I am Really an Insider

"Wayne—the next dominant star in the league after Jordan and Shaq?"

"Three consecutive championships are coming, and the Chinese dynasty is about to be established!"

"Wayne - the most dominant international player."

Looking at the news headlines on his phone, Wayne felt like dozing off.

Since winning the championship, this life has become simple and boring.

During the day, I was blown away by the media, and at night, I was blown away by Sharapova.

Can you please stop bragging and let me take a break?

Today is the day for the 12th draft pick to try out at the Trail Blazers training camp.

But this year, Wayne did not go to the arena to focus on the draft as usual. Instead, he continued to spend time with his wife and children at home.

This year's holiday is not like last year's. Last year, due to the shutdown, the holiday was very long and there was a lot of time.

But this year, because he will play in the Olympics at the end of July, Wayne will go to the national team to report and train in early July.

After doing this, it will be gone in a month and a half.

I came back in mid-August and won’t have much rest. I will start preparing for the new season in September.

Therefore, Wayne just wants to spend as much time with his family as possible.

Although it takes a lot of energy every day, at least I live a happy life.

Moreover, Wayne does not have high expectations for this year's draft.

Last summer, Wayne was so interested because he held the Clippers' first-round pick and had the opportunity to reach a high draft pick.

In the end, the hard work was indeed not in vain, and Thompson, the ankle terminator, was selected.

But this year, the Blazers only have two worthless draft picks of their own.

So this year's draft, generally speaking, is like this - you can't pick those who are good, and you can't pick those who are good.

When it comes to the 2012 draft, the most exciting ones are none other than Anthony Davis, Bradley Beal and cousin Lillard.

But these three little darlings are basically out of reach of the Blazers.

Not to mention AD, the Hornets worked hard all season to get him.

Do you know how hard they worked to display it? In order to surpass the Bobcats, the Hornets tried their best to lose.

Head coach Monty Williams couldn't sleep all night long, thinking every day about how to put those players who had the evil desire to win on the bench.

What does it mean for Carlisle to lead the team to win the championship? Leading a team to perform badly is the real test of your skills!

In the end, after a lot of effort, the Hornets achieved a record of 21 wins and 45 losses.

But even so, their dominance is still not as good as the Bobcats.

Charlotte, under the wise leadership of boss Joe, won 7 games in one season.

The Bobcats, with 7 wins and 59 losses, and the Trail Blazers, with 7 losses and 59 wins, dominated the East and West respectively.

Sure enough, the old gangster's dominance is terrifying whether he is a player or a boss.

But Boss Joe was still hasty. He forgot that the Hornets, which were originally managed by the league, were finally sold with great difficulty, allowing the league to directly gain nearly 40 million yuan in revenue.

Anyone who does business knows that one of the best ways to promote sales is to buy one, get one free.

Buy a team and get a No. 1 pick.

No, it’s buy one, get two free.

In addition to the No. 1 pick, Stern also gave New Orleans the right to host the 2014 All-Star Game.

As a result, despite a terrible record of 7 wins and 59 losses, the Bobcats only got the second pick.

The old gangster's mentality collapsed instantly. He finally encountered a draft with a standard answer, but he was still not allowed to choose this answer.

But even so, the old hooligan still believes in his draft vision.

Just watch other teams' drafts for fun, but you have to be an old hooligan to really watch the drafts.

The Hornets were delighted to pick the top pick and successfully counterattacked. The buy-one-get-two strategy was a great success.

The genius of business, David Stern.

Therefore, don't expect the Hornets to suddenly have a sudden brainstorm and trade this hard-won No. 1 pick.

Although Wayne has cheats, he does not have the aura of a protagonist who can forcibly defeat others.

On Bill's side, although Wayne felt that with the level of the old gangster, he would definitely miss it.

But the Wizards with the third pick will never suddenly have a brain and don't want Beal.

Years later, the sewer man will join him in the blockbuster "Kill Bill".

And the eldest cousin Lillard is the most imaginable.

In the original history, Lillard joined the Trail Blazers in this year's draft, starting the post-Roy era and filling the Rose City with the legend of killing before looking at the watch.

But in this history, even without the Trail Blazers, Lillard will most likely not fall below the tenth pick.

The Trail Blazers don't have the chips on hand to trade draft picks above the 10th overall pick.

So, don’t even think about it, eldest cousin.

Drummond has little use for the remaining players. Like Horford, he is a ball-blind evaluator.

Horford's statistics may not look good at first glance, but he actually plays a huge role.

Drummond is the opposite. The data looks quite explosive at first glance, but in fact it is just a blip.

Drummond can't even understand how to take advantage of the cake, and his defense is also full of loopholes. Let's leave it to the Motor City to build it up slowly.

Jeremy Lamb, the master of 2K, is an existence in the game that fucks the sky, the ground, and the ground, making players with 99 personal abilities dizzy.

But in reality it’s just so-so, it doesn’t make any difference whether you come or not.

Counting further down the line, there really aren’t many people there.

As for the second-round picks, they can pursue Dream Green and Middleton.

But even if he couldn't get it, Wayne felt there was no big loss.

Therefore, Wayne is not very concerned about this year's draft.

Why not study the postures of a happy life with Sharapova at home.

On June 29, Madison Square Garden, the 2012 NBA Draft officially began.

The first pick is undoubtedly Longmei Davis, and Wayne no longer knows which generation of Lil Wayne this is.

From Durant and Yi Jianlian in 2007 to the thick eyebrows now, Little Wayne's replacement speed is faster than Apple's replacement.

But don't tell me, the thick eyebrows may really be the most like Wayne among all the little Waynes.

But in New Orleans, he was no threat to the real Wayne.

In second place, the old gangster touched his chin and frowned.

Since Anthony Davis is the No. 1 pick, is it logical and impeccable that Davis' college teammate, McGeege, the second-best player at Kentucky last season, was the No. 2 pick?

Nothing wrong!

"Jordan" was selected, so "Pippen" must be selected as the second pick.

So, with the second pick, the Bobcats took Michael Kidd-Gilchrist.

I don’t know if the name is cool or not, but Wayne is sure that the online writers all like it.

One water can make a row of water.

Since then, the league has gained another performance artist with picturesque shots.

The Wizards took Beal with the third pick, and the previous three picks have been exactly the same as the original history.

After the fourth and fifth picks, Wayne is still very interested in the Clippers with the sixth pick.

As a result, the Clippers lived up to expectations and picked up cousin Lillard with the sixth pick.

From now on, Los Angeles' second team will consist of Lillard + Silly Fen. I don't know if they can achieve the same effect as Paoer + Silly Fen.

From this point of view, although it is a few years late, the Clippers will eventually rise.

With the last pick of the first round, the Trail Blazers finally selected Middleton, who was called the "hot man" by Boston fans, and gained a Green Kai killer.

As we all know, Middleton is an ordinary star when playing against other teams, but when playing against the Celtics, he can transform into a super giant.

Playing against the Celtics in the 2018 playoffs, Middleton averaged 24.7 points per game and shot 61% from three-point range, which was terrifying.

There is a meme on the Internet about Wayne's previous life: "Hearing Middleton's name in Boston can stop children from crying at night."

Of course, Middleton also needs several years to cultivate, and the ceiling of strength is not high at all.

But it's still good to be chosen as a reserve.

Originally, they were considering picking Middleton in the first round and Green in the second round.

But at the beginning of the second round, Green was traded away by the Warriors.

In the end, he went to the place where "we were already champions before you came here."

After Green was taken away, the Trail Blazers also lost their goals and eventually sold the draft rights to the Nets in exchange for some cash.

It should be considered a fine reserve for next season.

The 2012 NBA Draft came to an end so quietly, and Wayne only watched the news after finishing.

Wayne was a little surprised to find out that the Warriors actually traded up draft picks to acquire Dream Green.

Maybe the Warriors just need a tough forward who can carry Wayne?

But later, Wayne discovered that things were not that simple.

Not long after the draft ended, Wayne received another breaking news - the Warriors decided to fire head coach Mark Jackson, who led the team to six games with the Trail Blazers last season!

Wayne was stunned. Although the Warriors failed to win the championship last season, they were indeed the team that caused the most trouble to the Trail Blazers.

You know, even the Heat's Big Three only won one game against the Trail Blazers.

Bojanway: You can’t get through it, right?

Although Mark Jackson's offense relies heavily on Paul Howard's pick-and-roll, basically half of the offense in a game starts with Paul Howard's pick-and-roll.

But there is one thing to say: Mark Jackson has been the best coach of the Warriors in recent years.

Even better than mad scientist Nelson.

why?

To put it bluntly, Old Nelson was still playing the trick of beating the old master to death with random punches.

That warrior was passionate enough, but not calm enough. The entire team only has offense but no defense, and the offense relies too much on passion and talent. Anyone who feels good can take a swing. There is no stable system.

To be honest, such a team has a low upper limit and is destined not to be great.

In the original history, the Warriors were still better than the Mavericks. In this history, Nelson's Warriors never even made it to the playoffs.

The arrival of Mark Jackson completely changed the team culture, injected teamwork and defense into the Warriors, established the team's system, and made the Warriors a truly strong team.

Two Western Conference runner-ups in three years. Such achievements are enough to speak for themselves. Even the old Veach team is envious.

Wayne really couldn't figure out why Big Logo would fire Mark Jackson at this time.

Don't talk about Wayne, even Paul can't figure it out.

He also got the news suddenly.

But Big Logo is not just a mortal, he makes every decision carefully.

Firing Mark Jackson is just the first step in changing the Warriors.

The next day, major media outlets revealed a bunch of dirty stuff about Mark Jackson's time with the Warriors.

The most explosive one is undoubtedly that Mark Jackson has always refused to let Jerry West participate in team training!

Well, Wayne really didn't know such a thing existed before.

From this point of view, Mark Jackson is really a tough guy.

West was hired by the Warriors to be a god. If you don't let him interfere, you're not going against the boss.

If you go against your boss, will you reap the rewards?

Wayne could guess what Jackson was thinking. As a pursuing head coach, he definitely wanted to control everything by himself and not let others interfere.

In the dynamic zone, I decide my team.

Director Lu: Who are you talking about who has no pursuit?

As a general manager with a strong desire for control, West will definitely have some discussions on tactics.

Some coaches don't care, but some coaches feel that this violates their rights. The sensitive Mark Jackson is one of them.

Later, another Warriors staff member anonymously revealed: "Let me tell you this, more than 200 people on the entire team hate Mark.

He didn't get along well with the management and even with his own coaching staff.

And the players? Haha, I didn’t tell you that Paul was the only one on the team to support him. "

The authenticity of this interview is questionable, but it is true that Mark Jackson fired three assistant coaches during his three years coaching the Warriors.

To put it bluntly, Mark Jackson has abilities, but his interpersonal relationships are a mess.

You have to learn from Stephenson in this aspect. Although Finson is not very good at thinking, he is a first-class master in making Wei Ge happy.

After getting Wei Ge's favor, no matter how stupid he is, the Blazers management can't touch him.

The revelations flying all over the sky aroused everyone's interest.

It's like reading "Story Club".

Big Logo couldn't help but laugh when he saw these reports.

People today are still shallow.

The things that have been revealed so far are indeed one of the reasons why he decided to fire Jackson.

Mark Jackson doesn't have a good relationship with the entire team staff, and he's really a weirdo.

But these are not the main reasons. Big Logo even thinks that I can bear it if you don't let me participate in training.

But the key is that you have to be able to win!

So the main reason is - Mark Jackson has done his job.

Mark Jackson's mission is to turn a weak team into a strong team, inject a system and a winning culture into this team.

The goal at this stage has been achieved, and the Warriors' next goal is to transform from a strong team to a championship team!

Logo Man originally thought that Jackson could complete these two stages of goals alone, but the facts proved that he was wrong.

Jackson is not impeccable. He cannot deploy a stable rotation. The Warriors' rotation lineup has always been its weakness.

His tactical methods are also relatively lacking and lack of variables.

So now, Big Logo needs a coach who can make the Warriors play more offensive positions, break this ceiling, and make the Warriors really close to the championship!

But before that, Big Logo has more important things to do.

On July 1, the NBA summer transfer market officially opened.

On the first day, Wayne signed a five-year max-salary contract extension worth 130 million in Patterson's office. The last year was a player option, and the new contract would begin in the summer of 2013.

At the same time, the contract also contains a transaction veto right.

That is, Wayne can unilaterally stop any transactions involving himself.

Although even without this veto power, the Trail Blazers would never trade Wayne. But to show respect, I still added this one.

Some cutscenes still need to be walked.

Seeing Wayne renew his contract readily, Portland fans were all celebrating.

For at least the next five years, the league's strongest player will still be in Portland!

Wayne had just signed the contract and before he even walked out of Patterson's office, Patterson received a phone call.

After a simple answer, Patterson raised his head and smiled at Wayne: "Next season, we will have new opponents. The Lakers, 76ers and Warriors have just reached a three-party deal. Dwight Howard , I’m going to Los Angeles next season!”

After Patterson finished speaking, Wayne's phone vibrated.

He took it out from his crotch and saw that it was a text message from Nakai, who had been missing for a long time.

Speaking of which, this seems to be the first time I took the initiative to send a text message to Wayne after chatting about a round of travel.

It seems like he has come out of the shadows?

Can you not come out of the shadows? Naochi was so happy that he exploded with joy now.

"Wei thief! Next season's Western Conference Finals, if you are a brother, come and kill me!"

Look at this text message. Every line of the text reveals the nagging arrogance, self-admiration, and pride.

You're so happy. Howard and you partnering together are simply the beginning of the Lakers' tragedy.

It wasn't until James Lao also landed in Los Angeles that the Lakers recovered.

"By the way, are the details of the transaction out?" Thinking of this, Wayne felt something was wrong.

Although the result is still Howard joining the Lakers, the process is completely different.

Patterson then sent Wayne a copy of the transaction details.

The specific details of the three-party transaction are:

The Lakers produced David West, DeAndre Jordan, Sessions, who performed well last season, a second-round pick in 2015 and a first-round pick in 2017.

Enter Howard.

The Warriors produced Howard and Love, and added David West, DeAndre Jordan and Iguodala.

The 76ers, who began to believe in the process, took out Iguodala and added Love, Sessions and two draft picks from the Lakers.

At first glance, the warrior seems to be losing blood!

The historical defensive giants Howard and Love were dismantled, and Iguodala, David West and DeAndre Jordan were added?

But there is no way, there is no such thing as a forced transaction without loss.

The Lakers only brought out West Brom, DeAndre Jordan and Sessions, but they also brought in the league's No. 1 C. It's time for the old Veach thief to call this a robbery.

As for the 76ers?

Sam Hinkie: It's okay, I'll take a walk.

But then I thought about it, the Warriors got a Finals MVP and the most thoughtful person in the NBA, so it doesn’t seem like a loss~

Big Logo doesn't feel any loss. He has already broken away from the vulgar taste of comparing strengths and weaknesses by comparing paper lineups.

Although Howard is strong, he really doesn't get along with Paul. His emotions are too difficult to take care of, and he is a time bomb.

What's the use of a star whose heart is not here?

Although Love has beautiful statistics, he was fed by Paul. Not to mention the defense, the offense is basically just smoking three-pointers from the bottom corner.

The pick-and-roll between David West and Paul is a perfect match in Big Logo's opinion.

West is a power forward who can deal from the high post and is also good at face-up singles.

Although the defense is not top-notch, it is much better than Love.

Although he is not as capable of shooting three-pointers as Love, the Warriors' tactical options will still become richer.

Not to mention Jordan, a blue-collar man with no emotions is equivalent to completely turning Howard into a blue-collar man.

There is not much good to say about the job, and Paul is served comfortably and not too much trouble.

Besides, Iguodala is simply a perfect second-in-command.

He was born to be the second in command. He is one of the few players in the history of the league who wants to be the second in command rather than the boss.

There is a huge difference from a player who can only be the middle child.

Du Xiaoshuai: Who is it?

In fact, Iguodala is the main reason why Big Logo is willing to do this three-way deal. The Warriors have always lacked a strong point at the second and third positions.

Although Hamilton was introduced last season, it is obvious that the old masked man cannot be reused.

Moreover, the Warriors' reinforcements are not over yet, and he still has backup.

Next, he will also strengthen the Warriors' rotation lineup for the Trail Blazers and send this lineup to a coach who can unleash its full potential.

A more united and reasonable Warriors will definitely be able to make further progress in the new season!

Wayne thought about the Warriors' current lineup carefully and found that it was somewhat similar to the Clippers in the original history.

A blue-collar C, a power forward who can face up to the basket and have a mid-range shot, and a top point guard.

But compared to the Clippers, they have Iguodala, Paul who has never been injured, and a completely different system.

how to say?

It feels half like the Clippers and half like the Warriors before Durant left.

Looking at the joining of Iguodala and Dream Green, Wayne couldn't help but think of a question that was very popular on the Internet back then.

"If Curry is replaced by Paul, can the Peak Warriors still win the championship?"

Although the current lineup of the Warriors is still very different from the peak Warriors in the original history, it has gradually moved towards that aspect.

If Mark Jackson's successor is Cole in the end, then this lineup will definitely gradually lean towards small ball.

Can the Warriors still win the championship if Curry is replaced by Paul?

Wayne finally knows the answer.
