Chapter 925 [New Lineup, Excellent Blue Collar]

As soon as the news of O'Neal's arrival was announced, online fans applauded. It doesn't matter how strong or weak he is, as long as he teams up with Guo Xu, it will be full of highlights, and the sidelines will be very lively in the new season.

The Suns' third signing is a five-year, 20 million contract extension for power forward Haslem.

This offer is acceptable to both parties, Haslem has the quality and works well with his teammates, but his stats last season were not pretty, and his playing time was short, so he signed this kind of contract at the highest.

The Suns' fourth pick was quite controversial, with Bryan giving up Maddy, who wanted to hug his legs, and signing Guo Xu's college teammate Morris Peterson with a base salary. Looking at last season's stats, the two are not at the same level at all.

Maddy played in 38 games last season, averaging 13.2 points, 4 rebounds and 4.3 assists in 30.6 minutes per game, but shooting just 38.7 percent from the field.

Peterson got a full mid-level contract, peaking with 16.8 points, 4.6 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.3 steals, and avoided the embarrassment of being cut by Kobe Bryant for 81 points at the Raptors' home court. But he didn't have any personal accolades, and he made the playoffs three times and was a round-round tour.

He played for both the Raptors and Bobcats, averaging 4.4 points, 2 rebounds and 0.4 assists per game last season, with the only advantage being a 38.8% three-point shooting percentage. His offensive ability with the ball has completely deteriorated, and the only way to score is to catch the ball, and his three-point shooting rate is relatively stable, between 35% and 40% every season, but never reaches 40%.

Peterson is content to win a championship ring before he retires, and next season is his best chance. Of course, he is not completely useless, he works the defensive end, does not possess the ball on the offensive end, and in case the team is troubled by injuries, he can go up and play a dozen.

Maddie was willing to join the Suns with a base salary of 1 million veterans, but Bryan still refused.

The Suns are star-studded, and there is no need to rely on Maddie to increase popularity, and he may not be willing to be a marginal person, and when the time comes, he will express his dissatisfaction with sleepy eyes, and a group of fans will say that the Suns have abolished their once invincible idols, and the gains outweigh the losses.

As for the performance on the court, the Suns have no shortage of Maddy's dry shots, so they need a substitute who is willing to defend seriously.

The Suns also renewed the contract of Gerald Green, nicknamed "Wheat Dee", for 2 years and 3 million.

The nine-finger dunk king wanted to get a big contract, but he entered the free market but no one cared about it. He doesn't have a high ball quotient, he only fights randomly, and he has no ball to play before joining the Suns. Green was a marginal bench for the Suns last season, averaging just 1.8 points in 4.3 minutes per game in the playoffs.

Green's choice is quite correct, since he can't get a big contract by joining other teams, it is better to stay in the Suns, at least play more comfortably in the running system.

In the Salt Lake City Summer League, Jeremy Lin and Hassan Whiteside played very well, and Bryan kept them both.

Hassan signed a four-year contract by first-round rookie standards, while Jeremy Lin signed a 1+1 contract with a second-year team option.

Both of them like to play blocking and dismantling offense, Jeremy Lin is good at breaking through with the ball, Hassan is fast and good at cutting and catching the ball, and can also rush to the front court to rebound.

Steve Kerr led the team to five Summer League games as a coach, and Jeremy Lin played an average of 23.5 minutes per game, contributing 12.7 points, 3.7 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 1.4 steals, shooting 54.4% from the field and 46.7% from three-point range, but he shot relatively little, averaging only 1 goal per game.

Hassan was even more aggressive, averaging a double-double of 12 points, 15.7 rebounds and 3.7 blocks per game, and he grabbed 23 rebounds and dished out seven blocks in Game 3.

Regardless of the level of the ball quotient, Hassan's physical fitness is enviable, his arm span is the longest among the rookies in the class of 2010, and his fat content is only 5.5 percent, and his athletic talent is amazing. His tall, thin frame keeps him fast and bounce, which is why he often sends blocks inside the Circle.

His weakness is also obvious, he likes to jump too much, he is easily shaken by opponents, and he can't control the number of fouls. In low-level games, he can play well with his body, and he definitely can't get into the NBA.

Even so, Hassan was surprising, because "The Great" Oden did not perform better than him in the summer league that year, and he was the champion, and Hassan almost fell out of the first round.

Bryan drafted experience, and in the future, there will be this kind of physical invincibility, and the inside line of technical garbage fell to a low pick, and he was also selected, and if he was trained, he would be an excellent blue-collar worker.

At the end of July, the Suns' 14-man lineup for the new season was determined, and no big names were signed in the end.

Center forwards: Marc Gasol, Marcin Gortat, Shackel O'Neal.

Power forwards: Udonis Haslem, Serge Ibaka, Hassan Whiteside.

Small forwards: Jason Richardson, Grant Hill, Gerard Green.

Shooting guards: Brandon Roy, Maurice Peterson.

Point guards: Guo Xu, Jeremy Lin, Goran Dragic.

The Suns don't need too many people for the shooting guard position, because except for Guo Xu, the other players on the team are all over 190CM tall, and two heavy point guards can play cameo point guards.

Guo Xu called each of his teammates to chat a few words, telling them the skills and training directions that need to be improved.

For Hassan, who has a problematic mentality, it's an encouragement that makes him more confident. He began to fantasize that he could block and cut in the air like Xiao Si in the new season, and he easily scored after receiving Guo Xu's pass.

Jeremy Lin, who plans to practice more during the holidays, is also very happy, Guo Xu asked him to practice three points, and he worked hard to practice accurately.

At the end of July, the movie "Teddy Bear" started filming.

Jason Statham has finished dubbing Teddy, and the bear animation will lip-sync according to the tone of his speech.

The crew filmed Rosie's scene first, and she didn't have much plot, just a little more foreshadowing than the original. She has a heart-to-heart conversation with Teddy, which makes Teddy change his mind and no longer ruin his friend's relationship.

These scenes were filmed in two and a half days, and no acting skills were required, as long as Rosie could read the lines smoothly. In order to help her play well, Statham also came to partner in the opposite role, and he would be eliminated when the film was released.

Like Guo Xu's plan, Rosie and Statham saw each other as soon as they met and became friends. They are both British, their hometowns are not far away, and Rosie came to the United States at a young age to find a backer.

This is really a fellow seeing a fellow countryman, with tears in his eyes.

After the cameo role, Statham began to drive Rosie to the "Transformers" crew, and often visited the class, and it was natural for them to fall in love.

Daddario also started working, first as the vase heroine in "Teddy Bear", and immediately after filming, he went to shoot "Doomsday Collapse".

After the release of "Avatar", it sparked a 3D craze, and the box office of Chinese films soared, and the box office was guaranteed to make this disaster film. And Dwayne Johnson is cheap, and the actor saves costs.

"Fast Pursuit 2" is also going to start filming, Amber Heard continues to star, this time Guo Xu only made a little suggestion, the script is written by a screenwriter, action scenes are the mainstay, and it is best to have some intrigues.

Guo Xu will compose another theme song for this movie, and he already has an idea.

Megan hasn't been the protagonist for more than a year, and she didn't rush to take over the film, and found that her vision was really incomparable with Guo Xu.

The "Prince of Persia: The Blade of Time", which Guo Xu asked her to push down, was released at the end of May this year, and the box office reputation hit the streets, and Jack Gyllenhaal was miserable. At that time, Meghan quarreled with Guo Xu about this, and now she is very embarrassed.

It is also difficult for Guo Xu to find a movie that competes for the Oscar, not to mention Megan, even Theron doesn't know what film to choose, and it will be difficult for the actress to take on the film as soon as her value increases.

Alan Pegg, who had been nominated for actress before, even had to play the brainless comedy "Superheroes", which also featured Liv Taylor......
