With nearly a month to go before the team assembles, the three Chinese players who play in New York and New Jersey are ready to continue their closed training and consolidate their newfound technical skills this summer.
As the new season approaches, some teams that are obsessed with a championship have not slowed down the pace of the arms race.
On September 10, at the urging of the little emperor James, the Cavaliers, Wizards, and Clippers reached a three-way six-big deal. The core player of this trade, Wizards power forward Antoine. Jamison moved west to Cleveland and at the same time they also acquired Sebastian from the Clippers. Telfer. Wizards get Al from the Clippers. Thornton, Cavaliers veteran center Ilgoskas, a 2010 first-round pick and a signing right to Emile Pledzic. The Clippers got Drew. Gordon.
It can be said that in order to meet James's ambitions, the Cavaliers have done everything they can this summer to strengthen the roster, add players,
On September 13, another blockbuster deal took place in Houston.
After a long wait, Rockets management has finally lost patience with long-suffering superstar McGrady. They used Maddie, Carl. Landry, Joey. Dorsey, from the Kings for Kevin. Martin, Sergio. Rodriguez, Hilton. Armstrong and Kenny. Thomas.
……
On October 1, the NBA teams began to assemble.
The trading market, which had been lively all summer, fell silent for the time being.
Every year, the TV station is presented by a trio of well-known commentators to analyze the strength of each team on paper in the new season.
"Ladies and gentlemen, whenever you see our show, it means that the new NBA season is about to be rekindled." Moderator: Amy. Johnson sat on the couch in the studio living room, talking to the camera.
"First, let's take a look at the teams that have been rated A+ for their work this summer."
"There is no doubt about it, the Cavaliers!" The outspoken 'Big Mouth' Barkley gave his answer without thinking.
"Oh, Charles. I found you to have a great talent for answering questions. "Kenny. Smith said with a disdainful pout.
"Kenny, can I interpret your words as jealousy? Ha ha! ”
Let's take a look at what's happening to the Cavaliers this summer. Sark. Olney, Antoine. The addition of these two players has greatly strengthened the Cavaliers' roster. "Amy. Johnson looked at the information in his hand and shook his head.
"That's right! Antoine can open up more offensive space for LeBron, and Shaq, despite his age, I think he's still the best center in the league besides Yao Ming. What's more, he can bring four-time championship experience to the Cavaliers. "Barkley is clearly very bullish on the Cavaliers' prospects this year.
"Haha! Charles, you remind me of poor little Kenny (the donkey that was kissed in the ass). "Kenny. Every now and then, Smith helps his old partner regain his memory.
"I think the Los Angeles Lakers are the biggest winners this summer." Although Smith was very bad with the Purple and Gold as a player, he still gave his highest rating to the other side.
While retaining the core players who won last year's championship, Artest, who was only strengthened at the cost of losing Ariza, weakened the main rival in the West, the Houston Rockets. Kupchak's methods are really clever. "Amy. Johnson vs. Kenny. Smith couldn't agree more.
"Well, let's take a look at another team that has been doing well – the Orlando Magic. All-star player Vince. Carter and Outside Artillery Lane. The arrival of Anderson is more than enough to make up for the loss of Turkish player Turkoglu's departure. He also signed a contract with 'White Chocolate' Jason with a veteran base salary. Williams, to complete the team's squad. ”
"Yes, this Magic team is a team from Shaq. O'Neill and Effinney. After Hardaway, the strongest team. Barkley, who often disagrees, immediately thought of the Eastern Conference powerhouse more than ten years ago after watching the Orlando Magic's lineup this year.
Three All-Stars Howard, Carter, Rassad. Lewis plus the French flyer Michael. Petrus, a point guard above league level, Jamil. Nelson, flank titan Matt. Barnes, outside killers J.J. Redick, Ryan Anderson, Jason Williams, Polish center Marzin Gortat......
These players make up a starting or rotating lineup that will definitely make most teams' general managers blush.
Another team favored by the trio is the Clover Celtics. In the signing roar of the Celestial Venerable Rashid. After Wallace, he took the big baby Glenn. Davis and Marquis. Daniels.
As long as Garnett can stay healthy, with Rondo, Ray. Allen and Pierce's Boston giants will be strong contenders for the championship trophy.
……
"The Houston Rockets have had a mediocre performance this summer, trading McGrady, who is struggling with a back injury, for a very useful scorer, Kevin. Martin has given the team a new point of firepower. But Artest's departure, I think will be a fatal blow to the Rockets. "Amy. Johnson gave this comment when talking about the Rockets.
"Yes, Ron's toughness and fighting spirit were key to the Rockets' success last season. The only player in the team who can be counted on now is probably Yao Ming. "Kenny. Smith is worried about where the Rockets are going this year.
……
"There are three young teams that are the most exciting. They are the Chicago Bulls, the Oklahoma City Thunder, the New York Knicks. After talking about the signing of several strong teams in the league, the host Amy. Johnson pulled the conversation back to the three teams with superstars.
"Eric. After Gordon's departure, '08 champion Delhi. Kroos will have more of the ball in the team. Although he lost to China's Sun Yi in the Rookie of the Year award last season, I think Derek's potential is far from being realized. ”
The Windy City Roses, who averaged 20.1 points, 4.2 rebounds and 5.2 assists per game, are just a little worse than the Chosen Ones' rookie season for James. Coupled with the help of a team of good players, former Bulls legend Kenny. Smith is extremely optimistic about this junior.
"The Thunder, who are in their second year in Oklahoma City, have a number of young players to keep an eye on this season. Kevin. Durant, Russell. Westbrook, Jeff. Green and James. Harden. I think Durant will be a strong contender for the league's scoring title in the coming years. ”
Barkley commented on what the Thunder have been watching this year. Self-directed coach Scott. After Brooks joined the team midway through last season, the development of these young players has accelerated significantly. After more than half a season, this team may bring the biggest surprise to the fans.
"When it comes to the New York Knicks, we have to mention the Chinese player Sun Yi. In his rookie season, he broke multiple league records. "When Amy. When Johnson talked about the Knicks and Sun Yi, the expression on his face became solemn.
He scored the most 61 points in a single game in his rookie season, became the Player of the Month in his first year of his career, the first player since Robertson to complete more than 8 triple-doubles in his rookie season, the rookie with the most points in 20+ consecutive games, and the only player since Jordan to score 27+5+5+ in his rookie season......
"Haha! I heard interesting news. Michael really taught his turnaround and step-back jumper to the little guy in the Knicks. It seems that there is also a player who also participated in the draft this year. ”
The news revealed by Barkley made countless fans know for the first time that the Knicks Tanhua Show, who is good at turning and leaning back, really had an indissoluble relationship with the god of basketball.
"Oh! Oh, my God! Is Michael developing an opponent who outshines himself? "Kenny with his hand over his forehead. Smith, with a look of disbelief, apparently the first time he had heard the news.
"Just in the Asian Championship finals, the Knicks scored 46 points in the future cornerstone, and I believe that his ability will no longer be questioned. Let's talk about how the long-lost New York giants will perform in the new season. "Amy. Johnson brought the discussion back to the point.
"Maybe we can make the playoffs, maybe we can't." Kenny. Smith thinks the departure of team captain Richardson is very regrettable. Chandler has never been his favorite type.
"Kenny, do you really think so? Let's make a bet, the Knicks are definitely going to be higher than the Bulls this year, do you dare? ”
Barkley has been looking for an opportunity to bet with his partner for so many years, but unfortunately the other party always refuses to accept the offer.
"Good! As you wish, tell us about our bets! ”
This time, Kenny. Smith happily agreed to the request. He is confident that his former parent team, which finished seventh in the East last season, is ahead of the Knicks, who have undergone a major roster change.
"Hey, hey! Last time I kissed your ass, right, Kenny? This time we are more elegant, and the loser will just learn to bark twice. Hahahaha! ”
……
The three basketball teenagers who stood out from the basketball training camp arrived in Chicago on September 27 with Zhang Qingkong and his party. Sun Yi, who has been training behind closed doors with his teammates in the national team, made a special trip from New York.
After resting for the night, the soldiers split up early the next morning. Judy, Yu Lingfeng, and Fairy Tale rushed back to New York to file the accounts that had been settled at Tamron this summer, and to make overall plans for the boss's income for the coming year.
Sun Yi took the three teenagers to the Snyder's sports rehabilitation center for a physical examination, and after all the test reports came out, each child had a different physique, and the nutritional recipes and training plans were also slightly different.
In order to allow these children to adapt and integrate into the new life environment as quickly as possible, Sun Yi previously commissioned Coach Boli to contact several local families who were willing to accept the children.
Most of the heads of these families have retired, and most of their children are working in other places. They are in the retirement stage and are very happy to take over this interesting care work. Of course, for these families, Sun Yi will give more symbolic economic subsidies every year.
As the team is approaching the assembly of the new season, Sun Yi handed over these follow-up tasks to Brother Changkong to cooperate with Mr. Bo Li to complete. He returned to New York at the end of September to prepare for the Knicks' preseason practice.
……
This year's New York Giants roster has six new faces.
Most of these newcomers found a new place to live in the Big Apple early on, and spent the entire offseason mostly training except for relaxing vacations.
Like Afraro, Sheldon. Williams and Aaron. Young players like Gray, who are fighting for a regular position or next season's contract, have a strong desire to improve their technical and tactical abilities.
Former UCLA star player Aaron Aaron. Afflalo, not only does he have to practice a lot of long-range shooting every day, but when he returns to his accommodation in the evening, he will also rethink the team's tactical materials sent by the team's new assistant coach.
The Knicks newcomer knows very well why the team traded himself for the former NBA dunk king with a more spectacular style of play this summer. Escorting core player Sun Yi is the key to whether he can be reused this season.
The name of the league's best rookie, Afflalo was thunderous back in college. Even, he once learned from the head coach of the team that he had the opportunity to play side by side with this amazing Chinese guy in the game of the Bruins.
It's a pity that the other party's erroneous choice made the meeting of the two a few years late. However, the unpredictable spin of the Wheel of Fortune brings Afraro to the Big Apple. Whether he can become the backcourt partner of the Chinese guy, let's wait and see in the new season.
Andre. Miller and McDyes, two veterans who have been in the league for more than a decade, have a much better life than those young lads.
From June to August, more than 60 days of rest filled their tired bodies with energy again. Years of professional experience have taught the two how to condition their bodies.
Ahead of the team's training camp for the new season, the two veterans have already completed their physical reserves for this year's regular season.
Tyson. Chandler is the Knicks' most important signing this summer. This inside iron gate, which has been pinned on by the team's coaching staff, has not been doing well lately.
Chandler's old left toe injury is a big reason why many teams have been reluctant to offer the Charlotte Hornets a high price this summer. This disease that has plagued him for many years is helpless for many professional sports medicine experts. The boxing champion, who had just come to play in the big city as he wished, was knocked out by a new problem in his right shoulder this time.
After speaking with head coach D'Antoni, the team allowed Chandler to watch the team's workouts while he was recuperating from his injury so that he could integrate into the Knicks' system for the upcoming season more quickly after he recovered. (To be continued.) )
