Chapter 535: Team Gathering (2)

When the team assembled, there were a lot of newcomers to the team.

Chen Jiyuan came to the arena early, it can be said that Chen Jiyuan is a little excited, this season may be nothing for others, nothing special, although the Knicks successfully introduced Andre Iguodala, but also let go of Rodney Starkey, which is not profitable. After all, if you wear it alone, when it comes to attacking power, Starki is even stronger than Andre Iguodala.

But only Chen Jiyuan knows the fact that Starkey will go downhill more and more, although it is not necessarily this season, and it will not necessarily be that Starkey will not go downhill because of the butterfly effect in this life, but at least, on the defensive end, Starkey and Andre Iguodala have no way to compare, and in terms of outside shots, Starkey and Andre Iguodala have a gap of 108,000 miles.

Starkey has never been able to practice long-range shooting, which is a big reason why he can't survive with the Knicks. Sessions' three-point shot is getting more and more accurate.

After Iguodala came to the Knicks, he still chose the No. 9 jersey.

The newcomer Stephen Curry is different from his previous life, not choosing the No. 30 jersey that he should have chosen in the Warriors, but choosing the No. 28 uniform.

Let's be honest. Stephen Curry will become his fan, even Chen Jiyuan did not expect it at all. However, it's okay, Chen Jiyuan knows Stephen Curry's future, because Stephen Curry's metamorphosis is accurate, but he is the outside three-point shooter that everyone in the league wants. However, there was actually no Stephen Curry in Chen Jiyuan's team building plan, because Stephen Curry's figure is relatively thin, which is indisputable, so it will naturally suffer more on the defensive end. And Stephen Curry is indeed prone to injury. Originally, according to Chen Jiyuan's idea, even if he wanted Stephen Curry, he could wait until Stephen Curry's rookie contract ended before going to Stephen Curry, because Chen Jiyuan knew that Stephen Curry did not get an offer for a maximum salary contract after the end of his rookie contract, but was picked up by the Warriors with a 4-year $44 million contract. It can be said that the Warriors have accumulated blessings in their previous lives. After Stephen Curry renewed his contract, he immediately showed the strength of the league's top stars. Let every team admire the Warriors' luck to the end. Because Stephen Curry had just returned from injury at that time, no team was willing to risk Stephen Curry, and no team would be willing to give Stephen Curry a contract with a maximum salary, so at that time, as long as the Knicks offered Stephen Curry a contract with a maximum salary, Chen Jiyuan believed that Stephen Curry was not stupid. Forced, know how to choose. However, after Stephen Curry expressed his infinite admiration for Chen Jiyuan, this situation was not allowed, because Stephen Curry resolutely stated that he wanted to play with his idol Chen Jiyuan. And Chen Jiyuan, who knows Stephen Curry's future, is not averse to this situation. That's why before the draft, let Latin find someone to trade the draft pick. Stephen Curry was chosen. It can be regarded as the so-called plan is not as fast as the change.

Andre Iguodala and Chen Jiyuan are old friends. teammates other than Chen Jiyuan also greeted each other, and then hugged Chen Jiyuan. Andrea Iguodala said with a smile: "I didn't expect us to join forces so quickly." ”

Chen Jiyuan also smiled. And he smiled with satisfaction: "I didn't expect it to be so soon, I've been ready to compete with you on the stage of the finals after three years." ”

Andre Iguodala said happily: "You knew we could make it to the finals? ”

Chen Jiyuan shook his head and said, "We are not entering the finals. It's about winning the championship. Not yet one. Nor two. At least three. It's a dynasty. I'm going to build our dynasty here. ”

Chen Jiyuan's words still had a big impact on Andre Iguodala, this goal is different from ordinary people, who normally want to win the championship. Then, after getting two or two, he will change his goal to become a dynasty. And now Chen Jiyuan has proposed to establish a dynasty here on the premise that the Knicks can be said to be a championship and has not yet won, so Chen Jiyuan is either a big man with big ambitions, or a rookie who doesn't know how deep the NBA's pool is. And Chen Jiyuan is obviously not the first year to enter the NBA.

For people like Chen Jiyuan, there are many people who will scoff at it, but there will also be many people who think that Chen Jiyuan is a person with great ideals.

In addition, the newcomer Ty Gibson, who was selected by the Knicks with the 26th pick, is a very active guy on the court, and he is quite quiet off the court, maybe because of the first meeting, all a little nervous.

For the choice of Ty Gibson, Chen Jiyuan has also thought about it for a long time. In the end, it was Thibodeau who decided to choose this man. That's what prompted the Knicks to pick this guy with the 26th pick.

Chen Jiyuan was not surprised at all that Thibodeau chose Ty Gibson, because Ty Gibson is a typical lame general. This situation is also quite common in the NBA. Ty Gibson is dynamic on the defensive end and has good footwork, excellent one-on-one defense, and strong blocking ability. He is a typical defensive titan. It's Thibodeau's dish.

But if it weren't for the weakness of the offensive end. There's definitely no way for Ty Gibson to fall to the end of the first round.

Chen Jiyuan and all the old people greeted these rookies one after another. In the NBA, although Chen Jiyuan will not care about this set. I won't do this, but newcomers often grow up under the bullying of the elderly. So, it's foreseeable that Ty Gibson, Stephen Curry and Marcus Thornton won't be in a good place.

Ty Gibson chose the number 21 for the jersey, while Marcus Thornton chose the number 23.

Anyway, Tay Gibson originally planned to choose No. 22 as his back number. But alas, the Knicks' No. 22 has been retired. Dave Debusscel retired the No. 22 jersey with the Knicks. So Ty Gibson had no choice but to settle for No. 21.

Speaking of which, there are a lot of people in the Knicks' 20-plus uniforms. No. 21, No. 23, No. 27, No. 28. Moreover, none of these four people are water cooler keepers. All of them are rotational players who can play. Well, of course, in the eyes of the outside world, Ty Gibson. Marcus Thorton. It's hard to say how much time the three rookies will have for Stephen Curry. However, with the precedent of Love, other teams also have some grasp of the Knicks' courage to let newcomers play. After all, Love started in his rookie season and averaged 35 minutes per game this season.

Therefore, it is difficult to say how much playing time Stephen Curry, Ty Gibson, and Marcus Thornton will get. However, the order of these three people is indeed a little behind. After all, Lefu is the fifth in line. Ty Gibson and Marcus Thornton were at the end of the first round and midway through the second round. There will definitely be less time to play. Even Thibodeau, a daring master, didn't dare to be too nervous.

The team's teammates chattered and hugged each other. Everyone bragged to each other, talking about the girls they played with during the holidays, how big their butts were, how big their breasts were, and so on. Then it's time to officially enter the training phase.

After all, it's a holiday, so it's definitely a little bit of training that isn't so intense first, so that everyone's body can recover for a while
