The Clippers lost, and the record is still tied with the Mavericks in the league. The losing streak is not a big news. The Clippers are rebuilding the team. If they are forced to lose, they are really a hell.
On the 15th, there were two big news in the NBA.
First of all, what makes Chinese fans feel worried is that Yao Ming was injured. His left foot fracture will undergo surgery and will be absent for six months.
After joining the Nets, Yao Ming's average playing time increased to 36.3 minutes per game, and the number of singles also increased. He averaged 21.5 points, 10.2 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 2 blocks per game, but he laid a hidden danger for injuries.
According to Yang Rui's requirements, Yao Ming kept his weight at about 120 kg. The height of 226CM was the same as that of Little Jordan and Howard, which greatly reduced the burden. However, his left foot always had hidden injuries and he had to control his playing time.
In 1997, one year after Yao Ming entered the Shanghai Youth Team, he injured his left foot twice during training and competition, causing a fracture of his phalanges. Perhaps it was these two serious injuries during the developmental period that planted the root of Yao Ming's left foot.
While in the Lakers, teammates can take on the offensive task of holding the ball, quickly counterattack with positional battle, Yao Ming is a lot easier. Now the Nets are almost full of positional battles, with Yao as the core offense.
The Nets' current coach is Avery Johnson, and he knows to let the star singles. The Nets signed a short contract with him. If it is not for the right person to succeed, the boss now wants him to get out.
After Yao Ming was injured, the Nets' task this season turned into a mess, trying to pick another high rookie.
On this day, the Lakers announced a big deal.
After Evans proposed the idea of leaving at the end of last month, manager Kupchak immediately convened a meeting of management personnel and proposed to adjust the lineup, otherwise the Lakers may not even play in the playoffs this season, how to compete with the Clippers for Los Angeles market?
After the discussion, the Lakers had two trading goals, Paul Gasol and Steve Nash.
Both of these people changed their lives because of the butterfly effect brought by Yang Rui.
Gasol has stayed in the Grizzlies, has reached the Western Conference finals at most, was selected for several All-Stars, but has not won the championship. The Grizzlies are also preparing to rebuild, and sending him and Battier to be better off. Last time I played the Lakers Grizzlies, I didn't want to win at all, but there was Big Gasol, who blew the Lakers inside and won by accident.
The problem is that the Grizzlies want to exchange big Gasol for the inside, or pack Byron Davis for the transaction. The Lakers don't want to send the inside, and they don't want to accept Davis' bad contract.
Nash has won several assists, and has not won the regular season MVP. It is far less beautiful than Yang Rui's previous MVP, and the sun is also ready to rebuild.
The historical deviation stems from the sun digging O'Neal. When O'Neal left, his strength fell sharply. He didn't change back to any players, but only vacated the salary space. Stardamer joined New York without Sun and Nash.
Without super scorer, Nash could not lead the team to win. In Yang Rui’s previous life, after Stoudemire left the Sun, Nash did not make the playoffs for two consecutive seasons.
The Suns are worse now, and they haven't made the playoffs since trading O'Neal. Now inside is just Channing Frye who can make a three-pointer and Robin Lopez, the "mascot terminator".
After two weeks of negotiations, the Lakers and Sun had a deal.
The Suns got Tyreke Evans and Joe Smith, the 2011 Lakers first-round draft pick, and two second-round draft picks; the Lakers came back with a small price and got Nash.
In the summer of 2012, Nash will be a completely free agent and the Sun has no confidence in leaving him, so he is eager to trade.
Nash is not young, and he wants to fight for the championship ring at the end of his career. He has not many choices. The Clippers already have Paul. The Cavaliers have the Big Three. It is impossible for him to have his position. His relationship with the Mavericks boss Cuban is bad. He may be replaced again. The Spurs have Tony Parker, who is also a star point guard.
After discussing with the agent, the only strong team Nash is likely to join is the Lakers, so he will not regret it.
After the deal was announced, Bryant was very happy and said in an interview: "This is a way for the league to evolve. To make the team competitive, you must get at least three powerful guys."
"In a sense, we have been together, but unfortunately, we have always been opponents and represent the interests of different teams. As long as he is on the field, every teammate on the field becomes easy, he is that kind of player. Can make you exceptionally good."
Kobe gave Nash a very high rating. "He is not simply playing on the court. He is a very good passer. I dare to pack tickets. There is no such second person in the league. I can easily move without the ball. I believe he will make the most correct move. Choice, it all becomes very simple, instead of opening the defensive button with my own offense."
Kobe said he was willing to play without the ball, but he didn't know if he could do it. What he was good at before was to keep his teammates without the ball...
The media and fans began to be optimistic about the Lakers again, thinking that after Nash joined, the Lakers have formed a new "F4", not inferior to the Clippers' four-person combination, and the core position of the two teams is similar, just right.
Compared with his personal ability, Nash is less than Paul; Roal Deng has a comprehensive performance last season, with an offensive and defensive balance, better than Curry; Love is not as athletic as Griffin, has a longer range and can open up space, slightly inferior; also good at singles, Compared with Bryant and Guy, everyone feels that Kobe is far superior to Guy.
On the 16th, the media began to hype the Christmas War, the league arranged the Clippers away VS Lakers.
This is the first match between the two sides this season, David Stern deliberately arranged, he wants to keep the gimmick until the most suitable time, fans will be more interested ~EbookFREE.me~ This night, the Clippers 101-95 away to beat the Pacers.
The Pacers are very similar to the team in Yang Rui’s previous life. Although Brad Miller and Michael Reed joined the team and changed the lineup, the Pacers walked on the old road of reconstruction after the two left. , And put together a lineup of Roy Hibbert, Danny Granger, Paul George, Dengtai Jones, McRoberts and others.
Steve Blake, who should have joined the Lakers, chose the Pacers because the Lakers signed Fisher and became a starter in the team, making this team's strength slightly improved.
The Pacers returned to the playoffs and caused a lot of trouble for the Clippers, but the reporters were not interested in talking about their topics at all. They talked about the Lakers during an interview with Yang Rui.
"Do you think Nash's joining the Lakers will have any impact on the Lakers? Can they pose a threat to the Clippers?"
Yang Rui thought about it and replied: "I don't think Nash's joining the Lakers will make the team stronger. What the Lakers need most now is to strengthen the inside defense, not the outside attack. And the strongest point guard to the Lakers, the general positioning is fixed. Pitcher, Paul is no exception, this deal, I think the team that earned is the Suns."
The reporter asked: "Why?"
"Sun backup point guard Dragic is an underestimated player. After Nash leaves, he can get more ball rights. I'm optimistic that he plays star data. Moreover, Dragic and Evans are very suitable partners, Evans. You can play in position 2. Of course, whether solar power will rise depends on the trading and drafts of the next two seasons."
The reporter asked: "Are you saying that Kobe will make the point guard worse?"
"I didn't say that, but Nash's future pressure is not small. Once the Lakers lose, there will be many fans who say he failed to give Kobe Bryant enough support, failed to average ten rebounds per game, and wish him good luck."
