Add One, I Don’t Know How To Fight

Leon, Billups and Hamilton joined the Pistons one after another, which gave the other 28 teams in the league a bad feeling.

Because all this is so similar to what happened in the summer of 1985.

In the summer of 1985, in order to defeat Bird, the Pistons first selected Joe Dumars with the 18th pick in the first round, and then introduced another fighting talent, "The Rock" Rick Mahorn.

But even so, the Pistons are not satisfied. What they need is to reach their stomachs in one step, and what they need is to blow up the entire league.

So the Pistons later acquired two-time scoring champion Adrian Dantley through a trade.

At this point, the Bad Boy Legion was born, which terrified the entire league.

This Pistons joined the fight for hegemony and even made No. 23 miserable.

They won the championship twice in the 1988-89 and 1989-90 seasons. Although they did not win another championship in the 1990s, they were still a powerful force in the Eastern Conference.

Today, the operation of the piston looks very similar to that of 1985.

Although they had good results, they made drastic changes to the lineup and upgraded every position.

If it were just Billups + Hamilton joining the Pistons, it would be nothing.

But the Pistons did not hesitate to use the Grizzlies' first-round pick to trade Li Ang, which illustrates a problem: "They don't want to wait any longer, they want to win the championship!"

The NBA is a game of exchanging the future for the present, or the present for the future.

It is rare for Green Kai to get good results while getting a high draft pick in the future.

Since the Pistons chose to trade draft picks for Li Ang, it proves that they don't want to waste time anymore.

They regard Li Ang as the last and biggest piece of the puzzle.

A brand new bad boy army seems to have been formed!

So, will history really repeat itself?

Will the entire league really be shrouded in the shadow of the bad boys of the Pistons again?

Everyone, including Stern, couldn't help but swallow.

For a time, most media on the market began to badmouth the Pistons.

"A parallel import prospect, a skinny defender, an offensive idiot, and a cancer in the locker room. Does anyone really think they can make it happen? No, right?"

“The Pistons finished second in the Eastern Conference last season, but they ridiculously sent away the team’s top two scorers, Stackhouse and Clifford Robinson.

To be honest, I can't understand Joe Dumars' behavior. He dismantled a team that was steadily on the rise.

I don't think this civilian team can do better than last season. "

"The Pistons will become a strong team in the Eastern Conference next season, there is no doubt about it. But if their goal is to compete for the championship, the OK combination that has won two consecutive championships will destroy them, really."

No one is optimistic about the Pistons, or in other words, people are unwilling to believe that the Pistons can rise.

The days when the Bad Boys dominated the league made them fearful.

They don't want to be trapped in that kind of fear again.

Therefore, one can only eliminate the fear in the heart and achieve the purpose of self-comfort by constantly belittling the piston.

As the French always say, their Macedonian defenses are impregnable.

But there is one thing to say. Compared with teams such as the Lakers and Spurs, the Pistons' lineup is indeed a bit too civilian.

There is only one All-Star in the team, Li Ang, but Li Ang is not a superstar like Shaq or Duncan.

Among the superstars, Li Ang is considered a relatively commoner.

Therefore, some people really don't think the Pistons can make it happen.

Even Kobe thought so: "Lee, how is life in Detroit?"

"It's okay. It's not that bad. I just don't dare to go out at night."

"Why don't you come to the west? There are sunshine, beaches and beauties here. Life is so comfortable!"

Li Ang laughed, going to the west? You just want to hit me twice more in a season, and you think I don’t know your little thoughts?

After two consecutive championships, Kobe has become the top five shooting guards.

In the past, people used to compare Carter and Jordan.

But now, people are starting to compare Kobe and Jordan more and more.

Not to mention Kobe Bryant's performance in the past two years, after all, he won his first championship by defeating Li Ang.

In the past two years, none of you know how many times Li Ang has been woken up by unexpected text messages in his sleep.

"Unfortunately, I was still thinking that it would be great if you could go to the Nets. Hey, after all, 4-0 in the finals is really meaningless. If you go to the Nets, you can still have some fun next season.

As a result, you went to the Pistons, who couldn't even beat the Nets, hey! "

On the phone, the volute began to talk about Versailles again.

In the just past 2001-02 season, the Lakers swept the Nets 4-0 in the Finals, winning effortlessly.

One year 4 to 1, one year 4 to 0.

Let's put it this way, there are almost no teams in the Eastern Conference that can compete with the Lakers.

The Pistons met the Nets early in the Eastern Conference finals last season due to ranking changes, and were beaten 4-0 by the Nets.

This time and again, the strength gap between the Pistons and the Lakers can be seen.

Li Ang gritted his teeth, Kobe was really haunted by this beep.

Whenever he finds an opportunity, he will turn on the taunting mode.

"Okay, okay, just hold it in. We didn't play well last season. Let's make an appointment next season!"

"Hahahaha, it sounds like you can beat me next season. Come on, bring your group of fellow sufferers to beat me, hahahaha!"

After hanging up the phone, Li Ang touched his chin.

Come to beat you? The kind without responsibility?

This is what you said!

We may be a bit ordinary people in the basketball world, but in the fighting world we are all-stars.

These days, the world is dissing the Pistons anyway.

It's like when some people see you getting a new car, they get sour.

Oh, you said that the iron sheet of your car is so thin, wouldn’t it be useless if you scratch it?

The interior is not as good as my third uncle’s big tricycle.

There's still enough space for two people to lie down.

Why are you thinking about buying this car? If you really have that kind of money, you can just buy something else. Why are you buying this? It’s for nothing.

It's really just a case of being taken advantage of.

Joe Dumas was regarded as the wronged one, but in the face of overwhelming reports, Dumas was very calm in his heart.

He knows what he is doing. A team like the Pistons cannot afford superstars.

What he wants to do is to do the most things with the least money.

Of course, Du Fatty can't guarantee that the Pistons will take off next season.

Whether he is the wronged son or not depends on the performance of the elder brothers.

Li Ang rested in Detroit for more than half a month. There was not much place to play in Detroit, so Li Ang could only hang out with Big Ben every day.

Ben took advantage of this time to familiarize Li Ang with the city of Detroit. After that, like Li Ang, he will participate in the World Championships. Therefore, the two of them seize the time to stay together every day.

During this period, James from Cleveland called Li Ang every day, hoping to train with Li Ang.

Last summer, he and Li Ang spent a good time, which made Xiao Zhan forget to leave.

During the offseason last year, Li Ang invited Xiao Zhan to participate in his training camp as previously agreed.

After a summer of training, Xiao Zhan became invincible when he returned.

Throughout his senior season, he seemed to be completely transformed, averaging nearly 30 points per game.

Therefore, he also wants to train with Li Ang this year.

But there is no way, Li Ang has to be busy participating in the national team competition this year, so he has no time.

Do you think Li Ang can bear it? He was also very heartbroken.

Without being able to train with Xiao Zhan, Li Ang couldn't even take advantage of him.

After training with Xiao Zhan for a summer last season, Li Ang drew a silver "Bullet Pass" badge from him.

As the name suggests, the effect is to increase the power and accuracy of the pass, allowing the basketball to fly to the hands of teammates accurately and quickly like a bullet, achieving the effect of letting bullets fly.

This is also one of the characteristics of James' passing. When he passes the ball, it usually flies very fast.

However, since Li Ang was just a finishing point most of the time last season, there were not many opportunities to pass the ball. Therefore, the average assists per game data has not improved much.

But in fact, Li Ang can occasionally send a good pass now.

Of course, there is a downside to bullet passing. Increasing the force when passing the ball will naturally increase the flight speed of the ball.

But if the ball accidentally hits a teammate's face, it's not a bullet pass, it's a bullet headshot.

Dameng, who was shot in the head no less than ten times by Li Ang's bullets last season, expressed his regrets.

Now, you know why Dameng retired.

If you hit me any more, your head will be gone!

It's a pity that Li Ang can no longer take advantage of Xiao Zhan this year.

However, the World Championships and Asian Games will allow Li Ang to accumulate certain competition experience before the start of the season and lay a solid foundation for the next upgrade.

This can be considered a gain and a loss.

In mid-July, Li Ang finally joined the national team in Indianapolis.

Because he was suspended for 6 games by FIBA ​​during the previous Olympic Games, Li Ang did not participate in last year's Asian Championships at all.

This time, it is equivalent to Li Ang returning to the national team for the first time after two years!

When we came to training camp again, this team had changed a lot.

The first is the coach. After Mr. Jiang retired, Wang Fei led the team in the last Asian Championships.

But this year, the coach was replaced by Del. Harris, the "Silver Fox" who once won the best coach in the NBA.

Harris became the first foreign head coach in Chinese basketball history two years ahead of schedule.

The purpose of the Basketball Association is also very clear, which is to use a coach like Harris who often coaches high-level competitions to lead the Chinese team to the 2002 World Championships and the 2004 Olympics!

A common problem among domestic coaches is that they have poor on-the-spot command ability in international competitions.

Even the successful old man Jiang Xingquan also has this problem. I think back in Sydney, because old man Jiang Xingquan didn't react, the French team almost turned the game over with a wave of three-pointers.

If it weren't for Li Ang's strong carry, the Chinese team wouldn't even have been able to qualify for the group stage, let alone the silver medal.

But because Harris has coached high-level games all year round, his on-the-spot command ability is much better than that of domestic coaches.

After seeing Li Ang, Harris nodded friendly.

Now that the thigh is here, Harris feels more confident!

Li Ang looked around the stadium again, and there was no doubt that he was in the formation, because now he does not have to face the mess of 2002.

The Mavericks signed a three-year contract with Rough as early as last summer, so Rough doesn't need to be distracted by summer league matters, and there won't be any trouble like that.

In addition to the general appearance, Li Ang also saw a very young child's face.

Take a closer look. Isn’t this Yu Tianyi the one who won the coach’s trust with a slight smile?

After Harris became the head coach of the national team, he became very interested in the little guy A Lian, whose physical fitness was comparable to that of a black guy.

This kind of forward who can fly and escape is very rare in Asian basketball.

It stands to reason that in the original history, Ah Lian should be only 15 years old now. He should not appear in the national team, but should play monsters in the youth team and one day become the Shilipo Sword God.

But the situation is different now. The Chinese team is now a strong team in the world. The Chinese team’s reputation does not need to rely on the youth team’s games to build its reputation, everything is in the service of international competitions.

In addition, Harris wanted Yi Jianlian very much. Therefore, the Arab League in this history was 18 years old in 2002. He left the novice village early and put on the national team jersey!

Li Ang has seen a lot of things that can make the results of the game different in the two histories. Li Ang has also seen many players whose personalities have changed.

For example, Xiao Yao became an axe-wielding warrior, and Carter also became a boxing master.

Li Ang didn't know why they changed, it had nothing to do with Li Ang anyway.

But since people of different ages play different games, I guess only Arab League can do it.

This really has nothing to do with Li Ang!

Speaking of which, Li Ang in his previous life was filled with emotion when he saw Yi Jianlian introduced in a magazine for the first time. I lament that this person who is only six years older than me can play so well. It is really amazing.

As a result, after a few years of drafting, Li Ang discovered that he was only three years older than himself.

The person who was six years older than you three years ago is only three years older than you three years later. This seems to be no problem!

It’s been three years, but isn’t it just three years older?

Ah Lian was a little nervous when he saw Li Ang staring at him.

At this time, another young man suddenly rushed out to help Ah Lian out of the siege.

The young man hugged Li Ang with a happy face. Because Li Ang is not just a teammate in his heart, he is simply an idol!

"Brother Li, my idol, you are finally here!"

Li Ang lowered his head and looked, good guy, isn't this Xiao Zhu who is said to be very good at writing papers?

"Hey, Xiao Zhu, you are here too. You played in Lebanon at the Asian Championships last year and you made outstanding achievements."

When Li Ang said this, Xiao Zhu scratched his head in embarrassment: "What the hell, compared to Brother Li, you are far behind~"

Harris couldn't understand what the two were muttering. He thought they were exchanging their basketball experiences.

Fuck you, are you talking about playing basketball with outstanding military achievements? It’s about the big brawl between the Chinese team and the Lebanese team in last year’s Asian Championships!

NBA fights are child's play compared to that scene.

Because Chinese athletes do not engage in personal heroism, they understand that unity is strength.

Therefore, every time there is a fight, the group is basically started directly, and the scene is very grand.

In last year's battle with Lebanon, in addition to Xiao Li Feidao and bench Liu Zhanshen continuing to show their talents, young Xiao Zhu also relied on the rapid output of Zhu Baquan to become famous.

The Lebanese team directly suspected that if you want to join the basketball team in China, the first test is a special fight.

In the absence of Li Ang, the Lebanese team was still beaten.

Prominent military exploits, that's what I'm talking about.

Harris didn't even know what a terrifying team he was about to lead.

This Chinese team is simply a gathering of experts.

At the same time, the dream team also started training.

Because Ugly people have never paid much attention to the World Championships, and the top stars are busy competing against OK combinations and have no interest in wasting energy on the World Championships.

Therefore, this year's Dream Team lineup is not so luxurious.

But it still includes stars such as Reggie Miller, O'Neal, Pierce, Finley and Ben.

Ugly people all hope that the Dream Team can play at home, in the birthplace of basketball, with national prestige!

Li Ang's current reputation among Ugly fans is not very good, and he has the attribute of attracting hatred.

Therefore, the ugly Chinese people even shouted the slogan "If you don't beat the Chinese team by 20 points, you are not a human being."

If it were in the past, the dream team might still have the capital to be arrogant.

But now

Li Ang can't wait and wants to test his current offensive firepower in the international arena first.

Carlisle and Fatty Du were also very concerned about Li Ang's performance.

After all, the level of offense that Li Ang can perform will directly determine whether the Bad Boys Legion can be resurrected.

For a time, Li Ang became the most high-profile star player in the World Championships.

If Li Ang remembers correctly, the first defeat in the history of the Dream Team since its formation was at this World Championships.

It's time to do what bad boys do on their territory.

Thanks to Mr. Xianjiangcai for the 20,000 yuan reward, and to Mr. Hongfeng under the tree, Xiao Dou, Reader 1397092166159859712, Hanhan of Ai Hanhan, Da Yi and other big guys for their rewards. Thank you!
