I’m Really Playing Basketball

Just when Chen Xiao was leading the Chinese team to advance in the World Championships, in the United States, the most exciting thing in the NBA was that the relationship between Iverson and 76ers general manager Billy King had reached a stage of complete breakdown.

76ers general manager Billy King has said that he is preparing to trade Iverson.

The conflict between Iverson and Billie King is huge, but in fact Iverson does not want to leave the 76ers.

But because Billie King had no intention of keeping Iverson, and seemed to be tired of the endless quarrels with Iverson, so although Iverson did not have such a determined intention to leave, there was no way for Billie King to give up. On the steps, Iverson can't really stay.

In this case, Iverson was pushed into a corner and had to leave.

When a super giant like Iverson is put on the trading market, it is naturally very popular.

Although Iverson is unlikely to be wanted by any team like Chen Xiao due to his playing style.

But for many teams in the league that are in urgent need of super giants to increase their commercial value, or teams that still believe that Iverson can lead the team to achieve good results, they are still very interested in Iverson.

Therefore, Iverson's trade attracted the attention of the entire NBA.

And the entire NBA feels that this summer is the time to take advantage of the 76ers and Iverson.

The Bucks and Michael Redd's relationship, which was eliminated by Black Eight, is finally over.

The Milwaukee Bucks reached a three-way deal with the Atlanta Hawks and Hornets to send away Michael Redd and Bobby Simmons, two players on the team who had issues with Ray Allen and the team.

Michael Reed, a new-generation super shooting guard who can average more than 26 points per game, was sent to the Atlanta Hawks.

Bobby Simmons, a swingman who averaged 16.7 points per game last season, made 43.5 three-pointers, and was good at offense and defense, was sent to the Hornets.

Bobby Simmons came to the Bucks last season originally wanting to play the main role.

But Terry Porter would rather let Ariza start the game than let him start.

To be fair, apart from being inferior to Ariza defensively, in what way is he not better than Ariza?

But Ariza is just like Terry Porter's biological son, giving him no chance to start.

If I had known this, I shouldn't have come to the Bucks in the first place.

Last season, his scoring average was only 7.8, which was reduced by half, which made him uncomfortable. What's even more uncomfortable is that his three-point shooting percentage was 44.7%!

In other words, it's not that his strength and state are not good, it's just that he has no chance. If he had the chance, in the environment of the Bucks last season, he even felt that he could average 20 points per game.

It has to be said that Bobby Simmons, a 26-year-old 2.01 meter swingman, does have his own reasons for being unhappy.

It's just that Terry Porter doesn't have any objections to him and prevents him from starting.

But for the Bucks, the team's starting lineup no longer needs offense, the offense has overflowed, and what is needed is defense.

There is no doubt that Ariza is a more suitable player than him. He is stronger than him in height, athletic ability, and defensive attitude.

However, no matter what, Bobby Simmons felt that he had been treated unfairly.

So after Michael Reid sprayed Ray Allen, he immediately took the opportunity to spray Terry Porter.

Bobby Simmons felt that he couldn't do it by spraying Ray Allen and throwing the blame for the season's failure on Ray Allen. He respected Ray Allen.

But for the head coach Terry Porter, he has really big opinions!

In this era, a swingman who can handle the ball, make three-pointers, and defend is still very popular.

Reid and Bobby Simmons are definitely among the most valuable players in the Bucks' trade.

So Michael Reid traded the Bucks for the 2007 Eagles' first-round pick (No. 1 protection).

And Bobby Simmons traded the Hornets' 2007 first-round pick (top five protection) for the Bucks.

After the 73-win Bucks traded two important players of the team, they basically announced that the team was disbanded in place.

In the regular season last season, when the Bucks were in great glory, to be honest, few people would have seen the future of the Bucks like this.

In just one season, it was so bright, so brilliant, and so collapsed.

For a moment, the entire NBA lamented Chen Xiao, who was far away in Japan, as the "historical team finisher".

The OK Lakers at the beginning, then the Seven-Star Nets, and now the 73-win Bucks.

All three historical teams were defeated by Chen Xiao.

Just as the Bucks were sending away the two generals, soon the 76ers' deal for Iverson was finally completed.

Billy King actually wanted to make a fuss out of Iverson's deal.

But, to be honest, Iverson's reputation with the 76ers is too high.

Billie King really has no way to throw Iverson to a garbage team that Iverson doesn't want to go to.

Even if Billy King doesn't like Iverson, he still needs to respect Iverson's opinion.

Iverson is a very special player. Those who love him will love him to the point of madness. James, Wade, Anthony, and Cannon are all diehard fans of Iverson.

However, if someone doesn't like him, he won't want Iverson even if he is sent to his team.

Most of the NBA management don't like players with Iverson's style.

Therefore, although Iverson is a big name and one of the top six defenders, there are not many teams that are very interested in him and he is also a strong team.

The Pistons count as one, and the Nuggets count as one.

These two are the only teams interested in Iverson that made the playoffs last season.

Therefore, these two teams gave Iverson a choice, and Iverson ultimately chose the Denver Nuggets.

To be honest, Anthony is still very attractive.

Anthony is still a player who looks like he has great potential.

The double gun formed with Anthony also gave Iverson hope for the future.

In fact, the team Iverson most wants to go to is the Timberwolves.

Iverson really wanted to play with Garnett.

Historically, when the 76ers gave Iverson the option, Iverson wanted to go to the Timberwolves.

Now, with Garnett becoming so famous in the NBA, Iverson is even more eager to go to the Timberwolves.

It's just that the Timberwolves' boss finally managed to get the Timberwolves' salary healthy, and then let him eat Iverson. This...

To be honest, I have been afraid of well ropes for ten years.

What's more, the Timberwolves feel that Larry Hughes has done a good job in the Timberwolves and there is no need to replace Larry Hughes with a player of the same style.

In the end, Iverson, who couldn't go to the Timberwolves, came to the Nuggets.

From coming to the 76ers in 1996 to now being traded, Iverson spent 10 years in the 76ers and won 1 MVP, N scoring champions, N steals champions, N times selected to the All-Star and the best team, in 2001 He even led the team to the finals, but unfortunately lost to OK.

In fact, even now that he has left the 76ers, he has already become a symbol of this city.

And it is a recognized symbol.

So when he left, a large number of 76ers fans went to the airport to see Iverson off, and many fans couldn't help crying.

In ten years, they will not see Iverson's stubborn back for the first time next season.

Iverson completed the trade from the 76ers to the Nuggets. Such big news shocked Chen Xiao here.

As a good friend of Chen Xiaoyi's teacher and friend, Chen Xiao immediately called Iverson to express his blessings.

And soon, as soon as Chen Xiao ended the call with Iverson, Chen Xiao's good friend Britney Anthony called in.

"Chen, we will be the protagonists of the NBA next season!"

Good guy, Xiao Tiantian is quite excited.

It can be seen that this kid is indeed very optimistic about the combination of himself and Iverson.

In fact, after Iverson's deal was completed, most people were very optimistic about the combination of Iverson and Anthony.

Iverson can shoot, Anthony can shoot, and the combination of two guns feels invincible.

Therefore, after the combination of Iverson and Anthony was formed, the media immediately crowned the title of the golden double gun.

However, Chen Ling felt that Xiao Tiantian should not have said this to him, but should have said it to Dayao next to her.

Dayao and the Heat were the defending champions last season.

"Dayao, do you think the combination of Iverson and Anthony can challenge your championship position?"

You see, Teacher Zhang understands this very well.

After Iverson's deal was completed, Mr. Zhang asked Dayao.

"The Nuggets will be a very strong opponent next season, and we will attach great importance to this team."

Dayao said he paid attention, but he couldn't see much attention on his face.

It can only be said that the championship is not so easy to win.

It is not that two stars team up to complete the team reconstruction.

If the Nuggets want to win a championship, there are still many things to do.

However, Mr. Zhang and the Chinese reporters do not have such a vision. They always simply believe that the combination of superstars and superstars is strong.

Always, Iverson traveled westward to the Nuggets and teamed up with Anthony, which really made Chinese reporters feel a great sense of crisis.

Pat Riley's five-forward Nets next season will already be stressful. Coupled with the magic of Duncan and Tracy McGrady, and now another Nuggets will come, the competition between the Heat and the Bobcats will become more difficult next season.

And just when Chinese reporters were having a headache because Iverson went to the Nuggets to team up with Anthony, in the NBA, another super super huge news came.

That is, rumors spread within the Magic team that the Magic team is preparing to trade the team's superstar, McGrady!

When the news reached Japan, the Chinese team was playing the semi-final against Greece.

The Chinese team swept Australia in the round of 16 and reached the quarterfinals. Their opponent was the German team led by Driver.

The Chinese team reached the semi-finals after easily defeating the German team 95-65 in the quarter-finals.

According to the previous prediction of the Chinese team, the opponent of the Chinese team in the semi-finals should be the French team.

The French team is stronger than the Greek team, and France has many NBA players. Although Parker has already missed the World Championships due to a finger injury, Diaw, Pietrus, Turiaf, and John Petro are all still alive.

A European team with four NBA teams is quite strong.

But no one expected that the Greek team would actually stage a Greek myth and beat the French team 73 to 56.

All we can say is that the Greek team led by Spanoulis is really strong this time!

By the way, in the semi-finals of this World Championship, the Chinese team will play Greece, Spain will play Argentina, and as for the American team...

After the U.S. team defeated Lithuania in the round of 16, they lost to Spain in the quarterfinals...

Yes, after the Dream Seven team changed coaches and replaced coach K, they still failed to break the curse of the US team for three consecutive quarters, and still failed to lead the team to the semi-finals.

The U.S. team was fifth at the 2002 World Championships.

In the 2004 Olympics, the U.S. team was sixth.

In the 2006 World Championships, the U.S. team still ranked fifth at most.

For three consecutive competitions, the US team has not reached the semi-finals.

Originally, it stands to reason that the performance of the American team would definitely cause a huge uproar in the United States.

However, I don’t know if it was the 2004 Olympics. The failure of the Dream Six team led by Larry Brown was too tragic, so American audiences are not surprised by any results achieved by the Dream Team.

As Barkley said on TNT's show: "We have now accepted the reality that the US team is not the best team, we have accepted that we are no longer eternal champions.

Congratulations to Team USA, you were successfully dragged down to heaven by the international players led by Wonder Boy! "

Yes, in the United States, after three consecutive defeats in the competition, American fans have accepted the reality that they are no longer the strongest in the world.

After the U.S. team was eliminated from the semi-finals by Spain, the biggest highlight of this World Championships is whether the Chinese team can become the first Grand Slam team in basketball history.

In the semi-finals on September 1st, the Chinese team played against the Greek team.

Historically, the Greek team defeated the American team 101-95 in the semi-finals.

In this game, the U.S. team was ruined by Spyloris. Led by Xiao Zhan and Xiao Pao's combined 6-for-0 three-pointers, the U.S. team lost to Greece.

In this game, the cannon shot 0-for-5, relying on free throws to score 3 points, but was defeated by Greece's Espanoloris and Papalokas.

There is no way, Greek point guard Papalokas is too tall!

Papalokas is a 2-meter-tall guard, the 2005 European Cup champion and MVP, and is known as "the strongest point guard outside the NBA."

Moreover, in last year's preseason, Papalokas led CSKA Moscow to defeat the Clippers, and it was a close to 20-point victory.

The Clippers are not weak now, they were a Western Conference playoff team last season.

Therefore, in history, after being continuously persecuted by Papalukas, Captain Brand bluntly said after the loss to Greece: "The reason why the US team was reversed by Greece in the World Championships is because of Papalukas!"

Therefore, it is actually not a shame for the fledgling cannon to be blown up by him.

Of course, in this time and space, Xiaopao did not meet his ‘sufferer’ in the international arena.

Therefore, this Greek team that is currently performing Greek mythology is very strong.

The defenders are very strong and the team is very high. If you can't open the three-pointer and don't have the ability to attack inside, even the American team will collapse.

If you have all of these, Greece is actually not that strong.

Spain, which has everything in history, allowed Greece to score 47 points in the World Championship final, while itself hit 12 three-pointers.

The Chinese team, like Spain, is also a team that has everything.

Three points, Chen Xiao, who has the strongest three points.

In the inside attack, Yao Ming has the strongest inside attack.

So in the semi-final against Greece, the Chinese team defeated the Greek team very easily 92-70.

In this game, Chen Xiao hit 8 three-pointers by himself.

So much so that at the end of the game, the head coach of the Greek team, Yannakis, couldn't help but shake his head when he saw Chen Xiao getting the ball.

After defeating the Greek team, the Chinese team reached the finals of the two consecutive World Championships.

The opponent of the Chinese team in the final was the Spanish team that defeated Argentina 75 to 74 in the semi-final.

Facing this old opponent of the Chinese team, Spain is very dignified from top to bottom.

In this World Championships, Chen Xiao hit at least 8 three-pointers in each game, and scored at least 40 points in each game. The NBA's average of 40 points per game was directly transplanted to the World Championships.

Chen Xiao is the leading scorer in this World Championship.

Yao Ming, who averaged 26 points per game, ranked second in the World Championships scoring list.

Good guy, the top two players on the scoring list are both players from the Chinese team.

The sum of Chen Xiao's and Yao Ming's average points per game is even higher than the average points per game of many teams in the World Championships.

In this World Championships, Chen Xiao and Yao Ming's offense is really impossible to defend!

Spanish coach Jose Vincent Hernandez felt that the Chinese team's problem should be solved by the US team.

But who would have thought that the US team would be eliminated by Spain in the quarterfinals.

Now the problem of the Chinese team falls directly on him and Spain, which is a headache.

On September 3rd, in the final of the World Championships between Spain and China, the Japanese audience on the sidelines had all turned into audiences supporting Chen Xiao.

Those viewers who booed Chen Xiao and wanted to see Chen Xiao fail are now desperate.

too strong!

The Chinese team is really too strong!

Chen Xiao and Yao Ming, the two Chinese players who make them uncomfortable, don't pull their hips every game. How can this make them fix it?

There is absolutely no way to fix it!

Therefore, even the Japanese commentary on the scene was now overwhelmed by Chen Xiao and Yao Ming.

Seeing Yao Ming hit a mid-range shot over Gasol's head during the game, the Japanese commentators on the scene shouted crazily: "This is China's giant cannon in the sky. When his giant cannon is launched from space, no one can block!"

Not to mention, the nickname "Sky Cannon" is quite vivid, and Yao Ming really has a bit of "Sky Cannon" flavor.

And Chen Xiao's nickname among Japanese commentators is a bit interesting.

“Cum! Cum! Cum again!

The ghost king’s ‘Chen Xiao’s continuous shots’ kept scoring over the heads of the Spanish players!

Chen Xiao's incredible shooting streak once again proved that he is the invincible leader of the basketball world, the Lord of the Dragon, and the Demon King of the Abyss! "

Well, Chen Xiao has many nicknames, and this nickname of Ghost Beast King made Chen Xiao very unhappy.

I don’t know whether it was because his three-pointer in this World Championship was too scary, or for other reasons, the Japanese media gave him the nickname "King of Ghosts".

However, no matter what, Chen Xiao's performance in this world championship really made many high school girls in Japan go crazy.

Just like Jackie Chan could make Japanese girls commit suicide for him, although Chen Xiao couldn't make Japanese girls commit suicide, he could make N many Japanese girls become witches and witches who devoured hundreds of millions of lives for him.

If you knew what happened to Chen Xiao at the World Championships in Japan, Ao Pang, who was deeply hurt by Japanese girls in Japan, would definitely be very envious, jealous, and hateful.

Back to business.

The game against Spain was the most difficult game the Chinese team played in this World Championships.

Spain is indeed a team with no weaknesses.

But in the end, the Chinese team defeated Spain 101-95.

In this game, Chen Xiao made 16 of 29 shots, 9 of 21 three-pointers, and 2 of 3 free throws. He scored 43 points, 7 rebounds, and 9 assists in the game.

In this game, Yao Ming made 13 of 21, 0 of 2 three-pointers, and 10 of 12 free throws. He scored 36 points, 10 rebounds, and 4 blocks in the game.

Only Chen Xiao himself knows whether Chen Xiao went all out in this game, but Yao Ming must have gone all out.

Because in this game, Yao's opponent Gasol also played very well, shooting 11 of 15 and scoring 26 points in the game.

Gasol's performance in this game was not inferior to that of Yao Ming.

Spain lost this game because of their own three-pointers.

In fact, Spain's three-pointers in this game were very good. They made 11 of 29 3-pointers. This shooting rate is acceptable.

But I can’t stand it. Chen Xiao is so good at cumming!

Chen Xiao alone made 9 of 21 three-pointers, which is almost the same as the entire Spanish team.

And don't forget, apart from Chen Xiao, the rest of the Chinese team can also shoot three-pointers. A Lian, Xiaozhu, and Wang Shipeng, roughly four of them are all 2-of-1 three-pointers, and the most surprising one is Du Feng. 3 of 4 three-pointers in a game.

The Chinese team's three-point shooting percentage in the entire game was 16 of 33!

Good guy!

Chen Xiao threw away all those difficult three-pointers, which improved the chances of his teammates. If the chances are good, the shooting rate will naturally be higher.

Therefore, in this World Championships, the Chinese team's average number of three-point field goals was 16!

This is great.

It can be said that this World Championships has accomplished its purpose of training for the 2008 Olympic Games very well.

In this World Championships, the Chinese team has found a style of play that is more suitable for them.

The goals of championship and training were all achieved.

And when the World Championships between the Chinese team and Spain ended, China, not far away, was simply celebrating.

Diamond Cup, Olympic Games, World Championships!

The Chinese men's basketball team completed its third consecutive World Series championship!

We are only two championships away from winning five consecutive women's volleyball world championships!

After the Chinese men's basketball team won the world championship and completed the first international major in the history of world basketball.

The Chinese men's basketball team has also become one of the most successful teams in the history of world men's basketball.

At the same time, the Chinese men's basketball team has become one of the most successful teams in Chinese sports after the women's volleyball team.

It can be said that in this World Championships, the Chinese team has created many, many records and historical moments for the World Championships.

In this World Championships, Chen Xiao is the most outstanding player of the Chinese team. In this World Championships, Chen Xiao, who scored at least 8 three-pointers in each game, scored at least 40 points in each game, with a maximum of 70 points and an average of 51 points per game. Data won the World Championship scoring title.

What Chen Xiao failed to accomplish in the NBA, averaging 50+ per game, he accomplished in the World Championships, but barely.

Thanks to Uncle Black Senegal.

Dayao averaged 27 points and 9 rebounds per game, Arab League averaged 12.5 points and 8 rebounds per game, and Xiaozhu and Xiaozhu both averaged 8 points per game.

In the awards ceremony after the World Championships, Chen Xiao won the MVP.

At the same time, Chen Xiao, Yao Ming, Gasol, Ginobili and Papalokas were selected to the best team.

Papalokas is the only non-NBA player on the best team, but he is the highest-paid player in Europe and truly the number one player in Europe.

In this World Championships, Chen Xiao and the Chinese team performed perfectly.

The U.S. team performed poorly, finishing fifth.

But both Chen Xiao and Yao Ming knew that if they and the Chinese team just stopped here and made no progress, then the local Olympic Games two years later would be the moment for the American team to come back and complete their revenge.

"Dayao, I understand the mentality of Americans. When the American media plays the headline 'The Dream Team Needs Heroes from Heaven!', Kobe, Tracy McGrady, Iverson, Ray Allen, Carter, and even O'Neal, they will all be willing. Come be the hero!”

"So, Dayao!"

"We are not the end yet, we are the beginning!"

Chen Xiao and Yao Ming, who were holding the championship trophy together, looked at each other and smiled. They both saw strong fighting spirit and future in each other's eyes!
