Chapter 1592 1591. The National Team Roster Is Released
July 15th is the first rest day after the national team gathered for 10 days. Within the BJ urban area, the players can move around freely. Of course, there are many restrictions.
Liu Mang did not go to continue training immediately. Coach Kruger came. Liu Mang's mother, Levia and little Loli took little Jimmy to visit the imperial capital. Liu Mang and Coach Kruger also A lot to discuss.
Coach Kruger also wanted little Jimmy to live back home, but he just needed someone to confirm the idea. After Liu Mang said this, he decided and sent an email to his old club, asking for a full sports scholarship.
It’s not that Coach Kruger is stingy about the scholarship, but for an athlete, it is an honor to receive a full scholarship to college.
Liu Mang's father went to play with his grandchildren after Liu Mang arrived. Liu Mang and Coach Kruger began to discuss the current league situation.
It has been half a month since the free market started, and many major things have happened.
Garnett is determined to leave the team. According to rumors, Garnett is negotiating with the Bulls about a sign-and-trade, or else he will directly sign with another team.
Garnett's bound feet are long and smelly...
The soap opera from last summer to now continues.
The Lakers used Vladimir Radmanovic to reach a deal with the Charlotte Bobcats, getting the Bobcats' Adam Morrison and a future highly protected second-round pick, which is basically equivalent to one for one.
While McGrady, Kwame Brown, and Joe Johnson are at their peak, the Raptors, who are aiming for a championship, are the most active!
Replacing Milicic with Tracy McGrady + Kwame Brown, in the short term, the Raptors' strength has increased instead of falling.
It's just that McGrady is already 29 years old, and it's hard to say how many years he can have at his peak. Kwame Brown is not as comprehensive as Milicic.
However, McGrady, who has not experienced a devastating back injury caused by a teammate, can theoretically survive for a few more years. McGrady's style of play is not the previous style of putting everything on his shoulders, but focuses on organizing offense. Maintaining the peak period until the age of thirty-two or thirteen is probably not a big problem.
After that...it will probably be difficult.
Milicic, who was born in June 1985, is only 24 years old and represents a 10-year future.
It's the best return the Raptors have gotten from teams they've asked about that have the leverage they like.
At the very least, no one thinks that the Eagles took advantage. The Eagles gave away one first team and one third team for another team. It doesn't look like they are taking advantage, but they are taking advantage of their age. Youth is the biggest asset.
The Raptors eliminated the crisis within the team and did not suffer a loss. On the contrary, in the short term of the next three years, the Raptors will take advantage.
Just three years later, Milicic is now a double first-team player...
But these three years are the Raptors’ opportunity!
On July 8, the Raptors sent TJ Ford in exchange for Steve Blake and a second-round pick.
This is just the beginning. Just three days ago, on July 12, the Raptors and the Spurs reached a deal, trading Richard Jefferson with the Spurs in exchange for Beno Udrih and Sean - Battier and a top-25 protected first-round pick.
The Spurs are just piss-poor. No matter which star wants to change teams, they will try to do it. This time, they really succeeded. The key is that they can really eat it!
Popovich has always liked Richard Jefferson. He used Battier and substitute pitchers to exchange for a physical small forward who can average 20+ points per game and play first-class defense, making up for the loss of Artest last year. Ste's regret.
However, this transaction made Liu Mang and Coach Kruger pay more attention to the Raptors!
Joe Johnson, McGrady, and Kwame Brown form the core lineup. The point guards are two white men who are stable and capable of shooting. Both of them hit over 40% of their fixed-point three-point shooting percentages. With McGrady as the core organizer, Bray Grams and Udrih can space the floor very well.
Without Liu Mang, there is still contemporary Jordan to share the offensive tasks for Tracy McGrady.
Although Bargnani has no sense of presence, his shooting is very strong. Except for his running position, he is not much different from Lewis. He can also improve to average 20+ per game in the future, and he is still on a rookie contract...
And if Battier is used as a power forward, the Raptors' small lineup is also very powerful. Liu Mang feels that the Raptors may be in more trouble than this past season!
The lineup is more flexible, and the three major stars are at their peak!
There is also a very strange news...
Josh Childress rejected the 4-year, 22 million euro contract extension offered by the 76ers and went to Europe to get a 3-year, 30 million euro contract...
People give up their European salaries to pursue their dreams in the NBA. Childress just finished his rookie contract and went to Europe to make money.
The big trades are the one between the Spurs and the Raptors, and there are many small trades and free agent changes, but except for Childress's weird behavior, the rest are not in the eyes of the Hawks.
Other teams are taking action, and coaches Liu Mang and Kruger are focusing on their own teams.
Liu Mang was a little confused, why has there been no movement from his team?
The Eagles now have 13 players on hand and look pretty good.
The back line is very sufficient, with the four main players Liu Mang, Wade, Jason Terry, Rondo, and two rookies, Dragic and Courtney Lee.
The inside line is also okay, with Marion, Scola, Milicic, Gortat, Gasol and the rookie DeAndre Jordan.
But there is only one person at the small forward position.
Coach Kruger gave up when Liu Mang raised a question: "Ace, don't worry, something surprising will happen."
surprise?
Liu Mang really didn't know what the team was thinking this time, but seeing Coach Kruger's confident look, Liu Mang could only believe it.
But even if there are surprises at the small forward position, the structure inside is a bit troublesome.
With Kwame Brown gone, Jordan's talent must be explored.
Thinking of the all-round weakened version of Jordan's talent compared to Kwame Brown, Liu Mang thought he would make do with it.
DeAndre Jordan is the first-defense player with the worst defensive efficiency Liu Mang has ever seen, and the two seasons when DeAndre Jordan entered the first defense were very abrupt. In the seasons before and after those two seasons, DeAndre Jordan was It has nothing to do with the All-Defensive team, but he just made the first defense.
Liu Mang feels that maybe seven or eight years from now, there will really be no truly outstanding defensive players at the center position. The All-NBA Team and the All-Defensive Team both have a fixed center position, thus creating two of the best players in history. Double first team players Noah and DeAndre Jordan...
…
Coach Kruger left after having lunch at Liu Mang's house.
Liu Mang looked at the back of Coach Kruger leaving with little Jimmy. Today...he really didn't talk about anything. Coach Kruger looked mysterious, and most of what he said was to tell Liu Mang to leave. Worry.
Liu Mang probably felt the same feeling that the little blacksmith had when he lost his sister-in-law, and he hated it but couldn't hate it. Liu Mang knew that Coach Kruger wouldn't harm him, but that feeling really made his heart itch!
…
…
After a day's rest, Liu Mang continued his second 10-day training plan after returning to the team.
Liu Mang put aside his distracting thoughts about the club and devoted himself to the training of the national team.
For a top professional player, a little change in the body will have a big impact on the game. Maybe because he rested for half a month before, Liu Mang didn't feel much about the strength of his joints, but It is precisely because of this that Liu Mang can directly skip the adaptation part. These 10 days are state recovery training. After regaining the state, he can directly adapt to the little changes.
This is why Liu Mang eats attribute fruits during this time before every national team game.
The eight days of training passed in a flash, and Liu Mang slowly regained the physical feeling he had during the season.
On the 23rd, the second phase of the national team's training session ended. On the 24th, something cruel happened.
Some players left the training ground in tears, some players left directly, and some players were confused. At their age, it will be difficult for them to have the opportunity to enter the national team again in the future...
On this day, eight players left!
Liu Mang didn't have much reaction to this. Tracy McGrady was gone, and the few CBA players he wasn't familiar with even though they were compatriots didn't have much feeling.
Liu Mang looked at the remaining teammates, including himself, there were 7 outsiders and 5 insideers.
In addition to him on the outside, there are Liu Wei, Sun Yue, Zhu Fangyu, Li Nan, Wang Shipeng, and Zhang Qingpeng.
On the inside, there are three American players, Yao Ming, Wang Zhizhi, and Yi Jianlian, as well as Du Feng, a veteran, and Wang Lei, a short newcomer who is 2.03 meters tall.
Looking at the evaluation of his teammates' abilities after the two rounds of training sessions, Liu Mang was quite satisfied.
Li Nan was once again selected into the national team as a veteran player, and Liu Mang was quite surprised. Not to mention his strength, there is always a sense of security when there are players of the older generation.
Anyway, with Liu Mang, Sun Yue, Zhu Fangyu, Wang Shipeng and others, Liu Wei and Li Nan will not have much playing time.
"Evaluation of the Chinese Men's National Basketball Team's international performance:
Liu Wei, Ability Evaluation 75 (79),
Sun Yue, ability evaluation 80,
Zhu Fangyu, ability evaluation 74 (80),
Li Nan, ability evaluation 61 (70),
Wang Shipeng, ability evaluation 75 (82),
Zhang Qingpeng, Ability Evaluation 73(79),
Yao Ming, ability evaluation 98,
Wang Zhizhi, ability evaluation 84,
Yi Jianlian, ability evaluation 89,
Wang Lei, ability evaluation 71 (76),
Du Feng, ability evaluation 77 (79)"
Liu Mang looked at the ability evaluation in brackets after the buff improvement of his "Light of the Country", and felt quite satisfied. The most satisfied among them was Sun Yue!
Although Sun Yue didn't play well with the Rockets, he was much better than the year he played with the Lakers. He played in at least 40 games, which was a lot better than before! Moreover, Sun Yue will enter the NBA a year early. The Rockets joining the Rockets at the age of 21 and a half are generally more malleable than the Lakers when he joined the Lakers at the age of 22 and a half.
It's just that Sun Yue can no longer enjoy the buff of National Light.
Everyone else has been upgraded to the NBA's 60 ability evaluation under this buff and converted to the ability evaluation in the international arena. Since the CBA rules are more similar to those of FIBA, they also often play national team games. Although the improved ability evaluation The unevenness is related to personal playing style. For example, Wang Shipeng is better than Sun Yue after promotion. On the contrary, Sun Yue's ability evaluation in the NBA is just 60. His playing style is very suitable for the international arena. He can do everything directly. The evaluation is 80, especially for defense. Sun Yue's defense is really good, but Shi Ye is also fate. In the evaluation of his ability under the buff of National People's Light, Sun Yue was surpassed by Zhu Fangyu and Wang Shipeng, two weaker players than him.
But overall Liu Mang is very satisfied, it is much better than two years ago!
Especially Yi Jianlian, he is worthy of being an international competition leader who averaged 20+10 points per game in the World Championships in 2010 in the original time and space!
Liu Mang didn't know whether it was his own misunderstanding or whether it was really starting to have an effect when he helped the national team win the World Championship two years ago. He felt that even without the buff of National Light, the strength of the national team teammates was stronger than in the original time and space. !
Liu Mang hopes it will be the latter. If he helps the national team achieve good results, it will stimulate the motivation of domestic basketball players and allow domestic basketball to develop better... Liu Mang feels that he seems to be responsible for things that his beauty should not bear. pressure!
But Liu Mang likes this kind of pressure. Looking at the progress of his teammates on the national team, Liu Mang feels that the future is not as grim as he imagined. As long as he works hard and leads more young children to work harder, maybe the country The future of the team will not be as miserable as before, it will only get better and better!
