The Knicks beat the Warriors to stop the losing streak.

In the game against the Thunder, Bogut exited the court in the third quarter with a recurrence of his left ankle injury, and the team doctor gave him a week off just to be on the safe side. The Warriors can only play small-ball tactics and can't withstand the Knicks' low-post attack.

Bogut is a well-known glass man in the league, and the Warriors simply don't dare to let him play for too long. He has played just 33 games this season and was even worse last season, playing just 12 games after a few months off due to a left ankle injury. In the 2008-2009 season, Bogut missed several games due to a back injury, while in the 2009-2010 season, Bogut was sidelined with a dislocated right elbow and a sprained right wrist. He didn't have a good time.

While the Knicks won, their playoff rivals suffered a crushing blow. The Nets lost to the Hawks and suffered a two-game losing streak. The luxury lineup built with a lot of money is still lifeless.

ESPN pointed out in the report that the Nets are now facing four major problems: distrust of each other defensively; Lack of coordination on offense; Section 3: Habitual Collapse; It's hard to play against teams that are fast and athletic.

After the trade, the Nets' record became worse than in the first half. It's hard to believe, but it's happening. Not only the defense, but the team's offense is not much better.

Seeing the dismal results, the ambitious Russian boss couldn't bear to fire head coach "Little General" Johnson, and the team was temporarily led by assistant coach Callesimo.

Ironically, Johnson also won the Coach of the Month title before the Star Game, and after the trade, he was appropriately titled "The Man of the Blame."

Johnson himself could not understand the management's decision. "When you're in a team with a win rate of 60 per cent or more, you never thought something like this would happen to you," he said in an interview. But that's part of the business. It doesn't matter whether it's fair or unfair anymore. It's time for a new voice to emerge and hopefully they will be on the right track. ”

In addition to the poor record, many believe that Deron Williams' dissatisfaction was also the reason for the team's firing of Johnson. Just a few days ago, Deron publicly complained to the media that he missed the Jazz system of the past. DeLong denied the rumours of a "forced palace", saying that he was also very surprised by the decision, and that he had never spoken to the team manager about Johnson before that.

Well, DeLong didn't talk to the team manager, he talked directly to reporters. Although fans all over the world know, maybe the manager of the tennis team is an idiot who doesn't work and mixes salaries, so he doesn't know. DeLong's reasons for shirking responsibility are not very clever.

Delon is not the leader of the Nets team at all, and Anthony is more popular and vocal than others.

Garnett has publicly expressed his displeasure. 'If we're a team that wants to win titles, we shouldn't be like this. We don't have any tactics, they just know singles, isn't the point guard responsible for organizing the pass? ”

"They" are talking about Anthony, Delon, and López, who took turns playing solo in the first half of the season, and now the addition of new stars has not changed all that. Pierce was okay, Garnett was completely reduced to a blue-collar job.

On paper, the Nets' salary is not the highest in history, and the Knicks burned 1 in the 2006-2007 season. 200 million in total pre-tax wages, but the way the luxury tax progressive tax will be levied in the 2013-14 season, and next season the Nets are approaching 200 million in after-tax wages is unprecedented, but the Big Six have their own problems, and the team is full of crises.

Delon has made it to the Western Conference Finals in the playoffs the farthest of his career, but still lacks leadership and playoff experience overall.

Brook Lopez is more immature, often injured, and moves slowly.

Joe Johnson has flashed on occasion, and he often hit shots in the regular season, but he wasn't the kind of material that could take the team far away during his time with the Hawks.

Anthony makes the playoffs every year, reaching the second round at most.

Needless to say, Pierce and Garnett's aging and Kidd are a complete burden and can only be a guest assistant coach.

How long will it take for the Nets to adjust? Even if you find a rhythm, the playoff prospects are awkward.

Now, the only thing that can make the Nets talk about masturbation is that there are Lakers who are "in the same disease" as them. Both threw money and were neck and neck on the salary list, but they played like, and the Lakers' record was not as good as the Nets, barely ranking eighth in the West.

But in the summer, the Nets had a posture of "the champion will settle in New York, but only one will have the last laugh", and it is too sad to mix it up like this. As long as the Nets are out of the playoffs this year, the most humiliating thing may not be the Heat.

The regular season has reached its final moments. The best teams are the Knicks and Spurs again, and the teams that don't have a chance to make the playoffs are starting to fall apart.

The teams in the East are more happy, and the competition for the top eight spots in the West is fierce. One of the Rockets, Jazz, and Lakers will miss the playoffs.

On the 17th, Zhou Xuan arrived in Los Angeles with the team, and challenged the Clippers away on the evening of the 18th.

Chloe Moretz also followed the Knicks on his plane and returned to his home in Los Angeles to see his parents. The coaching staff and uniform team have long stopped treating her as an outsider. "Super Killer" is now the mascot of the Knicks.

After arriving in Los Angeles, Zhou Xuan hitchhiked home with Chloe, visited her parents, and chatted about the recent situation. In the evening, Zhou Xuan returned to the hotel to prepare for tomorrow's game.

After the trade with the Clippers, the two teams met for the first time, and both paid attention to the results of the game. Although they can only meet in the Finals, the Clippers also have the possibility of upsetting progress, and they have enough roster depth and dynamic players to currently sit third in the West.

At noon the next day, Zhou Xuan and Mitchell Butler had dinner together, which was the first time the two met after Mitchell's marriage.

Mitchell asked: "I have made a lot of money this year, I don't think you spend much, are you interested in investing or doing something?" ”

Zhou Xuan said with a smile: "I invested, I bought Pepsi shares, which grew from 66 to 83, and I just sold them before I came." ”

"What? Why didn't you tell me about this good thing? Mitchell smiled wryly.

"You were busy with your wedding some time ago." Zhou Xuan shook his head and said with a smile: "And it's the first time I've bought it, and I've heard someone introduce it, so if I don't give it a try, how can I call you casually?" What if I lose money? ”

"What are you going to buy again?"

"They also introduced Microsoft stock to me, and it was said that it was good and would definitely rise. So, I called and asked Bill (Gates) and he also said he could buy it. Microsoft has inside information and has to open a position early, so I plan to open a full position tomorrow, why don't you buy some too? Zhou Xuan asked.

"Buy, of course." Mitchell doesn't understand stocks at all, but he trusts Zhou Xuan and Gates. "As long as I follow you to do the same thing, I have a hunch that I will definitely make money."

Unbeknownst to Zhou Xuan, the good news is that CEO Ballmer will retire within a year.

Microsoft's operating system business did not perform well during Ballmer's administration, and its efforts in the smartphone and tablet markets did not perform well, which left Microsoft's stock price languishing and now at its bottom. However, when it comes to Microsoft, people will think of Bill Gates, the richest man, the company is unlikely to collapse, and it is only a matter of time before the stock price rises again.

The U.S. stock market is in an upward trend on the index this year, and it is not much risky to buy now.

Mitchell asked, "You said the warehouse is full, how much do you want to buy?" ”

“27。 Buy 10 million from 5 to 28. Zhou Xuan said lightly.

"You have so much money to buy 10 million, and it's called a full warehouse?" Mitchell laughed.

"I mean buy 10 million shares, I like to round up, the money I earn now don't buy villas, yachts, I really don't know how to spend it, just invest it, maybe score a few batches to buy it, it's not easy to absorb chips."

Mitchell swallowed and foamed, it was too risky. However, Zhou Xuan invested nearly 300 million at once. If it really rises, such as 38 in a year, then he will earn 100 million. A five-year contract with a maximum salary came out directly.

It is difficult for people to make money, it is easy to make money, Zhou Xuan is now a loser, and there will only be more and more funds in the future. He's just starting his career, and he's already in the top 20 active NBA stars.

Zhou Xuan didn't care very much, in his opinion, more money was nothing more than a number, although he couldn't compare with the top rich people in the world, he would definitely not be able to spend it in a few lifetimes, and he usually paid taxes very scarily. In the future, he will have to think about charity or something.

The two talked about basketball. "I think you're likely to win the championship again, at least in the East," Mitchell said. However, there are a few people who may not be able to stay next year. ”

"Blecher, huh? Everyone thinks so, he just wants to win the championship, and there is no reason to sign another million annual salary when he is playing. Zhou Xuan said indifferently: "Al Jefferson took the initiative to chat with me before, he is a free man in the summer, and he should want to consider the Knicks." ”

Mitchell asked, "Did you tell Chris [Mullin]?" ”

Zhou Xuan smiled: "I said." Millsap is also a free man, and they are thinking about who to dig in the summer. Although his height is average, Millsap can shoot and defend pick-and-rolls is much better. In contrast, Luis (Scola) and Ryan (Anderson) are almost good at blocking and pick-and-rolling, and they use swingman to play the No. 4 position, and Parsons' confrontation ability is too poor. ”

"Isn't that easy? In the summer, both men reached out, traded two of the trio of Anderson, Chandler and Scola to free up salary space and poached them all. Although there is no advantage in height, these two are in their prime, and they cooperate very tacitly, so your offense will be stronger. Mitchell suggested.

"Chandler also trades? Then we're going to have problems defending inside, right? Zhou Xuan didn't agree.

Mitchell explained: "He's really down on the floor to concede fewer points, but with Jefferson, it's perfectly fine to score a few more points than Chandler played. And you also have to consider Chandler's age, the mentality, he already has a championship, his physical fitness is starting to decline, and he only plays 30 minutes per game. There are still two years left on the contract, and if you get injured, you can't get anyone back, so you might as well make room for someone else to take the position. ”

Zhou Xuan thought about it and made sense. Several guards of the Jazz have no organizational ability, and the offense mainly relies on Jefferson and Millsap, and there is no doubt about their ability.

"Okay, I'll go back and talk to Chris and let them decide."

Even if the Jazz enter the playoffs, they can't go far, buying players is like buying stocks, and those who see room for improvement must strike first.
