Live broadcast, February 17 -danny Anji, the former general manager of Celtics and now the general manager of Sir Utah, talked about the past of his big deal with team basketable nets 10 years ago when interviewed by media player Rob Perez.
“You just need some luck. When we traded Pierce and Garnett to basketable nets for the picks, we thought basketable nets would play well.
“They had Delong, Dalo, Joe Johnson, and then joined Garnett and Pierce. They also had oil in the tank at that time. We thought their picks would only be more than 20 in the first round, instead of exploring flowers, we were lucky to make the right choice.” Anji said.
When there were rumors on the Internet that Anji had considered using Tatum + Jay Brown in exchange for Anthony Davis who wanted to leave the Pelicans at that time, Anji denied: “There has never been such a deal discussion, but we have considered packaging these two picks to get Butler before.
“At that time, the criticism against me was reasonable. I was criticized for not letting go with the right to choose and missed Butler. We were lucky that these two picks finally became Tatum and Jay Brown, but you never know what the future will be like. We really wanted to get Butler at that time.”
