NBA Opening Draw To Twilight Shaquille O’Neal

Wang Zelin then scrolled down. There was no Trail Blazers deal, but there were several more exciting news.

Yahoo Sports Morning reported that the Clippers and Celtics are in trade talks: the former is interested in Kevin Garnett with Derek Jordan and Eric Bledsoe.

This news had been heard before the All-Star Game, but in the end it was not over.

Today, just as the deadline is approaching, a number of US media reporters broke the news through Twitter, taking advantage of the deal's "resurrection."

If the deal is reached, the Clippers will get rich experience and both offensive and defensive ends, more comprehensive fighting power, and will launch an official impact on the O'Brien Trophy this season.

For the Celtics, due to Rajon Rondo's accidental injury, instead of struggling to death, the team's management decided to give up this season completely, and simply sent Garnett, who was in the sunset, in exchange for two who could be hidden during the rebuilding process. important puzzle.

Not to mention how Garnett contributed to the Greens.

Everyone knows what kind of virtue An Ji, the general manager of the Green Army, is...

What is there to say?

Honest and reliable Danny Angie, loving and righteous Parkerley!

The biggest impediment to the current deal is the no-trade clause in Garnett's contract, which says the Celtics can't send Garnett elsewhere if he doesn't want to.

Well, this thing can be said to be standard for superstars.

The Clippers have to weigh the pros and cons between "winning in the moment" and "sustained development". The most important thing is that Captain Paul's contract renewal has not been done yet!

Whether it is worthwhile to gamble on Garnett, who has entered the twilight of his career, is indeed a problem worth considering.

In addition to Garnett, the most concerned is undoubtedly the Eagle King Josh Smith of the Atlanta Hawks.

Approaching the trade deadline, the Eagles management failed to send Josh Smith away after all, but this does not mean that Josh Smith can stay in the team for a long time.

According to "USA Today"'s Jeff Ziel Gter report: Josh Smith's stay with the Eagles is only temporary. After playing the rest of the season and becoming a free agent this summer, Josh Smith has a "high probability" not to renew his contract with the Eagles.

It's just that Josh Smith doesn't want to anger the local fans. Those who want to leave or stay are already aware of it.

…

At 6 pm on the 20th, the regular season was in full swing.

For some players, the real power comes after the All-Star break, such as James Harden, who just won a big contract in the offseason.

Harden, who was humiliated by the detonator, came to Houston like a dragon rising into the abyss. Not only did he perform beyond everyone's expectations, but he also showed his amazing ability to lead the team.

The Houston Mosaic is very likely to enter the playoffs this year, and Harden can't wait to stage a face-slapping moment.

The Blazers ushered in the first opponent after the All-Star Game - the Phoenix Suns.

The Suns experienced a three-game losing streak before the All-Star break, ranking 15th in the Western Conference and sitting firmly in first place.

For the Blazers, the difficulty of this game is self-evident.

The current team members are as follows:

No. 1: First Damien Lillard, Eric Maynor, Nolan Smith

No. 2: Starters Wes Matthews, Connet Lee, Sasha Pavlovich

Small Forward: Starters Nicolas Batum, Will Barton, Alexander Pavlovic

Power Forward: Starters LaMarcus Aldridge, Mike Roberts, Luke Babbitt,

Center: Starting Wang Zelin, Jared Jeffries, Joel Freeland

There are 3 people in each position and a total of 15 people, which just meets the official team personnel limit set by the NBA.

It is a pity that the two new teammates, Eric Maynor and Connet Lee, need to go to the trading center to go through the transfer procedures and are temporarily unable to play. They need to wait until the next game.

However, with the current strength of the Blazers, it should be more than enough to fight an underdog.

…

Trail Blazers away to the Suns.

The sun in the post-Nash era has completely reduced to a setting sun, and it has become a punching bag for any playoff-level team.

The Trail Blazers thought so too.

Before the game, media experts agreed that the Blazers would shoot down the Suns effortlessly on the road.

After all, the Blazers are in the All-Star Game, and the limelight was too high over the weekend.

Wang Zelin and Aldridge were both shortlisted for the All-Star Game, Lillard won the Skills Championship, and three less than the All-Star Weekend all made gains.

The Trail Blazers also won a 9-game winning streak before the All-Star Game. The team that ended their losing streak was the defending champion Miami Heat, but this did not affect the situation for the Blazers.

However, Phoenix's script was unexpected.

on the field.

Both teams have gotten the fourth quarter.

The current score is 91:95, and the Suns lead by 4 points.

In this game, the Blazers were completely blown up by the sun from the beginning of the first quarter, and trailed by 13 points at 36:23.

Before the game, no one thought this game could present such a scene.

A large part of the reason why this originally unsuspenseful game was so difficult was that the Blazers other than Wang Zelin performed too badly.

It looks like Wang Zelin's teammates haven't recovered from the All-Star weekend break.

Batum and Matthews played too much on the weekend, resulting in no touch, and the two scored 5 points in three quarters.

The second team collectively lost their voices!

Even Lillard seems to have entered a super ghost state.

The reason why the Suns lead the game is undoubtedly the biggest contributor to the team's star Goran Dragic.

12 points, 17 assists, 5 rebounds and 2 steals... 16 assists!

Wang Zelin was helpless.

Dragic's career with the most assists in a game, let him meet.

If I remember correctly, Dragic's last assists in this game was 18.

There's still one minute left, and what's worse, the ball now belongs to the Suns.

By the end of the game, Dragic's every move on the perimeter caught everyone's attention.

Tonight Dragic seems to have completely changed his personality, and his spirituality in the field of passing reminds countless Phoenix fans of Steve Nash.

"It's only four points, the Blazers still have a chance..."

Instructor Zhang got stuck halfway through his words.

On the field, I saw Dragic's three-pointer from the outside, and the score instantly became 91:98, with the Suns leading by 7 points.

"Fuck!"

Yu Jia on the side looked incredible.

To be honest, Dragic did a perfect job of organizing the team tonight, but the individual offense was very mediocre.

Previously, he shot 5 of 13 from the field, and the shooting rate was just over 30%, and the three-pointer was 0 of 3. However, at the critical moment, he had the courage to make his fourth three-pointer, and the result was still in.

"We may have to congratulate the Sun in advance. Dragic contributed the strongest battle of his career tonight, especially this three-pointer that can almost be said to kill the game!" Director Zhang said with emotion.

At this time, Wang Zelin doesn't plan to pass the ball.

Since teammates are not good enough, they can only rely on themselves.

The inside card is in a good position. Lillard handed the ball to Wang Zelin, who easily ran over the Polish Hammer and Scola and made a layup, and also caused a defensive foul.

When the whistle sounded, Wang Zelin returned a two plus one.

In this game, Wang Zelin has forgotten how many times he has been double-teamed like this.

Forcibly completing the finish under the attack of multiple people has become Wang Zelin's signature way of playing in the interior.

People can't help but think of Shaquille O'Neal from the Zhongheng League.

The difference is that one is human two plus one essence, and the other is human two plus zero essence.

"Alas, except for the King, no one on the Trail Blazers shot more than 40% today, I don't know what happened to the Trail Blazers that caused the state to plummet; but what I want to say is that the King now continues another player to stand up Help..." Yu Jia said.

Offensive and defensive conversion.

Wang Zelin worked hard in the interior to score two plus one, the Suns attacked, Scola and Dragic succeeded in a double pick-and-roll, and Dragic's wonderful pass assisted Scola for a layup succeed.

94:100.

Wang Zelin's heart finally let out a breath.

The game is at the end.

Wang Zelin tried his best to play 37 minutes, scoring 35 points, 17 rebounds and 4 blocks, but he still lost the game.

At 94:102, the Blazers lost by eight points.

After the game, Dragic, who scored 15 points, 18 assists and 5 rebounds, enjoyed the heroic treatment given by Phoenix fans.

This is no exaggeration!

For this game at least, Dragic is Phoenix's hero.

In him, Phoenix fans can be considered to see the shadow of Nash.

What about Wang Zelin?

In the end, he could only leave Phoenix City with the title of the leader of the empty chopping group.
