On October 4, the new NBA season began slowly, and this day was the opening day of the preseason.

In the 2010-11 season, the NBA battle began.

On the same day, at 12 p.m., a message appeared on the Warriors' official webpage: The Warriors reached a three-way agreement with the Cavaliers and the Clippers, and the Warriors sent Billups and a 2011 first-round draft pick, and traded for Cavaliers power forward Jamison and the Clippers first-round draft pick, while the Clippers got Billups, the Warriors' main guard during the past two consecutive championships.

In addition to a first-round pick, the Clippers also sent the team's hard-working superguard Randy Foye, and the Cavaliers sent the main power forward Jamison and the 2011 second-round pick.

The advent of this deal has excited fans of all three teams, and judging from this deal, it can be regarded as a win-win-win situation.

The Cavaliers suddenly lost the little emperor, and their first priority was to mess up, so a star like Jamison who could affect their performance was better to send them away - after all, his salary was still quite high, and his ability was quite strong, what if he accidentally led the Cavaliers to a good score?

Now the Cavaliers have only one goal, to finish last in the league, and then get the No. 1 pick next year.

So, when they found out they could send Jamison away and get a potential new star, they naturally rejoiced.

Randy Foye has a league-leading physique, and in addition to his long arms and muscles, he also has very good bounces, reaching 0 on his run-up jump. 97 meters.

From the perspective of play, Foye is similar to Stephen Marbury and Steve Francis, and is the typical "New York defender": super good on the ball and super strong in singles. In addition, in terms of appearance and style of play, Foye has many similarities with Wade: strong body, super long arm span, as well as speed and basketball IQ, and even in college, Foye was used to play power forward because of his strong body.

For the Cavaliers who are preparing to rebuild, Foye's attitude is full of temptation, especially since this kid has a lot of potential, not only on the offensive end, but also on the defensive end.

Long arms combined with a strong body constitute a prerequisite for a good defender, and while Foye is still far from being good, he is a good learner and will be a nightmare for every opponent if he is determined to be a playmaker in the future.

Needless to say, the Clippers have returned Griffin, the No. 1 pick they drafted last season, and with Griffin on the inside, the offensive firepower is turned on, and now the problem is that they lack a guard who can give Griffin a strong delivery of shells.

And so, Billups came into their sights.

Billups' ability to organize the offense is not to be said, and he has been partnered with Chamberlain for three seasons and has a lot of experience in how to give the ball to the jumping man, so that his partnership with Griffin can be expected.

Moreover, the Clippers also have a potential guard Eric Gordon, and Billups can be Gordon's teacher when he comes.

The Warriors sent Billups, and it was tough for them because it turned out that Billups was the most qualified helmsman for this team, but unfortunately with Curry's maturity and West's rise, he had to give way, and the Warriors' guard line was already a bit crowded.

Although the Warriors have sent Morrow away before, their guard line is still a bit crowded because Barnes and Jackson can both play shooting guards.

Getting Jamison can improve the strength of their forward line, in the past, regardless of whether Jackson or Barnes played forward, the offensive firepower of the Warriors at this position was not strong enough, so Chamberlain suffered too many traps.

And the arrival of Jamison, one of the league's top swing forwards, has been famous since the University of North Carolina, and his fundamentals are very solid, and he can occasionally play as a point guard.

You know, Jamison has super abilities inside and out, and he is 2 tall. At 06 meters, he has a beautiful long-range shooting ability, and this height plus 210 pounds of weight can constitute a standard body for a forward-type player, as long as the coach gives an order, Jamison has become a blue-collar player, and rushing to grab rebounds and play under the basket has also become his business.

However, Jamison's innate introverted personality makes it difficult for him to become a star player in the league, and for him to follow his coach's instructions, he sometimes has to put more effort into defense.

For the current Warriors, this qiē is not a problem, Chamberlain and Ibaka are both defensive masters, Jamison can be liberated, and the most important thing this team is now is the leader, so Jamison's low-key and calm temperament just makes up for the violent crisis of the Warriors who have too many strong generals.

In addition, Carter was particularly pleased with the arrival of Jamison, who played side-by-side at the University of North Carolina for three seasons in the NCAA and were selected to participate in the NBA draft together at the end of their junior year.

At that time in the NCAA, Jamison's fame was not inferior to Carter's, and even more athletic than Carter, and many NBA critics predicted at the time that Jamison would become the league's top power forward in less than three years.

And the draft results of the North Carolina comrades-in-arms were also quite dramatic - Jamison was selected by the Toronto Raptors for the fourth time, and then traded with Carter, who was selected by the Golden State Warriors for the fifth, and they both became the team's mainstay and box office guarantee in their first season, both selected to the rookie first team, and Carter took away the rookie of the season trophy.

In 2006, the two appeared together on the All-Star court, and the two North Carolina pride had reached the peak of their careers at this time, and they were even more brothers-in-law, because Carter's wife and Jamison's wife were a pair of sisters!

The reason why the Warriors chose Jamison instead of finding a big man to replace Chamberlain is also due to Carter's problems, last season in the Magic, Carter's table was too sluggish, and the Warriors were not very relieved.

There is no doubt that this won Carter's approval, and Carter was very happy to learn that Jamison was coming to the Warriors, and even went to pick up the plane, and he met the reporter at the airport, this time he did not dodge, but took the initiative to find the reporter and began to talk: "Unbelievable, man, it's really unbelievable!" My old buddy and I are playing together again, and I have to think about it, when was the last time we teamed up? Oh, the NCAA Final Four in '98! You know, there's a wonderful bond between the two of us, and I bet we're going to have chemistry, and you'll see, the North Carolina duo is here again! ”

For this transaction, Jamison is even more happy, he defected to the Cavaliers last season, just to follow James to win a championship, but he didn't get the championship, and the thigh he wanted to hug ran away, which made Jamison vomit blood angrily and almost ready to retire!

Being able to come to the Warriors this time, Jamison is closer to his goal of winning the championship, and Carter is still here, and he has a good relationship with Hill, so he is naturally happy to come to the Warriors.

Five minutes after the trade was posted, another message appeared on the Warriors' homepage, which was a little inexplicable compared to the Warriors, Clippers and Cavaliers trades: "The Golden State Warriors have signed point guard Larry Byrne from Alaska on a ten-day contract worth $26,000. ”

Larry Byrne? Who is this point guard? All the fans who follow the Warriors and the NBA are at a loss, not only the fans, but also the experts.

Fortunately, the Warriors immediately held a press conference, which was held in the press conference hall of Oracle Arena after Jamison's arrival.

Richard attended the press conference with Nelson Sr. and Chamberlain, which shows how much the team values Jamison and Larry Byrne.

At the beginning of the press conference, Richard personally handed him the No. 4 jersey that Jamison wore when he was with the Warriors.

After receiving the jersey, Jamison even burst into tears, saying, "I'm back, guys, I'm finally back with the Warriors." Now I'm so excited, I'm like a kid who has been away from home for many years, going out into the world for a spin and finally coming home, it's a great feeling. ”

"I'm a little late, but I swear that since I'm home, I'll do my best to help the family, and I'll get acquainted with the family in the shortest possible time, and then give our extended family as much energy as possible."

"I can't wait to go to our arena, I can't wait to see my brother, I can't wait to play my opponent!"

Jamison's speech was eager, but the reporters did not pay much attention, and everyone pointed their cameras at Jamison's side, where there was another player waiting, this player, a child-looking and skinny child.

Larry Byrne!

After Jamison spoke, Chamberlain stood up as the master of ceremonies and introduced: "Ladies and gentlemen, let's use a round of applause to bring out another player we have signed, guard Larry Byrne from Alaska. ”

"Larry Byrne is nine years and ten months old, he loves the game of basketball and has been following NBA games since he was five years old, and it is an honor that we were awarded the right to sign him after our consultation with his agent, Mr. Gerry Byrne!"

After speaking, Chamberlain handed the microphone to Nelson Sr., he took out the prepared Trumpet Warriors No. 23 jersey, Larry's excited little face flushed, and then Chamberlain squatted down and handed the jersey to him, after which Richard and Nelson Sr. also squatted down, and reporters took pictures.

Information about Larry quickly found its way into the hands of reporters, including the NBA's Office of the Commissioner's Office of the 2011-Special 16, which was signed by Stern and Adam Shaw to allow the Warriors to sign a player younger than 18.

The ins and outs of the matter were quickly figured out, and the reporters on the scene were immediately in awe of the Warriors, and the press conference was not as chaotic as before, and the reporters' questions were also orderly, that is, a few regular questions asked by Larry Bourne: "As the youngest player in NBA history, Larry, how do you feel right now?" ”

"That's great, sir, and I'm so proud to be in the NBA."

"Coming to the defending champions, Larry, how are you going to help this team?"

"I will give all my energy to the team and do everything I can to unite my teammates and achieve more results together."

"The NBA is a brutal game, are you ready as a rookie? You may encounter a lot of difficulties, it will be very painful, are you ready to face these tribulations? ”

"I have been preparing for too many years, and I am not afraid of difficulties, I never cry when I am in the hospital, and I will take no matter how bitter the medicine is. Plus, like Uncle Jamison, I can't wait to get on the field, guys, who of you would like to join me in teaching the other 29 team bastards? ”

Chamberlain stretched out his fist and bumped into him, saying, "Brother, let this day come sooner!" ”

"Z, how do you think Larry will help your team?"

"Oh, Larry's fighting spirit, his energy, his skills, that's going to impact our team, and I think with him, we're one step closer to a championship this season, which is good, we're all excited, you know, he's such a guy with a lot of potential, he can help us so much!"
