The finals in '09 weren't exciting, with the first calves on one side and the tigers coming down the mountain on the other.

Although the newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, it is not afraid of returning, and it is not really beatable.

The Lakers won the Magic cleanly 4-1.

Coleine won the O'Brien Cup and won the first Finals MVP of his career.

When the gold ribbon floated down from the sky above Staples Arena, Kobe Bryant showed the most comfortable smile, as if something that had been tied for years was finally done.

Speaking of which, at this year's All-Star Game, although Kobe Bryant met O'Neal with a smile and grudge, he should still have a breath in his heart, and only at this moment did he really lead the team to win the championship, so he really had a grudge against O'Neal.

This is Kobe Bryant, a man who is paranoid to the extreme, and can only be truly liberated if he really accomplishes his goal.

Of course, for a paranoid like him, relief is only temporary, and soon he will set new goals for himself and continue to chase them.

Life is not endless, and the competition with oneself is endless.

During this period, the league announced the league's best team for the 08~09 season.

All-team in the league: LeBron James, Dirk Nowitzki, Dwight Howard, Kobe Bryant, Dwyane Wade;

Second Team of the League: Tim Duncan, Yi Jianlian, Yao Ming, Chris Paul, Brandon Roy;

Three All-NBA teams: Cameron Anthony, Pau Gasol, Shaq O'Neal, Chauncey Billups, Tony Parker;

Yi Jianlian finally fell into the second team of the league's best team.

However, this can actually be thought of as LeBron James's MVP of the regular season this year, if he can't get in for a while and is squeezed by Yi Jianlian, it is unreasonable!

"Yao was also selected for the second team, and Chris was also in the second team, this, how do I feel that the second team is more fierce than the first team?"

"Hahaha, Yao plus Tim can really suppress Dirk and Dwight, and the advantage of the inside line is already obvious!"

"I guess the voting experts were also shocked when the final results came out, right? These two formations are even more powerful than one formation! ”

It's just that in this way, many fans have complained that the second formation may be more powerful than the first one, and if you really want to play, you can at least have a 70% chance of winning.

After all, there is an obvious shortcoming in the first team, that is, they don't have enough points for a ball, and Howard is also known to be soft when he meets Yao Ming, and these two shortcomings are enough to win the game in the second team.

***

Yi Jianlian didn't care about these things, in fact, he lost to the Magic in the last game and started special training directly after returning to Milwaukee.

Naturally, the trainer who gave him special training could not be Jessica anymore.

Yi Jianlian is clear about this, and Jessica is also very clear that after Yi Jianlian's scandal came out, she gradually lost contact with Yi Jianlian, and until Yi Jianlian officially made her relationship public, she never contacted Yi Jianlian again.

Some people are like this, they come in style, and they can walk in style.

Yi Jianlian is looking for Steve, a former trainer.

This summer, Yi Jianlian's main improvement is still physical fitness and three-point shooting.

Yao Ming's injury results are out, and he may have to be reimbursed next season, and this year's Shaq O'Neal can still make three teams, which is enough to show the lack of traditional centers in the league now.

These are the signs that the era of small balls is coming.

What is most important in the age of small balls?

Pointers!

Of course, the era when everyone shoots three-pointers will have to wait for a while, and it will have to wait until Xiao Hua takes the position and promulgates the evolved version of the "cylinder rule" to protect pitchers.

As for the start of next season and Xiao Hua's ascension, there will be a few years of "group era".

It's just that during this time, the status of the three-point shot has also risen at a rate that has not been seen before.

Yi Jianlian naturally has to pay more attention to the three-point shot.

Now that he's shooting 78 from three-point range, he's trying to improve to around 81 this offseason, and hopefully by the time the new season begins, he'll be able to use the three-point shot as a regular weapon.

Although he hit 136 three-pointers last season, and he also had a 43.1% shooting rate, it was all open shots, facing defenders, his three-point shot was still a little watery, which is why he didn't dare to shoot more three-pointers last season.

During the period of Yi Jianlian's special training, Dan Fagan was also busy, and he was going to various teams for trials with the rookies he signed this year.

Dan Fagan's current agent company is actually owned by Yi Jianlian, his original agent company has been dissolved, leaving only three players, Yi Jianlian let the people stay, all of them are current all-star level players in the league, it can be seen that Yi Jianlian has no interest in those small fish and shrimp, only players above the all-star level He is willing to pinch in his hands.

"I just want All-Stars and nothing else."

These are Yi Jianlian's original words.

This high vision makes Dan Fagan, an old bird who has been in the agent circle for so many years, sigh a little to himself.

No way, he is greedy for money, as long as there is an opportunity to make money, he will not let it go, no matter how small the mosquito is, it is meat!

However, Yi Jianlian, who has such a high vision, asked him to sign a few more newcomers in this year's draft, and even gave him a list.

Oh God, is that necessary? How many newcomers can emerge from this year?

Doesn't he know that almost all of the NBA's scouts have called this draft the least favored in the last decade?

James Harden? That little fat guy from Arizona State, sign him? He's got asthma, OMG!

Stephen Curry? The white shooter who was called the next Ray Allen? But, Yi, what kind of shooting space do you think a thin arm and thin leg like Stephen can have? I even suspect that he shattered after being hit!

DeMar DeRozan, he's a great point guard off the bench!

Ju Holti......

Jeff Teague ......

What is this?

Dan Feigen complained in his heart.

But Yi Jianlian is now his boss, and he can only do it if he gives him a candidate.

After a month of hard work, he ended up signing three players, James Harden, DeMardeRozan and Ju Holiday, and he failed to sign the rest.

However, it is already a good result to be able to sign three newcomers in a draft, and Dan Fagan's influence in the agent industry can also be seen.

After signing, Dan Fagan took the three newcomers to various teams for tryouts, and the results were not bad, and all three guys received verbal first-round signing promises from their favorite general managers.

In particular, James Harden received a commitment from general manager Pletis during the Thunder's tryout, and the Thunder held the No. 3 pick in this year's draft.

"It's not in vain!"

Seeing the harvest, Dan Feigen also reported to Yi Jianlian with satisfaction.
