Build a Dream Dynasty

Facing Curry, Irving, who is strong when he is strong, can always show a state much higher than usual. And Irving's comprehensive singles skills also allow him to have the offensive power to dismember the Nets' defensive formation when facing the Nets' key defenses. As West values, he is definitely A perfect singles player, but apart from singles, he has not yet figured out how to be a leader and help the team win. In the second quarter of the game, Owen made 7 of 8 shots in a single quarter and scored 17 points, including some wonderful goals at the top five level, but the point difference remained at 17 points. Judging from the scene, it may give people the illusion of "Irving tried his best, and his teammates are in the CBA". In essence, Irving just completed scoring in singles.

If you really want Curry to let go of singles, Curry may not be worse than Irving, but Curry is more accustomed to striking a balance between personal offense and organizing the whole team, and driving teammates to integrate into the game. For example, Leonard was injured, and Barnes had just replaced him as a small forward in the first few games. He couldn't score or defend. He was definitely not a qualified starter. In the starting games, he averaged 10 points and 6 rebounds per game. He has found his position in the starting lineup, and Curry's trust and help are indispensable.

Irving's fans, Harden's fans, Paul's fans and even James' fans all attribute Curry's achievements to two words and the environment. They all think that Curry has the best lineup, and the Nets have the best team. It is suitable for his lineup, but in fact, before the start of last season, no one thought that the Nets could win the championship, no one thought that Fernandez was the best shooting guard in the league, no one believed that Leonard could develop such a Good offensive ability, no one is optimistic that a power forward of Green's type will show such value. Among them, Curry's constant adjustment is crucial. He doesn't need to be like James, the team equips him with the Royal Salute. He takes the initiative to cater to the style of play of other teammates and find a point that makes everyone play comfortably. This is the key to the Nets' achievements today.

There are only two superstars in the league who can really do this, one is Duncan and the other is Curry.

To put it bluntly, if you let the current Curry parachute to the current Cavaliers, maybe he can't reverse the current situation, but if you let Curry enter the Cavaliers as the No. 1 pick two years ago, it is impossible for today's Cavaliers kind of situation. This is the gap between Curry and Irving.

As the game entered the third quarter, Irving's fiery touch began to decline, and the other offensive players of the Cavaliers did not stand up. Fortunately, although the Cavaliers performed mediocre on the offensive end, the defensive end pinched the eagerness of some Nets players to perform and made targeted defenses, which limited the Nets' offense to a certain extent. The point difference widened to more than 20 points, but the 18-point gap can basically guarantee that Curry can clock in and get off work.

Maybe waiting until James' return can fundamentally change this Cavaliers team. Owen and James can also be regarded as a pair of complementary partners. However, when soldiers come to block, water comes to cover. It's not time to be afraid yet!

What if James doesn't return to the Cavaliers?

In the fourth quarter, when Curry did not appear, McCollum and Fernandez led the team to play a good offense. In the end, the Nets defeated the Cavaliers 124:108 and continued to sit firmly on the league's first throne .

Although the team is in a good state, Jiang Mingliang, who has the mentality of "being prepared for danger in times of peace", has keenly found some problems with the team. So far this season, although McCollum's statistics are pretty good, but his performance as a guest point guard is really very average. When Leonard is healthy, the team has a considerable fault tolerance rate, which can give him more time to run in, but after Leonard is injured, the Nets' lineup advantage is not so great. With the decline of some players this season, the Nets, which seem to have a stronger lineup, need more stable points to properly reinforce, for example, in the position of backup point guard.

However, it is not easy to strengthen the team's back line in the middle of the season. The team doesn't have a lot of chips in their hands, but they have high requirements for substitute candidates. Xiang Prigioni, an old point guard, is more than enough to serve as a substitute in other teams, but he is obviously not suitable for the team's tactics in the Nets. , was struggling. In addition, the total salary of the Nets this season has exceeded the luxury tax threshold. In other words, the team cannot take players whose annual salary is 15% higher than the players in the team as trading targets. Considering the team's potential bargaining chips, Seth Curry, Prigioni, and Yi Jianlian's salaries are not very high, and they can basically only be selected among point guards with a salary of less than 3 million.

Another way is to select suitable players in NBDL, but this difficulty is not small. After the start of the season, most of the really capable ones have already gone to Europe or the CBA to make money. Those who still stay in NBDL with a monthly subsidy of several thousand dollars either have NBA dreams, or are really not strong enough, even in Europe. Or the CBA doesn't even look at them as foreign aid. Jiang Mingliang went through the list twice, but even he couldn't find any suitable candidates, which showed how difficult it was.

The final discussion ended without a problem, but Jiang Mingliang didn't intend to give up his efforts and try to find it slowly.

Back home, Jessica was talking on the phone with her best friend in the garden. Jiang Mingliang saw her and walked over.

"I won't talk to you for now, that's it, bye." Seeing Jiang Mingliang approaching, Jessica hung up the phone quickly.

"Who are you calling?" Jiang Mingliang tested Jessica's learning progress in Chinese. After the other party's confused reaction, he was disappointed and repeated it in English.

"A friend in Korea, we have a very good relationship." Jessica said.

"It's eight o'clock in the morning Korean time, and we started chatting early in the morning. We really have a good relationship." Jiang Mingliang nodded in approval.

"It's not a member of the group, it's Goo Hara from kara." Perhaps worried that Jiang Mingliang might misunderstand something, Jessica explained, "I haven't contacted them yet."

Inside Girls' Generation, there are people who have a hostile relationship with Jessica, and of course there are also people who are on Jessica's side, but Jiang Mingliang clearly told Jessica not to contact them too much at this stage, otherwise it will be bad for herself and others.

"I know. I also believe that you are sensible." Jiang Mingliang patted Jessica on the shoulder and reminded, "Go take a shower first, and watch DVDs together at night."

Although he has been by Jessica's side from life to career, he still maintains a deep trust with each other. He does not intend to make Jessica a canary in a cage, but occasionally reminds her what to do , what not to do.
