Build a Dream Dynasty

Chapter 657 The deal is concluded (1215 subscriptions)

In the first game after Leonard's injury, the Hornets obviously wanted to make some fuss by taking advantage of the Nets' perimeter defense disadvantages. However, after the opening, the Nets' offensive speed increased to full gear, which made the Hornets a little overwhelmed. In this game, the Nets' style of play changed significantly. They used fast-paced offensive and defensive transitions to cover up the team's defensive problems, and at the same time, the Hornets' core Al Jefferson could not find his own suitable offensive rhythm.

After Leonard was injured, Aminu got the chance to start. Thanks to the weak scoring ability of the Hornets small forward McGee, Aminu performed well on the defensive end, and the offensive end made what he should do , If you have a chance, hit the basket, and if you don't have a chance, stand in the bottom corner to open up space. Both Curry and McCollum have the ability to attack with the ball, but it also downplays his weakness of lack of offensive means.

For the Hornets, Walker and Ben Gordon each have a good ability to score points, but the Hornets' backcourt combination has never been known for its efficiency. disadvantage.

Porzingis, who shined against the Spurs in the last game, performed even better under this open offensive system. In terms of athletic ability, he is not a level better than Lopez, although his speed is not so fast. , but waving his big arms and long legs, one step at a time and a half, Porzingis's performance is full of presence, and the NBC commentator is constantly praising his amazing talent.

"Looks like another good deal from issac."

Porzingis did have some reservations in the process of trial training everywhere, and did not show such good athletic ability, otherwise, there is indeed a possibility of being intercepted in the 5th to 10th pick. Of course, this also proves that Jiang Mingliang did have contact with Porzingis in private, but who cares? Even if you count the two picks at the end of the first round that the Nets were sacked, at such a price to trade for a top talent insider, no one would be willing to make such a deal.

In the fan forum and the Nets zone, everyone unanimously praised Jiang Mingliang as a god. Especially in Huaxia, the fans of the Nets can walk sideways, and no one will look down on them except Huo Mi.

In the whole game, Porzingis scored 21 points and 9 rebounds, becoming the second hero of the team's victory. Curry scored a large double-double with 31 points and 12 assists in the game. After Leonard was injured, he took on more responsibilities.

After a wonderful performance, the outside world's voices about Tiporzingis' starting start became louder and louder. In this regard, Jiang Mingliang and Stevens were unmoved. The big man must be used sparingly, this is the lesson Jiang Mingliang has learned.

McCollum scored 17 points and 6 assists in this game. His performance has always been good, and his offensive potential is also optimistic. The biggest problem is that his compatibility does not match the Nets, or he is not suitable as a championship ball. Curry's partner on the team.

There are many teams in the league who can see this, but the problem is that they can't produce the 3D players that the Nets need, and they want to take advantage of the fire, and they are unwilling to send valuable draft picks. They can only miss this potential in vain. Nova. The main trading partner of the Nets is the Knicks in the same city.

In principle, both parties already know the chips they are willing to hand over. It is necessary to pull in a third party to provide an insider to make the Nets willingly send Boban. For this reason, Mayfair Jackson approached the Lakers, Trail Blazers, Bulls, and Timberwolves, but all of them ended up without a problem.

At the last moment, the Magic joined the deal and became a third party. After getting Love, the team's substitute insider Kyle O'Quinn's playing time dropped sharply, and the contract was about to expire after the end of the season. It is difficult to reach a contract extension with him, and it is a matter of course to get some draft picks in return for participating in the transaction. The final trading plan is that the Nets sent McCollum, Kirk Hinrich, Boban, the 2015 second-round pick and part of the cash, and got jr Smith, Kyle O'Quinn, and the Knicks are protected The first round of picks (15-year lottery protection, 16 top ten protections, 17 years and 18 top three protections. If all protections are achieved, it will be converted into two second-round picks in 19 years. Knicks), the Knicks sent out with protection In the first round, jr Smith, a second-round swap, got McCollum, Boban, and Hinrich. The Magic sent Kyle O'Quinn and got a second-round pick and a second-round swap. Each of the three takes what they need.

Not even an All-Star player was involved. This transaction is actually not enough in terms of weight. But this deal happened between the Knicks and the Nets, so there is something to watch. As rivals with fierce competition in the New York market, although the two teams have not deep historical ties, they also have a direct conflict of interest. I did not expect that this could also be traded directly.

In terms of the trade itself, it appears that the Nets are the only losers among the three. With Jiang Mingliang here, the pick must be a bright spot, but McCollum was selected with the No. 7 pick, and he was sold with a first round of protection and a garbage contract? As for replacing Boban with O'Quinn, it is relatively understandable. With the continuous upgrading of Porzingis, Boban can get less and less playing time, and let him go out to fight for more game time. A big contract is also normal, and O'Quinn is at least a usable substitute player. Jiang Mingliang is good enough in the draft, but in terms of trading, there are also brilliant pens and flowers, but mediocre operations abound. This is normal. After all, there is no general manager with five dimensions of 100. With the eye-catching operation, Nets fans will not lose confidence in Jiang Mingliang.

There is no doubt that the Knicks made a brilliant deal. Although the team has no shortage of people on the back line, McCollum is easy to upgrade and increase in value in the Knicks, whether it is playing for performance or as a bargaining chip. Hinrich and Boban are also more practical players.

The transaction documents are submitted to the league, and the players involved in the transaction go to the new club for a physical examination. Judging from the medical examination report, the decline of jr Smith is quite obvious.

The gentle township is the hero's grave, and the luxurious life in New York is both a paradise and a nightmare for a player with poor self-control like jr. He enjoyed boundless joy here, but he was also criticized by thousands of people. But the reason why JR has fallen so sharply is that in addition to his own character, the team gave Mayo a maximum salary contract, and JR's long-term comeback has not received due recognition is also an important reason. In addition, Mayo occupied the main position as soon as he came, which made JR's mentality a little unbalanced. During the offseason, he worked hard, did not play seriously in the preseason, and only resumed systematic training at the beginning of the regular season. After his poor performance, he was DNPed by head coach Fisher, making him even more lazy. It's no wonder the indicators don't drop!

However, after the physical examination, Jiang Mingliang gave JR Smith enough trust and respect in his conversation with JR Smith. Jiang Mingliang made it clear that JR will be an important member of the team this season, and the team will arrange him to enter the starting lineup as soon as possible after his physical condition recovers. But at the same time, Jiang Mingliang also put forward his own restrictions on JR. After one o'clock in the evening, he should not appear in nightclubs again.

It is not uncommon for athletes to go to nightclubs. In the Nets team, the training mad Leonard will also go to nightclubs for entertainment. The team's new darling Porzingis has been familiar with many nightclubs in New York, including other players. Strange. But Jiang Mingliang also put forward his own restrictions to them, that is, not to affect the rest time.

It is almost inevitable for players to decline in their status after being attached to the women of the Kardashian family. Therefore, there is also the stalk of the Kardashian women B being poisonous, accusing them of draining the energy of the players. This is also true, but the method of draining energy has nothing to do with draining sperm. The woman who hits the Kardashian family must first get used to being famous in all aspects. First of all, you have to spend a lot of time on styling, and treat appearances as frequently as breathing. You need to hang out with people in that circle. They often eat, drink and play together, appearing in various parties at night, Ke Yao added to the fun, let alone the fact that there is no evidence, playing all night is a must. In this way, how much energy you can devote to training and competition. Not to mention, staying up late is one of the behaviors that have the greatest impact on the human body, and it is as harmful as smoking!

Compared with these, excessive indulgence is not even a fart.

In the social rules of the United States, neither the general manager nor the head coach has the right to restrict the private life of players during non-working hours. So Jiang Mingliang can only be a "suggestion", not a restriction. It is also difficult for him to predict how JR will respond. However, JR's reaction is indeed difficult to predict.

"Is it okay to postpone until two o'clock?"

"..."

The point is not time, but persistence. As long as JR Smith can persist and develop a correct living habit, then his recovery in training and competition will be a matter of course. Jiang Mingliang also hopes that the stalk of "JR is not nervous, every year is an All-Star" will come true.

. . . . . .

The documents for the transaction have not yet been approved by the league, so even though JR and O'Quinn have come to Brooklyn, they still cannot play in the team's home game against the Houston Rockets.

Last season, the Rockets reproduced the true qualities of Texas Xiaoqiang. A seemingly mediocre lineup went all the way to the ninth position in the West, which also gave Rockets fans hope. This season, the team got TJ Warren, a winger with strong immediate combat power in the draft, to further enhance the team's strength. The addition of Motiejunas has also improved the team's internal strength. However, since the start of the game, the Rockets' performance has not been as good as last season, and they are still in the lottery zone after they have been strengthened.

There are many high-quality role players, but there is a lack of core players who can change the occupation. The two most reliable offensive ends of the team are Dragic and Whiteside. When encountering a strong defense, the situation is really not easy to open.

In the last game, facing the Hornets with battering rams inside, the Nets accelerated the pace of the game and exhausted Al Jefferson with fast-paced offense and defense. In this game, facing the Rockets who are not good at positional warfare Team, the Nets took the initiative to slow down the pace of the game, grinding ground with the Rockets.

In the Rockets' starting lineup, McAway has no shots at all, and Dragic and Iguodala are not too reliable shooting spots. The team's responsibility to open up the space is all on power forward Morris? Such a team is caught in a positional battle, and the offense is really difficult to play, but at the same time, all defenses are online, and most of them are defenders with long arms and wingspan, which happens to be the team that is most suitable for defending the Nets. Indeed, they also put the Nets in a difficult battle, especially Whiteside and the substitute Motiejunas. After being guided by Olajuwon, Whiteside has not only made great progress on the defensive end , The footwork on the offensive end is also better. While maintaining a tough defense, he caused a lot of trouble for the Nets inside. In the first half of the game, the Nets only led by 1 point 52:51.

At the beginning of the second half, it was the Rockets who took the lead. McAway and Iguodala successfully intercepted the ball from the library twice in a row. The fast break was completed, and then Iguodala raised his hand against Aminu's defense. Hit a three-pointer to help the Rockets widen the point difference.

In a rare moment of adversity for the Nets, Carter, who got the chance to start in this game, stood up. First, he used his experience to create a shooting foul for McAway, seized two opportunities for free throws, and then used Kuyou in the positional battle. The shooting space created by gravity hits a three-pointer and helps the team catch up.

In the stalemate, the experience of the Nets played a decisive role. Curry and Lopez played consecutive offenses in the second half of the third quarter, helping the Nets gain an 8-point lead and enter the fourth quarter.

In the fourth quarter of the game, the Nets strengthened the inside double-teaming against Whiteside. Although Da Baibian's singles ability was well trained by Dameng, his ability to break double-teams needs to be improved. The Rockets' outside shooting is very average. , If he doesn't get the ball out of the outside in time, the Rockets' offense will be a little resigned.

The Nets took the opportunity to widen the point difference and basically ended the suspense of the game.

At 105:95, the Nets won at home. With this victory, the score also surpassed the 76ers led by James and Harden, and came to the number one throne in the Eastern Conference. (12_3)

In the whole game, Curry contributed 28+10 data. Although at the beginning of the season, he encountered some criticism due to the rotation, but as the season progressed, with Leonard injured, Curry led the team back to No. 1 in the Eastern Conference. One, they have regained the initiative in the evaluation of the MVP competition.

After the game, Curry also expressed his views on the transaction: "CJ and Boban are very important members of the team. I regret their departure and wish them good luck in the future. JR and Kyle I've had conversations with them, they're excited about coming to the Nets, and I'm optimistic about it. The important thing is, I trust issac's decision."

Curry welcomed JR with open arms. To a certain extent, it also made the Nets fans slightly less worried about JR, but what really determines the attitude of the fans is JR's own performance.
