NBA: No. 1 Forward
Chapter 274 NBA China Game
Popular recommendation:
Under Lian Dao's suppression, Cousins also restrained his temper a lot. In the subsequent confrontation, the more he came into contact with Lian Dao, the more he felt the horror of Lian Dao's strength.
At the same time, I also regretted the "bold" decision I made against Lian Dao 1V1 at that time. There is no way, he was about to be abused in the 1V1 with Lian Dao during this period of time, but one person enjoyed it, that is Tony Allen.
Cousins, as the only rookie of the Knicks, naturally cannot do without everyone's "care!"
They didn't go too far, and Lian Dao didn't allow things like bullying rookies to happen.
Of course, there are still some things for Cousins to carry bags and buy bread, and popcorn in the car is even more indispensable.
However, this is also the process that rookies have to go through, even Lian Dao back then.
This is also a locker room culture unique to the NBA.
Most of the Knicks are young people, and the atmosphere is relatively harmonious. Stoudemire, Tony Allen, Danny Green and Cousins integrated quickly.
For Danny Green, Lian Dao also proposed the 3D concept to D'Antoni, mainly allowing Danny Green to strengthen three-pointers and defense. This is also the magic weapon that Danny Green can play in history.
When Lian Dao mentioned it at this time, D'Antoni was also very interested, and the two discussed it for a long time.
The introduction of the 3D concept will also allow Danny Green to avoid some detours.
During this period of time, D'Antoni has also continuously arranged team training games and conducted many tactical drills.
From the perspective of the effect alone, it is very good, especially the cooperation between Lian Dao and Stoudemire. Lian Dao pulls most of the defense, and Stoudemire's Willie in the interior is also constantly enlarged.
In particular, the Knicks' tactical end points are now richer.
Not only that, but with the addition of Tony Allen on the outside, their outside defense can really be regarded as an impregnable wall now.
D'Antoni is also very satisfied with this. This season against the Heat, I believe it will definitely give the opponent a huge surprise.
...
The Knicks also took makeup photos during the training camp.
Lian Dao is a standard C position no matter in those photos!
After taking the makeup photos, the Knicks held the first press conference of the new season.
Because the Knicks' record last season was really dazzling, and there was Lian Dao, the new king of popularity in the league, the press conference hall this season was also full of reporters.
The Knicks also introduced the four new players, and then they left Lian Dao on stage, and the reporters finished their time.
After a whole season of tempering, Lian Dao has long been able to handle interviews with reporters.
ESPN reporters here were the first to ask questions.
"Sickle, what do you think of the current strength of the Knicks?"
Lian Dao pondered for a while and said: "We have always been a team that keeps moving forward. What we always insist on is to win the next game, especially in the summer when the team management strengthened the team. Amare The addition of Tony, Danny and DeMarcus will make this team even stronger, we will still maintain a strong offensive firepower, and at the same time we will go to a higher level on the offensive end. I can do this Say, no one wants to meet the Knicks this season!"
Lian Dao's answer was very confident.
The reporter asked: "What do you think of Chris Duhon, Larry Hughes, and Darko Milicic choosing to leave?"
Lian Dao returned: "I think we should respect the choice of each player. They are very good. They also made great contributions to the team last season. But there is an old saying in China, which is called 'There is nothing in the world that never ends. Banquet!' I respect their choices, and at the same time I wish them better future!"
Lian Dao's answer can be said to be watertight, and he is also showing more and more maturity in this respect.
The reporter continued to ask: "What is your goal for the new season?"
Lian Dao returned: "Our goal has always been to win the championship since last season,
This season is still the same! "
Lian Dao's answer to this point is also expected by the reporter. The Knicks, who still made it to the Eastern Conference finals last season, have also made reinforcements this season. It would be strange if they didn't set their goal to win the championship. .
The reporter asked: "Then do you think you can beat the Big Three of the Heat?"
Lian Dao returned: "We have never been afraid of any opponent. It was the case last season and this season is still the case. The Big Three of the Heat are very strong, but we will never be timid before a fight!"
The reporter continued to ask: "Do you think the Knicks will change in the new season?"
Lian Dao returned: "Last season, many of us were in the stage of growth and learning. Many of us had no experience in the playoffs. Even I was a rookie last season, but after a season of experience, this season we are even stronger. We have matured and made our goals clearer. We know how to deal with various difficulties. Moreover, the addition of Amare, Tony, Danny and DeMarcus will also bring great benefits to the team. Same change."
"We will pay more attention to defense, offensive and defensive conversion, and three-point shooting. At the same time, our tactics will be richer, and the internal and external cooperation will be more perfect. At the same time, we will pay more attention to the cooperation of teammates."
The interview lasted almost an hour.
This is also the longest interview that Lian Dao has participated in. In the entire league, only Kobe and James can reach Lian Dao's level of attention.
...
During the training camp, Lian Dao's busy schedule did not stop.
In particular, after this World Championships ended, Lian Dao's influence in the world skyrocketed, and many endorsements also found Lian Dao's agent team.
Then, they took on a lot of endorsements.
Lian Dao's free time is basically scheduled to be full.
From watches, ties, belts to jewellery, jewellery, airlines and more.
Lian Dao's current endorsement brands are becoming more and more high-end, and many low-end endorsements have been removed by the young sister in the screening.
With his handsome appearance, the strength of the stadium, and his future potential, Lian Dao attracted these brands.
According to Forbes' latest player worth reality, Lian Dao's annual income has reached 120 million U.S. dollars just from player contracts and brand endorsements.
This has not included the Hantang venture capital company under Liandao. If Hantang venture capital is included, Liandao's current worth will definitely start at 1 billion US dollars.
Coupled with his 10% stake in Facebook, his current net worth will probably start at $6 billion.
6 billion US dollars, this may be a height that most NBA players will never be able to achieve in their lifetime.
Of course, Facebook and Hantang Ventures have not made it public yet, and some media only know that Liantao's annual income is about 120 million US dollars.
...
In addition to off-court endorsements, Lian Dao also pays close attention to the development of Cousins, but to be honest, Lian Dao doesn't know how to teach Cousins some inside skills. After all, his inside skills are still a bottle of dissatisfaction , the half-bottle sloshing stage.
It seems that it's time to speed up the recruitment of Rasheed Wallace. To put it bluntly, he can teach Cousins inside skills. To put it bluntly, this will also help strengthen the Knicks' rotation depth.
Lian Dao actually approached D'Antoni before, and D'Antoni agreed with Lian Dao's proposal very much. Downey tried his best to satisfy the players Lian Dao needed, not to mention that he was just a veteran player. With the current Knicks The salary space has not yet touched the luxury tax boundary.
Even signing an All-Star player is no problem, let alone a middle-level contract.
And this season James Dolan also spoke, he is not afraid of paying the luxury tax, he only wants the championship!
It's just that after Woodson contacted Rasheed Wallace, this guy is on vacation in Europe, and he needs to think about it for a while, after all, he just announced his retirement three months ago.
This time the league launched the NBA China Game again, in which the Knicks have two games, respectively in BJ Wukesong Stadium and Guangzhou International Sports Performing Arts Center.
Originally, these two games were supposed to be between the Rockets and the Nets, but David Stern also knew about Lian Dao's current popularity, so he temporarily changed his mind.
The Nets were replaced by the Knicks in the preseason.
Stern intends to hype the Chinese Derby, but Yao Ming's comeback is postponed due to his injury, so the hype of the Chinese Derby may not be up.
However, whether it is the Rockets or the Knicks, their influence in China is the two largest teams in all NBA teams.
Even if it is not the Chinese Derby, it will attract the attention of domestic fans.
