In fact, before Jordan said this to reporters, the United States sounded the red alert.

This is the highest alert level in the United States.

All television stations in the United States stopped live TV broadcasts, and all of them broadcast the footage of Jordan's press conference.

After Jordan said this, the reporters at the press conference directly stood up and applauded.

In front of many TVs, there are also many people doing the same thing.

Jordan is a basketball player, but his influence has gone beyond basketball.

In this moment, he is the savior of America.

But that's not all.

Not long after Jordan announced his second comeback, Barkley also announced on TNT that he would officially return!

"I'm going to be teammates with the most handsome man in the world."

Barkley's words are full of personal touch.

But this sentence, at this point in time, no one can guess what this sentence means.

He will join Jordan and join the Wizards!

The news of Jordan and Barkley's official comeback came one after another, and the major forums instantly fried the pot.

"Jordan: I didn't expect it, my successors, I'm back!"

"Now no one can stop me from watching the Wizards game, I want to watch Jordan and Barkley, and Yao Ming!"

"The Wizards are going to take off next season, Hamilton, Jordan, Barkley, Yao Ming, Leitner, they are missing a playmaker right now!"

O'Neal's grandmother has officially announced that he has joined the Wizards, and he will serve as the starting playmaker for the Wizards in the new season.

"Jordan can play playmaking, but I think they still lack a two-way guard who can score, like Sun."

"yes, looking at Sun and Yao's cooperation at the Asian Championships, they are a great partner, and he is a strengthened version of Cole, which will be a good fit for Jordan."

"Enhanced Cole...... Sun is not for sale in Dallas, and the Wizards can't get the whole team in exchange. ”

"In fact, it doesn't matter if you don't organize a guard, Jordan was the core of the team before he retired, as long as he finds someone who can shoot."

"Yes, this lineup has a chance to make it to the Finals tough Lakers."

“…… Brother, are you drunk? This is all in 2001, not 1995, 38-year-old Jordan, plus the same 38-year-old Barkley, and rookie Yao, can this lineup reach the finals? ”

"From a man's sixth sense, I believe they can do it."

"No way, if they can do it, I'll eat upside down!"

"Brother, you're ruthless enough, although I don't think it's likely, but I'm looking forward to seeing your video!"

……

Fans are not happy in the forum, and the Wizards are also seizing the time to operate.

Because the draft and free agency are over, it's hard for them to sign from the free market.

This is also a big reason why they are willing to sign Barkley.

Barkley has only been out of action for a year, but his size is clearly out of shape, and it will be a huge challenge for him to recover before the start of the game.

However, this kind of thing can be done in trading.

Because Jordan and Barkley returned to join the Wizards on a base salary, the highest-paid person on the Wizards' roster is Leitner at $4.5 million.

They were quick to make a move.

They traded a second-round pick to the Heat in exchange for Tim Hardaway!

This Hardaway is not Hardaway, but the father of "", nicknamed "Little Worm".

He was a five-time All-Star in his career and averaged 23.4 points and 10 assists per game in his peak season.

"Little Worm" is riddled with injuries and diseases, and it is no longer as brave as it used to be.

But the skinny camel is bigger than the horse, and Hardaway still averaged 14.9 points and 6.3 assists per game in 77 games for the Heat last season.

And it averaged 6.7 three-pointers per game while shooting 36.6 percent from the field.

can partner Jordan to play the starting team to open up space, and can also lead the team to score off the bench.

This is exactly in line with what fans say is a two-way guard.

The only bad thing is that Hardaway is 35 years old and has injury concerns.

But the Wizards only paid a second-round pick, and what more bikes do they want.

After Jordan went from management to player, the management of the Wizards seemed to have become savvy all of a sudden.

As for why the more savvy Riley made this deal?

Because after giving Hardaway a big contract of 12 million in friendship last season, he didn't want to do the same thing again.

Giving a star a pension contract, he will not do it a second time if he does it once, and no one will be able to do it in the future.

What's more, he dumped Hardaway and got a second round, and he made a steady profit.

As for strengthening your competitors?

After the Heat's Eastern Conference carrier capsized last season, Riley was already thinking about a rebuild.

The Wizards and him are no longer the same goal, and he is happy to make the Wizards a little stronger to consume other teams.

While fans are still talking about Jordan's comeback, the time has come to the end of September.

Sun Hao's personal training camp ended.

Before going back to their respective homes to find their mothers, everyone took a group photo together.

It's been a rewarding summer for everyone at the camp.

After finishing his personal training camp, Sun Hao took a break for a while, and then participated in the Mavericks' training camp.

The preseason is just around the corner in mid-October, and teams are already starting training camp, including the Mavericks.

Compared with last year, this year's team has personnel changes, and the biggest change is naturally that Uncle Huo is gone, and Lafrenz and Van Exel are here.

Lafrenz is a white player like Leitner, even the same height.

The difference is that Lafrenz is younger and looks stronger.

As for Van Exel, it doesn't match the atmosphere of the Mavericks, and at first glance it is the style of an American street player.

However, with Easley in the presence, Van Exel's integration will not be a problem.

Of course, in addition to these two major signings, the Mavericks have also signed some bench players in free agency.

Avery Johnson, the "Little General," showed good individual qualities when the Spurs played against the Mavericks last season.

Old Nelson had dug him up deep into the enemy camp.

Johnson is 36 years old, and he won't help the Mavericks much on the court.

But the tactical level is more significant.

Johnson played for the Spurs for seven years and he knows a lot about Popovich's tactics.

Old Nelson dug him up, and the signal couldn't have been more obvious.

As he told his players at the end of last season, he doesn't care if he plays other teams, but he has to die against Spurs.

In addition to Johnson, there are two other swingmen who are both defensive guards.

Adrian Griffin, 1m 96,98 kg.

This body type, this position, is obviously for Kobe.

The emergence of joint defense has made Nelson Sr. more ambitious.

This Griffin Sun Hao didn't have much of an impression.

But when he saw the other Frontguard Swingman, his face suddenly delighted.

"Raja."

Sun Hao smiled and walked over to say hello.

Another person, 1.9 meters tall and 97.5 kilograms, Laga Bell!

He's coming to the Mavericks, too!

Bale played summer league with Sun Hao, but in the end he couldn't stay with the team.

Unexpectedly, he went around and around the Spurs and the 76ers, and finally came to the Mavericks!

"Sun!"

Bell was relatively taciturn when he was in the locker room, but when he saw Sun Hao coming, his face suddenly improved.

Sun Hao's advice to him at the beginning benefited him a lot, and he finally managed to stay in the NBA.

He has deeply experienced the hardship of desperately staying in the NBA, so he is even more grateful to Sun Hao for being kind to him at the beginning.

Sun Hao smiled and hugged Bell.

The move stunned both Nowitzki and Nash.

Of course, they didn't remember that Bell played in the summer league with the Mavericks, but they were surprised that Sun Hao actually knew a newcomer.

Nash frowned slightly.

They had a deep relationship with the three friends of the Dallas grass last season, and they didn't know where to come out, and Sun Hao seemed to be very close.

Sun Hao turned his head and introduced Bell to Nowitzki and Nash.

Bale's words, the style of play is tough, top 3D.

Historically, Bell didn't play until the Suns until two years later, but he gave Bell advice last year, and the latter would play significantly earlier.

The Mavericks took him down as much as Avery Johnson.

It can even be said that in the next few years, when playing against the Lakers, there is no need for Sun Hao to go to Kobe Bryant.

With Bale here, he can go on the attack.

I took another look around the locker room.

Point guards: Nash, Van Exel, Avery Johnson

Shooting guards: Sun Hao, Easley, Bale

Small forwards: Finley, Nahoola, Adrian Griffin

Power forwards: Nowitzki, Kukoc, Wang Zhizhi

Centres: Lafrentz, Bradley, Collins.

This lineup is more reasonable than last season, and of course, it is more in line with the requirements of the old Nelson.

Sun Hao and Nash's two-way guards, Nowitzki and Lafrentz can all open up space and move fast.

Coupled with the increase in bench depth and the emergence of joint defense, the Mavericks are definitely going to have a big time in the new season!

This can be felt in the training after the start of the team's training camp.

The morale of the players was also high, and the smile on Nelson Sr.'s face never stopped.

But some people rejoice and some are sad, and those who are sad are ...... Wang Zhizhi.

Training camp is a time for teams to break in and try to rotate their roster.

But no matter what lineup the old Nelson uses, the rotation on the inside is basically Nowitzki, Lafrentz, Bradley and Kukoc.

Wang Zhizhi basically doesn't have much chance.

In fact, Sun Hao doesn't know much about Wang Zhizhi.

If you didn't accept his suggestion before, forget it, and quit his training camp early.

And the team's training camp was still white at the beginning, which is really incomprehensible.

If it weren't for the fact that they were all Chinese players, he wouldn't want to pay attention to it anymore.

It wasn't long before the start of the preseason season, and the Mavericks had a little bit of a problem.

Nowitzki developed some soreness in her ankle.

This is often the case with interior players, and it's probably because they practiced too much in the past summer.

Fortunately, at this time, the season has not yet begun, and Nelson Sr. can rest confidently and boldly let Nowitzki rest.

But even then, Nelson Sr. let Nahura come to play as a power forward more often.

This made Wang Zhizhi directly autistic.

After the training session was over that day, everyone else left, and Wang Zhizhi was still sitting there alone in a daze.

He looked like he was sulking.

Sun Hao sighed, and finally walked over.

How to say, Wang Zhizhi is also a very important component of the men's basketball team, and if the Chinese team wants to make a breakthrough in the competition, no one can replace him at this stage.

"Roughly, what's wrong, not in a good mood?"

Sun Hao asked after sitting down.

"Where do you think I'm worse than Nowitzki?"

Wang Zhizhi's words stunned Sun Hao.

He couldn't answer that.

No, when Wang Zhizhi asked this, he felt that he was no worse than Nowitzki.

This is not only arrogant, but also a little self-aware.

"If it weren't for the fact that I couldn't play abroad in the first place, my performance with the Mavericks would not be worse than Nowitzki."

Maybe the old Nelson would rather use Nahura to play as a big forward than him, Wang Zhizhi's mentality is a little broken.

He felt that Nowitzki had taken the place that should have been his.

Sun Hao nodded.

He could only nod, Wang Zhizhi's mood at this time was like a barrel of explosives.

He came to persuade Wang Zhizhi, and he must follow his words.

"I can't change the past, but I don't know what it means for old Nielsen to bring me from China and not give me a chance to perform."

Wang Zhizhi said half of what he said, and he didn't say the other half.

The Mavericks weren't a defensive team in the first place, and Nash played a lot of minutes like a poke.

Even Sun Hao's defense was not good when he first came to the NBA, and he also got the opportunity to play.

But he was the only one who was treated differently because he had Nowitzki in front of him.

Sun Hao didn't know what Wang Zhizhi didn't say, but after listening to what Wang Zhizhi said, he felt that the latter was too arrogant, and he was a little high-minded and low-minded.

This kind of character is useless for him to say anything.

The most realistic example is Kobe Bryant.

Looking at Kobe's previous mentality with the Lakers, snatching O'Neal's shot, he still felt that he didn't have to be worse than Iverson and Carter, and felt that everyone was just a high school student against him.

Wang Zhizhi: This is similar.

In other words, this is because the previous career was too smooth, and I didn't experience the beating of society.

However, the difference with Kobe is that Wang Zhizhi is only proud, has no practical actions, and does not think about changing and improving himself.

"Be patient, I'm sure Don will give you a chance, after all, the preseason hasn't started yet."

Sun Hao can only say this.

Wang Zhizhi sighed and didn't say anything more in the end.

After chatting with Wang Zhizhi for a while, Sun Hao got up and left the training hall.

He didn't go back to the locker room, but walked towards Nelson Sr.'s office.

He knocked on the door, and Nelson Sr. was still inside studying the tactics for the new season.

This season, the Mavericks have the quality to play the Spurs and Lakers, and he is more involved.

He was a little surprised by Sun Hao's arrival, and looked at Sun Hao with a puzzled expression.

"Don, I have a reluctant request."

Old Nelson nodded and motioned for him to speak.

After a season, he likes and trusts Sun Hao very much.

"I hope the team can give Wang a chance to start in the preseason."

Sun Hao then spoke, as he said, it was indeed a reluctant invitation.

But if you want Wang Zhizhi to change, this is the only way. Diagram of the Avenue of the Heavens
