NBA: Start with 2 billion, buy the Knicks
Chapter 272: The Big Three of the Heat are established! The alliance has changed drastically
Chapter 272: The Heat’s Big Three are established! The alliance changes drastically!!!
Jazz owner, head coach Sloan and others were originally watching the Knicks joke, but in the end they all received calls from people below.
The same goes for Cuban. When he was still thinking about poaching Turk Drew next season, Carlisle called directly at 9:30.
"Boss, watch TV quickly!"
…
At 9 p.m. New York time, on ESPN Live Radio, a live broadcast happened that could affect the future pattern of the NBA.
But when it was Jiang Chao's turn to watch, it was already recorded, because his Super God Forum had already popped up a message.
You must know that for the sake of user experience, Super God Forum rarely displays pop-up messages.
According to ESPN reports, LeBron James announced on ESPN and its affiliated radio stations at 21:00 local time in the United States that he will join the Miami Heat and join forces with Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh!
On TV, James was wearing a purple plaid shirt and sitting on a chair with a calm look on his face. Jiang Chao couldn't help but sigh that he was still young. This scene must be too familiar.
It's like a world away.
After a quiet but dramatic few weeks, the two-time MVP finally announced his whereabouts after the World Championships. He will choose to join the Heat!!
It will still be a commercial operation, and it happens to be the calmest time of the grass growing period.
Here comes a big bomb!
03The platinum generation gathers in Miami!
This also means that he will say goodbye to the Cleveland Cavaliers after seven years of service.
The little emperor said this: "The reason why I made this choice is because this is the best chance to win now and in the future. Winning is the most important thing to me."
This signing is undoubtedly a major victory for the Heat. The team also managed to combine Wade and Bosh.
This time "coming back" means that the Heat will form a rare giant three in history, which will also greatly affect the league's situation in the next few years.
According to James, none of the three has determined the final contract figure, but they are all willing to make a little less money for this cooperation.
Pat Riley!!
"Jiang Chao, you still dare to say that he is not awesome?"
ESPN’s Knicks fan Yang Yi from the United States went crazy during the commentary.
"I dare not say that joining this franchise has always been in my plan. After all, I have never imagined this possibility before," James said.
"But the Heat did it. They cleared their salary space and had the ability to put us on the same team. This is difficult to refuse. Wade and Bosh are both the best players and have few opponents in the league."
Talking about leaving his hometown of Ohio, James admitted that the fans must be a little emotional, and said emotionally, "Akron will always be my home."
Wade's response after watching this show was very simple: "The future will definitely be very crazy."
Crazy? I believe this is the feeling shared by everyone who cares about the NBA.
Veteran coach Rick Pitino said this: "When I witnessed this scene, I had to force myself to believe that it really happened."
Angie looked at the picture of Riley on the TV fiercely. Is this because after the Celtics formed a super powerful team, the Heat formed a more luxurious super battleship to fight???
"After losing to the Kaiser in the Eastern Conference Finals, James planned to leave the city where he had stayed for 7 years and join forces with the Heat to form three giants!"
This is a post that Jiang Chao asked Su Qun to post on the Super God Forum half a month ago as a matter of fun. Now it has gone viral.
This ID: jc2022, who only posted one post, has also become a mysterious figure in the hearts of fans. He is so powerful, can you guess this??
Although I haven’t guessed who the other Big Three are, I can at least guess that James is going to the Heat!
You must know that many teams were ambiguous with James before this.
So the number of views instantly went from a few thousand to hundreds of thousands!!
It has been predicted since ancient times that people will come to worship the emperor!
"Hiss, what is supposed to come has come."
Jiang Chao was spinning his pen on the sofa in the villa, and then opened the comment area. This is the most exciting part.
Swifty from the villa next door came over wearing vacuum pajamas and slippers dragging her beautiful legs:
"Boss Jiang Chao, aren't you afraid?"
"What am I afraid of?" Jiang Chao motioned for her to sit down and watch the fun together.
Ji Ling naturally fell into Jiang Chao's arms: "The arms race in the East is like this now, and only the Knicks are weak."
Lily Collins, who was watching the big-screen TV downstairs on the second floor, raised her glass of red wine in dissatisfaction:
"No way, the Knicks will be strengthened if Yao Ming comes back next year."
Jiang Chao motioned to Snow White upstairs to come down:
"Actually, I want to say that I was just waiting for his betrayal when I was waiting. Do you believe it?"
Swifty:
"You are really big-hearted!"
"Did you expect Gallinelli to leave?"
"No, I thought David Lee would be poached."
In fact, in his previous life, Brother Li was poached to assist Curry, but maybe because the Warriors no longer have Curry, Wright has no interest in countering the Knicks' players.
"Hey, you have a really big heart."
"Not as big as you."
Jiang Chao placed one hand on Swift's air mattress to relax while looking at the comments on this matter.
In his previous life, the little emperor who only wanted to ascend to the throne broadcast the entire process of his "decision" live on ESPN, and finally chose the Miami Heat.
His actions and decisions have attracted many people to criticize and even make fun of him.
After all, this is the first time a player has done this, making his transfer look like a movie premiere.
Cavaliers fans posted a video of burning James' Cavaliers jersey on Twitter that night. Jiang Chao's advice was not to burn it. Maybe he will come back in the future?
"Trash mousse!! Spread your hands, LeBron James!"
"Just leave if you don't have the ability??? Are you worthy of your hometown fans???"
"Yeah, you tricked the knight like this and then left??"
"Climb the orangutan!"
"Have you teamed up for the championship?"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, Wade, I didn't expect you to be such a person."
Raptors fans: "The Dragon King won't wait for me DeRozan?? Rubbish!!"
Durant was teasing the Knicks on the trumpet just a second ago because they were too young, and it was still the Thunder's time for Youth Storm to be authentic.
I was stunned for the next second.
Damn it?
Doesn't this require a wave of heat? The league must not be allowed to realize this deal!
But the next news is that James spent 50 million to buy a mansion in Miami, everything is certain!!!
"Damn...how can you do this? How can you do this?"
The trumpet madly output comments: "Can you train some rookies by yourself and find your own problems?? Look at the Thunder, they are all trained by people themselves. Can you just pick up the peaches that fall off the ground??"
He was really angry. The Thunder's recruitment of Gallinelli and Harrington was a normal transaction.
But you put three players in the top 10 in MVP rankings last season into one team?
Is this a joke???
James is still MVP!
Famous reporter M Shen broke the news:
"Joining the Miami Heat allowed "Little Emperor" James to obtain a top-level contract worth $110 million. Although the salary was reduced, it was more Wade and Bosh who made concessions.
And he also revealed that before James even started receiving salary from the Heat, he had already "advanced" about 2 years' salary to buy a staggeringly luxurious mansion in Miami with a beach and a pier.
It is reported that the total price of the new "Palace" is as high as 49.5 million US dollars...
This means that I will definitely stay with the Heat for a few years!!
Covering an area of 3,300 square meters, the house has a recording studio, two bowling lanes, a casino, a 19-meter-long and 8-meter-wide cinema, a gym, an aquarium and a beauty salon.
As for the little emperor's "bedroom", there is not only a dining room with an area of about 68 square meters, but also a double-layered giant cloakroom with an area of 250 square meters.
In addition, there are 6 garages in this mansion alone!!!
It is reported that the James couple finalized the purchase agreement with the seller.
According to the sky-high price that Potakin had previously offered at US$49.5 million, the price the little emperor paid for this mansion would not be lower than this figure.
Since you can only buy one house in the United States according to regulations, the little emperor's "second house" not only cannot enjoy any preferential policies, but also has to pay various taxes.
Some media calculated that the annual taxes on this mansion alone are as high as 1 million U.S. dollars, and in order to maintain the normal operation of the mansion, the little emperor has to pay up to 150,000 U.S. dollars in property management fees every year.
According to reporter M Shen, James lives more luxuriously than most NBA owners.
As expected of a little emperor, his face-saving work is not bad.
In fact, Wade's mansion has been scolded for a long time. When the Miami village was short of water, Wade's villa used 150 tons of water in a month. People from environmental protection organizations in the United States almost scolded them to death.
Dragon King Bosh directly sent a roaring expression:
"Back to basketball, here we come!"
Being ridiculed directly: "Happy!"
"Pug."
"You go when James tells you to go?"
"Dragon King? No! Pig Head!"
"The Heat can no longer be regarded as a benevolent and righteous army, they will be defeated!! I said so!"
With Cleveland and Toronto fans yelling and Miami fans boiling.
After the live broadcast, the little prince posted a very "exciting" content under the cursed topic:
"Don't think I'm going to forget everyone who attacked me this summer. I mean everyone! (don't think for one)
min that i haven't been taking mental
Notes of everyone taking shots at
me this summer. and i mean everyone!)”
*(Note: This sentence is the original sentence from that year, not edited by the author~)
Obviously, James is not indifferent to the attacks on him from the outside world, he just didn't want to respond before.
But it turned out to be too exaggerated...
Cleveland fans burned his jersey, the city of Cleveland took down a huge advertisement with his portrait, and owner Dan Gilbert wrote an open letter scolding him...
Michael Jordan also criticized his inappropriate choice. Charles Barkley said that when he was young, he would never form the Big Three like him...
Kobe snorted directly in the Nike store without any response, showing his contemptuous attitude.
Various experts said that he cannot be compared with Kobe Bryant. Even the little-known Anthony Tolliver made a short video imitating James announcing his "decision" to join the Minnesota Timberwolves. This video
The video is very popular on YouTube video website.
Although fans don't know why James roared with the meaning of "revenge" at this time.
But judging from the fan reactions on Twitter, many fans don't buy James' account. Who is worried that you can't beat him to death?
War for the Planet of the Apes: “If James is the king, then Kobe is the god.”
Cleveland Pride: "Come back to Cleveland, man..."
A Neon netizen named "Sister-in-law is so beautiful" even directly abused James, saying: "Loser, get out..."
A fan whose ID is "Kobe's fadeaway jumper" teased James: "James, are you Senator James, Regent James, or Chancellor James? Anyway, you are not the king."
Of course, there are many fans who support James.
Our Emperor ascends the throne: "Why does everyone hate James?"
The legendary LeBron: "Build morale in your own territory, brother. Nothing can stop your rise. Your enemies will become stepping stones to your progress."
There is only one No. 23 in the world: "I hope you win in Miami, man."
Another fan named "23-24" encouraged James, saying: "It's time to dunk on their butts!"
Wonderful!
Jiang Chao and others watched with gusto in the villa. They lamented that James was spending money like water. At the same time, Jiang Chao felt that he was too stingy.
Why don't he go to Hawaii and buy an island for his assets? He can't let the little emperor cover them up, okay? A fan below commented that boss Jiang Chao still lives in a small apartment...
"The excitement continues! The flying pigs are really good at spraying!" In the super chat group, the three guards Curry, Harden, and Mills started chatting directly as private chats.
"Speaking of which, boss, have you ever asked David Stern? Is this kind of deal actually possible?"
Jiang Chao replied: "What are you asking about? The process is reasonable, the space is sufficient, the boss is willing to pay luxury tax, and there are no violations so there is no need to ask."
Ibaka: "Tsk, tsk, tsk, then their role players are probably scraps."
"Not necessarily, James is attractive, and maybe someone like O'Neal will join with a minimum salary." Kyle Anderson also carefully added to the analysis.
"Yes, among the Big Three, who doesn't want to vote? Just join a team with the veterans who want to win the championship."
"Would O'Neal regret stealing a lot, hahahahaha."
"Garnett probably regrets it."
"Not to mention, we Knicks people are really smart."
Jiang Chao was quite surprised after seeing their speeches. They were indeed the people he chose. Their IQs were quite good.
And he personally experienced what can be said to be the biggest transfer craze in the history of the NBA, and it was obviously much more exciting than watching the excitement.
After James made this comment in response, ESPN commentator Barkley didn't care at all.
He has not stopped criticizing James after his live broadcast. After James posted this tweet, Barkley was completely unfazed.
"You loser, then you have to remember me!"
And it was even more exaggerated the next day.
When the Heat held a meeting for the Big Three, Barkley also had full traffic and broadcast their meeting live on TV.
After announcing that he was joining the Heat, James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh wore Heat jerseys together for the first time for a meet-and-greet at the American Airlines Center.
The three of them appeared under the spotlight, Bosh roared again with his signature roar, and the fans at the American Airlines Center were elated.
Buckley called the meeting "dancing on a stage" and said it was "cowardly behavior."
When Van Gundy Jr. asked if the word "wimp" was not used appropriately, Barkley's reaction was even more surprising.
"I really shouldn't have used that word." Barkley's first words made people think he would start to apologize, but his next words surprised everyone.
"I should use bullshit, bullshit is a better word."
Barkley said James' current actions will only worsen the damage to his public image this summer.
In addition, Barkley also repeatedly reiterated that he believed that the process of James leaving Cleveland was handled very poorly. He did not inform the team at all, and the team did not know his final decision until he appeared on the TV show.
"This is the behavior of businessmen, not players."
However, Barkley did not really criticize James' move to join Miami. Barkley just said that if he were James, he would definitely not do it.
"What the hell, I want to say this too." Jiang Chao told the truth. He didn't have the guts to say this, so he just said it behind his back. Unless you are a black man like Bartley in North America, you are criticizing LeBron like this.
Famous guests...
While watching Wade welcome James, Barkley said: "He is a two-time MVP. He should not leave this city. Players should come to him.
If I were him, I wouldn't go anywhere else. Someone would come to me.
No matter how you explain it, he always went to Dwyane Wade's team.
I don't have any problem with him leaving Cleveland, but he could have had another effect.
That live broadcast was ridiculous, this dance performance was ridiculous. James could have said to the people of Cleveland, 'I appreciate everything you do, but now I have to go play in Miami.'"
"He said he remembered his attackers. Oh, I was really afraid he was thinking about me."
"He feels like he can't be criticized at all, but everyone who plays can be criticized.
I once played against Michael Joe.
Before Jordan won the championship, there were a lot of people who said he couldn't win. I'm really uncomfortable with that idea, the idea that you feel like you can't be criticized at all."
Then the host asked him a question: Will James go to the Heat to win the championship to solve all problems?
In fact, everyone knows the reason. Isn't it because he wants to get a championship ring? James has been in the Cavaliers for 7 years and has been so close to the championship every time. He must not be reconciled.
"He has to win several championships, at least two."
Buckley said directly: "If not, his historical status will be degraded."
What if James doesn't win a championship?
Barkley returned: "There's going to be a very serious downgrade in his place in history."
But criticism is criticism. After so many complaints about James' actions this summer, Barkley still said that he believes James is still the best player in the NBA.
Barkley said: "I like him, I respect him, I have always said he is the best player. Kobe Bryant has Lamar Odom, Andrew Bynum and Pau Gasol to help him.
If LeBron has these helpers, he can win. LeBron and I have no personal conflicts."
This is what I said to Jamie. I am only evaluating this behavior, not this person, and it has nothing to do with basketball.
This is the top level of ridicule, implying that James' character is not good?
Sean Marks and others are discussing: "Barkley is going to enter the Hall of Fame this year. I wonder if he will ridicule him in his Hall of Fame speech. I look forward to it."
"Rodman also started to spray."
Not long after Barkley started spraying, the big bug with more honors also started spraying:
Fox Sports: "Rodman: James doesn't deserve to be compared to Pippen!"
The topic originated when fans started laughing at the fact that the little emperor was a 'second in command', only assigned to Wade as his deputy.
MVP second-in-command, so James is the strongest second-in-command in history?
Rodman, who is coaching the North Korean men's basketball team in North Korea, keeps saying something shocking: Is James worthy of competing with Pippen?
"Big Bug" Dennis Rodman, one of the important members of the former Bulls dynasty, the most controversial player in NBA history, said in an interview with the media today: Never compare James and Pippen, because LeBron is not worthy at all.
Comparable to Scotty.
Rodman defended his teammates at the time, saying, "Scottie is a model for all all-around players. What can I say? Scottie is so great."
"At that time, Scotty was in charge of support, Michael was like our big brother, and as for me, I was like the black sheep of the family."
Rodman recalled with a smile, "I continued to do the things I was used to, but we were very united from top to bottom. Scottie was the core of that Bulls team, and he gave all of us the necessary support."
Rodman's words are undoubtedly a huge blow to James, and it is equivalent to another basketball star standing up to criticize James' behavior.
And now, Rodman believes that James is not worthy of being compared with a second-best player like Pippen, which is even more despicable than Barkley's verbal attack.
But don't be unconvinced by James, because Rodman is more qualified to criticize him than Barkley.
If he sprays you, you can only hold it in!
Rodman is not a player who won championship rings by hugging Jordan's thigh. Before joining the Bulls, Rodman had already won two championship rings with the Pistons.
At the same time, he was selected to the league's first defensive team seven times, the league's best defensive player twice, and was selected to the All-Star twice. From 1992 to 1998, he became the league's rebounding leader seven times in a row.
With such outstanding achievements, it is no wonder that Rodman also expressed his desire when talking about Pippen being inducted into the Hall of Fame.
"It ultimately depends on other people. I don't know if they will open the door to me or how they will view some of my actions off the court."
Rodman said when talking about his prospect of being elected to the Hall of Fame, "But look at history, in the baseball league, are there not many star players who take drugs and drink alcohol? Tell me, how does this count? I think, the public
I am a little nervous, which is partly because I am a person who loves to express myself."
Rodman actually wanted to use this topic to get into the Hall of Fame.
The latter few are the ones who are truly qualified to speak.
Bobcats owner Jordan:
"This is not a wise choice. It is better to come to my team and start over."
Magic Johnson:
"Oh, this is too sad. It makes the NBA lose suspense. Wade and Bosh are not rookies. The actions of Riley and James will bring the league to the end."
Jiang Chao also discovered that except for Kobe Bryant, active players rarely speak out.
Part of it is because they are afraid of offending the Heat and getting beaten up next season. Everyone knows how exaggerated it is for superstars to play a game with all their strength, and part of them just wants to... join!
Zhan has gravity!
For example, Rockets veteran Dampier.
Although the Rockets offered a higher price, 35-year-old veteran center Dampier still preferred to join the Heat in order to wear a championship diamond ring in his career.
Free agent Dampier came to Miami for a tryout and met with Heat president Riley and coach Spoelstra.
The other party offered the veteran a veteran minimum contract of US$1.4 million a year.
There are many famous stars who have become free agents or may become free agents this summer, and some of them just lack a championship.
This includes Allen Iverson, Tracy McGrady, and Vince Carter. They are all players who are willing to accept the veteran's minimum salary and fight for the championship.
Of course, there are also some people who have rarely been mentioned before, such as Michael Redd of the Bucks.
Reed will be a very good choice for the Heat. He will be interested in Miami, and the Heat are also interested in his experience and shooting ability.
In the U.S. national team (Dream 8), Reid has already established some connections with the Heat's Big Three and is adaptable to this style of play. His prospects in the Bucks are already very bleak, and his position as the boss is no longer guaranteed. It is better to change to another club.
A shot at the championship.
Every time this kind of news comes out, the Knicks will be scolded.
Because these players look at Yabei, whom Knicks fans are jealous of, because they are all masters who have proven themselves in the playoffs.
Why do the Knicks need so much money and so much space?
James only made 20 million in his first season, which is not as much as Kobe and Nowitzki. Why don’t you take it????
What the fuck is the management doing???
Every off-season is unsatisfactory!
Even the Knicks veterans came out to criticize James and said that Jiang Chao and Sean Marks really missed the opportunity.
"Hoop World" reported that Knicks veteran Walter Frazier talked about LeBron James and said that if it were him, he would not choose to embrace the Heat for the championship like James did.
The summer break is coming to an end. Basketball expert Luke Bynes got the opportunity to interview the two-time championship Hall of Fame player Frazier. The top 50 superstar talked about the future of James, the Heat, the Knicks and this year's super free agents.
market.
Frazier said that the Knicks had worked hard for a long time this summer, and like the Heat, they also made huge salary space, but the final result disappointed him.
Compared to the Heat who acquired James and Chris Bosh, the Knicks could have acquired one of them, but lost Gallinari instead.
"It's shocking," Frazier said.
"This is what I think. Our Yao has already played in team training games, so James should consider us in New York.
He should choose to come to the Knicks, where it is more challenging. He should rebuild this old team and then compete for a championship of his own. New Yorkers are eager for James, and everyone is giving everything to him. Everyone.
I look forward to James choosing New York. This is the path of challenge for a superstar, but I think he may not want to bear so much pressure anymore (similar to the Cavaliers)."
"Hey, hey, hey... I'm not looking forward to it..." Before Jiang Chao could speak, team leader Turk Drew directly commented on Twitter like a joke.
It can be seen that the Knicks star wants the Knicks to return to the top so much that he does not even mention Jiang Chao's name. Obviously Jiang Chao's inaction during the off-season is too uncomfortable.
It's okay if O'Neal doesn't get it, but James can't do it again??
You must know that this also has the meaning of using a ban to replace the selection. Now that James has joined a team, all the teams in the Eastern Conference have no way to play.
Frazier, who had led the Knicks to two championships, was surprised by James' choice. He was also surprised by the choice of the Heat's Big Three.
Frazier emphasized that in his era, superstars would rather fight each other to the end than join hands early for a championship. He said that if he were James, Wade or Bosh, he would definitely not choose to form the Big Three.
"Especially James." Fraser, who was selected to the All-Defensive Team seven times, emphasized his disappointment with the three superstars joining the Heat.
"If he returns to the Cavaliers or joins the Knicks with Bosh, I can accept it. But why can't he say: 'Okay, I can attract other stars to the Knicks, and we can do big things in New York.
."
This is the James I expect, this is the attitude I hope he adopts."
Frazier used the example of "Magic" Johnson to illustrate that the value that a superstar can embody is not the championship itself, but the process of winning the championship and even establishing a dynasty. This undoubtedly points the finger at James again and hints at his intention to join Wade.
The team simply lost the opportunity to prove itself.
"Magic Johnson doesn't sit around just to be friends with James Worthy or whoever, that's not how he won a championship."
Frazier talked about the Lakers dynasty in the 1980s. Previously, James and others had said that the Heat were the Super Friends team.
"The Big Three of the Lakers were formed naturally, rather than a few people sitting down and conspiring like this year. The Lakers used drafts, trades and other means to actually create a team of players dominated by the Big Three. Yes.
To me, this is completely different from the Heat's Big Three model."
Regardless of whether Frazier can accept the way today's young superstars form a team, he is still optimistic about the Heat's performance next season. He believes that the Heat will rely on the Big Three to dominate the league.
Of course, the Heat will also encounter trouble. The three superstars must share the ball together and must adapt to each other's rhythm.
"I remember Wilt Chamberlain, Jerry West and Elgin Baylor, these three guys played together and they did have internal conflicts."
Fraser said.
"Chamberlain always robbed Baylor of the right to fire, and West's possession time was also severely suppressed, so these three giants suddenly had countless conflicts. I don't think this will happen in the Heat, because James and others are forming a team.
All of this has been connected before, and their goals are the same.”
Finally, Fraser said that although the Heat's Big Three are strong, the actual team's loopholes are still very obvious, and it will still be difficult to win the championship before further reinforcements are obtained.
When talking about the future of the Knicks, Frazier said that the Knicks' team-building goal is always to win a championship, and he firmly believes that the Knicks will regain their glory.
"The off-season is not over yet, we still believe in a wave of young people."
"Well, thank you Mr. Frazier for your trust. I will try my best to do a good job." Facing a celebrity of this level, Jiang Chao must show enough respect. This is a Knicks celebrity with a much higher status than Ewing.
Although the new boss Jiang Chao was not mentioned throughout the interview.
I guess they also feel that this boss was beaten by the Heat last year, and this year he was beaten by the Heat again, and he will never be able to catch up.
I'm here to speak for you guys.
Last year, many Knicks fans clamored to overthrow the Heat next year. The result is that although Yao can come back healthy, the Knicks have two more All-Star starters, so they are playing snake skin!!
Because no matter what, the Heat really don’t know how they lost!!
Strength is a weapon that slaps everyone in the face!
Although the Heat paid 4 first-round picks for these two people, no one will complain about the future. With these three peak All-Stars, the future is now! (The Cavaliers, Raptors and Heat signed and swapped first, ensuring that James
, Bosh directly joined the Heat with this salary, which is not considered a test of the free market.)
woj has already revealed the details of the transaction.
Although James had decided to join the Heat on his own, he was actually transferred to the Heat by the Cavaliers.
When James announced that he was joining the Heat, because the Heat did not have enough salary to sign James, they used a sign-and-trade with the Cavaliers.
In this way, James can enjoy the Bird Clause, and the Cavaliers can also get some compensation.
James signed a six-year, $110 million contract extension with the Cavaliers, with player options for the last two years.
Then, he was traded to the Heat, who sent the Cavaliers two second-round picks, two first-round picks and a 14.5 million trade exception.
At the same time, the Cavaliers have the right to exchange first-round picks with the Heat in 2012.
Of course, the Cavaliers' record in 2012 was far worse than the Heat's, so it was impossible to propose a s
Although the compensation the Cavaliers received from this transaction was minimal, at least this process was real.
"James was traded from the Cavaliers to the Heat in 2010." This may seem like a ridiculous statement, but it is actually true.
Now the door to the free market has officially opened!
Because the Heat's salary is almost filled by the Big Three, other superstars can't even think of joining these three.
After James left the Cavaliers, his younger brother Ilgauskas also jumped ship from the Cavaliers to the Heat, both with a minimum salary!
Renewed contracts with veterans Udonis Haslem and Joel Anthony with a minimum salary.
Signed Wizards sharpshooter Mike Miller…
James’ little brother James Jones…
Sign another veteran inside, who will also be the future assistant coach of the Heat coaching staff, Juwan Howard...
There is also a series of basic salary renewal operations to wait for.
After having James, Beasley naturally no longer needed to exist, and was directly traded to the Timberwolves to continue to supplement the Timberwolves' forward line.
Darrell Wright was also traded to the Warriors. Anyway, the striker is no longer needed. With an iron man like James, he will definitely average 40 minutes per game in the playoffs.
While these transactions were going on with the Heat, Jiang Chao, who knew there would be these transactions, did not do anything to stop them.
Although he knew that Mike Miller would be a big loser after being given to the Heat, he didn't stop him, mainly because it was of no use to the Knicks, and after being backstabbed by the Thunder, he didn't want to help any team.
The Knicks have Zhang Tielin, who is as crazy as Miller.
And to be honest, the Heat were like this in the first year. Weren't they defeated by the single-core Nowitzki?
Because I am not afraid, I am not timid.
Even if I don’t do anything during the offseason, we, the Knicks, are still doing well, right?
Yao hasn't played for a season, has everyone forgotten his title as the league's number one center?
This kind of big center is the nemesis of breakthrough masters like Wade and James, okay?
Not to mention the addition of three James Hunters this year.
George is always against LeBron James.
When Hai Shuai came to Kaizi, Anji made it clear that he was recruiting him to fight James.
Kyle Anderson was the best candidate for the Spurs to defend James when Leonard was on the bench and after Leonard left the Spurs. As we all know, James' statistics against the Spurs have always been mediocre.
In addition, I, Kuha, have grown up for another year. Are labor and management afraid of you???
A three-point shot will kill you!
Not to mention Turk Drew, who stepped on James and entered the finals before. To guard against James, these European players have the most experience, start a zone defense!
As for Wade, the back line has made him suffer this year. Beverley, Matthews, Danny Green, which one is not a 3D?
And Bosh, David Lee, Ibaka, and Yi Jianlian are all in the same type as you, and on the offensive end Okur can bully you with his body several times, let alone Yao Ming's dimensionality reduction attack!
Jiang Chao is not worried about this, but the team is still worried.
For this reason, Jiang Chao specially called everyone who was preparing for the preseason to hold a small meeting at the training camp.
"Brothers basketball, let's not be afraid. It's them who should be afraid."
Jiang Chao finally spoke up in front of Knicks employees, and he immediately analyzed the real reason why James went to play basketball with brothers.
This is also used to emphasize the core of the Knicks team:
"We must not join together if we can't beat them, or stick together if we can't beat them. This is my bottom line! Anyone with this kind of thinking is best not to play!"
This is the spirit of the team!
First of all, James was anxious after the Kaizi poached the Cavaliers' O'Neal with a minimum salary.
During his seven years with the Cavaliers, James grew into a league superstar. The team ranked first in the league with 61 wins and 21 losses that year. So why did he leave?
In the 2007 Finals, the Green Army's three giants of Garnett, Pierce, Ray Allen and the "variety" Rondo were eliminated in the second round tiebreaker.
In the 2009 Eastern Conference Finals, the Cavaliers met the Celtics again, and this time they lost 2-4. It was precisely because of this loss that it was the direct reason why James left the Cavaliers.
But James can completely defeat Pierce in the matchup, but he is also completely defeated by the Green Army in other positions.
The phenomenon of hugging the NBA is getting more and more serious now. After James fell to the same opponent in two playoffs, he resolutely gave up his promising future with the Cavaliers.
With Wade and Bosh, they formed the "Three Brothers in the Taoyuan". There is no longer the spirit of Joe's iron-blooded revenge against the Celtics in the past. In order to win the championship, everyone seems to have no lower limit.
Ibaka and others said this with passion and enthusiasm, and it had to be criticized by the boss himself for it to hit the nail on the head.
What some people on the Internet analyzed about being for hometown, for friends, etc. are all fake, but wanting to be a Celtic is true?
In fact, an article written by James' agent Rich Paul is already explaining to James. He is imitating Garnett's path. Although the article is about Garnett, it is explaining to James.
Why don't you guys complain about Garnett?
"Messina, please read this article and let everyone express their opinions."
This article by Rich Paul was directly ranked as the number one hot post by James fans.
Lao James's starting point for entering the league was too high. Coupled with his outstanding performance as a rookie and the media momentum, it can be said that James was the most capable and most promising person to catch up with Jordan at the time.
The trajectory of his career in the first few years has been greatly improved, and he set various records for being the youngest player and an All-Star in his rookie season.
It can be predicted that James' goals at that time were to win the Rookie of the Year award in the first year, an All-Star performance in the second year, a super performance in the playoffs in the third year, and a super performance in the Finals after defeating the Pistons in the fourth year.
At that time, people believed that Lao Zhan's future was immeasurable, including Lao Zhan himself, who must have been very confident in himself at that time.
However, Waterloo soon came, and the Big Three of the Green Army Group in 2007 began to dominate the east.
The post also criticized the Cavaliers' own reasons.
The sports market in Cleveland is not good, so teams like the Cavaliers basically cannot attract superstars.
In addition, Lao Zhan entered the playoffs in his third year, so in the following years, there were few rookies in the draft lottery field.
The level of the Cavaliers' management and coaching staff is also very poor. Rookies cannot hunt for treasures, and top stars cannot go there.
This also led to James' bloody playoffs in the first few years of his career, but the outcome was not good.
After all, basketball is a sport in which many people participate. No matter how strong one person is, he cannot drag the team to win the championship.
In addition, losing to the Big Three against the Celtics basically shattered James' mentality.
The initial starting point was Jordan's early playbook, which was similar, but the difference was in the team context and management.
Jordan had Pippen in the fourth grade, and introduced President Alpine coach Phil Jackson in the fifth grade.
Compared with James at that time, you will find that apart from his personal ability, Lao James's other conditions are not as good as Jordan's at the same time, and there is still no hope of improvement.
This is just like the trajectory of Garnett's trajectory with the Timberwolves.
He can make the playoffs every year, but he can't get far.
He received praise but lost games, and did not develop good rookies, year after year.
The author of the article also said that James was also influenced by Garnett. After all, Garnett won the championship a year after joining the Celtics, one of the three giants.
James has a higher starting point and goal than Garnett. If you stay in the Cavaliers, it is not impossible to win the championship, but you may not even win a championship in your life.
This situation is unacceptable for someone like James, who was born with high hopes.
"The crown theory is ridiculous."
"Haha, I also want to be on par with Jordan, but can't I do it step by step?"
"Yeah, Barkley didn't win the championship, but we still respect him because he played the passionate basketball we want to see!"
Regarding this article, Coha and others felt that this was making excuses. If you want to win the championship, just say so. Do you really think you are the emperor?
Jiang Chao smiled and shook his head. The Knicks players are a bunch of James, but it is true that not many players have worked with James in later generations.
He continued:
James didn't come to the Heat just to help Wade win the championship, because Wade already had a championship ring in 2006. Wade and James have a very good personal relationship, and it was precisely because James was unhappy with the Cavaliers.
, he joined the Heat only after the team failed to achieve good results.
Then Jiang Chao directly pointed out the problems that will arise with this Heat:
If the ball is not scored enough, there will be conflicts in key balls, and there is no particularly good passer in the team.
If James joins the Heat, he won't be able to become the team's second best player.
Because the personal abilities of James, Wade and Bosh are so strong, the three of them will control 90% of the team's ball rights, while the others only have 10% of the ball.
Later, after the three of them won the second championship, this problem became more and more obvious in the team, so the three of them parted ways after achieving their respective goals four years later.
James kept saying it was Wade's team at first, but then he stopped talking about it after playing a few games. In addition, the Heat have always won, and everyone is just for the championship, so it doesn't matter.
But in fact, if this can be used to provoke a conflict between the two on the court, this may be the breakthrough point to defeat them.
Beverly:
"If I have a chance, I come to trash talk their conflicts. I have already thought about it. I will spit it directly in James's gorilla face: The Heat will always belong to Dian Wei! You are just a little finger!"
"Ha ha ha ha."
After Jiang Chao said this, the depressed atmosphere among the players became much better. After watching the Heat's trade recently, many players became emo. After the end of last season, everyone was full of blood and wanted to compete for the championship.
As a result, the Heat have recently made them lose their temper, so Jiang Chao, the initiator of the championship talk, can only give them some guidance.
In fact, they are not the only ones. Most teams in the Eastern Conference feel that the NBA, at least the Eastern Conference, has come to an end. They may be able to defeat the Celtics, but they will definitely not be able to defeat the powerful Heat, so what is the point of next season?
It's better to have a bad off-season, save some effort and invest early to find another way out!
Anyway, many Western Conference stars who want to write about their journey to the East are already deterred.
"Okay, okay, can we focus on our own affairs now?? In my opinion, you are all All-Stars, and they only have three All-Stars, so what are you afraid of?"
In the end, Jiang Supernatural gave some useful information:
"By the way, who doesn't want to participate in the NBA China Game? Raise your hand?"
As a result, no one raised their hands. In fact, the China game was very tiring, as it meant being jet-lagged on the plane all the time. Many superstars were unwilling to come, or they only wanted to make money without playing.
"Okay, then you can go together then."
Just as everyone was about to leave, Jiang Chao suddenly asked:
"Well, our team still has more than 20 million yuan of space. Does anyone have any stars they want to recruit?"
The players looked at each other. They were basically rookies. How could they have a relationship with the stars?
Ibaka said directly:
"Aren't the stars in the Western Conference willing to come?"
Beverly also nodded: "The east is undergoing great changes, but the west may have more opportunities."
"The Eastern Conference is fine!" David Lee, the top student, suddenly looked at Turk Drew.
The agent also smiled:
"Well, I can be a middleman and ask Howard what he wants???"
"Okay, that's what I mean. We will do one thing during the off-season, and it will also be the last thing: Stud Howard!!!!!"
Jiang Chao leaned on the seat with his hands, his eyes shining brightly.
Whether the league is in chaos or not, I, the Knicks, have the final say!!!
