NOVEL NEXT Chapter 407
Chapter 406 The Old And The New Alternate!
The Mavericks re-signed Caron Butler to a two-year, $16 million deal.
Caron Butler, like the original history, missed the playoffs because of regular-season injuries.
But this did not affect the Mavericks to win the championship.
In the original history, because of Carter’s joining, the Mavericks did not renew Caron Butler.
So Caron Butler eventually signed with the Clippers.
But this history Carter didn’t go to the Mavericks.
With Peja retired, the Mavericks have no other options at the 3.
Therefore, Caron Butler was renewed.
“The Mavericks can get a B+ with this deal, and because of injuries, no one knows how Caron Butler will be in the next season.”
“But the second year team option, once Caron Butler is not in good shape, the Mavericks refuse to implement it.”
“As long as Caron Butler has 80% of his prime, the Mavericks will re-sign a prospective All-Star at a low price. 35
After Barbas commented on the extension of the Mavericks, he then began to comment on the next transaction.
“The Heat signed Memet Okur, a former champion center, for a minimum salary.
“This deal is also C-level. After the Achilles tendon rupture, Memet Okur is no longer the champion center of the year!”
“But he has the courage to fight in the low post. If he is a meat shield center, he can defend against Yao for 10 to 15 minutes. 99
“This signing can’t be called bad, but I’m not optimistic about the state of 973 in Memet Okur next season. 35
The two major centers, Sharks and Big Z, signed by the Heat last season, all chose to retire in the offseason.
For the whole season, the performance of the two is really not good.
But in terms of defending Dayao at the low post in the playoffs, it is indeed not small.
Therefore, the Heat must also find an insider who can replace the two.
The 76ers signed Dayao to a four-year, $80 million extension.
The Lakers signed Matt Butters with a two-year, $7 million mid-level exception.
The Celtics also signed Carter with a two-year, $7 million mid-level exception.
It can be said that the free market opened for the second time, and no substantial big fish was traded.
December 10.
Celtics training camp officially opened.
The Celtics’ 15-man roster has been assembled at this time.
Center: Jordan, Timofey Mozgov.
Power forward: Aldridge, Birdman.
Small forwards: Pierce, Shane Battier, Uduka, Danny Green, Jeff Green.
Shooting guards: Gentleman Ray, Aaron Afflalo, Carlos Delfino, Carter.
Point guards: Gu Yu, Avery Bradley.
However, only fourteen people came.
Junzilei did not come to the training camp because he was still recovering.
On the first day of training camp, Gu Yu saw George Karl’s ‘crazy’
“I believe everyone knows me, so I won’t introduce myself!”
“In the new season, I don’t know what your goal is, but our goal is the championship!””
“I’ve watched the Celtics tapes for the past five years, strong! That’s my impression of the Celtics!”
“But I want Celtic to be a tough team!
Strong and strong, don’t look at it, it’s just a word.
But the difference is huge!
“The Celtics lost to the Heat last season, but this season we’re going to beat the Heat! 35
“This season, I ask you to change your style of play. Rough, tough, and iron-blooded is the style of play I want to bring to this team! 35
“Better give me a foul than let LeBron score easily!
“If I knock LeBron down a hundred times and he can get off the ground, then knock him out for me one hundred and one!”
George Karl almost said that he wanted to turn basketball into a fight with the ball.
But Gu (cdcd) Yu knew that this was George Karl.
If there is no such ruthlessness, the original history would not want to abolish Curry!
Then under the leadership of George. Carr, the Celtics began to practice new tactics.
As in the original history, on December 18, 2011, Jeff Green was diagnosed with an aortic aneurysm and required surgery, for which he will miss the entire 2011-12 season.
The Celtics, who had already reduced the number of Junzi Lei, now have one less player.
Before the season started, two players were missing due to various reasons.
The road to the Celtics’ championship has once again cast a shadow.
December 25.
Christmas in a beautiful home.
Today, as the NBA’s opener, the league has three games scheduled.
Heat vs. Mavericks.
Thunder vs. Lakers.
Bulls vs. 76ers.
This season is the Celtics’ rare absence of the season opener.
It can also be seen from here that the outside world and even the league are not very optimistic about the Celtics who have been attacked by injuries and have an aging lineup.
Gu Yu also watched the three games at home.
The Heat and the Mavericks were rivals in the finals last season, and now they meet again.
The team that was pushed into the downwind became the Mavericks.
Mavericks compared with last season, that is, Peja retired, plus Chandler replaced Larry. Sanders, and then the lineup is one year older.
It was James who really put the Mavericks into a tough fight.
How strong is James this season?
Averaged 27.1 points, 6.2 assists, 7.9 rebounds, 1.9 steals and 0.8 blocks per game.
Shot 53.1 percent from the field and 36.2 percent from three-point range.
After hard training in the off-season, James not only initially developed his back, but even the three-pointer, which has been criticized, has also increased his hit rate.
Caron Butler and Kidd took turns to defend James alone, plus Larry Sanders’ constant help to defend and attack.
Neither succeeded in restraining James.
James made 12 of 19 shots, 2 of 5 three-pointers, 4 of 6 free throws, and scored 30 points, 7 assists, 9 rebounds, 1 steal and 1 block.
Led the Heat to a 107:98 victory over the Mavericks.
If the Heat and the Mavericks game, it is like the epitome of the alternation of old and new.
The Thunder and the Lakers are the epitome of the alternation of old and new.
The Lakers are simply helpless in the face of the Thunder’s overflowing talent.
The Lakers have a strong lineup.
Kobe, Artest, Big Hard, Bynum, and a left-handed magician Odom on the bench.
But none of these players are at their peak.
Big hard was badly injured.
Artest’s traverse speed has dropped dramatically due to age.
In the original history of Odom, he was traded to the Mavericks by the Lakers, and this history still remains with the Lakers.
But Odom’s staying with the Lakers won’t change one thing.
That is, no one in the Lakers can limit Du Xiaoshuai!
