The lineup of the nine teams of the United States Dream Group:

Center: Tyson Chandler

Power forwards: Kevin Love, Lamar Odom

Small forwards: Kevin Durant, Andre Iguodala, Danny Granger, Rudy Gay

Shooting guards: Chauncey Billups, Eric Gordon

Point guards: Derrick Rose, Russell Westbrook, Stephen Curry

Manager: Mike Šašewski

The official establishment of Mengjiu's lineup was already at the end of July, and before that, the United States men's basketball team had convened a 21-man squad, but finally slimmed down to the current 12-man squad.

From this list, it can be seen that the United States men's basketball team has indeed made a big change this time compared with the dream eight in 08.

Big names such as Kobe, James, Bosh, Wade and other big names have all chosen to withdraw from this year's United States men's basketball team.

The reason for this is nothing more than two points:

First, the superstars of the United States do not look down on the World Championships at all, for them, the O'Brien Cup is the most difficult and challenging trophy;

Second, this summer's free market is surging, and no superstar wants to be distracted at this time.

In this regard, there are actually mixed reviews within the basketball community in the United States, because after all, Mengba lost to the Celestial Empire men's basketball team in the 08 Olympic Games. Superstars who don't want to avenge their country, but have no time to care for their own interests, should be severely criticized.

However, the people of the United States do rely more on self-consciousness in terms of patriotism, and even if the criticism continues, those superstars still do what they want to do.

Summing up the lineup of the Dream Nine team, from the current point of view, it can only be said that there is a lack of star flavor.

There are three All-Stars — Durant, Granger, and Billups — but they all came off the bench in the All-Star Game.

However, in a few years, people will find that this old and small Dream Nine team is far from being as weak as they imagined.

……

Ningcheng Beilun Men's Basketball Training Base.

"Da Yao, what do you think?" Ruan Erniu said to Yao Ming, pointing to the latest Mengjiu lineup on his phone.

"Small balls are the trend, but I only see big moves in the summer market. Da Yao said.

"If I'm not mistaken, you're a player option too. Ruan Erniu asked malicefully.

In fact, the subtext of Erniu should be whether you want to jump out of the contract and take a salary cut to come to Atlanta to hug your thighs.

Of course, this is just Erniu's casual thoughts, even if Da Yao has this heart, the Eagles have no salary space.

Yao Ming smiled: "I have no plans to leave the Rockets for the time being, what about you? In the last year of the rookie contract, will you renew the contract with the Hawks in advance?"

Ruan Erniu said: "My agent's meaning is to let me wait until Joe renews his contract before making a decision, maybe I will complete the contract renewal in the middle of the season. ”

Yao Ming said with a big grin: "If you think Atlanta is too small, do you want to come to Houston?"

Da Yao's recruitment was a bit sudden, but Ruan Erniu reacted quickly, the reason is very simple, the Houston Rockets have salary space, and they do have the confidence to give Erniu a big contract.

Ruan Erniu gave Da Yao a roll of his eyes, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

Recruitment is never something that can be decided in a day or two, and the internal competition is not something that can be explained clearly in just one or two sentences.

Da Yao and Er Niu are two more detached people in the team, and the mentality of other teammates is different, Mengjiu's lineup is confirmed, in fact, the lineup of the Celestial Empire men's basketball team has already been determined, excluding Ruan and Yao, and 10 people have been selected for this year's Celestial Empire men's basketball squad:

Liu Wei, Sun Yue, Wang Shipeng, Yi Jianlian, Guo Ailun, Chen Jianghua, Zhou Peng, Wang Zhizhi, Zhang Zhaoxu, Ding Jinghui.

To be honest, Erniu really doesn't understand what the leaders of the Basketball Association think, there is no problem with the first and second positions, and there is no shortage of people in the fourth and fifth positions, but why is there only one Zhou Peng in the orthodox number of the third position.

And Zhou Peng's movement speed as the No. 3 position is very clear to fans who have watched the men's basketball game.

Zhu Fangyu withdrew from the national team due to his lap, and the loss for the Celestial Empire men's basketball team is definitely huge.

Regardless of how Zhu 8 is off the field, in the national team, he really can't find a second player to make up for his vacancy in the No. 3 position.

In fact, if Erniu hadn't helped Chen Jianghua go to Los Angeles for surgery and recuperation, I'm afraid Andy would have withdrawn from the national team due to a recurrence of injury.

"Kraft, can we talk alone?" said the newly appointed head coach of the men's basketball team, Bob Dunward, a native of the United States.

Interestingly, this fat man is not only the head coach of the Celestial Empire men's basketball team, but also the head coach of the Magic City Sharks, that is, he is Yao Ming's coach and Yao Ming's employee.

However, although Ruan and Yao are in a transcendent position, their quality as professional players still makes them willing to maintain the authority of the head coach.

Ruan Erniu and Deng Huade walked to the side of the arena.

"Bob, do you have any ideas?"

"Kraft, although we haven't been together for a long time, I'll be blunt, I want you to play the number three position!"

Ruan Erniu touched his chin, then nodded and said, "Then let Sun Yue beat the sixth person?"

Deng Huade smiled: "Yes, you can see it very clearly, that's what it is."

Yi just didn't have a good tactic in the Kings, and his confrontation ability was fully qualified to occupy a starting position.

You and Da Yao's position is definitely the starter, and Sun can better lead our attack in the sixth man position. ”

"I agree! You're the manager, it's your right...... What are you doing?"

Before Ruan Erniu could finish talking to Deng Huade, he shouted at the two people who really clashed in the field, and then Da Yao also rushed over.

said that it was a conflict, but it was actually wrong, because from the scene, it was Sun Yue who pushed the national team newcomer Guo Ailun to the ground, and then he was still talking about something in his mouth.

Sun Yue saw Erniu and Da Yao rushing over, and he didn't dare to be arrogant, so he had to pull Guo Ailun up and pat Guo Ailun's shoulder casually to show that there was no problem between them.

Ruan Erniu warned: "Sun Yue, you are a senior in the team, you have to be a senior, when you came to Atlanta, did I feel sorry for you?

Erniu usually doesn't like to preach, but when it comes to the unity of the team, he still stood up and expressed his attitude as soon as possible.

Da Yao, who is more qualified, stood up and said: "We are all considerate of each other, it is normal for the team to have bumps and bumps in training, and when we get to the field, we still have to win glory for the country together." ”

Spit out the old and embrace the new, four words are simple, but when it comes to implementation, there will be all kinds of troubles.

After the Celestial Empire men's basketball team won the championship in 08, there was naturally the birth of a group of meritorious players.

They are the most glorious generation in the history of men's basketball, and the newcomers to the national team want to find their place under them, and it is by no means as simple as it seems.

Fortunately, there are two big Buddhas of Erniu and Da Yao pressed on it, at least on the whole, this team can still maintain a relatively harmonious operation.

Men's basketball teams around the world are gearing up for the 2010 World Championships, but this is not what most of the country's basketball stars will live in.

The summer of 2010 was a year to watch because there were so many big fish on the free market:

LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, Dwyane Wade, Cameron Anthony, Yao Ming, Paul Pearce, Amare Stoudamire, Chris Bosh, Dirk Nowitzki, Carlos Boozer and many more.

They either have an expiring contract or a player option and could test the free market at any time.

In any case, all pundits agree that this is the craziest summer and that anything unexpected could happen this summer, as the free agency market is so hot that the 2010 NBA Draft has become less of a concern.

On June 24, U.S. time, Madison Square Garden in New York held the NBA2010 draft as usual.

The Washington Wizards, who were in a bad position, didn't have any surprises, and John Wall was rightfully the top pick of the year.

Why?

Let's take a look at Wall's lateral data:

The height of the bare feet is 1.90 meters, the height of the shoes is 1.93 meters, the arm span reaches 2.06 meters, which is 16 cm longer than the height, and the height of the standing touch reaches 2.58 meters.

The maximum bounce reaches 99 cm, and the maximum touch height is 3.57 meters.

The jump height of the unassisted run is 76 cm, and the height of the unassisted run is 3.34 meters. This kind of bounce is definitely exciting.

When he entered the league, Wall weighed 89 kilograms, had only 5.6% body fat, and his 3/4 sprint speed was only 3.14 seconds, which means that he was the fastest star in the game before entering the league.

Predictably, the Wizards will certainly build on Wall to rebuild their team, and their goal is only for the future.

The Philadelphia 76ers selected Evan Turner with the second overall pick.

The Brooklyn Nets selected Derrick Favors.

The Minnesota Timberwolves chose Wesley Johnson.

Then the Sacramento king chose DeMarcus Cousins.

When Allen got the news, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and it is conceivable that he was most likely traded away in the final year of his rookie contract, and the Kings no longer had his place.

After that, the Pistons selected Monroe with the seventh pick, aka Greg Monroe.

The Clippers drafted Aminu with the eighth pick.

The Jazz drafted Gordon Hayward with the ninth pick.

And the Pacers selected Paul George with the 10th pick.

The only surprise was that Hassan Whiteside, who was once expected to be a lottery pick before the game, fell directly to the second round, and it was the Sacramento Kings who drafted him.

The reason why White Edge (Whiteside's paraphrase, Hiteside) fell in the second round is the same as Little Jordan, the technology of these two goods is too rough, relatively speaking, White Side's current technology may be a little rougher than Little Jordan at that time.

There is indeed a problem with the training of the center of the United States, and a large number of guys with physical bodies and no skills are popular, so it is no wonder that Erniu and a large number of international players will be robbed of jobs.

Although there were some missing pearls in the subsequent picks, in general, there was basically no big fluctuation in this draft.

Although the Hawks also selected unknown people like Damai James and Pep Sai, in general, none of them can become the Hawks' immediate force.

Erniu has serious doubts that Billy Knight will eventually sign with them, or sign them directly with the most bargaining chips.

For the 10-year rookies, they still have a big problem to face, that is, last year's No. 1 pick Blake Griffin will join the rookie of the best race, which undoubtedly doubles the pressure on the 10-year rookies.

The draft passed quickly, and fans focused more on the free market.

At this time, in a corner where no one is paying attention, a secret meeting that has been wildly speculated by various media in the future has begun.

There are only two people in this secret meeting: Pat Riley and LeBron James.

The general manager of the Heat came prepared, he took out his own 5 championship rings directly in front of James, and then picked up the ring from '06 and said to James: "Do you want to have your own? ”

James smiled and didn't say anything, and Riley added, "Soon Bosh will come to the Heat." ”

James was still calm and still didn't make a final statement, because there was also news from New York that Stodamire would join the Big Apple.

Pat Riley put away the ring, smiled and said: "You can not come, in fact, Cameron Anthony was talking to us on the phone recently. ”

After saying that, Riley left the secret meeting without looking back.

James has no way out, staying in Cleveland, he will always be just a nominal earth emperor.

In Cleveland, James couldn't break through the encirclement of the Hawks, Celtics and Magic, so he's definitely going to leave Cleveland this summer.

But once the Heat form the Big Three of Wade, Bosh and Anthony, what's the point of him going to New York or the Bulls?

It's nothing more than looking for abuse in another place, which is absolutely unacceptable to James personally.

On July 7, Chris Bosh joined the Miami Heat as a free agent.

Leon Rose called Erniu and said, "We're going to make a big news. ”

Erniu smiled and asked, "Isn't it James going to the Heat?"

"But it's going to be unprecedented," Ross said. ”

On July 9, LeBron James announced that he would join the Miami Heat through an unprecedented live TV broadcast.

Reporter: So, LeBron, what was your decision?

LeBron: Oh, you know, it's a hard thing to decide, uh, I decided to take my talent to the South Coast and join the Miami Heat.

Reporter: Miami?

LeBron: Yes.

After Ruan Erniu got the news, he called James as soon as possible: "LBJ, are you crazy?

James also seemed to feel that his way was a little problematic, but he still said arrogantly: "It was Leon who asked me to do this, it should be no problem, I will donate the proceeds of the live broadcast to charity." ”

Erniu pouted on the other end of the phone, and had to say, "Good luck, buddy!"

After making this call, Erniu immediately called Ouyang Haotian: "How long will it take for my contract with Leon Rose to end? I can't wait to terminate the contract with him!"

Actually, there is nothing wrong with James going to the Heat, the capital markets, any trade is not to blame, and James is not without leaving a fortune to the Cavaliers.

Because he got the Cavaliers to get the 2011 second-round pick, the 2012 second-round pick, the 2013 first-round pick, and the 2015 first-round pick from the Heat through a sign-and-trade deal.

In addition, the knight obtained:

$11,450,000 trade exception, split, and 2. the right to swap first-round picks with the Heat in 2012.

But the problem is that James should not end his relationship with the Cavaliers in this way.

This is like a man who abandons his dregs for power, although he also leaves money for his dregs to live, but in any case, he should not inform the world about this matter on the live broadcast platform.

Leon Rose came up with such an arrangement, which undoubtedly made James a target of public criticism.

When James came to his senses, even he regretted it.

A year later, James also expressed his apologies for using live TV to announce the transfer.

"Looking back now, I was wrong.

I would say that if I had the chance to do it all over again, I wouldn't do it that way.

Now I can relate to the feelings of the fans, and if a football or baseball player that I really like leaves the team I support in this way, I feel hurt as well. James said, "I don't say this to this day to get people's understanding or sympathy, I'm just to let people know a real James."

I was the same boy who grew up in Ohio, and I loved basketball because it made my dream come true. ”

"It's really hard for me to adapt to this change, I've been the most popular person with fans for the last seven years, and I've been followed by fans wherever I play.

All of a sudden, everything changed, and I became the biggest villain, and I was the target of accusations and even insults everywhere. "I've never had an experience like this, it's been so cruel for me, and it took me a long time to get used to the change." ”

Well, admitting mistakes is a good attitude, but let's take a look at what James said a year ago, in the summer of 2010.

James told reporters: "I can understand that a lot of Clevelands are hurting. ”

But he also said that growing up, he and his friends in Akron didn't really like Cleveland. Akron is located about 40 kilometers from Cleveland.

"It's not far, but it's far away. "And Clevelands look down on us, they're kids in the big city."

So we don't actually like Cleveland, we grew up hating Cleveland.

To this day, there are still many nasty people in Cleveland. ”

Hehe, isn't the first one of the many annoying people to be the Cavaliers boss who complains about James' ruthlessness and unrighteousness - Daniel Gilbert?

It should be noted that there is a Yahoo reporter's evaluation of James.

Why specifically lift him out?

There is no reason for this, because at this time he is already the biggest Zhan Hei in the whole meter, and his name is Adrian-ojnaroski, and professional fans of the Celestial Empire like to call him oj god, or Wo God.

Wo God will start his battle of the gods or the peak of his career next year, but the battle between him and James has already begun.

In June 2010, OJ wrote on the Internet: "James has never been polite to people, disrespectful to legendary predecessors, he has no judgment ability, and he knows no shame."

It is an empty superstar in this empty age.

He and his team are committed to turning people's attention to him personally, even wanting to 'undermine' the process of the national people enjoying the regional finals, finals, and draft parades. ”

In OJ's eyes, James is close to a demonic being.

OJ went on to write in June '10, "Because his demons have been unleashed, domineering rampant has filled the world. ”

At the end, OJ uses an exaggerated phrase: "Kneel, mortals, grovel to the Emperor, grovel to the chaos of all this." ”

And when James announced his decision in the live broadcast, OJ was even more sarcastic: "An act of self-exaggeration and hatred, and an act of destroying his image and reputation."

OJ concluded: "James is a ruthless speculator, who said 'leave his soul in Cleveland'? ”

Of course, OJ doesn't represent the whole meter audience, but he is definitely one of the most iconic figures.

For the rest, Barkley and the like come out to play with their sense of existence, but they don't have lice and debts.

And the last critic of James was league president David Stern.

In James' transfer, Stern said that there were indeed flaws, but it had nothing to do with the Heat, but James' personal misconduct.

Stern also believes James should have informed the Cavaliers of his decision in advance rather than announcing it in a television interview.

As for James' transfer to the Heat, Stern said that it was his personal right and there was nothing wrong with it.

Okay, unless the Heat play a historic record, it is basically certain that the MVP of the 10-11 season will miss James!
