"Hey, why don't you talk?"
From the moment he arrived at the restaurant, Wu noticed Howard's listless appearance, and of course he knew about the recent situation of the Orlando Magic, whose two consecutive losses have left the Magic at the bottom of the Eastern Conference standings.
However, Wu Dawei didn't feel anything about it, after all, this was not his team. The recent situation of the Cleveland Cavaliers' current two-game winning streak has made Wu Dawei happy.
Howard is depressed, of course, because of the team's current two-game losing streak. And in the third game, he had to play against the Cleveland Cavaliers, who had been in the limelight since the start of the game, and Howard had no bottom in his heart.
His teammates are not in good shape in these two games, otherwise they would not have won double 20 in both games, and it would be difficult for the team to find a win.
"Alas......" Howard sighed, glanced at Wu Dawei's smiling expression, stretched out his middle finger and said, "Damn!" Then he looked at Wu Dawei with disdain.
"Are you confident in tomorrow's game? Man, I'm ready to beat you all to the ground! ”
Wu Dawei didn't open which pot, Howard's expression was even more ugly, his middle finger turned into a little thumb, and then he lowered his head to eat.
Although during the meal, Wu Dawei teased Dwight from time to time with the team's record. Howard, but the atmosphere of the reunion between the two after a long absence is relatively harmonious.
Of course, Wu Dawei will not provoke Dwight too much. Howard, it's not good to annoy people, after all, he still wants to recruit the other party.
He knew Dwight. Howard has long been dissatisfied with the Orlando Magic, which can be seen from the time he practiced and chatted with Howard this summer. It's just that Dwight. Howard's heart still yearns for the big city, and the minimum standard for him to leave the Orlando Magic, which is also the team that wants to be the favorite to win the championship.
The Cleveland Cavaliers absolutely do not meet the first rule, so they can only start with the second one. Although Wu Dawei is aware of Dwight. Howard admires himself. But he couldn't just appreciate himself. left the team where he had stayed for so many years to shoot alone. The Cavaliers are not in a big city. Then naturally, he can only come up with the corresponding strength to impress Dwight. Howard.
That's what Wu had in mind, and the Cavaliers have had a good run of momentum since the start of the season, with two straight wins putting them in the top spot in the Eastern Conference with the Chicago Bulls and Miami Heat.
That's the Cleveland Cavaliers' current strength, but it's not time yet. A really strong team takes time to test. Now that the league has just begun, the Cavaliers are looking to impress Dwight. Howard, it's going to take some time.
But in Orlando, many people know Dwight. Howard is frustrated with the Orlando Magic. And the rumors before the start of the season that the Cavaliers asked the Magic about Howard's offer also made Orlando fans panic.
When the Cavaliers came to Orlando, David Wu met with Dwight before the game began. Howard met and had a meal, and was also followed and reported by the paparazzi. Wu Dawei didn't know that Orlando was already so turbulent before, he just knew that Howard was dissatisfied with the Magic team, but he didn't expect that there would be such a stir in Orlando.
It's just that before the game started, he met with Howard's old friends and had a meal, and he was able to make a big fuss about Orlan Multimedia.
And the funniest thing is that most of the media in Orlando is bashing Dwight. Howard, saying he was hell-bent on being a traitor. There are even some Orlando media who mock Dwight. Howard also mocked LeBron last season. James. This season, I want to go.
Perhaps such a move is nothing more than a radical tactic in the eyes of these media. However, Wu Dawei didn't see it that way, he tried to ask himself what choice he would make if the Cleveland media treated him like this, and it would be the best case not to take the initiative to apply to leave the team. And the Orlando media didn't do it before. When O'Neal was still on the Magic, the Orlando media began to fan the flames.
It's not the first time they've done this kind of delay.
However, such a thing happened at this meal, which made Wu Dawei even happier. The more dissatisfied Howard was with Orlando, the more he wanted to leave. And he doesn't have many teams to choose from right now, and he has to have enough salary space to make up for it, as well as enough chips to exchange for Howard, and at the same time maintain the strength to win the championship after the trade, the Cleveland Cavaliers almost fully meet Howard's current requirements in addition to not being in a big city.
So, since there's a bunch of idiots like Orlando's media to help,
The Cleveland Cavaliers want to acquire Dwight. Howard's heart, the most important thing right now is to keep them competitive in the league.
Naturally, this regular season game on December 29 is a must-win game for the Cleveland Cavaliers. And the Cavaliers also have plenty of confidence in this game.
As a team with two consecutive wins, how can they be afraid of a team that has lost two in a row?
Orlan's multimedia blind actions helped the Cavaliers for a while. Although there are still quite a few people in the league who know about Dwight. Howard, who was unhappy with the Orlando Magic, actually began to contact the Orlando Magic and asked Dwight about it. Howard's offer is currently only one from the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Recently, there have also been rumors that the Los Angeles Lakers have also begun to expect to get "Warcraft", but there is still no movement for the time being.
The Cavaliers have nothing to worry about this game, and although the Magic brought back Turk Turk Turkoglu, who was the hero of their 2009 Finals appearance, this season, they also put the team's singles strength behind Howard. Carter was cleared out of the team.
Such a team with outstanding internal strength and only projecting on the outside basically does not have much individual singles ability, in fact, it is not weak. After all, Dwight. Howard is currently the league's leading center player, and there is basically no one else in the league who can match him on the inside.
And on the outside, the Magic has a lot of three-point shooters. They could have relied on Dwight. Howard's inside containment allowed the Magic's perimeter three-point shooter to create countless shooting opportunities, just like the Cleveland Cavaliers did against the Miami Heat last season.
But the head coach of the Orlando Magic, Stan. Van Gundy is a pampered "godchild" Jamal. Nelson, with Dwight. Howard had a bad relationship with the contest. Although his core tactics are also to make Dwight. Howard pins down on the inside and then lets the outside shooters look for opportunities to shoot.
But his offensive pick is completely different from last season's Cavaliers, who were the first offensive pick on the offensive end in the first round of the playoffs last season. Kaman. It was Kaman who opened the door first, pinned down the Miami Heat's defense on the inside, forced them to shrink the defense, and then let the outside shooters look for opportunities to shoot the cold arrow.
The Magic's No. 1 offensive pick on the offensive end is their point guard, a short Jamal who doesn't have a lot of offensive efficiency. Nelson. Jamal. Nelson has the quality of a starting point guard, but he's not good enough. Van Gundy had already made countless mistakes with Nielsen before that. The heaviest one was in the 2009 finals, when Jamal Jamal had just returned from injury. Nelson, who replaced Alston, the "street ball king" who played extremely well in the previous playoffs, served as the starting point guard in the Finals.
This move was criticized by countless people at the time. Van Gundy was unrepentant. To this day, Nelson, as an inefficient short guard, still has the highest number of shots per game by the Magic, and Dwight, the league's top player. Howard, however, often has an embarrassing situation of taking fewer than ten shots in a game......
This is also caused by Dwight. Howard & Stan. One of the reasons why Van Gundy has a gap in his heart, and now that the Magic team is facing two consecutive defeats, such a contradiction is likely to erupt at any time under the continuous accumulation of time. It's no wonder that Orlando fans feel like they're in danger.
However, no matter how volatile the current ball market in Orlando, before the start of this game, the Amway Center Arena, the home of the Orlando Magic, still had 10 fans that night. And among the fans, dressed in Dwight. The number of fans of Howard's jersey is still the highest, but it's a pity that their team's head coach Stan Brown. Van Gundy never seemed to realize this.
No wonder in 2006, Pat. Riley will decisively fire this fat midway through the season.
Wu Dawei is still the team's leading starter in this game, and there is no change in other positions. Although this year's team champion show Carey. Irving has been a great performer in his last two games, averaging 22 minutes per game in both games, contributing 11 points and five assists to the team, but apparently head coach Byron has been able to contribute 11 points and five assists. Scott apparently doesn't have such an idea yet.
The starting lineup on Orlando's side has some changes from last season. After all, they still made some personnel changes in the offseason. The center forward is still Dwight. Howard, the two forwards are Seaton. Turkoglu with Fat Glenn, who transferred from the Green Shirts. Davis, the two defenders are still the head coach's "godboy" Jamal. Nelson and the former slam dunk king Jason. Richardson.
