......

Lineup...... Doesn't seem to be a big deal?

Barkley opened the technical statistics in front of him with some irritation.

The Pacers lost six of the seven preseason games......

Buckley's tooth hurts a little.

Larry Bird...... What exactly do Pacers want to do?

Do they really think that they can beat the Cleveland Cavaliers with this lineup?

Or does Larry Bird Sr. think that Xu Xuan is still young and wants to use time to drag Cleveland to death, and to use time to drag LeBron James to death?

It's not a good choice.

Judging from James' current "all-round 1800-degree maintenance" of himself, the old guy doesn't say much, and it is estimated that there will be no major problems in 3-4 years.

Want to survive James?

It's a bit difficult!

It's not that Barkley doesn't believe Xu Xuan, it's that this man named LeBron James is too rebellious!

Does Larry Bird want Xu Xuan to be a good baby for a few years?

Scold!

It's really long hair and short knowledge......

Barkley has always believed that the Pacers' recruitment this season has completely failed to take the championship into account.

It's okay to keep the two veterans of West and Hibbert, and it's even more okay to let go of Louis Scola, CJ Watson, Shane Whittington and others.

The problem is that Larry Bird is so picky!

There are so many big fish in the free market this season, but he didn't catch one?

This is to win the championship, this squad can't even make the playoffs......

"Larry Bird tasted the bargain, he thought that if he traded casually, one person would be another Xu Xuan......"

"This damn old buckleman...... Did he think Xu Xuan would be able to save the world every time? I was expecting the Pacers to form a Super Trident winning lineup after Ade joined...... What a bastard! ”

Larry Bird was scolded by the fans......

But he was wronged.

I can't tell my stomach full of grievances......

Before Xu Xuan returned to China, Larry Bird only kindly mentioned it to Xu Xuan and asked him if he had any views and suggestions on the lineup...... He originally just asked casually, after all, no matter how great Xu Xuan's performance is, he is also a rookie.

Scold!

Do you expect a rookie to come and give you the general manager, the team's operations officer?

No kidding!

But who would have thought that Xu Xuan not only said his own suggestion, but also opened a list at the end......

List of transaction applications......

Watfack!

Larry Bird was shocked at the time...... You dare to open a list for me before you even recognize all the rookies?

Seashell...... It's too showy, isn't it?

Larry Bird's scalp is numb, but out of respect for Xu Xuan (Xu Xuan's contract expires next year), Larry Bird finally sadly found that he really has to pay attention to it...... Otherwise, Xu Xuan is angry, what if he doesn't renew his contract with the Pacers next year?

When the time comes, I can't find a place to cry......

Therefore, Larry Bird could only smash his teeth and swallow it in his stomach, and find it one by one according to the list opened by Xu Xuan......

Klay Thompson?

No way!

Louis Williams?

No way!

Andre Drummond?

No way!

Nikolai Vučević?

No way!

Rudy Gobert?

No way!

Andre Roberson?

No way!

Tony Allen?

No way!

Danny Green?

No way!

No, no, no, all at all......

But Larry Bird has never been happier...... Look, what are you doing as a rookie with all this gossip?

None of the candidates you put forward will work!

Either the people themselves are unwilling to come to Yincheng, or the parent team is unwilling to release people, and they can't look down on the chips you put forward here......

Larry Bird let out a long sigh of relief......

Now I can finally trade according to the old man's wishes, right?

Larry Bird is snickering.

But just before the smile on the corner of his mouth fully bloomed, the news came from there that the transaction application was approved......

"What? Suns agree to trade PJ Tucker? ”

"Crazy? I'm just asking......"

When it was learned that the Suns decisively agreed to a trade for PJ Tucker, Larry Bird's old eyes almost didn't pop out......

It's a dead life!

I'll just say that, do you agree with Nima?

"Can you withdraw it?"

"Well, it doesn't seem to work, they've officially notified the authorities......"

I'll you second uncle!

Tucker doesn't know much about Larry Bird, but it's because he doesn't know that he thinks this deal is a bastard.

Alliance famous people who he doesn't know?

Anyone he didn't know must be idiots......

Oh, my God!

He actually traded for a fool?

Larry Bird was bitter in his heart, he knew that after the deal was completed, the fans would not scold Xu Xuan, but would only think that he was blind......

However, in line with the basic principle of satisfying Xu Xuan, Larry Bird still gritted his teeth and swallowed this contract, and not only that, but he also signed free agent Javier McGee properly.

This time, the two of them were only ranked last in Xu Xuan's list, but even the last one could be regarded as having an explanation for Xu Xuan.

"Huh? You said...... Did Xu Xuan do it on purpose? He didn't want to win this championship at all? That's why he gave me such a list? ”

Larry Bird thought of a possibility.

Kevin Pritchard next to him was stunned for a moment, and then nodded immediately: "It's really possible for you to say that......"

"Xu Xuan feels that he still has to settle for another year, maybe he has put the goal of winning the championship into the next season?"

"That's right! Then everything makes sense......"

Larry Bird thinks he may be thinking something wrong, but is there any other reasonable explanation?

"That's fine, make room for salary this year, stabilize it first, and then pull the throttle to the end next year!"

At the thought of Durant's contract expiring next year, Larry Bird's heart is hot.

If the Pacers can sign Durant next year, they will be able to form a super triumvirate of Xu Xuan + Pickles + Durant......

That picture is really a dream that can wake up with a smile.

......

On October 27, 2015, the much-anticipated new NBA season began.

The defending champion Nine Star Warriors host the New Orleans Pelicans.

It was a very strong and weak game, and the Warriors were on the rise and were known as one of the strongest teams of all time.

But Pelicans fans don't think so, they can abuse the Pacers in the preseason, and they can also abuse the Warriors in the regular season!

However, the result was not what they expected.

95-111, the mighty Golden State Warriors won the Pelicans by 16 points at home!

Fake defending champions? Really the defending champions?

The appearance of the Nine Star Warriors amazed the world, but the biggest focus of the world was on the second day of another game!

Indiana Pacers face Toronto Raptors away!
