I'm not really a role player

Chapter 354

Chapter 354

Perhaps it was the public opinion that gave Sparks the illusion that he really thought he was a player of the same level as Li Ke and Le Bang.

But look at Le Bang, who was promoted to the Eastern Conference Finals by the Big Three, and Li Ke, who broke into the Eastern Conference Finals with the help of the best manager Rich Joe...

Sparks felt that he was out in the first round because he lacked a good team.

So, when the playoffs were in full swing, the sparks quickly exploded the headlines of the major media——

ESPN: After being eliminated in the first round of the playoffs, Dwight Howard submitted a trade application!

Sports Illustrated: Only two years left on contract, Dwight Howard asks to leave!

Bleachers: Analysis of Warcraft next home!

……

Seeing these rumors, Li Ke's first reaction was—Spark is leaving now?

It's normal to think about it carefully. In the 10-11 season in the previous life, the Magic's regular season record was not bad, so Sparks didn't shout to leave.

However, with the Magic in this time and space, all kinds of chaotic transactions, and the coaching change, the Magic's record has declined severely, and it is reasonable for the spark to go away.

The only question is, where will he go?

The analysis of the bleachers is quite reasonable. First, they gave the reasons why the Magic had to let people go:

"The team is entangled in big contracts. The rookie contracts of young players expire and need to be renewed. The Magic's salary space is completely locked. It is impossible to come back."

"Warcraft's contract is only two years away. If we don't let him go this summer, and if it is delayed until next year, the value of Warcraft will be greatly reduced."

To sum up, it's time for the Magic to rebuild, and at this time, the trading sparks can get the most bargaining chips.

Next, Bleacher analyzed the possible whereabouts of Warcraft:

"As soon as the trade rumors came out, the teams interested in getting Warcraft include: Lakers, Clippers, Rockets, Warriors, Nets..."

As the only three first-team + first-defense winners this season, the asking price of Sparks' transaction must not be low.

For the Lakers, Li Ke's previous offer (with An Zhu as the main body) is not enough.

But it's not too difficult for the Lakers to meet the Magic's offer. After all, in this time and space, they still have Ariza's high-quality asset, plus Odom and Jiasao, there are still opportunities.

As far as the Clippers are concerned, they did not send away the first round of the 11-year draft in order to clear Baron Davis' contract as they did in their previous lives.

And with their eighth-worst record in the league this season, they can get a top lottery pick.

Coupled with Eric Gordon, Eric Bledsoe and other high-quality young players, the Clippers have a greater chance than the Lakers.

After all, in this year's playoffs, Jiasao and Anzhu's value plummeted after being abused.

The Rockets' chances should be the smallest among the five teams. Except for Lowry and Dragic, they don't even have enough good young players, and the draft picks are not ranked high.

The chances of the Warriors are not small. Monta Ellis and Dorrell Wright, who played worthwhile last season, can all be traded. In addition, they also have a mid-lotter pick.

The Nets' willingness to trade is the strongest among the five teams. After the Sparks applied for a trade, Billy King announced that they were willing to trade with the Magic with Jimmy Butler plus draft picks. For this reason, they were also willing to swallow Carter's big contract.

In general, the Rockets are here to make faces, and the remaining four teams have a chance.

In addition to these five interested teams, the bleachers also named three teams that have no idea about the Sparks for the time being, but the bricks believe that if they get the Sparks, they will take off.

"Bobcats: DeAndre Jordan's rookie contract is up, use him as a bargaining chip instead of paying a lot of money to re-sign,

Take the big contracts of Wesley Matthews or Lance Stephenson, as well as Mo Williams and Antawn Jamison, and trade for Dwight Howard.

In this regard, the Bobcats can form a super trio of Curry + Sheldon + Howard, and the dynasty is expected! "

"Thunder: Although Scott Brooks has found the accurate positioning of Brook Lopez, the presence of Da Luo still makes the Thunder's inside line a little softer.

In this series against the Grizzlies, the inside combination of Daluo + Ibaka was repeatedly overwhelmed by the Grizzlies' insiders, which is enough to draw this conclusion.

Perhaps, they can try to use Daluo + draft picks to trade Dwight Howard, plus KD and Raja Rondo, they will be another super team. "

"Bulls: Although Joakim Noah was elected as Dpoy this season, he failed to enter the first defense, which has already explained his problem.

Without Tom Thibodeau's system, he would definitely not be able to compete with Howard, who has already Dpoy's two consecutive villages.

Throughout the playoffs, the Bulls lacked a second strong point other than Rose, which was the main reason why they ranked second in the Eastern Conference but were completely abused by the Cavaliers.

If they get Howard, they can change that. "

Li Ke stroked his chin and looked at the analysis of the bleachers. He was really a little scared.

What are you afraid of?

Afraid of Old Joe, Jr. Jordan's agent is Dan Fagan, that's right, it's Dan Feigen, the troublesome former U.S. agent.

Also when the rookie contract expired, Li Ke renewed his contract with the Bobcats early.

Little Jordan has been dragging on because his agent is Dan Fagan.

If this drags on, it's hard to guarantee that Old Joe will lose his patience. It just so happens that Sparks applies for a deal, signing first and then changing to Jordan.

In addition to the Bobcats bench group that was worth a lot because of Rivers' brainless rotation last season, it is not difficult to catch one or two and change a spark.

It stands to reason that Sparks has been praised as one of the three players who will rule the NBA in the future. If Sparks can come, Li Ke should be happy.

The problem is that Li Ke knows that in the next two or three seasons, Sparks will be plagued by injuries, and at the same time think highly of himself and refuse to do dirty work. His real contribution to the team may not be as good as that of the hardworking Jordan.

At this time, Li Ke really wanted to talk to Lao Qiao, but Lao Qiao disappeared.

"By the way, we haven't seen Michael in a while?"

In daily training, Li Ke raised this point abruptly, and Tim Graver nodded: "After the Grizzlies led the Spurs by a large margin in the first round of the playoffs, he disappeared."

"Do you know where he went?"

"do not know……"

Second, he was afraid of Thunder's attack. If it was just a spark, Li Ke wouldn't be so worried.

The trio of Rondo + Xiaodu + Sparks, I am afraid that the free throws will not be cut off.

The problem is that there are Hornets' Pao Ge who are currently in the listing market.

If Sam Presti really wanted to be smart, he would trade Da Luo for Sparks and Rondo for Pao Ge.

Thunder has accumulated so many years, the chips in hand are enough.

The trio of Huo Hua + Xiao Du + Brother Pao is scary to watch.

The remaining Bulls, as well as the five teams interested in the Sparks, are not a big problem.

The Bulls won the Sparks, and all they can form is an injury combination of Rose + Sparks.

The remaining 5 teams only have enough chips to win one of the Sparks or Paoge.

As long as you don't take Paoge and Spark at the same time, it's not a big problem.

"It seems that the summer of 11 will be another summer that changes the league structure."

……

On May 5, David Stern, who suddenly appeared in Chicago, watched Game 11 of Cavaliers vs. Bulls.

It was a one-sided game. LeBron locked up Rose in the open game, but Rose won as many as 16 free throws.

Even so, the Bulls lost the game because the Cavaliers broke out.

乐邦28分、韦德21分、波什20分，三巨头合砍69分，再加上迈克毕比的5记三分……

With the whistle all over the court, the Cavaliers eliminated the Bulls with a total score of 4 to 1.

"Let's go, we should go back to New York..."

Mr. Si got up and walked in front with a blank expression.

It seemed that he was very unhappy.

Stu Jackson behind him knew that, no need to look, Lao Si was just unhappy.

In this game, the league originally wanted to control the field, and the referee gave Rose 16 free throws as evidence.

But in the end, it was still not under control.

The Big Three are too strong. After a wave of supplements in the middle of the season, the Cavaliers' role players are not bad.

With a 4-1 victory over the second-ranked Bulls in the league, the strength of the Cavaliers should not be underestimated.

As long as you pass the Bobcat level...

Stu Jackson is also shaking his head. He believes that the Cavaliers have the ability to build a dynasty of the Big Three.Even the Bobcats, who were swept in the first two rounds, may not be able to stop the Cavaliers.

As long as they overtake the Bobcats, the Cavaliers will start a dynasty.

But that's what Lao Si didn't want to see.

Before the playoffs, or before the Sparks applied for a deal, David Stern's dislike of the Big Three was not so prominent.

but now……

"Carmelo Anthony, Deron Williams, Chris Paul, Dwight Howard, they all learn from one another, and they all just want to form a group and join forces!"

"Look at the current Heat, look at the current Raptors, look at the current Jazz, what is the thriving small ball market like now?"

"The Cavaliers have ruined these so-called star players, the ecology of the league is being destroyed, and David's years of hard work have gone to waste!"

Entering the long passage, Adam Silver suddenly started a seemingly angry tirade.

Stu Jackson pouted, of course he knew the purpose of this Jew.

Lao Si is about to retire, Xiao Hua suddenly reacted, and began to agree with Lao Si in every aspect, looking as if his theory and thinking were consistent with Lao Si.

The purpose is to take over the position of the league president after Lao Si retires.

But Xiao Hua didn't know that Lao Si had already seen his essence clearly, and everything Xiao Hua did now was more like a funny clown doing funny performances.

But I have to say that Xiao Hua's words still reached the bottom of Lao Si's heart.

Superstars huddling together is what Lao Si doesn't want to see, and what Lao Si doesn't want to see is superstars leaving small ball markets and joining big cities.

"I think we should prevent the Cavaliers from winning the championship. For this reason, we can let the referees favor the Bobcats. We can also hint at Michael Jordan and let them win Dwight Howard. After all, Charlotte is a small ball market, and they are also the most promising team to prevent the Cavaliers from winning the championship..."

No one paid attention to Adam Silver, but likewise, no one knew whether his words were approved by Lao Si.

……

Charlotte, seeing the Cavaliers advance, the Bobcats know that it is time to start preparing for the Eastern Conference Finals.

Although they beat the Cavaliers 1-3 in the regular season, the Cavaliers should not be underestimated in the playoffs.

Rivers held a tactical meeting and analyzed the playoff Cavaliers in detail.

"So far in the playoffs, the Cavaliers have established a starting lineup. The point guard is Randy Foye, shooting guard Dwyane Wade, small forward LeBron James, power forward Chris Bosh, and center Anderson Varejao."

"We can't rule out the changes they may make in the Eastern Conference Finals, that is, they are likely to start Ron Artest and let LeBron James go to the point guard. They will use this lineup for most of the last four series against the Bulls."

"As for the Cavaliers' bench, we only need to pay attention to the three points of Daniel Gibson, Eddie House, Mike Bibby and Maurice Evans..."

The Cavaliers in the playoffs lined up an 8-man rotation lineup. The starting three giants Gavarejo plus Foye or Artest, the backup three controllers are based on the opponent's last one, plus Li Ke's senior Maurice Evans.

The intensity of this rotation is very high, although it is still not as good as the Bobcats.

But in the playoffs, the Bobcats' bench advantage will be difficult to play.

Because of the playoffs, the rotation of eight or nine players is enough.

"Selton continues to guard against LeBron James, and Dwyane Wade will be handed over to Stephen (Jackson), the fourth position. I plan to use the tower to start and use the tower to counter Chris Bosh. In this way, DeAndre can be liberated and become the core of the zone defense..."

Although the wave giant has become a derogatory term, but so far in the playoffs, his performance is still remarkable.

首轮场均15.5分8.0个篮板1.8个盖帽，次轮场均23.2分7.6个篮板1.0个盖帽，勉强打出了巨头的作用。

Rivers felt that if he didn't target him, Boss could kill people.

After all, everyone knows that the Bobcats are afraid of offensive insiders.

After talking about defense, the next thing I want to introduce is the regular play style of the Cavaliers so far in the playoffs.

Because the Heat's Big Three became the Cavaliers' Big Three, "This is my house" is owned by LeBron.

Larry Brown and Mike Brown are both Browns, there is no difference, and he doesn't have any offensive routines.

Except for the pick-and-roll that the Cavaliers played for a period of time at the beginning of the season, the Cavaliers played a tactic officially called Free style for the rest of the time.

In fact, it is to give the ball to the Big Three and let them play freely.

What Larry Brown has to do is to split the playing time and main attacking time of the Big Three.

After the split, most of the time, the Cavaliers focused on breakthrough points based on Lebron.

But now it's not called sudden points. The Cavaliers invited an NFL data analyst to create a system called "quarterback offense".

The three main styles of play are: teammates pull away, LeBon holds the ball and breaks through, and completes a layup; or attracts the defense to distribute the ball;

Analyzing the Cavaliers' offensive play, Bickerstaff Jr. pointed out: "The key point is Shelton's defense against LeBron James. As long as he can lock LeBron James, the Cavaliers have to change their usual play."
