NBA: James wants to team up with me

At the end of July, the Bulls finally made a move in the free market, signing Shaquille O'Neal and Tracy McGrady with two veterans' basic salaries of 7 million.

These two signings have little impact in the league, but they have attracted widespread attention. After all, O'Neal and McGrady have both been brilliant before. One is among the top ten in the league and the most dominant center in history, and the other is relying on His elegant style of play has attracted countless fans, and he ranks among the top four shooting guards in the league.

Although both of them are in their twilight years and no longer as brave as they once were, and even if they can get a contract in the league, it will be difficult for them to perform in the new season, at least the fans of both sides are very satisfied.

Even if he is reduced to a substitute, his favorite star can still play on the court, and he may win the championship with the Bulls. Isn't this happy enough?

McGrady has never won a championship in his career. If he can win a championship trophy before retiring, even if he is not the core player of the team, it will make McGrady's fans realize their dreams.

As for O'Neal, he already has five championships in hand. With one more championship, O'Neal's total career championships will reach six, surpassing Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and tying Michael Jordan.

Everyone knows that Kareem Abdul-Jabbar has six championships and six MVPs, and as the historical scoring leader, why is his historical ranking lower than Jordan, who has six championships and four MVPs? First, because Kareem Abdul-Jabbar only has two FMVPs, there is a huge gap between him and Jordan, who has six FMVPs.

The second point is that both the MVP and the championship of Kareem Abdul-Jabbar are watered down. The two MVPs he won in the ABA are far less valuable than the MVP after the NBA merger. And Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s sixth championship , ranking outside the top three of the team in terms of both scoring and rebounding, and is no longer part of the team's main core.

O'Neal's fans are also looking forward to the fact that after O'Neal retires in the future, six championships will elevate his historical status.

Perhaps when he first retired, people remembered this incident and did not think that O'Neal's sixth championship counted. However, as time goes by, fewer and fewer fans will gradually understand this period, and many do not understand the history of the league. Fans who see O'Neal's resume will be amazed by the dominance of the Sharks, who can actually win six championships like Jordan.

This is just like how many people don't know that the so-called most dominant O'Neal is the star who has been swept out the most among NBA superstars. He has been swept out by his opponents six times in his entire career.

And with such strong dominance, O'Neal only has one regular season MVP, which is in the same league as Olajuwon, David Robinson, and Kevin Garnett, not to mention Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's six MVPs. Well, even Duncan has two MVPs, ahead of O'Neal.

The two signings, which have been highly discussed, are generally not well regarded in the league industry. Even many expert commentators believe that the Bulls made a bad move.

"Neither Shaq nor Tracy are the players that the Bulls need now. The Bulls are not lacking in veteran experience. Garnett and Billups are both veterans who have been in the league for more than ten years. They have rich game experience. If you want the two of them to be effective on the field, there are obviously other more suitable candidates on the free market."

"The only reason we can think of for the Bulls to sign these two people is to attract attention and attract fans of the two superstars to pay attention to the Bulls. But is it really worth it? The Bulls, who have already won three consecutive championships and created a dynasty, will The goal should be to play while Garnett and Billups still have the strength to win four consecutive championships and follow the footsteps of the Lakers' OK combination, rather than resting on our laurels and being complacent."

"The league today is completely different from before! With the formation of the Big Three in Miami, an unprecedented rival has been born. At the same time, the Lakers in the West are still waiting for an opportunity to take revenge. The enemy is as strong as the forest. The attitude of the Bulls, It’s hard to say whether I can continue to defend my title.”

Of course, James also saw the Bulls' two signings and said he just wanted to laugh.

Although the various insults from Cleveland fans in the past few days have made him feel a little unhappy, as long as he thinks about being able to team up with Wade and Bosh, two outstanding partners, to fight against Wang Chong in Miami, James will feel inexplicably comfortable.

At this time, the Bulls signed two veterans in a row. In his opinion, Wang Chong was anxious and began to sign these useless veterans in a hurry.

Like O'Neal, James has partnered with him for a season this season. No one knows better than him that the Shark is old and has a complete side effect on the field. The offensive end is inefficient and the defensive end cannot guard people. When he is on the field, he still It's better to fight when he's not there.

Not to mention McGrady, O'Neal was still able to play in the game. McGrady was injured and stopped during the 09-10 season. His condition declined so fast that he was almost unable to play.

Originally, James was a little worried about whether the Bulls would choose to trade the aging Garnett and Billups in exchange for one or two outstanding star players because they formed the Heat's Big Three. In that case, the Bulls would With Wang Chong + Curry + Gasol plus a top star in his prime, it may really pose a huge threat to them.

Now it seems that he is still worrying too much.

While he breathed a sigh of relief, James inadvertently became angry.

"Wait, Wang Chong! I will definitely repay you double the humiliation you gave me before!"
-
Regarding the messy things in the league, Wang Chong didn't pay much attention to it. The signing of Tracy McGrady and O'Neal was just a move of love, and he didn't expect them to really strengthen the Bulls. The current Bulls are already strong enough. With Gasol's new contract, the team's salary next season is close to 8000 million. Although it is still far inferior to the Lakers' exaggerated 9500 million, the Bulls owner still needs to pay a luxury tax of close to 1200 million for this.

This is not a small number, especially since this money is given away in vain, and there is no profit. If it is not painful, it must be false.

But precisely because of this, the Bulls retained last season's winning lineup, and Gasol's stay on the team allowed the Bulls to have no shortcomings on the court, and with the growth of young players such as Curry and Danny Green, , the team will be even stronger in the new season.

Wang Chong is not worried about the team's problems next season at all. What worries him now is his proposal plan.

Yes, he plans to officially propose to Jessica Alba this summer.

To this end, Wang Chong spent a huge amount of money to customize a diamond ring worth 500 million US dollars as an engagement ring.

A few days later, on the cruise ship purchased by Wang Chong on the beach in Hawaii, he formally proposed to Jessica.

Jessica was still a little confused at first, because according to Wang Chong's habit, the offseason vacation lasts until the end of July at most. Starting in August, he will start training to prepare for the new season. This kind of lying-down indulgence is very rare.

Now she finally understood why.

Wang Chong has been waiting here for the custom-made diamond ring to be delivered.

You don’t even need any affectionate words, this kind of sparkling jewelry will always capture a girl’s heart.

Although Wang Chong's proposal ceremony was a bit old-fashioned, the process was very smooth.

Jessica was so moved that she burst into tears, and couldn't wait to nod in agreement. Wang Chong, who successfully embraced the beauty, passed through another important stage in his life.

Soon, paparazzi based in Hawaii discovered the astonishingly large dove egg diamond ring on Jessica's hand, and they immediately realized what was happening.

In less than half a day, the entire Internet was flooded with news that Wang Chong's proposal to Jessica was successful.

In recent years, under the guidance of Wang Chong, Jessica has successively filmed second-tier film roles including Transformers and Iron Man. Her popularity is quite high in the United States and even around the world. She has a tendency to become the number one goddess in the United States. Her angelic face has been voted the most beautiful woman in the world by major magazines many times.

Countless men are extremely envious of Wang Chong who has captured the heart of the goddess, and many even feel that Wang Chong is not worthy of Jessica at all.

This is not surprising. Although Wang Chong's achievements in the NBA are enough to secure his position as the number one player, in the United States, basketball can only rank third among the four major sports, and his social influence is completely different from that of the entertainment industry. There is no comparison. Jessica, who is already at the top of the Hollywood pyramid, is higher than Wang Chong in terms of popularity and celebrity status.

But the more reason is still based on envy, jealousy and hatred towards Wang Chong.

Now that Wang Chong has successfully proposed to Jessica, the majority of Jessica fans are eager to kill Wang Chong.

Of course, this is just the opinion of ordinary people outside.

In the Hollywood industry, not many people think that Wang Chong is not worthy of Jessica.

As an independent investor, the success of several consecutive movies, especially Avatar, has given Wang Chong a good reputation in the industry. Many Hollywood directors even hope that the movies they direct can get some investment from Wang Chong, not because they are short of money. , purely for the sake of getting Wang Chong’s blessing.

This is a big shot who has never been exposed to the film and television industry before, but he invests in one movie and makes a profit!
People who are more familiar with the process know very well that Wang Chong was behind the movie roles that Jessica has taken in recent years. It can be said that Wang Chong almost single-handedly created this national goddess.

The proposal was successful, which was regarded as settling a major event in Wang Chong's heart. The next step was to choose a suitable day to hold the wedding.

For Wang Chong, who is not short of money, there is no problem at all. It is not easy to give Jessica a perfect and gorgeous wedding.

But there is no hurry about the wedding.

After the proposal, Wang Chong's vacation was finally over.

When he returned to Chicago, it was already mid-August.

Like last year, Wang Chong also plans to intensify his training during the offseason this summer.

In the 09-10 season, his gains throughout the season were much more than last season. Although there were no random tasks throughout the season, the achievement of various achievements in the achievement module brought huge benefits to Wang Chong, especially A new single-game scoring record of 63 points in the finals. This alone brought him a reward of up to 2000 points.

Wang Chong currently holds as many as 6800 points! Even he was shocked when he first saw it.

Among other things, Wang Chong first spent 3500 points and activated 7 badges, which officially brought the total number of badges held by Wang Chong to 30!
According to the system rules, when the total number of badges held exceeds 30, the cost of redeeming badges with points will be doubled.

In other words, if he wants to activate the badge later, the cost of one badge is 1000 points.

This expense is still unaffordable to Wang Chong at this stage, so he plans to not redeem badges in the past two seasons unless necessary on the field. The points saved can be used to make up for his lack of ability. .

Because of this, among these seven badges, Wang Chong carefully selected the ones that suited him best and were the most cost-effective.

Two shooting badges: Fallback Master and Difficult Shooting King.

Two finishing badges: dunk master and fast break terminator.

Two organizational badges: First Step Master and Ankle Terminator.

A defensive badge: Master of post defense.

Wang Chong has carefully studied and considered these seven badges. They are the badges that best suit his current situation and can maximize his personal strength.

The first is the two shooting badges, the fadeaway master and the difficult shooting king. As the name suggests, the fadeaway master improves the hit rate and success rate of the player's fadeaway jumper. Originally, with Wang Chong's height and wingspan, it was basically impossible to shoot when shooting. No need to lean back to gain space.

However, considering that more and more teams in the league are conducting double-team defense against Wang Chong, in order to ensure that his scoring and offensive efficiency is not affected, he feels that it is still necessary to master this skill.

The same applies to the difficult shooting king. When performing some difficult shooting movements, such as jumping, turning, stepping back, emergency stop jumpers and fadeaways, you can get a hit rate bonus.

These two badges can be superimposed to take effect in order to stabilize the efficiency of difficult attacks such as Wang Chong's backward attack.

These two badges are also a gift prepared in advance by Wang Chong for the Heat.

He can guess with his toes that once the Bulls encounter the Heat in the new season, the other side will definitely let Bosh defend him, and at the same time arrange for James to help defend on the side.

Bosh is 2 meters tall and has a wingspan of 11 meters. Although he is slightly inferior to Wang Chong, the gap is not big. Wang Chong does not have any height advantage when facing off against the opponent. Coupled with the pressure from James, it is bound to use For difficult shooting skills, these two badges will come in handy.

The two finishing badges, the dunk master and the fast break terminator, are to enhance Wang Chong's conversion speed between offense and defense.

The effect of the isolation dunk master is to improve the success rate of players' dunking against other people and strengthen the players' ability to fight in the air during isolation dunks.

The fast break terminator is when a player grabs a defensive rebound, completes a steal, and blocks a shot to form a fast break. It can increase the player's speed and make the player more agile when going fast.

These two badges are also badges for the Heat.

Fans who have watched the Heat's Big Three games should know that the Heat's tactical play is a standard fast-break counterattack style. Through high-pressure defense, the opponent is forced to make mistakes, and then a quick counterattack is launched.

With two highly mobile players in James and Wade, once the Heat counterattack on a fast break, no team in the league can keep up.

With this move, James and Wade have repeatedly staged lightning-fast fast-break coordination, which is also affectionately called the James-Way Connection by their fans.

Of course, the dunk master and fast break terminator can't stop the Heat's fast break counterattack, but they can make the opponent throw a trap, because once they have a player with an amazing fast break speed, the Heat will inevitably throw a block and dare not fight. Got to be too unrestrained. (End of chapter)
