Chapter 355: Savior

At first, James' absence from training due to injury seemed to some to be a trivial matter.

After all, no matter who is so humiliated in public, it will have to be delayed for a few days.

But as James has been absent for more and more periods, from three days, to five, and then a full week, speculation about when he will return has increased.

"I've been in touch with LeBron, I know what he's doing, and I know he needs time." Old K said, "I can wait." ”

However, a few days later, James' camp officially announced that LeBron must temporarily stay out of basketball due to a long-term toe injury, which is the biggest difficulty he is currently facing, and he is still willing to play for the United States team, but for now, he will focus on his personal health.

I like you a lot, but not like that.

I'm willing to give my all for you, but now I'm having a problem.

Our future will be bright, but it will take time.

Yes, all farewell letters are more or less the same.

LeBron James dropped out of the Dream Team due to injury, but probably only 1% believe he has an injury.

It's just a clichΓ© to get out of the game with dignity, because they can't say, "I hate Frye and I can't beat him, and you say I hate Frye so much, do you want to lick my face and stay on as a substitute for him?" If I hate Frye so much, why am I staying here? I wish you good luck. ”

Although the James camp stressed that their exit had nothing to do with anyone and was purely due to injury considerations.

But most people think that Yu Fei kicked James out of the American team.

Because the content of the match is already known to the world, many basketball experts vividly describe the details of what happened on the scene.

There is also a small part of the video that the Flying camp deliberately disseminated to make the legendary articles about that match, and the conspiracy theories that were later generated after James quit the national team, become credible.

On the day James retired from the training camp, Kwame Brown was promoted from the melee to the senior team, where he will compete with the likes of Dwight Howard, Tyson Chandler and others for the only two center spots.

It can be said that Brown's promotion to the senior team is a concrete manifestation of Yu Fei's influence in Las Vegas.

As far as FIBA games are concerned, Brown has neither Chandler's physique nor Howard-esque athleticism, and he is the last choice of the two, but because he has Yu Fei's cover, he is actually a higher priority than Chandler in the eyes of the coaching staff.

At the same time, Brown doesn't feel that he can take for granted a relationship that is covered by a big guy.

He can't make himself taller, and he can't awaken the anti-heaven system to strengthen his physical fitness, but he can work hard to shoot and turn himself from a pure paint area cake man to a multi-functional blocker who can be salted and salted.

But shooting can't be done quickly, and Yu Fei is happy to see Brown break through himself, which is good for them.

While the U.S. team is in full swing in Las Vegas, the league's teams are also making targeted reinforcements for the upcoming new season.

Among them, there is no one who is most eager than the Cavaliers, Lakers and Spurs.

The knight's anxiety stems from a sense of urgency.

James has ended his four-year rookie contract, and his 2+1 contract will take effect for the new season.

They only have two years to increase the competitiveness of the team, so they must go all out to strengthen it, otherwise it is highly likely that James will leave after two years.

The Cavaliers first got hope of reinforcement from the Kings in the West.

The Kings are currently trying to get rid of Ray Allen and Ron Artest, and the Cavaliers' first target is Ray Allen, but the Kings ask too much and can only choose Artest.

Artest's trade value fell to a low point with his cancerous performance with the Kings.

The Cavaliers used only Drew Gooden, Ira Newbell and a 2009 first-round pick to get the famous Anti-Big Fly armored Artest.

However, this seems to be the only thing the Cavaliers can do, they lack the bargaining chips and the salary space needed to throw money at it, but it is not a failure to sign Artest, and when they face the Cavaliers again in the new season, they will not have to worry about who to defend.

The anxiety of the Spurs and Lakers is consistent.

Kidd has always wanted to leave San Antonio, and Bryant is tired of playing a one-man show, and he wants the Lakers to use their resources to bring him a second star.

This has put an eyebrow between the Lakers and the Spurs.

In terms of relationships, Hu Ma had a lot of grievances at the beginning of the century, and if it wasn't for the lack of choice, no one would want to make a deal with each other.

Offers in the East are unattractive, while in the West, the two clubs that are most reluctant to trade are showing interest in Kidd.

With the Lakers on one side and the Mavericks wishing they were dead on the other, who would they trade with?

The Mavericks are generous, and they are willing to put the promising Devin Harris on the shelf, but the Spurs understand that Kidd can really make the Mavericks cause big problems for themselves in the coming years, and on the Lakers' side, if the trade is reciprocal, getting Kidd will not be obvious to the team's strength except for them to give Kobe Bryant an explanation.

Two enemies, one wants to compete with himself for the championship, and the other is an old rival who has been playing in the first round since he blew himself up, who do you trade with? It's self-explanatory.

Just when Kidd and Kobe didn't know where their future was heading, the Lakers and Spurs came to an agreement.

The Lakers sent Caron Bardet and Vladimir Radmanovic in exchange for Jason Kidd from the Spurs.

The world seemed to be cleared up all at once.

Kidd fled the Holy City, and Bryant got out of the one-man show and ushered in a Hall of Fame point guard who could pass the ball, defend well, and never steal the right hand from him.

But Yu Fei didn't waste a second rejoicing for his idol, and even felt that from the perspective of fit, the Spurs only needed to sign a reliable point guard now to return to the top. Unless Caron Butler doesn't get along with Popovich

Wait, the crux of the matter is, will Kidd, the main point guard coach who has seen a strong point guard, also have an unpleasant fall out with Phil Jackson?

Could this be a deal to bury both teams?

However, although Yu Fei was in Las Vegas, he was not idle, and after training, he called veterans of the free market everywhere and invited them to play in Seattle.

Although Yu Fei's fame makes many people jealous, the achievement of four championships in five years is indeed very attractive.

James Posey, who has repeatedly been ruined by Yu Fei and has lost his championship dreams, originally planned to sign with Celtic at a discount.

Posey's original plan was to go to Milwaukee to join Yu Fei.

If you can't beat it, join in, who doesn't like such a difficult road?

As a result, Da Fei actually went to Seattle, which made Percy patiently wait for the situation to change until the Celtics formed the Big Three, and he was ready to leave, but a phone call from Yu Fei saved his mind.

Posey doesn't believe the SuperSonics can win the championship next season, but he believes Dafei can lead the SuperSonics to the championship in three years, just as he did with the Bucks.

Even though the Celtic trailer seemed to be more likely to achieve its goal, Posey was still moved by the prospect that Yu Fei had sketched on the phone.

"Boston may be able to help you win the championship, but you don't have anything left but the championship, and in Seattle, our goal is to save this team. If we win, I promise you that 3 million Seattleites will carry your name and mine to their graves, and their children and grandchildren will sing our stories for generations to come. ”

The prospect of saving the supersonics, the peace of mind brought by Dafei's resume, and Posey's personal experience of learning too much of Fei's strength made Posey give up the idea of riding a Boston trailer and sign SuperSonics on a three-year, $15 million mid-class contract.

In terms of ability alone, Posey is not as good as Yu Fei, Roy and Lewis, and he may not even be the No. 4 player on the team, but his arrival makes up for the biggest gap in the SuperSonics' existing roster on the books - the lack of defensive intensity on the wings.

We all know that Da Fei is an elite defender as long as he is willing to defend, but Da Fei will eventually have to put a lot of energy into the offense, and the superSonics will need someone like Posey to share the defensive pressure for most of the season.

The SuperSonics looked like a somewhat offensive and defensive lineup that made sense with Posey's arrival.

After recruiting Posey, Yu Fei also tried to recruit Grant Hill, but Hill had already promised Phoenix.

Yu Fei expressed regret about this, and then went to recruit the next person.

At the same time, Lao K confirmed the squad of the American team to compete in the Olympic qualifiers in the Americas.

LeBron James' exit has caused a lot of controversy, but by and large, there isn't much suspense about the people on the list.

The only surprise was that Kwame Brown squeezed out Tyson Chandler to shoulder the U.S. box alongside Dwight Howard.

Some media with ulterior motives want to know how much Yu Fei contributed to Brown's selection for the Dream Team.

Yu Fei asked coldly: "What, do you have any questions about Kwamei's selection?" ”

"I mean, there are a couple of other candidates who look good as well, and Kwame doesn't have a clear advantage."

"Really?" Yu Fei asked, "Then tell me, apart from Dwight, there are a few American centers under the age of 30 who look better than Kwame, and who of them has a better resume than Kwamay?" ”

The translation of Da Fei's sentence is: You say they are stronger, so how many championships do they have?

It's vexatious to ruffle the championship at every turn, but when it comes to such comparisons, a resume can always be decisive.

On the day of the expedition, Lao K officially announced that Yu Fei would become the captain of the new dream team. This is the result of more than half a month of competition. At first, Bryant tried, but then, he gave up because he didn't want to do it in the first place. Kobe Bryant is not fighting, and others are even less qualified to compete with Yu Fei.

After a period of time, Yu Fei established his leadership of the American team, and Lao K also helped the flow, allowing Yu Fei to wear the captain's armband of the American team.

At the departure ceremony, the reporter asked Yu Fei how he became Captain America.

Yu Fei replied: "Obviously, you only need to look at us, you can clearly see that I am more handsome than everyone else, these people don't look like leaders, they stand next to me like bodyguards, I think that's why Coach K asked me to be the captain." ”

"your big fly!" Bryant complained, "I'd rather you say, 'I'm the captain because I have four rings.'"

The world of basketball is changing dramatically, the anti-heroic Yu Fei is becoming a real hero, he is the Jordan terminator, the O'Neal killer, the founder of the Bucks dynasty, and the destroyer of professional basketball, the creator of the short contract, and now, his new identity is the captain of the redemption team, saving the supersonic man, of course, you can point directly.

Let's call him the Savior.
