After hearing Hansen's thoughts, Wallace's heart took a long time to calm down.
He had considered every possibility, but never anticipated that Hansen would make such a choice.
Eventually, he heaved a sigh, "I respect your decision."
Not only had Hansen brought the Grizzlies their first championship in team history, he had now brought the second and might even bring a third.
From any point of view, Hansen no longer owed the Grizzlies anything.
The initial trade he made was enough to make history and could even compete for the best trade in history.
And he could understand Hansen's decision, as a general manager, how could he not know the investment the management made into the team?
Although numerous East University companies were sending money to Memphis, the management was shortsighted, still only focusing on immediate profitability.
