Basketball starts with breathing

The Mavericks also played on the same day. They lost to the Bulls at home. Wang Zhizhi's outstanding performance made the fans scold Cuban, the owner, for being an idiot.

In fact, the Mavericks played well offensively. Nowitzki and Marbury scored well, but their defense was not good. In this game, the Bulls scored 130 points, while they only scored 124 points. .

Five Bulls scored in double figures, and Wang Zhizhi scored 38 points alone.

The media have expressed that they are not optimistic about how far the Mavericks can go in the playoffs, because they beat the weaker teams and abuse them. Once they encounter a tougher team, they will stop.

Especially their defense, if a team can't even do a good job of defense, how can they win the game.

In fact, the Suns this season were not favored at the beginning. Many fans thought that Nash's defense was stretched. As long as the opponent played crazy against Nash, the Suns' defensive formation would naturally collapse.

However, with the development of the schedule, people were surprised to find that the only teams in the league that can fight against Nash are those teams with excellent offensive backlines.

The key is that the guards of these teams must also have excellent long-range shooting ability in order to blow up Nash.

Because you want to go inside, Lu Yu's big hot pot is waiting for you there.

The Suns' best defense is inside. Haslem and Lu Yu, who played in the NBA for the first time this year, built the Suns' inside barrier together, allowing the Suns to have the lowest scoring rate inside the league.

So there are really few teams that can win the Suns. The Warriors have won because of Arenas' explosive scoring.

On this day, Suns owner Colangelo called D'Antoni to his office.

"Mike, I feel that our team has a chance to win the championship this year, but I read the team's analysis report and said that our team's perimeter defense ability is not good. Do you want to trade a perimeter defender?"

Colangelo is still very willing to spend money in order to improve the team's record.

Players, coaches, general managers, owners, chairman of the nba rules committee, chairman of the American Basketball Association...

Gathering such a group of people is enough to fill a conference room.If a guy has played so many roles, when he makes a basketball statement, you need to pay attention.

Jerry Colangelo is one such person.

Slow-talking but loud, Colangelo, in his slouchy suit, still has hints of the athletes of yesteryear.

In Lu Yu's previous life, Colangelo sold the Suns to Savor last year.

That's right, it's the number one iron cock in the NBA.

2 In Lu Yu's previous life, in 2004, American businessman Robert Sarver bought the Suns, a struggling western team, for US$4.01 million.

For this one owner, his timing on the basketball court is good.

At that time, the Suns had been weak in the West for several years. The former core controller Marbury was cleared out of the team. The Suns only had a group of players who were not very eye-catching at the time. Wall bought the bottom.

However, in the Suns, which is generally attractive in the player market, after signing their third star guard Nash from Dallas with an experimental situation, and then paired with Anthony's small ball tactics and Stoudemire, Marion, Joe Johnson vitality.

...

A year after the boss took over, he turned into a strong team in the West, and has gone through many years with a powerful posture in the West.

However, not long after the Suns became a strong team, and even after more than ten years of decline and take-off, the Suns owner Savor has always shown himself as a representative image of an "iron rooster". Rimi's attitude towards this owner is also much lower For praise, call him "Silly Wo".

Profit-seeking is the essence of businessmen, but sometimes appropriate additional investment is actually a kind of investment wisdom.

Judging from the type of team owner, Suns owner Savor is an extremely conservative and greedy representative.

Also because of the issue of Ayton's contract renewal, the boss who was unwilling to pay the maximum salary rarely re-entered everyone's discussion.

The reason why the Suns, which took off in the 04/05 season, failed to go further in the playoffs was largely because the offense lacked a guarantee. At that time, Joe Johnson, who was a strong point in singles, was injured in the playoffs. The Suns lack the changing weapons and techniques of positional offense.

In fact, this is also the shortcoming of the Suns in the lineup in the next few years, and it will be more obvious in the playoffs.

Including Stoudemire's departure from the team and Nash's departure to Los Angeles are closely related to Savor's refusal to spend money.

Of course, this owner didn't end well in the end. He became the second owner of the Clippers to be forced to sell the team by the league.

The current Suns are owned by Colangelo.

Who is Colangelo, a man who is willing to spend money for the team no matter what.

What did Colangelo do after selling the team?
As the head of the American men's basketball dream team, after he took office, the Olympic men's basketball gold medals have never been left behind, and all of them have been won by the American men's basketball team.

I don't know if he didn't sell the team this time, and whether he will be the head of the US men's basketball team.

In short, he wants to strengthen, and he is willing to spend money, as long as it can help the Suns win the championship.

So far in the history of the Suns team, they have never won a championship.

In order to win the championship, Colangelo is willing to give everything, as long as the team can win the championship, even if he kneels down in front of Lu Yu.

Maybe the owners of American teams like to kneel down players, and Lu Yu, the owner of the Warriors in his previous life, also knelt down to Thompson.

When D'Antoni heard that he could trade for a defensive champion, his heart moved, but after thinking about it, he felt a headache, because a defensive champion came, where should Nash put it?

You can't put Nash on the bench, can you?

Richardson had played point guard before, and he found a defensive champion to play at the second position, and Nash led the bench to play. This idea flashed through his mind.

Because when Lu Yu and Nash are on the court at the same time, the court is equivalent to two engines, and when Lu Yu organizes, Nash is actually equivalent to a shooter.

Only when Lu Yu was off the court did Nash begin to show his offensive talent.

To be honest, D'Antoni really likes Nash, because Nash's style of play is the running and bombing he wants, but Lu Yu is obviously more efficient when organizing. Although the running and bombing is not what he wants, the rhythm seems to be Not slow.

"The trade can be traded, but who is the trade?" D'Antoni did not reject the boss's request, but asked a rhetorical question.

...

Regarding the selection of candidates, Colangelo has long been prepared.

After all, he was born in the first batch of professional managers in the league.

"I like Shane Battier of the Grizzlies, what do you think of him?"

"It's okay, but the Grizzlies won't let people go, will they?"

"How do you know if you don't try it? You may not understand that the owner of the Grizzlies actually owed me and Bass in order to move to Memphis."

D'Antoni froze for a moment.

If Lu Yu were here, he would suddenly realize why the Grizzlies were robbed by the Lakers back then, but pretended to be stupid and kept silent, not at all like they were at a disadvantage.

The nba league is not only a basketball league, but also a place for these businessmen to get along with the world.

Do you really think that the team owners will discuss such things as I beat you today and you win me tomorrow? They sit together and talk more about business.

However, the transaction is obviously not completed so quickly, and there is a high probability that it will be stuck before the transaction deadline.

The Suns defeated the Eastern underdog Magic at home. The Magic has become worse since Francis came. Their problem is not at all who the guard is. Their problem is that this team has never had its own tactics.

McGrady can't save the Magic, Francis can do it?

Francis hasn't practiced a three-pointer until now, do you really think he can rush into the inside to solve the battle every game?Now which team in the league doesn't have all the insiders guarding the basket like a pillar.

But you let Francis practice three-pointers?
Don't make trouble, he is either in a nightclub, or on the way to the nightclub, and he has no time to practice at all.

The Suns are actually not playing well. Rumors have spread that the team is going to trade for an outside defensive player. The main players are fine, but the substitute players are panicking.

Because they originally wanted to play better and better in the Suns, but they didn't expect a deal to come soon.

How sad it is.

The Suns played away against the Raptors. The Suns who came to Canada seemed to be relieved, but the substitute players were still struggling. They didn't know whether they should perform better or worse.

If you perform better, you will be considered valuable by the team, right?

If the performance is not good, the team will think that this person is useless and deal with it.

Fortunately, the Raptors are also rookies. Seeing that the Suns' bench lineup was not performing well, they didn't want to seize the opportunity and beat them up. But when the main Suns came back, they were pressed to the ground and rubbed against the ground, screaming and dying. .

On the 22nd, the Suns continued their away game against the Wizards.

Since Jordan retired, the Wizards have given up on themselves, and many players on this team are unwilling to be traded because their boss is too dishonest.

The NBA is like this. Many players go to which team they go for.

Just like Lu Yu's former iron rooster owner of the Suns just mentioned, he was forced to sell the team by the league in an accident, but it turned out that the former owner of the United States, ***, wanted to buy the team.

If *** bought the team, many players would come and join them.

Because *** is the league's first black owner.

Don't underestimate the issue of skin color, a skin color can change many things, and skin color is like an insurmountable gap in this league.

...

With his complexion and charismatic personality, once he becomes the owner of the Suns, he will definitely attract many players to join him.

Just like Rivers.

He was the only black champion coach in Lu Yu's previous life. When Kaka and George joined the Clippers, they all went for him.

Later, after Rivers left, the team changed to another head coach, who was also another black champion coach.

Guided by Perch Lu.

Anyway, the Wizards did their own crimes, and they have basically been abolished. History has proved that the Wizards have been abolished for many years. Logically, Washington, where the Wizards are located, is a fairly attractive city.

But there is a reason for not being able to attract good stars to join.

Bill, the future star of the Wizards, was once very puzzled: "I don't know why? It is difficult for the team to let free agents come to us. We can only rely on the draft to train players. These have always been our shortcomings here. We must find them. way to get players to join.”

Durant is a native of Washington.

But he said so.

"I don't want to bring it up, but I just don't want to play at home," Durant explained. "It's not about the fans."

Many players did not explain the specific reasons, because it is impossible to say, but they will definitely not go, this has become a habit of not becoming.

Because in the eyes of many players, Jordan was once their god.

After Jordan retired, Kwame Brown relaxed a lot, but this time facing Lu Yu, he found the feeling of being devastated. This season, he was often suspended by the Wizards because he complained that he played too little time and was often absent from the team. In training, he was often caught driving for speeding outside the court, which made the team feel that he was difficult to manage.

The Suns beat the Wizards by 33 points, and Lu Yu easily scored a triple-double again.

However, he noticed that the atmosphere of the team was not right. All the players seemed to be worried about their future. Lu Yu knew that the team owner might want to trade, but he found the wrong person and found D'Antoni with a big mouth. .

D'Antoni's tactic is to use that set of running and bombing. If it weren't for Lu Yu, he would probably be fired this season.

The point is that he likes to talk nonsense, saying that Lu Yu's running and bombing is his tactical thinking.

Lu Yu said it was the head coach's tactic to save face to the media, but he really took it seriously and often boasted in front of the media.

He also has a big mouth in the team, and he likes to joke with the players casually.

At best, he is approachable, and at worst, he is not as majestic as a head coach. No wonder he failed to lead any team in his previous life. In the end, he had the best record in the Suns, because Nash was so useful at that time.

Lu Yu was too lazy to talk to the head coach.

He can't do anything about this kind of thing, because it's going to rain and Niang is going to get married, so what can he do, he can only try his best to ensure that he doesn't lose during this period of time, and when the dust settles on the deal, there will be no problem.

But he was also very curious, who was it that was going to be traded?
The Suns ended their game with the Wizards and started flying to New York. They played the All-Star Game here a while ago, and this is happening again. Fortunately, the Knicks are also a bad team now.

It seems that the boss chose a day to trade players. He deliberately chose a time when the schedule was full of underdogs, because he was afraid that the team would lose because of unstable morale.

It was an easy win against the Knicks, but after the game, Lu Yu hurriedly ended the interview on the grounds that he was too tired.

No way, every time I come to New York, I have to go out to plow the land at night.

Whether the earth is bad or not, Lu Yu doesn't know.

But the cow is very tired.

As a result, when the plowing land was not finished, the mobile phone rang, and Lu Yu glanced at the text message sent by Snoopy: "Sean Battier has traded to the sun."

Lu Yu was stunned.

Scarlett Johansson hammered his chest coquettishly: "How can you be distracted while plowing the land?"

Not distracted?
Take the kidney!
