219. Strong team detector (first change)
"The Rockets made an offer to trade Anthony to the Nuggets?" Sun Ce asked in surprise.
Trade Anthony ...... What's the picture?
"Yes, my agent told me." "It's going to be harder for us to compete in the playoffs with the Rockets, but the Nuggets can't, and we're missing a competitor." ”
"This doesn't have to be......" Sun Ce feels that this world is very different from his original time and space, and it is actually the Rockets who are ready to trade Anthony with a large number of draft picks and role players!
Anthony is good at positional singles, but he is a good match for Yao Ming and Scola inside, but Brooks and Martin ...... The back line is another style.
The Rocket team will not necessarily become stronger, but the probability of becoming weaker is not big in Sun Ce's opinion, and there are Yao Ming and Anthony who are at their peak, and they can't find out where they are.
But the Nuggets may get tougher, at least not to be taken lightly during the regular season, and their head coach is George Karl's unrestrained old man...... Maybe the regular season will get even better!
Sun Ce's view on this matter is a little different from that of other players and the management of his own team.
While chatting with Guy about the team's recent deal, getting two pitchers and other possible trades, Sun Ce and Guy wandered between several apartments that Bill Duffy had offered.
It was all within a three-kilometer radius of the stadium, but it didn't take too long.
Going around and around, and finally ...... I still chose the one I saw at the beginning, not far from the hotel I am staying in, next to the river.
Guy complained: "Noah, I said, you came to see this place in the first place, didn't you just decide directly?" Anyway, it's just renting an apartment, and there is a villa near my house to sell, only 500,000 ......"
"Can't afford it."
"I heard that you are going to sign an official endorsement, and the houses in Memphis are very cheap......"
Guy Mouth ...... I can't stop.
And Sun Ce didn't know where this guy got so much gossip, and he regretted asking Guy to help him look at the house, and finally rented an apartment on the riverbank that was only more than 300 meters away from the hotel he stayed in......
After renting an apartment and buying a pickup truck, Sun Ce's off-site activities today are over.
Following Guy's advice, he asked a renovation company that Guy was familiar with to redecorate his rented three-bedroom apartment, which was less than half the rent of the tiny two-bedroom apartment in Auckland......
As for the pickup truck to buy a car, Sun Ce wants to be convenient, and it will be more convenient to go to the stadium warehouse to get his luggage when the time comes.
……
……
"Hello, Noah, I'm Sean, we've played before."
"Hello Sean, you're my favorite defensive player......"
"I'm honored, I heard Yao mention you in the playoffs last season, but I didn't expect you to be so good now."
"Thanks, now that you're back, our hopes for the playoffs are higher......"
"Of course, we're going to make the playoffs......"
Looking at Sun Ce, who had a good conversation with Battier, Chris Wallace felt that the future of the team was bright.
After the Rockets got Martin and didn't interest in Mayo, Chris Wallace was going to trade the Warriors' draft pick for Battier, and the Warriors' draft pick was all possible, and the Warriors' draft pick was worth a second-round pick or a first-round swap in a certain year.
But Mayo was traded, got back a pitcher and a promising center, and got back a Cavaliers draft pick.
Originally, Chris Wallace wanted to use the Cavaliers' 2011 first-round pick to trade with the Rockets, but the Rockets did not agree, and Chris Wallace had to send his 2011 first-round pick away, leaving the Cavaliers' 2011 first-round pick, which is now predicted to be after the 25th pick.
This makes Chris Wallace a little regretful, but it would be nice to have a first-round pick from the Cavaliers in 2011.
……
Sun Ce got to know two new teammates, Battier and Cook.
"Sean Battier, Ability Evaluation B+, Offense B-, Defense A, Three-Point A, Mid-Range Shot C, Layup B+, Speed A-, Power A-...... Averaged 8 points, 4.4 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 0.8 steals and 1.2 blocks per game......"
"Brian Cook, Ability Evaluation D+, Offensive C, Defensive D-, Three-point B+, Mid-range ......, ...... layup, ...... speed 1.6 points and 0.8 rebounds per game......"
Battier is very good, has a very good defense, and if it weren't for the decline in physical fitness at the age of 31, maybe the defense would be stronger, the second defense player of the past two seasons.
And Mr. President is confident that he will not fight for the ball or team status, and it seems that he will easily accept the coach's arrangement.
But with a sense of confidence.
Conversely, Cook, the first-round pick of the '03 golden generation, averaged 1.6 points per game and had little ability to score from near and medium range, and the scoring area was just outside the three-point line or two points long, or an unguarded catch-and-go layup under the basket.
Slow speed, no explosiveness, defense basically equals side effects, no rebounds, no passing...... Sun Ce didn't know how this guy got 10 million in 3 years...... Even if the last year is non-guaranteed, 6.5 million in the first two years is very different.
After saying hello, Cook didn't dare to speak, and smiled shyly......
The Rockets gave two of the most extreme players on the team to the Grizzlies.
Although he bought a high-quality role player and had to eat Cook, Sun Ce felt good, he was a big man who could shoot, and it was not impossible to use Matt Bonner without defense.
I got to know my new teammates and took a look at the current squad of the team.
Outside: Conley, Battier, Anthony Parker, Marcus Williams, Gay, Carroll.
Inside: Randolph, Sam Young, Cook, Darrell Arthur, Gasol Jr., Jordan Jr., Haddadi......
With six outside teammates and eight inside teammates, Sun Ce feels that his team really loves the inside line......
Unable to care so much, Sun Ce continued to seize the time for personal training.
Tomorrow is the 6th, the whole team training will begin, Battier, Cook, Anthony Parker, Jordan Jr., all four are new, before playing consecutive away games, Anthony Parker and Jordan Jr. have not experienced the team's formal team training, and then we must better integrate the new players into the team and prepare for the next home opponent, the Dallas Mavericks!
Although the Mavericks' playoff record is not good since being blacked out in 07, the regular season is still very good, with more than 50 wins in the past two seasons.
The current Mavericks have become a strong team detector, and if they can't even beat them, they can't be called a playoff team.
So this game the Grizzlies take very seriously!
