Phil Jackson chose to be the head coach of the Knicks after they formed the Big Three, causing an uproar in Los Angeles.
Although the NBA does not require loyalty from the head coach.
But is Phil Jackson an ordinary head coach?
He is the husband of Lakers Vice President Jeanie Buss.
Last season, he made trouble when the Lakers were at their peak, which disgusted many Lakers fans.
Well now, I went directly to the Knicks, and even threatened to kill Coach D and the Lakers.
This gives Lakers fans a bad feeling.
When Phil Jackson took over the Knicks, he never thought about his own retreat with the Lakers. Jim Buss came to power and Coach D became more powerful, so he actually had no retreat.
So, feel free to scold him, it doesn't matter to him now anyway.
Mayfair Jackson doesn't matter, but someone does!
Although Aunt Jenny has lost power now, she is still the vice president of the Lakers.
Your husband left to become the head coach of the Knicks. What do you think?
Jerry West is not dead yet. Have you forgotten the relationship between the Lakers and the Knicks?
In the 1970 NBA Finals, the Lakers, who had the Big Three of Chamberlain, Baylor and Jerry West, were confident that they would win the team's first championship after arriving in Los Angeles. After the first five games, the Knicks Leading 3 to 2, in Game 6, Knicks legendary center Willis Reed was injured and unable to play. Chamberlain killed everyone, scoring 45 points and 27 rebounds, dragging the game into a tiebreaker.
At this point in the game, no matter how you look at it, the Lakers' championship is guaranteed.
Then in Game 7, Knicks legendary center Willis Reed braved a serious thigh strain and actually played with the injury, jumping on one leg!
And after Reid comes on the court, he does nothing else but fuck Chamberlain!
Fuck Chamberlain with one leg!
First, he hit a mid-range shot near the free throw line, and then hit a shot from the right baseline, scoring the team's first 4 points.
This is one leg!
Chamberlain was blinded directly.
Reed only played 2 minutes and did not play again in the rest of the game.
Although he only played for two minutes, he brought a huge morale boost to the team. Walter Frazier broke out, scoring 36 points and 19 assists. The Knicks were so powerful that they defeated the Lakers in the second quarter and finally won the championship. First championship in team history.
Reid was crowned Finals MVP.
After this finals, the basketball emperor Chamberlain was abruptly labeled as a 'softie' by Reid.
After this finals, the Lakers were also labeled as a 'soft egg team' by the entire NBA.
If the Big Three teams were treated like this by Reid, you really can't blame others for talking about you.
This finals, known as the "Broken Leg Battle," was also the last straw for Baylor, the Lakers' most unlucky star.
After this game, Baylor was drained of all his energy and energy. In the next two years, he was unlucky and encountered everything. His whole person collapsed. Then on the eve of the dawn of the Lakers, he sadly chose to retire.
Many people know that the Lakers and Celtics are mortal enemies.
In fact, it was the Knicks who hurt the Lakers the most.
In that era, if they lost to the Celtics, not many people would think that the Lakers were weak, and no one could beat the Celtics.
But the Big Three lost to Reed with a broken leg, which was a lot of fun.
Equivalent to this year's finals, Du Kang led the Lakers 3-0, but was frightened by Wade with a broken leg in the end, and finally lost the finals.
Greater than the Heat's Big Three finals, Nowitzki collapsed due to a cold.
If this thing really happens, I won’t be able to get out of it for another 20 years.
Well, it's been 40 years now, and the label of a soft-egg team attached to the Lakers has not been removed.
Do you think the feud between the Lakers and Knicks is over?
Two years later, the Lakers without Baylor, led by Jerry West and Chamberlain, defeated the Knicks without Reid and won the Lakers' first championship in Los Angeles.
Because they had won the championship, Logo Man and Emperor Zhang were so proud that they wanted to win consecutive championships, so they postponed their retirement for a year.
Then, they met the Knicks again in the finals. This time, the man who defeated the Lakers, Uncle Li with a broken leg, stood up again. Reed, who had returned from injury, brought his younger brother Phil Jackson and others, and again Fucked Emperor Zhang and the logo man again.
"In front of me, you were softies before you won the championship, and you are still softies after you win the championship!"
Directly closed the loop.
In Jerry West's heart, the thing he hates most is probably the Knicks. His good friend Elgin Baylor was defeated and left with eternal regret. He was also sucked over and over again and could not take revenge.
This grudge lasted until Phil Jackson came to the Lakers in 1999. Jerry West just didn't want Phil Jackson to be the Lakers head coach. Jerry Buss finally defied all odds to let Phil Jackson come in, which directly led to Jerry West. Te left the Lakers.
Seeing Phil Jackson, Jerry West can always think of the shadows of the past. He always feels that Phil Jackson does not respect him. He always feels that the way Phil Jackson looks at him is like the way Reid looked at them back then. Oh, this is not Little Soft No. 3?
Can someone like Jerry West say directly and publicly that Phil Jackson lacks respect for him.
It can be seen how deeply the events of that year cast a deep shadow on Jerry West.
Well, Phil Jackson really has no respect for Jerry West.
Although Jerry West's status in the NBA was already as high as that time, but... I saw you peed your pants when you were a child.
Therefore, no matter how much you go to heaven, I really can’t respect you enough.
There is simply no solution.
In order not to feel sick when seeing Phil Jackson every day, it is better to leave the Lakers.
Therefore, Jerry West's departure is actually a continuation of the feud between the Lakers and the Knicks.
This time, Phil Jackson publicly expressed his intention to kill Coach D and the Lakers, which is also a continuation of the grudges from back then.
The Lakers are the defending champions.
The Knicks are the team with the highest odds of winning the NBA title right now.
Next season, there will definitely be a battle.
Well, according to the new season's schedule, the Lakers' opening game will be against the Knicks!
The NBA can still play.
Lakers fans are scolding Phil Jackson now, but they don't hate him. He was originally from the Knicks, so there is no problem in returning to the Knicks.
The problem now is Aunt Jenny.
Aunt Jenny, you are the princess of the Lakers, your husband is having sex now, shouldn’t you show something.
The day after Phil Jackson became the head coach of the Knicks, Aunt Jenny announced that she would dissolve her marriage to Phil Jackson.
This love affair of more than ten years and marriage of less than 10 months ended like this.
All I can say is that Aunt Jenny is indeed a hero among women.
Phil Jackson and Nicks put a lot of pressure on Aunt Jenny.
But it's definitely not as stressful as Du Kang's.
He doesn’t want to be Jerry West second.
New York Knicks fans are very, very influential.
All the Knicks' championships were won by the Lakers.
At that time, the Knicks could breastfeed Jerry West and Chamberlain closed the loop.
If he leads the team to the Finals this time, he will also become part of the closed loop if they lose to the Knicks.
"Forty years ago, you were weaklings, and forty years later, in front of us, you are still weaklings!"
"Sleep and eat while playing the Lakers. The Lakers are soft and delicious cupcakes!"
Who can bear this?
Du Kang felt that people like Jerry West couldn't stand it and had a psychological shadow. Du Kang felt that he himself couldn't stand it even more.
So the question is, can Dayao bear it?
In the new season, the Lakers play the Knicks, and the showdown between Yao Ming and Warcraft is the absolute focus.
but……
Seeing Dayao's current attributes, Du Kang was really worried for a while.
Yao Ming
Favorability towards you: 89
Mood: excited, anxious
Overall rating: 80
Potential: 92
Offensive attributes: 43 layups, 70 behind-the-back jumpers, 92 behind-the-back hooks, 91 behind-the-back control, 77 fouls, 91 close shots, 83 mid-range shots, 50 three-pointers, 81 free throws, 56 ball control, passing Ball IQ 65, passing accuracy 60, offensive rebounds 69, in-situ dunk: 85, cut-in dunk 35, shooting IQ 93, passing vision 58, catching ability 94
Defensive attributes: 78 defensive rebounds, 84 inside defense, 70 outside defense, 75 blocks, 50 steals, 75 shot interference
Athletic ability: lateral agility 36, speed 51, dribbling speed 37, acceleration 51, jumping 55, strength 86, physical strength 85, scrambling ability 66
Mental attributes: Passing Insight 68, Defensive Stability 64, Help Defense IQ 70, Offensive Stability 80, Pick and Roll Defense IQ 62.
Durability: Overall durability 82.
Judging from Dayao's attributes, it's actually not bad. After all, that's what the NBA champion, the 22-year-old Dayao, is like.
In terms of offense, hook shots and close shots are all above 90, and back control is also 91, which is the basis of Shanghai's pace. His shooting IQ is 93, and his offensive stability and mid-range shooting are both above 80.
This offense is really possible.
What's more, Dayao's passing and organization attributes are all above 60. This is also very acceptable and can be used as a support.
Even in terms of athletic ability, except for lateral agility, other acceleration and speed are above 50, which is already very fast for a 2.26-meter center. Oden is only in the 60s now, and Oden is already considered big. The center's athletic ability is top-notch.
Of course, Oden is still a semi-disabled Oden, and his athletic ability has not yet recovered.
The shortcomings on offense, well, he can't play hard from behind. This is what worries Du Kang the most.
Dayao eats, sleeps and fights beasts. His strongest weapon is his back-to-back attack.
Now, the weapons are gone.
Then, what is even more frightening is that Dayao now has experience in fighting beasts. Now Dayao is 33 years old. His playing experience and method have been transformed into gorilla-like experience by Van Gundy Jr., but his attributes are still The attributes of the previous Xiaoxianrou period.
Playing experience and attributes do not match!
In other words, when meeting Howard, Yao Ming would subconsciously hit hard, but his current strong-hitting attributes simply cannot support Yao Ming's ability to hit Howard hard.
Thinking of this, Du Kang thought of a terrible picture.
Emperor Wu, who traveled back in time to his childhood, wanted to use his ultimate move to kill the enemy instantly, but he shouted for a long time, but nothing happened.
In the end, he was beaten and kicked by the enemy.
That scene was absolutely terrible to watch.
Du Kang shook his head quickly.
Get Dayao up from the bed.
"Dayao, there's no need to lie down. Today is the last day of acupuncture. Try it and see how your body recovers."
"Coach Xiao Du, is this the last day?"
Dayao got up from the bed. As soon as he stood up, he felt completely different.
"Why is it so easy?!"
Yao Ming was dumbfounded.
This is too fast!
Before acupuncture, he was still very heavy when running, jumping and walking, but now he is so relaxed?
I had acupuncture 80 times before, but there was no change. Finally, after the 81st acupuncture, everything was healed?
Is Chinese medicine so magical?
"Dayao, how do you feel?"
“It feels like I’m back when I was on the Shanghai team!”
"Do you still remember how the Shanghai team played?"
Yao Ming, who was originally excited, suddenly felt embarrassed.
This question was often asked by Adelman when he was still with the Rockets. After returning to China, his first coach also often asked him.
Then, his answer was, forget it.
It's so damn embarrassing.
This disappointed Adelman.
His first coach was also disappointed.
It seems that Dayao is indeed confused by Van Gundy now and does not know how he played in the Shanghai team.
But it doesn't matter, just pick it up.
In the past, it was not easy to pick up Dayao's huge body.
It's much easier now.
"Dayao, your task now is to watch more videos of you playing under Tang Shuai in the Shanghai team, and then go to the basketball court to try your body."
Seeing Dayao's impatient look, Du Kang said with a smile.
"Coach Xiao Du, thank you!"
After saying that, Yao Ming left in a hurry.
"Ding, your player Yao Ming's favorability towards you has reached 95, please check it carefully."
Um……
How about smashing down two purple potential cards?
Du Kang looked at his current MP.
It cost 5,000 MP to repair Carter's knee, and 1,000 MP to simulate the draft. In addition to various simulation costs in the playoffs, he doesn't have much MP on his body now.
He only played 4 games in the finals and only earned him 5,000 MP, which was all used to restore Carter's knee.
So, now he is still a pauper.
Even if Yao Ming is hit with two potential cards and has no MP, it will be useless.
Now Yao Ming is 33 years old, his peak age is 25 years old, and he can no longer improve on his own.
Therefore, even if you have potential, you can’t practice it.
Yao Ming's peak began at the age of 25 and ended at the age of 31.
Du Kang must raise Yao Ming's two ages to above 34 this season, otherwise at the end of next season, Yao Ming's attributes will drop significantly because he has passed his peak period, and he will suffer a loss by then.
Therefore, Yao Ming's current situation is the most suitable for using the Dream Card.
And it's not an ordinary dream card, but the kind of dream card that hone your character.
For example, wheat and 35 seconds and 13 minutes.
But this kind of thing is something you can only meet once in a while. Maizi’s 35 seconds and 13 minutes dream card is not that strong. It’s just that Maizi was unlucky and happened to use Yao Ming’s account, so it became a hell difficulty.
So the question is, which dream card is hellish for Yao Ming, which can lead him to a life of doubt and finally complete a joyful transformation?
Well, if Yao Ming cannot be awakened as the ultimate trailblazer, Yao Ming will collapse after this season.
Du Kang now has 1 purple glory point and 1 ordinary glory point in his hand.
You can buy a silver dream card and a copper dream card.
This requires careful selection.
"I hope I can find the right one."
Du Kang looked at Yao Ming's attributes and then looked at Yao Ming's shooting hot spots. In addition to the five areas outside the three-point line, the other nine areas inside the three-point line were all red.
This one is awesome!
This was definitely the most awesome hot zone he had seen since Nash's all-red hot zone.
As a big center, the three-point line is completely red. This is too overbearing!
This means that Yao Ming can become a full-area offensive insider!
After watching the hot zone, it’s time for the character part that I love to see.
LV3 friendliness.
LV3 team spirit.
LV2's calmness.
LV3’s work ethic.
The pioneer of LV1.
He has a very average personality, definitely not as full of flaws as Maizi, but he has a good personality.
It’s just that the high-level character pioneers are a little low-level.
Skill.
In terms of inside scoring, there are: golden aerial work, golden dreamy footsteps, gold big and small masters, and silver back-turning technicians.
Outside scoring: Bronze mid-range king.
Organizational skills: None
Defensive skills: Golden penalty zone defensive master, gold-level bronze wall, bronze-level ball-fighting madman
8 skills are certainly not too few for a rookie, and they are of extremely high quality, almost all of them golden.
However, none of the skills of peak Yao Ming like Master Shen Dibu are there.
After the Emperor Wu was reborn, all his special moves could no longer be used. Then, the reborn Emperor Wu could start practicing from the beginning. But in Yao Ming's case, his reborn body was past the age of martial arts training and could no longer practice.
This is a bit embarrassing.
The special trick to defeat the beast is gone, what should we do when facing the beast?
Beast is in New York now.
Yao Ming is now with the Lakers.
If you lose, you will really be unable to hold your head up for half a month.
So Du Kang has a little regret. If the 23-year-old Yao Ming comes back, will the 24-year-old Yao Ming be better?
only……
Looking at Yao Ming, all parts of his body are now over 80. Du Kang feels that time is priceless, durability is priceless, and youth is priceless.
If given another chance, he would choose 22-year-old Yao Ming.
The Lakers' operations this summer, although in the eyes of public opinion around the world, are full of shortcomings.
But for Du Kang, it was full of surprises.
Reggie Miller dreamed of returning to his peak and opened the blind box to 89.
Then, Jackson, O'Neal, and Artest can also use the Dream Back to Peak card.
Except for Jackson, O'Brien and Artest all have abilities above 90 when using the Dream Back to Peak card.
However, the Dream Back to Peak Card can only be used by one person at a time, so four people cannot reach the peak at the same time.
It's just that Reggie Miller, O'Neal Jr., Jackson and Artest have different styles. When he needs what kind of players, he has a lot of choices.
The existence of the Pacers' front four can really make up for the many shortcomings that Du Kang needs.
Except for the Pacers quartet.
What surprises Du Kang the most is naturally the four rookies selected this year.
Antetokounmpo's potential is 96, which Du Kang didn't expect at all.
Antetokounmpo's ability is now 79, which is also very high, but it is all false.
What is false height?
Most of it comes from physical attributes.
Antetokounmpo's comprehensive durability is 90, and most of the durability is above 95, followed by 85 lateral agility, 90 speed, 87 dribbling speed, 90 acceleration, 88 jumping, 80 strength, 98 physical strength, and 83 scrambling ability.
Look at the physical attributes and durability.
This is a power forward, can you believe it?
Except for strength, everything else is absolutely top-notch. Even among outside small forwards, he is no worse than Ebanks, or even a little better.
Another unique thing about Antetokounmpo is that his outside defense and inside defense attributes are both 80, which is also very good.
Originally, Du Kang did not have such high expectations for picking up the leak this time.
This is indeed a surprise.
With such high potential and still so young, if you find an opportunity to let him go to hell, he can take off!
Compared with Antetokounmpo, Mcaway has another style.
McAway's ability value is 81, his potential value is 84, his peak starting age is 21, and his peak ending age is 23.
This is also the first time Du Kang has seen such a player.
The peak comes so early, and the peak ends so quickly.
It feels like he will age prematurely after two seasons.
For such a player, Du Kang suspected that even if he trained the ultimate Blazer, he would not be able to save his premature aging.
However, the ability value of 81 is really good for a rookie. Yao Ming is only 80.
McAway is good at everything, not strong at anything, and his offensive stability is 36. What a genius. This is the first time Du Kang has seen a player with an offensive stability lower than 40!
Is this a surprise?
Seeing McAway, Du Kang felt that even if he had a system, he would never come back.
However, there is no problem in using it for one or two seasons.
Of the Lakers' other two second-round picks, Kanan's attributes are average, with an ability of 75 and a potential of 78. This point guard is a very ordinary rookie point guard in the NBA. He has some ability but not much strength. You can use it if you want.
If you don't use it, you can still make a living in the NBA. When everyone forgets about him, he will leave the NBA.
What are the characteristics?
Well, does 1.83 meters count?
This height shows that he is not 1.83 meters tall and is a fan of Iverson.
On the contrary, it was Robert Covington. This 2.01 meter striker gave Du Kang a big surprise.
This 23-year-old rookie has an ability of 77 and a potential of 79.
His abilities and potential seem average, but his bonus points are very interesting.
Offensive attributes, other attributes are very average, but the three-pointer actually has 85 attributes, and then the inside defense has 80, the outside defense also has 80, the steals have 80, the blocks have 80, the offensive stability is 65, and the defensive stability is 80!
This is standard 3D, and it’s the kind of 3D that can be used both inside and outside!
Covington gave Du Kang the feeling of a monster with average ability but very strong actual combat ability when playing football manager.
Just add this, even though his ability is only 77, if he is put on the court, his effect is better than those all-round players with an ability of 80.
Du Kang's draft was externally evaluated as a D-level draft by the American media.
Du Kang was all selected according to the system's predicted draft ranking.
After looking at it in the end, Du Kang felt that if he gained one blood, he would gain two.
Therefore, if you open the blind box based on the system's predicted draft, you can still get good things.
Yao Ming, the Pacers quartet, three usable rookies, plus Kobe, Tracy McGrady and Ebanks, Oden, and Du Kang are still looking forward to their new season.
As for Stoudemire...
Stoudemire's situation is a bit complicated.
Stoudemire
Favorability towards you: 80
Mood: unhappy, angry
After Stoudemire was traded to the Lakers, he went directly to Jim Shu and expressed the hope that Shu could grant him amnesty or buy out his contract.
Except for Stoudemire, the Lakers' current salary space is 80 million, which is just under the luxury tax line and has not exceeded it.
If there is more Stoudemire, it will exceed 20 million.
According to the NBA's salary space rules, since he can't be a starter with the Lakers, it would be a waste to keep him, a waste of the Lakers' money, a waste of the Lakers' space and his future.
He wanted to go to Dallas.
He still has a two-year contract worth 45 million. Stoudemire said that he would suffer a little loss and was willing to reach a buyout with the Lakers for 40 million.
After the buyout, the Lakers will recalculate the salary cap based on Stoudemire's two-year, 40 million buyout fee. Well, it is equivalent to a salary loss of 2.5 million per year and a luxury tax of at least 5 million.
In two years, he paid at least 10 million less in luxury tax.
This is indeed beneficial to the Lakers.
It is naturally more beneficial to Stoudemire.
He is free to go to the team he wants to go to, or he can just lie down without working. Anyway, there is no loss.
That's what Jimmie was going to do.
But Du Kang refused.
He had a better solution.
If you don’t want to stay, Du Kang never forces it.
"Amar, Coach D asked you to go to China, I think you should go there, Yao, Nash, Kobe, Ebanks, Oden, TMC, they are all in China now, all with Coach D, I think you There will be development under Coach D.”
"And, rumor has it, Coach D can do magical acupuncture, which may be able to save your knees."
"Haipi, I am different from Steve. I will never be inferior to Yao. Coach D promised Yao's starting position, but did not give me such a promise. It is impossible for me to accept the substitute status. I am an All-Star. My knees There is still hope, I believe in American medical care, and we must believe in science!"
"Amar, maybe acupuncture is also science?"
"That's the Chinese witch doctor! Maybe it works, maybe... I respect Coach D, but I can't play as a substitute. The Lakers have no hope of winning the championship. I also want the Knicks to regret it!"
Stoudemire was so determined that Hapi-Waters stopped trying to persuade him.
He is the agent for Barea, Monta Alice, Patterson and others, and he has connections in the Mavericks.
The Mavericks want Stoudemire.
The Mavericks didn't get Yi and wanted to try Stoudemire, hoping that Stoudemire would have a chance to return to the top.
But such a chance is very slim. The Mavericks are willing to give Stoudemire core status and opportunities, but are not willing to pay a high transaction price for him.
The Lakers were unwilling to buy out Stoudemire, which put them in an awkward situation.
"It would be great if the Lakers still had a chance to win the championship..."
Hapi-Waters gave a final sigh.
The Lakers let go of so many players at once this season, and their summer reinforcements were in a mess.
As the defending champion, the operations of Coach D and Jim Buss this summer have caused the Lakers' current championship odds to drop directly to the tenth place.
The team's capable players are all veterans.
The two backbone players are Ebanks and Oden.
The other four young people are all rookies who will not be used in the playoffs.
How to fight this?
ESPN loves rankings when summer comes.
Historical status, ranking of current NBA players, in short, as long as it can be ranked, ESPN will have a foot in it.
In ESPN's latest ranking, which invited 100 experts and celebrities to participate.
NBA team combat effectiveness ranking.
The Lakers didn't even crack the top ten.
Ranked first is of course the Knicks led by Phil Jackson, James, Howard and Anthony.
The second is to get Gasol Spurs.
The third is the Thunder team who got Carter.
Fourth is the grizzly bear
Fifth is the Clippers.
Sixth to tenth are the Warriors, Nets, Pacers, Bulls and Rockets.
The Lakers are ranked behind the Rockets.
The Lakers and Rockets are two completely opposite teams. The Rockets are really young, and the combination of James Harden and Chris Bosh is fascinating.
In short, after the disbandment of the Lakers and Heat, NBA teams have gone crazy this summer, making crazy reinforcements and looking for opportunities to win the championship.
On July 10, the Clippers completed a three-way trade. The Los Angeles Clippers traded their 2016 second-round pick to the Milwaukee Bucks. The Los Angeles Clippers traded Eric Bledsoe and Caron Butler. To the Phoenix Suns, the Milwaukee Bucks traded J.J. Redick to the Los Angeles Clippers, the Phoenix Suns traded Jared Dudley to the Los Angeles Clippers, and the Phoenix Suns traded a 2014 second-round pick to Milwaukee Bucks.
The Clippers signed Darren Collison on the same day.
On the same day, the Houston Rockets traded Thomas Robinson to the Portland Trail Blazers in exchange for Kostas Papanikolaou, Marko Todorovic, a 2015 second-round pick and a 2017 No. Second round pick.
Still on this day.
The Pistons signed Josh Smith.
The Bulls signed Mike Dunleavy and Richard Hamilton.
The Bobcats signed Al Jefferson.
The Hawks signed Millsap.
Still on this day.
The Denver Nuggets traded Andre Iguodala to the Golden State Warriors in a three-team deal that traded cash and a 2018 second-round pick to the Utah Jazz. Golden State Warriors trade 2018 second-round pick to Denver Nuggets, Andris Biedrish, Richard Jefferson, 2014 first-round pick Brendan Rush , a 2016 second-round pick, a 2017 first-round pick and a 2017 second-round pick were traded to the Utah Jazz. The Utah Jazz traded Randy Foye to the Denver Nuggets. The Utah Jazz traded Randy Foye to the Denver Nuggets. Kevin Murphy traded to Golden State Warriors.
July 10, 2013, was absolutely crazy.
Especially the trade in which the Warriors acquired Iguodala almost set the entire NBA on fire.
Almost instantly, the Golden State Warriors' championship odds surged to fifth in the NBA.
It was also on this day that the Thunder, another favorite to win the championship, also made a move.
The Milwaukee Bucks traded this year's No. 15 pick Adams to the Oklahoma City Thunder, and the Minnesota Timberwolves traded Luke Rinour and a 2014 second-round pick to the Milwaukee Bucks and the Oklahoma City Thunder. The team traded cash to the Milwaukee Bucks, and the Oklahoma City Thunder traded Kevin Martin and cash to the Minnesota Timberwolves.
After the Thunder got Carter, the presence of Kevin Martin was very strange. In the end, they sent Kevin Martin away in exchange for rookie center Adams.
The dazzling trade information on July 10 really turned the NBA fans show upside down.
I thought this day would be the craziest day in the NBA free market, but soon everyone was wrong.
July 12th.
It's an absolute nightmare for Celtic fans.
The Boston Celtics sent Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce, Jason Terry, and DJ White to the Nets, receiving a 2017 first-round pick and a 2017 second-round pick from the Nets. A 2016 first-round pick, a 2017 first-round pick and a 2018 first-round pick and a bunch of other picks.
Don't let it be said that Celtics fans were fooled when this trade happened.
Even Garnett and Pierce themselves were dumbfounded.
"Paul, am I dreaming?"
"Oh my God!"
On this day, the entire NBA was stunned by the viciousness of Celtics general manager Danny Ainge.
Even Du Kang, who traveled around China with Kobe, Maizi, Oden, Ebanks, Nash and others, was scared.
"Danny Ainge, this is too..."
For a moment, Kobe felt like he was in the Lakers. The boss was Jim Shu and the head coach was Coach D. It was great.
Those are Pierce and Garnett!
"This is the NBA, most of it is business."
"Coach Xiao Du means, except for the Lakers?"
Du Kang smiled.
"Neither Jim nor I know how to do business."
After Du Kang finished speaking, Yao Ming, Kobe, Maizi and Nash all laughed.
"Coach, let me buy you some vegetable pancakes. The vegetable pancakes here are very delicious."
Just when everyone was shocked by Garnett's deal, Oden spoke fluent Mandarin with a pure Shandong accent, which scared Kobe and the others to their wits' end. Even Yao Ming was dumbfounded for a moment.
"Go ahead."
Du Kang smiled.
Then.
Auden ran over and bargained with the vendor.
Damn it!
Du Kang's trip to China with the Lakers and his team was broadcast live on CCTV.
There were a bunch of reporters behind him.
Seeing Oden bargaining for vegetable pancakes in such fluent Shandong dialect, the Chinese reporters behind him were all frightened.
"Coach Xiao Du is from Shendu, so if you want to teach, you must speak in Shendu dialect!"
"Where did you get this taste of mountain stubble?"
Du Kang's trip to China caused a huge sensation in the country.
From south to north, it doesn't end until the capital.
"Coach Xiao Du, didn't you climb the Great Wall today? Why did you go to see the flag raising? Do they understand?"
Facing Teacher Zhang's question, Du Kang smiled and said nothing.
Flag raising ceremony scene.
An old black man, with a military salute that was no worse than that of a member of the etiquette team, sang along with the national anthem.
"stand up!
Don’t want to…”
Damn it! ! ! !
After Lakers center Oden used Shandong dialect to bargain for vegetable pancakes.
The video of Lakers forward Ebanks devoutly watching the flag-raising and singing the national anthem in the square once again hit Weibo and the Chinese Internet.
"What is influence? This is influence!"
"Coach Xiao Du is invincible!!!"
For a time, the popularity of Oden and Ebanks in China skyrocketed, catching up with Nash, Kobe, Maizi and other NBA superstars who followed Du Kang.
Du Kang is still traveling in China.
As for the United States, there is already a huge quarrel over Garnett's deal.
The most active among them is O'Neal.
Garnett only said in front of him last season that the Celtics would not trade him. He and the Celtics explained what loyalty is in the NBA!
"Hahahaha, loyalty has hurt KG. I think he doesn't want to go to the Nets now. I think he definitely wants to go to Coach D now and want revenge!"
"Hey, KG, Paul, let me give you a note. You should also buy out your contract and go to the Lakers. You and Coach D will form a loser alliance. This season, you will definitely be able to laugh the Celtics and Danny Ainge to death! "
This summer, Coach D and the Lakers made messy reinforcements, plus the Celtics traded Garnett. These things made O'Neal so happy to see.
This summer, he even felt that he was the chosen one.
"Hahahaha, I can't wait for the new season to start!!!"
It's only July, and O'Neal is already eagerly looking forward to the start of the new season.
And Du Kang is still playing.
However, Hamm, as the Lakers assistant coach, couldn't be happier.
Became the head coach of the team's summer league for the first time.
He took the Lakers' four rookies and was beaten wildly in the summer league.
They were all psychologically affected.
His three-guard formation made his Summer League colleagues laugh like crazy.
"Darwin, after seeing you, I feel even more how great Coach D is. Can someone like you be Coach D's first assistant coach? Hahahaha..."
Ham is confused.
"Why can Coach D be able to play with five backs, but I can't play with three backs?"
It's October.
The new NBA season is finally about to begin.
Du Kang also returned to the United States.
Lakers training camp has begun.
And the preseason is about to start.
"Ding, do you want to use the Knee of Steel on Amare Stoudemire?"
"yes."
"Ding, your player Amare Stoudemire uses steel knees, and the knee durability is adjusted to 85. Your player Stoudemire's athletic ability is restored, and his ability value is adjusted to 90. Please check it."
Los Angeles training facility.
"Amar, is your knee healed?"
"The doctor said it's almost done."
"Then, you'll start all preseason games."
…
…
"What? In the preseason game between the Lakers and Clippers, Coach D asked you to start?!"
"No, Coach D said, let me start all preseason games. I know what he means. He thinks my knee has recovered well and wants to keep me. But, this is impossible. Coach D is great, but the Lakers are not. The team I need."
…
…
On October 23, 2013, the Lakers played all eight preseason games.
Clippers, Kings, Warriors, Nets, Celtics, Mavericks, Rockets, Spurs.
In eight games, the Lakers won two and lost six against the Celtics and Kings.
But in eight games, the whole world was shocked by the performance of one player!
TNT, three Tiantuan players were discussing Stoudemire crazily.
"There is no doubt that Amar is back. The Amar who can fly and escape and shoot accurately is back!"
"I think the battle for the No. 1 power forward in the NBA next season needs to include Amar's name!"
"In eight games, he averaged 33 minutes per game, 30.5 points and 10.5 rebounds per game, and shot 56% from the field. This is a crazy stat!!!"
"You know, the rules of the NBA game have changed!!!"
"Coach D, you have brought us another superstar!"
"Charles, let me remind you, Amal said that his doctor was not Coach D. He came back, but he was not brought back by Coach D!"
…
…
Watching TNT on TV.
Carlisle didn't expect Stoudemire's performance in the preseason to be so good.
Not only the statistics are excellent, but the performance is also outstanding. When playing against the Warriors, he did not fall behind against Yi Jianlian. When playing against the Spurs, he was a crazy output against Duncan.
too strong!
Stoudemire, recovered!
"Mark...what to do now?"
"Coach D wants Dirk, this is impossible!!!"
Just then, Nowitzki walked in.
"Mark, I do!"
Carlisle was dumbfounded.
This is definitely a crazier deal than Garnett's deal! ! ! !
Coach D is a lunatic!
…
…
Los Angeles.
"Steve, I'll give you a perfect ending."
"Coach...thank you."
Nash is very excited now, and he doesn't know how to thank the coach.
This is really the most perfect farewell...
Some people died, but not completely...
