0827: [Stormy New Season]

Summer passes quickly, and autumn arrives quickly. From August to September, from September to October, October to mid-November.

Despite repeated contacts, the two sides were unable to reach an agreement. As a result, the training camps of the teams have not been opened for a long time, and the preseason has disappeared.

Some financially stressed players have already moved to other leagues, such as JR Smith, Wilt Chandler .......

Other superstars such as Kobe Bryant are also making all sorts of overseas news.

Of course, even though the official start of the NBA is far away, ESPN and SLAM Magazine have made their respective player rankings for the new season.

For the first time in the ranking of SLAM magazine, the little duke sat on the throne of the league. Behind him are LeBron James, Dwight Howard, Kevin Durant, Dwyane Wade, Nowitzki, Kobe Bryant, Chris Paul, Derrick Rose, Deron Williams, Blake Griffin .......

However, in the ranking of ESPN. The first place is still LeBron James, the second place is Snoopy, followed by Dwight Howard, Dwyane Wade, Chris Paul, Nowitzki, Kevin Durant, Kobe Bryant, Derrick Rose, Deron Williams, Pau Gasol .......

ESPN's reason for this ranking is not because the Duke turned down an invitation to the ESPY Awards in the summer. Rather, they believe that LeBron James has been training all the long offseason, his size is growing at a visible rate, and all the trainers are saying that his back-to-back singles ability is among the best in the league, and that he can't afford to let Snoopy pull into the paint as casually as he did last season.

For this reason, Olajuwon even said very bluntly: "Right now, LeBron is the best No. 4 position in the league." ”

It's easy to get the impression that Hakim's economic situation is really bad.

He desperately needs current NBA players to come to him for inside work.

Compared to LeBron James, who has devoted himself to individual training throughout the offseason, the Duke looks much less serious. In addition to holding concerts around the world, he has also shot four films.

Yes, because of the NBA shutdown. The Little Duke threw himself into the filming of two more films without making a brand new album. One is a guest appearance in the Paramount production of "The Wolf of Wall Street" starring Leonardo, and the other is "The Amazing Thieves" produced by Summit Entertainment, and he became one of the stars of the film with a salary of 12 million dollars plus a share of the box office.

Of course, it was the Wolf of Wall Street crew that made a bigger noise.

When Hollywood's famous playboys Leonardo, Matthew McConaughey and the world-famous pervert appeared on the same set, it was hard for the entertainment media not to dig up some shocking news.

On the evening of October 20th.

Little Plum throws a big party at Beverly Hills, and he almost runs out of his resources in the modeling industry as a way to show his unreserved friendship with his new friends.

In this pool party that gathered world-renowned young models, the little duke seemed unprecedentedly restrained. Although many girls came over on their own initiative, they were very enthusiastic to say that they could go to the room to tidy up his clothes or body.

For this, the little duke expressed his gratitude.

However, when the party is halfway through.

There was still an accident, Miley Sellers and Aimi Pahild and Taylor Swift came uninvited, and the three of them sprayed around with dry powder fire extinguishers during the party, spraying chickens and dogs in the backyard of Little Plum's house.

Let's be honest.

Leondona was a little unhappy when he was interviewed. "I reminded Snoopy a long time ago that he should distance himself from female stars," he said. None of them are idle! ”

In contrast, Leondona prefers to ride a bike with a variety of different kinds of young models.

Actually, on the second day of the Duchess Girls' big party.

People saw the gadget driving the car and taking the three duchess girls to the beach to play beach volleyball.

And then... The four of them seemed to have disappeared into thin air.

By the time they reappeared in the paparazzi's sight, it was already eight o'clock in the evening, and they dined at the famous glass restaurant, as if to tell the world: they didn't have any private actions, everything was open and transparent!

But the three hours that disappeared and the crazy action at Leondona's party the night before still rings in mind.

Interestingly, though.

The agent of the perverted dog, that is, Miss Daphne, who was identified by Ms. Lan Fei as the little duchess, responded to the sensational news on the Internet: Not the truth!

As for the little duke, there was no response at all.

He was after that day, in addition to shooting every day. It's to soak in the UCLA training hall and practice with Westbrook, Kevin Love, Paul George, and Stephen Curry.

Although everyone is surprised that the color dog can make leaps and bounds while holding concerts, making movies and partying all over the world, and making his center of gravity coordination lower. But in reality, everyone's progress is visible to the naked eye, although it may not be as strong as the perverted dog three hours after the beach disappeared!

Westbrook spent the summer honing his counter-attacking abilities and consulting with the Dukes about grabbing rebounds and launching quick counter-attacks. Clearly, he's determined to become the second triple-double king in ULCA history.

Kevin Love devotes all of his power to weight loss. He believes that the pace of the NBA is getting faster and faster, and he must travel light. Expanding from under the basket to the outside, he practiced second only to Snoopy and Curry in the number of three-pointers he made every day.

As for Paul George, the sophomore forward who made a name for himself in last season's playoffs has focused on improving his ball-handling ability, and he is increasingly dissatisfied with the positioning of a 3-and-D player, although he has no intention of snatching the position of leader from team leader Danny Granger. But Snoopy has been encouraging him to make himself more well-rounded, from a finisher to a creator.

Stephen Curry, as always, ramps up his hand workouts.

Almost all the players in the gym thought he was going to do something great next season, because there was hardly a position in the gym where he couldn't shoot. His feel is unbelievable and desperate, and the pervert dog even said unexpectedly: "If you continue to practice like this, the NBA's offensive mode will be rewritten by you." ”

In fact, James Harden has occasionally come over for training.

However, he spends more time with Kevin Durant.

Because he is also a signed player under Nike, he has been rubbing Durant's training resources all summer, and he also followed Durant to Asia for promotion.

Harden, whose beard is getting longer and longer, is getting weirder and weirder, and in addition to continuing to polish his European step, it is more important to practice his touch-and-porcelain style of play and step-back jumpers.

Very personal touch.

At the same time, it is also very tricky.

Paul George kicked the basketball straight into the stands after being called seven consecutive fouls by him in heads-up. He scolded and scolded, how could he play like this.

James Harden, on the other hand, is quite complacent.

The dog put him in the toilet and demanded that he promise not to use these bad tricks on his brothers before he was released.

However, in the case where Westbrook is the internal response. Harden finally broke out of the door and didn't swear!

Still, he brought news to Westbrook and Snoopy: Kevin Durant has evolved again!

'He's improved on the ball, his breakaway kills are a threat due to his height and pace, and he's also stepped up his passing skills. He is very likely to complete the feat of scoring three times in a row! ”

James Harden was very serious when he said this.

He thinks Kevin Durant will have a breakout in the new season. This outburst may even affect the status of the Lust Dog among the new generation of players. Of course, more importantly... Second brother, the difficulty of trying to usurp the throne has increased again!

Westbrook had become agitated all afternoon.

Non-stop banging and performing dunk stunts.

Although he was silent, everyone could see that he had a Tibetan mastiff in his heart and kept roaring: I am not convinced! I don't care! I'm going against the sky! I'm going against the sky!! I'm going to be the boss!!

All right!!

California basketball big brother finally arrived at UCLA training in mid-November.

The arrival of the Black Mamba almost brought the entire arena to a standstill, and many people may not like this guy, but it must be admitted... Bryant's influence in Southern California is irreplaceable.

Kevin Love, Westbrook, Paul George, and even Thompson and Leonard all grew up watching the Black Mamba.

However, the Black Mamba has clearly not been very happy lately.

He was very unhappy with the rankings given by ESPN and SLAM magazines, and he had already lost his temper on Twitter once, and he angrily typed a line: I am seventh??

Obviously, he is extremely skeptical and rejects the authority of these two lists.

The little duke comforted him again at the training camp, saying that these things did not represent anything. Although he had already spoken to him on the phone before.

But the Black Mamba still looked indignant: "Can you accept LeBron James on top of you?" Now all the media is hyping up his progress in the new season and everyone is ignoring my efforts this summer. And you...... Well, you didn't work hard this offseason. ”

Kobe Bryant thinks Snoopy is focusing too much on concerts, movies, and scandals.

He even went so far as to recount the Little Duke's actions prior to the beach disappearance, including being photographed having dinner with Anne Hathaway and Emma Stone in New York in early October, even though the Amazing Rogue crew claimed at the time that it was just two female celebrities visiting the class. But there was still a lot of turmoil.

And before that, the Little Duke and Emma Watson met again with the Beauty and the Beast crew at the end of September, and the two talked and laughed, leaving the male lead aside.

Before that, it was the national son-in-law incident of East Asia and South Korea, as well as China's new generation of Xiaohua, plus the ...... of the little princess of England.

"Oh my God, are you stats freak going to break records in the offseason?" The Black Mamba looked angry.

It's like a resentful woman who caught her husband cheating.

The little duke felt weird.

Then, in the next three-on-three, he teamed up with Stephen Curry and Paul George to easily defeat Kobe, Westbrook and Kevin Love.

This made Kobe very unconvinced.

On the court, he criticized Westbrook for being too self-willed, and also stressed that Kevin Love should not play too much on the outside.

However, whether it is Young Master Wei or Lefu, they will not change their style of play because of this. Although they all respect Bryant.

These are two different things.

Since the Colored Dogs led the team to defeat the Dallas Mavericks last season, many people have begun to think that the page belonging to the 96 golden generation is about to be turned over. This is probably the reason why the Boston Big Three are out of the top 15 in the league in an all-round way, and the Black Mamba has slipped directly to seventh place as the former first person.

……

When the time came on November 26, the long tug-of-war collective bargaining agreement was finally negotiated. Both sides have compromised, and part of the reason the N.B.A. is willing to accept the 54 percent distribution deal with the players' guild is that Hollywood is touting four movies in one summer, and the little duke, who grosses more than $100 million on a global tour, will most likely not return to the NBA.

Because the ROI of basketball is so poor.

This worried David Stern, who even called Miss Daphne overnight. Daphne's answer was ambiguous: "No, I don't really have much time to worry about this right now." You can call my assistant George Chen, he's in charge of the NBA now!! ”

When Daphne said such a thing, could the management not be vigilant?

Now that the NBA has formed a pattern of two superpowers and many strong with the strong rise of the little duke, its influence is at the time of a significant increase. With ratings skyrocketing, the next TV deal is bound to flip to an astronomical figure. But if the little duke doesn't fight, then ... Not to mention the precipitous decline in influence, the rocket-like growth rate must be stopped.

So, after a long shutdown.

The NBA is back in the open.

Training camps for each team have been opened, and pre-season events have been set up at the same time. At the same time, the 2011-2012 regular season has been adjusted to 66 games with remarkable efficiency, and the regular season opener will officially start at Christmas.

Even so, when the schedule came out, everyone couldn't help but worry about it, it was too close. There are too many back-to-back.

This is undoubtedly a huge physical drain on the players.

The long offseason has left many players with a big belly when they walk into training camp, and they don't look like they're training at all. It's like Zach Randolph, a super dark horse who had an amazing performance in the playoffs last season, and his weight has skyrocketed, if not 300, to 290.

If there is no downtime, I can slowly get back into shape through training camp and pre-season, but now the time is tight and the task is heavy. Now it's purely a duck catch.

Based on this situation, many basketball experts have begun to predict that there is a high probability of large-scale injuries in the new season!!

Of course.

Someone is not ready, someone is completely ready.

It's like the little Duke's hard-working brothers, who have been waiting for the day when the new season arrives for six months, and everyone is holding back the energy to make a name for themselves.

It's like LeBron James and Kevin Durant.

The two men were humiliated directly and indirectly from the Lust Dogs in last season's playoffs.

They have been training 200 per cent positive in the summer and they are all waiting to prove themselves in the new season.

Be sure to give a little color to the perverted dog who is busy with concerts, movies, commercials, and scandals in the offseason!!

That's what they thought when they typed 'I'm here for the 2011-2012 season' on their profile.

But.

Snoopy was very calm. On the afternoon of his arrival in Chicago, he walked into Gary Foreman's office, where he signed his name on a freshly drafted contract: 90 million for five years, plus the right to apply for and veto the deal.

It's almost a completely unequal deal for the Chicago Bulls.

However, there is no trick.

The owners of the other twenty-nine teams in the league are all plotting over there, and what else can Reinsdorf do but scold a few words of motherhood?

He trusts Snoopy, though.

He thinks Snoopy has no chance of leaving the Bulls on his own initiative!!
