NBA Opening Draw To Twilight Shaquille O’Neal

After winning the Asian Championships, all the members of the national team returned to their hearts and flew back to Kyoto the next day.

The whole process is very high-profile!

I informed my friends in the media in advance that when the plane landed in Kyoto, a large number of fans who had been waiting for a long time came up from the airport. Fortunately, the airport security was prepared, and a special helicopter was sent to the hotel rooftop. .

The domestic basketball fans are crazy, they never thought about this battle before the start of the Asian Championships.

I thought that with the addition of Wang Zelin, the Chinese should be able to beat Iran to regain the Asian Championship.

Who knew that the Celestial Men's Basketball Team swept all the opponents all the way in this Asian Championships and regained the Asian hegemony with an unstoppable trend.

Not only has nine wins and nine wins, but also an average of 78.5 points per game, the only one in history!

After arriving at the hotel, the Celestial Men's Basketball Team held a grand press conference, and every player got the chance to show his face.

When it comes to glory, no one gets bored, and everyone always has a confident smile on their face.

...

After finally finishing the media interview, Wang Zelin returned to his room, feeling more tired than playing nine games in the previous half month...

Well, tired and happy.

Lying on the bed in the shape of "Tai", Wang Zelin turned on his mobile phone and wandered around to see what the media and fans were saying about himself...

Cough cough, serious blowing, don't think about it.

At present, the most popular title in the country is the title of Sports Weekly News: "Inheritance of Fire and Fire: Dayao to King, a new men's basketball leader is born! 》

Seeing that the headlines of official media news have been reprinted in various forum posts, Wang Zelin felt very happy.

Blow it all! The harder you blow, the faster your fans will rise!

As for Yi Jianlian...because Wang Zelin stood in the front, he must be the one who was hammered the most. Yi Jianlian's average performance of 18+11 per game was a bit underwhelming.

However, according to relevant media reports, Yi Jianlian has already been in contact with several NBA teams. In the eyes of professional commentators such as Zhang Lili and Su Yu, the most hopeful one is the Portland Trail Blazers where Wang Zelin is located.

It can be guessed that there should be Zhou Yang's operation in it.

Sure enough, at noon the next day, Wang Zelin received a reply from Zhou Yang, knowing the plan of the top leaders of the pioneers, and finally let go of his hanging heart.

If Yi Jianlian can really be re-selected by other teams, this is actually a good thing; if he is not selected, the Portland Trail Blazers will be Yi Jianlian's next stop.

But Wang Zelin always felt that Yi Jianlian was unlikely to be selected by other teams.

Unlike Wang Zelin, who already has enough status in the NBA, Yi Jianlian, who was once the No. 6 pick in the first round, was sold twice before his rookie contract was completed in the first 10 years. .

Honestly, it hurts.

This time, some unscrupulous media are quite accurate, and they are sure that Yi Jianlian will not be able to go to the NBA.

If there are no other surprises, this is the case.

Until the Rio de Janeiro Olympic Games in 2016, Yi Jianlian got an invitation letter for a trial training of the Los Angeles Lakers with his amazing performance of 20.5 points, 6.6 rebounds, 1.4 steals and 1.2 blocks per game.

On August 23, 2016, the Lakers officially announced that they had officially signed Yi Jianlian, which made domestic fans boiling for a while.

However, there is always a time when beautiful dreams are broken.

Just two months later, the NBA's official website reported that the Los Angeles Lakers officially announced the waiver of Yi Jianlian.

So far, the door to the NBA is completely closed for Yi Jianlian.

...

In Brooklyn after four o'clock in the morning, the streets were empty and filled with a peaceful atmosphere. The cold wind hit, which instantly improved Wang Zelin's concentration.

It has been a few days since he returned to Portland, and today he wants to meet a special person, a remnant of the old times, a training madman with a personality similar to an old blacksmith in Los Angeles.

Driving the throne Hummer, Wang Zelin was full of thoughts about how James finally won the O'Brien Cup in this year's finals.

The course of history has not been affected, Junzilei still made the three-pointer, and Xiaoka still missed the free throw...

Who doesn't want to be at the top of the NBA? Wang Zelin also hopes that he can reach that height as soon as possible.

As long as he can accumulate a fan value of 100 million as soon as possible, coupled with his own hard training, Wang Zelin believes that he will definitely become the number one in the league.

The Portland Trail Blazers went to the conference finals for the first time last season, exceeding the standards of the management and the expectations of the fans.

But the Portland Juniors don't stop there.

On the Western Conference finals stage, facing the old-fashioned Spurs, they exposed too many problems, especially the game experience and detail handling at critical moments, Portland is far behind the Spurs.

And the person he wants to meet today may be able to make up for this weakness of the Blazers.

...

...

...

"My dear, you can't do it. Are you not eating or working too **** a woman's belly, your body is as soft as a dead snake."

"Stop talking nonsense, you won't be any better..."

"Dead duck has a tough mouth! It seems that you are really old."

"..."

After driving for a long time, there were fewer and fewer high-rise buildings and houses outside the car window. Until a suburb, Wang Zelin looked out and saw that there really was a gymnasium, and finally stopped the car.

I don't know who would have thought of building a gym in a place like this, but there's no denying that this is a really good place.

After walking a few steps, I came to the entrance of the training hall. The sound of the iron frame inside the arena and the sound of basketball hitting the floor came to my ears through the breeze.

The wind in the early morning is really cold!

Pushing open the door, a black man in a gray training suit was already sweaty, and his training suit was soaked with sweat.

"coming!"

"Yes, here I am!"

"Come up then!"

"???"

The above is what Wang Zelin went through before entering the arena.

When it was just dawn, the practice was finally over, and the basketball was thrown into the distance, and the two of them were sweating profusely and lying on the floor regardless of their appearance.

After a long silence, Wang Zelin opened up: "Kevin, come and help me! How about I take you to another championship?"

After speaking, he looked at the wolf king beside him with hope.

This is coming to the United States. Wang Zelin did not go back to Portland first, but rushed to Los Angeles as soon as possible, because of Garnett in front of him.

No, it should be said that Garnett took the initiative to invite him to meet Wang Zelin.

The former said that this may involve a major decision in the later years of his career.

Hearing this, how could Wang Zelin not understand what the other party meant.

From the 2012 to 2013 season, when the Celtics were eliminated by the New York Knicks with a score of 2:4 in the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs, everyone knows that the glorious moment when the Big Three of the Green Army reached the finals for two consecutive years. It has passed.

Or it should be said that the peak period of the Big Three has passed, and the rest are only three old bodies.

Sure enough, starting from late June, two of the Big Three, Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce, who once stayed in the team, were officially put on the shelves by the Celtics.

The outside world once again saw the cold blood of the general manager of the Green Army, Danny Anji.

From the perspective of the long-term development of the Celtics, Danny Ainge is undoubtedly a good general manager. After discovering that the team's potential is approaching, he decided to rebuild and even gave away the two champions.

But from the fans' point of view, especially Garnett and Pierce fans, they can't accept their beliefs, being trampled on like this.

But eggs are always nothing but stones, and the overall situation is set. The Celtics and the Nets have officially reached a deal.

The Celtics sent Garnett Pierce and Terry to Brooklyn, while the Nets sent three first-round picks in 2014, 2016 and 2018, as well as Humphries, Gerald Wallace, Reggie Evans, Tunic Singhlia and Keith Gambos are five players.

The first blockbuster deal of the summer is here!

There is no doubt that this transaction allows the Nets and the Celtics to get what they need, which can be described as a win-win deal.

But in the opinion of some experts, since the two sides broke out in a gang fight in the regular season last season, and many of the participants at that time were involved in today's transaction, it is very likely to have potential hidden dangers.

But in any case, the Celtics seem to be the more profitable side, at least the fans of the Celtics are very happy, as if it wasn't themselves who felt sorry for Garnett's trade before.

Sure enough, one side of the water and soil support the other side.

The Celtics had such a bad impression in the hearts of fans later, not just because of one Danny Ainge.

It is worth mentioning that after learning that Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce were sent to the Brooklyn Nets, the former Celtics champion coach and current Los Angeles Clippers head coach met Grievous for the first time. Transactions commented:

"I know it's going to happen sooner or later, and it means the end of an era, and that's always very sad and that's the saddest part."

Yes, when the Wolf King and the truth have left the team, when the Black Mamba can't even enter the playoffs, when...

All of this is trying to declare a fact to the outside world: the glory of the players of the previous era has passed, and the future leaders of the league will be James, Durant and others who have turned from the old generation of players to the Mesozoic, and even the new generation. Among the little guys, there are also many people who gradually emerged in the alliance and formed their own forces.

The typical representative is Wang Zelin, the best rookie last year!

But now, Wang Zelin, who is recognized as the most outstanding figure in the younger generation, fought with the old guy Garnett in the mouth of the fans from four in the morning until dawn.

As a client, Wang Zelin knows very well that there is still oil in this veteran's fuel tank, and the amount is still quite large!

There was silence again.

"OK!"

Garnett straightened his back, sat on the floor, turned his head and replied to Wang Zelin.

"Kevin, our team is better than last season..." Wang Zelin stopped halfway through.

Wait, he seems to agree.

He said yes!

"Kevin, you mean..."

"That's right, I said, I agree, I'm willing to go to Portland!" Garnett got up and walked towards the gate.

"Hey, Wang! I'm not cheap, hurry up, or I'm not sure when I'll change my mind. Brooklyn's environment is much better than Portland."

After that, Garnett disappeared completely from Wang Zelin's sight.

"Don't worry! You can't escape!"

Wang Zelin vented at the door, and the corner of his mouth still couldn't help showing a smirk.

That is the wolf king!

He remembers very clearly that in his two seasons with the Brooklyn Nets, Garnett ostensibly played a starter, but only played 20 minutes, essentially just playing time for an important rotation player.

And in this short 20 minutes, Garnett can still contribute close to 6.5+6.5 per game. After returning to the Timberwolves at the end of the 2014-15 regular season, he recovered even more and contributed to the game with an excellent efficiency of 58.1%. Averaged 7.6 points, 5.2 rebounds and 1.6 assists in just 19 minutes.

Obviously when he was in the Celtics last season, Garnett still performed brilliantly, averaging 14.8 points, 7.8 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.1 steals per game. The overall performance is not necessarily worse than the previous 4 seasons, second only to In the first year of the Green Army, he scored 18.8 points and 9.2 rebounds.

Why did the data shrink as soon as I came to the Nets?

In Wang Zelin's view, in addition to the reduction in playing time, the key point is that Garnett's spirit is gone.

Because Garnett knew that during the only time in his career, he would never have the opportunity to get involved in the O'Brien Cup, and his mentality naturally couldn't keep up with himself during the Green Army period.

When a player, when he doesn't even have the blood and passion to reach the top, he is not far away.

For old-school players like Kobe and Garnett, Wang Zelin knows all too well.

As long as there is still a trace of the dawn of the championship, they will not give up easily.

To borrow Tang Shuai's famous saying: "Never underestimate the heart of a championship!"

Portland Trail Blazers teammates championship potential and temperament?

Of course there is!

The only bad thing about them is that they are too young.

Youth is both their strength and a weakness that limits them further.

All of them were Magic Johnson's peak when he debuted. In the finals, G6 temporarily changed to center under unimaginable pressure, and at the last moment imitated Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's long-range hook shot and succeeded in making a lore, becoming an eternal classic.

In that game, Magic Johnson had 42 points, 15 rebounds, 7 assists and 3 steals.

Everyone knows the story later, Magic Johnson eventually became the only player in history to win the Finals MVP in his rookie season.

Such a script is much more exciting and magical than the protagonist in the novel.

But don't forget, behind the magician's world-famous fame, stands a 32-year-old sky hook Kareem!

As strong as Magic Johnson, it is inseparable from a Kareem, and the addition of Garnett may become an X factor for the Blazers to become better.

Wang Zelin believes that Garnett has this ability!

...

In the early morning of August 14, another NBA trade was born!

There are not many players involved in the transaction, but it can't hold a big name!

The Brooklyn Nets and the Portland Trail Blazers completed a 1-for-1 trade, and the Nets put Kevin Garnett, fresh from the Celtics, on the shelf again and traded it for Josh Mike Roberts of the Portland Trail Blazers and a 2014 first-round pick.

For this transaction, the outside world is quite surprised.

At this stage, both teams are making money.

The Nets can get rid of the third year of Garnett's existing contract, that is, the 12 million annual salary of the 2014-2015 season, which is why Garnett gave up the non-tradable clause in the contract; A young big man who averaged 8.7 points, 7.1 rebounds and 2.5 assists last season.

Josh Mike Roberts, who was born in 1987, is just 26 years old. He is in the golden age of interior players. There is still some potential to be tapped. It cannot be said that he is not qualified for an old wolf king.

Last year, the Blazers could go so far in the playoffs~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Mike Roberts on the bench fully assumed the responsibility of the bench bandit. The average data per game can be maintained at around 7+7+2, which is enough to show that he Strength.

At least it's okay to be a starter in a weak team.

After a few more years of cultivation, it's impossible to say what Mike Roberts will grow into.

The reason why the Blazers made such a choice is also easy to understand from the outside world. It is nothing more than trading the future for the present.

In the playoffs last year, he was able to average 12.7, 13.7 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 1 block and 0.8 steals per game...

The wolf king is still the same wolf king. Although he is one year older, his wolf prestige cannot be underestimated.

As for the future of the team, who doesn't know that Portland's future is the young man No. 36, and Mike Roberts' numbers won't catch up with him.

In this way, the Blazers seem to have made the right choice.

For a time, many Western powerhouses exclaimed:

Here comes the wolf!
