NBA Building Cardinals

Chapter 329 330. Official Announcement to Join (1 More)

Chapter 329. Chapter 330

April 11

The Bobcats announced on their team's official website that they have cut off the left-handed throwing knife Karim on the team's back line.

Then he signed Christie, the outside gate who was given up by the Mavericks.

As soon as the news came out, although it also got the attention of other teams in the league, it was far from shocking.

After all, the news that Christie was given up by the Mavericks was known to all teams in the league.

It's just that most teams are not very interested in Christie, because signing him not only means laying off a player first, but also means accepting his contract with the Mavericks.

If you don't want to accept this contract, you have to wait until he becomes a complete free agent before re-signing.

Therefore, under various considerations, each team did not make a move as soon as possible.

Even a few teams that have ideas about Christie, most of them are thinking about it, but no one expected the Bobcats to start so quickly.

Christie announced that he was waived on the first day, and the signing was officially confirmed on the second day.

This shows that they have great confidence in signing Christie. Although the Bobcats' signing with Christie did not attract the attention of the rest of the league, after Kareem entered the free market, he did get the attention of many teams.

The Bobcats made it to the Eastern Conference semifinals last season, which also allowed several Bobcats players whose contracts expired during the offseason to sign a contract as they wished.

Although Kareem is strong in offense and weak in defense, his advantages and disadvantages are equally obvious, but when he was in the Bobcats, his terrifying three-point shooting still attracted the attention of many teams.

So far this season, Kareem has played a total of seven games for the Bobcats, averaging 6.1 points, 1.1 rebounds and 0.8 assists per game.

At first glance, this data is not outstanding, but you must know that as the Bobcats have more and more rotations this season, Kareem's playing time has also been compressed.

He is currently averaging only 13.4 minutes per game.

As a rotation player, the contribution of this data is already very impressive, and Kareem still has a 36% three-point shooting percentage.

Coupled with the offensive methods that the individual is already familiar with, any team can be said to be plug and play, and can contribute a stable outside output.

Therefore, after Kareem became a restricted free agent at this time, he was favored by many teams just after entering the free market.

Among them, of course, is the Golden State Warriors.

Bickerstaff, who once coached Kareem, is very familiar with Kareem.

In addition, the Warriors are now an outside-oriented team, and the team has many stable scorers outside the three-point line.

So for Kalim, Bickerstaff is also determined to win.

In addition to the Warriors, the Rockets, Lakers, Celtics and Wizards have all expressed great interest in Kareem.

It is not yet known who will win in the end, but Liu Rui prefers Kareem to join the Warriors.

In addition to being more familiar with Bickerstaff, going there only needs a simple break-in, because Kareem's style of play on the court is also more in line with the Warriors.

But how to choose in the end is also Karim's own business.

Everyone has their own aspirations, and no one knows whether there is any negotiation outside of the contract in private.

After the Bobcats announced the news, Christie also officially joined the Bobcats.

It's just that Christie has just joined the team and needs to go through a series of procedures, and he needs to customize the Bobcats' exclusive jersey.

Coupled with the fact that the Bobcats have been playing away games, this also led to Christie not being able to play directly for the team in the next game.

If you want to make your debut, I'm afraid you can only wait for another one.

Although Liu Rui can't wait to use Christie, after all, this is simply one of the proper 3D masters.

The reason why he is said to be the patriarch of 3D is not because he is the first group of 3D players, but because he is the first group of 3D players to make a name for themselves.

It is undeniable that there are too many 3D players in the long history of the NBA, but those who can really be put on the stage and make people talk about it are indeed a handful.

Although it is also due to age, it is impossible for Christie to follow the main offensive point of the opponent all the time like when she was young, but this is exactly what Liu Rui wants.

After all, there are many rookies in the Bobcats now, and Liu Rui's main task is of course to hone the rookies.

Therefore, the arrival of Christie will definitely not have too much playing time, but when he is needed, Christie can play at any time, which is the greatest contribution to the Bobcats.

The Bobcats haven't had a true backcourt blocker since they traded Duhon last season.

Even with the two players Joe Johnson and Granger this season, it can only be said that the defensive ability in the same position is not bad.

The name of the defensive gate is too bad.

Christie's joining can be regarded as an end to one of Liu Rui's concerns.

Can shoot three-pointers and defend, this is simply a player tailor-made for Liu Rui! !

...............

The Bobcats released the news on their official website, but on this day, everyone in the Bobcats continued their western road trip.

Now that he has come to the Staples Arena in Los Angeles, he will take an away game to challenge the powerful Lakers in the West.

The past two seasons of the Lakers can be described as relatively bumpy. In the last season, the Lakers failed to make it to the playoffs.

After O'Neal was traded to the Heat, it also announced that the Lakers had completely entered the Kobe era.

But in the last season, first Tang Shuai's coaching change, and then Kobe's injury left the game, which also made the entire Lakers play relatively loosely.

The team's tactics on the court have not been unified, the players' health has problems, and the management's own problems have not been resolved. After a series of things, the Lakers missed the playoffs last season.

During the offseason of this season, the Lakers also re-invited Zen master Jackson to coach.

After all, for the use of Kobe, Jackson is indeed the best choice.

It's just that in this offseason, the Lakers' reinforcements were not smooth. After losing the team's second offensive point, Caron Butler, the Lakers did not get very good reinforcements.

Although the inside player Bynum was selected in the first round, as a rookie, he will definitely not be reused by Zen Master in the first season.

The whole team is completely Kobe Bryant and Odom carrying the weight forward.

And Odom is not a player known for his offense, so the offensive burden of the Lakers has all been placed on Kobe this season.
