When Yao Ming first entered the NBA, he was a little thin and lacked confrontation on the inside, which led to a disadvantage in the duel with the big shark O'Neal and other power-based insiders, so he later gained weight, increased his strength, and finally became a dominant center!

Now, that Master Hung says that he has to lose weight to be healthy, which requires the consideration of whether he can maintain his current dominance after losing weight, and if not, what should he do? Today, he is also 30 years old, and even if he is not injured, his athletic career is not long left. If www.biquge.info after losing weight, his state has declined dramatically and he has become a person like "Big Bamboo Pole" Bradley, then it is better to retire directly! Anyway, his injury is like this, as long as he does not exercise vigorously for a long time, normal activities are not affected.

Yao Ming was silent for a long time and did not speak, and the communication between Li Du and him was in Chinese, and no one else could understand it, so the leader of Yao's team asked: "Yao, what were you talking about just now?" Why did you fall silent after Mr. Li finished speaking to you? What's going on? ”

Li Du was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that they were communicating in Chinese, so he repeated what he had just said to Yao Ming in English, of course, he hid Master Hong's name. From that day when Master Hong quietly entered his room at night to meet and said something about an espionage organization, Li Du knew that he would never reveal any information about Master Hong to others.

After hearing this, the members of Yao's team were also silent, and they were also thinking about the same issues as Yao Ming.

In the end, Yao Ming said to Li Du: "Xiao Du, let's discuss it first, estimate the worst situation after weight loss, and what to do, and then I will tell you the result." I'm tired of you running so far for me, and asking for help, you go to rest first. ”

Li Du nodded, and under the arrangement of the rest of Yao's team, he stayed in the hotel to rest. He knew that this was a very big decision for a professional athlete who was already 30 years old, and this kind of thing could not be decided on the spot, but only carefully considered.

After that, Li Du returned to San Francisco, Yao Ming's matter needs to be considered slowly by himself, Li Du can't wait for him in Houston all the time, anyway, now that communication is developed, when he thinks about it, when to tell Li Du is enough, they can go to the Hongmen Association at any time.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it's September, and the Warriors' initial roster has been chosen. With Li Du as the core, Curry, Crawford, and Reggie Williams are all guards, and the interior is Kadir Martin, Radmanovic, Turyaf and others.

In general, the current lineup of the Warriors can only be regarded as a remnant, and the outside attack power is enough, but except for Li Du, the defense of others is not good, and Crawford, a person who was born in street ball, has almost no defense!

And the inside line can almost be described as miserable! Kadir Martin is a small forward, but his scoring ability is very weak, averaging only 4 or 5 points per game, Radmanovich's rebounding ability is okay, averaging about 8 to 9 rebounds per game, but his other abilities are too weak, he has no single ability under the basket, and he can only rely on his teammates to create scoring opportunities for him, and he has no mid-range shooting ability, and his interior defense is only average.

Among the interior players, Turiaf is relatively good, full of strength, big enough, and very desperate on the court, but unfortunately he is not tall enough, his interior defensive ability is insufficient, and he also has no active offensive ability, and the rebounds are about 7. He was originally a player who was abandoned by the Lakers, and his ability could not be very strong.

Old Nelson is helpless every time he sees this lineup, such a lineup doesn't look like a strong team configuration, and it is unknown what results he can play in the regular season. Even if he believes in Li Du's ability, the old Nelson doesn't think that Li Du can win the championship alone!

The problem of interior players can only be found slowly, and at this stage, the old Nelson can only familiarize everyone with the tactical system he has developed specifically for players with excellent outside ability such as Li Du and Curry.

Just when Li Du and they were preparing to play the preseason, the NBA broke out again with amazing news!

The Rockets announced that they had reached a consensus with Yao Ming that because Yao Ming was seriously injured, he would be basically reimbursed this season, so the Rockets decided to buy out Yao Ming's remaining year of contract after negotiation with Yao Ming, and Yao Ming became a free agent!

This time, not only the NBA was in an uproar, but China was even more boiling! Yao Ming has been playing for the Rockets since he entered the NBA in the 2002 draft, and has gradually become the inner core of the Rockets. But this time, after Yao Ming was injured, the Rocket team actually gave up on Yao Ming! Do they want to give up the Chinese market?

In fact, Li Du and those who are in the NBA understand that the Chinese market is important, but for the NBA, the most important thing is the local market in the United States, which is also the market with the largest proportion. And for a team to have a foothold in the U.S. home market, the team's results are very important.

If the Rockets don't buy out Yao Ming's contract, because Yao Ming's contract occupies the team's salary space and personnel space, the Rockets can't find anyone else, so they can only play all the games of the season with the remnants, so the record can't be very good!

Now that they are buying out Yao Ming's contract, they can not only free up salary space and personnel space to find other players, but also reduce the resistance of Chinese fans to the Rockets in this relatively mild way, and in this way, Yao Ming also gets the rest of his salary, and he will not have hatred for the Rockets, which is a double win.

The Rockets thought so, but he underestimated the mild-looking big man's desire for victory and feelings for the team, and the day after the Rockets announced the news, Li Du received a call from Yao Ming: "Xiao Du, I think about it, even if my competitive state declines in the future, I will continue to play hard!" Take me to the Hongmen Association! ”

Li Du sighed, he understood Yao Ming's mood very well, and he was also uncomfortable when he was traded by the Lakers, so he asked, "Brother Yao, have you thought about it?" ”

"You've figured it out!" Yao Ming said resolutely: "Lose 20 to 30 pounds, it's a big deal that I still maintain the way I played before I didn't gain weight, use my feet and jumpers to attack, and on the defensive end, my height itself is a natural barrier!" Besides, after losing weight, my pace will be faster, my ability to defend will be much better, and I can still be a good center! ”

Li Du laughed, and he finally asked his last question: "Brother Yao, after your injury is healed, are you interested in playing in the Warriors?" Are there any other teams contacting you? ”
