthrough ability. What else can he contribute to the team besides a steady pass?

But Belinelli is different. Lin Yi remembers that after joining the Philadelphia 76ers in the 17/18 season, Belinelli was in a state of water. After Embiid was injured, Simmons led a group of shooters and 3D to play, but the result was unexpectedly good.

People call the Philadelphia 76ers Royal Sailors, which means that the Philadelphia 76ers' three-pointers always flirt like salutes.

D'Antoni is a head coach who is good at using pitchers. If you give him a few more pitchers, he can give you a piece of the sky. Lin Yi doesn't even need to give D'Antoni any suggestions. D'Antoni can arrange these people by himself.

In the 13/14 season, Belinelli once played a very highlight moment with the Spurs. He made accurate three-pointers and could also shoot mid-range shots. His style of play was very similar to Klay Thompson, but his movement speed was slow, and defense was just a loophole.

But Belinelli's physical fitness is much better than Capono and Novak. Wilson Chandler is not able to make a three-pointer, and D'Antoni is ready to make him play in the fourth position to play in the fast attack lineup.

Since he knew D'Antoni's idea, Lin Yi must cooperate with D'Antoni's team building ideas.

And if Lin Yi hadn't known that the Raptors lacked a defender during this period, I'm afraid the Raptors might not have had to switch with you. Lin Yi was completely using his advantages to help the Knicks, which was just a cheat!

Javier Stanford nodded, "Donny should agree to this deal, and this deal is not difficult to operate. But Lin, your second suggestion, will the Philadelphia 76ers really give out Louis Williams? Our best chip is probably Larry Hughes."

Lin Yi took a bite of "Lisotho" and looked at Javier Stanford and said, "There is no hurry to do this deal. You can talk to the Philadelphia 76ers slowly. I believe your sincerity will definitely impress them!"

Javier Stanford shook his head with a wry smile. Lin Yi was giving him a difficult problem with general manager Donny Wash. How do you think Louis Williams are both potential newcomers, but Larry Hughes is just an expiring contract. Philadelphia 76ers will only make this deal with the Knicks if they get their brains drawn.

Lin Yi can't reveal too much to Javier Stanford. This deal is different from that of Belinelli. Only Lin Yi knows about this deal. The 76ers in Philadelphia are just good at sucking their brains!

The reason is simple, the Philadelphia 76ers want to play badly, and Louis Williams can't meet their requirements.

After getting used to having superstars like Iverson, the Philadelphia 76ers have always been eager to get another superstar to drive the market. However, because Philadelphia's own lack of attractiveness, the only way for them to get superstars is to keep playing badly. The 76ers are fine now, but in the future they will continue to play badly and reach new heights.

Not to mention Louis Williams, even singles expert Holiday and future FMVP Iguodala can send them away with their eyes closed.

It is precisely because of this relationship that Lin Yi believes that as long as the Knicks are willing to pay a draft pick and Larry Hughes' expiration contract, the 76ers will definitely make this deal with the Knicks.

Because Lin Yi remembers that after Allen Iverson was cut off by the Grizzlies, he would return to Philadelphia to play for a while. Later, because Iverson played too seriously, the 76ers uniform team saw that it would not be possible to make such a move, so he decisively persuaded Iverson to withdraw.

As for the outside world's words of taking care of his daughter, Lin Yi didn't believe that Iverson was criticized by Kobe by Kobe. He would choose to give up his basketball career in order to take care of his daughter when he wanted to prove himself.

The Philadelphia 76ers' hearts on playing badly are very firm, even comparable to LeBron James' determination to win the championship.

The Philadelphia 76ers themselves understand that no matter how good Louis Williams plays, it is difficult to become an All-Star. The Holiday he chose this year has good potential, and they are more willing to give Holiday a period of growth.

Lin Yi remembered that the next Philadelphia 76ers were constantly looking for the "New Iverson" and kept scraping the lottery. It was not until they scored Embiid that Simmons began to seriously consider the team building.

Javier Stanford and Donny Wash certainly could not know that the 76ers are so determined to play badly, so most people will definitely think that Louis Williams, who just made a little sign, is a non-selling product for the Philadelphia 76ers. Only Lin Yi knows that for the 76ers, what they most desire is draft picks and expiration contracts.

Lin Yi hopes that the reason why the management trade comes to Louis Williams is very simple. This guy plays the main player, and defense is a loophole, but he is fast on the bench and can pick and roll with Lin Yi. He is half a Curry when he gets three-pointer. What the Knicks lacks most now is such a player who can make up for the lack of firepower.

As for Lin Yi's third person to ask the management to trade, Javier Stanford is familiar with Danny Green, and the future person is nicknamed Zhang Tielin.

Javier Stanford thinks that perhaps Green and Lin Yi have a good relationship, Lin Yi will consider taking care of this former North Carolina fourth young master, because now Danny Green can't even play the ball in the Cavaliers, as long as there are suitable chips, the Cavaliers will definitely trade.

Only Lin Yi himself knows that Danny Green is the teammate he most hopes for.

This purely unspherical 3D is what New York is urgently needed now.

In addition, in recent times, Javier Stanford and Donny Wash have been actively dealing with Eddie Curry's bad contract, and Lin Yi has also provided them with a deal object.

A Timberwolves nicknamed Husky.

Lin Yi knew very well that in his memory, it was the Timberwolves who ate this bad contract.

Because the Timberwolves also decided to start playing badly for a long time.

Lin Yi gave his own suggestions to the management. He could not spoil too much, but he believed that these transactions could be completed. It was just a matter of time before he could do it, because he knew too much about the ideas of all teams in the future. This is a fucking trick!
