NBA beast center

Chapter 201 Dadao is already hungry and thirsty

In the Mavericks' current formation, there are still many people that Shouye is familiar with.In addition to his good friend Beau Bois, Silver Horn King, Marion and Dominic Jones, who did not play today but still showed up in a suit, are all his former teammates.

And what makes Shou Ye feel that the NBA is a business is that his big brother in the 76ers last season-"Old Captain" Elton Brand is currently in the Mavericks.

Shou Ye and Brand were inside partners who fought side by side in the Eastern Conference playoffs last season, but after the 76ers decided to completely rebuild during the offseason, not only did he not renew his contract and Iguodala and Vucevic were traded , Brand also left the team.

The old captain left the team in a way that Shou Ye had never seen before. He was neither traded nor fired, nor was he bought out, but was pardoned...

In Shou Ye's impression, the amnesty seems to be aimed at those criminals, and NBA players can also be amnesty.

在7月14日，小牛队赢得竞标，以210万的年薪签下老船长。根据合同规定，76人将会支付给老船长原剩余一年合同中1820万年薪中小牛所支付的210万美元之外的所有薪水。

Shou Ye and the old captain met in Dallas, and both of them are no longer 76ers players.This made both of them a little embarrassed.You must know that half a year ago, they were still playing in the playoffs with one team, but everything has changed now.

The old captain patted Shou Ye on the back with a loving smile: "Tom, I heard that you won the best of the week, the young man is really great!"

Shou Ye felt that the old captain seemed to be getting older after not seeing him for several months, but in fact the veteran was only in his early 30s.I don't know if it was affected by the team change.

The determination of the 76ers to rebuild is really big, and the core framework is basically removed.Trading Iguodala and others in exchange for the Lakers' "Little Shark" Bynum can also be regarded as finding a rebuilding core.

Shou Ye knew that Bynum in his previous life was completely useless after he went to the 76ers, and became a "washing, cutting and blowing".

Out of politeness, Shou Ye hugged Mavericks coach Carlisle and others one by one.He didn't like Carlisle, not least because the latter had always looked down on him.

Before the start of the game, a tribute video was played on the big screen in the American Airlines Center Arena, paying tribute to Timberwolves backup guard Barea.

Shou Ye was not in the tribute video, not even a single shot.

The scene was a bit embarrassing, and Barea also felt awkward. Although his status and role in the Mavericks was much higher than that of Shou Ye, he also played with you for two seasons. It's okay to have two shots.Anyway, he just won the player of the week in the Western Conference, and his popularity is quite hot now. It's too embarrassing to do so.

But the Mavericks just don't give Shou Ye any face, no one cares about it.

Shou Ye still had a smile on his face, but his eyes were already a little cold.It seems that I was right to leave here. This team is full of contempt and indifference towards him from the city where it is located to the team itself.You don't care about me, why should I care about you?

The flame in Shou Ye's heart began to burn, and it had been a long time since he wanted to hurry up the game, come on, Lao Tzu's big sword is already hungry and thirsty!

The game was broadcast live on TNT, and the commentators were the famous commentator Kevin Harlan and former NBA superstar Reggie Miller.

The starting lineups of the two sides are announced. For the Timberwolves, the starting lineups are: Center - Shou Ye, Power Forward - Derek Williams, Small Forward - Andrei Kirilenko, Shooting Guard - Marko Tom Lee, point guard -- Luke Ridnour.

Mavericks starting lineup: Center - Brandon Wright, power forward - Elton Brand, small forward - Jai Crowder, shooting guard - OJ Mayo, point guard —Darren Collison.

A large number of fans came to watch the game today, and many of them really came for Shou Ye.There were fans wearing Shouba's No. 14 jersey when he was with the Mavericks, although there were very few of them.

Barea also saw Shou Ye's cold eyes, and he didn't know what to say.He finally chose not to say anything.This kind of matter cannot be explained clearly in one or two sentences. Basketball matters will be resolved on the court. As for other things, it will be left to the fans and commentators!

Kotobuba and Wright prepare the jump ball near the middle circle, and the game is about to start.

Wright, who graduated from a famous North Carolina school, is 208cm tall, but weighs only about 100kg, which is too thin for an insider.He and Ah Lian are rookies in the same class, and they were also the 8th pick in the first round of the lottery.It's just that after entering the league, he played more and more like a role player, and he was still the kind of role player who had little impact on the game.

The biggest reason why the Mavericks signed him was not that he was strong or easy to use, but - cheap!

At the start of the jump ball, Wright's body is light, and his bounce speed is much better than that of Shouba. He seized the highest point and passed the ball to his teammates.

The Mavericks took the lead and Collison dribbled across half court.

Collison graduated from UCLA and was Love's college teammate.At UCLA, Westbrook also played him as a substitute.It's just that after entering the league, his draft pick was average, and he has been traded for the past two years.

In this year's offseason, he was traded from the Pacers to the Mavericks as a bargaining chip for Mahinmi.

It just so happened that the Mavericks lacked a point guard. He was very lucky and became the starting point guard logically.

Really, sometimes people need a little opportunity. Being traded is not necessarily a bad thing. In the Pacers, with Jiao Zhixi and DJ Augustin, he is at best the third point guard, almost equivalent to the water cooler administrator .

The old captain received the ball in a low position, faced Derek Williams who was smaller than himself, sat back in, and turned over and made a short jump shot!

Shou Ye leaned on Wright and easily received the rebound!

The Timberwolves attacked. After a continuous pass, Derek Williams hit one and missed a running shot!

The old captain rebounds!

The old captain is indeed old, but his size has not shrunk. He may not be as good at playing Derek Williams as he was when he was young, but you can't beat me.

For the Mavericks, OJ Mayo made an emergency stop for a jumper!

Shou Ye closes the board!

Shou Ye rebounds +2!

Looking back, Shou Ye didn't even have a jumper after the pick-and-roll!

Mavs fast break, Collison misses pass...

But looking back, Derek Williams made a back pass and made an out-of-bounds error...

Both sides are almost replicating each other's offense. If you hit the iron, I will also hit the iron, and if you make a mistake, I will make a mistake.

Shou Ye is also a little helpless. After the team lacks Roy as the core of the backcourt, the ability to launch offense in the backcourt has deteriorated a lot. Many cooperations cannot be played, and the ball is in the hands of Derek Williams from time to time. This guy The number of whole lives is even more.
