NBA: Start by torturing Jordan and add points to upgrade

89: 70!

If the Greek team is a program that runs perfectly without any bugs or loopholes, then Lin Tian is a barbarian with a sledgehammer.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!" A series of random knocks will directly smash your computer to pieces. No matter how perfectly you run it, no one can jump out of this program to deal with Lin Tian's physical destruction. What can you do?

In the sport of basketball, sometimes an unreasonable way of playing is the most reasonable solution!
That night, Lin Tian scored 44 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists, and broke down the entire defense of the Greek team by himself. He also faced off against the two ace backcourt players of the Greek team, Papaloukas and Svanoulis, and then defeated them one after another.

A dominant performance!

Under the leadership of Lin Tian, ​​the Chinese team won their fourth consecutive championship in the world championships!

Two Olympic gold medals, two World Championships.

After four consecutive world championships, no one has any excuse or reason to question the Chinese team.

They are the strongest basketball team in the world today!

They are the giants and super dragons in today's world basketball!
Want a gold medal? Come and try it!
The most unquestionable thing about the Chinese team this year is that they encountered some difficulties in the process of winning the cup for the first three times.

Sometimes it's the American team, sometimes it's other teams. They are always forced into desperate situations and then barely win with great pain.

Some people say it was just good luck, some people would say it was just one or two extra goals.

But this year, everyone is speechless!

This year, no team has really caused any trouble to the Chinese team!
In their 5 group matches and 4 knockout matches, the Huaxia team beat their opponents by an average of 39.6 points per game. Even in the finals and semi-finals, they beat their opponents by more than 20 points!
For example, the 70-point bloodbath of Angola and the 55-point win over Italy were completely one-sided and broke various records.

This year, no one can be a match for the Chinese team, not even one!

They are the kings who look down on all the other teams and are far ahead of all other teams!
As for what you said, what would happen if they lost Lin Tian?
Lin Tian said: Why do you want to get rid of me? Shame on you!
With the glory of four championships and full of excitement, Lin Tian led the entire Chinese team and quietly sneaked into the Kabukicho area of ​​Tokyo.

We have already won, it’s time to pay more attention to our brothers!

Then?

Then Dayao was the first to run away.

"Ye Zi is still in the hotel."

Then he ran away with a few old friends from the Bayi team.

Then Zhu Fangyu, Chen Jianghua and Wang Shipeng also ran away.

"They sent me a message, saying that if we don't leave, we'll be in trouble. Bro, I'm sorry for not being sociable."

In the end, only Lin Tian sat down, and the rest ran away.

"A bunch of spineless people, pretending to be innocent in front of me. If you don't know, you would think that these people don't drink or hang out normally."

Lin Tian doesn’t care about that. After playing for two months, can’t I just enjoy myself?
Must enjoy!

As for how Lin Tian enjoyed himself and how happy he was spending the night alone?

It cannot be said!
Because the author has never been to Japan to collect customs and has not experienced the most authentic Japanese style.

Some other day, when I go there some other day, I will make up for this happy time.

……

In early September, after Lin Tian had rested with his father and grandfather in the imperial capital for a few days, he finally boarded a plane to New York.

The training camp for the new season is about to begin!

As the defending champions, the Knicks face huge challenges!
They have a lot of work to do, and they also need to get back into the swing of things and see if everyone has trained hard and improved their strength during the offseason.

But the good news is that the Knicks did not lose any important rotation players during this offseason, nor did they bring in any big names. They just maintained the status of last season, and then made minor adjustments, striving to defend the title with the current lineup!
This is actually normal.

Which team would adjust its lineup for no reason after winning first place in the league and 16 consecutive wins in the playoffs?

Maintaining the status quo as much as possible is the best reinforcement!

As for the biggest change in the Knicks this year, it is that Mourning left.

The veteran who finally got what he wanted chose to retire and left New York.

Although he has not announced his retirement yet, everyone knows that this guy is just waiting for the season to start, and then sign a one-day contract with the Heat or something like that, so that he can retire as a Heat player.

This guy and Riley are a pair of master and apprentice with a very interesting story.

As for the newcomers, in addition to selecting the jumping man Shannon Brown, the team also brought in a former top star.

Grant Hill!
This guy's super long contract with the Magic has finally expired. Although he is still nostalgic and said that he has gotten used to life with the Magic, he is willing to sign a smaller contract to retire here and pass on his skills to others.

In fact, with the ability Hill showed last season, it would be absolutely no problem for him to sign another middle-class contract.

Of course, this is without considering his injury history. If his injury history is taken into account, then he can only get the basic salary.

After all, he was injured again last season and only played about 20 games in total.

In all his years with the Magic, he was only healthy for one season, and that was the lottery season when he led the team alone after all the big guys left.

His magic career is really terrible.

The Magic's management seems to think so too.

Who made Hill stay in the team for so many years? Not only did he never play well due to injuries, but he also caused several big stars of the team to leave for various reasons, making the team's ambitious team building a joke?
So, the management said: This is all your fault. You and our Orlando have incompatible horoscopes, feng shui, zodiac signs, and blood types.

In short, they would rather let Hill run naked than give him a contract slightly above the minimum salary.

Hill, who was kicked out, had even considered retiring, but at this time, he remembered that Lin Tian said he could come to the Knicks.

Then, without thinking whether Lin Tian was just saying it casually or really needed him, he directly asked his agent to contact Walsh and expressed his hope to join.

Although Hill only played 21 games last season, he still averaged 15 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists per game. In the season before that, which was Hill's only healthy season with the Magic, he was able to contribute almost 20 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists per game!
Even though Hill is already aging and out of form, and has been sidelined for another year by a knee injury, he will certainly not be able to return to his peak form even though he is about to turn 35.

But obviously, as long as this guy can be healthy next season, and he doesn't even have to be healthy for the entire season, and can play in 40 regular season games + playoffs, Walsh's signing will be a huge profit!
If they can't play 40 games, playing 30 games is fine. If they can't play 30 games, the Knicks won't lose anything.

After all, which team doesn't need a 15th man to complete the team's roster?

But regardless of Hill’s condition and health next season, these changes are minor ones for the Knicks, who have, by and large, maintained 90% of their championship lineup!
Center: Mehmet Okur, Nazir Mohammed
Power forward: Amar'e Stoudemire, Josh Smith, Michael Sweetney
Small forward: Carmelo Anthony, Gerald Wallace, Trevor Ariza

Shooting Guards: Alan Houston, Matt Barnes, Grant Hill, Shannon Brown

Point guard: Lin Tian, ​​Charlie Ward, Nate Robinson. In fact, it can be seen that the Knicks lack inside players! Especially at the 5th position, the team only has Okur as a reliable player.

But Walsh didn't really add a center during the offseason, instead he signed Hill and Brown.

The team's 2-3 positions are enough to play a table of mahjong, but this guy actually found two swingmen at positions 2-3.

I can only say that Walsh is a really generous guy!
God knows what this guy has been doing these past few months.

However, Lin Tian is not dissatisfied with the team's current lineup, he just thinks it's fun.

This is really Jiang Taigong fishing, those who are willing will take the bait!

That's the Knicks, that's Dolan. If it were somewhere else, I'm afraid that Walsh, a general manager who takes money but does little to do anything, would be fired in a minute.

With an annual salary of $9000 million and a luxury tax of $6000 million, he can sit back and relax without having to strengthen the team or cut costs.

Even Lin Tian couldn't help but wonder: Could this kid be Dolan's mistress?

The Knicks really didn't make any moves during the offseason, but that doesn't mean other teams didn't make any moves!
This offseason, several transactions occurred that were enough to change the league's landscape and shocked many fans and management!

The alliance structure has once again undergone tremendous earthquakes and changes.

The first thing is the disintegration of the Pistons!

They failed to reach a contract extension with Larry Brown, so Brown resigned in anger. Then he joined Charlotte and teamed up with Jordan, becoming the second head coach in the history of the Bobcats!

And if only Larry Brown leaves, the Pistons are far from disintegrating. As long as the players are still there, it will not be difficult to find a defensive head coach.

But the difficulty lies in that Ben's contract has also expired! This nostalgic guy actually doesn't want to test the free market. He doesn't want to ask around to determine his value.

He went directly to the Pistons' management, Joe Dumars, hoping that Dumars could give him a suitable offer. He hoped to be respected and spend the rest of his life with the Pistons.

No one knows what the two people talked about in the office, and no one knows how much they talked about the contract.

But what is certain is that two hours later, when Big Ben pushed open the door of his office, his eyes were red, and Dumas' eyes were also red.

Then that night, Big Ben called all of his best friends on the team to his house.

Rashid, Billups, Hamilton, Artest, Wells...

A group of grown men drank an unknown amount of wine at Big Ben's house, but everyone was absolutely there and everyone was drunk.

"We will still be together! The Detroit Men's Gang will never disband!"

"Youth will leave, but love will never end!"

"Damn it, those bastards in management dared to touch my brothers. Don't they know that my brothers are my wings? I'm going to tear down their entire paradise!"

"We must get back together! We must get together again for a drink!"

"From now on, we will have a party every off-season. No one can be left out, no one can be absent!"

"Run forward, for ideals and pride..."

Well, they can't sing this.

"Dreams are always out of reach. Should I give up..."

Oh...they don't know this either.

Anyway, they started singing.

The reason why I use those two songs as examples is because Lin Tian doesn’t understand what they are singing, but he thinks they should have similar themes and lyrics.

As for why Lin Tian knew about this?
Lin Tian said: I don’t even fucking want to know!
God knows why those bastards got drunk and called him, and then cried, shouted and sang with Lin Tian on the phone.

Mr. Lin said: I feel your friendship, but I also suffered a critical hit of 10,000 points.

It's awful! And too loud.

However, Lin Tian did not hang up the phone. If he did, who knows how many more times these people would call him.

Anyway, Lin Tian hid the cell phone in the quilt, hid the quilt in the cabinet, and closed the cabinet door tightly.

After all, when they called, the World Championships hadn't even started yet! That was in July, when Lin Tian and the Chinese team were training in Europe.

Anyway, no matter how reluctant these people were and how much they didn't want to separate, the next morning, Ben released the news that he would test the free market and seek a big contract.

A guy like him who is a top blue-collar player and the best defensive player level is definitely a hot commodity in the free market!

After all, he does not occupy any ball possession, hardly affects any team's offensive system, and can support an entire defensive system by himself.

More importantly, Ben has proven himself to be the perfect piece of the championship puzzle!
He has won championships in Indiana and Detroit!
It can even be said that every championship after 00 was shared by him and Lin Tian!
In short, the market in Daben is pretty good!
But of course, although many people asked, there were not many teams that actually offered Ben a contract that satisfied him.

After all, although Big Ben is very good, his functionality is too strong. After all, he is a pure defensive player. If you give him too much, the team's investment in the offensive end will be reduced, right?
During the offseason, Ben met with 7-8 teams. After repeated bargaining and negotiations, Ben finally decided to join Chicago!
The Bulls offered him a 4-year, $6000 million maximum contract! They were the only team on the market willing to give Ben this amount!

One reason is that the Bulls feel that their lineup is almost there. Gordon, Luol Deng and others have grown rapidly. After the team's dormancy and failure in the past few years, it is almost time for them to achieve results.

That's why they paid such a big contract to bring Ben under their command! Not only because of Ben's defense, but also because of his experience. They hope that he can pass on his skills and help the young people of the Bulls to grow quickly!

And it's not just Ben Wallace who left the Pistons this offseason!
Less than a week after Ben announced he would join the Bulls as a free agent, Dumars announced another deal.

He traded Chauncey Billups, the team's MVP winner the year before, to the distant Denver Plateau in exchange for Andre Miller, a mediocre point guard, and two future draft picks.

No matter how you look at it, this deal is a huge loss for the Pistons, and they are hurting themselves. After all, judging from the Nuggets' current lineup and the age of their players, whether it is the prime-year Billups or the young Milicic and Nene, this team has quite good prospects.

Their two draft picks are really not worth much.

It was really puzzling that the Pistons made such a money-losing deal at the beginning. Many Pistons fans even cursed at Dumars, calling him an idiot and a bastard.

The person who helped Dumars out of the predicament was Billups.

At the press conference for joining the Nuggets, Billups said that he asked to leave on his own initiative because the team's abandonment of Ben and Brown broke his heart and made him not want to stay in Detroit anymore.

As for joining the Nuggets, it was Billups' own request. He hopes to return to his hometown, the place where his dream began! As a graduate of the University of Colorado and the most famous player in this school, Billups can be regarded as returning home in glory.

More importantly, there are several teams that can actually make better offers to the Pistons. Billups also told Dumars that although he wanted to go to the Nuggets, he would not hinder Dumars, and that where he would be sent in the end would depend entirely on God's will.

But in the end, Dumars chose loyalty and accepted the Pistons' offer that was significantly below the market price, sending Billups to where he most wanted to go.

In this way, the Nuggets' lineup was also upgraded, and they immediately became stronger! The Western Conference next year is destined to be even more cruel! (End of this chapter)
