Build a Dream Dynasty
Chapter 682 Buyout Market
The situation where the west is strong and the east is weak is improving little by little, not only reflected in the cards of both All-Star teams, but also in the resistance of each team to the Nets. In the first two seasons, there were only two or three teams in the Eastern Conference that could compete with the Nets. Other teams were upset if they won the Nets. But this season, not to mention the rankings of the 76ers, Bucks, and Eagles. Among the top teams, among the 5 to 8 teams, the Cavaliers and Raptors have all experienced defeating the Nets, and the Wizards have also pushed the Nets to the end, and the game is indeed getting more and more difficult to play.
Without Paul George, the Warriors have completely entered a state of poor performance this season. Bogut was seriously injured in the game against the Spurs not long ago, and he announced his reimbursement for the season. The team also continues to consolidate its advantage as the team with the most losses in the NBA. It is worth mentioning that the current second-ranked team is also the Nets' city rival, the Knicks.
And the team with the fewest losses is the Nets' next opponent, the Charlotte Hornets. Although the Hornets inherited the team history of the previous Charlotte Hornets, strictly speaking, their predecessor was the Charlotte Bobcats, which entered the league in 2004. Of course you lose less.
Qiao Gang's leader team building is indeed a masterpiece. How good he is when he plays basketball, how stupid he is after being the boss. . . . . . Cough cough, even if the foundation is close, it is not enough to make two playoffs in the weak Eastern Conference, but he can really do it. What's even more powerful is that in every draft, countless correct answers can be missed, and it is absolutely perfect to clear mines for others. After finally leading the team to the playoffs last season, the team left many substitute players this season, but the corresponding supplementary players are not enough, and the Hornets have once again entered the stage of poor performance.
To be honest, even if it is bad, you still choose to do bad in a draft year, isn't it good? There are only a few high-level rookies next season, and it doesn't seem to make much sense to be poor!
For the Nets, Walker and Jefferson didn't hesitate. Perhaps Howard exposed the Nets' interior defense problems, and the Hornets also wanted to use Jefferson's offensive power in the interior. Cheap. How should I put it, now many weak teams are fighting fiercely with the Nets. The reason is that they have been beaten too badly by the Nets in the past two or three seasons, and they want to save some face.
However, this is the same reason that Boozerke Yao Ming is basically helpless when he meets Howard. Howard dominates the league but has to be called Dad when he meets Yao Ming. Yao Ming is really helpless when he meets Boozer. Although Jefferson can also rely on strength to take a few balls from Porzingis alone, his advantage is obviously not as great as Howard. And Jefferson's defensive awareness is weak and slow, and he can be brought back to the field by Porzingis. The Hornets can't take advantage of this matchup between the old and the young.
Curry and JR are still points that the Hornets can't solve. Everyone is used to Curry's excellence and how easy it is for him to suppress other point guards. Relatively speaking, Walker is too dependent on his own breakthroughs, without a stable projection, relying on strong breakthroughs again and again to help defend against the inside, and the mobile Porzingis is too blue.
But inefficiency is inefficiency. Walker has an advantage of good physical strength and durability. When Curry is resting, he still stays on the court to lead the team to chase points. One advantage is that he leads the team to maintain the point difference within 15 points. Curry You can increase some playing time and improve your own statistics. After all, the Thunder's Westbrook is bound to win the title of scoring champion this year. He has averaged 25 shots per game this season. Just give it away for nothing.
Stevens was able to understand Curry's thoughts, and arranged more tactics for him. Curry, who is good at attacking with the ball and off the ball, is difficult for the Hornets to guard against. After all, it is said that "team battles can be If you lose, Curry must die", but who can really double attack the opponent's player without the ball? But without a defender of the level of Mr. Tony, it is really difficult to defend Curry without the ball. Neither Walker nor Ben Gordon of the Hornets could do this. 41 points, another big step towards the goal of scoring champion.
123:104, the Nets defeated the Hornets away. (32-11)
The season was in full swing, and at this moment, the Pistons broke a big news. The team suddenly announced that the team had waived forward Josh Smith.
Within 48 hours of the announcement, teams with cap space can claim it directly, but they need to take over Josh's contract in full. Therefore, generally few teams directly claim it. If no one is interested within 48 hours, Josh will become a free agent and can sign with any team. There is no doubt that he will trigger another round of looting in the NBA.
In Josh's waiver statement, the Pistons president of operations and coach Stan Van Gundy said: "In the first half of the season, the team's performance has not met expectations. In order to regain focus and direction, we need to make some changes. We will prioritize. Adjusting to developing young players while expanding the role of other players in the current rotation to improve performance and build the future. When some players expand their role, others have to reduce their role. For a 10-year all-around veteran like Josh Considering it, we feel that giving him freedom is the best solution. We have full respect for Josh as a player and as a person."
Josh Smith averaged 13.1 points, 7.2 rebounds and 4.7 assists per game this season, but his field goal percentage was only 39.1%, his three-point percentage was only 24.3%, and his free throw percentage was less than 50%, only 46.8%. So far this season, the Pistons have only achieved a record of 14 wins and 29 losses, ranking fourth from the bottom in the Eastern Conference.
Considering that Josh Smith was an All-Star player two years ago and was once one of the nemesis of the Nets. He is only 30 years old this year. No matter how you look at it, he is a player who will be of great use after activation. Many strong teams have started to compete for him.
Among them, the Bucks, Spurs, Mavericks, Thunder, and Raptors are the most active. If you come out, you will earn grandma's house. There are not many teams with this idea.
However, Smith's two favorite teams, the Nets and 76ers, have shown no interest in him. For the Nets, there are mainly two reasons. First, unless the team encounters a special situation or encounters a very meaningful goal, it is not willing to lay off marginal players in the team in the mid-term to fight for veterans. The problem of style is that he is not too satisfied with Josh Smith. Whether it is his style of play or personality, it may not fit this Nets team.
In a sense, the 76ers have the same idea. When he was in the Nets before, Schneider was stricter than Stevens in terms of discipline. It's normal to like.
In this regard, Smith was a little disappointed. The two most competitive teams clearly rejected him. The next step was the consideration of personal relationships. They grew up together and found that Howard sent him an invitation on behalf of the Raptors. The Raptors This season's lineup is also very good, and the current record has been promoted to the fifth position in the Eastern Conference. The atmosphere in the team is also very good. Smith also regards the Raptors as the forefront of his options.
On January 24, the Nets, who returned to New York, ushered in a recovery record at home, and seemed to see the Celtics hopeful for the playoffs again.
The Celtics' recovery this season stems from an inconspicuous transaction. The team sent Rondo and traded Thomas Jr. from the Kings. After joining the team, one of the shortest players in the league today, Immediately, he showed an amazing ability to score points. In an average of 36 minutes of playing time per game, he could score 21.2 points. The problem was best covered up, Bradley can be called one of the best defenders in the league at the scoring position, Turner also effectively improved his defense in the Celtics, and Stoudemire was reimbursed for the season Later, the Celtics traded blue-collar center Robin Lopez from the Trail Blazers. Compared with his brother, Robin's offensive end is not so eye-catching, but he really works hard on the defensive end. Tadmire has a better effect, and he works very hard on the court.
The team's relatively weak offense has been compensated, and the Celtics seem to find that they have everything. Xiao Luo is responsible for the defense of the inside, and Randall is responsible for elbowing from the outside to the inside. Yes, that’s right, Randall’s offensive defense is to open the way with elbows. After entering the league for half a season, Randall has already acted when he was going inside. The strength was too great, and he clashed with his opponent four times. After all, no one's ribs are as strong as other people's elbows. Even if you let Tyson come, you can't touch Randall's elbow. At the small forward position, Turner is organized on the offensive end and can play back, and the defensive end is not bad now. Not to mention Bradley, Jiang Mingliang has been chasing a 3D player for a long time.
Compared with the past two matches, the morale of the Celtics is obviously different. However, in this game, facing the Nets, Gentry made adjustments to the lineup. He replaced Thomas Jr. with Smart as the starter. The team returned to the tortoise shell of the season's opening, no offense.
For nothing else, Gentry knows very well that if you play against the Nets, you don't know how to die.
On the line, Smart and Bradley teamed up to restrain Curry, and when the two sides were exhausted, they went to Thomas Jr. to harvest. Gentry's abacus was sound, and his move really caught Stevens by surprise. , To be honest, Stevens really didn't expect Gentry to change before the game.
However, it was not Gentry's changes that affected the game, but an accident on the court. Near the end, when JR grabbed an offensive rebound, he landed on Smart's foot and unfortunately sprained off. He only played 9 minutes and scored 5 points and 2 rebounds.
Although Stema loves to confront and perform, he really can't blame him for this ball to speak conscientiously. It was indeed an accident. Someone in the Nets was injured again, and all the pressure was on Curry again. To be honest, this was a bit too embarrassing for Curry.
Who would have thought that Curry and Porzingis are the toughest players on the Nets this season?
Without JR's fire support, the Celtics' double-teaming against Curry became even more crazy. Except for Lopez, the other four double-teamed Curry at all costs, causing Curry to double-team every time he completed this game. Offenses are struggling. In the game, he made 9 of 24 shots, 4 of 6 three-pointers, 7 of 8 free throws, 29 points, 2 rebounds and 7 assists. The data looks okay at first glance, but the efficiency value is really average.
On the Celtics side, the offensive points were concentrated, and only 3 scored in double figures, but Thomas Jr., Bradley, and Randle all scored 20+, helping the team beat the Nets 106:101 ( 32-12).
After the loss, the fans are still optimistic about the Nets. After all, the Nets have a strong ability to resist injuries. Maybe Jiang Mingliang can continue to perform magical operations?
please! Jiang Mingliang is a person, not a god! No matter how awesome he is, there is a limit!
After the game, Smith went through the MRI examination at the first time. His left ankle injury is not too serious. He will be absent for two weeks and can almost return with Aminu. Take it easy.
However, the next two months will be very difficult. Both Jiang Mingliang and Stevens are having headaches now.
. . . . . .
"Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossom" was handed over to Jiaxing, "East Palace" was placed in Hongxingwu, "Full-time Master" was in charge of Lingrui, and the three projects in Jiang Mingliang's hands were also started in time in 2015. The main roles of the three projects were quickly assigned. "Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms" is of course an artist under Jiaxing. Apart from Ouyang Mi, Reba, Huang Ying, and Zhu Xudan are all artists under Jiaxing. The original work of "Full-time Master" does not clarify who the female number one is. In the TV series, Chen Guo played by Jiang Suying has the most roles, and Song Qian plays the role of the first beauty "Su Mucheng". How should I put it? Song Qian's image didn't seem to fit her. Originally, she preferred Lin Yuner to play this role, which seemed more suitable, but Qin Zhengwei didn't expect that Jiang Mingliang, who had always been friendly to Lin Yuner, would not agree with this decision, and even made it clear Qin Zhengwei was a little surprised when he was allowed to find a "Korean artist" and finally decided on Song Qian. And Tang Rou's role was handed over to Qin Zhengwei. However, with the failure of "Signal of Heartbeat", now Qin Zhengwei dare not only look at the other party's contribution, but also ignore the other party's business ability.
Liu Lingfei was not very willing to play "East Palace". The role of Xiaofeng was finally taken by Li Xin. This is also the third good resource she has obtained from Jiang Mingliang in just over a year. Jiang Mingliang can be said to be Li Xin's life. the nobleman. The girl was also very moved, and even called Jiang Mingliang to thank him.
It seems that Jiang Mingliang will have a little affection for every woman who has been with him for a long time, especially Li Xin is still the weakest of his women. Outside of the bed, Jiang Mingliang will be a little softer towards her.
