Super Lord of the Rings

James has his eye on another close friend, Chris Paul.

Paul arrived in Los Angeles in mid-July, causing many media to speculate whether his next stop would be to join the Lakers.

James invites Paul to dinner and wants to know some inside information.

Joining the Kings, James bears the infamy, but he will not be satisfied with just one championship. He hopes to establish a dynasty, win as many consecutive championships as possible, and improve his historical status.

Too many star teams will make it more difficult to win the championship, especially Paul, he is the strongest point guard in the league, and transferring to a strong team may change the league structure.

James' unselfishness is toward teammates, not competitors. Therefore, even if he is a good friend in life, he does not want Paul to go to a super team, unless it is the King.

If Paul all ran to the Kings, it would really be an 82-game winning streak, and no other team would be able to play. The league will not allow this to happen.

James was able to join the Kings before because there were only two superstars, and the others were role players, even Ray Allen was in decline. If another star comes and crosses the bottom line of the league, Stern will find a way to stop it no matter what, and other team owners will definitely protest jointly.

After chatting about entertainment and family, James asked about basketball: "The news says that you might join the Lakers. Will you come?"

"No, I never thought of going to the Lakers. If it was Los Angeles, I would rather be traded to the Clippers. Now the Clippers are very promising and have enough bargaining chips."

"why?"

"Because Gasol touched my head last season."

James was stunned, hunched over, squinted his eyes and asked, "Touch your head?"

"Just like I take my son to the bathroom, I will put my hand on my son's head, because he is my son." Paul said through gritted teeth: "Do you understand what I mean? I know Gasol Such a tall guy, but she shouldn't be doing that head pat to me that I did to my son."

James froze for two seconds, then laughed out loud.

Sometimes, a person's decision will be changed because of a small detail, a bad impression.

Paul's impression of the Lakers is not good. Of course, the deeper reason why he doesn't want to go to the Lakers is that he wants to be the boss of the team and create a legend.

If he goes to the Lakers,

It will definitely be said to hug the thigh, and that leg is not thick enough, why bother to find it uncomfortable?

He said it was because of Gasol, because he took into account the face of James, who is the second in charge of the Kings.

A number of teams, including the Dallas Mavericks and Houston Rockets, are actively pursuing Paul, but there's no indication they're among those that Hornets general manager Dell Demps is seriously considering.

The crux of the problem is not the Hornets' ideas, but Paul's attitude. He must go to a competitive team that can persuade him to renew his long-term contract.

The Knicks have little hope of Paul playing alongside Carmelo Anthony and Amare Stoudemire. It must be a team with enough chips and strong role players to impress him, not three stars together, and the others are marginal people. Playing like that is tiring, and it's hard to win.

Currently, the leading chasers in Paul's mind are the Clippers, Nets and Warriors.

The Clippers champion Irving can be used as an important bargaining chip. Griffin, Yao Ming, Jordan Jr. on the inside, Bledsoe and Randy Foye on the outside, it won't hurt to switch to Paul, but the swingman position is weak.

The Nets have the most potential young players, and the trading chips will allow the Hornets to quickly complete the rebuild. As long as Randolph's contract is renewed in the summer, they will have excellent scoring points inside and outside.

The Warriors can send one of Monta Ellis and Brandon Jennings, and rookies such as Noah and Monroe are not for sale.

These three teams can not only satisfy the appetite of the Hornets, but also keep Paul's heart.

For the Warriors, the advantage is that Paul respects their new head coach very much.

In mid-June, former Knicks legendary point guard Mark Jackson joined the Warriors, and chief assistant Michael Malone also worked with Paul in the Hornets. It was Malone who made the Hornets the most improved defensive team in the league.

East Coast, New York.

Carmelo Anthony and Deron Williams are also eating together. Anthony intends to recruit Deron. The two have a good relationship in the national team because they have a lot in common.

They are also super strong on the offensive end; they were all robbed of the limelight by their brothers in the same class; they also did not make the best team and did not win substantive honors; they were the core of their respective teams before, and they were unable to break through in the West; they were all No. 3; They are all fat.

They even have the same goal in Xia Tian, ​​striving to train from Second Senior Brother to Sha Junior Brother.

Nuggets coach George Karl once revealed that he had a very deep impression on Deron in the 2005 draft. The Nuggets originally planned to trade with the Hawks, through which they got the second pick in the hands of the Hawks, and then chose Deron, but failed in the end.

Now, Deron and Anthony have the opportunity to work together.

The Jazz management has been annoyed by Deron, saying that he will be traded out. Last season, Deron forced out the head coach Sloan.

The two had an altercation at halftime against the Bulls, and the two nearly broke out in the office afterward.

Assistant coach Ty Corbin pulled Deron away, and the Jazz manager told the coach to focus on winning, and reiterated that the team must support the coach more than the players.

Sloan thought he had been with the Jazz for so long that he was running out of gas in the tank, and announced his resignation the next day.

Deron didn't trade out in the mid-term because he didn't have the right chips. Now, other teams can send out anyone, such as Billups plus potential rookies and draft picks. As long as the salary space can be vacated in the future, the Jazz want to send Deron away and start rebuilding.

The two sides are currently negotiating, and the Knicks are still pursuing Bulls center Tyson Chandler, intending to strengthen their defense.

If the deal is reached, the Knicks have a decent lineup depth. Deron, Anthony, Stoudemire, Chandler, looks very strong.

As for whether these people can have a chemical reaction and what kind of fight they will be known in the future.

The Heat also want to poach people. Wade talked to Prince and Battier.

Battier made it clear that he would not stay, and Prince did not directly refuse. In fact, there is also a place he wants to go, the Spurs in the West.

The only weakness of the Spurs is the small forward. It is a helpless move to replace George Hill with Kawhi Leonard. The rookie cannot be expected to play well in one season. Salmons' defense is poor and his shooting is unstable. The Spurs are ready to give up.

With Prince joining, the Spurs will definitely become a championship team next season. The two sides have not finalized the salary and number of years. Prince hopes to get a long-term contract, and the Spurs want to give him a short contract to train new players.

The Super Heat disintegrated in just one season, and Riley's inaction made Wade very disappointed.

Unbeknownst to Wade, now Riley is considering trading him for rebuilding. Before the Heat only signed a four-year contract with Wade, they just didn't want the time limit to be too long. In 2014 at the latest, Wade will definitely leave the team.

No matter what the result of the collective bargaining agreement is, it will not change the trend of player groups, and the NBA has entered a crazy era.
