Chapter 427: Pakleli's Knock
In fact, some clues can be seen from this season's rankings, and the waves of superstar transfers in the offseason have reshuffled the forces of the entire league.
Some have skyrocketed as a result...... Like the Bulls, of course, the rise of this team, the addition of Boozer is one thing, the arrival of Thibodeau, the explosion of Derrick Rose and the growth of Noah are the key to the strong rise of this team.
Another example is the New York Knicks, whose sixth place in the East is already their highest ranking in the East in the past five years!
Others have fallen as a result.
For example, the Cavaliers, who were second in the East last season, are now 14th in the East, and the Suns in the West, who reached the finals of the West last year, are only ranked 13th in the West so far this season.
But compared to these teams, the Miami Heat are a little embarrassed!
They're obviously the biggest winners this summer, but now they're awkwardly sitting in ninth place in the East, well, not as good as the 76ers and Pacers without superstars.
Coupled with the outbreak of public opinion caused by "hitting the shoulder door", it is time for the Heat to have some changes!
***
"LeBron, I have to make something clear, I can't come out and take the helm, the only thing you can rely on is Eric, and at the same time, I can give you a hint, if you continue to have a stiff relationship with Eric, then it will be difficult for me to carry out the rest of my work!"
Pakleli talked to LeBron again, face to face, he didn't know whether LeBron deliberately bumped his shoulder, but he knew that if he didn't show his attitude this time, then LeBron James was likely to further intensify the conflict.
He had to give LeBron some warning: "The Heat are not like the Cavaliers, there are so many things involved behind it, even I can't do everything completely according to my will, and Dwyan, he's been a good boy for so many years, he wants to believe that you have no problem, if you want to make this the second Cavaliers, I think you may need a little bit of time, first you have to get the fans here to recognize you!" ”
Although he doesn't know if this is Rich Paul's subjective thoughts or LeBron's personal wishes, Pakleli knows that he must get LeBron to stop any of his restless thoughts and let him know that this is Miami, not the Cleveland where the whole city will spoil him!
"So, while the Miami fans are still a little patient, I hope you can prove yourself!"
LeBron looked at Pakleli's serious appearance and didn't say anything, just nodded slightly.
The conversation ended in such a hurry, and it didn't seem to be fruitful, but Pakleli knew that his words should have spoken to LeBron's heart.
"The guy from the small city...... "It's too messy!"
Pakleli didn't say the next sentence in the end,
He probably knows what LeBron or the team behind him is thinking, nothing more than trying to force him out and increase the Heat's chances of winning the championship in the new season, but this is Miami, and some tricks don't work here!
***
'It was really just a misunderstanding, there's nothing to say, the situation is a bit awkward at the moment, but we're going to have a player-only conversation and I hope that this conversation will help us sort things out!'
The day after the conversation, LeBron took the initiative to mention "slamming the shoulder door" in a personal interview, once again attributing the matter to a misunderstanding.
The fact that the team's current poor record will be resolved in a player-only meeting is tantamount to putting the team's poor record on their players, and has nothing to do with Alex Poelstra.
This is helping Spoelstra drop the pot on his back!
Taking the initiative to exonerate his own head coach is rare in LeBron's career.
"Okay, LeBron is already talking to you during the interview, and then I think he will be much more honest, so you can do what you ask!"
Pakleli was also relieved to see what LeBron said in this interview, but fortunately, this guy really listened, and he immediately called Spoelstra.
Spoelstra, who had been suffering for days, finally calmed down after receiving the call. After a while, he can finally focus on the research competition!

November 21.
The Milwaukee Bucks host a challenge from the Kings.
There are so many teams in the NBA that are born with a little back, obviously trading players who perform well, but in the end they rot in their own hands, such as the New York Knicks, they would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let go of one, when a player who has played in a contract year appears in the free market, they will immediately give a big contract to snatch the player in a grand manner, but I don't know why, they have grabbed one by one over the years, and finally hoarded a bad vote, but now they are finally alive again, Because those rotten contracts have already expired!
There are also some teams whose management has good luck, but the players' luck is a little worse, such as the Trail Blazers, Roy who fought in 06, played the third percentile of the league early, but now the meniscus is torn and reimbursed, and in 07 he was lucky to get the top pick and got the genius Oden, who is known as "a rare encounter in the NBA in 20 years", and the result was also reimbursed!
But the Trail Blazers, with Aldridge, still stood tough in the top eight in the West, how tenacious!
There are also some teams that have been fish belly for many years and are purely the result of the death of the team's general manager and the big boss's indulgence, such as the Kings, their general manager Divac sold everything that could be sold in the team under the banner of rebuilding, and the chips that could be exchanged were worse than one another, causing the Kings to be unable to stop on the road of fish belly!
The Bucks, who are the first team in the East, will naturally be an easy slaughter when they meet such a team.
120 to 95, 25 points victory.
Yi Jianlian's performance in this game was still very good, with 36 points, 13 rebounds and 7 assists.
Mo Williams also performed well today, scoring 23 points and 7 assists, which is completely at the level of a point guard above the first line in the league!
'We're strong, there's no doubt about that, and for us this season the goal is very clear, which is to defend the title!'
A big win continued to cement the Bucks' No. 1 position, and Yi Jianlian was very confident in his post-game press conference that the Bucks' goal this season is to defend the championship.
But when he returned to the locker room, he was stunned, the Bucks guys were there, but the atmosphere was very dignified.
"What's wrong?"
Yi Jianlian thought that these guys were going to make some jokes, think about it, is it because the team has won 10 consecutive games? Or who has a birthday?
Mo Williams raised his head and said to Yi Jianlian: "Yi, I just received a call from my agent, I was traded!" ”
"What?" Yi Jianlian was stunned, "You're not kidding, are you?" ”
