Super All-around Point Guard

Xie Chen's physical exertion on the court is smaller than that of other players, so he doesn't mind playing a little longer. The regular horse racing is about to begin. He must seize every opportunity for official competition to increase his tacit understanding with his teammates. This game From the current point of view, it is very bad, which makes Xie Chen unable to see the hope that the Lakers will reproduce SHOWTIME in the future.

The defensive intensity of this game was not high, but the Lakers still played poorly. Xie Chen made two open three-pointers for Clarkson. Ingram made a dribbling error and misplaced his position, which is what all rookies will make. Wrong, the alley-oop sent to Xie Chen was not coordinated enough. He seemed to have no idea where Xie Chen could jump.

"The Lakers played too badly in this game. Even though they have Xie, they are still a bad team in the NBA. They can't see any wonderful cooperation." Some spectators who often watch the game couldn't help but complain.

The Lakers are now a brand new team. No one knows anyone else, and their personal relationships are very average. Most of them don't even know each other's phone numbers, and they don't have much experience eating and having fun together, so The first two quarters were not pretty, but fortunately, Xie Chen and Luol Deng were teammates before, and they had a great understanding.

Luol Deng stole the ball and immediately ran straight to the frontcourt. Under the defense of the opponent, Luol Deng rushed to the basket, pressed his body against the opponent and then suddenly threw it back. This was a pass without looking at anyone. Seeing Xie Chen following up from behind, he caught the ball and dunked into the basket with one hand like a god descending from heaven!

"Alley-oop! This ball is so beautiful!" The Lakers finally played a perfect match, and Xie Chen delivered the most exciting dunk, giving the audience the long-awaited satisfaction.

The Lakers bench also stood up and cheered.

To achieve this kind of wonderful cooperation, it turns out that we still have to rely on our old teammates. Luo Erdeng knew Xie Chen's abilities and habits very well, and he knew that Xie Chen would appear in that position.

Apart from Luol Deng, I didn’t expect Mozgov to frequently pass good balls to Xie Chen. Speaking of which, Mozgov and Xie Chen have played nearly 20 games. As opponents in two seasons, Mozgov also knows Xie Chen very well and clearly knows what kind of things Xie Chen likes to do under what circumstances. Moreover, Mozgov's long pass is also good, and he seems to have received a true pass from Love.

However, except for these teammates who often dealt with Xie Chen, the cooperation between others and Xie Chen was a bit miserable.

At halftime, the Lakers already led by 15 points. In the third quarter, Luke Walton originally did not plan to let Xie Chen play again. After all, it was a preseason game and he was abroad. It was enough to go on the court to practice and perform. , the loss outweighs the gain when he is tired and injured, but Xie Chen insisted: "I will continue to play and let Mozgov and Luol Deng rest."

The fans at the scene were very excited when they saw that Xie Chen was always on the court: "Xie is so interesting, playing a preseason game for such a long time, and there is Ingram, who plays the same time as Xie."

Ingram is the player who should stay on the court and practice the most. It is best to expose all his shortcomings in the preseason so that he can slowly get better in the regular season. After playing for more than three quarters, Ingram There were problems with Gram's physical fitness, and he became a little lax on offense and defense.

Xie Chen said to Ingram: "I said I would turn you into the best rookie of the season, but if you don't work hard enough, you won't even get playing time."

Ingram immediately suppressed his fatigue and continued to focus on defense. Xie Chen looked at the slightly thin Ingram and couldn't help but worry in his heart. How long can this kind of physical fitness last in the playoffs where physical confrontation is more intense?

After four quarters, the Lakers won by 20 points, but that didn't mean anything. At least in Xie Chen's opinion, the Lakers played poorly today, so he asked everyone to practice extra after the game.

This made many Lakers "old people" complain.

Randall, Clarkson, Nick Young, Nance Jr. and others got together and started complaining.

Randall said: "This is ridiculous. How can you say that you should practice more after the preseason games? And we also won the game!"

Little Nance also said: "Yes, my girlfriend is still waiting for me in the hotel."

Clarkson said with a serious face: "I think I am going to be unlucky this season. Last season I averaged 15 points per game. This season I will average only 5 points per game. All of us have to follow Xie's ideas. He is a bit too much." We are so ambitious. There is no way we can compete with the Golden State Warriors. It’s hard to say whether we can even make it to the playoffs. He has set such high standards for us. Guess what he just said to me? He asked me to do this this season. My three-point shooting percentage cannot be less than 40%. Oh my god, I think I will leave this team sooner or later."

Randall also said: "He also told me that he wants me to continue to improve my rebounding and defense. In fact, if I do it all for the sake of winning and the championship, no matter how hard and tired I am, I will do it. After all, he is not the only one who wins the championship." However, he said that he wanted us to play in the SHOWTIME era. This was too difficult for others. This was his own wishful thinking. I didn’t want to play a SHOWTIME game. I just wanted to win honestly. Now, I have to work on that damn long ball for him!”

Nance Jr. has a different opinion on this: "No, I think Jordan Clarkson is right. It is impossible for us to compete for the championship this season. There is no need to train ourselves with too high requirements. Instead, it is better to play SHOWTIME games. It’s enough to play our wonderful cooperation, as for whether we can win, it’s up to God.”

Randall rolled his eyes at little Nance: "Of course you say so if you run fast and jump high. Hey, Nick, why don't you talk? Aren't you usually the one who complains the most and talks the most?"

Everyone looked at Nick Yang. Nick Yang was always active and liked to brag, but this time when everyone complained to Xie Chen, he didn't say a word, which made everyone feel strange.

Nick Young only said one thing: "No matter how much we talk, we can't change anything. Stop talking nonsense and practice long passing quickly. Once you practice it, everything will be fine?"

After saying that, Nick Young walked away to train alone. This made others feel very strange. Even when he was teammates with Kobe, Nick Young would talk about Kobe in private, but why was he so submissive to Xie Chen? Post?

In fact, Nick Young guessed why Xie Chen wanted to partner with him. It was obvious that Xie Chen not only wanted the Lakers to win the championship, but also wanted the Lakers to play a gorgeous game. Xie Chen has always been a high-profile person. In the past two It can be seen in the season. Nick Young guessed that Xie Chen took a fancy to his high profile. In other words, Nick Young can follow Xie Chen in a high profile and pretend to be B this season!

Nick Young can't wait for this to happen... Such arrogant games belong to his Nick Young world!

After the Milan International Game, the Lakers played a few more preseason games. Under the high standards of Xie Chen and Walton, these games were obviously much better than the first game. At least they started to have some excitement. Cooperation has appeared, and everyone's tacit understanding is getting better and better. However, people like Randall and Clarkson still have some opinions on Xie Chen, especially because they do not agree with Xie Chen's goals. They always feel that the Lakers are not such a team. A team that can win the championship this season.

Soon, the first game of the regular season is coming, against the Houston Rockets. Xie Chen wants to win this game to tell his teammates that the Lakers have the strength to win any game!

In addition to winning, Xie Chen also has a goal, which is to impress Ingram, who is making his NBA debut for the first time! He wants to help Ingram score at least 20 points in the first game to shock all opponents. I also have good helpers around me!

The night before the first game of the regular season, everyone went back to rest, and there were only two people in the stadium, Xie Chen and Ingram.

Xie Chen said to Ingram: "Tomorrow is your first show in the NBA. Many superstars have shown their superstar potential in the first game, so I think your first game should also be good." Performance, a good start is always important, now we practice the small coordination between us, these coordination can help you score more easily."

Xie Chen practiced with Ingram, and Ingram listened carefully. He found that Xie Chen really wanted to help him succeed. Xie Chen was willing to sacrifice himself to achieve Ingram's success.

"Also, once I complete the steal, even if there is no defensive player in front of me, you can follow me and I will pass the ball to you for a dunk." Xie Chen said.

Ingram was a little embarrassed: "Isn't it too obvious to increase points like this?"

Xie Chen smiled and said: "In a few years, people will only see your data, and no one will remember how you got it."

Ingram said gratefully: "Thank you, boss, I will not let you down!"

…

After leaving the team training hall, Xie Chen returned home in the dark and came to the bedroom. Looking at the map of the thirty teams from the east and west hanging on the wall, Xie Chen couldn't help but be stunned.

The upcoming 2016-2017 season is too different from last season, with too many star players choosing to leave.

Tomorrow, the Lakers' first opponent of the new season, Magic Howard has left the Magic duo and switched to the Atlanta Hawks, signing a three-year contract worth $70.5 million with the Hawks.

After thirty years, Howard finally returned to his hometown.

Jeremy Lin returned to New York and signed a three-year contract with the Nets worth a total of 36 million. Jeremy Lin performed well last season. With Xie Chen, who is also a Chinese-American player, already firmly established as the number one player in the league, Jeremy Lin is not to be outdone and continues to stimulate his potential.

Evan Turner, the second overall pick in 2010, signed with the Trail Blazers for $75 million over four years, and Al Jefferson also left the Hornets and joined the Indiana Pacers.

Dellavedova, who has always been a tough opponent of Xie Chen, left the Cavaliers and switched to the Bucks. The wealthy coach Parsons went to the Grizzlies. The new contract was 4 years and 90 million US dollars. Last season, Parsons The data is not ideal, averaging only 13.7 points per game. His scoring is a new low except for his rookie season. It is not as good as Nowitzki. Many people think that the price is not worth it. Perhaps the Grizzlies just want to sign big-name players as soon as possible to strengthen the team. competitiveness to attract Conley to stay on the team.

This offseason, the biggest contract is Mike Conley from the Grizzlies. Conley signed a five-year super contract worth $153 million with the Grizzlies!

This is the largest contract in NBA history!

Conley has always been considered an undervalued star. He has played for the Grizzlies for nine years and has never had an annual salary of more than $10 million in a year. But now, his annual salary is $30 million!

This big contract can be said to have shocked the entire league. Even retired Shark O'Neal couldn't help but say: "I really want to be young again. That way, I can get a big contract like Conley."

In addition to Conley, Al Horford, who has been playing with the Hawks, also received a large contract worth over 100 million US dollars, worth US$113 million over four years, and joined the Boston Celtics.

The Mavericks retained Powell for four years and $37 million. The Heat's Tyler Johnson went to the Nets for four years and $50 million. The Warriors' Bogut went to the Dallas Mavericks. Barbosa also left, going to the Phoenix Suns and Speights. He went to the Clippers, Joe went to the Jazz, Barnes went to the Mavericks, and Derrick Williams, Xie Chen's teammate last season, went to the Heat.

There are too many changes in things and people, which is what all teams and fans have to face every offseason. However, the only thing that is unbearable to face is the departure of that person.

Xie Chen looked at the lower right corner of the map, the team he had spent a year with, the Miami Heat, and couldn't help but sigh.

Whiteside stayed and got a big contract as he wished, just like Xie Chen expected of him when he was with the Heat.

But Wade is gone.

He chose to go to his hometown Chicago Bulls.

When Xie Chen learned the news, he couldn't help but feel sad for Wade. He knew deeply how much Wade wanted to stay in the Heat. Like Kobe, he would only stay with one team his whole life. He loved Miami too much. , he dedicated his entire youth to this team!

Even in order to allow Riley to keep Wade on the best terms possible, Xie Chen deliberately let off steam during the playoffs to make Wade's data look better. However, in the end, it was still a futile outcome...

The Chicago Bulls gave Wade $47.5 million over two years, and the $40 million the Heat gave was actually not that small. Wade definitely did not leave because of the $7.5 million. Miami is the city where Wade has lived for many years, and he is already there. Taking root, the money is not enough to force Wade to leave, and if Wade stays in Miami, his various local investments and private benefits will definitely make up for the money.

He was really sad and disappointed because Riley didn't pay attention to Wade at all. Before Durant announced that he would join the Warriors, Riley put attracting Durant first. At that time, Wade didn't say anything What, for the team, for the championship, but after it was confirmed that Durant would not come and no big names would sign him, Riley still didn't take Wade to heart.

Just as Xie Chen was sighing for Wade, Katie suddenly knocked on the door, and then said to Xie Chen: "Jenny Buss is here."

Jenny Bass suddenly visited late at night, and seemed to have something to tell Xie Chen.

"Thank you, I know the real reason why D-WADE went to the Chicago Bulls!" Jenny Buss said with a serious face.
