Chapter 434: Two Great Curses! Prove in the Name of SF!

There are many veterans who want to join the Knicks. After all, the combination of Lin Yi and Paul is too young, and people are optimistic that they can become a new OK combination.

Among the many veterans, Lin Yi found a very familiar name at a glance: Tracy McGrady.

The former four blacksmiths are now getting old and retreating. Only Carter is the same as before, and the music festival of the volute is still going on... It is really embarrassing.

However, McGrady should have chosen the basic salary to join the Eagles. Lin Yi still underestimated the power of the invitation he sent out now. In McGrady's eyes, it is also a basic salary. Why not choose the Knicks?

McGrady can play multiple positions on the court. He averaged 8+3+3 in the Pistons last season. Now he is no longer the scoring leader of the past. Do you want to give it to Maddie?

Lin Yi first abandoned his feelings and analyzed the Knicks lineup rationally. As he wants to play the 3rd position in the new season, the Knicks actually have sufficient personnel reserves at the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd positions, so the Knicks In the free agency market, more veterans from inside are considered.

But here comes the problem. At present, there are no good insiders in the free agent market. During this period, there is a serious shortage of high-quality insiders in the NBA.

"Is it feasible to let McGrady swing in the third and fourth positions?"

Lin Yi remembered that McGrady used to play the fourth position during the Fire Bull War before, defending against Nowitzki. McGrady has height, and he doesn’t need to move so fast to play the fourth position. As for the inside line, there are boxers and Bai Guarding the side.

In terms of cost performance, it won't be too bad to give McGrady a basic salary for the Knicks. After all, the Knicks' lineup has basically been completed.

With the announcement of the new season's schedule, all the teams feel insane... What five days and four games, back to back is really tormenting!

This is the reason for making up the fifteenth man, because the main topic of the Knicks' new season is rotation.

The Knicks don't need McGrady to play every game, and don't worry about his potential injury. If it doesn't work, the Knicks can lay off and replace them. Anyway, Dolan has plenty of money.

So Lin Yi thinks that it is feasible to sign McGrady. Now McGrady has lost the arrogance of the past, otherwise he would not come to the Knicks to ask for a basic salary.

But in this way, Knicks has collected two major curses...

Paul, who couldn't touch the floor of the Western Conference Finals, couldn't pass the first round of the lone star McGrady.

You know, McGrady has reached the second round once in his career so far, and that time he was still in the hospital bed.

Is it really going to be a wave of "my fate is up to me?"

Lin Yi shivered, he was not Ao Tiansang, but aside from off-court factors, there was nothing wrong with signing McGrady.

"That's it! If this season goes to the street, you can still blame Paul and McGrady!" Lin Yi thought.

Of course, he won't really throw the pot out, it's just a joke.

So the Knicks signed McGrady with a one-year veteran's basic salary. When he learned that the Knicks were willing to give him a contract, McGrady was relieved. Now he really has no choice, and the Knicks are the best choice.

So far, the Knicks have also submitted the team's 15-man roster for the new season to the league. What makes the league staff curious is, small forward Lin Yi?

The league staff also specially called to ask the Knicks if they made a mistake, but the Knicks replied, yes, Lin Yi is going to play small forward in the new season!

As a result, as soon as the news broke that Lin Yi was going to play small forward in the new season, he once again dominated the headlines of major websites in China and the United States! Even the news that his partner Alexander Wang managed to get Megan Fox could not catch him!

221 cm small forward, Lin Yijun, are you serious?

Alexander Wang burst into tears, "Boss, I managed to catch up with Megan, but you..."

Stern feels that this shrinking season is not as sluggish as he imagined!

Because it seems that as long as Lin Yi exists,

The topic never ends the same.

The "Anti-Lin League" panicked now. Lin Yi is going to play small forward in the new season, so how will the Knicks play? After Paul joins, will the Knicks have any weird routines?

Of course, there are also many experts who believe that Lin Yi, a small forward, is a fake small forward who just switched positions with his teammates who originally played small forward...

However, as the Knicks' in-team training video on the media open day leaked out, the experts found themselves heartbroken again!

Because Lin Yi is really going to play small forward, what kind of fake small forward is this, Lin Yi is really a small forward!

You must know that if the Knicks are replaced by Motel, there will be three seven-foot strong men present at the same time! At this height, I ask you if you are afraid!

In the summer, Lin Yi completed a wave of small weight gain. The weight of the new season has reached 120.5 kg. This is the weight that Lin Yi thinks is most suitable for him. Yi's physical measurement data...

To tell the truth, Mark Duber found that there seem to be not many people in the league who are faster than Lin Yi at the small forward position!

And more importantly, Lin Yi has height and weight!

So on the media day, apart from taking makeup photos, what the media were most curious about was why Lin Yi wanted to play small forward in the new season.

"Because I found it difficult for me to match up with the opponent's inside players in the game, so instead of letting the opponent work hard to switch defenses, I might as well go directly to their wing players." Lin Yi said sincerely.

"Anti-Forest Alliance": Peat, don't take you to play like this!

In fact, the big reason why Lin Yi changed to small forward is that he has to find a way to defend the MVP. Lin Yi will not wait for himself to be banned from his hero pool by the NBA masters. He has already discussed with his teammates in the new season. Now, he will attack Big O Robertson's triple-double record.

As for Paul's emotions, Lin Yi has already appeased me with 100 fried chicken, of course, after the end of the season.

In addition, after Gallinari went to New Orleans, Lin Yi also reminded the "Second Battalion Commander" to remember to open a grilled wing shop in New Orleans, otherwise Lin Yi would feel weird every time he went to New Orleans for an away game.

"Lin, what do you think the Knicks' goal for the new season is?" The reporters continued to ask.

"Strive to defend the title on the premise of reaching the playoffs!"

Lin Yi knew that the media was waiting for him here, so he planted the flag generously. As for Lin Yi, he would not panic if he failed to defend his title, because he used the word "strive" instead of certain or certain.

Lin Yi is still quite confident about defending the title, because the Knicks' lineup in the new season is stronger than last season. The starting lineup is Paul, Green, himself, Big Mo, boxing champion, and there are Big Heart, Clay, Little Chandler, and Motel on the bench. ,White border......

To be reasonable, the Knicks' substitutes seem to be better than the starters of some weak teams.

The lover Gallinari left, but D'Antoni discovered that this rookie named Klay Thompson seemed to have something!

Clay's shooting stability is extremely high. In Lin Yi's rookie season in his previous life, Clay made 100+ three-pointers with a 40% shooting rate. In the Knicks, he can throw three-pointers as you like, and Clay is even more comfortable.

In the shooting competition, he was so crazy that even Green felt inferior to him, and Green and Clay's defenses were very good, coupled with the careful teaching of Tony Allen, the champion hero, he played against the Knicks in the new season. The shooting guards should prepare their tissues first!

Not to mention Paul, D'Antoni's true love for point guards is exactly the same as Lin Yi remembers, and D'Antoni's advice to Paul is similar to what he gave Paul: Increase singles and give Lin Yi the organization.

"Chris, what's the point of assists? It's not like you haven't won the assists title. Scoring is king!" Lin Yi patted Paul on the shoulder. Paul was very frustrated. Now I don't know that he joined the Knicks In the end is good or bad.

What kind of assists do you want, this kind of garbage data, of course I will come to collect it! Lin Yi thought happily.

...

On the 15th, the Knicks' team training ended, and D'Antoni gave the players two days off. On the 18th and 22nd, the Knicks will play two preseason games with the Nets.

The new season's schedule is too painful, and D'Antoni has adjusted many training days in the season to rest days.

McGrady, who had just arrived at the Knicks, planned to impress the coach with hard training, but Lin Yi patted the sleepy-eyed McGrady on the back, "Tracey, you should paddle...... your current I'm not as old as I was when I was young, and I don't want to see you cheering us on the hospital bed."

Maddie: "..."

The shortened season, in fact, is more advantageous for the young team. The Heat's ability to win the championship this season in their previous life has a lot to do with their youth.

And the Thunder's ability to rush out of the West has something to do with their youth.

On the 17th, the crazy signings, transactions, and transfers of the NBA came to an end for the time being.

Because the new NBA season has begun!
