The NBA started with helping Iverson win the championship

Chapter 235 The Heat's New Big Three
The semi-finals start.

Tang Shuai stood on the sidelines and looked at Li Xun and Yao Ming, the two favorite generals, a little dumbfounded.

This matter will be difficult.

If the lineup he leads this year is a college lineup like before, then losing to the Tianchao Men's Basketball Team is completely acceptable.

But now he is leading an all-star lineup. After all, every player in the lineup is a well-known figure in the league.

It's just that the grades of these All-Stars are not high, and Billups and Ray Allen, who are the most graded, are old now.

People like Ross and Love are new melon eggs now.

Facing the Super God Tower combination of the new championship, Tang Shuai really has no certainty of winning.

If they lose to the Tianchao men's basketball team, it means that they can only win the bronze medal at most.

Although this is not the worst record of the dream team participating in the World Championships, it is always a loss of face.

However, Tang Shuai had no choice but to beg Li Xun and Yao Ming for mercy, right?

In the warm-up session of the game, Li Xun greeted a group of familiar NBA players.

Although Li Xun has many enemies in the NBA, in fact he also has many friends.

At least Love and Rose can be regarded as Li Xun's friends.

Billups and Ray Allen of the older generation also have a good relationship with Li Xun.

"Li, I never had time to congratulate you for winning the championship."

"Won the championship at such a young age, and won it as an absolute core, you are already destined to be a member of the Hall of Fame."

After seeing Li Xun, Lei Allen smiled and greeted him.

Lukai and Li Xun were at odds, but Lei Allen and Li Xun had always been on good terms. Before that, Li Xun even gave Lei Allen an expensive golf club.

"Old man, I really didn't expect to see you here."

"Why did you come to play in the World Championships?"

Li Xun asked curiously.

Ray Allen smiled awkwardly, he was not very embarrassed to answer this question.

Now his contract with Lukai has also expired. From the perspective of Lukai, they want to lower the price and only give Ray Allen a two-year contract of 1600 million yuan.

This contract is simply an insult to Ray Allen.

Under normal circumstances, Ray Allen has still held a 2400 million contract in Green Kai for the past two years. Now that Green Kai has cut a big part, I am afraid that he has nothing to do with the Pistons.

The Pistons are too strong. In order to compete against the Pistons, Lukai can't wait to spend a penny.

They can save some salary space and clear some contracts, and they can sign another puzzle player.

But they obviously ignored Ray Allen's feelings.

Annoyed, Ray Allen simply came to participate in this World Championships, waiting for the Green Kai.

He has already won a championship in Green Kai, and now judging from the posture of the Pistons, it is quite difficult for Green Kai to win the championship.

It can even be said that there is no hope at all.

Because of their age, Lukai's combat power will only get weaker and weaker. Whether they can compete with the Pistons in the playoffs is a matter of opinion.

The piston is getting stronger and stronger.

Last season, the Pistons failed in the finals, and last season just ended, the Pistons beat the defending champion Lakers.

And in the new season that is about to start, no one can imagine what kind of combat power the Pistons are.

Since Lukai has no hope of winning the championship, there is no point in staying in Lukai.

Anyway, Ray Allen has no sense of belonging to Lukai.

Seeing that Lei Allen looked embarrassed and did not speak, Li Xun roughly guessed the reason in his heart, so he simply spoke.

"Old man, how about I ask Mr. Dumas to send you a contract."

"It may not be too high, but I can guarantee that it will definitely allow you to win another championship."

Li Xun has always had the idea of ​​poaching Ray Allen.

Now that the off-season is almost over, the lineups of all teams in the league have changed greatly.

The biggest change is of course the Miami Heat. They formed the Big Three like normal history.

However, these three giants are not quite the same as normal.

Because of Jordan, Bosh never left the Raptors at all, and renewed a super-high-priced contract with the Raptors.

Wade also invited Bosh to join in the offseason, but Bosh thought twice and didn't agree.

Of course he also has his own considerations.

If you want to join the Heat, who is the boss of the team?Of course it was Wade.

He didn't know that James would also join the Heat later.

Since he is not even the boss, and he doesn't think he will join forces with Wade, he will really be the opponent of the Pistons.

In this way, what reason is there to transfer?

If he stayed, he would still be the king of the North, and he could even get a little more salary.

You must know that once he runs away, the bird rights on him will be gone, and the contract amount signed will be much less.

As an inside player, his commercial value is far inferior to that of Wade or James, and his main income depends on the team salary.

As a result, Bosh didn't go here, and Wade found Boozer again.

Boozer was supposed to go to the Bulls to become Rose's rising right-hand man.

As a result, Ross became the biggest victim after such a disturbance.

After Boozer officially announced that he was traded to the Heat, the league was shocked, saying that it was a trade, but in fact, the Heat gave the Jazz a second-round pick.

Next, James held a press conference and also ran to Miami, where he uttered a famous sentence that could be passed down through the ages.

To be reasonable, Bosh's combat power may not be as strong as Boozer's now.

Boozer rebounds and defends better than Bosh.

As for the offense, he is actually quite similar to Bosh, both of whom are mid-range players.

More importantly, Boozer is even cheaper.

Doing this made Li Xun's heart beat.

I don't know what kind of combat power this new Big Three can exert, and whether it is possible to be stronger than the normal Big Three.

It was supposed to come sooner or later, so Li Xun was only worried for a moment, and he didn't pay much attention to it recently.

He just feels sorry for Rose. Originally, he should have won the regular season MVP in the past two years, so there is probably no chance for such a mess.

But it's a blessing in disguise, so maybe Ross won't be seriously injured?
If Ray Allen is hired, at least he won't let Ray Allen go to the Big Three.

Now Ray Allen can be regarded as at least half a giant, which is not the same as joining the Heat two years later under normal circumstances.

The Big Three of Boozer themselves made Li Xun a little afraid, and he didn't want things to become more difficult.

Just during the offseason, both Prince and Hamilton left the team, and the Pistons still have a lot of salary space.

"Li, are you serious?"

Ray Allen said in surprise.

"Of course it is true, but I think the contract should be 2000 million in two years."

"I don't know if you want to accept it."

Li Xun made a price on his behalf.

This price tag is actually not high. If Ray Allen went to the Heat, he might get an extra 100 million a year.

But there are many benefits in the Pistons, at least the championship is guaranteed.

"Of course I do, God, it looks like I didn't come in vain this time."

"That's settled. I'll wait for a call from Mr. Dumas at any time."

"Lee, although we've never been teammates."

"But I know very well that you are a great leader and I will have a great time in the next two years."

Looking at Ray Allen's posture, he has already taken the initiative to substitute himself into the role of a Pistons player.

Li Xun touched his nose, it was really embarrassing to praise such a famous person like Ray Allen.

But it is true that Li Xun is a great leader.

At least there has never been any internal strife in the Pistons. The team is extremely united and has never caused players to turn against each other because of statistics.

In addition, whether it is personal data or team record, they are all perfect.

To say it is great is an understatement.

"Okay, my old man, welcome to the Pistons."

Li Xun stepped forward and gave Jun Zijian a hug. He was very happy to be a teammate with such a player.

Ray Allen is also excited, it seems that his second championship should be regarded as already obtained.

Don't look at his listless appearance, in fact Ray Allen is also a triumphant.

If it weren't for increasing the chances of Lukay winning the championship, he would not have supported the exchange of Rondo for Paul.

It was precisely because of this that he was targeted by Rondo.

Billups, who was not far away, was filled with emotion.

After he spent the honeymoon period with Anthony, the situation is a bit wrong now, and Anthony is going to run away.

This embarrasses Billups.

If I had known that I would not have signed with the Nuggets for such a long time at that time, wouldn't it be wonderful for Anthony to run away and return to the Pistons himself at this juncture.

Watching the Pistons win the championship, Billups certainly felt bad.

Because he felt that he had a share in this championship trophy. If Dumars hadn't sold him, he would have already won his second championship ring.

Seeing that Ray Allen was determined to join the Pistons, he felt envious and jealous.

After a while, Ross and Love came to say hello to Li Xun.

Seeing Ross, Li Xun mourned for him again.

But Rose looked okay, and was not depressed because of Boozer's repentance.

It is estimated that he himself did not have any expectations for Boozer.

It's not once or twice that Boozer has repented.

As for Love, he still looks naive. He will be completely converted this season, and his career glory will also come.

After chatting for a while, the referee signaled that the game was about to start.

Guo Shiqiang began to arrange tactics on the sidelines, while Yao Ming and Li Xun bent over and listened carefully.

"My lord, you have to pass more balls tonight. Now is the time to play the dream team, not the time for you to mess around."

Guo Shiqiang first nodded at Sun Yue with a serious face.

Because the opponent in the previous game was too weak, Sun Yue also let himself go, shooting a lot of three-pointers every game.

Of course, his wild shots have almost no substantial impact on the game.

But tonight is different, Guo Shiqiang does not want to let go of this excellent opportunity to win the championship.

If he lost the game because of Sun Yuelang's shot, he might kill Sun Yue tonight and bury him in the outskirts of Istanbul.

"UA, give us some strength on the defensive end tonight."

"Dayao, take good care of yourself and don't hold yourself back."

"Li Xun, we must guard our restricted area."

Guo Shiqiang ordered the generals one by one.

"Dudududu!"

With the whistle of the referee, the battle of focus began.

Although it is the semi-finals, the number of viewers of this game will definitely far exceed that of the next finals.

Not only because the two warring parties have a super-popular team like the Dream Team, but also because of the combat power shown by the Chinese men's basketball team this year, it seems that there is every chance to kill the Dream Team.

In the opening game, Chandler jumped the ball to win over Yao Ming, and the Dream Team began to attack.

Every time he sees Chandler, Yao Ming can always think of the scene where he played against Chandler in the training camp ten years ago.

Tang Shuai came up with a double point guard lineup tonight, namely Rose and Westbrook.

Westbrook took the ball and went straight to the basket.

"Snapped!"

With just a crisp sound, Westbrook's ball was directly blocked by Li Xun who was guarding the basket.

The basketball was quickly snatched by Rose, and then he slammed towards the basket again. Although he failed to score, he also made Yao Ming a defensive foul.

Just after playing an offensive round, Li Xun immediately realized that something was wrong.

After all, Tang Shuai is an experienced coach. He can clearly understand the gap between the Dream Team and the Celestial Team.

So as soon as they come up, let the two calf point guards rush to the basket and make fouls.

You must know that in FIBA ​​games, five offenders leave the field.

With the style of Westbrook and Rose, their desperate breakthrough style of play, no matter how cautious the center is, he has to restrain his hands, otherwise he will have to leave the field soon.

Yao Ming got a headache, this matter will be troublesome.

There are six foul opportunities in the NBA, and because offense is encouraged, many whistles are not blown.

The huge tonnage of Yao Ming itself caused him to commit more fouls.

He doesn't know how long he can hold on to Ross and Westbrook's sudden madness tonight.

After the first quarter of the game, the Tianchao team took advantage of the point difference and won a very considerable advantage with 25:18.

But Yao Ming, who played for only 6 minutes, had already received two fouls, and Li Xun also had two fouls.

It's only been a quarter. If the two Optimus Primes are sent off by the five criminals, the Tianchao team will probably collapse soon.

At the beginning of the second quarter, Li Xun suggested to start a change.

Yao Ming didn't put them up, but put Dazhi and Battelle up, and Li Xun pulled him to the position of shooting guard.

With such a change, the effect immediately improved a lot.

Big Zhi and Battelle guarding the basket, the defensive strength must be far inferior to that of Li Xun and Yao Ming.

But these two people are not wooden stakes, and they should be able to play a certain blocking effect.

And Li Xun, who was maneuverable, took advantage of that fleeting moment and used his superhuman speed to rush up to defend and block the block.

Although the foul numbers of Dazhi and Daba are also rising, it seems that the inside line of the Tianchao team can carry it to the end of the game.

Li Xun's suggestion of change had a very good effect, causing Tang Shuai to shake his head and sigh.

The most effective tactic he could think of to counter the Twin Towers was useless now.

The main reason is that Li Xun is too against the sky. Even if he is on the outside, relying on his unpredictable speed, the defensive range can still cover Rose and Westbrook.

When the referee blew the whistle to end the game, Tang Shuai sighed.

Still lost.

Although such an ending has been expected, it is still difficult to accept it in my heart.

But the good news is that Li Xun's strength seems to have become stronger, and the Pistons are more confident of defending the title next season.

Didn't win the World Championships, and won the NBA championship next season, it seems pretty good.
