Chapter 191 What are you talking about? Add me!

Time has advanced to October, and various teams have successively gathered players to prepare for the new season.

Those pending signings are also coming to an end.

The wrangling between Ray Allen and the SuperSonics has finally ended. With the five-year, $75 million contract extension, neither party feels very comfortable.

Stoudemire, who had been having an ambiguous relationship with the Suns management before, suddenly "changed his mind" before the start of the training camp and completed a five-year, 75 million early contract extension.

Sprewell, who "cannot support his family without a multi-million contract", still failed to get a multi-million-year salary contract that represented respect, but he waited for an invitation from Los Angeles. Minnesota's 7 million annual salary was not enough, but he thought about it if he switched to Los Angeles.

Nodding.

Historically, the Lakers actually had the opportunity to sign "Madman" but they did not have enough salary space and were unwilling to pay appropriate chips.

But after O'Brien won the championship after leaving the team, not only Kobe Bryant, but also the Lakers management were under a lot of pressure, especially after seeing the Heat's luxurious lineup this year. Together, the whole group gritted their teeth and picked up a first-round pick for next year, and turned "

Madman" traded over.

On the Pacers side, Bird followed through on his word after talking to Artest and traded him out, but instead of sending him to Sacramento as he originally did, he was sent to the Knicks.

The Kings have no plans to trade Peja in the offseason. They also want to continue to see the strength of Peja in the new season. Originally, the Kings traded Peja after seeing him leading the team with a 33% winning rate in 30 games.

Put on the shelves.

One for three, the Pacers got Ke Liu, Ariza and a second-round pick for next year.

Crawford is now the second-best player in the Knicks, and he happens to have the three-pointers that the Pacers are in urgent need of after Miller retires. Last season, his three-point shots were second only to Mo Wen and Peja, and his defensive ability was put first.

On the other hand, Bird now wants to make up for the scoring problems that were exposed in last season's playoffs.

From the current point of view, even if Mo Wen leaves, the Heat in front of them cannot be defeated defensively. Without conditions, Bird can only embrace the times.

Ariza hasn't been released yet, it's just that Bird couldn't find anything else in the trash heap of the Knicks and just wanted it.

As for this deal, the New York media was rarely optimistic about it.

Artest is also a child from Queens. Although his playing style is not as good as that of Keliu, the strength he has shown before is still higher than that of Keliu.

And as a former best defensive player, you will know that he will definitely get along with Larry Brown, the best defensive coach who is about to come to New York.

Raheem, who had always favored the Nets before, came here after the trade.

Raheem is a restricted free agent. The Trail Blazers are unwilling to renew his contract, but they are also unwilling to let him go for nothing. They want to steal two second-round picks from the Nets and a 2009 first-round pick swap right.

They let him go, but Rahim's knee failed to pass the physical examination. I felt that the Nets had been deceived and asked for two second-round picks back...

But most professionals are not particularly optimistic about this deal, because Rahim is not a frame-protecting insider in the traditional sense. His style of play is also very ball-holding, but the Nets' three teams have already done most of the ball-holding work.

Did it...

As the popularity of the player market has declined, the coaching market has also returned to calm after a brief period of excitement.

"Zen Master" Phil Jackson still parked his Harley in the Lakers parking lot.

During the year of layoff, he received nearly ten invitations and contracts, but only one Laker could barely catch his eye.

His most ideal target to join is the Heat. With the Heat's current lineup and the triangle offense, he can come up with 20 combinations. But the Heat have no intention of wanting him, and neither he nor Riley can deal with it.

Many other teams don't even have a superstar who can solve the problem, and his triangle offense can't be played at all.

A year of cooling off was enough for him and Kobe to talk face to face again.

The return of "Zen Master" was still expected, but Larry Brown on the other side made the melon-eaters watch a wonderful show.

Larry Brown, who had almost confirmed his departure, did not simply hand in his resignation after the season.

Instead, he was in frequent contact with Dumas.

He wanted to leave, but he also wanted to receive severance compensation - the guaranteed amount in the original contract.

For fans outside the circle, Larry Brown has never publicly announced that he will join another team and has insisted on staying with the team. Now that he may not be able to continue coaching due to health problems, it is appropriate to pay for his severance compensation.

But everyone in the industry has a certain understanding of his situation. It is really outrageous for a famous coach to behave in such a shameless manner.

After Dumas had a symbolic talk with him, he stopped taking the initiative to say anything. He showed that if he wanted to stay, he would stay, and if he didn't want to stay, he would hand in his resignation.

He didn't want to have any more friendship with Larry Brown because his team gave away two futures, but he went to contact other teams before the playoffs started because the friendship generated by last year's championship had long been forgotten by Larry.

Brown wasted.

Moreover, the industry now has doubts about the value of Larry Brown's 2004 championship.

Two of the top point guards in the league, one is starting and the other is coming off the bench.

If he were replaced by Da Fan, it wouldn't be that difficult to win the championship.

Fan is now considered a famous coach. At this time in history, the Heat lost the tiebreaker of the 2005 Eastern Conference Finals. His coaching ability was also seriously questioned and he was facing the crisis of dismissal.

But because the Heat swept the championship, although many people still look down on him, some people still believe that he has something.

At the very least, Mo Wen mentioned many times in his speech before that Da Fan worked hard and paid a lot for the championship. This polite statement was recognized by many people.

Many working people always like to attribute their failures to lack of hard work, thinking that successful people must be very hardworking and very capable, and even make up various stories for them that make them cry.

But in fact, success and failure in a narrow sense do not have that high requirements for ability.

It is not ironic that a top student's life-long struggle can be compared to the word "dismantle", but a very common reality.

Of course, the existence of Dafan is still meaningful.

In addition to the regular work of a coolie analyst, he also has an important job content-getting angry for Mowen.

Players are human beings, and there are bound to be times when they make mistakes or fail to do what they do.

Mo Wen's qualifications are relatively low, and he doesn't think he can completely ignore the seniority issue in the NBA. Many times, he will leave some unpleasant or offending things to Da Fan.

Even though Da Fan usually doesn't feel much presence, it is even said that the offensive tactics and rhythm control are left to Mo Wen.

But if he doesn't do something, he won't have the chance to make mistakes!

Coupled with the team's successive victories, Da Fan felt an inexplicable sense of majesty.

In short, off the court, Mo Wen and Da Fan's jobs were exactly reversed. Mo Wen became the eyes responsible for finding problems, while Da Fan became the hand responsible for execution.

However, during this period of team training, Da Fan basically never lost his temper.

Needless to say, after enjoying a crazy vacation, the Heat players have more problems than usual.

Although Riley held a training camp, he himself was not always present to supervise, which also gave these old basketball hooligans an opportunity to be lazy.

Knowing how to fish is a sign of true maturity in the workplace.

Newcomers are still holding a voice recorder for fear of missing a word from their leader, while veterans can play games or look at funds without changing their expressions during face-to-face conversations with their leaders. This is the difference.

However, no matter how good they are, they can't escape the moment of inspection.

When Mo Wen was away, during the team's training matches, everyone seemed to have a tacit understanding of each other, but as soon as Mo Wen came back, the tacit understanding no longer existed.

"I heard that the media described us as the Galacticos of the basketball world? Ha."

Riley put down the report on the table, said nothing, just lit the cigar and put it aside.

Galaxy Battleship is really in line with the Heat's current situation.

Taking into account their past and present glory, the players on the Heat can barely be considered to have six superstars, which is right in line with the "six-core" Galaxy Battleship that "Lafayette" created.

But the mighty Galacticos in the football world also began to disintegrate in tragedy with the departure of the "right winger".

It was at this time that Galactic Battleship also took on a bit of irony from the praise.

"What are your plans for the new season?"

"Yes, they're all here." Da Fan pulled out a stack of documents from his briefcase.

"Several of our (coaching staff) have designed several tactics for the new season, but judging from the current state of Shaq and Dwyane, the effect of their execution will definitely not be very good."

"As for Anthony (Walker) and Michael (Finley), Mo and I have the same opinion. One of them needs to choose to lead the bench. Letting them start together will not help our offense much. On the contrary, it will

It affects our defensive efficiency."

"There has to be someone on the court to do the dirty work, otherwise there will be problems with the rebounding and the overall coordination."

Riley flipped through the extensive tactical information and nodded in approval. Being able to produce these things showed that his salary was not in vain.

However, as the paper became thinner and thinner, Riley's brows wrinkled again.

Finally at the end, a few words made Riley's brows relax slightly, but the specious things were too simple and not enough to satisfy Riley.

"I told you, Stan, as a head coach, you can't just focus on the current season. Don't you think there is a name that appears too frequently in this tactical manual?"

Riley pressed his palms on the table and tapped his nails on the table. His tone was half helpless and half angry, almost speaking explicitly.

As a teacher, he should be happy to see the progress of his students, but the current manual contains too much "mo", and 60% of the tactics are related to "mo".

Yes, Mo Wen has proven that giving the ball to him is the right choice.

However, the Heat only own Mo Wen for one year!

Riley's ambition is not only satisfied with two championships. He has no shortage of championships but has not yet established a dynasty. He wants to challenge the feeling of winning three championships in one go.

His efforts to form a superstar team are not just for the immediate championship, but also have the deep meaning of weakening Mo Wen's ball rights, allowing the core to change smoothly, and preparing for next year's dynasty battle.

Let’s take a look at what Da Fan writes here.

Throughout the article, "Under the leadership of Mo Wen, we strive to move forward"!

What about Wade's thriving?

What about Walker's transition support?

What about Payton’s delayed retirement?

What's the point of just counting on young people if you don't let them move on their own when you have a bunch of old guys in your hands?

"Don't worry, Mo's physical fitness is not a problem. It was reflected in the previous physical test report. With Mo's current physical fitness, it is not a problem to play effectively for 40 minutes in a game with low confrontation."

Dafan understood Riley's hidden meaning, but he just pretended to be stupid and didn't say anything.

Just kidding, Mo is omnipotent, but without Mo, nothing is possible.

As a person who has understood the true meaning of coaching work, Da Fan has a very clear view.

The so-called tactics are like love, it is at its best when it stays on paper.

Once it is put into practice and replaced with a realistic lens, the picture reflected will become quite distorted and cruel.

Even those famous coaches who are good at building an offensive system can only hand over the power of life and death to players who don't know what is going on in their heads when they get on the court.

Da Fan is basically a defensive player, but after winning a championship, he feels that he is an all-around talent?

Needless to say, he was really inflated, but he came to his senses again after being brutally beaten by Mo Wen with the substitute lineup during the team training match.

Why is it that the fried peanuts are still grinding?

Ahem.

So stop making trouble. Before Mo Wen read this manual, the content of Mo Wen was 99%!

Almost 1%, it was the rest time he left for Mo Wen.

"Have you ever thought about what you will do with the things you wrote when Mo leaves next year?" Riley changed from leaning on his back to leaning forward, looking straight at Da Fan with his eagle eyes.

"I let them try. No matter who is holding the ball, if they are not allowed to look for Mo, they will play in a mess." Da Fan's eyes flickered, but he did not flinch, explaining his helplessness.

"You and I have to face the facts." Riley knocked on the table again.

"I'm talking about the facts I'm facing now." Da Fan shook his head helplessly.

Dafan has also made many attempts during this period. Anyway, he doesn't know whether it will get better after a period of running-in, but according to Riley's thinking, it is really better to let Mo Wen lead the substitute in that scene.

At first, he tried to use the abilities of many stars to play passing games.

But in the absence of tacit understanding, the effect is not good. The offensive performance is like a graduate's PPT, stuck and rough.

Let Wade hold the ball. Wade can withstand the pressure, but his distribution of ball rights and judgment of the status of his teammates are far from satisfactory. His organization is that he cannot create opportunities for himself, so he defaults to his teammates.

The kind that has no chance. It was okay with the Big Three last season, and the other two tools can be ignored directly. But if we still play like this now, there is no guarantee that conflicts will not arise later.

It also has to be Mo Wen, as soon as the ball is handed to him, the entire team starts to run smoothly.

Both Walker and Finlay said frankly that they felt like going home when they were with Mo Wen.

Riley thought for a moment, raised his hand and put it down again.

He also realized that things couldn't be rushed. Everyone was paying attention to the "Galaxy Battleship". If he didn't want this luxurious lineup to become a joke, he could only temporarily accept the status quo and wait for the course to be slowly changed later.

Outside the office, training is still going on on the court.

"Dwyane, can you be slower in your pursuit? Has the rest of the summer made your legs rusty to death? I don't know, I thought you had a broken leg bone!"

"Shaq, you've been squatting in the paint for 10 seconds. This time I'm counting the seconds. You can't keep it. You have to pay for the fruit plate when we go out to play later!"

"It's almost a three-pointer, Gary (Payton). Trust me, don't be afraid. When it's time to shoot, I'm counting on you for rebounds in the new season!"

As a humble third grader, Mo Wen didn't know what leadership was, so he could only learn Danzi's methods crudely and inspire his teammates to strive for a better life.

The Heat players were so moved that they greeted Mo Wen with words starting with F.

As a silent giver with a soft ear, Mo Wen was quite touched to hear so many people who were supported by him call him Father in his lifetime. He turned around and set an example by increasing his funding efforts.

"It's just a training within the team. Why is Mo so cruel and so black?" Walker kneaded the muscles in his arms and chest and ribs, flattening his mouth and feeling aggrieved.

"This bitch usually likes to do this. If he couldn't be beaten, the labor and management would have sent him to the ward long ago. Just get used to it." Wade raised his head and sipped water from his mouth in despair.

, Mo Wen didn't attack his ribs today, but he had a full set of other interference methods in place.

"This is basketball, it's so exciting. You young people have been spoiled by the league. You either have fast breaks or face-to-face breakthroughs. Playing against each other is like playing house. If you continue like this, you won't be able to pass."

The girls in the WNBA in two years can shave their hair short and replace you!" Although Payton said it was not much better, his body was in pain but his heart was very relaxed and comfortable.

Because this is exactly the kind of basketball he is used to - with skills, confrontation, and trash talk; no whistles, no diving, and no good looks.

No matter whether it is victory or defeat in the end, at least the process is fulfilling.

Being pointed out by the old man, Wade couldn't reply directly. He was a little bored and suddenly thought of something.

"Anthony, how did you predict Mo's offense in the previous three rounds? With so many people defending Mo, this is the first time I've seen someone predict his offensive choices for three consecutive rounds."

In today's training match, Walker didn't have any highlights on the offensive end, but on the defensive end, he wiped his butt with gauze - showing off his hand.

He relied on his frivolous steps to determine Mo Wen's offensive line for three consecutive rounds. It was an amazing feat when Mo Wen's fake movements became more and more realistic.

Fat Cochlear touched the back of his head blankly.

"I don't know either. I just felt defensive and ran into it. I guess Mo's breakthrough is not as difficult to guard as the rumors say?"

"You're so powerful, you just feel like you're on your guard?" Wade's eyes widened, and there was even a hint of admiration in his round eyes.

Whether he defends seriously or follows his instincts, he is basically fooled by Mo Wen. Who would have thought that Walker, who has been called a colander before, is actually a talented defender?

"That's awesome. He just drank too much and was slow to react. Mo made 800 fake moves before he reacted first, and he happened to be bumped into one after another."

"You see, after Mo calmed down and read his defense, did he defend him even once? He didn't even do any fake moves. He basically just took one step. He's such a loser."

Gary Payton squinted his eyes and taunted with a crooked mouth.

"Hey, don't be so blunt, Gary, please save some face for me."

Walker is not annoyed by being said that. Firstly, he has a really good temper. Secondly, Payton was teammates with him in the Celtics last season, and the two also have a good relationship.

"Don't blame others if you don't fight well. I didn't tell you that that kid will come to you in person in a while. Just go out and fool around less this year. If you miss this village, it won't be so easy next year."

Payton, 37, said in an old-fashioned way.

He can be a licking dog in order to win the championship, but he can only lick the ones that can lead him to win the championship.

Although Walker is of great help to the Heat, it is not enough to make him fall down. Wade, a young man, does have the potential to be a big brother, but he still falls short under the background of Mo Wen.

Looking at Mo Wen fighting with Ao Pang on the other side, Payton stood up after resting for a while, put on another face, licked his face and came closer.

"What are you talking about? Add me!"

Looking at Payton who looked completely different from before, for some reason, his healed ribs suddenly started to hurt again.

…

In the bar that night, Ao Pang paid for his laziness on the inside during the day, and took his brothers out to treat him to enhance their relationship.

But seeing all the big guys holding milk and juice in their hands, a few people with ideas did not let go of their instincts.

"Isn't Michael (Finley) here?" Shaq asked after scanning around and realizing that someone seemed to be missing.

"He asked me to say sorry to everyone and said that I had an appointment with my girlfriend. He drove me here and then went back by himself."

Payton licked the wheat juice mixed with half a cup of juice, and his tone had an inexplicable meaning.

"If you don't come, don't come. If Xia Tian does this, he will definitely feel uncomfortable."

Mourning sighed, raised his cup, and looked at the girl on the dance floor with clean and pure admiration.

In the summer, during the labor negotiations, after the "Arenas Clause" and the "Mo Clause", the league introduced another "Houston Clause", which is the amnesty clause, based on the Knicks management's proposal and subsequent discussions.

Houston, the "Central Shooting King", accounts for nearly one-third of the team's salary space, but is unable to play. In order to remain competitive and recruit others, the team has to pay a high luxury tax. This is quite unreasonable.

After the discussion, a clause was introduced: the team can lay off any player, and while the guaranteed contract continues to be fulfilled, the player's salary will be included in the salary cap, but will not be included in the calculation of luxury tax.

The Knicks used this clause to waive "junk dog" Jerome Williams, who had tried to play dirty tricks on Mo Wen but failed and was close to being useless.

Other teams have also used this clause to clean up junk contracts within their teams.

And Finley, the former boss and captain of the Mavericks, with three years and $5,100 left on his contract, became the target of Cuban's surgery.

High salary, declining data year by year, rising rookies.

Cuban didn't even have to say it himself, the media helped him find countless excuses.

Cuban will still pay him a large contract for the next three years, and he will be free. He no longer needs to bear the reputation of being overpaid and incompetent. It seems to be a win-win situation.

But from a personal emotional perspective, it's not that simple.

As an honest man, Finley actually wants to stay in Dallas for the rest of his life. Moreover, among the players who were pardoned in this wave, although they are targeting big names with high salaries and low abilities, there are not many big names in actual implementation, and they are basically playing.

Those who don't play are really rubbish. He is the only one who is the biggest player among them.

It was said that he left in a dignified manner, but his face was almost completely humiliated.

Historically, he accepted a minimum salary for the championship and joined the Spurs, who had just won the championship. However, in this time and space, the Spurs were swept, so it was naturally not a suitable place for him, so he came to the Heat.

The difference is that the atmosphere within the Heat's team is not as bland as the Spurs'.

It's not very suitable for an honest person like him.

…

The Heat were drinking juice at the bar, while in the West, in a training facility in Los Angeles that had not yet fallen into darkness half an hour later, the sunset in the shape of a window slipped out of the court and climbed onto the courtside benches.

The caddy who got off work turned on all the lights before leaving.

On the court, the sound of the basketball hitting the ground alternated with trash talk in both halves.

"Try harder, you loser, you've grown so big for nothing!"

"I ate two pieces of pizza for lunch and all of them were leaked, right? Are you okay?"

…

"Stop wasting your efforts, little one, you won't be able to grab the ball!"

"Labour and capital are old, but to win you, one hand is enough!"

…

One is paranoid, the other is mentally ill, and the two old men are madly torturing the young people in front of them. Not only in basketball moves, but also in trash talk, the voices are getting louder and louder, for fear of being outcompeted by each other.

It's just that the two young people who were bullied showed two different attitudes.

The relatively older man looked haggard and fell into a state of self-doubt, while the little man on the other side, who was knocked around and grinning, gritted his teeth and fought against the old man in front of him.

"Is it really okay to let them do this, Phil?" In the player tunnel, a gray-haired old man asked the KFC grandpa next to him.

"Young people, it's a good thing to experience some setbacks. They are all players with great potential. If we want to make a difference later, we must catalyze their growth." Phil Jackson chewed gum and looked at the field coldly.

everything.

"But Chris's performance is fine, but Kwame's kid's condition seems a little wrong?" The old man next to him frowned, a little worried.

"We are not nannies, and I don't know how to do the job of a nanny. It's either a success or a failure. The spotlight of a superstar is not easy to take advantage of."

The Zen master looked at Kwame Brown with a little disappointment in his eyes, but still had no intention of intervening.

This was originally a gamble, and the only regret was the loss of Peterson, an excellent outside wing defensive specialist.

"The damn labor and management have had enough of you. What's the point of bullying others in a one-on-one fight? Why don't you have the guts to have a 2V2!"

After falling to the ground, looking at the way Sprewell shook his butt at him, Paul, who was a good man and refused to suffer the consequences before his eyes, finally aroused the anger hidden in his heart.

Kobe on the other side stopped when he heard this.

The madman tilted his mouth.

"Hey, what, you finally admit that you are a waste? You can't beat me and you want Kobe to avenge you?"

The little cannon who just retreated again and again did not retreat even half a step this time.

"No need for Kobe, Kwame and I will team up and beat you and Kobe."

The madman and Kobe grinned at the same time. Kwame Brown on the other side had a confused expression on his face.

The angry little cannon didn't give Kwame Brown a chance to refuse and dragged him to the half court on one side and took a stance.

Five minutes later...

The familiar taunting voice sounded from the stadium again.

"Hahaha, what's the difference? Rookie + Cai Kun are still the same trash!"

"Your pick-and-roll cooperation is like shit, hahaha, you want to run before you know how to walk, boy, you succeeded in making me laugh!"

Xiaopao, who was sitting on the ground, looked at the two laughing devils with arms akimbo under the basket in humiliation.

These two damn bastards!

Numb, Kwame Brown stretched out his hands to Paul.

This was how he was criticized and teased by Jordan three years ago. Even after Jordan retired, this nightmare still has not completely dissipated.

Now, the nightmare three years ago has a sequel, but fortunately, he has a teammate who is as unlucky as him this time.

Paul stood up and looked at the two people who were smiling and bending over unwillingly, but the composition in front of him suddenly gave him a bold idea.

Picking up the ball from the ground, he secretly stuffed it into Kwame Brown's side.

"Deduct a kwame from them, hurry up, deduct them now."

Kwame Brown didn't react immediately, but Paul's continued urging allowed him to figure out what this guy was thinking.

The positions of these two people are indeed very suitable for being separated.

"Hurry up, don't hesitate, take one of them and kill them, Farke, this is our only chance!"

Kwame Brown knew that Paul was playing with fire and seeking death with this suggestion, but... it was so exciting.

The opportunity was too late to miss, and the power of the black man's blood was triggered. Kwame Brown still defeated the fear in his heart. Under Paul's command, he just made slight adjustments and accelerated directly. He flew in front of the two people in two or three steps.

Before the two of them could raise their bodies, Kwame Brown flew past the two of them with a big Chinese character of the same name. Paul's pass from the board was timely and Kwame Brown received the pass comfortably.

boom--

Kobe and Madman, who felt something flying over their heads, looked at each other, and then both looked behind them.

"RUN! Kwame, RUN!"

The revenge was successful, Paul waved his fist, but immediately realized something, shouted and ran towards the safe passage.

The champion who had just landed heard the sound and did not dare to hesitate in his excitement. He also ran away in the direction of Paul before the two villains in front of him could react.

When Kwame Brown stormed out of the door with a roar, the two people under the basket finally came to their senses.

"What the hell, these two bastards!"

"Fake, let's go, labor and management are going to kill them!"

When the two started chasing again, the two young men had already used their speed to escape from the arena with their car keys.

Added some daily stories, this is from last night;

There will be some foreshadowing and layout this season, so the follow-up won't be too long.

If you think it's worth it, you can leave a message...I will advance the progress appropriately.
