Chapter 234 The Summer Comes Finally (Part [-])

Chapter 2: The End of Summer

The Los Angeles people once again won the final O'Brien Cup, and the Celtics fled the city of angels with exhaustion and loss, without another glance.

The official team of the Lakers had already prepared for the championship ceremony. When the whistle sounded at the end of the game, the staff of the Lakers had already set up the podium, and the lights of the audience were uniformly dimmed.

In the pitch-black Staples, there was only a bright spot of light left on the court. Kobe grinned, holding the golden trophy in both hands, and hugged his good friend Pau Gasol, his face full of satisfaction feel.

From today onwards, he has surpassed Shaquille O'Neal, and no one will accuse him of being inferior to O'Neal anymore. Even facing the god of basketball, Michael Jordan, he is only one championship ring away!

It can be said that he is already the player with the most historical status among active players. Even the Spurs' Stone Buddha Duncan only won four championship rings, which is one step away from him.

At this moment, Kobe Bryant truly stood at the pinnacle of the league, and his two consecutive championships left many fans who said Kobe was old speechless.

This season, the Cleveland Cavaliers have the best record in the league. James is far ahead in the MVP rankings.

This once made many Jamies freeze up, thinking that it was time for LeBron James to ascend to the throne, but he did not expect that in the playoffs, the situation and style of painting have undergone tremendous changes.

The Cleveland Cavaliers, which people had high hopes for, were swept away by the Big Three of the Celtics. Instead, the defending champion Los Angeles Lakers had the last laugh. Kobe once again became the biggest winner of this year!

After the final championship of the 09-10 season was decided, the 30 teams in the league also started their preparations for the new season. The game still has to go on, and no one will miss the next season!

The summer of this year is turbulent, and it can be described as the free market with the largest lineup in the past ten years. Many big-name players will test the free market at this time.

The Mavericks' MVP core Dirk Nowitzki will jump out of the last year of his contract to test the free market.

In Boston, two of the Big Three will test the free market, with Ray Allen as a free agent and Paul Pierce opting out of the final year of his contract to test the free market.

According to reliable sources, the Bostonians still want to maintain the lineup of the Big Three, so as to hit the championship again, but how they retain Ray Allen and Pierce will be a big problem.

In the round of the finals that ended not long ago, Ray Allen broke out completely in the second round. In the second game of the series, three-pointers rained like rain, scoring 8 three-pointers in a single game, 7 of which were The three-point half-time score, this record surpassed Jordan and Pippen, broke the league finals half-time and single-game three-pointer records in one fell swoop, and reached the peak of history.

This made many fans in the league who accused Ray Allen of being a pseudo-giant dumbfounded. Ray Allen is undoubtedly the killer Ray. His ability to kill games has not been lost. At critical moments, he is still strong!

It was also because of that game that the management of the Boston Celtics had a stronger idea of ​​renewing Ray Allen.

The undercurrent in the free market is unpredictable, and the managers of each team are walking on thin ice, carefully screening every piece of news from the outside world.

This year's free market will undoubtedly change the structure of the league. Not to mention the superstar players of the 03 platinum generation, but Dirk Nowitzki, Jermaine O'Neal, boxing champion Tyson Chandler, Stoudemire, David Lee, Kevin Durant, etc. , Every player has more or less influence on every team in the league, and the butterfly effect behind this is too far-reaching.

On the contrary, Minnesota is very quiet. There is no news, and the city is still as quiet as ever.

This made many people with a keen sense of smell in the league aware that something was wrong. As a team that broke into the Western Conference semifinals last season, the Minnesota Timberwolves should have the strongest willingness to reinforce. The problems they exposed last season were very serious. The front line is not strong enough, and it is okay against the Dallas Mavericks. Once it faces the offensive Phoenix Suns, it will be completely at a disadvantage.

There is still a lot of room for the Timberwolves' salary space. They can sign many powerful stars in this year's free market and further upgrade the lineup. People are a little unpredictable.

Under the silence, Minnesota is particularly concerned about the trial training of rookie players, and has arranged a lot of rookie trial training, which makes many basketball media people secretly laugh.

This year is recognized as a small year in the draft, and the Timberwolves do not have a high-ranking pick. Could it be that they are counting on starting from the middle and late stages of the first round?

You must know that in a pile of sand and gravel, the possibility of choosing the treasure from the sea is too small, it is almost like gambling luck!

Li Shihao didn't pay too much attention to these things. He is a player. He has just passed his rookie season. He still avoids things like meddling in team affairs. Moreover, the most important thing for him right now is to improve his own strength.

In this league, it still depends on the strength on the court to speak!

Li Shihao firmly believed in this point!

The Celtics' series is also over, Ray Allen arrived as scheduled, and the small team for summer training is completely organized.

They flew to Charlotte that night to train at a private training center there.

Charlotte is located in the largest city in North Carolina. The basketball atmosphere there is indeed very strong. As the place where the god of basketball started, many famous players have come out here, and the basketball training here is also world-renowned.

During the training period, Li Shihao automatically blocked the news from the outside world and began to concentrate on practicing.

In this regard, Ray Allen gave Li Shihao and Curry a lot of help. As one of the superstars of the 96 golden generation, Jun Zilei's skills are naturally extremely solid.

Many fans watching the Celtics have the impression that Ray Allen is only a three-point shooter. In fact, Ray Allen has a lot of real skills, and he sacrificed the most among the Big Three.

Ray Allen's ability to shoot, shoot and pass is extremely comprehensive, especially the emergency stop jumper technique, which is so experienced and fierce. Relying on the unexpected take-off after the breakthrough and the lightning-like speed of the jumper, he is steady and ruthless. , The lethality is huge.

Moreover, Ray Allen's ability to finish at the basket is also good. He quickly breaks through the opponent's player, and the layup efficiency after reaching the basket is extremely high, and he often scores like a bag.

On the contrary, Li Shihao and Curry benefited a lot from the joint training this time.
