My basketball vision is different

Channel 5, which must not be named, launched a brand new program at the beginning of this year, "NBA Frontier."

This is a program that was launched before the NBA All-Star Game. Their focus is not simply on scoring, dunking or even winning games. Although these are the main elements of the program, as an official, there are more in the program

The focus is on some corners off the court and even the personnel relationships between players.

This program just took advantage of the topicality of the All-Star Game, and successively launched "All-Star Memories" to connect the past and the next, and finally pointed out the "Stars within Stars" of the 2013 All-Stars. After the All-Star event, "Lin Shaojie" was specially launched.

Personal special!"

The show became an instant hit.

At this time, sitting in the studio were not only the hosts Yu Jia and Liu Yuxi, but also the special guest Little Giant.

"In 12 rounds, the Pacers have not lost a single game. I think other teams will definitely regard the Pacers as their biggest competitors on the road to winning the championship. I wonder what you think of this, little giant?"

The little giant with a deep voice sat in front of the camera and responded to Jia's speech.

"In fact, we have already seen from the Pacers' victory last year that they are not only a strong team in the East, they are still competitive even in the West.

Looking back, we can see that when Xiao Linzi entered the Pacers, it was like giving a boost to this strong playoff team, which led to the final championship.

So far this season, the Pacers have almost repeated their unbeaten run last season. If other teams failed to cope with the Pacers last season, then this season, they have improved their response level and still cannot defeat the Pacers.

, which explains many problems.

On the one hand, the Pacers' strength is indeed much higher. On the other hand, other teams were not well adjusted at the beginning of the season and their lineups were unreasonable.

Therefore, it is almost impossible for other teams in the East or West to defeat the Pacers. This is the most balanced offensive and defensive team I have ever seen."

"Are they better than the Lakers in the OK era?"

The Yu family took the opportunity to ask, while the little giant shook his head.

"Ten years have passed, and the rules have changed. We can't intuitively make a horizontal comparison through Guan Gong vs. Qin Qiong. What I'm talking about is that the Pacers are the most balanced team under the current rules."

"How about compared to the Spurs?"

The Yu family is still a little unwilling to give up.

"Both sides are very defensive, the Pacers are better on the outside and the Spurs are better on the inside.

In terms of offense, the Pacers are stronger on the outside and have more concentrated scoring points, while the Spurs are more average. Overall, the Spurs may be more average, but the Spurs' age is there, and the Pacers also have championship experience.

Although there is some lack of experience, the age advantage is greater, so the two sides are tied."

"Some fans sent in a curious question: Is Coach Lin currently the strongest player in the league?"

Liu Yuxi took the opportunity to ask from the side.

"From my personal experience, it must be the strongest. It is only his second season in the league, but Xiaolin has already reached 50 points five times. Last season, he had two consecutive 50-point games.

Needless to say, he had the most assists last season, and he is also far ahead in the assist list this season. Not surprisingly, Xiao Linzi will still defend the title in terms of this data.

Before Xiao Lin, the one with the strongest overall strength was definitely LeBron, and the one before that was definitely Kobe. I have dealt with them all. From my personal point of view, Xiao Lin is stronger. Of course, this may be a compatriot.

There are many factors involved. Everyone has their own preferences for radish and cabbage."

"I think Durant from the Thunder is also pretty good. He and Coach Lin are considered the two most buggy players in the NBA. Can you say that?"

Liu Yuxi's question made the little giant think for a moment before replying.

"I think there is a slight problem with this statement. Durant needs to be tall and tall, and he needs to shoot and shoot. It can be said that in terms of offense, he is the strongest player besides Xiaolin.

But according to my observation, Durant is still inferior in terms of talent. Whether it is scoring skills or pure physical talent, Durant only has the advantage of height and wingspan. Other aspects, including speed, strength and endurance, are definitely better.

Xiaolin is stronger."

"endurance?"

Liu Yuxi asked in disbelief: "Coach Lin's average playing time per game is not as much as Durant's, right?"

"This is because of the tactics of both sides!"

The little giant explained.

"Although Kobayashi's regular time this season is not much, just more than 30 minutes, which is a relatively small playing time among the core, but this is closely related to the Pacers' tactics. They are more keen to let other players enjoy the ball during the regular season.

, increase experience, for a smart player like Xiaolin, more playing time will not have much impact on the team's winning rate except increasing his personal data.

On the other hand, with Durant, the Thunder are two teams without him. Although the Pacers are also like this, the Pacers can hold on and Kobayashi has established a greater advantage, so when Kobayashi is off the court, he can withstand the opponent's offensive.

This is the advantage of a team with a balanced offense and defense.

If it is really just about endurance, last season has actually shown that even if he enters the playoffs, there is no problem with Xiao Linzi's physical strength, and his physical talent can be said to be the highest among us yellow people."

The little giant's explanation became more and more prominent for Lin. Immediately afterwards, the Yu family asked about the Lakers. After all, for most basketball program hosts, the Lakers are an obstacle that cannot be bypassed, and Kobe even more

It is the memory of many people.

"I have talked about these things with Xiaolin on the phone before. It is difficult to say when Kobe's injury will be healed. To be on the safe side, it is still the best choice to come back later. After all, the NBA is very competitive.

The current Lakers lack a soul figure like Kobe. Although Nash can replace him to a certain extent, he is not Kobe after all. The fate of the Lakers is tied to Kobe, and now, it is at Kobe's ankle.

I believe that as long as Kobe Bryant returns, he will still average 20 or 30 per game."

"Is it because he is Kobe?"

Yu Jia asked further.

"Yes, although Kobe has slipped from his position as the number one player in the league due to age and injuries, and now the crown falls on LeBron's head, all of us can see that Kobayashi is the most likely

The player who stole this crown."

"Really?"

Liu Yuxi opened her eyes wide as if hearing about it for the first time.

The little giant responded with a smile: "If the Pacers can successfully defend their title this season, then no need to think about it, LeBron will have to give up the hot seat to others.

But I think this is very difficult. There are not many teams in history that can successfully defend the title. Although the Pacers have shown impeccable form this season and their lineup is impeccable, the probability is still too low.

I also hope that Xiao Lin can do it, but it is indeed very difficult and there are too many unexpected factors."

"What are the external factors?"

The Little Giant looked at Liu Yuxi who asked the question and replied: "Injuries and the player's condition are all possible.

But the good thing is that the Pacers have ample reserves on the bench, and their rotation is very good. Even when one person is missing, they can fully consider the players' bodies and not overdo it."

The words of the little giant reminded everyone of the days when he was absent due to injury, traveling back and forth at home and abroad, and being squeezed out of his average playing time. For a big player like him, rotation seems to be a luxury.

As long as he can play, he is indispensable in almost any situation.

Looking back at Lin Shaojie's living environment, it is a bit outrageous that he has dared to play "health ball" since his rookie season, and now he has not hit the rookie wall.

What's even more rare is that, just like the budget game of the World Championships, he was not called up to play in China, and the fans also recognized it. After all, that period was a critical moment before Lin Shaojie won the championship.

If I didn’t make it to the finals as Sister Hui, wouldn’t there be a wild card?

Unless the men's basketball team is stupid and doesn't want to play anymore, is it difficult to spend some money to buy a spot?

The International Men's Basketball Team very much welcomes the Chinese team to join. If there is such a big market, the International Men's Basketball Team will not reject it.

And because of Lin Shaojie's existence, this popular player in the NBA has great appeal in the European market.

"Is it possible that Coach Lin will go to the Lakers?"

The Yu family took the opportunity to ask, and the little giant shook his head: "It is almost impossible before Kobe retires. Although Xiao Linzi's salary is not high, the second contract must be the maximum salary.

It’s not that the Lakers can’t afford it, they are a wealthy team after all, but teams that want to compete for Xiao Linzi are all over the league. The most important thing is that the Pacers will definitely not give up. They are currently one of the strongest teams competing for the championship.

One, Lakers! How should I say it?"

The little giant touched his head and finally said helplessly: "They are too messy. With Xiao Linzi's intelligence, he will definitely not go to a team that has not been able to compete for the championship. Moreover, he has stayed well with the Pacers.

Why leave? There is absolutely no such possibility.

So I think everyone should wish the Pacers well and strive to successfully defend the title. Now Xiao Linzi is our banner. He is the most influential athlete in China and the world, not limited to basketball."

...

The Pacers who won the game returned to Indiana, while the Celtics who lost the game were suffering.

With the departure of core players this season, only Rajon Rondo is left. Many local media in Boston are speculating whether they should rebuild more thoroughly and trade out Rajon Rondo.

.

Look at this game, the Pacers completely suppressed the Celtics, and Rajon Rondo could only sit on the sidelines. They need a healthy player who can work hard for the team, not such a "

Sick Yangzi!"

After learning these words, General Manager Danny Ainge was furious, his face full of anger.

"I don't know where these rubbish reports come from. The media we are close to will certainly not report these rumors. This is very harmful to the players. I think it is a waste of time. There is no need for fans to open up about this matter.

discuss."

Denied the dazzling Danny Ainge added.

"Rajan is the most important part of our rebuild. I keep emphasizing this. Now it is difficult for us to find players as talented as him. Although I have also received some calls asking about potential trades, my answer is simple.

,'Rajian is one of ours, don't think about it.'

Rajan's recovery is going very well. Of course, he will not play for a short time. We need to let him gradually adapt to the rhythm of the game. Maybe after completing all training, we can decide to let him play..."

Rajon Rondo is not the only one caught up in trade rumors.

Lin Shaojie returned to Polis City with the team. He had already seen the news from famous players, hoping that Kobe Bryant could take a salary cut and stay with the Lakers.

This is not the first time. From the perspective of Lakers fans, this is indeed a good note.

It's a pity that from the perspective of the management, such things are just lip service, and no one even talks about it. Only those celebrities who have "nothing to eat" and can only rely on their reputation to earn some "travel expenses" can

Take the opportunity to make a profit in front of the TV station.

If Rondo is "not for sale" to the Celtics, then Kobe has been "not for sale" for many years. The league has told the story of "one man, one city" for many years. It is impossible for the Lakers to be injured because of these millions of "little money"

gained his own fame.

Anyway, the mouth of a professional manager is a lie!

There is nothing in the world that is not for sale. If there is, it is because the price is not high enough.

So when he saw Larry Bird, Lin Shaojie somehow remembered these words again.

It was still early for the plane to land, so Lin Shaojie was a little surprised by the unexpected appearance of "Big Bird".

"A team wants Danny Granger!"

"who?"

Lin Shaojie could not hear clearly the noisy sounds outside the car window that had not yet been closed. There were classes at Su Zhen's school today, and it did not coincide with the time of getting off the plane. Lin Shaojie originally planned to take the bus back with his teammates.

Unexpectedly, the president, Larry Bird, would actually appear at the airport. Although "Big Bird" may look like he is relaxing on the basketball court, he is actually very busy and can't stay idle!

But after sitting in the car, Larry Bird's first words shocked Lin Shaojie!

"Danny Granger, a team wants him."

The car started slowly and left the airport, and the players following the bus looked at Larry Bird's fraud with envy.

Among the players, only Lynn was able to board that unfashionable classic car. Even Larry Bird personally came to pick him up. This sense of vanity made other players present extremely envious.

Paul George and Roy Hibbert were sitting in the car. They were also alone today.

"The boss is the boss. The president will come out to greet you. When will we get this treatment?"

"Play with peace of mind! Don't think about this all day long. If you lose your standard on the court, Lynn will definitely cause trouble for you!"

How could Paul George not be envious? He was not born with the fate of being the "second child". Recently, Linn has been "feeding balls" to him and he has become a little happy.

Although he didn't feel very good at the beginning of a few games, as the current leading scorer of the team, how could he not know how popular he is.

As for the fact that Larry Bird came to pick up Lin Shaojie, it was vanity. It was all vanity. What he was looking for was actually this little profit?

Being able to truly become the core one day is what he wants to try.

It should be a good feeling to be inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people!

...

Lin Shaojie, who was sitting in the car, did not expect that after Danny Granger was injured, there were many teams interested in the former "All-Star" player, including the Clippers, Spurs, Mavericks and even the Rockets.

Having expressed their intention, they were obviously taking the opportunity to pick up the slack.

Those are the secrets everyone in the Pacers locker room knows.

Who doesn't want an All-Star player to show off his second youth? For the current Pacers, the position of small forward has become Paul George's bag.

The Pacers no longer have room for Danny Granger to survive at this position. In other words, he can stay if he wants, but he can only be a substitute, or he can become a brick for the team as a 3D player.

Can Granger, who is in his prime, accept it?

Granger used his actions to show that he would be happy even if he was working together to move bricks for the Pacers. This is visible to everyone.

But what surprised Lin Shaojie was that before it was just an intention, this time it felt like it was serious.

As the Pacers' next opponent, the 75ers, they actually plan to buy out Granger's contract and grab the star.

You know, Granger was injured again this season, but he has the second highest salary on the team, with a salary of more than 14 million, which is not cheap.

In this contract year, the Pacers' contract renewal is risky, and the 75ers' daring to make big bets is also risky.

What's this?

Looking for wealth in danger?

The 75ers made a lot of progress in the offseason. After Iverson left, they had almost no sense of presence, and they were not attractive to star players.

After all, Nick Young went to the Lakers, Holiday went to the Pelicans... If they can get Danny Granger, the latter may become a super big name in their player pool!

But a "broker" wants to take away the core substitute player of a strong team like the Pacers, and wants to buy out his contract to help the Pacers stop their losses in time?

Larry Bird obviously wanted to seek Lin Shaojie's opinion. At the very least, judging from the injury situation, it is an optimistic estimate that he will be able to play before February next year. If the recovery is not good, it may have to be postponed.

It is precisely because of this lack that the Pacers have become a weak link at the small forward position.

The back line is rich in personnel, and there are two or three people guarding the power forward and center. It is this small forward. When Paul George is away, the only ones who want to step up are Rasu Butler or Stephenson, or even Lin Shaojie.

Go up.

It's not that easy to be a swingman, and it's not that easy to be a winger.

...

Seeing that Lin Shaojie was sent back by Larry Bird, Su Zhen wanted to invite the Pacers' "executive" to his home, but Larry Bird refused.

For Lin Shaojie, the news brought by Larry Bird undoubtedly requires him to think carefully. This year is the year when the Pacers defend their title, just like last year's Heat.

You don't have to worry about whether the bench is sufficient in the regular season, but in the playoffs, it really kills you.

Granger being injured and taking a break, and leaving the team are two different concepts.

Although the Heat lost to the Pacers in the Eastern Conference Finals, it was due to the restraint of the lineup. What if the Pacers also encounter that kind of "silly, big, black and rough" team this year? They don't play any fancy tricks, they just go head-to-head with the ball.

The team still needs some determined substitutes to take charge.

Therefore, in order to successfully defend the title, the team definitely hopes to leave no hidden dangers and make up for the shortest "plank of wood."

"What's wrong? Are you worried?"

Su Zhen found that Lin Shaojie had returned home and was sitting in his office, meditating for a long time.

"It's not a big deal, but a player might leave the team."

Lin Shaojie's words did not reassure Su Zhen. If he were an unimportant player, Lin Shaojie would not have to be like this at all. He was obviously a key person, so Lin Shaojie was a little hesitant.

Lin Shaojie didn't hide anything, he just briefly talked about the 75 people's intention towards Granger. After hearing this, Su Zhen asked: "You can ask his opinion directly. Larry Bird has already said it. Is the team interested?"

It's up to you to decide whether to keep him or not. I think the key is whether Granger wants to stay or not."

Lin Shaojie's eyes lit up as he was in the middle of the situation, and he nodded in agreement.

Danny Granger, who had already returned home from the hospital, suddenly received a call from Lin Shaojie, saying that it was convenient for him to come over.

Granger put down the phone in his hand, looked at the message from the agent in front of him, and then looked at his legs. Granger sat on the sofa in silence.

Soon, Lin Shaojie's "classic car" drove over.

Although it is a German luxury car, most of the young rich players drive some sports cars. This kind of top-notch luxury car with strong aura and comfortable ride is often the standard equipment of big bosses. It is a bit old-fashioned. Only Lin Shaojie of the Pacers drives it daily.

Most of them.

Lin Shaojie saw that Granger looked okay, but the words came to his lips, but he didn't know how to speak.

It’s asking “How is the weather lately?”

Indiana has been experiencing rain and snow from time to time lately, and the weather in Polis is really not that good.

Or ask, "Brother, how are you doing lately?"

It's not good at all. He was injured for the second time, his return date is uncertain, and he encountered such a bad thing in the contract year. Coupled with his financial situation, Granger may have wanted to die.

Lin Shaojie had no choice but to ask, so he had no choice but to show it with action. He stepped forward for a hug and listened closely to Granger's "heartfelt voice!"

"Danny, have you been hanging out with Pickle lately?"

With a glass of iced lemonade in hand, Lin Shaojie sat in front of Granger as if he were at home and made his daily routine.

The "Son of Yincheng" spread his hands: "Paojiao has been playing a lot with Roy recently. I am an injured person and can't play with him anymore. Why don't you come to see me this time?"

"I mainly want to ask about you?"

Lin Shaojie said with a smile: "The pressure of a winning streak is a bit high. It would be much better if you were here."

"What you said is a bit false!"

Granger laughed: "Brother, tell the truth. You don't look like the real you at all?"

"Okay, then I said it!"

Lin Shaojie put down the water glass in his hand: "Has any team contacted you secretly?"

Granger just said, "Spurs, Mavericks, Rockets... not just those..."

Before he finished speaking, Lin Shaojie immediately interjected: "Don't lie to me, the ones who are really interested are not the ones who are insincere."

Granger looked at the sincere eyes on the other side and nodded helplessly: "Okay, there are 75 people, and they are very interested!"

"What did you think about it?"

Lin Shaojie immediately asked: "You know Danny, as long as you want to stay, there will definitely be no problem with me. I will take care of the rest."

"Of course, you are the most responsible leader I have ever seen!"

Granger gave a thumbs up and said equally sincerely: "David (West) told me that you helped him win the contract. In the contract signed by Paojiao this year, you also gave him many opportunities to make moves.

I have seen it all, and I have never seen a more suitable boss than you, who can do a far better job than me."

Granger, who was still walking on crutches, stood up using the armrest of the sofa, took his cell phone from the coffee table beside him, and sat back down.

"I think there are some things you may not know. I have some problems with my financial situation, and this is my contract year, plus injuries..."

Helpless Granger spread his hands: "And I also know very well that if we compete head-on, I can no longer compete with Pickled Pepper. His cooperation with you is great. The buddies around me are saying that Pickled Pepper and you are a perfect match."

."

When he said this, Lin Shaojie clearly saw the helplessness in Granger's eyes.

The two have the same position, similar body shape, and similar playing styles, but one is very popular with the fans and the other is simple and unpretentious. The simple and unpretentious one is even injured. Everyone knows how to choose.

"Not only that, this is Stevenson's contract year. I know that he currently only has an income of less than one million. With his current level, although he is a substitute, if I am not here, he can take my place as a substitute.

The team's sixth man, not waiting for you or George Hill to take a break.

If the team wants to keep him, it will definitely have to bleed a lot, and my presence will probably block his financial path..."

After saying that, Granger looked at Lin Shaojie again: "Do you know what happened between me and the 75 people?"

Lin Shaojie nodded: "Larry told me today, so I want to know your opinion as soon as possible. This is very important to me."

"If the conditions are right, I will leave!"

Looking back at the scenery outside the window, Granger's words were full of reluctance: "Larry was very good to me. At least he didn't kick me out during the offseason. It's just that I didn't live up to my expectations and got injured again.

If leaving can bring something useful to the team and at the same time allow me to earn a good income, no one will stop me from doing this, right Lynn?"

The vehicle started slowly and gradually left.

Lin Shaojie stretched out his hand from the driver's seat and waved goodbye to Granger.

He also understood Granger's true thoughts. Although he didn't know the final outcome of this matter, it was generally being implemented.

In Lin Shaojie's close contact, he had clearly "seen" that Larry Bird had already "discussed" with Granger, resulting in a final result that would benefit both parties.

As president, Larry Bird has already given him this core face. Perhaps Lin Shaojie's move to come to Granger for advice today was also planned by "Big Bird"!

Although the results are not very satisfying, they have done enough to save face.

What can Lin Shaojie say?

Granger is by no means a bad person, on the contrary, he is a good guy. His departure will definitely allow the Pacers to supplement their wings.

In the East, for the Pacers, the biggest enemy is the Heat, the Heat during the Big Three era, there is nothing to say about this.

If you want to beat such a team, you must not relax inside and on the wings!

But no matter what, if it were to be implemented one day, losing Granger would definitely be unjustifiable from a rational point of view, but there is no way, this is how it is in professional basketball.

Perhaps the person Granger is complaining about the most right now is probably not anyone else, but his former younger brother - Paul George.

It can be said that he was the one who brought Pickle Pepper into the NBA.

But this season, except for the time when they were injured, the two of them rarely have private gatherings. Although it is normal for the old black man to be indifferent, Lin Shaojie knows very well that when he was injured last year, Granger and Pickled Pepper were quite good at playing. Why?

Is this what this season will look like?

Maybe this is a real player relationship, chasing the rise and killing the fall.

Maybe one day, another "second child" will come to take his place when he is injured.

Some people need to tap from time to time, otherwise they will forget about it.

But Paul George should not be such a player. He is the second-in-command that everyone highly recognizes.

The next game happened to face 75 people. Lin Shaojie wanted to test their quality. Is there anyone worthy of the Pacers taking a high look? Otherwise, he simply wants to take Granger away with money, so why can't it be other teams?
