After All-Star Weekend, trade became the league's leitmotif.

The most furious thing was the deal about the Rockets trading Maddie.

The Lakers were the first to get involved.

They tried to trade Kidd for Maddie. What's in it for the rocket? Yao Shu will get the best point guard to feed him, but the other party is 36 years old and has only half a season left on his contract, and will almost certainly not renew his contract with the Rockets.

Compared to Maddy, an All-Star wing who has a one-and-a-half-year contract and can contribute an average of 21+5+5 per game, Kidd's greatest value is that he is an expiring contract that can create salary space for the Rockets in the summer of 2009. But the Rockets aren't an attractive team, and salary space won't be of much use to them.

As a result, the Rockets asked to include Andrew Bynum in the deal.

So the Lakers asked to add Yao Shu to the trade. If the Rockets agree, the Lakers could also send their other Jermaine O'Neal, who is set to become a free agent this summer.

In other words, Lake Tube, who thinks of himself as the center of the universe, thinks that the Rockets will tear down the house for Bynum, send Yao Mai, and get the half-season use rights of Kidd and Xiao Ao by the way.

But in the end, Maddie's deal happened.

After the trade, Wade agreed to a four-year, $58 million contract extension with the Heat almost immediately. As you can see from the numbers, Wade has opted for a pay cut at the same time as the contract extension, and by the end of the season, the Heat's contract is about to expire, at which point they will have room to sign a third star on the free market.

Considering that the summer of 2009 is going to be the hottest free agency year of the new century, it's definitely worth the Lakers' go.

The Lakers will have salary space to sign two or three stars.

At this time, the Knicks announced the buyout of Stephen Marbury.

"Thinking beautifully, why do you old Biden exchange my little fresh meat?"

The Rockets signed Marbury in a lightning flash.

Then some media questioned the operation of the rocket.

Riley's Magic Ball plan is being implemented in a big way.

Wade's contract extension leaves one big fish missing from the free agency market this year.

The Lakers wanted to make a fuss about Ao's expiring contract, but in the end, they felt that instead of trading Ao to acquire another star, they would be betting on this summer.

But there are still a number of superstars in the market, but because none of them can get a satisfactory offer, except for Maddie, the second big deal has never appeared.

But to complete the plan, he had to stabilize Wade.

"Yes, but we really can't afford you." Yu Fei jokingly said in the text message, "Your family's gift money is too high." ”

Maddie is the only ball-handler on the Rockets who can be a big core, and he was traded away, who will make the ball for Yao Shu?

"I kind of want to be traded."

This is the first bang before the trade deadline.

Yao Shu replied: "You send Kevin Durant, and I will wear the supersonic jersey tomorrow." ”

When the time comes, Kobe, O's and Kidd will expire at the same time.

Yao Shu said to Fei in a text message.

Wade didn't want to wait for Kevin Love to grow, so in order to speed up Love's evolution and the need to get a second star, Riley put Rashad Lewis in the trade, plus first-round picks in 2009 and 2011, and traded Maddy from the Rockets.

"Book that!"

However, the premise of that decision was to convince Kobe Bryant that they had a lot to do this summer.

No one knows what's going on, and the Lakers, who should have made a big move before the trade deadline, didn't do anything.

Kidd will finish this contract with the Lakers.

The little Olympics will lie down and go into the playoffs.

Bryant's team is second in the West, but it has a mountain over its head that will be difficult to climb.

Not making a deal is tantamount to raising a white flag to the supersonic.

A day later, the trading deadline ended.

Observers in the world of professional basketball were disappointed.

Draft expert Chad Ford angrily said: "There are a number of stars coming to free agency in the summer, and as is customary, they should have been traded before the trade deadline. This will completely change the landscape of the league, however, all we see is that the Rockets send T-MAC away, and this option will only make them mediocre. What a bunch of cowardly, fearful and losers! Clearly, the league is hoping that Frye can win his sixth championship this year. ”

When the brothers of the TNT Tiantuan talked about what would happen if Yu Fei won the sixth crown this year, Barkley slapped the table: "Dude, this will definitely be a war!" I have no doubt at all that the fanatical fans of number 44 will cause bloodshed with the fanatical fans of number 23. ”

Ernie Johnson, the host of the group, asked, "So, how do we define Frye's four years?" I mean, is this a dynasty? ”

Yu Fei's die-hard supporter Brent Barry asked rhetorically: "The real four years and four championships, why is it not a dynasty?" ”

"Man, do you think we should call it the Bucks dynasty or the supersonic dynasty?"

(

Barkley raised the controversial issue in basketball.

The definition of a sports dynasty has always been about the team, not the individual.

Phil Jackson, the creator of two dynasties, defined the NBA's dynasty: a dynasty is one that wins three championships in a row.

Bill Simmons, one of the most influential sports writers of our time, has a dynastic criterion of winning at least five championships in a decade.

The NBA's own definition of a dynasty is one that wins three championships over a period of three years or more and remains competitive for the long term.

These criteria are directed at the team and are the highest praise for a team that has been successful for a long time and has been great for the best.

By the definition of the NBA, the Bucks, who have won four championships in five years, already belong to the dynasty.

According to Bill Simmons' theory, Yu Fei's five championships in six years are also a dynasty.

According to the requirements of the Zen master, three crowns in three years, isn't it a dynasty?

The problem is that Yu Fei has changed teams.

This makes every theory buggy.

People who are keen on dynastic narratives and like to deconstruct dynasties basically agree with the essence of team sports in basketball. A dynasty is not a compliment to a particular person.

The presence of Yu Fei challenges this notion that has been established since the time of Bill Russell.

"There is no Bucks dynasty, and there is no supersonic dynasty." Barry said controversially on TNT, "The last six years have been a dynasty that belongs to Frye alone. ”

Hearing this, Barkley got up from his chair for the sake of the show, kept loosening his tie, and then looked around, looking around, "Where's my baseball bat?" I'm going to hammer this stinky shameless Flying Blow to death".

As a North Carolina alumnus, Kenny Smith of TNT is a potential Jordan supporter, and as a compliment on the show, his main job is to amplify the effect of the show (Barkley), but hearing Barry's words, he couldn't help but say, "I hope Ray Allen, Michael Reed, Kevin Martin, Danny Granger, and Sean Marion don't watch this episode." ”

This is the political incorrectness of the one-man dynasty in the world of sports.

Especially people like Kenny Smith who have won championships in the past believe that their role in the championship team is unique and they would not be able to play without him.

When a brainless flyer like Barry throws out the argument of a one-man dynasty, the first thing to deny is Yu Fei's other teammates.

That's why this matter is so controversial.

Yu Fei's opponents will amplify Yu Fei's teammates, and Yu Fei's supporters are also divided on the conclusion of the one-man dynasty, and people like Barry who follow Yu Fei to win the championship and think that he is useless and rely on Da Fei is a minority.

Controversy and problems are being infinitely magnified as Yu Fei approaches the throne.

All-Star Weekend is over, the NBA is about to turn to its final season, and the basketball world is arguing over the right to define Yu Fei's dynasty after the GOAT debate.

The league is the biggest winner.

Since Donaghi's incident, the NBA hasn't had such a hot spot in the circle without damaging the league's image for a while.

Yu Fei's topic overwhelmed everything, making the layup step count turmoil at the beginning of the season a miscellaneous conversation.

There are still people talking about this, and the forces behind Yu Fei don't want to let James go.

But Nike behind James will not stand still and be beaten either.

Nike chooses to involve every star in an expanded way.

Things were showing signs of subsiding down until the Rockets suffered a defeat in Cleveland, when James made a quasi-kill with a crab step and showed a one-sided pattern in free throws.

Yao Shu left the famous phrase "See you in Houston".

Things started to ferment again.

At this time, the media is vying for the right to define Yu Fei's dynasty, and the league holds an emergency meeting to discuss the issue of layup steps.

One league referee, who asked not to be named, said there have long been two opinions in refereeing circles, with some advocating strict enforcement of the rule's definition of a step that allows a player to take one more step after receiving the ball, while others acquiescing to players taking two steps after receiving the ball.

Stern wants to end that divide, and he recently drafted a new rule that would legitimize the two-step layup after receiving the ball.

2 March 2009

The far-reaching change to the 012 layup rules has been officially introduced.

Stern's goal was to quell the talk about walking, but the new rules led to a variety of future eight-step layups.

This is something that decision-makers cannot see at the moment when the rules are being made.

But they are happy with the status quo.

Although they changed the rules of basketball, which have been established since the birth of basketball, not many media are concerned about the rule change, and even fewer are aware of the impact of the rules. In their opinion, this is a good thing.

From then on, everyone no longer had to stare at James's feet.

As a result, more people joined the battle for the definition of the Yu Fei Dynasty.

And Yu Fei and his supersonic speed are rushing all the way towards the record of 96 bulls under the scrutiny of the outside world in all directions.

PS: I need to take time off work tomorrow to attend my college roommate's wedding. After tomorrow, I'll be the last unmarried person in my college dorm room. That's probably the reason why I've been writing about marriage and gift money so much in the past two days. I was upset and said yes.
