Basketball: Starting from the Rodman template

Chapter 103 The most correct offensive and defensive tactics of the Heat, the anxious LeBron team

In fact, when most of the media heard the news, their first reaction was to doubt the news.

They thought it was fake news.

Or, the news is true, but the relationship between the characters is confused.

It wasn't Woody who broke Karl Malone's rib elbow, but Karl Malone who broke Woody's rib.

Ok……

That sounds reasonable!

It's no wonder they doubt the authenticity of this news, this is Karl Malone!
How did the nickname "Postman" come from?

Isn't it because he has a "steel body" and works tirelessly all year round?

It wasn't until they saw the video that they finally believed in the authenticity of the news.

Karl Malone...

Also old!
This is the first thought of most reporters after watching this video.

They can't find any other reason than that people's bones become brittle when they get old.

Because judging from the video alone, Woody's elbow movement is not strong.

Karl Malone: ​​Not too much, is it?Why don't you try it?
After confirming the authenticity of the news, these reporters began to make objective or subjective evaluations on this matter.

Their basis is also very unified.

As Johnson envisioned...

Karl Malone's injury this time, in the final analysis, was his first move. After his obvious elbow, there was Woody's elbow.

Since the referee also thinks that he fouled first, then...

His injury this time can only be said to be his own fault.

I thought Woody was a rookie, so I wanted to use these "sloppy" methods to deal with Woody and let him suffer some dark losses, but I didn't expect that when I encountered a ruthless stubble, it made people fall down with an elbow!

It boils down to one word:

Should!
An objective reporter analyzed this, and the article was almost finished.

The reporters with subjective emotions began to "cite the scriptures" and count the various "crimes" committed by Karl Malone in the league that year, calling this "the recovery of the Skynet, without omissions."

Not only did Woody not be contaminated with any "villain" image, but he became a "dragon slaying boy".

Players who had a rift with Karl Malone back then, or suffered dark losses under his iron elbow, also stood up the next day and supported Woody one after another!

Such a scene was beyond Woody's expectation. When he woke up early the next morning after returning to Miami, he felt relaxed when he saw this scene.

As for Karl Malone, he originally wanted to accuse Woodian of "young people don't practice martial arts and sneak attacks on old people" through the media. Seeing the condemnation from the whole network, it immediately died down.

His agent was very helpless: "Didn't he have a conflict with Artest just now?"

In other words:
This person is not easy to mess with, why are you messing with him?

In this case, before this incident happened, he would definitely not tell Karl Malone. After all, this man can be described as a well-known "villain" in the league. Even before this incident, he could not believe it. Elbowed Karl Malone's ribs.

However, "after the fact" it!

The main thing is an after-the-fact addiction, and the key party has no way to refute it.

In addition to the discussion of this matter, there are also discussions about the game itself.

Even without this incident, this game is exciting enough:
When the Heat trailed by 11 points in the first half, relying on the cooperation of Woody and Wade, the two rookies, one offense and one defense helped the team reverse the point difference and win the final victory.

This game not only won the present, but also won the future!
As far as the "F4" of the Lakers this season, not everyone can face such a strong enemy and complete such a reversal.

Woody and Wade showed the upper limit of what they can achieve together in this game.

Bill Walton commented on the performance of Woody and Wade in this game, saying: "They have enough ability to build the cornerstone of a team's offense and defense, and they have enough ceiling!"

"Glider" believes: "Woody is no longer a question of whether he is good or not. He is a rare player who can be used as the cornerstone of defense to make a team a championship-level team!"

In Drexler's view, Woody's defense is the key to the Heat's counterattack.

Because the Lakers' average loss per game this season is not low, they will lose 94.8 points per game on average!
For comparison, the Pistons, the fourth in the East, averaged only 84.3 points per game; the Pacers, the number one in the East, averaged only 85.5 points per game;

The Lakers rank third in the West, but they lose nearly 10 points more than them in each game!
So the Lakers never rely on their defense to win, but rely on their offense to win...

They averaged 98.8 points per game this season, at least 7 points higher than the averages of these teams.

From these data, it can be seen that it is relatively easy to score points under their defense. The real difficulty is to prevent them from scoring points.

The Heat did this at the beginning of the third quarter, relying on the defense with Woody as the core!
The "two hoods" of the "hooded OK combination" is simply amazing!

This kind of defensive ability is really too exaggerated!

Barkley's "big mouth" started again: "I think Woody will be the Bill Russell among outside players in the future, a cornerstone that can drive the entire team by relying on personal defense! His appearance is a game for Subversion of active defensive players!"

These words caused quite a commotion in the outside world.

The Heat's next game is a game against the Grizzlies at home.

The Grizzlies' starting No. 98, who had just been traded from the Trail Blazers to Memphis in the first round of 11, Bunch Wells, heard Barkley's remarks, and said with disdain: "Among the outside players Bill Russell? Since Barkley became a commentator, he has really become more and more irrelevant. I will let him know how unbearable he thinks Bill Russell is among the perimeter players. Hit, how ridiculous it is!"

The Grizzlies can also be regarded as a "dark polo team" this season. They worked hard last season for the 03 draft year. They didn't have any big signings this summer. For example, the acquisition of Bunch Wells from the Trail Blazers made the team jump from the bottom three last season to the sixth team in the West!
There is a saying, "Winning is a thing, who is so awesome!"

Without me, Bunch Wells last season, you were ranked third from the bottom in the West. This season, with my Bunch Wells joining in mid-to-late November, you have climbed all the way to the sixth position in the West.

Isn't it clear who this team is in C?

Bunch Wells is very inflated, even more inflated than when he averaged 4 points and 17 rebounds per game 6 years ago!

At this moment, I heard that there is a rookie on the opposite side, who is called "Bill Russell among outside players" by Charles Barkley, and the popularity is very high. Of course, we must seize this opportunity to suppress this "early bird" , Increase your reputation!

Woody heard someone taunting him, and excitedly opened the system panel.

I just slid to the task interface, looking at the empty panel, I was immediately disappointed.

No!
Is it that kind of food?
Don't even bother to send a task from the food to the system?

Then how could he be so provocative!
Woody was depressed.

Depressed, he immediately took out Bunch-Wells' personal information and conducted a careful study on him:

Bunch Wells is 1 meters tall, mainly plays the No. 96 position, and occasionally plays the No. 2 position.But in terms of play, he is very different from the traditional second position, or the usual "forward swingman".

He is more used to low-post singles. He is aggressive and likes to disrupt the game. He has excellent rebounding ability, especially the offensive rebounding ability. In the peak period before, he averaged 1.6 offensive rebounds per game. This season has weakened slightly, but There are still about 1 offensive rebound per game.

Overall, it looks a bit like a "bankrupt Barkley".

Both are perimeter height and power forward style of play.

But what really sets him apart from Barkley is that his shooting ability is too weak.

It has something to do with his personality.

In the early days of entering the league, he played first-class player data early, and then indulged in bad things off the court, plus he was in the "Portland Prison Team", what can he learn from that place?All the good times have been ruined, and now he still has no shooting ability!

This is a weakness that is very worth targeting, and it can have a significant effect once it is targeted!

That night, Woody also kept these problems of Bunche Wells in mind, as well as his playing habits.

When facing up, give him enough shooting space to prevent him from breaking through easily, and try not to confront him in advance when he rushes up. This guy is 1 meters tall and weighs 96kg. He is completely small. The calf, the impact is very strong, Woody is only 95KG heavier than him, and he can use his height and wingspan to interfere when he rushes to the basket.

If we talk about confrontation ahead of time, if Woody and him were on June [-]th, then when we got to the basket, it would be a very pure "spring water"!

Whether it's interfering with his shot or protecting the rebound in the confrontation, Bunche-Wells is powerless against him. He has already started to make many moves in his mind, but facing Woody, his hands Action just doesn't work.

More often, I can only watch Woody block shots or grab rebounds ahead of time.

"What kind of arm span is this!"

"What kind of bounce is this!"

"How can he still dance?"

"What kind of monster is this!"

And Bunch Wells was gradually refreshed in the confrontation with Woody again and again.

this monster...

It's so scary!

At the end of the game, Bunch Wells only scored 6 points and 3 rebounds.

The data is very bad. As the "offensive rebounder" among guards, he failed to grab a rebound in this game.

He probably confronted Woody about 10 times, and he didn't grab a rebound once.

Either it was accepted by Woody himself, or Woody hit the rebound first and passed the ball to his teammate.

But this data is not the most embarrassing.

Even more embarrassing is the number of times he has been blocked...

A full 5 times!
All from Woody!
After the game, he had only one feeling, the basket was full of Woody!

Not to mention scoring goals, it was difficult for him to even shoot.

Bunch Wells' final stats were fixed at a miserable 6 points, 3 rebounds, 5 blocked shots, and 4 turnovers.

Woody's data is completely opposite to his 19 points, 14 rebounds, 5 blocks and 5 assists!

今晚的伍迪又一次拿下了“15加10加5加5”的全面数据，这是他职业生涯第3次拿到这样的数据！

And on the night he scored such a statistic, the Heat were without exception a very refreshing victory.

This game was no exception. The Heat beat the Grizzlies 101 to 89, 12 points at their home court, and won the "three-game winning streak" in December.

ESPN commentator Mike Breen summed up the game: "Woody's data has become a barometer for the Heat. When his personal performance on the offensive end and assist data reach the season average or above, it is often the Heat. Play the most comfortable rhythm!"

The reason for this is that Wade only scored 18 points tonight.

James Posey and Sean Battier took care of him clearly, and he was completely different from the bravery he faced the Lakers in the last game.

But this does not affect the Heat to win the game smoothly.

Even without his breakthrough, there are Odom's offense with the ball, Eddie Jones' outside shooting, and Woody and Gerald Wallace's air cuts.

In the case of sports games, the Heat still have a lot of scoring methods.

It's just that after falling into the positional battle, their offensive breakthrough must rely on Wade's breakthrough with the ball to tear the opponent's defense.

However, at that time, the entire offensive rhythm of the Heat is often driven by the opponent. Wade's breakthrough alone can't solve any problems.Pure "dead horse as a living horse doctor"!
The next game against the Spurs also proved this point.

This is the second time the Heat have faced the Spurs this season. The last game against the Spurs was the Heat's second "back-to-back" game. They lacked physical fitness and lost easily.

This game...

They still lost easily.

In this game, Wade showed his progress since he entered the league for a month. In front of him, Tony Parker, the No. [-] "French sports car" of the Spurs, was really a "small sports car toy". You don't have to worry about his reaction at all.

He scored 19 points in this game.

good performance.

But the main reason for the Heat's loss was that Woody couldn't take into account the inside and outside help defense like other teams, especially for Tim Duncan's help defense, the effect was very bad.

This makes Stan Van Gundy have to shrink the defensive formation and double-team Tim Duncan at any time.

But the problem is...

Tim Duncan is not the Shaq O'Neal of this period, he can only nest in the basket, his comprehensive offensive ability, and physical fitness in his prime allow him to appear anywhere within the three-point line.

The Heat's defense thus became passive.

Coupled with the Spurs' disciplined teamwork and team command, the Heat can't always play a comfortable rhythm on the offensive end, and fall into positional warfare from time to time.

Driving the tempo, Tim Duncan was impactful on both ends of the floor...

These are precisely the two basic conditions for the Spurs to win in this period!

蒂姆-邓肯全场打完，轻松砍下了26分12篮板3盖帽3助攻1抢断，马刺队也以10分轻轻松松战胜热火队。

In fact, in terms of strength, Tim Duncan is undoubtedly the "League No. 1" at this stage. His name has been written on the regular season MVP trophies in the past two years, which also proves this.

What many people don't know is that after Michael Jordan, the first player to defend the regular season MVP trophy was Tim Duncan.

This is something that Allen Iverson, Shaq O'Neal and other "top super giants" in the early 00s failed to do.It's just his low-key personality and his exposure in the city of San Antonio that affected him.

Many media believe that if Tim Duncan was really selected by the Celtics back then, he will definitely look more dazzling than him in the Spurs during this period.

Under the "wealthy halo", he is no longer a "stone Buddha", but directly becomes a "Great Buddha of America"!

Woody's game can be regarded as a lesson in what is called "Duncan, the stone Buddha who is as immovable as a mountain".

Ordinary interference can't affect him at all, it must be the kind of interference that completely covers him to affect his shot.

But this guy's grasp of the timing of his shots is at the top of the league, so Woody can't show his defense ability well at all.

Of course, to put it bluntly, he is still not capable enough. If he is allowed to fulfill the full defense potential of the template, not to mention winning the game, he is fully sure to make Tim Duncan even more uncomfortable.

Unfortunately, he is still a long way from realizing the full potential of the template.

Tonight he only got 10 rebounds, all of which were backcourt rebounds.

Yes, Woody didn't grab a single offensive rebound tonight.

This is the first time in his career...

Although facing Tim Duncan, it is normal not to be able to grab it.

What's more, Popovich has also studied his rebounding, so as to maximize the outside line to mobilize Woody away from the basket.This is one of the reasons why Woody didn't grab the offensive rebound.

But facing the Spurs, just protecting the backcourt rebounds is really not enough to win the game.

In addition to 10 rebounds, Woody scored only 11 points and shot 45% from the field!

The Spurs have high defensive enthusiasm, excellent defensive awareness, and good defensive habits. The team is really the nemesis of Woody's style of players.

The chance of air cuts to get shots is greatly reduced, and at the same time, air cuts to the basket almost never happen without help defense. ——Tim Duncan is also an excellent help defense player.

With few points, there are naturally not many assists. Woody only got 2 in this game!
11 points, 10 rebounds, 2 assists...

Playing against the Spurs for the second time this season, Woody continues to pay tuition!
But this game made Drexler more sure that the team's "barometer" is not Wade, but Woody.

Not only did he affirm it, many media also saw this phenomenon:

Wade played mediocre in the last game and the team won; against the Spurs, he was the best player on the Heat team and the team lost;
Woody performed bravely and comprehensively in the last game, and the team won easily; against the Spurs, the offensive end was limited, and the defensive end performance was not very good, so the team simply lost;
It is clear at a glance whose data is the "real data" for this team!
After the game, Stan Van Gundy returned to Miami to visit his teacher again.

This is the second time since December that he has taken the initiative to have a serious conversation with his teacher.

The last time was after playing the Lakers.

Wade and Woody "double stars shine" in Los Angeles. After he returned to Miami, he immediately found Pat Riley excitedly. Germany is the core of the offensive end, and Woody is established as the core of the defensive end. I believe that this lineup runs smoothly and can definitely go far!"

Pat Riley didn't answer the question, but asked him to take another look and observe.

After these two more games, he understood what Pat Riley meant by "re-observation and observation"!

Taking Wade as the core of the offensive end is just a "false proposition" reflected by the data.

The way this team plays has nothing to do with Wade at all.

In other words, Wade is not the "cornerstone" in the Heat's offensive and defensive architecture.

He is here, and the Heat can play like this. If he is not here, the Heat can replace someone else, such as Ricky Davis. Without considering the growth, the Heat are actually still the current model.

The one person who really can't live without is Woody!
The defensive end must rely on him to establish a defensive system, and the offensive end must also help him open the situation.

The Heat's inside rotation consists of four people: Woody, Odom, Grant and Haslem.

Among them, Woody aside, the other three do not have a good ability to finish at the basket.

Including Odom.

He's more of an outside style of play.

The Heat want to create a sense of urgency for the opponent inside. Woody's offensive state is particularly important. When his shooting percentage increases, coupled with Wade's breakthrough, the opponent can shrink the defensive formation...

That is to say...

The offensive tactics, while focusing on Wade, have to help Woody open up the offensive situation and make it easier for him to attack.

Then on the defensive end, it is all about Woody, and the defense is arranged...

"So teacher, I thought about it. The pick-and-roll tactic is the most suitable offensive tactic for the Heat..." Stan Van Gundy said, "But Woody and Wade's shooting ability is not very good. In this regard, I think it can be matched. Use UCLA's running system, add shooting points to other positions in the lineup..."

Doing this can help the two of them open up a space, and prevent the opponent from double-teaming the two of them at will.

Another advantage is that Wade's organizational ability is not strong, and his ability to organize running tactics and pass the ball is not outstanding. All his assists come from breaking through and scoring.But with the UCLA running system, it can make up for his lack of organization and passing ability, so that he can play more easily in the 1st position.

Pat Riley was very satisfied with Stan Van Gundy's report this time, and nodded with a smile: "Man, it is indeed the right choice for you to replace me as the new head coach of the Heat! I believe that you will never You failed these two rookies, and if there is a head coach who is most suitable for training these two kids in this league, then I think this person must be you!"

Stan Van Gundy had a snot bubble when he heard this. Fortunately, he knew that Pat Riley had listened to his arrangement and would definitely give him a mental "sugar-coated cannonball" to knock him out.

After following Pat Riley for so many years, how can he not know what kind of urine Pat Riley is?
So he wrote down the difficulties of this tactical system in his notebook early on...

The biggest difficulty is how Wade remembers the tactical moves of his teammates in the shortest time!
Only by remembering the tactical movement, this ULCA movement system can help him.

If it's Woody, this is definitely not a difficult point, but this is Wade...

"35" is really too difficult!

Pat Riley didn't have a headache at all, he waved his hand, don't worry, I'll take care of it.

Stan Van Gundy walked away. He immediately picked up the phone at the corner of the table and dialed the phone number that he had memorized by heart. Before the call was made, he coughed twice and adjusted Soundtrack, after the call was connected, he said in the most loving tone: "Dwyane, my most satisfied child, I know you will never let me down, even if anything is in front of you, regardless of it If there is any difficulty, you will try your best to complete it, right? I have never had any doubts about this, just like when I want to get you, when I make a deal, I never have the slightest hesitation, because you It's Dwyane Wade...the boy I can always count on!"

Wade's head went down at that time...

You know!

As a person, I can't listen to such words!

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

Then he yelled these words with all his blood.

What kind of picture of "a loving father and a filial son" is this!
Even Pat Riley himself has to admit that even his own son may not be as obedient as Dwyane Su Quanxiao Wade...

That's it for the first week of December.

On December 12, the league announced the "Player of the Week Award" for the first week of December.

Even after losing the game against the Spurs, the Heat still achieved a record of 3 wins and 1 loss.

而伍迪在这期间打步行者贡献了16分21篮板，打湖人队贡献了12分12篮板加7盖帽，打灰熊队又拿到了19分14篮板5助攻5盖帽，加上打马刺队的11分10篮板……

4场比赛他场均可以拿到14.5分14.25篮板3.75助攻4.25盖帽1.25抢断。投篮命中率62.5%！

表现极为全面，这让他击败了场均21.3分4篮板8.3助攻1.3抢断1.3盖帽，带队拿下3胜0负的文斯-卡特，成为了东部12月份首周的“周最佳球员”。

After the media knew the news, they interviewed Vince Carter immediately.

Now the outside world knows that the general manager of the Raptors wanted to choose Woody at first, but Vince Carter wanted to choose an immediate combat power, so he chose Chris Bosh.

It turns out that what they let go is a player who won the "Best of the Month" in the first month of the new season, and now stepped on his head to win the "Best of the Week" in the first week of December, with full combat power super rookie...

"Do you regret it, Vince?"

I regret your grandma's legs!

Vince Carter almost cursed directly.

At that time, the Raptors management gave him two choices.Either Chris Bosh or Woody.

Without the "eyes of the sky" and without knowing the following things, would you choose a high school student or a rookie who played well in the NCAA league?

Furthermore, it is not that there have been "genius high school students" in the NBA's past draft conferences, but whether it is Kevin Garnett or his cousin McGrady, they are all "semi-finished products" that need to be settled!
He has no choice at all...

Of course, having said that, Vince Carter does have a million regrets in his heart.

Such a supernova, no one would be envious!

But now, he can only...

Once, there was a talented newcomer in front of me, I didn't cherish it, if I was given a chance to start over...

Woody won the "Player of the Week Award" again, which not only made Vince Carter regretful, but also made the LeBron James team more anxious.

He also came out of St. Mary's High School. Now Woody has such a fierce momentum. He won the "Best Player of the Month" and "Best Player of the Week". ", winning the "Most Rookie of the Month Award" in the Eastern Conference is probably a matter of grasping!
But when he played so well, LeBron James' performance was still good and bad. For example, in the first game in December, he scored 12 points, 21 rebounds and 3 assists. In one game, he immediately struggled again. After the game, he had 4 points, 13 rebounds and 6 assists.

Fortunately, this kid is smart. He knows how to work hard on other data columns when a certain data cannot be filled in more.

But this is still far from Woody.

Going on like this, one thing is for sure:

The distance between him and Woody will be bigger and bigger!

At that time, don't be the "Three Great Talents". In terms of momentum, Carmelo Anthony can still wrestle with Woody...

This is also where they feel that LeBron James is unlucky. If the Cleveland Cavaliers are not in the East, but in the West, it will be fine, so that no matter how Woody dominates the East, it will not cause too much damage to LeBron James. Impact.

Instead, they can use "the east is weak and the west is strong" to argue for LeBron.

Carmelo Anthony next door is only more stable than LeBron James. If he is compared with Woody, his statistics can only be regarded as a good game or a bad game.

Woody is really too perverted, almost every game is a "double-double", so far in the new season, he has not won a double-double in one or two games... You don't care how economical his "double-double" is .

This "double double" title sounds nice and it's over~
The thing that made the LeBron James team the most angry happened on the second day after Woody won the first "Best of the Week" in December. The Miami media really didn't give LeBron James any chance of survival.

With such a big lead, they haven't forgotten to suppress LeBron James.

They found fault with LeBron James' average playing time of 40 minutes per game: "If Woody also played 40 minutes like LeBron James, his data will undoubtedly be more luxurious, no, it should be said... any rookie, If they get a lot of playing time like LeBron James, their numbers will definitely not be bad!"

You listen!
Does this speak human words?
The Goodman brothers once again suspected that there was a traitor among them!
The reason is also very simple, because they are recently starting from LeBron James' playing time and giving him an "Iron Man" personality.

Go out and ask, which high school student can play an average of 40 minutes per game when he first enters the league?
This is definitely a manifestation of "extraordinary physical condition and talent"!

Ok……

It's really nothing to brag about!

Start bragging about playing time!
But the result is that this advantage they have worked so hard to come up with is now being attacked by the Miami media first.

What is "public opinion"?
That is "the one who attacks first has the advantage"!
Now after such a report by the Miami media, when it comes to LeBron James' data, the fans will only say that it was all hard piled up by time. Which rookie has played for such a long time without good data...

It can only be said that the words of the Miami media are quite "killing and heartbreaking"!

The situation was further unfavorable to LeBron James, almost at the moment of life and death, LeBron James' team urgently contacted the management of the Cavaliers.

Come up and buckle your hat:

"We felt LeBron James was delayed!"

This made Cavaliers general manager Jimmy Paxson look shocked, as if he had seen a ghost.

He really didn't know how the Goodman Brothers could come up with these words.

It seems that since the selection of LeBron James, they have been cooperating with the "ESPN King", right?

From the publicity before he entered the team, including his playing in the summer league, the Cavaliers even called the entire bench to "study with the prince". How can rookies of other teams get this kind of treatment?
Just like this, it was still delayed!
Do you two have a heart?

The Goodman brothers are not guilty at all: "We feel that you have not trusted us to the greatest extent. If you had trusted us, you would not have traded Ricky Davis until now. You know, LeBron has always been a team player, he's always played with his teammates, let me tell you this, man, LeBron hasn't shown everything Half of the strength!"

Jimmy Paxson resisted the urge to roll his eyes. To be able to say this, either the Goodman Brothers are idiots, or the Goodman Brothers treat him as an idiot.

Judging from their contact so many times, he felt that the Goodman Brothers were more likely to treat him as a fool. He intentionally or unintentionally said: "Woody's agent should have never asked the team to send anyone Whoever made the deal!"

There was a touch of sarcasm in these words.

There are also implication:
We didn't give up Woody in the first place because this situation happened now.

Besides, Woody performed so well in the Heat, there is no such requirement, why do you LeBron James?

No wonder Jimmy Paxson was so annoyed.

You must know that the Cavaliers had already sent away Andre Miller, who won the "Assist King" in the third year of entering the league, in order to be bad, and now they are sending away Ricky Davis... Then you Brown James will have no helpers at that time, do you have to blame me for not signing you well!
Cleveland is a small place. It is not easy to become an "assistant leader", and it is not easy to have a player who averages 20 points per game. They are all sent away. Can you LeBron James win the championship alone?
Or do you want to become the next "OK" combination with Big Z!

Perhaps also aware of Jimmy Paxson's dissatisfaction, the Goodman brothers changed their attitude immediately, and Aaron Goodman's tone suddenly eased: "Dude, I also understand your concerns, Woody's performance is very good, We also admit this, but we all know the reason why LeBron James finally defeated Woody in the draft. He has excellent ball-handling ability, which is incomparable to Woody! This also determines the quality of a player. Isn't the upper limit?"

Jimmy Paxson was silent. He had to admit that the Goodman Brothers were right about this.

Even now, the reason why the outside world has not completely turned against them is that they are still in the growth stage, unless Woody wins the championship in advance as a core player, proving that he can win the championship with him as the cornerstone.

Otherwise, no matter how good he is now, LeBron James' future is still worth looking forward to!

Seeing that his words moved Jimmy Paxson, Aaron Goodman continued: "We have been consistent on this point until now, so why not be more thorough? Our goals are actually the same, let LeBron James is playing at the height he should be and making this team a success under his leadership! He has the potential, just need some sacrifices?"

"Success, it's all like this..."

"You say yes, General Manager Jimmy Paxson!"

When Jimmy Paxson was silent for about ten seconds with a strong and affirmative rhetorical question, he took a sharp sip of the cigarette he didn't know when he lit, and wanted to say something else.

Aaron Goodman spoke first: "It's decided like this, Jimmy, trade Ricky Davis and give LeBron a bigger stage!"
