Four Hundred and Forty-One. Are You Not Afraid of Being Beaten to Death when You Go Out?

Paul's last season was the first year of his 3+1 contract that was renewed in advance in 2008, but he was traded away, a year earlier than in the original time and space.

The Hornets have been managed by the league, this transaction is executed by the general manager alone, and the league executives who are the owner of the managed team are very satisfied with this transaction.

Perhaps David Stern wants the Knicks better than Knicks owner James Dolan.

However, this deal of the Hornets did make the current general manager of the Hornets, David Griffin, well-received. risk.

Because for the Hornets, which doesn’t even have an owner, the record is second. The main thing is to save money and let the buyers see the future. Draft picks and potential rookies are the future!

The Hornets even plan to sell David West, but it is a pity that there are too many big-name free agents this summer, and David West can't sell such a high-quality contract.

And no matter what the Knicks do, the media and fans will spray it first.

Sun Ce saw that the Knicks were crazy. Paul had just suffered a serious knee injury and was a short player. He felt that the Knicks boss was messing up again.

Sun Ce knows that Paul is still awesome after being injured, and the head coach is D'Antoni...running and bombing! In New York again, 58 is on fire!

But what hurts him now is not the combination of Paul + Stoudemire, but...

Sun Ce originally planned to use "You will never touch the floor of the Western Conference Finals without Harden" as a trash talk in the future. The idea of ​​spraying 58 fell through!

It has nothing to do with Paul not being able to touch the floor of the Western Conference Finals, because he is no longer in the Western Conference.

Regarding the deal itself, Sun Ce mourned for James for a second. As soon as he formed the Big Three, the Eastern Conference immediately came with a team that could cause them big troubles at least in the first year.

He remembered that this season, Stoudemire was in the top five MVPs before the Knicks traded to Anthony... plus Paul, who became a floor player after a major injury but was still a double first team.

Paul + Stoudemire, I don't know how many times stronger than Anthony + Stoudemire!

Most role players don't pick teams. The Knicks also sent away a few players in the deal with the Hornets. Now there is still room for tens of thousands of dollars, and they have started to raise prices in the free market again.

Sun Ce feels that the NBA is getting more and more interesting.

Anyway, the firepower is now on James, and it will be in the next few years. He can develop wretchedly here... sneakily engage in a Western Conference finals?

If nothing else, the Spurs should be able to compete with the Lakers and Mavericks for the first place in the regular season this season, but if they meet in the playoffs, Sun Ce feels that his side is worthwhile.

The Thunder should continue to make great strides next season. Harden also played well in the second year. Sun Ce remembers being the best sixth man level, which may be similar to his own strength.

It depends on the key ball performance and the most important defense in the playoffs!

It's fine if you don't meet the Mavericks before the Western Conference finals. The Lakers... are also very difficult to deal with. From Sun Ce's point of view, in the original time and space, apart from the Mavericks, there is really no other team in the West that can overwhelm the Lakers.

Then, as the deal continued to ferment, WOJ broke the news that the Knicks had prepared for both hands. The first goal was to use Wilson Chandler and Gallinari as the core role player lineup to attract two superstars.

The goal was only half accomplished, but hopes of attracting the biggest fish, James, were dashed.

Then execute the second goal.

However, half of the first goal was accomplished. The empty-handed white wolf got Stoudemire, and the rest was much easier to operate.

These chips used to trade Paul were originally intended to be used to trade James or Anthony.

If James wants to leave something for his home team, the Knicks can provide it, but James went directly to the Heat, and the Knicks' goal became Anthony.

If Anthony wants to jump out of the contract in the summer of 2011 and does not want to renew the contract, forcing the Rockets to trade him, the Knicks can also trade Anthony with the Rockets.

But Anthony made a godlike decision. He first rejected the Rockets' early contract extension, but then implemented his player option for the 2011-2012 season a year in advance.

This operation... makes people feel very confused. Anyway, Sun Ce didn't understand when he saw WOJ broke the news.

However, from Anthony's 4+1 contract extension with the Nuggets that year, it can be seen that his thinking is very different from other players.

In the end, an offer was made to Joe Johnson, but Joe Johnson didn't even get it.

These people are gone, the Knicks can only choose to gamble and trade Paul back.

...

Another two nights passed, and the free market lasted only 10 days from igniting the fuse to detonating the offseason, to Paul entering New York, and then to being silent again.

On the morning of the 18th, Sun Ce had already reported at the Wukesong Gymnasium, the temporary base of the national team. After the physical examination and health check, he would go to Tianjin next door for a training camp.

Sun Ce looked at the Wukesong Gymnasium, which was comparable to an NBA arena, and thought that he would be very handsome if he could train here.

But there are concerts and various activities here every now and then, so I can borrow a day to report here, and renting the arena is extremely expensive.

Yao Ming helped Sun Ce deal with all the troublesome things. As the leader of Chinese basketball in the future, Yao Ming has accumulated a lot of resources since 2008. After retiring, he can take the top position logically.

"Oh, Noah, I have been waiting for you for a long time. I heard that you have been training. I really want to go to Chengdu to watch your training, but I am afraid that it will affect you..." Deng Huade was very enthusiastic after seeing Sun Ce.

Deng Huade's politeness, Sun Ce sounds quite comfortable, but this fat man's coaching ability... Sun Ce remembers that his command is purely based on roaring, and tactics rely on Wang Zhizhi...

But that's fine too.

The players who came to report today are actually Sun Ce and Yao Ming, and the others have already gone to Tianjin.

As for why not directly arrange the temporary residence in Tianjin, Sun Ce got a very convincing answer from Yao Ming - the national conditions.

The first thing after the report is the physical examination.

It is not a test of physical fitness, but basic information, speed, strength... Sun Ce does not need a physical test, the best rookie in the NBA, there are many things that can be avoided.

Looking at the height and weight scales...

Sun Ce said, "Coach, I measured my height and weight a few days ago, so I'll tell you directly."

"Uh... OK." Deng Huade did not refuse.

Because today's physical test and health check are secondary, they are just going through the motions. The main thing is the press conference at 10 o'clock, announcing Yao Ming's return to the national team and Sun Ce officially joining the national team.

After getting the answer, Sun Ce first wrote down the weight he supported when he came out of the hotel in the morning.

88 kg, I have gained a lot of weight this time, and the training for this period of time has reduced the recent fat, which is still a bit heavier than the 86 kg at the end of the season.

This is related to the recent diet. The intake of high-calorie + high-protein nutrition not only ensures Sun Ce's calorie consumption, but also allows him to use crazy training to increase muscle.

For subsequent high protein intake, nutritionists, physiotherapists, and trainers will comprehensively consider Sun Ce's physical condition, technical stability and other aspects to consider how much muscle to improve.

When filling in his height, Sun Ce was very hesitant. He hadn’t measured his height for a long time, and he didn’t look at the basic information of the system, because the basic information contained the most basic things, such as height, weight, arm span, nationality, occupation, etc. wait.

After hesitating for a moment, Sun Ce gritted his teeth and filled in 192 in the space between height and centimeters...

Yao Ming's friend, Shanghai team coach, former Rockets assistant coach, and current Chinese men's basketball coach Bob Deng Huade looked at Sun Ce and wrote a height of 192 cm and a wingspan of 215 cm... Are you kidding me?

As a former NBA assistant coach, Deng Huade has heard some legends about height in the NBA in the past year, and he is quite speechless. He doesn't know what to say, so he can only give Sun Ce a thumbs up!

Anyway, as long as Sun Ce is good, even if he has a height of 162 cm and a wingspan of 251 cm, he will be fine.

It's just that Deng Huade was curious about the expressions of those reporters at the press conference...

...

...

Yao Ming officially returns and Sun Ce officially joins!

Since the Football World Cup is over, domestic sports attention is focused on the Basketball World Championships, which is about to start in more than a month.

The selection of national basketball players is naturally the focus of attention.

Among them, Yao Ming and Sun Ce, two NBA stars who have not yet returned to the team, have attracted the most attention.

Seeing the dense crowd of reporters filling the interview hall of Wukesong, Sun Ce felt very troublesome... This group of people seemed to have a lot of questions to ask, and these reporters had completely different faces at home and abroad.

It is not terrible to act kindly to others in foreign countries, but it is not terrible to be aggressive in the domestic nest, just to be angry.

The most disgusting thing is that they often have poisonous milk!

But today is quite normal. After the press conference started, the questions raised by the reporters were relatively logical...

The main reason is that the target of the reporter's question is different, and the question sounds different.

Some reporters asked questions and called Yao Ming the best center in the world... This Sun Ce felt that there was nothing wrong with it. Apart from Pau Gasol, there are not many players who can deal with Yao Ming in the international arena.

And this year... my sister-in-law didn't participate in the World Championships!

My sister-in-law lost weight, Nowitzki didn't appear in the group stage of the German European Championships, ranked last in the wild card competition, and failed to enter the World Championships.

Yao Ming really feels like the world's No. 1 center in this World Championships. The inside situation that Yao Ming encounters is a bit like that in the Athens Olympics.

Sun Ce feels that it still depends on the person. No matter how exaggerated the topic is, even if he asks who is better among Chamberlain, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar or Yao Ming, Sun Ce can say Yao Ming, but another person...

But... the press conference was on and on, and he felt that the questions asked by the reporter started to go off track...

A reporter asked: "Noah, I heard that you just finished the physical test, your height record is 192 cm, right?"

"How do you know?" Sun Ce remembered that he just wrote it out of conscience!

The reporter pointed to the back of Sun Ce. Sun Ce looked back and saw that there was actually an LED screen with two handsome photos on it. One was Yao Ming, with various basic information on Yao Ming. He was 226 cm tall and 220 cm long. Compared with his wingspan, Yao Ming is not short, but compared with his height.

The weight of 137 kg, compared with the peak of 146 kg, is now obviously more conducive to prolonging his career. According to Yao Ming, Duncan has also begun to lose weight this summer.

As for how Yao Ming became friends with a facial paralyzed... Could it be that they are attracted to each other by their warm smiles?

This is not the key point, the key point is another photo, which is of Sun Ce, with a height of 192 cm and a wingspan of 215 cm...

"This...that...uh..." Sun Ce's head was still running wildly, there it is! Sun Ce nodded seriously and said, "Yes, I am 1.92 meters. You are too short for you to understand. In fact, 1.92 meters is my height. Those who are about the same height as me say how tall they are. I'm lying to you, bullying you for being too short to know what the world of 1.9 meters is like..."

Yao Ming, who was taking a slow sip of water during the interval of answering questions, choked so much that he spit out a mouthful of water and almost fell to the ground.

Deng Huade, who was next to him, was so scared that he quickly supported Yao Ming's chair and patted Yao Ming's back.

This is his club owner!

Why can Deng Huade be on the throne of the coach of the Chinese men's basketball team? Just something will happen!

Yao Ming calmed down, and said to Sun Ce speechlessly: "Little Overlord, you are so naughty, don't you worry about being beaten to death when you go out?"
