In August, the only operation of the Suns' management was to renew the contract of the interior "Little Overlord" Amare Stodamimair in advance with a five-year 73 million maximum salary.

No one is surprised that last season Smalls became the first spokesperson of the NBA's brutalist faction, and compared to his scoring ability, explosiveness, and offensive spectacle, even the "Rain Man" Kemp in the 90s was slightly inferior.

Xiao Si has become the NBA's premier interior star, and many media say that his contract, like Guo Xu, still belongs to the category of low salary and high energy.

Harpy Waters had already calculated an account for Smalls, he extended his contract early in 2006, and he was only 29 years old in 2011, and the chances of signing another big contract are very high, and if he becomes a free agent at the age of 30, it is not easy to sign a long-term contract with a high salary.

He also had the option to jump out of his contract in 2010, when he was 28 years old, and there were certainly more teams willing to pay the maximum salary, and he could make a lot of money whether he stayed or left. In addition, he received a lot of advertising endorsements and entered the ranks of rich players early.

Bryan also offered Nene a five-year, $50 million early contract extension with an average annual salary of $10 million, which Nene did not accept from his agent, although he played as a substitute for most of the team.

In Guo Xu's previous life, Nene did not accept the early renewal of the Nuggets, and signed a long-term contract with a high salary of 60 million for 6 years in 2006, and it was under the premise of season reimbursement.

Nene was reimbursed for injury after playing just three minutes for the team in 2005-06 and was still recovering from his big contract when he signed his big contract, missing 27 games in 2004-05.

The data in this life is average, but it is healthier than in the previous life. His greatest strength is his youth and he has shown off his athletic prowess. Many teams are willing to bet on his talent, and the Suns will not be able to keep him if he does not renew his contract early.

Nene doesn't want to stay with the Suns anymore, he already has two championship rings in his hand, and if he wins more, it will be three, and there is no shortage of team honors in this life. But he was only a rotation player on the team, and he was a higher pick in the draft, and he didn't want to be a substitute for the rest of his life.

In August, there was only one big trade in the league, between the Knicks and the Bulls.

The Bulls sent Eddie Curry and veteran Anthony Davis to get the Knicks power forward Tim Thomas, forward Michael Svetney and guard Jemenie Jackson.

It looks like the bull is losing badly, and the manager is crazy. In fact, they didn't pay much, and they certainly didn't get anything.

"Little Shark" is a high-paid and low-energy, poorly defensive, and the fat content is seriously excessive at first glance. Not only is he slow to move and can't defend against pick-and-roll, but he's even so lazy that he doesn't want to grab rebounds in position, and he doesn't even care about the data.

This big fat man who is 213cm tall and weighs 134 kg played an average of 28.7 minutes per game last season, scoring 16.1 points, 5.4 rebounds and 0.6 assists. What is this concept? The big man who grabs rebounds a little more aggressively, and he doesn't get stuck and only picks up rebounds near the restricted area, and his efficiency in grabbing rebounds is not as good as that of some swing people.

However, Knicks manager Isaiah Thomas treated Curry as a treasure, signed and then traded with the Bulls, and gave him a six-year contract of 56 million.

Curry would definitely be a cabbage price if he got this contract in 2018, but in this era, he can be selected as one of the top 10 garbage contracts in league history.

In September, Guo Xu returned to Phoenix after his vacation, recuperating and waiting for the start of the new season. He didn't practice, and although he was full of energy, he was very mentally exhausted.

When he was in Los Angeles, he went to dub the movie "Kung Fu Panda", which was much more difficult than he imagined, even with professional voice actors as guidance, he still felt that one head and two were big.

Before doing this, Guo Xu always took it for granted that the sound was matched after all the animation was done. In fact, modern Hollywood animation studios already have a mature workflow to ensure that costs are controlled as much as possible, and several major studios have the same approach, first the storyline, then the script, and then the storyboard (film and television storyboard).

Ordinary live-action movies will also create storyboards to express the plot of the script, but after the storyboard creation of the animation is completed, there will be no major changes, and the artist will complete the creation according to the storyboard.

Next, the director will play the storyboard frame by frame according to the script's lines to estimate the time of the finished film, and then it is time to find an actor to dub the voice, and the actor will complete the dubbing of all the lines according to the storyboard in the recording studio. Why dubbing first? Because the animated characters are so lip-syncing.

Next, there are professional steps such as completing the character image, modeling, rendering, etc., which are particularly troublesome, and finally synthesize a complete animation. The creation of an animated film often takes several years and many people to complete, so it is very expensive to complete.

If someone asks, "What is China's national treasure?" No matter which Chinese will answer "panda" in unison, this is a cute business card that China has given to the world.

Guo Xu wanted to impress Chinese fans, so he decided to dub Panda Po, whether it was the Chinese version or the English version, it was said that he would dub it.

However, when he was dubbing in the early stage, Guo Xu was in the NBA season, and he was not available at all when he flew around, and a group of people couldn't wait for him. So the other characters completed the dubbing before doing the animation, and Guo Xu did it alone later, not according to the customary process.

He was very confident at the time, he had seen the English and Chinese versions of the original "Kung Fu Panda" in his previous life, and had an impression of the sound, how difficult could this be? It turned out to be really difficult, because he had to lip-sync as much as possible, and he had to speak naturally and in a tone that fit the plot, and he had to match a paragraph many times before he could pass the level.

In Guo Xu's opinion, the final version of "Kung Fu Panda" has become less interesting, this is his nightmare!

Other voice actor Robert contacted several acquaintances, and Meghan voiced the new character Ahri, who is Po's childhood sweetheart.

Jason Statham dubbed the South China Tiger Big Brother, which is different from the original Tiger Girl setting, the big brother likes to be handsome and cool, a little arrogant, but he is a tease B in his bones.

Dustin Hoffman dubbed his master's "unhappy cat", which is the image of Guo Xu's puppet "Bucky", who looks unhappy all day long.

Jackie Chan dubbed the golden monkey, Guo Xu and Hollywood Chinese movie stars have seen it, and Jackie Chan is willing to join in the fun.

It was too easy for the Suns to win the championship last season, Guo Xu inevitably swelled a little, he felt that as long as he maintained the style of play last season, the team would not fall into injury trouble in the new season, and it would be no difficult to establish a dynasty for three consecutive championships.

He doesn't need to put a lot of effort into it, and even if he plays a weak team in the regular season, he needs to release water appropriately and focus more on organization.

It is precisely because he believes in the current group of teammates that Guo Xu insists on not signing any players from the management, leaving that quota vacant. This makes the Suns the most unique defending champion team in NBA history.

Xiao Si is still on a rookie contract next season, and the annual salary is not high, even if the salaries of Guo Xu and Marion increase year by year, the Suns are also the second-lowest salary team in the league, only higher than the Bobcats, which is a terrible gimmick.

The Phoenix press took the trouble to interview people to see if the Suns would make a big deal.

Guo Xu gave a clear answer: "There will be no big deals, I like to play side by side with my teammates who have run in, rather than changing the lineup frequently, veterans Gary (Payton) and Tony (Kukoc) are enough, we will be the strongest team in the new season." ”

"Joe Johnson is leaving, aren't you worried about the failure to defend your title?" The reporter asked.

"No team can beat the Suns."
