Chapter 440: The 2012 playoffs have begun, and the first round of the New York derby civil war!!
When Jiang Chao was still correcting the sitting posture of Sasha Minato when he sang "Sorrow", Wright of the Warriors finally couldn't help but call once.
"I don't have any suggestions, you guys have explored it yourself, we have only used him a few times, how can there be his manual."
Jiang Chao said that he couldn't help, in fact, Thomas Jr. could play, it depends on how the warriors adjust.
As for the recent record problem, it belongs to the painful period of the run-in of the lineup, and the rookie wall of Thomas Jr. may not be enough.
The current Warriors team is really a bit explosive, as soon as Thompson left, the defense and height of the guard line plummeted, and Thomas Jr. also scored 36 points in the Warriors' debut with 30+7.
But how to say it, he's crazy about abusing vegetables, but after playing a few strong teams, his true form is revealed, and everyone knows how to defend him.
Assist defense + properly block his way out of the ball.
After all, he is not the invincible king of the Green Army that Jiang Chao knew in his previous life, and he is only a rookie rookie who has only played for half a season, and it will definitely take time to cultivate if he really wants to take on heavy responsibilities.
So after Thomas Jr.'s various 8 points + 4 assists + 5 turnovers and other statistics, the Warriors fans had a headache, and fans of other teams laughed at him after being traded.
But so it is.
The deal is complete, the wood is done, and there is no regret medicine in the world, and the strong game played by Thomas Jr. is really strong, that is, the kind of offensive 1V1 that feels undefensible, and this visual sense is sometimes stronger than the champion Owen, because of his height and speed, if he is close to him, he will really pass everything in one step.
So there's really nothing to spray Jiang Chao, and you don't think it's okay if you say he's playing with warriors.
The year before last, exchanging Jerome James for Yi Jianlian was the real trick, and it was a useless player.
And David Lee is very stable, averaging 12 points and 8.1 rebounds per game after arriving at the Warriors, which is not bad, after all, it is also in the run-in period.
It can only be said that the locker room conflict between Thomas Jr. and Monta Alice gave their management a headache, and Thomas Jr.'s undulating performance was too much of a headache.
After Wright's call failed, Lacob also had to call Jiang Chao.
There's really no way, he has been praised by fans as a contemporary philanthropist, ironically he is the most charitable boss in the NBA in the past 3 years, from giving up Curry to signing Jordan Hill as a garbage insider, and now to Thompson to the Knicks, plus some operations in the middle and various teams, he is about to be sprayed to death.
"After a few games, the performance is stretched! Little Thomas shows his feet!"
"True drip vegetables, the strongest on the surface 175??? The most rubbish!"
"After meeting a strong team, he was studied thoroughly, and Thomas Jr.'s performance was completely stretched!"
"The manual is only in the hands of Boss Jiang Chao?"
"Klay Thompson, on the other hand, played his place with the Knicks, and he was very comfortable as a role player."
"Boss Lacob is going to throw up, haha."
"What kind of garbage you bought!"
"It is recommended that the Warrior Boss buy Boss Jiang Chao directly, only in this way can the Warriors be revitalized."
"Hahahahahaha!"
"Ditto!"
After reading these posts, Rakko couldn't help but feel uncomfortable.
It's so uncomfortable to see him.
Jiang Chao made him a little more uncomfortable.
He directly expressed Thomas Jr.'s shortcomings on the phone.
Rakko doesn't: "You tell me what the shortcomings are, I want his strengths, I want to use his manual!"
Jiang Chao: "Only when you know the shortcomings can you prescribe the right medicine!"
"Say it!"
Laco was not brought into the pit by Jiang Chao again.
Jiang Chao motioned for Sasha Minato to stand up and sing, and then sat down in the locker room and explained to Laco a little.
"The height problem, the strongest on the surface is 175, this title really should belong to him, but why is there no surface most
Strong 190, strongest 196 on the surface?
Because there are too many people of these heights playing in the NBA, and there is no point of victory.
Unlike Thomas Jr.'s height, there are only a few 175-strong players in the NBA in history.
On the offensive end, Thomas can also rely on his dribbling skills and flexible movement to find space to shoot, but his defense cannot threaten the projection of opposing players.
So far in his career, Thomas has been a strong player in attack and weak in defense.
There are few steals, and blocks and rebounds can only be relied on luck, but in the NBA, where there are many masters, no one will let Thomas cover, let alone let him grab the rebounds in the frontcourt.
"Actually, I want you to talk about his personality problem, Boss Jiang."
"Don't worry, that's it."
Personality problems are actually the biggest reason why the Knicks sold him, but as far as the Knicks know, the outside world thought that the Knicks were doing charity at the time, and Lacob was not a fool, and he also found out that this kid had a personality problem when Thomas came to his team for more than 1 month.
Jiang Chao only said this question now.
He didn't know much, but he reminded him of Thomas's personality problems in his previous life.
Thomas Jr. is overconfident, he is the third in the scoring list, he is the king of the last quarter, he is an MVP candidate, he is a two-time All-Star, his self-confidence has come to the peak, he said it's time to win another championship for Green Kai, he said that he is 1.75 meters Garnett, he said that his switching layup today is a bit like Jordan, he said that no one can guard me, I am the top point guard in the league, he said that there are a lot of teams willing to take the money of the truck to sign him, and he also said that the five-star Warriors in 2K are all rookies......
It's a crazy person!
"But don't worry, he definitely has the ability to score 50 points in a single game, and you should know this, I didn't cheat you."
Jiang Chao said with a smile, it was not a blow that Thomas Jr. scored 53 points in the playoffs in his previous life.
But you can't say too much about the Warriors' advice, you have to trade something for too much, right?
Apparently Lacob is willing to change:
"Let's talk about Boss Jiang, I'm engaged in biological science and medical technology investment, so you can tell me directly."
"Tell me how to train him."
The difference between talking to the general manager and talking to the boss is this, the general manager is only in charge of the team, and the exchange of interests can only be at the transaction level.
But the bosses are different, and the bosses generally have their own side hustles or main businesses in addition to NBA investment.
For example, Lacob is a well-known investment giant in the field of biological sciences and medical technology, now with assets of about 1.5 billion US dollars, and in 1987 he served as a partner in a well-known American wind company, Lacob's main investment direction is life sciences, medical technology, Internet and energy companies.
"Then invest in me in sports medicine."
"In a word, I have the resources."
"Okay, then I'll have the assistant contact you later."
At Sun Yat-sen University, NTU and other universities investing in sports medicine is what Jiang Chao has always wanted to do, because he has signed so many athletes, plus there is such a good team as Dr. Carter, it is best for athletes to do their own business in the future.
Now these athletes contracted by Chaoshen Sports are a lot of expenses to buy high-end medical equipment outside.
So he is also ready to enter and do all kinds of armor patents.
Including Chinese medicine Tuina and acupuncture fumigation, combined with Dr. Carter's modern medicine.
If this is done, Kobe James may come to his sports medicine department for diagnosis in the future.
The most important thing for high-level athletes is money, and what they lack and fear the most is the aging and diseased body.
So Jiang Chao has always wanted to do it, but he didn't find an opportunity.
But that's what the Warriors boss did, so he simply asked him to help.
Then he also said a little bit about how to use little Thomas.
Simply put, it's about having a defensive wing.
3D is the best, in fact, he wants to say in his heart that if Thompson is still there, the Warriors are now estimated to have a better record
A little.
Thomas Jr., who was pretentious in his previous life, overestimated his own value, and he flatly rejected a four-year, $70 million contract extension for the Green Army, unexpectedly that this would be the beginning of his future career.
Thomas Jr.'s success was built on the strong defensive system of Smart + Crowder, Horford + Bradley and others at the time, which covered up the disadvantage of IT height and allowed him to fire on the offensive end.
So Jiang Chao's suggestion to Lacob is that Alice and Thomas Jr. will definitely not be able to coexist, if you think about it, both of them are offensive guards, don't talk about Thomas Jr. is a point guard, what's the use of not defending?
There is also related to the sports medicine department, that is, to pay more attention to the health of little Thomas.
This kind of player who eats on speed and absolute physical talent will fall off a cliff as long as he is injured, so he has to be better protected than the usual muscular man.
"OK, thanks!"
Then during the All-Star Weekend, major medical majors such as Nanjing University, Sun Yat-sen University, and the Chinese Academy of Sciences received joint investment from Lacob and Jiang Chao, and all established super sports medicine majors as the reserve force of Chaoshen Group.
Of course, Jiang Chao's intention is to make good use of Dr. Carter's point, and the combination of modern medicine and ancient Chinese medicine makes the athlete's career worry-free discipline is indeed worth paying attention to.
You must know that in the Celestial Empire, this discipline will be blank in 2023, and there are, but they are all retired sports students or some fitness coaches, and in fact, this kind of high-end medical profession has to be studied by intellectuals with glasses.
To give a very simple example, in the NBA, you may continue to work after 2 days, and you have to take at least two weeks off in the CBA, not because of the team and players, but because of the medical gap, the development of the sports rehabilitation department here in the United States is too advanced, including some equipment is also the intellectual property of the West.
..........
April 2012.
With the final card spot battle, the 2011-2012 regular season is officially over.
In this season, the New Yorkers' experience is like a youth inspirational blockbuster, the Knicks directly won the first place in the league with 63 wins and 19 losses, and the posture and cards of the defending champion are full, which is to tell everyone that we are still absolute contenders for the championship this year!
And this is still the result of the last 10 games of the Knicks' various favors and rotations, otherwise it should be a high win of 68 wins, and even at the beginning of the season, if you know that you can win such a high game, it is not impossible to rush to a record of 73 wins.
But in fact, the other team in New York is also fierce.
Jeremy Lin was born out of nowhere, and when the team was in crisis, he led a group of substitutes to play a wave of 7 consecutive wins without Anthony and Xiaosi, achieving the "Lin Madness" that swept the world, and finally successfully squeezed into the eighth place in the East.
This means that the first round of the New York derby is going on, and the New York fans are in pain and happy, which is too much fun and exciting!!
You must know that Lin Crazy was a player in the Knicks Development League the year before, and he was also a player in the Knicks' summer league this season, and was later poached by Boss Cai.
And Boss Cai still has a cooperative relationship with Jiang Chao, and the big boss of the Nets, the richest man in Russia, and the Celestial Empire are also in a cooperative relationship, and this feeling of cannibalism is a bit interesting!
This season, the Rockets, who were teetering on the edge of the playoffs, suffered a six-game losing streak at the end of the season that they had not seen in several seasons, thus missing the playoffs and belonging to the first Texas powerhouse in the West to fall.
This season, Roy announced his retirement, Uncle Oden has been away from the game for a long time, Aldridge also left the game early due to injury, the injury crushed this talented team, and the Trail Blazers vet was also circulated at this time.
This season, the Bostonians still enter the playoffs in fourth place in the East, and this may be the last season of the Big Three's cooperation.
But in front of them is likely to meet the Knicks in the second round, Green Army fans have already defaulted to GG, although the Green Army has a good record this season, but against the Knicks is 4 games lost, and was eliminated by Curry
After killing one, the beaten heart is convinced and has a psychological shadow.
However, the Big Three have always been quite high-spirited.
They may be old, but they still have an extraordinary sense of self-esteem, perseverance, and pride that can only be built with championships and victories.
This season, the unwatched Indiana ended up in third place in the East, and if it goes well, they will face the second-place Heat in the second round in the East.
The spirit of that Pacers basketball team is back: teamwork, trust, hand-to-hand combat, defense, the outdog, the three-point shot.
Big Bird Bird is still a cow, this is something Jiang Chao didn't expect, he can train Cousins to become a T0-level big center in the league so quickly, mainly to play with Hibbert's inside twin towers, and George Hill of the Spurs is a player in the system, and his understanding and running of tactics are getting more and more slippery.
This season, each team has its own story......
Duncan was reduced to an ordinary center with an average of 15+8 per game, and Nowitzki was ruthlessly blocked by Wei Shao and directly on the international hot search......
The league's history will record the accolades of the 2012 season:
MVP: James
Best Defensive Player: Tyson Chandler
Best Rookie: Irving
Best Sixth Man: Ginobili (Interestingly, the second place is Yao Ming, because this guy is too famous)
Best Coach: Stevens (It took 3 seasons to go from 4th and 3rd in the East to the current No. 1 in the East, and he deserves this award)
Most Improved Player: Ryan Anderson
Scoring champion: Durant averages 28 points per game
Rebounding leader: Howard averaged 14.5 rebounds per game
Assist leader: Rondo averages 11.6 assists per game
Steals King: Paul averages 2.5 steals per game
Block King: Ibaka averages 3.7 blocks per game
The Knicks players can be said to be full of honors, and at present, it is the interior line that supports the Knicks, Curry Harden's words are still not very stable, and the interior defense supported by Howard, Ibaka, Yi Jianlian, Yao Ming, and Dio is the basic handicap!!
So if you meet the Nets in the first round, the Nets' All-Star center Standudemire will be uncomfortable!!
