The NBA started with helping Iverson win the championship

Chapter 240 Against the New York Knicks

The current junior has not experienced the trough of life, so after playing this kind of record, he swelled up directly.

In his rookie season, he can probably average a triple-double per game, which seems to be the level of a magician in the new era.

For a while, the juniors also started to form a group of five and six, and the voices in the team became much louder.

When Li Xun saw it, the time for this deal had come.

If you want to trade players, you usually have to find a reason. Now that the younger brother is drifting after his performance, this is the best reason.

Let Dumars contact the Suns, try to take out the juniors and trade their Dragic.

The Suns just made a deal last week, and they made a blockbuster deal with the Magic.

The team's No. [-] scorer Jason Richardson and other bargaining chips were taken out, and the old Carter and Polish hammer Gortat were exchanged from the Magic.

Those who didn't know it thought that the ancestors of the Suns had some kind of life-saving grace for the Magic, because this deal was absolutely bloody for the Suns.

This season, Stoudemire went to the Knicks to make a lot of money, and there is only one left in the Suns who can play inside.

The key point is that Xiao Luo is not the kind of insider who can be fed by feeding cakes. Even if there is an inside data improvement machine like Nash, Xiaoluo is now starting every game, and the data is only 6 points and 3 rebounds, which is really embarrassing.

But Gortat is different. He is a pure pie-feeding insider. As long as you feed him pie, he can play good statistics.

In the last week, the Suns won consecutive victories directly after the transaction was completed.

Under normal circumstances, the Suns have also achieved the third best result in the Western Conference this year.

Facts have proved that the Suns' outstanding record for so many years has nothing to do with Stoudemire. With him or without him, as long as the Suns have Nash, they are still very competitive.

When it was heard that the Pistons were going to sell the younger brother who had been in the limelight recently, the Suns executives were also dumbfounded.

Isn't this purely sending warmth?

The key is that they only need one backup point guard Dragic.

Dragic is now playing as a substitute for Nash, and his strength can't be said to be bad, but because he has the same problems as Nash and poor defensive thieves, his training potential does not seem to be very great.

But the younger brother is different. This guy's current ability is quite balanced. Even if he is placed at the point guard position, he seems to be able to play.

The Suns' current perimeter trio is Nash, Carter and Grant Hill.

Three old stone level players.

After the young junior came, he could even serve as a substitute for these three at the same time.

Either way, the deal was an absolute bloodbath.

Now the Suns are a little uncertain, because the trade offer from the Pistons is so tempting, it seems like a trap.

Except for one Dragic, the Pistons only need one first-round pick, and then they will send out their juniors.

As for the Suns' first-round pick, with their current record, it is obviously impossible for them to be so high. There is a high probability that it should be around 25th.

How much is such a first-round pick worth?

The Suns management held a meeting overnight to study whether there were any hidden traps in this deal.

As a result, I did not research it all night.

If there is a trap, it can only be in Dragic or the first round pick.

Either Dragic has a lot of potential that has not been developed and was spotted by the Pistons.

Either the Pistons are betting the Suns won't make the playoffs this year.

Obviously neither is possible.

Dragic is not a rookie. If he has potential, he would have already discovered it. How can we wait until now.

As a white point guard, he doesn't have the speed of Bai Qiao, nor does he have the overall view of Nash, but his physical fitness is still poor, and he has a hot eye for defense.

It doesn't look like a potential stock in any way.

In the end, the Suns still made a decision, regardless of whether there were any traps, such a deal that was clearly giving warmth, if it was not taken, it would be too bad.

I am afraid that Sun fans will not agree.

In this way, the Pistons made a deal one month after the start of the game.

He sent out his junior Stephenson, and got Dragic from the Suns plus a 2011 first-round pick from the Suns.

Dumars felt that he was at a loss. According to his thinking, he wanted to get the Suns' first-round pick in 2013.

At that time, Nash was probably about to retire, and his combat power had declined sharply. The Suns must have a high first-round pick.

It's a pity that Sun is not a fool, so he didn't agree anyway.

In the end, Li Xun strongly suggested that the 2011 first-round pick be taken.

The draft in 2011 was really exciting. Even though there is still a long time before now, Li Xun has already started to prepare.

Don't look at the Suns' first-round pick is only about 25th, but this pick can still select very high-end stars.

For example, Jimmy Butler with the 30th overall pick, or Bojan Bogdavic with the 31st overall pick.

Two top small forwards.

It is equivalent to saying that a junior is exchanged for an all-star point guard Dragic, plus an all-star small forward. If this is not a blood profit, what is it?
In addition to these two, the 11th rookie class also includes Leonard, Ou Shenxian, Tang Shen, Kemba Walker, Weapon Master, Tobias Harris, Orc Faried, Reggie Jackson, Qian Dele Parsons and Isaiah Thomas, the strongest 175 young assassins on the surface.

The key is that apart from Ou Shenxian, these people's rankings are not particularly high.

Now that Li Xun has started to accumulate a large number of draft picks, he will be able to show his talents in the 11th draft.

It is not an exaggeration to say that these rookies in the 11th class are enough for Li Xun to start anew and create another invincible team.

Dumars has now also become a hands-off shopkeeper.

Before, he would ask about Li Xun's trading purpose, but now he doesn't even ask.

He seems to have become an office worker. Li Xun gets a report here, and Dumars looks for other teams to trade according to the report.

"I don't know why the Pistons traded me."

"I only know that the Pistons and Li Xun will definitely regret it. I am the most versatile rookie in this league."

"Even more versatile than Li Xun."

"They will regret it!"

Junior brother Stephenson caught the Pistons and Li Xun complaining at the press conference of joining the Suns, and released bold words.

He wasn't completely out of his mind, and he also knew that Li Xun was operating the deal.

When Li Xun found out, he just smiled and didn't take it seriously.

To be reasonable, the younger brother is indeed omnipotent enough.

But his omnipotence means that he can do everything, but he is not good at anything.

After joining the Suns, without Li Xun to help him improve his statistics, it is not clear whether he can gain a firm foothold in the Suns.

The Pistons next game against the New York Knicks.

The Knicks have completely broken up this year.

Li Xun originally heard that during the offseason, Anthony had conflicts with the Nuggets management, thinking that the Nuggets and the Knicks would only trade Anthony.

As a result, after the start of the season, the trade between the two sides directly shocked the entire league.

The Knicks and the Nuggets made a shocking deal involving [-] players. In the end, the Knicks bought both Anthony and Billups from the Nuggets.

Billups probably never dreamed that he ate melons on his own head.

According to his plan, he is going to play soy sauce for a season after Melon leaves the Nuggets, and then find a chance to return to the Pistons.

As a result of such a transaction, it seems that the Knicks also have a chance to win the championship this year.

Anthony, Billups and Stoudemire, this lineup is still very strong.

In fact, there have been many blockbuster deals this season, but because of the Heat's Big Three, many people have ignored the Knicks' deals.

Of course, the Knicks did not achieve results, which is also a reason.

But now the Knicks are still very optimistic and are considered to be one of the Big Three teams in the Eastern Conference.

The Big Three teams in the Eastern Conference are now the Pistons, Heat and Knicks.

As for the tyrannical Green Kai and Magic in the past few years, they are no longer competitive.

Especially Lukai, because Ray Allen was signed by the Pistons, their current combat power has declined even more.

It has been a month since the start of the match, and they will have a [-]% winning rate.

Although the playoffs are not a big problem, if you want to go further, it is estimated that there is no way.

The Magic traded Carter last season and found it was not working, and sold Carter again this season.

This buying and selling, I almost lost my pants.

What's even more outrageous is that there is now news in the league that the Magic is preparing to trade Arenas with Lewis to the Wizards.

What is certain is that once this deal is completed, the Magic will be even cooler.

The day after the deal was completed, Dragic showed up in Detroit with his luggage.

When joining the team, Li Xun received a system prompt.

Sure enough, the bond between the tough guy brothers succeeded.

However, it may be because the two people's compulsion is not high, so the bond attribute added is not very good.

[Tough Guy Brothers]: Increase the host's capping attribute by 1 point and organization attribute by 2 points.

This promotion is tasteless and has no decisive impact on Li Xun's strength.

It's normal to think about it, Li Xun's current combat power, if he wants to continue to improve, it is actually very difficult.

Even if he now gets a bouncing 99 point reward, in fact, it will not improve his overall strength much.

At most, it is to make Li Xun's game more enjoyable, so that he can dunk a few more baskets.

"No matter how small a mosquito is, it's still meat. It's good to have an improvement."

Li Xun is still quite optimistic.

At eight o'clock in the evening, the Knicks will start to enter.

Seeing the Knicks lineup, Li Xun couldn't help being happy.

Starting lineup: Stoudemire, Turiaf, Anthony, Landry Fields plus Billups.

Stoudemire, Anthony and Billups are of course very strong, but it is outrageous that Turiaf and Fields can enter the starting lineup.

Turiaf could only be a drinking fountain watcher beside Kobe, who led the team alone.

At that time, the ghost lineup of the Lakers, even if Turiaf had a little ability, could be mixed in the starting lineup.

As a result, he just couldn't get along.

Now after arriving at the Knicks, he has been mixed into the starting fourth position.

No offense, no rebounds, no defense, no real work, nothing left.

Even the current elderly Rashid may be able to beat Turiaf.

As for Fields, it's even more outrageous.

This guy is a rookie of the year and came from the famous Stanford University.

But his prestigious school is not a prestigious school in basketball.

In terms of NCAA level, Stanford belongs to the bottom of the bottom.

Fields can be selected, that's really an honor for the ancestors.

In addition, this guy is a good friend of Jeremy Lin, who once let Jeremy Lin live on his sofa.

If they can do this step, then the relationship must be very good.

It is worth mentioning that Jeremy Lin also participated in this year's draft, but he lost.

Of course Li Xun knew about this, but he had no intention of pulling Jeremy Lin.

As an American, does he have to pull himself out?

As for strength, the All-Star starter Lowry has to play as a backup point guard for the Pistons. After Dragic comes, he can only guard the drinking fountains.

No one thinks that Jeremy Lin is better than Lowry or Dragic, right?
"Hey Lee, congratulations on your winning streak."

After Billups came on stage, he greeted Li Xun warmly.

"Chauncey, congratulations on coming to a metropolis like New York."

Li Xun greeted with a smile.

Billups waved his hand, "What does this kind of metropolis have to do with me? They can make money in the metropolis, but I have no part in it."

This is very true.

Popular players like Stoudemire and Anthony can make money in New York.

And grass roots like Billups are actually pretty much the same wherever they play.

In his rookie season, Billups was tricked by Walker, a fat head, and QJ was sued by a woman who lost his footsteps, which made him less feminine throughout his career.

Therefore, he is not blessed to enjoy the unique benefits of this metropolis.

After chatting for a while, Anthony also came over to say hello to Li Xun.

The two didn't have any intersection, but they didn't have any enmity either, it was a friendship they met by chance.

The game officially begins.

Yao Ming also played tonight, presumably he came for Stoudemire.

Since joining the Pistons, Yao Ming seems to have changed. Compared with the Rockets, Yao Ming's aggressiveness has increased by at least ten times!
Yao Ming would never miss a game like Stoudemire's tonight.

At the beginning of the game, Li Xun and Yao Ming teamed up to ravage the basket, hitting Stoudemire and Turiaf who couldn't find the north.

If Stoudemire had a strong helper at the [-]th position, the situation might not be so miserable.

After all, Stoudemire himself is a fourth position, and he has a natural disadvantage in playing center forward.

The inside line is blooming frequently, and the Knicks actually don't have much advantage on the outside line.

Tang Shuai made a good tactical arrangement before the game, that is, he kept fighting against Fields' shortcoming.

The Knicks are now truly interpreting what is called the barrel theory.

Turiaf and Fields, who are the shortest, have become their fatal flaws.

Maybe playing underdogs, but it's not so obvious.

But as soon as he encountered a lineup like the Pistons, he immediately showed his original shape.

DeRozan has been absent for half a month, and his hands are already itchy. In addition, he is facing Fields again tonight, so there are many opportunities to make calls.

"Shh!"

"Shh!"

"Shh!"

The sound of various mid-range shots came, and DeRozan felt very good tonight.

Anthony is currently being guarded by Artest, and he can't make any waves.

I have to say that Artest's price/performance ratio is really super high.

Especially when defending Anthony, who is good at three threats, Artest's defensive effect is excellent.
