Build a Dream Dynasty

Chapter 76: tear up

Kyler Korver eventually declined the invitation to the All-Star Three-Point Contest. As a result, only George and Bledsoe (rookie challenge) were left in the Nets team who had already decided to go to Los Angeles for the All-Star Game. game), Brook Lopez TBD.

In the game on February 8, the Nets played against the Wizards led by No. 1 pick Lang Wall at home. In the mid-season trade, the Wizards first traded Arenas with the Magic for Rashard Lewis, and then traded Caron Butler with the Mavericks for a declining Josh Howard. The conclusion of these two transactions completely cleaned up all the players in the Wizards who threatened Wall's core status. The Wizards, which had expected Wall and old players to coexist peacefully, turned into reconstruction mode, which can also be called rotten mode. . Rather than winning, the team is more willing to go with a worse record to get a higher pick in the June draft, and then go further to rebuild with Wall and a high-draft rookie.

Faced with this kind of opponent who comes with the purpose of training and losing, the difficulty of the game is greatly reduced. For the rest of his life, Lewis, who is only waiting to finish his 3-year, 63 million contract, has no fighting spirit. Josh Howard has bid farewell to this season because of an injury. The other teammates of the Wizards are not strong enough. Wall can only make full use of this environment. Exercise your punching ability.

97:122, the Nets beat the Wizards by 25 points and continued to rank sixth in the Eastern Conference. (29-25)

In the second half of the season, many teams in the league have already begun to focus on rot. Against these opponents, the Nets can hold back a little bit or experiment with their lineups.

And after entering February, the trade rumors of various teams in the league are also constantly pouring out. Strong teams want to seize the last chance to strengthen, while weak teams can exchange for draft picks, potential rookies, etc. by eating garbage contracts, and each gets what they need. The value of the draft picks for the 2011 season is also declining as the collective bargaining agreement is not going well and considering that many potential rookies may withdraw from the draft.

And Jiang Mingliang is also trying to get a higher draft pick by eating garbage contracts. Of course, the premise is that Jiang Mingliang can't pay the luxury tax for the draft rights and give up the opportunity to get dividends.

It's just that the general managers of each company are talented people, and it's not all good things that Jiang Mingliang's turn has to do. Several transactions have not been negotiated, and in the end, it's all over.

On February 9, the league officially announced the All-Star Game benches selected by the two coaches. Rivers directly selected the four Celtics candidates Rondo, Ray Allen, Pierce, and Garnett into the All-Star list, and the other three positions were given to Joe Johnson, Bosh, and Stoudemire. you. The Western All-Star bench list is Deron Williams, Westbrook, Manu Ginobili, Nowitzki, Duncan, Bynum, Gasol, Nash. Because Yao Ming was unable to participate due to injury, Bynum replaced Yao Ming into the starting lineup, and President David Stern personally designated Kevin Love as a replacement.

The All-Star lineup was officially released, which immediately sparked a lot of discussion.

"When I signed up, I didn't dare to compete with Howard for the starting position. I saw that no one would compete with me except James for the forward position. Anthony was brought in to play, and the bench was no longer available, so I changed back to the center position, hehe→_→"

"When I vote, I'm a forward, and when I'm a substitute, I'm a center. It's really fickle!"

"Doug really dared to play. All four Celtics players were selected for the bench list. Is this really good?"

"This year is the strongest All-Star lineup in the East in recent years."

"To tell a joke, people who average 17+7 per game laugh at people who average 21+10 per game as not eligible for the All-Star Game."

"Compared with statistics, popularity, and brilliance, can Lopez compete with Stoudemire?"

The fans of the Blue Nets frantically expressed their dissatisfaction. The reason is very simple. Stoudemire was selected as an All-Star as a backup center, but when he participated in the voting, he was listed as a forward. This operation of the league undermined the most basic procedural justice, and the fans of the Knicks and the Suns Stoudemire launched a defense.

"Honorswingman~" Jiang Mingliang's phrase directly pushed the controversy to its peak. What an ironic title "Honorswingman" is.

As for public figures, Europe, America and Asia have never been the same. In Asia, at least in the same country, 99% of the stylistic stars and public figures will not be directly merciless even if they are not pleasing to each other. In Europe and the United States, I'm sorry, all the stars go directly to tear it up, and fans watch the show and eat melons.

However, thanks to Jiang Mingliang's leading role, the fans started to poke fun at Stoudemire's pictures and videos.

Jiang Mingliang was born into a family of lawyers. His grandfather was a lawyer, so he was very particular about procedural justice. Will not compromise on things that undermine procedural justice. Stoudemire didn't want to compete head-to-head with Howard in popularity, and instead voted for the power forward position. When the bench was finally selected, there was no reason to be selected as a center backup. In the final analysis, he blamed himself for being a coward.

In the face of Jiang Mingliang's provocation, Xiao Si, who is not very good-tempered, immediately burned with anger. After the game against the Mavericks the next day, when he was interviewed, he exclaimed: "The next game against the Nets, I will tear his mouth with performance and let him take back the word. I will let him understand what it means. cruel."

In the rage, some swear words were inevitably mixed in, and the subtitles of the TV station were directly filtered anyway.

To this, Jiang Mingliang's response was also simple, "Sixth > Seventh~www.NovelMTL.com~ Luckily, the Nets are just one game ahead of the Knicks. Jiang Mingliang used the ranking to stimulate the opponent, which is reasonable.

Jiang Mingliang's success for Lopez must have gained enough goodwill in the team, and he also stirred up the antagonistic emotions between the Nets and the Knicks' future derby opponents, and at the same time, he did not leave any retreat for himself.

If the Nets are not as good as the Knicks this year, then a bit. . . . . .

In fact, in the personnel arrangement of the All-Star players this time, Jiang Mingliang recruited all four Celtics players to the team at the same time to Rivers, leaving only three places for other teams, but he had to sacrifice the worst data. , the least popular Lopez? Of course, there is nothing wrong with Rivers doing this. Who does not give priority to taking care of himself as a coach? The feng shui turns, and the way of heaven is good for reincarnation.

As for the league, it did not interfere with the grievance between the general manager and the star. In the past, in such discordant scenes, Stern always had to call to do ideological work, but this time, Stern Turn found that this might be an opportunity to create a pair of rivals in the same city.

Of the 30 NBA teams, distributed in 29 cities, only the Lakers and Clippers are rivals in the same city. But the two teams are not equal in every way. The Lakers are the second team in the NBA championship and the team with the first winning percentage, and the Clippers have only entered the playoffs 12 times since their establishment. Gee. . . . . .

Although the Nets have a short team history and do not have a championship, the history of entering the finals twice is not bad for a team that entered the league relatively late. The Jiang Mingliang in front of him has two more brushes, maybe he can really make a new pair of old enemies and create a new point of view for the alliance.
