Chapter 216: One Month

Time passed in a blink of an eye, Ye Xuan gradually practiced the new skills he drew in this month, and during this period, he also went to China, participated in a China tour organized by Nike, and stayed in China for nearly two weeks, in addition to Beijing, Shanghai and Chengdu, Ye Xuan also quietly went to several places by himself.

After the end of the Nike China tour, Ye Xuan continued to stay in China to complete Lenovo's endorsement advertisement, you must know that after Ye Xuan won the championship as the absolute main force, his popularity in China soared to a very amazing level in an instant, especially when he also used Jordan's 'The Last Shot' method to complete the stunner in the finals and won the most valuable player award in the finals, which made the Chinese people directly regard Ye Xuan as the savior of the men's basketball team.

To tell the truth, the Chinese men's basketball team gradually began to decline after Yao Ming retired, although in Asia relying on Yi Jianlian's excellent performance, the men's basketball team can still achieve good results, but it no longer has the feeling of looking down on the world back then, and Iran, Syria and other teams have become difficult, and now there is a Ye Xuan suddenly, which makes everyone look forward to the men's basketball again, but unfortunately this time in the World Cup, the Chinese team did not participate, Otherwise, they would have been able to see Ye Xuan's performance in the national team this year.

After the end of the trip to China, the time has entered September, after Ye Xuan returned to Indiana, he began to do some systematic training, because a new season is about to usher, Ye Xuan needs to slowly begin to adapt to the rhythm of high-intensity games, although there are still nearly two months before the start of the regular season, but counting the preseason and the time of the team's collective training, there is actually not much time to rest.

However, during the time that Ye Xuan went to China, the alliance changed dramatically again. On August 24, the Timberwolves officially announced that they had completed a three-way trade with the Cavaliers and 76ers. At the heart of the deal is Kevin Love, with "Eros" officially heading to Cleveland to join LeBron James. In the 14-15 season, the Cavaliers formed a new Big Three to aim for the NBA championship.

The details of the three-way transaction are as follows:

Cavaliers get: Kevin Love

Timberwolves get: Andrew Wiggins, Anthony Bennett, Thaddeus Young, trade exception ($6.3 million value)

The 76ers get: Alex Shevid, Luke Richard Bamot, 2015 first-round pick

In this way, the East has become the Cavaliers in charge in an instant, the NBA hegemony of the first two years, the Heat, after James left, immediately withdrew from the championship, although they still have Wade and Bosh two cores, but their current strength is obviously not enough to support them to win the championship.

And this year's new champion Pacers, the same, after Pickles Pepper announced that they would miss most of the regular season this season, the Pacers' championship situation is not optimistic, especially after Pickles Pepper was injured, the Pacers' many veterans who are talking about have declared bankruptcy, which also makes the Pacers' summer reinforcements come to naught.

Other teams are even less worth mentioning, the Wizards' backcourt guns quarreled for the ball, the Hawks side is Louis Williams running away again, and the Nets can be said to be disbanded directly, because they were not able to keep these veterans, Paul Pierce went to the Wizards, Sean Livingston went to the Warriors, and even Marcus Thornton went to the Celtics, obviously the Russian predator's ruble was not able to keep the hearts of these veterans.

And for the top management of the Pacers, this is destined to be a very difficult holiday, because they have not sold the players in their hands, so for the sake of the lineup, Ye Xuan is likely to play the position of scoring guard or even small forward in the new season.

However, just when Ye Xuan was still worried about whether he could adapt to the position of small forward, the Pacers were once again involved in a multi-party big trade involving four teams. The main body of the trade is about Dion Waiters of the Cavaliers, George Hill of the Pacers, Iman Shampert of the New York team, and Lance Thomas of the Thunder.

The specific trade details are that the Cavaliers sent Dion Waiters to the Thunder, Alex, Louis Armondson and a 2019 second-round pick to the Knicks, George Hill and a "very well-protected" first-round pick from the Pacers and the Thunder, and the Thunder sent Lance Thomas to the Knicks. In this deal, in addition to Chris Copeland coming to New York, it will also bring the Knicks a trade exception worth about 6 million. The rest, of course, belonged to the Pacers, who acquired Iman Shambaugh, Smith and a trade exception worth about $250.

That way, the Pacers got a decent swingman, a $250 trade exception, and a tricky stab. -Smith is in this trade because New York has asked if the Pacers want to get Iman Shambaugh, and Smith is the addition to the deal.

However, although the Pacers have paid a very good guard and a bench player, only in exchange for a swingman and a thorn, but from the perspective of lineup matching, the Pacers' current roster is much better than before the trade. First of all, the starting lineup became Ye Xuan as the point guard, Shambaugh's scoring guard, Solomon Hill's small forward, and David West and Hibbert's interior line.

Bench tops were Starkey, Smith, C.J. Watson, as well as Scola and Marcinmi. These are the regular rotations, along with the two water cooler keepers, Donald Sloan and Lavoy Allen. Such a combination of players is much more scientific than putting George Hill on the bench and playing just over twenty minutes per game.

- Smith this thorn, - Smith has intersected. Since Ye Xuan was able to convince Stephenson's brainy guy in a few words last season, Smith shouldn't be a problem.
