Build a Dream Dynasty

112:101, the home team is in front and the visiting team is behind. The rematch between the Nets and the Cavaliers still ended with the Nets winning. Since then, the Nets have won 14 consecutive victories, improving the team's real chances to 39 wins and 12 losses, tying the Cavaliers, and relying on the advantage of the win-loss relationship, they returned to the No. 1 position in the Eastern Conference.

When the two teams won the most games, they once came to 5 games, and after Curry came back, the improvement of the Nets was indeed too obvious. The 14-game winning streak, for the Nets in the past few seasons , basically once every season, but for the Nets fans, it feels like they can experience 1 or 2 times every season. If they are lucky, they can even win three consecutive victories of 10+.

Hard power is one aspect, direct dialogue is another aspect, and more importantly, mentality. The down dog state makes them still lack confidence when they are in the leading state, and every time the Nets win a game, the media will hype "wolf is coming", which also creates more psychological burden on the Cavaliers players. Today, the Nets have directly completed the overtake through a double play through direct dialogue, which is a huge blow to the Cavaliers players on the psychological level. How to resolve this pressure depends on the management of the Cavaliers.

There is only one game before the All-Star weekend. On the Cavaliers side, Griffin has not entered the All-Star lineup. Except for James and Irving, other players can get a vacation to adjust.

As for the Nets, five players will be able to participate in the All-Star Game this season. Curry, Leonard, George, and Porzingis will participate in the All-Star Game. In the game, Curry participated in the three-point contest and was the number one player in this New Orleans All-Star Weekend.

From the point of view of the Nets, they don’t really want so many players in the team to participate in the All-Star Game. The team’s business development has been done very well, and at this stage, the improvement ratio of winning the championship is relatively low. The X number of All-Star players on the team has more weight. However, as long as it comes, it will be safe. Although participating in the All-Star Game will affect the original vacation of the players, the intensity is not that great after all, and Curry and Leonard will also adjust themselves. After the end, it would be nice if the team had more rotations.

In the last game before the All-Star Game, the Nets challenged the Detroit Pistons away. The team chose to rotate the main center Porzingis. This is also a rare treatment for the Latvian to get a rotation without injury. Fortunately, Wood and Yi Jianlian withstood the test of Drummond in this game. Although the opponent scored a large double-double of 17+20, but throughout the game, the Pistons did not really threaten When it came to the Nets, the Big Three Curry, Leonard, and George scored 28 points, 26 points, and 24 points respectively, helping the team beat the Pistons 121:108. The winning streak increased to 15 games, creating the longest winning streak of the season. (40-12)

. . . . . .

The All-Star Weekend is a feast for players and fans, and it is also a sprint stage for the management of each team. Strong teams hope to strengthen the team lineup, and playoff teams must strive to secure their playoff spots. The marginal teams in the playoffs need to clarify the direction of the team, whether to hit the playoffs or rebuild as soon as possible. The bad teams will find ways to trade the strengths in the laggards, strive for more draft picks, and increase the team's rebuilding chips. After all, The Nets' reconstruction model is unparalleled in the world. For most teams, it is more reliable to be poor + accumulate talent. In this case, there may be many possible transactions.

However, the Nets don't think much about trading at the moment. It can even be said that unless there are really attractive players in the buyout market or the team suffers an injury, Jiang Mingliang won't even think about it. How do you think about chasing buyout players? The Nets' lineup is really strong enough.

Starting lineup: Curry, George, Leonard, Robertson, Porzingis, bench lineup: Teodosic, Van Vleet, Livingston, Caruso, Joe Johnson, Ilyasova, Yi Jianlian, West, Wood, really have covered all types of players.

Of course, it can also be said that whether it is Ilyasova or Robertson who plays a cameo, the Nets' power forward position is at the lower level in the league. However, there is no such thing as a perfect team. With such a small bargaining chip, what can be exchanged for enough weight? Jiang Mingliang doesn't like YY, and he has confidence in his team.

Jiang Mingliang chose to stand still, while West had "run out of ammunition and food", and really had no bargaining chips in his hands. All draft picks that could be traded had already been traded out, and the team's main lineup was as strong as possible. To be the strongest, the reinforcement of the bench lineup depends on the buyout market after the trade deadline. Anyway, West has nothing to do.

The same is true for the Cleveland Cavaliers. James' return to the team has greatly improved the team's competitiveness, but in order to form a lineup that can quickly pile up a fairly competitive lineup, the Cavaliers also sent Viking away. Griffin, who was exchanged for James and draft picks, Gilbert did not intend to overdraw all future draft picks to build a lineup when James only signed a 1+1 contract.

The Nets, Cavaliers, and Clippers did not move. The Bucks made personnel adjustments. The team sent JR Smith, Snell, and a first-round pick, and got Igoda from the Rockets. La and Corey Brewer.

Iguodala's performance in the Rockets this season is relatively mediocre, and his contract expires in the summer. He has already hinted that he will make a good choice in the summer, which means either a big contract or chasing the championship. The Rockets have no competition for the championship in the short term. He didn't intend to give a particularly large contract, so he had to send it away. Corey Brewer's 2-year 17 million contract is a burden for the Rockets. It is acceptable for the Rockets to package it up and give it to the Bucks, and get an extra draft pick by the way.

In this way, the Bucks' starting lineup will be updated with Paul, Iguodala, Middleton, Antetokounmpo, and Larry Sanders, and the balance of offense and defense will be further improved. Especially in the flank position, it is really terrifying.

After giving the Bucks a boost, the Rockets continued to help the Eastern Conference playoffs. The Raptors used Terrence Ross + a draft pick to rob Ibaka from the Rockets. The Thunder's medical insurance card is not as flying as it used to be after being closed, but the defensive foundation is still there, and the offensive shooting is very accurate. He is an insider who can open up space. The Raptors traded him , the lineup has obviously improved.

The 76ers, who are in the fourth position in the Eastern Conference, reached a deal with the Jazz, which is third in the Western Conference but could not go any further. The Jazz traded Favors + draft picks for Jeremy Grant of the 76ers. This deal seems to be a win-win. On the Jazz side, Favors and Gobert really take up space. Although Favors has a mid-range shot, the Jazz's offense is really still relatively crowded. Grant, the improvement is obvious. On the 76ers side, Ryan Anderson is at the power forward position. Grant's power is on top of the center and it is too easy to be deflated. It is a good choice to upgrade to Snake Favors. They are also optimistic about the absence of Gobert. , Favors can contribute stronger energy.

Objectively speaking, apart from the Bucks trading for Iguodala, Jiang Mingliang did not pay much attention to the reinforcement of the other two teams. After all, the strength of the Nets lies here. , How long the Raptors and 76ers can resist is a question. However, the next news aroused Jiang Mingliang's interest.

It is reported that the Cavaliers have fired their coach David Blatt yesterday, and the chief assistant Tyronn Lue will take over Blatt's coach.

In fact, the current record of the Cavaliers is not bad. With 40 wins and 12 losses, they are tied for the first place in the Eastern Conference with the Nets, but they only rank second because of the relationship between victory and defeat. It is rumored that being double-killed by the Nets in two rounds and not having an effective strategy against the Nets was the trigger for the Cavaliers to choose to fire Blatter. Te didn't agree, which is why the Cavaliers chose to do it during the All-Star period.

But in any case, this news deserves Jiang Mingliang's attention!
