NBA: James wants to team up with me
Chapter 243: The Banana Boat brothers gathered in Las Vegas, planning to reunite?
Players are extremely attractive, so the Lakers have never lacked superstars, and their achievements are also the best team in NBA history. Although they are one championship behind the Celtics in terms of the number of championships, they As we all know, more than half of the Celtics' championships were won before the merger of the NBA and ABA.
Although the pre-merger champion was a real champion and would not lose points because of this, it is undeniable that when the two major basketball leagues run in parallel, both sides have a certain number of stars, so the competitiveness of the league itself is accordingly reduced.
After the merger was completed, the NBA expanded to 22 teams and attracted a large number of outstanding players from the ABA, which increased the league's competitiveness. There has never been a highly monopolized team as exaggerated as the Celtics' nine consecutive championships.
When the competitiveness improves, the team's signings and reinforcements will naturally be the key to winning. At this time, the geographical gap between the Celtics and the Lakers will become apparent.
After the 60s, although the Celtics, as a traditional giant, still won multiple championships and maintained their dominance in the league, they began to be significantly suppressed by the Lakers in terms of the number of championships they won.
Of course, the Celtics relied on their strong championship background and weak early competitiveness in the league. The Lakers were not much better. They relied on the attraction of the big city of Los Angeles. Although Boston is not a small city, it is not as good as The famous City of Angels is still lagging behind compared to the entertainment capital of the world.
As for now, the Celtics failed to bring together the Big Three to win the championship in 07 because of Wang Chong. Although with Durant, the team's strength is obviously getting stronger step by step, but it is the second-best team in the league. Compared with the Bulls and Lakers, they are naturally far behind.
The attractiveness of Los Angeles is really undeniable. After searching in the free market, they really caught a big fish.
On July 7, the Lakers officially announced that he would officially join the Los Angeles Lakers with a three-year, 5 million contract.
3 million in three years, an average of 2100 million per year. Although Kidd is 700 years old in 09, this contract is generally viewed as a high-quality and low-priced contract by the outside world.
上赛季基德在小牛队出战81场比赛,场均贡献9分6篮板8.7助攻2抢断,水平依旧在联盟一线控卫水准。
Offensive scoring has never been Kidd's strong point. His most powerful weapon on the court is his rich game experience, his organizational and support capabilities that are not inferior to Nash's, and his top perimeter defensive ability.
Even though he is very old, even two years later, he can still serve as the team's main point guard and help the Mavericks defeat the unbeatable Heat Big Three.
The purpose of the Lakers' introduction of Kidd can be said to be very clear. On the one hand, they want to use Kidd to restrict Billups' performance. During the finals, Billups almost was tortured to death by Fisher. It was like an adult beating a child. The same, but if it were Kidd, Billups wouldn't be so good.
After signing Kidd, the Lakers immediately officially renewed Bynum's contract. Although this will bring the Lakers' salary for the new season to $9500 million, which is ridiculously high and requires a high luxury tax penalty, but because of this A rather exaggerated lineup was assembled.
The starting five are Kidd, Kobe, Artest, Gasol, and Bynum.
There are also players such as Odom, Fisher, Vujacic, Shannon Brown, Jordan Farmar and others on the bench.
It's obvious that the Lakers, who have lost to the Finals for two consecutive years, are unwilling to suffer consecutive losses and are preparing to continue a showdown with the Bulls next season.
Watching the Bulls and Lakers take turns making big moves, James of the Cavaliers watched eagerly, but could only look at it with envy.
Unlike the Bulls' strategizing and the Lakers' lavish spending, the Cavaliers neither have the foresight advantage of a time traveler like Wang Chong, nor do they have the bright and bustling big city of Los Angeles. It is extremely difficult to introduce capable players in the offseason.
Moreover, James + O'Neal + Ray Allen have completely occupied the Cavaliers' salary space, leaving no room for signing other players.
What makes people even more desperate is that in the new season, O'Neal will be one year older. O'Neal, who is about to turn 37, will only gradually decline in competitive form. The Cavaliers can only rely on James and Ray Allen, let alone the Bulls in the Eastern Conference. , even the newly emerging Magic team may not be able to win surely.

While every team in the league is in full swing making reinforcements, Wang Chong has already started his own vacation plan.
Although he still has the task of intensive training this offseason, proper vacation relaxation is also necessary.
He first accompanied his girlfriend Jessica Alba to the premiere of Transformers 2.
Transformers 2 was released at the end of June 2009. With the success of the previous film, the second sequel has attracted a lot of attention.
Wang Chong did not participate in the production investment of Transformers 2 because he invested all his money in Avatar.
Even though the producers clearly knew that Transformers 2 would definitely make money, they were unwilling to take a piece of the pie from Wang Chong, a personal investor.
Of course, with Avatar as a cash cow, Wang Chong himself couldn't see the hundreds of millions in box office revenue of Transformers 2.
But even so, Wang Chong is still qualified to attend the premiere of Transformers 2. On the one hand, his girlfriend Jessica Alba is the star of this movie. On the other hand, the director Michael Bay is the same as the first one. , I asked Wang Chong for advice more than once when I encountered problems during the filming process.
Wang Chong did not hide his clumsiness and gave some suggestions based on the original details of Transformers 2. As a result, Michael Bay continued to add Wang Chong's name in the screenwriter column of Transformers 2, and he was barely considered the producer of this movie. one.
A basketball star crosses over to become a screenwriter. This thing sounds a bit magical. However, after Transformers 2 was released, although the outside world didn't think highly of the movie, the box office sales of this popcorn movie were really good, and it topped the list in North America two days after its release. Weekly box office tops, box office soaring.
The sexy and beautiful Jessica Alba has once again become popular all over the United States and even the world with her role as the heroine in the movie.
Although the role Wang Chong chose for Jessica was a vase role with little acting skills, it was indeed very suitable for Jessica Alba. She is not a talented person with particularly outstanding acting skills. Her appearance and figure are very talented. It is her biggest asset in Hollywood.
Being able to create a screen goddess with his own hands is also a bit of Wang Chong's bad taste. For this reason, Wang Chong has already thought about the role that Jessica is suitable to play next.
The most well-known female character in the future commercial film series is undoubtedly the main female character in the Marvel film series, Black Widow.
With her role as Black Widow, Scarlett Johansson immediately became one of the highest-paid actresses in the world. Especially her debut in Iron Man 2 was also a famous scene that shocked the world.
When Scarlett Johansson's appearance was at its peak, she did have the power to compete with Jessica, but it was limited to her face.
Jessica is 1 meters tall and has a curvy figure. In comparison, Scarlett Johansson, who is only 70 meters tall, is slightly inferior.
If Jessica can assume the screen role of Black Widow, she will be the most famous national goddess in Hollywood for at least the next ten years, and her worth will also rise.
It's just that this role is a bit difficult for Jessica, not in terms of action scenes. Jessica Alba's action skills are definitely not bad. After all, she is an actor who has filmed musicals and can perform difficult dances in front of the camera. .
But according to Marvel settings, Black Widow is white, while Jessica is of mixed race, with a slightly wheatish complexion.
But this isn't a big problem in Wang Chong's opinion. So what if the Black Widow is played by a Latin beauty? In the future, there will be little mermaids who look like black people. Those who are politically correct are almost turning into flounders, and they are ruining their outlook. Moreover, in the movie, makeup and lighting can also be used to make Jessica look fairer. There is no problem at all in playing this role.
This movie started filming in the summer of 09 and was released in 2010. It is currently in the process of casting. Jessica has already participated in the casting audition. All she has to do is wait for news.
Since there were many promotional activities after the movie was released, Wang Chong spent a few days with Jessica, and the latter followed the crew to various places to participate in movie promotion activities.
Wang Chong's next stop is Las Vegas.
The main purpose of his trip to Las Vegas was to watch Curry play.
Curry, who is about to represent the Bulls in the new season, as a first-year rookie, will naturally participate in the summer league held in mid-July.
As a player acquired by the Bulls at a huge cost, Curry has received a lot of attention, and his own No. 6 pick in the first round is also a relatively high pick.
Just as Wang Chong thought, Curry performed very well in the summer league, averaging 26 points per game and shooting 44% from three-point range. Although this was only a summer league, the level was low and the intensity of the confrontation was poor. A few people can even score super high scores of 50+.
While Wang Chong was watching Curry's performance, he also "coincidentally" met several acquaintances in Las Vegas.
"Hey, King!"
The familiar voice made Wang Chong look back, and what he saw was Wade's honest smile.
"I didn't expect you to come to Las Vegas to watch the game. It's rare."
It is a very common phenomenon for NBA players to go to Las Vegas to watch the summer league every offseason, and everyone knows that watching games is just an excuse. They come to this world's casino city more. Have a good rest.
This is not surprising at all, including the basketball god Michael Jordan and the famous celebrity Charles Barkley. They all love this method. After all, everyone is tens of millions or even billionaires, with a lot of money to spend.
Wade didn't come alone. He was accompanied by leaders from the 03 class such as James and Anthony.
However, unlike Wade, who competed in the NCAA with Wang Chong in the same university, James and Anthony did not have a very good relationship with Wang Chong off the court.
There is no way, who will let Wang Chong, who is in the same position, always be on top of them, causing them a huge amount of psychological damage every season?
Without saying anything else, now they are walking on the street, and even the neighbors are pointing at them.
"Look, isn't that James/Anthony? It's been 9002 years, why haven't they won the championship yet? The kid next door, Wang Chong, has already won three championships. I heard that they didn't look down on Wang Chong before. , it’s really hilarious!”
Wang Chong smiled and greeted Wade, and at the same time saw James and Anthony with expressionless faces not far away.
Raising his eyebrows slightly, Wang Chong smelled something unusual.
The four Banana Boat brothers will become household names in the league in the future, and the relationship between the four is quite harmonious.
But it was a bit intriguing that the three of them actually came to Las Vegas together during the offseason.
Especially Wang Chong, as a time traveler, is very aware of the major events that will happen in the league in the next few years. The most sensational ones will undoubtedly be James' decision next summer and the formation of the Heat's Big Three.
Are the Heat's Big Three strong? The answer is undoubtedly, two championships in four years. Although it sounds a bit lame, you must know that in the next ten years or so, apart from the Lakers and Heat, only one team in the NBA will achieve two consecutive championships. Team, that is the Golden State Warriors.
Of course, the Warriors have won three championships in four years, including two consecutive championships.
The Warriors, who also have Curry, Durant, Thompson, Green and others, are truly stronger than the Heat and even crush them.
But even so, Wang Chong doesn't think his Bulls will lose to the Heat.
First of all, the Heat need a year to adjust the lineup and change from the dual-core James and Way to the single-core tactical model of James before they can reach the strongest model during the period of the Heat's Big Three. That was already the 2011-12 season, three years later.
In three years, Wang Chong, who has a system plug-in nearby, will inevitably increase his strength to a quite exaggerated level, and the Bulls players will not be too bad either.
First of all, Garnett can still maintain a high competitive level, averaging 16+8 per game.
Marc Gasol would also grow up and win the Defensive Player of the Year DPOY the following year.
What is slightly problematic is the Bulls' back line, or the two point guards.
Billups no longer has the strength of a top point guard in the 11-12 season, and the number of injuries has also begun to increase.
For Curry, the 11-12 season was also his most disastrous season. In order to completely cure his ankle injury, Curry chose to have surgery this season. He was plagued by injuries in the regular season and only played 26 games. Averaged 14.7 points and 5.3 assists, which was the worst game of his career.
But Wang Chong is very clear about the injuries that troubled Curry's performance, and he also clearly remembers the surgery that Curry underwent to regain his life, and in the following seasons, he gradually reached the top and became the top star in history.
In this regard, as long as Wang Chong can give Curry some suggestions in advance, it should be avoided.
As long as Curry can stay healthy, or even as long as he can play about 70% of his strength, plus the absolute advantages of Garnett and Gasol inside, against the Heat's typical defensive counterattack and fast break, the inside will be weak. The team's probability of winning the game will be quite high.
Of course, I'm talking about the Heat's Big Three of James, Wade and Bosh.
Looking at the heated play between James Wade and Anthony, things are likely to develop in an uncontrollable direction. (End of chapter)
