On the evening of April 30, there was a shocking cheer in the Minnesota Target Center, and thousands of fans in the stands were cheering and hugging, but Li Shihao was surrounded by his teammates and let the cheers around him roar in his ears.
It's finally over, they defeated the Dallas Mavericks, who are second in the West, 112-103, and they have made history by completing another Black Seven tragedy in the history of the league!
When the final whistle sounded, Li Shihao's originally energetic body suddenly felt like it was being emptied, as if the oxygen in the glass bottle was evacuated in an instant, and all his physical strength escaped from his body.
"Finally won!" Li Shihao crossed this thought in his mind, and couldn't help but look at the head coach Frank Vogel watching the game on the sidelines, and saw that he was clasping his hands to his chest at the moment, and his eyes were looking at him.
Li Shihao felt the appreciation in the eyes of head coach Frank and couldn't help but smile slightly.
He scored 38 points, 8 assists and 3 steals tonight, and used his own points to help the Minnesota Timberwolves successfully advance to the second round of the Western Conference playoffs.
He was unstoppable tonight, and no one in the Dallas camp could limit him, including Jason Kidd, who had rich defensive experience, but he blew the latter up, preventing the latter from only scoring 8 points and 7 assists, completely reduced to an invisible man on the court, and completely unable to help the team establish an advantage.
Jason Kidd is indeed getting old, and his scoring ability has become even more unreliable due to the erosion of time. When the team is against the wind, he can no longer step up and carry the team forward.
The years are not forgiving!
I still remember that in the 07 season playoffs, when the Dallas Mavericks and the San Antonio Spurs met in a narrow way, the young and vigorous "French sports car" Tony Parker completely crushed Jason Kidd with his strength, so that the latter came to Dallas. has become the object of criticism from fans.
Now, Jason Kidd has once again been blown up by the young No. 1 spot, and the local fans in Dallas can't even get angry, and when the Dallas media began to count the players after the team's loss, these Mavericks fans lamented the passage of time.
Jason Kidd, who once walked out of Dallas, is finally old, even if he has always been reluctant to admit it.
The shooting is more iron than before, the defensive end is starting to leak, the rebounds have reached the point of grabbing teammates, and the once best point guard is old.
Even. Sensual Dallas fans are even beginning to miss the "Son of the Wind" Nash, Steve Nash, like Jason Kidd, is a top point guard who came out of Dallas, and now it looks like Jason Kidd is old, so how long can Steve Nash last?
However, Mavericks owner Mark Cuban doesn't think so, and his heart is bleeding. But he had to grit his teeth and endure it.
When a reporter from the local media in Dallas interviewed him, he asked how the Dallas Mavericks will bring in reinforcements next season. Whether or not to embark on the road to reconstruction.
Mark Cuban's face twitched, and he said bitterly: "The Mavericks will never stop reinforcing the team, we broke into second place in the West this season, but because the team's defense is not deep enough, we lost the opportunity to compete for the championship, but this summer's player market is very exciting." We have a clear goal and will find the right championship puzzle pieces for the team! ”
Mark Cuban was clearly out of the way, he kicked Steve Nash out, and he kicked Nelson Sr. out to prove that the Mavericks could win a championship. In order to prove that the Mavericks can win the championship, he paid a high price to build a championship team for the Dallas Mavericks.
Now, Mark Cuban has reached the point where there is no way back, he can only go on resolutely and continue to "do not hesitate"!
This summer's offseason is the last chance for the Dallas Mavericks, with the superstars of the 03 platinum generation expiring their contracts and intending to test the free market, and even Melon Anthony, who has signed a long contract, is planning to ask the team to trade and leave the Denver Nuggets.
Mark Cuban intends to clear Dampier's multi-million contract to free up salary space to earn a chance for the superstar to join.
Dallas is a big city, ranking not low in the United States, definitely within the top ten, in terms of urban development potential, even if it is inferior to big cities such as Los Angeles and New York, but the gap is not too big.
In Mark Cuban's mind, the "little emperor" LeBron James is the most perfect target in his mind, if the Cleveland Cavaliers still can't win the championship this year, the "little emperor" LeBron James is very likely to leave his home city and switch to a team with the ability to compete for the championship, and this team is willing to give LeBron the core status.
Best, the development potential of the city where the team is located is not low, after all, LeBron James is not willing to go to a ghost place like Milwaukee and deal with the sea breeze and wet weather every day.
There are definitely not a few teams interested in the "little emperor" LeBron James this summer, just like the New Yorkers, who are ready to play badly, and they are ready to trade their poor record for a top-ranked draft pick in order to attract LeBron James in the summer market.
However, in Mark Cuban's view, New Yorkers are labeled as stupid and rich on their heads, especially James Dolan, the big boss of the New York Knicks.
Did this guy think that LeBron James would come to the Knicks because of the bigger economic fist in the city of New York?
You must know that the New York Knicks have been rotten in recent seasons, from the bones to the skin are hopeless, even if LeBron James likes the prosperity of New York, I am afraid that he will stop because of the bad rot of the Knicks.
If LeBron James leaves Cleveland, then it must be to win the championship, if he comes to a team like the Knicks that has no hope of winning the championship, what is the difference between staying in Cleveland!
Is it just a little more money-making?
In Mark Cuban's view, there are not many teams in the league that meet the standards of "little emperor" LeBron James, and it just so happens that the Dallas Mavericks are one of them, and Cuban has also communicated with the core of the team, Dirk Nowitzki, who said that if LeBron James is willing to parachute into Dallas, he is willing to take a back seat and become a second-in-command.
That being the case, are there any other questions about LeBron James' choice?
Mark Cuban is even ready for a welcome reception for LeBron James, and in his opinion, as long as he can welcome LeBron James to join, even if it is worth trading Jason Kidd and them together.
Dallas will be the place where LeBron James ascends the throne, just before the emperor comes!
