Build a Dream Dynasty

Chapter 218: The End of the Season

The result of the lottery is not unexpected. The league that has just found a buyer for the Hornets must give a little sweetness to the newcomers. In the end, the Hornets won the No. 1 lottery with a probability of 13.7%. The rookie coach Monty Williams who was in charge of the lottery celebrated with excitement on the stage. With the addition of Anthony Davis, a potential insider, the Hornets The road to reconstruction also has its own direction.

The insane Bobcats finally "only" got the second pick, which is far from their expectations. After all, although this year is a big draft year, there are only rookies at the level of Anthony Davis. , Several other rookies, including Bill, Barnes, and Drummond, who are the most optimistic, have more or less problems. Whoever they choose needs to test Joe's vision.

Of course, according to the conclusions drawn from Joe's past operations, the role of the high-ranking picks he went for was to help the teams behind get rid of a wrong answer.

Followed by Wizards (3), Cavaliers (4), Kings (5), Trail Blazers (6), Warriors (7), Raptors (8), Pistons (9), Hornets (10), Pacers (11) , Bucks (12), Suns (13), Rockets (14).

For the Rockets, it is quite embarrassing to win the lottery championship for two consecutive years. But fortunately, Whiteside, the team's key center, has improved significantly this season. The average of 15+11 per game vaguely makes people see the hope of continuing the glorious tradition of the team's center position. At least in terms of statistics, the Leonard that Jiang Mingliang worked so hard to get is not so brilliant.

The Nets' second-round pick is the 51st pick. For Jiang Mingliang, if he wants to get Drummond Green, he still has to work hard to improve his pick. It's not a difficult task. After all, second-round picks are not valuable things for most teams. If they catch up with any management team that is in a good mood, they can buy them with cash.

After the draft, Jiang Mingliang started another negotiation with Lopez, theoretically speaking, it was also the last time. Basically, if there is no agreement this time, Lopez will definitely enter the free market as a restricted free agent and accept the league The offer of each team is ultimately up to the Nets to decide whether to match or not.

The prospect of the team is here, and all the efforts Lopez has made since entering the league are also here. Jiang Mingliang didn't play any emotional cards, and went straight to the point, asking Lopez to give his asking price.

64 million in 4 years! Lopez's asking price is very firm, there is no room for maneuver. Perhaps because he thinks that his existence is the key to the Nets' future battle with the Heat, Lopez sees himself higher at the moment, and the final result is also unhappy. It is conceivable that even in the future, Jiang Mingliang is willing to match the contracts offered by other teams to Lopez, and the relationship between the management and Lopez will never be restored to its previous appearance. Even after finishing the talks with Lopez and his agent, Jiang Mingliang and West formally discussed using Lopez as the main bargaining chip to trade Howard.

Of course, West is a thousand willing, ten thousand in favor, after all, that is Howard the Warcraft!

"Let's discuss it after Curry's deal is concluded." Hearing this sentence, West also understood that no matter what, Jiang Mingliang was determined to trade to Curry this summer.

The Finals between the Thunder and the Heat was hailed as a duel between the two strongest small forwards in the league. Even in the past two seasons, it can be said that this is a duel between the top 2 in the league. The strength comparison between the two teams is also showing a 50-50 situation. The Big Three of the Heat are stronger and more experienced, but both Bosh and Wade obviously sacrificed for James, and the compatibility between the three is not perfect. On the Thunder team's side, it is a talent alliance that has been hand in hand since entering the league. The eldest brother has his hands above his knees, the second brother is loyal and courageous, the third brother has a beard on his face, and the fourth brother has a spear. Everyone's progress and growth have each other's marks. Strong players have also effectively filled the team's vacancies. On the bench, there are Fisher who is good at playing key shots, Collison who is hardworking on the defensive end, and one of the few rookies who failed to play in the Thunder. Aldridge.

Forty-eight of the 50 states in the United States clearly support the Thunder. It is conceivable how disgusting the Heat and James are!

In addition to Florida, where Miami is located, Washington State, where Seattle is located, has always supported the Heat. The reason is simple. The Seattle Supersonics and the Oklahoma City Thunder do not recognize each other. Sonic, and the Thunder did not accept the idea of ​​the Supersonic history from the owner to the fans. Perhaps, only when the league expands again, someone will consider rebuilding the team in Seattle and restore the glory of the Supersonics in the past.

But it's clear that the vision of the fans has little to do with how the two teams perform on the field. In the duel between the two teams, between the leading stars, LeBron James is obviously better than Durant by a lot. Although from the data point of view, Durant is not inferior, but the picture presented on the scene, it is true that Durant is really unable to match James on the defensive end. In order to ensure Durant's efficiency on the offensive end, Harden or Sefrosa can only forcibly fight against James, and Durant enjoys the treatment of defending Chalmers. However, even so, Chalmers still Showed a good performance in the finals.

Another reason for the Thunder's failure was the slow reaction of head coach Stevens. Facing the Heat's lineup of one big and four small, the Thunder insisted on themselves and kept Perkins on the court. As a result, the entire Battier, who performed very mediocre this season, shot 60%+ three-pointers in the finals, extinguishing the Thunder's hope of winning the championship. This section of the finals also represents the development trend of the league. The value of a blue-collar center like Perkins who has little contribution on the offensive end and can only be a meat shield on the defensive end has been greatly reduced.

In the ninth year of entering the league, James finally realized his dream of a championship. At the end of the game, James knelt on the ground and cried bitterly.

Whether it is a decision or a group, a championship can wash everything away. If you put James' name together with Kobe and Duncan, no one will mock him with the title of the championship. Even, James is not yet 28 years old, and he is already in a team that seems to be at its peak for a long time. It is only a matter of time before he reaps the honor.

"So, have you figured out how to beat the Heat?" Lying on Jiang Mingliang's lap, Taylor raised her eyebrows and asked.

Jiang Mingliang can always do many things that ordinary people can't do, Taylor Swift also wants to know if there is any way for him to lead the team over this mountain.

"Of course I have. My plan starts with the Thunder!" Jiang Mingliang smiled and had a plan in mind.

The day when he stirred up the situation is not far away!
