Chapter 261: Summer Finally Arrives

The Angelenos lifted the final O'Brien Cup once again, and the Green Shirts fled the City of Angels with exhaustion and loss without another glance.

The official team of the Lakers had already prepared for the championship ceremony, and when the whistle blew at the end of the game, the Lakers staff had already set up the podium, and the lights of the whole court were dimmed.

In the dark Staplesley, there was only a bright spot on the court, Kobe Bryant grinned, held the golden trophy in both hands, and hugged his good friend Pau Gasol with a look of satisfaction.

From today on, he has surpassed O'Neal, the big shark, and no one will accuse him of being inferior to O'Neal, even in the face of basketball god Michael Jordan, he is only one championship ring away!

Arguably, he is already the most historic player on the active roster, and even the Spurs' Scott Duncan has only four championship rings, which is one step away from him.

At this moment, Kobe Bryant really stood at the top of the league, and the achievement of two consecutive championships made many fans who said that Kobe Bryant was old speechless.

This season, the Cleveland Cavaliers have played the best record in the league, James is far ahead of the MVP rankings, and there is a trend of winning the regular season MVP for consecutive years, and even the championship is also very hopeful.

This once made many Jamie chickens froze, thinking that the time had come for LeBron James to ascend the throne and dominate, but he didn't think that in the playoffs, the situation and painting style have changed dramatically.

The Cleveland Cavaliers, who had high hopes, were swept away by the Big Three of the Green Shirts, but it was the defending champion Los Angeles Lakers who had the last laugh, and Kobe Bryant once again became the biggest winner this year!

After the final championship of the 09-10 season was decided, all 30 teams in the league have also started their preparations for the new season, and the game will still go on, and no one will miss next season!

This year's summer has been stormy. It is arguably the largest free market in the last decade, and many big-name stars will test the waters of the free market at this time.

The Mavericks' MVP core, Dick Nowitzki, will jump out of the final year of his contract to test the waters of free agency.

For Boston, two of the Big Three will test the free market, with Ray Allen as a free agent and Paul Pierce jumping out of the final year of his contract. Test the waters of the free market.

According to reliable sources, the Bostonians still want to keep the Big Three in order to challenge for the championship again, but how they keep Ray Allen and Pierce will be a big problem.

In the finals that ended not long ago, Ray Allen exploded in the second round, and in the second game of the series, he rained down on three-pointers, making eight three-pointers in a single game, seven of which were half-pointed. This record, surpassing Jordan and Pippen, broke the league finals halftime and single-game three-point shooting records in one fell swoop, and reached the top of history.

This made many fans in the league who accused Ray Allen of being a pseudo-giant dumbfounded, Ray Allen is undoubtedly still the killer Ray, his ability to kill the game is still not lost, and at the critical moment, he is still strong!

And it's because of that game. Boston Celtics management is also more interested in renewing Ray Allen's contract.

The dark tide in the free agency market is unpredictable, and the managers of each team are walking on thin ice. Meticulously sifting through every message from the outside world.

This year's free market will undoubtedly change the pattern of the league, not to mention the superstar players of the 03 platinum generation, let's say Nowitzki, O'Neal Jr., boxing champion Tyson Chandler, Xiaosi, David Lee, Kevin Durant, etc., every player will have a greater or lesser impact on every team in the league, and the butterfly effect behind this is too far-reaching.

On the other hand, Minnesota is quiet, and there is no news coming. The city is as peaceful as ever.

This has made many people in the league with a keen sense of smell sense that something is wrong, as the team that reached the Western Conference semifinals last season, the Minnesota Timberwolves should have the strongest desire to strengthen the team, and last season they exposed serious problems, the front line is not strong enough. It's okay against the Dallas Mavericks, but once they face the Phoenix Suns, who are on offense, they are completely at a disadvantage.

The Timberwolves still have a lot of room for salary, and they can sign many powerful stars in this year's free market and further upgrade the roster, but so far, there has been no scandal with a player, which is really unpredictable.

Minnesota, who is silent, is particularly concerned about the tryouts of rookie players, and arranges many rookie tryouts, which makes many basketball media people laugh secretly.

This year is a recognized draft year, and the Timberwolves don't have a top-of-the-line pick, so is it possible that they are counting on the prospect of starting from the middle and late stages of the first round?

You must know that in a pile of gravel, the possibility of choosing the pearl of the sea is too small, almost gambling luck!

Li Shihao didn't pay too much attention to these, he is a player, his rookie season has just passed, he is still quite shy about meddling in the team's affairs, and the most important thing for him at the moment is to improve his strength.

In this league, you still have to rely on the strength on the court to speak!

Li Shihao is convinced of this!

The Celtics series is also over, Ray Allen is here as scheduled, and the small team of summer training is completely in order.

That night they flew to Charlotte to train at a private training center there.

Charlotte is located in the largest city in North Carolina, where the basketball atmosphere is indeed very strong, as the place where the basketball god started, there have been many famous stars here, and the basketball training here is also world-famous.

During the training, Li Shihao automatically blocked the news from the outside world and began to concentrate on training.

In this regard, Lei Allen has given Li Shihao and Curry a lot of help, and Junzi Lei, as one of the superstars of the 96 golden generation, is naturally very solid.

Many fans who watched the Celtics play had the impression that Ray Allen was only a three-point shooter, but in fact, Ray Allen had a lot of real skills, and he was the biggest sacrifice in the Big Three.

Lei Allen's ability to shoot and pass can be sudden, and his skills are extremely comprehensive, especially the one-handed emergency stop jump shooting technique, which is old and ruthless, relying on unexpected jumps and lightning-like shooting speed after breaking through to jump shots, and the hands are up and down, steady and accurate, and the lethality is huge.

And Ray Allen's finishing ability under the basket is also good, breaking through quickly to shake the opposing player, and the layup after hitting the basket is extremely efficient, and the score is like a probe.

This time, Li Shihao and Curry benefited a lot from the joint practice. (To be continued.) )
