Build a Dream Dynasty
Chapter 744
From top to bottom, the Clippers are actively welcoming Durant's arrival, which has also increased Durant's favorability for the Clippers. At the same time, many NBA reporters broke the news that Durant's original first choice was the Brooklyn Nets, and even the two sides met many times, and finally because the Nets were unwilling to use Leonard as a bargaining chip This led to the collapse of the transaction.
For a while, social media began to criticize and ridicule Jiang Mingliang's fan group for delaying the opportunity. After all, they did not make a quick decision when the super giant showed good intentions, but were indecisive and reluctant to give up their chips. This is undoubtedly a mistake. And the opposite of darkness must be light, and there must be no shortage of arguments these days. People who support Jiang Mingliang will appear soon, and the reason for their support is simple. No one will take the initiative to dismantle a team that has won the championship twice. This season, the Nets are still the team with the strongest momentum. What's more, during the offseason, the Nets still have the opportunity to fight for Durant to join. The Nets have sufficient salary space without losing any main players. Get Durant's next.
On the surface, this news is to help the Nets appease Leonard's emotions, reflecting the team's emphasis on Leonard, but in a deeper sense, it can come up with the ultimate move. If the Nets do not come forward to clarify, it is tantamount to acquiescing to this matter. Durant will definitely feel a lot of discomfort, and if the Nets deny it, then Leonard's mind in the team will be easily affected. Of course, the Nets can also directly say that this is a girl's business, but the negotiations between the two sides are real and will definitely leave traces. The means of the media are much more powerful than many people imagine. , things are even more difficult to end.
In this way, it was obvious to the person who released the news that West's countermeasure was obviously trying to provoke the relationship between the Nets and Durant, and forced the Nets to suffer from this dumb loss.
After completing the transactions of Fernandez and Durant successively, the Clippers, whose strength has improved significantly, have temporarily died down. Jerry West's mind is more focused on finding better substitute players. The Thunder urgently need to clean up the team's interior. Griffin, Ibaka, Kanter, Motiejunas, and Olynyk have to trade at least one of the five insiders with starting standards, otherwise they will definitely have conflicts if they stay in the team.
After 2014, Ibaka, who had been in serious decline, became a trade target for the Thunder to put on the shelf. He lost his ability to shake things up inside. He has strengthened his shooting ability and increased his weight appropriately to improve his top defense ability. However, when Griffin must occupy a main position, he will inevitably be cleaned up.
In 2013, I signed a 4-year 48 million contract. Ibaka's strength is still relatively valuable for this contract. There are still one and a half years left in the contract. Therefore, many teams are very interested in getting Ibaka in the trade. enthusiasm.
High-quality inside players will never be short of next players. The Trail Blazers, Raptors, Bucks, Timberwolves, and Nuggets are all interested in trading for Ibaka.
The Bucks pushed Antetokounmpo to the power forward position this season, and gave Antetokounmpo the right ball, allowing Antetokounmpo to play better on the offensive end. The running-in between him and Paul has also become a little more harmonious, and the team's performance has been stable at the third place in the Eastern Conference. In this case, the team is actively pursuing Ibaka, does it still have the idea of moving Antetokounmpo? Jiang Mingliang is paying close attention to this deal. If the Bucks are really willing to send Antetokounmpo, the Nets are willing to come out as a third party. Except for Curry, Leonard, Porzingis and the Knicks' draft picks, others can be used as chips.
However, the first reaction of the Bucks was to push Ibaka to the center position. They still attached great importance to Antetokounmpo and did not give the Nets a chance to fish in troubled waters. For Jiang Mingliang, this goal can only be I have paid attention to it for a long time.
In the end, it was the Rockets who got Ibaka. The Rockets sent Ariza and this season's first-round pick, which improved the team's inside advantage. And the team has Iguodala and TJ Warren on the wing position, and the loss of letting Ariza go is not great.
Although he earned another draft pick, Durant and Ibaka were relegated to Griffin and Ariza. The greatly reduced Thunder team also made the team and the Nets lose some hope in this season's Christmas game. point.
After the hustle and bustle, the Nets ushered in the Mavericks, whose lineup has changed a lot this season. The Mavericks lost two starters, Marion and Monta Ellis, in the offseason and were replaced by Aminu and Matthews. The team's offensive firepower has declined a bit, but the balance of the lineup has improved. The Nets will definitely not play well in this game.
Matthews left the Trail Blazers this season. On the one hand, he realized that the team’s disintegration was inevitable. At the same time, the young player Pope aimed at the main position for a long time, and the team management also needed to give way. As a 3D player, he wants more autonomy on the offensive end. However, after the start of the game, Matthews took on more roles on the offensive end, and the result was a decrease in efficiency. Facts have proved that Matthews still plays a role. A purely 3D player is more suitable for him.
One of the advantages of the player Matthews is that he is very self-aware. When he determined that playing a 3D player is more suitable for him, he immediately returned to this position. Ever since, his efficiency has slowly increased recently. What follows is that the Mavericks' record is also going up, and they have returned to the top six in the Western Conference.
The relationship between the Nets and the Mavericks is good. If one of them encounters trouble at the end of the season, it is not impossible for Jiang Mingliang's character to do something about it. But now it is the middle of the season and the team is confident It is full of impact on the winning streak, and it will definitely not let the water go. The Mavericks are in the West where the pressure of competition is extremely high. The ball is given to JR Smith and the game officially begins.
JR dribbled the ball to the three-point line, Porzingis blocked Matthews, JR rushed to the left, Valanciunas switched defenses, Porzingis made an air cut, JR passed the ball to the middle in time, Porzingis Matthews squeezed away Matthews and made an empty cut with the ball.
Nowitzki retreated to the basket to block Porzingis' path. Porzingis did not pass Green on the right, but leaned on Nowitzki with his back, turned to the left and shot, his footsteps It was very smooth, but the ball bounced out of the frame, and Nowitzki immediately protected the rebound.
Porzingis has excellent physical talent and good technical skills, but sometimes the details of handling the ball are a bit average, and it is prone to situations where the ball cannot be hit by chance. These need to be gradually improved. Be it Jiang Mingliang or Stevens, the expectations for him are very high.
Bledsoe dribbled the ball to the frontcourt and waited for his teammates to pull away. He didn't look for cover and went straight to the singles. He changed his mind to break through to the right, and faced Curry with a sudden stop for a jumper, which interfered with the ball and bounced out of the frame.
Nowitzki's aging is becoming more and more obvious. The team's top scorer Ellis has left Indiana. Bledsoe is taking on more and more roles on the offensive end, but his performance on the offensive end is really not too great. Reliable, many offensive options are confusing. The Nets traded him to the Mavericks, which must have helped the Mavericks at the time, but the Mavericks were threatened by him, and signing a five-year 80 million maximum salary contract was a bit of a tragedy.
Green grabbed the rebound, handed it to Curry, and slowly brought it to the frontcourt. He played a pick-and-roll with Porzingis in the center and went to the right. The Mavericks' defense was man-to-man, and Nowitzki switched defenses in a timely manner. Curry did not choose to play hard, but distributed the ball to the middle, and Porzingis cut the ball.
Bledsoe chose to chase Curry, and Nowitzki had no time to retreat. This time, Valanciunas went to the basket to make up the defense, forming a partial pincer attack. Porzingis chose to pass the ball to Green who was outside. Green made a jumper for a three-pointer, but the accuracy was not good enough, and the ball bounced out of the frame.
Porzingis jumped up when he saw the opportunity, and pushed the ball out of the penalty area with one hand. Green grabbed the ball with lightning speed and gave it to Curry who responded from the outside. After the second organization, Curry made a three-pointer Received the ball two steps away from the line, reached out to signal his teammates to organize slowly, and then fired directly before Bledsoe could react!
3:0! Curry's goal was very beautiful, and he also started to twist his shoulders when he got up!
The Mavericks attacked, Nowitzki pulled out to cover, Griffin quickly switched defenses, kept a distance to interfere, and Curry chased from behind. Bledsoe chose to force Griffin, hit the basket, and Porzingis defended again.
Bledsoe still didn't pass, picked the basket in the gap, avoided Borginis' block, and the ball bounced out of the frame. Fortunately, the tall and long-armed Aminu grabbed the offensive rebound, but before he could hold it firmly, Leonard snatched the ball abruptly in a sea of fishing, and then launched a fast break.
The big screen at the scene began to replay Leonard's steal just now, and then there was applause in the audience. It is rare to see such a smooth and beautiful steal. Leonard has really evolved defense into an art.
Leonard easily pushed the ball up against the defense, and the Nets took a 5:0 lead at the beginning.
Bledsoe, who made consecutive mistakes on the offensive end, was much more honest on the offensive end in the next round. Nowitzki singled out Green on the right side, and the iconic golden rooster independent shot hit the Mavericks' first goal. 5 to 2.
It is not a glorious thing for the Mavericks to expect this kind of veteran to save the team and support the team's offense.
