Chapter 479: Top seed!

No, to be precise, what is expected is next season.
One big difference from history is that the Eastern Conference, which should have been weak, will become an unprecedented "hell" next season.
The original "Eastern f4" Wizards, Pistons, Nets, and Magic are still strong, and the Bulls have been greatly strengthened.
These five teams will kill everyone in the East.
And the team that cannot be ignored is the Raptors.
In a draft deal, the Raptors brought Byron Davis back.
Bosh, like the other 03 generations, has grown "fat" over the years.
The Raptors also traded Tj Ford from Houston, signed Sun Hao’s former teammate from La Liga, Gabajoza, one of the Tridents of Real Madrid, and a former NBA player who played in Europe. The names are pretty awesome. Forced Anthony Parker.
These operations of the Raptors management is obviously ready to make the playoffs.
In fact, this year in history, the Raptors without Byron Davis finally ranked third in the Eastern Conference.
Although the strength of the Eastern Conference is much stronger than in history, the Raptors also have more Davis.
Of course, there is still a team with many uncertainties, but it still cannot be ignored.
Celtics!
Pierce Garre Allen, the twin stars guaranteed the team's lower limit.
It must be mentioned here that Ray Allen, who averaged 251 points per game last season, is still the hottest shooting guard in the league.
In other words, he is still at the top.
This point is different from history.
Then, it was Garnett.
The current trend of the league is dual core inside and outside, if the Celtics can trade Garnett over the rest of the offseason or even during the season.
Then they will form an unprecedented and unique Big Three that only Sun Hao knows about!
Even if they can't trade, after Gasol is gone, the team's Al Jefferson will play out like in history.
Such a lineup can still earn a place in the playoffs for itself in the East.
Add the stable lineup and the strong Heat team.
Yes, the top eight in the East will be booked directly next season.
For the remaining seven teams in the East to make the playoffs, it is as difficult as hell.
This is the case in the east, and the west is not too much.
The "Big Four" the Lakers, Lone Rangers, Suns, and Spurs couldn't move.
If it were not for the competition system, these four teams would basically lock in the upper half.
Then there are the Nuggets who traded for Iverson, and the Clippers who are still ready to trade for Gasol.
These six teams are also properly locked in the playoffs.
Of course, the West also has a team that cannot be ignored: the Hornets.
Although Paul did not become the "Queen Bee" again, Deron's "Queen Bee" is not bad.
The east is hell, and the west is the abyss. If you want to get out of it, there is bound to be a fierce battle.
Next season, it is worth looking forward to!
Sun Hao habitually took out his mobile phone to scan the news after he finished training that day.
As he was doing it, he suddenly saw a very "tasteful" video.
Brother eating appeared!
He posted a video avi of upside down eating on Facebook!
Not eating made of chocolate, but real shit!
Handstand, one hand, spoon, picture...
Sun Hao's feeling after reading this is that this guy is really a cruel person!
Just don't know why, Sun Hao always felt the smell of all around after reading it.
Fortunately, his feeling was quickly interrupted by a caller ID.
The call came from Kupchak.
The Lakers are already in talks with the Magic.
The subject of the transaction is Finley for Hill, which Sun Hao mentioned before.
Moreover, the interest in magic is very big!
From the point of view of magic, this Wannian Injury has finally been picked up, how can it not make people happy!
And they have been ready to change the air a long time ago, and now they are replaced by a player who has a bad contract but still has immediate strength. They are too happy to be happy!
As for Finley's big contract, Magic is fully capable of digesting it.
This is related to the salary structure of the Magic.
Apart from Hill, only Arenas is the only player with an annual salary of over 10 million.
And Arenas was dug over by the poison contract, and his salary this season and next season will be about 11 million!
Of course, the most important thing is that Howard is still on a rookie contract. He started the big contract until the 08-09 season, when the Finley contract had already ended.
So if this deal is reached, not only will it not lose to the Magic, but it will also greatly increase the stability of their title race next season.
Why not do it?
Some people may say that the Magic can just wait for Hill's contract to expire.
Just don't say 16 million yuan as 1600 yuan, and don't say a year's time as one day.
The Magic had a good record last season, but they have already experienced the pain of Hill’s season reimbursement.
One year of hard work was finally swept away, this kind of pain they will not want to experience a second time.
So when the Lakers asked for additional heads, they readily agreed.
Kupchak called at this time to ask Sun Hao who he wanted.
A smile of joy appeared at the corner of Sun Hao's mouth.
finally come!
He quickly said the additional name he wanted.
Excellent rebounding and defense, excellent pick-and-rolls and moving speed, both a hand-to-hand shooting ability, 2.11 meters center, people give the nickname "Polish Hammer", so is Maxine Gortat!
Gortat was the second-round pick in 2005, but has been restocked by the Magic in Europe.
He did not meet the requirements of the NBA at the time, and the Lakers didn't make much sense in choosing him.
But this time is not the other time. Now Gortat is playing well in Europe, and the Lakers can make him a steady profit.
In history, the label of Gortat's early career was Howard's best substitute, and then went to the Wizards as a starting center, that is, both combat power and potential.
And Mourning will always be old. Even if Gortat can't come this season, it is perfectly fine to take Mourning's class next season.
At least for a long time in the future, O'Neal's substitute problem will be solved.
The Lakers moved fast enough, and just after Sun Hao hung up, they announced the deal on the official website.
The Lakers sent Finley to get Grant Hill and Marcin Gortat from the Magic.
After the deal was concluded, it caused a lot of heated discussions among fans in the forum.
"If you don't get injured, you can become the next Jordan. I play now just to catch up with who I was! Grant Dashan Hill!"
"That's Grant Hill! Overwhelming Jordan's existence!"
"Only when you have seen Hill play during the Pistons do you know how awesome he is! It was he who made people start discussions about Jordan's successor!"
"The key is not only to get Hill, but also to dispose of Finley's junk contract! I can only shout: Kupchak is awesome!"
"Hill recovered last season, averaging 155! 518 field goal percentage! The Magic can have last season's record, he played a big role!"
"Hill has always been strong! As long as he is not injured, he is an All-Star!"
"The question is will he be healthy? If he is healthy, the Magic won't trade him like this!"
"This is a time bomb! Hill really played well last season, but he couldn't make it to the playoffs!"
"This is a gamble!"
"We only sent Finley! I am not targeting Finley. He has done a lot for the team in the past, but his contract is really rubbish!"
"Los Angeles is one of the best medical cities in the United States! And the Lakers are a veteran team, and the management and team doctors are very professional!"
"I look forward to it! The first successor to Jordan, and the first successor to Jordan, the picture is too beautiful to watch!"
"If Hill is not injured, the Lakers will make a lot of money. They have been missing a second point of organization!"
"That's right, and Hill shoots the ball accurately, so that his opponent won't dare to double-double his grandson! This is definitely an underrated deal!"
"Who is Gortat?"
"Who knows, this kind of addition is useless, and I will be cut when it is estimated."
"It seems to be a European player? Will it have something to do with Sun?"
"Sun, Ariza, Hill, Walker, O'Neal, go! go! Lakers dynasty!"
...
The deal itself is not big, but the response is far greater than intended.
It is also easy to understand that Hill is also a brilliant player after all.
Some people may not know how popular Hill was when he entered the league.
At the time when Jordan retired, Hill entered the league in his rookie season and played a brilliant season, averaging 199 points, 64 rebounds, 5 assists, 177 steals per game!
But in 1994, the gold content of this data close to 2055 is very high.
And his style of play itself is also very gorgeous, which made him beat O'Neal in his rookie season to become the All-Star vote!
Many people may have no idea about this ticket king.
It is the only one of the four major sports leagues in North American history to be the rookie All-Star ticket king!
And the second year, after Jordan returned, he overpowered Jordan to win the All-Star vote again!
Just by looking at these, you know how popular Hill was.
Just like the current Tracy, Iverson, and the future Ross, when they are no longer super giants, their every move will still attract attention.
After the Lakers and Magic deal was completed, the lively free market for nearly a month finally calmed down.
Of course, the offseason of the NBA is very long, maybe one day before the start of the season, there will be a big deal.
And this year's basketball fans will not be bored, because the World Championships are coming soon!
In the last World Championships, including the last Olympic Games, fiba used the scoring method to get good reviews. This time before the start of the World Championships, they did the same.
Some things you need to know about this World Championship.
The US team claimed to have sent their strongest lineup, but in fact many players declined the request.
Take Kobe, for example. Kobe has to heal his wounds in publicity, but Sun Hao knows that Kobe’s character will definitely torture himself this summer after being hacked.
Another example is Iverson and Duncan, who came back after their defeat in the 2004 Olympics and were sprayed all over by fans, and they were naturally unwilling to play for their country.
But this is the case, this year's Dream Seven team, which has a low historical presence, still has a strong lineup on paper.
James, Anthony, Wade, Bosh, the four strongest kings of the 03 generation are all on the list.
In addition, they also have "Warcraft" Howard, one of the most popular protagonists this summer, Brand, a new generation of "Eagle King" Joe Johnson, and "Little Brother" Paul.
Even in response to the previous inaccuracy of the US team's outside shooting, they also brought pitchers Battier and Hinrich, and even the inside line has Brad Miller who can shoot three points.
In terms of lineup alone, this team is very strong.
In this context, fiba gave their team ratings for this World Championship.
In the first place, the "seed player" is...the Chinese team!
That's right, even if the American team sent their strongest lineup, the Chinese team still ranks first in the ratings given by fiba this time.
Seed players!
The Qing Dynasty has become history, and a new era has arrived!
First, the Chinese team (91 points!)
The 12-man squad for the Chinese team (with a score, for the fiba competition):
Defenders: Sun Hao (96), Liu Wei (72), Sun Yue (69), Zhang Qingpeng (66)
Strikes: Zhu Fangyu (78), Li Nan (74), Wang Shipeng (73), Du Feng (72)
Insiders: Yao Ming (93), Yi Jianlian (85), Wang Zhizhi (79), Battelle (74)
Fiba comment: Sun Hao, Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian are already all-star players, plus they have an excellent outside shooter group headed by Zhu Fangyu, the runner-up of the previous World Championships, and the champion of the previous Olympics. It shows that the strength of this team is not wise to underestimate them as before.
Second, the US team (90 points)
The 12-man squad for the US team:
Defenders: Wade (88), Joe Johnson (81), Hinrich (81), Paul (78)
Forwards: Anthony (91), James (90), Antoine Jamison (84), Shane Battier (81)
Inside: Brand (91), Howard (89), Bosh (86), Brad Miller (80)
Fiba comment: The overall strength of the US team is still the strongest in this tournament, but the lack of good enough shooters is still their biggest problem, and this US team has another big problem: game experience, which may make They are at a disadvantage against old opponents like China and Argentina.
Third, the Argentina team (88 points)
For the Argentine team, the highest-rated Ginobili was still at 89.
Fourth, the Spanish team (86 points)
This is the first time that the Spanish team has come to such a high ranking position~EbookFREE.me~Grand Pau Gasol, Calderon and others will play in the NBA. Gabajoza will also land on the Raptors next season, plus Navarro and others who performed brilliantly in the European home court.
Just like Sun Hao has experienced, the youth training of Spanish basketball has begun to explode after so many years of precipitation.
And it’s worth mentioning that Gasol, who Sun Hao hasn’t seen for a long time, was also selected into the Spanish national team squad this time!
The big meaty boy, after so many years, finally grew up to be a meaty boy!
...
The Chinese team set off to Japan, the host of the World Championships.
Before the departure, as the team leader, Li Yuanwei was also very proud and said to the players with confidence:
"This time, play the World Championships as the Asian Championships!"
