The win over Spain boosted the confidence of Chinese players, with major media outlets praising Zhou Xuan's performance and online fans discussing it. According to ESPN experts, the most team players used their individual hero style to defeat strong opponents.

However, on the 31st, the Chinese team lost 85-94 to the equally strong Russian team.

Zhou Xuan scored a big double-double of 22 points and 15 assists, and finished the Russian tall guard Alex Shevid, and Yao Ming also taught Mozgov a good lesson, scoring 20 points, 11 rebounds and 3 blocks.

The two have beautiful statistics, but the others have performed badly, especially the defense is too poor to withstand the Russian offensive.

On August 2, the Chinese men's basketball team defeated Australia 95-82 and locked up the group ahead of schedule.

In Bogut's absence, Yao Ming once again dominated the inside line. Patrick Mills is Australia's biggest star, and he's just a backup point guard in the NBA.

On August 4, the Chinese team lost again, losing 71-80 to Brazil.

Zhou Xuan scored 17 points and 12 assists, and was caught in the game. Yi Jianlian was in poor form, only scoring 6 points and 5 assists under Split's defense, and Yao Ming only scored 12 points and 7 rebounds under Nen's defense. Chinese players are collectively in a slump.

Brazil's lineup is not weak, especially with three NBA players on the inside, Vallejo can only play as a substitute.

After that, China defeated the host team Great Britain, who had lost four in a row, and advanced to the knockout round with a third-place record in the group. The media have reported on the progress of the Chinese team.

The cooperation between Zhou Xuan and his teammates became more and more tacit. The Chinese team has strengthened the breakthrough ball, strengthened the long-range shooting on the outside, strengthened the coordination of blocking and dismantling, and the whole team has a new style of play and awareness. Coupled with Yao Ming's attraction of defense in the low post, the Chinese team's offense played very smoothly.

In the past, in the process of breaking through the Chinese players, there was basically no running and covering between the players, so that the passing ball could not form an empty opportunity. Now that everyone has run away, only Zhou Xuan needs to control the ball alone. In the World Championships, the rebounding of the Chinese team's biggest weakness has also been qualitatively improved, and Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian did not lose to the inside line of other teams.

In the quarter-finals, China will face France, who are second in Group A, and the schedule is favorable, avoiding the Dream 10 team in the semi-finals against the winners of Russia and Lithuania.

While athletes from all over the world are fighting hard for the Olympics, NBA team managers are not idle, signing people in the free market and making trades to strengthen them.

The Hawks reached a trade deal that saw Joe Johnson go to Brooklyn, and the Nets were giving away guards Anthony Morrow, Jordan Farmar and DeSean Stevenson and forwards Jordan Williams, Johan Petrolo and a lottery-protected draft pick from the Rockets.

In addition, the Hawks also poached pumper Louis Williams from the 76ers as a replacement for Crawford's departure.

Swapping half a team for one person shows the determination of the Nets to rebuild. Then they used a high salary to recruit Carmelo Anthony, who became a completely free man.

Coupled with the extension of Brooke Lopez, the Nets formed a super starting lineup of Lopez, Anthony, Humphries, Joe Johnson, and Deron Williams, which is theoretically not just the Big Three. For this reason, they gave up on renewing the contract of former "Elvis" Gerard Wallace.

The Wizards Hornets completed the trade, and Lewis and the No. 46 draft pick were traded for Okafoga Ariza. The Hornets then announced the elimination of Lewis, a move that freed up salary space, and they intend to poach someone in the free market to assist the top pick Anthony Davis.

The management believes that Okafor's presence will affect Davis's development, and in fact, one of the two is good at fighting people, and the other is good at blocking speed, which is quite compatible. However, Okafor is not young, his form is also declining, and the Hornets dare not take risks.

The Clippers sent Morehelms to the Jazz, where they got Odom from the Mavericks, and the Mavericks got an $8.2 million trade exception from the Jazz. In addition, the Mavericks received the right to sign forward Tadia Dradicevic from the Jazz and received cash compensation from the Rockets. The Clippers gave second-round rookie Falkan Aldemir the signing rights to the Rockets.

It was the Jazz who made a profit from this deal. Williams could bolster their No. 1 spot, and on the same day, the Jazz signed two-way guard Randy Foye in free agency.

The Jazz also brought in Marvin Williams from the Hawks, and in exchange, the Jazz sent former star guard Devin Harris to the Hawks.

The Piston Bobcats close the deal. Ben Gordon swapped with Margeti, both junk contracts.

Brandon Roy announced his return to join the Timberwolves, averaging 19 points and 4 points per game in five seasons with the Trail Blazers. 3 rebounds 4. 7 assists and won the 2007 Rookie of the Year award and was a three-time All-Star. But it's doubtful what he can do without a meniscus.

The Clippers officially signed free agent Jamal Crawford, veteran Grant Hill, and pitcher Willie Green, and their strength continues to improve.

The Mavericks made a bid to bring in former All-Star Elton Brand as Yao Ming's backup, and Haywood left the Bobcats. The Pacers completed a trade with the Mavericks, who traded center Marcinmy for Pacers point guard Collison and shooting guard Dundee Jones.

The Mavericks also signed 2008 Tanhua show Mayo on the outside, and they are aiming to challenge for a championship in the new season.

The Pacers signed former Bobcats starting point guard DJ Augustin.

The Raptors and Rockets completed the trade to get guard Kyle Lowry. To that end, the Raptors sent Gary Forbes and a future protected first-round pick. They also signed Knicks waiver Novak.

Spurs also had a win. They renewed Dio's contract and signed Celtic's old giant Ray Allen on a three-year, 10 million contract. Ray Allen was hungry for a championship, and the Knicks had no shortage of swingmen in the East, so he chose the traditional Spurs.

The reinforcement of the Rockets is not small, mainly based on newcomers. It has been officially announced that the team has signed three rookies, Jeremilum, Royce White, and Terence Jones.

They also sent a poison contract to sign the Bulls backup center Asik for 3 years and 25.1 million. Asik averaged 14 per game for the Bulls last season. 7 minutes of playing time, 3. 1 point 5. 3 rebounds. He was very efficient, and Morey was planning to pan for gold in the sand.

Beasley officially signed with the Suns for 3 years and 18 million, which is also a gamble.

The Celtics reinforcements continue to be dominated by veterans, signing Jason Terry "Jet" as a replacement for Ray Allen. Terry averaged 15 per game with the Mavericks last season. 1 point and 138 three-pointers are second in the league, while Terry's career record of 1,788 three-pointers ranks fourth on the league's all-time three-point list.

Jamison, a one-year veteran who joined the Lakers with a base salary, loves Los Angeles, has a property there and is ready to retire in Los Angeles.

The Nuggets let go of Carmero Anthony and Billups, two cores, and offered Gallinari a big contract of 4 years and 56 million. A championship would make a player more valuable, and the Nuggets believe Gallinari has the potential to replace Anthony.

In addition, the Nuggets also signed veteran Andre Miller and interior Anthony Randolph.

Knicks management intended to put Leonard on the bench, and there was no match for Gallinari's offer, and the Knicks trident was torn apart for the new season.

To make matters worse, Beverley was also poached by the Rockets, and Mullin offered a three-year, $25 million poison contract, similar to Asik's. After thinking about it, Mullin decided to let him go, and Beverley was not worth the price at all.

The Knicks have not had a big trade, but they have retained Ryan Anderson for 36 million for 4 years. Anderson had just 14 numbers last season. 6 points 6. 2 rebounds, some people think it's a garbage contract, but Anderson actually plays a key role in the system.

In mid-July, Mullin made another move, not to recruit a superstar, but to get Luis Scola who was cut by the Rockets by bidding. Scola has $10 million in the final year of his contract with the Rockets, so the Knicks are responsible for Skora's salary of at least $3.3 million per year and $10 million over the next three years.

The Knicks also signed five-time All-Star Chauncey Billups with a veteran base salary as Miller's replacement.

The most beautiful signing was the Knicks' signing of Wizards interior André Blecher on a one-year 1.1 million contract. Zhou Xuan felt incredible when he got the news. Blacheche is in his prime, and he can mix the full middle class at the most in the era of scarcity of interior lines, and he is willing to take a base salary contract to the Knicks for the championship, and I don't know how Mullin fooled this kid.

The Lakers made the biggest moves. They signed Chris Carman to a one-year contract. He then signed Jodimeks to a two-year contract, and Meeks, from the University of Kentucky, averaged eight per game in his career. 1 point 2. 2 rebounds and a career three-point shooting percentage of 37. 1%。 Last season with the Philadelphia 76ers, more than half of his points came from three-point range.

The Lakers then completed a four-way trade in which the Lakers sent All-Star center Andrew Bynum, power forward Josh McRoberts, small forward Ayngar and a 2017 first-round pick and a 2015 second-round pick. Bynum to Philadelphia 76ers. The 76ers would send Andre Iguodala to the Denver Nuggets, while the Magic would get Aaron Afflalo, Al Harrington, Nikolavucevic, rookie swingman Harkless, Ayngar, McRoberts, plus three protected first-round picks and one second-round pick in the trade. And in addition to Howard, the Lakers will also get Chris Dujon and Earl Clark from the Magic.

The Magic sent Howard and got a lot of young players who could complete the rebuild. The Nuggets strengthened the No. 2 spot and sent away Harrington's garbage contract, which is not bad.

The 76ers just got Bynum, and they hope that the "Little Shark" can become the leader of the team and build the core of the team. It's kind of whimsical, and just look at how happy Bynum's smile is when he was eliminated from the playoffs, and you know that this guy is unreliable.

And that's not all, the Lakers then traded Nash from the Suns to form the Big Four.

Countless people exclaimed that the Lakers were too strong in the new season. For the sake of the championship, they already don't care how much it costs. Now this Lakers team reminds everyone of F4 back then. Nash is Payton, Gasol is Malone, Howard is O'Neal, and Kobe is Kobe! Looking at the role players, the Lakers are much better than they were in 2004.

ESPN expert Nicholas commented: "Stern must love to see this kind of spectacle! Lakers, Clippers, Knicks, Nets, Bulls, Celtics, Heat, Mavericks, ups and downs, fascinating! ”
