I am so Accurate

Chapter 566: 2007~2008 season

   Sun Hao’s retirement continues to ferment, and the Lakers that are most affected have also started their offseason operations.

   They chased Vince Carter for the first time.

   This is also a fairly routine operation.

  Because it is not sure when Sun Hao will return, the Lakers want to remain competitive, and Carter is the best choice.

   Soon after the news broke, news broke that Carter was very interested in joining the Lakers.

   This is not surprising.

   Carter has been quite unhappy in New Jersey in recent years, especially his cousin McGrady played in the conference finals every year, and he struggled to reach the conference semifinals.

   People are most afraid of comparison, and then psychological gap.

   Now that he has the opportunity to go to Los Angeles, and he is working with "Big Shark", he is naturally very happy.

   Soon, ESPN broke the news, Carter and the Lakers reached a four-year 61 million contract, the last year of the contract is a player option.

  Before the new version of the labor agreement in 2011, there was no mandatory stipulation on the contract period, but the contract was only four years old, and there were options in the last year, which is very intriguing.

   After getting Carter, the Lakers have completed several transactions and signings.

   They first reached a three-year 22 million contract extension with Posey, and then reached a deal with the Miami Heat to get the "white chocolate" Jason Williams.

   This transaction is also easy to understand.

   Under the premise of signing Carter and Ariza and Hill need to renew, the team has no space and salary to renew Posey.

   This is the biggest return they can receive if they let Percy go for nothing.

  Williams is 32 years old, but this age is not bad for a point guard.

  And the key is that Williams' contract is only one year left, which allows the Lakers to operate flexibly according to future conditions.

   This point can also be seen from the subsequent contract renewal.

   They first reached a 3-year 10 million renewal contract with Ariza, and a 2-year 4 million renewal contract with Zhu Fangyu.

   Then, they renewed Hill with a two-year contract of 20 million yuan, of which the second year was part of the guarantee.

   Hill is 35 years old, this contract is absolutely premium.

   But the purpose of the Lakers is also very clear, to support the salary space, while preparing for Sun Hao's possible comeback.

  This wave of continuous operations still reflects Kupchak's business level.

   After completing these operations, the Lakers' lineup for next season will be:

  Point guards: Jason Williams, Louis Williams, Sun Yue;

  Shooting guards: Carter, Azubuike;

   Small forwards: Ariza, Hill, Zhu Fangyu;

   Power forwards: Millsap, Walker;

   Center: O'Neal, Gortat;

   This lineup, with minor repairs, will still be very competitive in the West next season.

   At the same time, some of the more critical signings and operations in the free market this year.

   Gerald Wallace finally chose to renew the Bobcats. The Bobcats have entered the league for a few years and finally have the first "Elvis".

   After losing Carter, the Nets pursued Lewis of the Sonics.

   Because of the selection of Jeff Green, the Sonics have little desire to keep Lewis.

   The Nets intend to use a first round to reach a deal with the Sonics.

   The Sonics are very interested.

   It’s just that this matter, like Bogdan Bogdanovic’s joining the Bucks in the future, is somewhat reversed.

  Because the key to completing this transaction is not what chips the Nets are willing to put out, but it depends on Lewis' personal wishes.

   In the end, Lewis did not choose the Nets, but the Magic.

   Lewis and the Magic reached a six-year contract worth nearly 100 million yuan.

   "Mr. Billion Yuan" was born like in history.

   In fact, this signing is not just about money. Everyone can see which team is more competitive between the Magic and the Nets.

   But because of Finley's big contract, there is still one year, in order to complete the signing, Finley and a first round, a second round will be sent to the Sonics.

   But even if Finley failed to stay, the lineup of Arenas, Turkoglu, Lewis and Howard will be the first team in the Eastern Conference next season.

   Of course, given the past history, they still have to look at McGrady's state after his comeback. If they meet the Wizards in the playoffs, it will still be difficult for Howard to face Yao Ming.

   Finley, another important figure in this deal, will reach a buyout contract with the Sonics after the deal.

  He will also become the sweet pastry of the free market.

   According to ESPN, the Lakers, Mavericks, Spurs, Wizards, Celtics and other championship teams are expected to compete for the veteran.

   Finley finally chose 5 million to join the Wizards in 2 years.

   McGrady suffered a rupture of the Achilles tendon. This injury depends on his age.

  According to previous reports, because McGrady is a defender, he is not as heavy as an inside line, and coupled with his youth, he is expected to return after an absence of 240 days, which is almost 8 months.

   He was injured in May, and his comeback will be at least January next year.

   This is still the best case. If it is later, it may be after the All-Star Game.

   In other words, Finley can go to the Wizards to start the team for a long time, even if Tracy McGrady returns, he will become the sixth man.

   So for him, the Wizards have the best chance.

   As for some people's saying that returning to the Lakers or something, if Sun Hao did not retire, it would still be possible. Now that Sun Hao retires, this possibility naturally disappears.

   Except for these teams, the other teams are all minor repairs.

   Just like what I said before, Sun Hao’s retirement has stabilized many teams that were supposed to break up this summer.

   It can be foreseen that the next year will be a scene where the world will be divided for a long time and the heroes will compete.

   In the end, no one knows who will be the final winner.

   Then...

half year later.

  After half a season of battle, the league's structure has already had a rough idea.

   The most dazzling performance is the Orlando Magic.

   Lewis's joining has completely expanded the space on the court, and Howard smashed all directions at the basket.

   Arenas also performed further this season. What many people may not have noticed is that this season is actually the contract year of the "General".

   "Poison Contract" for so many years, his goal is definitely to get a long-term maximum salary.

   Motivated by these conditions, the Magic's competitiveness has risen sharply.

   And the Wizards, the biggest nemesis of the Eastern Magic, because McGrady is absent, the competitiveness has obviously dropped by a notch.

  Although Yao Ming's stats are a bit higher than before, Carlisle did not attack Yao Ming as much as in history in order to protect Yao Ming from injury.

   This is a good protection for Yao Ming, but the decline of the Wizards' record is inevitable.

   Let's talk about the Celtics, another team that has received much attention in the East.

   The situation is very similar to that of the Wizards. Garnett's suspension caused the Celtics to suffer a heavy blow.

   After Artest was suspended in history, the Pacers changed from a championship team to a playoff team.

   Garnett is the core of the Celtics offense and defense, and the impact of his absence is even more obvious.

   And the suspension is no better than other players. The players account for the team's salary cap, and the Celtics can't even sign up well.

   What they can do is to sign Kassel, who was bought out by the Nets, and to chase Finley before it failed.

   Correspondingly, the Bulls also took the opportunity to rise suddenly, ranking second in the Eastern Conference after the Magic.

   As analyzed before, the Bulls lineup is reasonable. As Paul's game experience increases, the competitiveness of this team will only increase.

  Look at the western side again.

   The most watched Lakers lose Sun Hao but get Carter. In theory, their strength should not drop too much.

   But the reality is that Carter has not cooperated with a super center before, and his performance is a bit "unacceptable." The data has dropped to the level of 20+5+5.

   What is even more unexpected is the state of O'Neal.

   Anyone who loses weight should know that the process of losing weight is painful, but even more painful moments may come back.

   O'Neal had been clenching his teeth and insisting on the breath that hit the dynasty before.

   Now that the dynasty is complete, his desire has fallen off a cliff, and his weight soon returned.

  Although Carter is excellent, but after being stepped by Bowen, his strength is no longer comparable to the peak, and he is at least one grade behind Sun Hao.

   This also means that O'Neal can no longer paddle like he did when he played with Sun Hao. He has to take on more responsibilities on the court.

   As a result, his rebounding weight and excessive pressure caused him to miss the game due to a toe injury as before.

   In the two contexts, like the Wizards in the East, the Lakers' competitiveness has plummeted.

   The hottest team in the West became the Clippers next door.

   Odom began to lose weight after being traded to the Clippers. He will act as the Clippers' starting small forward in the new season.

   "Left-handed Magician" reappears in the arena, he and Gasol's strike partner all kinds of magical seconds pass, making opponents undefeated.

   In addition to Odom, Bynum in third grade is also growing rapidly.

   The three frontcourts of the Clippers, plus Kobe in the backcourt, look like F4.

   The Clippers are also considered the team most likely to win this season.

   is followed by the Nuggets.

The configuration of the Nuggets has always been top-notch. In the past summer, they selected 3D shooting guard titan Aaron Afflaro in the draft and signed the old Lakers "Big Bird" Anderson. The team is strong. Take it to the next level.

   Especially Afflalo, although as a rookie offensive is not stable, but the defense is hard and good, can well make up for the team's defensive problems after West off the court.

   Although not the most promising team, the Nuggets, like the Mavericks in the 10-11 season in history, have a tendency to become a dark horse.

   Well, I have to mention here. In the 10-11 season, many people will be impressed that the Mavericks have amazed everyone without being optimistic.

   But in fact, the Mavericks ranked third in the Western Conference in the regular season that season. Like the second Lakers, they only won 4 games less than the first Spurs.

The reason why    has been underestimated is also due to his consistent performance in the playoffs in the past.

   In addition to these two teams, the Spurs and Suns also maintain a high level of competition, and they are still competing for the championship.

   This is a team competing for the title from the East and the West.

   As a dark horse, the most dazzling is the Pacers in the East, which set off a youth storm in the league.

   Although Ellis and Granger have some problems with the ball, they can't stop their momentum at all.

   And the Pacers’ play style is a bit like that of the Nuggets. With the defensive line built by Noah, Deng, and Granger, they can defend you and fight back with a fast speed.

   Then the other more anticipated Warriors team is not so lucky.

   As in history, Oden was diagnosed with cartilage damage before playing a game for the Warriors, underwent surgery before the start of the season, and missed the entire rookie season.

   But the good news is that during the surgical treatment, the Warriors team doctor discovered Oden's long and short legs and has planned to design special shoes for Oden after his return.

   From a long-term perspective, the absence of a rookie season is not necessarily a bad thing for Oden.

   Then there is the Trail Blazers.

   Although Gasol was selected in the first round, he was restocked to Europe because of his size.

   The Grizzlies, with Sean Battier as the mainstay, reached a deal with the Trail Blazers and bought Randolph from the Trail Blazers.

   This deal is theoretically a win-win.

   The Trail Blazers have long been righting Aldridge, and with Horford, it is impossible to stay in Randolph, and a forward defensive defender can **** Roy.

   So the Warriors failed to fly because of Oden's season reimbursement, but the Blazers had a visible rise.

   Let’s talk about Randolph. Although he switched to the Grizzlies, he still failed to get rid of the “data brush” because the team’s overall strength was not good.

   The Grizzlies' record also continued to bleed.

   On the bright side, they have the right to draft next season and they can fight for the top pick.

   The words are divided into two ends.

   The NBA regular season is going on as usual. Here Scarlett is recovering well, and the two have started a new pregnancy.

   And different from the last time, this time they are planning to get pregnant.

   One thing that must be mentioned here is the 2008 Olympic Games.

   An important goal set by Sun Hao was to hold a cup at home.

   The goal is more straightforward, which is the Beijing Olympics.

   Although he had led his team to achieve the goal of winning the Olympics in Athens before, the champions at home are obviously different.

   So no matter what the reason is, whether he is playing professional or not, he will definitely participate in this game.

   This also directly affected Sun Hao's pregnancy preparation.

  Being pregnant after the Beijing Olympics is the best option.

   But if he does that, it means that his comeback time is likely to be delayed until 2010.

   Three seasons away from the NBA, which is a bit long for Sun Hao.

   Sun Hao can accept it, but Scarlett can't accept it either.

   At the request of Scarlett, they chose February and March of this year for the pregnancy preparation time.

   That's why they did more preparations this time.

   because they fully understand the concept of pregnancy.

   Pregnancy, the most dangerous time is the first four months of pregnancy, that is, the first sixteen weeks.

   This is the stage of fetal formation. If there is no protection, it is easy to miscarriage.

   This is also the main reason why Sun Hao and Scarlett lost their first child.

   Although they paid attention to it later, it was too late.

   Then there is still a danger in the next three months, because at that time the fetus is close to birth, it is prone to some umbilical cord entanglement, lack of amniotic fluid, and even premature birth.

   So cut the head to the tail, the middle three months are the safest.

   So calculate the time. At this time, if he can successfully prepare for pregnancy, Sun Hao can compete in this year's Olympics.

   This is what Scarlett strongly advocated.

   She really wants to have a child, but she doesn't want Sun Hao to leave the court because of the child.

   This time they have made sufficient preparations and the plan is also going smoothly.

   In mid-February, during the NBA All-Star Weekend, they successfully conceived a child.

   Because they were full of confidence, they also announced the news on social media after they became pregnant.

   At this time, the fans who were paying attention to the NBA were suddenly attracted.

   The paper could not contain the fire. Although Garnett lay down with the gun for a summer, the real reason for Sun Hao's retirement was still known.

After    knew it, most of the fans understood and supported Sun Hao's decision.

  A man who loves his family, how can he not like it!

   So now, after knowing that Scarlett was pregnant again, the fans immediately sent their blessings.

  Including many NBA stars all congratulated on social media.

   Sun Hao, this child, can be regarded as a blessing for trillions of people.

   And a very interesting topic at this time.

   Kobe already has two daughters there. It is very curious whether Sun Hao's first child is a boy or a girl.

   After all, the two people competing on the court can't escape off the court.

   The good news for the fans is that Scarlett faced follow-up questions on social media and frankly said that she would check the child’s gender at the right time.

   The last accidental miscarriage left her without knowing whether the first child she was pregnant was a boy or a girl, so this time she changed her mind.

   You may even say that you don’t believe it. Scarlett’s tweet has caused the stock prices of brands such as Adi and Dove to soar.

   Now that the whole world knows that Sun Hao is pregnant with a child, the return is no longer indefinitely.

   Time came to the end of April in a blink of an eye.

   At this time, Scarlett announced a news on social media.

   I know the gender of their child, he is a boy!

   Sun Hao overpowered Kobe on the basketball court, and “winned” in the matter of giving birth!

   By the end of this year, Sun Hao's first son will be born!

   Moreover, Scarlett is also collecting the Chinese and English names of Sun Hao's son on social media!

If    is selected in the end, she will pay a bonus of 100,000 U.S. dollars and send a pair of Sun Hao's latest signature sneakers! !

   For a while, social media was extremely lively, with various names emerging in endlessly.

   is not only because of money and sneakers, although they are already very popular.

  Because if Sun Hao's son started by himself, it is definitely not one of the happiest things for a fan.

   At this time, the NBA regular season curtain fell.

  The ranking of the East and West Department is finalized.

   In the Eastern Conference, the top eight teams are the Magic, Bulls, Pistons, Celtics, Raptors, Wizards, Pacers, and Heat.

   Here are a few places that fans pay more attention to.

  First, the Pistons renewed Billups in the summer, and then left McDyess. They started a bit slowly, but they exerted strength in the second half and their performance was still strong;

  Second, after Garnett's comeback, the state is still excellent, and the competitiveness of the Celtics in the East still cannot be underestimated;

   Third, O'Neal on the Heat team suffered an injury and his condition declined. Wade said he couldn't help.

Fourth, McGrady is in good condition after his comeback, but the impact of the Achilles tendon injury cannot be avoided, because he injured his right foot, which has little effect on his dry pull, but the impact of the breakthrough is obvious. His dry pull depends on The proportion has increased significantly.

   The first round of the Eastern Conference is: Magic VS Heat, Bulls VS Pacers, Pistons VS Wizards, and Celtics VS Raptors.

  Look at the West again, the top eight in order are: Clippers, Mavericks, Nuggets, Spurs, Suns, Lakers, Hornets, Trailblazers.

   There is also a need to mention the Mavericks team. Last season they had a mediocre record due to running-in problems, but in the second half of this season, they have been getting better and better. They also showed sufficient competitiveness.

  The Western Conference: Clippers VS Trail Blazers, Lone Rangers VS Hornets, Nuggets VS Lakers, Spurs VS Suns.

   Among them, the Nuggets and Lakers met their opponents last season, which is very interesting.

   The playoffs will start soon, and Sun Hao will concentrate on accompany Scarlett at home this time, and the game can only be watched live as he did when watching the draft.

  His concern is naturally the Lakers game.

   The first game of the Lakers was played away.

  Sun Hao watched the whole live broadcast.

   Even if O'Neal is not agile, his flexibility is greatly reduced due to weight rebound, but he can still suppress Camby.

   It’s just that the advantage is much smaller than last season.

   Moreover, Carter's perimeter deterrence is not at the same level as Sun Hao, which makes O'Neal basically in a double-teamed state on the offensive end, with limited space to play.

   In short, without Sun Hao, the Lakers' combat effectiveness has declined significantly.

   To be more specific, you can refer to the Bulls in those two years without Jordan.

   In the first game, the Lakers lost the Nuggets 81-97 by 16 points.

   After watching the game, Sun Hao felt that there was basically no hope for the Lakers to pass the Nuggets.

   He is unavoidable to blame himself.

   But everyone wants to look forward, a team cannot always be at its peak.

   Even if he did not retire, O'Neal's current desire to win makes it difficult for the Lakers to win the championship.

   By the time the four consecutive championships have failed, the fans will not feel much better.

   As a bystander, Sun Hao's mentality is still relatively flat.

   To put it bluntly, no matter what his mentality is now, it will not affect the result.

   Time is fast, and in a blink of an eye, the first rounds of the east and west have all been played.

   The results of several matches.

  Magic (4) VS (2) Heat

Wade averaged 30+5+5 per game in the series, but he couldn’t hold back Howard’s overturning in the interior. "Warcraft" averaged 25+15+4 per game, which proved whether there is a strong interior in this era. Two situations.

   Bull (4) VS (1) Pacer

   The Pacers’ youth storm failed in the playoffs because they could not prevent the Bulls’ offense, and their offensive ability was seriously insufficient. If they want to make a breakthrough, a trade next season is imperative.

   Pistons (4) VS (3) Wizards

McGrady’s injury became more obvious in the playoffs. Previously, opponents could not defend him because his combination of sudden shots was too incomprehensible, but now it is enough to focus on defending his shots, and what’s worse is his defense. The tendon injury too affected his lateral speed.

   The result is that even though Yao Ming averaged 27+12 MVP-level data per game, he couldn't hold on to the large numbers of the Pistons. The Wizards regretted being out of the first round.

   This is also the first time they fell in the first round in recent years.

   Although it is too early for the Wizards to start thinking about the future of the team, Yao Ming should probably plan ahead.

   Celtics (4) VS (2) Raptors

   Talent suppression, nothing to say.

   Clippers (4) VS (0) Trail Blazers

   The trailblazers’ youth army made it to the playoffs, but paid tuition for growth.

   On the Clippers side, even though Bynum was injured and missed the playoffs, they still showed their talents. The gorgeous offense made the commentators exclaimed show.time.

   Lone Ranger (4) VS (1) Hornets

   The strength is crushed, there is nothing to say.

   Spurs (4) VS (1) Sun

   The Suns lost completely this time, and they were unable to break through the playoffs all the year round. The team management has already lost patience with D'Antoni.

   Nuggets (4) VS (1) Lakers

   With Carter's single game of 43 points in G3, the Lakers won a home game, but they didn't have many chances in the entire series.

  Because of taking care of Scarlett, Sun Hao basically didn't pay much attention to the regular season games.

  Especially the Nuggets with little change in lineup.

   But after watching the series with the Lakers, this Nuggets surprised him.

   Especially James' performance is more mature than last year.

   Speaking of last year's playoffs, especially when playing the Lakers, Iverson basically took James away.

   But this year, the situation is reversed.

   Although it doesn't make him think that the Nuggets can win the championship, it definitely has a fight with the Clippers.

   And the key point is that the Nuggets finally passed the O'Neal hurdle. Their No. 1 pick inside line combination will no longer be a disadvantage when facing other teams, but may be an advantage. This will be very important.

   After the first round of the game, the semi-final confrontation between the east and west regions started soon.

   Sun Hao's eyes also shifted from the Lakers to the Nuggets.

   Then, the Nuggets really brought him an accident.

   Let's take a look at the result of the second round.

  Magic (4) VS (3) Celtics

   The results of this group matchup were a bit unexpected.

   But it turns out that without Yao Ming, Howard can really play Ang Pow Solitaire, do whatever he wants, and then do whatever he wants.

   Perkins can't hold back Howard in his prime, let alone those shooters on the outside of the Magic.

   That is the kind that can really shoot people through.

   And the impact of Garnett's suspension was also more obvious in the game. His competitive state was much worse than last year.

   So even though the Celtics showed resilience and dragged the game to the tiebreaker, they eventually lost.

   Bull (4) VS (2) Piston

   Although the Bulls are a lot worse than the Pistons in experience, after the battle with the Celtics last year, the Bulls' ability to withstand pressure has been greatly improved.

   Especially Paul's breakthrough play style restrains the Pistons' defensive system.

   Hamilton and Peja on the outside, and even Yi Jianlian, the Detroit people who pulled the space on the outside are very helpless.

   The Lone Ranger (4) VS (3) Spurs

   Both sides played an epic round of playoffs.

   The Duncan series averaged 25+15 per game, and the opponents had no temper.

   But nowitzki also left the Spurs with nothing to do.

   Especially in the tiebreaker, Nowitzki scored 34 points and scored 5 points at the end of the fourth quarter to kill the game.

   Clippers (3) VS (4) Nuggets

   The Nuggets and Clippers met early.

   In the eyes of most people, the Nuggets will repeat last year's script and be eliminated again.

  The only difference is whether it was taken by Sun Hao or Kobe, or by the Lakers or the Clippers.

   But after the game, the Nuggets won. The James series averaged 35+7+9 per game and played MVP-level performance.

   Barnes can't guard James, and there is no Bynum guard in the inside, the Clippers can't limit James' play at all.

   On the Nuggets' side, West and Afflaro staged a wheel fight against Kobe, and Kobe was exhausted after hitting the back.

   In this way, the final match between the East and the West was also released.

   Eastern Magic VS Bulls, Western Lone Ranger VS Nuggets.

   These four teams are completely new faces.

   Sun Hao's retirement has made this alliance full of infinite possibilities.

   Even the gambling company was a little panicked at this time.

   The old situation is broken, and a new pattern is taking shape.

   One very interesting thing is that before the East and West decided to fight, the league announced the MVP for the 2007~2008 season.

   In the end, Bryant was elected the regular season MVP for the first time in his career with an average of 28.9 points, 6.3 rebounds and 5.6 assists per game.

   Then, the Clippers have been eliminated...

   This is the "Embarrassed MVP brother" together with Nowitzki.

   But from an optimistic point of view, the elimination of the team is already an established fact, and getting the first MVP of his career can be regarded as a comfort.

   This is not entirely bad either.

   After the MVP was awarded, the East-West competition also started soon.

  Magic (4) VS (2) Bull

   On the Eastern Conference finals, the Magic finally won the game by relying on the inside advantage.

   After Sun Hao retired, the instant kill combination also disappeared.

   Then in the east, the combination of "Little Sun Hao" Arenas and "Warcraft" Howard reproduced the power of a combination of inside and outside.

   And judging from the results, they were totally worth it to sign Lewis in the summer.

   Lone Ranger (3) VS (4) Nuggets

   This round of the Western Conference finals was extremely fierce. The Mavericks took a 2-1 lead in the series and were tied with a 3-2 lead.

   But in the end, in the eyes of James' eagerness, the Nuggets still stubbornly tied the score!

   Then, in the tiebreaker, the Nuggets were so powerful that they finally won the series!

  Sun Hao watched the whole live broadcast~www.ltnovel.com~ To be honest, he did not expect this result.

   Because in a sense, this lone ranger team is very close to the classic team in history.

   Facts have proved that human desire can make people burst into unlimited potential.

   And the ability of Big Ben has indeed declined too much, and he can't help James to hit the basket.

   If the big Ben is replaced by Chandler, the Nuggets really may not win.

   But anyway, James led the Nuggets to the historic finals.

   This scene is comparable to the championship he achieved in Cleveland.

  The question now is, can he lead the Nuggets to a championship.

   And speaking of it, James and Howard have played against each other several times in the history of the East.

   Now that history has changed, James came out of the West in a **** battle, and the two met for the first time in their career.

   Magic and Nuggets teams, who can win the final championship, this will be a big question.

   Maybe this time, it depends on how professional fans analyze.
