NBA: Back to 97, to be the Jagged Bishop

"Blind your dog eyes!"

"You, an Australian native dog, a cross between a kangaroo and a kangaroo, dare to hit me?"

"I'm going to pull out your teeth and stuff them back into your platypus mother's belly!"

Moko pointed at Bogut and cursed loudly, speaking perfect English.

Kongbu was dumbfounded. In his memory, Moko couldn't speak English. At most, he could only use simple phrases like F**K.

As a result, he is now scolding Bogut, and his scolding is clear-cut. Even the great writers here in the United States may not be as precise as Moko's scolding.

Kongbu wondered if Moko hired a teacher in China and learned these curse words. He even predicted that he would have a conflict with Bogut, so he learned some curse words against Australians.

Kongbu clicked his tongue in surprise. Among other things, Moko was really hot-tempered, but it was a pity that his strength was too weak. Otherwise, Kongbu would have really wanted to keep him around and cultivate him.

……

Bogut was stunned by the curse. He had never heard such curse words before.

After being confused and angry, he walked towards Moko, obviously intending to use his fists.

But Bogut still had some sense. He saw Kong Bu smiling on the sidelines.

This smile was not for me anyway, because I had no connection with Kong Bu, so it could only be for Moko.

Obviously there is a close relationship between Kongbu and Moko. If he beats up Moko, there is no guarantee that Kongbu will not punish him.

So Bogut didn't take action rashly, at least he didn't want to do it in front of so many people.

The best situation he envisioned in his mind was for Moko to strike first, and then he would passively fight back and beat Moko violently. There happened to be countless reporters and media on the sidelines, recording that he was just fighting back, so that Kongbu couldn't find him either. own trouble.

Unfortunately, Bogut's prediction of the situation was still wrong.

Seeing Bogut approaching in a menacing manner, Moko couldn't contain his fiery temper. He went up and punched Bogut in the head.

Because his strength is not very good, this punch will only hurt Bogut at most.

Bogut, who was in pain, felt that he had an opportunity to fight back. He was about to go forward and catch Moko, but Gortat, David Lee, and Ilyasova directly held him down and refused to give him any chance. His chances of getting close to Moko.

The three of them are all frontcourt players, and they are all big men over 205 centimeters tall. Even if Bogut is strong and strong, he can't break free under the hands of these three people.

Bogut was stunned and couldn't understand what was going on. Why were these people helping Moko when he was fighting with Moko?

In fact, on the first day of the training camp, Kongbu talked to six Bobcat newcomers and asked them to help Moko in the training camp.

For example, in daily training, we should teach Moko more experience. For example, in training games, we should pass more penalty kicks to Moko.

Of course, the six newcomers to the Bobcats had no reason not to agree to such a small request.

Because the Bobcats have so many new players on the team this year, even if they sell C.J. Miles, they still have nine new players.

When they heard that the three Nine-Finger Green players had been sent to play in the summer league, the remaining six people breathed a sigh of relief.

They did not go to the summer league, but were sent to the training camp by Kombu. Obviously Kombu valued them more.

Kongbu's regard is almost equivalent to giving them a guarantee for their careers. Now that Kongbu asks them to help with this little favor, of course they have to help.

After Gortat and the others held down Bogut, Paul, Granger and Luwei also ran up and stood beside Moko.

"Not only did you not apologize for maliciously hitting someone, but you also wanted to hit them? Andrew, do you think this is your Australian Barbarian Stadium?"

Paul glared at Bogut and angrily said that he knew how to accuse others from the moral high ground.

Throughout Paul's career, he has had conflicts with many people, but Paul has always been able to escape unscathed because he knows how to stand on the moral high ground.

"You don't want to hang out anymore, do you? How dare you cause trouble in the devil training camp?"

"Believe it or not, I will ban you tomorrow!"

After Luwei glanced at Kongbu, he became more courageous and caught Bogut and slapped him.

Granger was an honest man, with a boring face, a good boy who didn't cause trouble at all. He didn't have the nerve to say harsh words to Bogut.

"Andrew Bogut, there is a boxing ring in the training camp. How about we go up there and practice?"

Gortat, the Polish hammer with a Slavic appearance, spoke to Bogut with a Russian accent.

Not to mention Bogut, even people like Paul had goosebumps all over their bodies.

When Da Maozi speaks English, he seems to be able to pull out an AK47 and shoot at him at any time.

The Turkish Ilyasova actually looks quite handsome, but his style is extremely barbaric. Now he has begun to pinch Bogut, making him scream.

David Lee is also a good boy, a bit like Hill, and he will often play the role of peacemaker in the league in the future.

"Andrew, apologize to Moko, I think Moko will forgive you."

"Your current behavior is very dangerous and may ruin your career."

David Lee whispered advice in Bogut's ear.

Bogut is going to cry, are you guys blind?I'm the one who got beaten. You want me to apologize to him?

The key is that Ilyasova kept pinching him. He was held up by David Lee and Gortat and couldn't move. There was no way to stop Ilyasova.

The reporters taking pictures on the sidelines were extremely happy. Is there such a good thing?There wasn't much big news in the offseason, but recently except for O'Brien's transfer, there hasn't been much news.

Now, isn't the big news coming?

The No. [-] pick, Moko, led a group of people to beat Bogut, the No. [-] pick. Fans love to see this.

Seeing the ecstatic expressions of the reporters, Bogut knew that he could not go on spending any more. If Moko went crazy again and came up to take advantage of him, he would be even more embarrassed.

"I'm sorry, Moko."

Bogut quickly apologized, his voice was still low. He didn't want Moko to continue to attack him by using his low voice.

"Bah, you weakling!" "Be more honest in the NBA from now on. If you don't, I'll beat you every time I see you."

Moko didn't bother to tangle with Bogut.

Kongbu was amazed when he saw it. Not to mention, Moko looked like a big shot in the NBA. Unfortunately, his strength was too poor. He hadn’t started playing games officially yet, so no one knew Moko’s specific strength. Wait until The main match has begun, and after a few months, Moko may not have this style anymore.

……

This little episode can be regarded as providing a little fun for fans during the offseason.

However, the fun did not last long, because all parties in the alliance subsequently made many blockbuster transactions, and even Kongbu was frightened to see them.

The first was the Knicks. Thomas Sr.'s courage convinced Combs that they actually traded the bus.

They sent out the bus and made a three-way deal to get the No. [-] pick Howard from the Suns, and then got the old cat Mobley from the Rockets.

This is another seemingly win-win deal.

After the Knicks' two backcourt players left the team, the backcourt lineup was too empty. Now they have used the bus trade to bring in Warcraft and Old Cat. At least Old Cat can help the Knicks' backcourt become stronger.

The Suns have obtained the immediate strength bus, and they are already determined to win the championship.

The Rockets acquired Lao Mao through a trade a few years ago, and partnered with Francis to form a double-gun backcourt, but the results were not satisfactory. The main reason was that both of them were too short. The offense was fine, but the defense was too deadly.

They happened to get the defensively strong Tony Allen and a first-round pick from the Suns. In addition, they could get rid of the big contract of the old cat. They were completely able to accept this deal.

Daba has been wandering around these years, but he is quite satisfied with this transaction, because after joining the Bobcats, he played with the United Arab Emirates, and in his opinion, the situation in the Western Conference will make it easier for him to play, at least not Opponents of centers like Yao Ming.

After the Knicks trade, the Philadelphia 76ers also made significant lineup adjustments.

Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady are definitely still in the team, Sansi's contract has expired, and the bearded Davis entered the league in 99. At that time, he renewed his contract in advance in 02, but his early renewal was only The contract was renewed for three years, expiring this year.

Stoudemire's contract has not expired, but in his fourth year as a rookie, the Philadelphia 76ers must make a decision.

Is it better to have a point guard with a beard or to have Stoudemire at the fourth position?

If you sign Big Beard, you must give him a maximum salary. After all, Big Beard is now a real All-Star. Without a maximum salary, he will definitely not do it.

Even if Big Beard is given a maximum salary, the Philadelphia 76ers will have to grit their teeth to squeeze it out. There will be no salary left to renew Stoudemire's contract.

There's no need to think about Prince. He couldn't even do a sign-and-trade. He could only watch Prince being signed by the Pistons.

In the end, the Philadelphia 76ers could only sign Big Beard, and Stoudemire took advantage of his low salary to sell him in exchange for Okafor, the Clippers' second overall pick in 04.

This is also a helpless transaction, because if he chooses to keep Stoudemire, Beard will have to leave the team now, and the Philadelphia 76ers' combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced.

Using Stoudemire in exchange for Okafor, who just won the Rookie of the Year award in the same position last season, at least the Philadelphia 76ers and various experts think this is a win-win deal.

Stoudemire has a fierce playing style and strong strength. The Clippers hope to have such a player in the team who can sell tickets. Okafor's playing style is too simple.

As for Stoudemire's contract issue, it is not a problem for the Clippers to solve. Their current total salary is not much at all. When the time comes, they can just clear up some space and renew Stoudemire's contract.

The Philadelphia 76ers see that Okafor is a rookie in 04 and can still play child labor for two more years. Moreover, Okafor is not weak and can perfectly replace Stoudemire.

Both parties are happy with the deal.

Combs couldn't laugh or cry. After the trade, the Knicks' strength must have become weaker, because Mobley has no passing ability at all. He is just a short shooting guard, which means the Knicks lack a backcourt engine.

And Howard is still young. How can the second-year Howard be a perfect replacement for Bus.

Therefore, the Knicks' overall strength has become weaker.

The overall strength of the Philadelphia 76ers has dropped even further. Prince left the team and Stoudemire was replaced by Okafor.

Okafor's peak period is his rookie season, and his strength becomes more and more complete as he goes on. How can he be compared with Stoudemire.

When Yao Ming or Tracy McGrady gets injured again, the Philadelphia 76ers will be completely out of sorts.

However, the Pistons got a big deal and signed Prince with an annual salary of 600 million, which greatly improved their overall combat effectiveness.

However, the improved strength of the Pistons will have little impact on the Bobcats. They will still not be the Bobcats' opponents.

Kongbu is quite satisfied with the current situation. The main opponents in the East have become weaker, which means the Bobcats' chances of winning the championship have become higher again.

……

Time quickly came to the beginning of October, and the Bobcats' preseason began.

Hill's injury has not recovered yet, and he will definitely not be able to play this year, at least until mid-January 2006.

However, this has little impact on the Bobcats. Kongbu has many players who can play the third position.

In the preseason, Kombu did not send out the team's strongest combat force. His starting lineup for six games was center Gortat, power forward Hayes, small forward Ilyasova, shooting guard Lu Wei and point guard Ney. Special Robinson.

This lineup was actually able to win three games in the end, achieving a preseason record of three wins and three losses.

After the preseason, the entire league's attention was drawn to the Bobcats.

Gortat's performance made other teams pinch his thighs. Such an outstanding center prospect was actually selected by Kongbu in the second round?What a crime!

After six preseason games, he averaged 21 points, 12 rebounds and 3 blocks per game. Although the opponents in the preseason are generally weak, Gortat is just a rookie center. Give him two or three years to grow, and he will at least be Bus level.

Hayes' performance is also eye-catching. His defense is a bit ridiculously strong. He faced Randolph for more than ten minutes in the preseason.

Logically speaking, when Randolph beat Hayes, who was 198 centimeters tall, it would be like a lion fighting a rabbit. As a result, Randolph only scored 4 points in more than ten minutes, and was completely restricted by Hayes. .

Of course, Hayes's offensive shortcomings are still very obvious, and he is more inclined to steal chickens in rebounding. Once the opponent finds the rebound spot in advance, or finds the spot with Hayes, Hayes will not be able to grab it. On to the backboard.

Ilyasova should be regarded as the Bobcats player with the best performance in the six preseason games. If Gortat's identity as a center did not attract more attention, Ilyasova would be the most handsome boy.

The 208cm small forward has excellent shooting ability. Against a small forward of normal height, he is mismatched against anyone. He is very active in defense and has many small moves. Everyone is wondering why this guy who obviously looks like the hero of an idol drama is fighting. The ball came so wildly.

Averaged 19 points per game, shooting 46% from the field, 41% from three-point range, and 78% from free throws. The offensive efficiency is extremely high.

The defensive efficiency value is 101. This value is already outstanding at the third position. Iguodala may not be able to achieve this efficiency value even if he plays at the third position.
