The 2010-2011 NBA new season, just started to give everyone a lot of new ideas, because this is completely different from the previous NBA season, the most different is the reaction of all the heroes at the beginning, the West, no longer the Lakers single-handedly the sky, the Spurs and the Hornets, the two teams that were completely unnoticed in the summer, but rode the dust, the old Celtics in the East became the leader of the East, unexpectedly, the Miami who formed the Big Three were pressed behind by the Bulls, And Xiao Si's performance in the Knicks also surprised everyone, in the context of such a big era, the financial tsunami turmoil has almost all passed, and the sales of NBA tickets, jerseys and other peripheral products in major cities have risen instead of falling.

David Sternle's eyes are almost open, but now the only ones who are happy are the teams that have the ability to attract fans to the stadium or the big cities of the United States, and a large number of teams are struggling to make ends meet.

The Detroit Pistons are such a team, the Pistons can be regarded as an old strong team in the league, and the most memorable is Jordan's enemy, the Detroit Bad Boys Army, and later the Detroit Civilian Army, which overturned the team of the Lakers, it can be said that the Pistons have always been a strong team in the league, but the current Pistons are a famous fish belly in the league.

They have been forced into the rhythm of reconstruction, under the influence of the financial tsunami, the original automobile kingdom is now in ruins, the original lively central station has also been defeated, and the population of the original city has been rapidly reduced.

Housing prices in the U.S. are already cheap, and many people have abandoned Detroit and moved to other cities, where there are enough jobs for them to work so that they don't starve to death.

Now the streets of Detroit, dilapidated houses and apartments can be seen everywhere, if Cleveland, which has lost James, is lifeless and known as the cursed city, then Detroit is definitely the best scene to shoot 'I am a legend'.

Even during the day, there are very few pedestrians on the streets, and some experts have speculated that if Detroit's population continues to lose like this, it will not be long before the name of the city of Detroit will be erased from the map of the United States.

In the context of such a big era, these people didn't have the heart to watch the NBA, and the Pistons are playing so poorly now, so no one wants to come to the NBA, which is also a thing that makes the owner of the Pistons very unhappy.

The Pistons are different from other teams, the NBA teams, their players may live in the suburbs, but their arenas are in the center of the city, where is the most prosperous place, while the Pistons, the arena is located on the outskirts of the city, Auburn Hills.

No one looks at it in the city center, let alone in the suburbs now, so since the beginning of this season, the attendance rate of the Pistons has not exceeded 50%, even if it is the first game of the NBA, their attendance is only 4 to 7.

As if affected by the decay of a nearby city, Auburn Hills Palace, now the home of the Pistons, is also dead.

The Pistons have a game here today, facing the Celtics, who have been gaining momentum in the league recently, and the attendance at home has reached 3 and a half percent, which is tantamount to a slap in the face for a stadium, because the owner intends to sell the team.

The whole team played half-dead, the DJ on the spot, the sound released would only make these people appear harsh but would not make these people feel the feeling of blood boiling, in such a dull game, the Green Army did not give the other party a chance from the beginning.

A strong suppression also made the Pistons slowly collapse, and now no one cares about winning or losing.

"Tracy, down!" Pistons head coach, John Kuist, looked at the people on the court and said softly.

The player who was still standing there could only walk off the court helplessly, and from the data recorder next to him, he saw his data, playing time of 4 minutes and 41 seconds, shooting 1 shot 0 hits, 0 points, 0 turnovers, 0 blocks, 0 rebounds and 1 assist...... This is his data, seeing this data, this man who ended up could only smile helplessly.

His eyelids seemed to shrug a little more, and his teammates next to him saw him come over and gave him a place, but no one handed him water and a towel, because he didn't deserve such treatment, and it would be good to give him a place to sit.

He needs to get the towel and water by himself, looking at the situation on the field, the man sighed helplessly, and after taking a glass of water from the water dispenser next to him, he took a towel and covered his head, he began to regret it...... Pistons head coach John Kuist glanced at the side, and the guy with helplessness written on his body smiled coldly.

This guy originally recruited him into his command, mainly to attract the audience with his popularity, and now everyone has seen the number of audiences, in this case, there is no need for him to exist, such a waste person for John Kuyster, did not let him sit on the bench, it is already considered to give him face, fortunately, this guy did not ask too much.

Thinking of this, John once again set his sights on the court, the situation on the court has been reversed, the Pistons must lose, now what John has to do is to lose more beautifully, at least let people have some memory points, looking at John Kuist's gestures, the Pistons began to attack with all their might, the Pistons will always be a defensive team, when they abandon the defense and play offense, their offense will be nondescript, which is also the biggest problem of the Pistons now.

And the guy who was full of helplessness just now is none other than one of the heroes in the basketball world, Tracy McGrady, Maddy is 31 years old this year, this is his 13th season, this seems to others to be a man of the golden age, but at this time he can only enjoy less than five minutes of playing time per game, for him, he has no way out now.

Maddie had a trial lap in the summer, Chicago, Cleveland...... Almost all teams have tried out.

In the end, only the Pistons asked him to sign him with a veteran base salary of 1.2 million a year and brought him to Detroit.

Originally, he thought this was his chance again, but now it seems that this opportunity is not good, and at the beginning of this season, Maddie will play a few minutes every game, go through the motions, and then be replaced by head coach John Kuyster.

With his talent squandered and his heavy knees unable to reproduce the flowing layups of the 'scoring champion era', Maddie could only sit on the sidelines with heavy ice packs wrapped in his knees and watch his teammates lose game after game.

"Is this the end of my time......" Maddie put a towel over her face as she looked at the situation on the field.

When no one saw it, two lines of tears flowed from Maddie's eyes, and he was unwilling.

Looking at Kobe, who is even bigger than himself, he has proven his strength again and again and won the championship, and he, a person who could be compared to him at the beginning, can only play for a few minutes per game now, how can he be willing to do so.

In the end, the Pistons lost the game 86-109, and the 23-point gap also proved the gap between the Pistons and other teams.

Like a zombie, Maddie returned to the locker room, took a shower, changed into clothes and went home.

No one is going to keep him, the NBA is such a realistic place, if you play well, naturally some people are willing to be friends with you, but now that you don't play well, then I'm sorry, even if I see you, I will pretend not to know you.

Maddie reluctantly walked to the underground parking lot, got into her car, and drove in the direction of home.

Just as he drove not far from the arena, a phone call came, and Maddie glanced at the screen and reluctantly picked it up.

"Hey, there's Tracy!" Maddie's voice was very heavy, and now he can be said to be the lowest point in his life.

"Hi Hi Tracy, I'm George, the same George from Cleveland, or that sentence, our boss wants you to join Cleveland......" This George is one of the Cavaliers scouts, and it was he who handled Maddy's tryout in the first place.

"I've already said it, now I'm a player with the Pistons, please don't contact me privately......" Maddie said anyway, he was also one of the superstars with the highest salary, he went to Cleveland for a tryout, was kicked out like a dog, and now let himself go back, he really can't wipe his face, so his voice is a little cold, and he doesn't want to go back to the Cavaliers.

"Hey, man, don't be so sure, in fact, you also understand that there are some conflicts between me and you, and I don't want to bother you if I can, but our boss has spoken, and he wants you, and if you want, he can even offer you a three-year guarantee contract...... Our boss is so good to the players, what Zhang means, he has to listen to ah! ”

"What?" Hearing this guy's last sentence, Maddie's car suddenly stopped on the road, fortunately it was the middle of the night, otherwise even if there were fewer people in Detroit, it was estimated that there would be a traffic accident, and it could be seen that he was really excited.

"What are you talking about? It's Zhang Kong......" Maddie asked cautiously, and after getting the answer, Maddie muttered for a while, and when he started the car again, a voice came: "I think I can think about it......"

found the first helper for Zhang Kong, Tracy McGrady, Quack Quack, there may be a lot of people who are his fans! Maddie's fans have always loved and hated him, this time it's up to a healthy Maddie to give Zhang Kong a hand! Aim for the overall championship!
