Chapter 482: shut down

Also, in Lian Dao's opinion, the most suitable player to be a teammate, Clay Thompson finally landed in Golden State, and the "Splash Brothers" completed the fit!

The Spurs also traded George Hill to the Indiana Pacers for Davis Bertans, Kawhi Leonard and Erazem Lobeck, just like in history.

Popovich, the old fox, got his wish in the end, and the rise of the Spurs has officially entered the countdown.

However, unlike history, the Knicks used the 30th pick in the first round to win Jimmy Butler, a little guy who was later ridiculed by fans as "Jordan's illegitimate son".

The Knicks' second-round pick has long been traded away. In this year's second-round pick, except for Isaiah Thomas, who gave everyone a surprise in later generations, there is not much to pay attention to.

[To be honest, I have recently followed up, changed sources, and have many voices for reading aloud, .yeguoyuedu Android and Apple are both available. 】

In this way, Lian Dao and the little senior sister watched the talent show together at the hotel during their trip to Paris.

To be precise, it was Lian Dao who was watching the whole time. The little senior sister had already curled up in Lian Dao's arms and fell asleep before the first round was over.

"Buzz~buzz~buzz~" Not long after the draft was over, Lian Dao's cell phone vibrated.

Lian Dao first put the little senior sister on the bed, then walked out of the bedroom and turned on the phone to check.

An unknown number!

After answering the question, Lian Dao asked, "Who are you?"

"Sickle, I'm Jimmy Butler, I'm really excited to be your teammate!"

Jimmy Butler was so emotional on the other end of the phone that his voice trembled a little.

Lian Dao couldn't help laughing.

"Young man, it's very good. I'm also looking forward to playing with you. I hope you will train well this summer and look forward to your performance in your rookie season!"

In fact, Lian Dao's age was more than a year younger than Butler's, but there was no sense of disobedience when he said such words at this time.

Because strength is always king in the nba, not the so-called seniority.

Whether it is strength or status, Lian Dao is an existence that Jimmy Butler needs to look up to at present.

"Don't worry, sickle, I will definitely train hard! I am so excited to be on your team. When I was in college, I often watched your games. You are so strong, you are my idol!"

Jimmy Butler is still very excited.

But Lian Dao was stunned. Isn't Butler's idol McGrady?

Some of Butler's technical moves in the previous life have some traces of McGrady.

This should be the butterfly effect brought by myself again.

It's also very good, I have gained another little fan.

It feels really good to let Butler be a little fan.

Lian Dao comforted him on the phone, telling him not to be nervous and to train well. At the same time, after asking about his training plan, he gave him the contact information of his personal trainer Chris Brickley.

try{mad1(\'gad2\');}catch(ex){} With the lockout looming, Butler certainly can't use the Knicks' practice implementation, as well as the field.

It just so happened that Chris Brickley was also idle, so find him something to do.

And in the standardized training of Chris Brickley, Butler can also improve more quickly.

This lockout time is too long. If some players can really use it and train to improve, they will definitely be reborn after the start of the new season.

"Sickle, I...I don't have the money to pay for the trainer." Butler said cautiously with some embarrassment.

"Chris Brickley is my personal trainer. He won't charge you for training. You just need to train well and improve your strength. In the new season, I don't want to charge someone who can only be a water cooler keeper. little brother."

Later, Lian Dao called Chris Brickley and told him some basic information about Butler.

After hanging up the phone, Lian Dao was also full of expectations for the new season.

Although they did not get Klay Thompson, the Knicks retained this season's championship lineup. Although there will be people leaving the bench lineup, these can all be supplemented after the free market opens.

And the Knicks, as the defending champion, will be more attractive to some veterans who are chasing the championship.

…

The draft is over. According to the practice of previous years, the next step should be to start the free market.

There are many big fish in the free market this year, such as the super center Yao Ming who is still healthy, Carmelo Anthony and Chris Paul who have been looking for a deal.

And David Lee, Tyson Chandler, Caron Butler, restricted players Marc Gasol, Wilson Chandler, Jeff Green, DeAndre Jordan, David Wayne Sturt, Nick Young, Chuck Hayes…

This year's free market is definitely not inferior to last year's attention. However, due to repeated breakdowns in labor negotiations, the free market has not been able to open.

Although the two sides are currently avoiding a lockout, because the differences between the labor and management on the distribution of benefits are too great, the lockout cannot be avoided at all.

In the United States, as long as interests are involved, it is difficult to regress. This is the American style of action, and interests are always paramount. Unless they are forced to cut their flesh in the end, they will never be the first to compromise.

And so far, some quick-response players have begun to ask their agents to contact overseas teams. The suspension period is too long, and they also want to use this time to earn some extra money.

And there are many players who have contracts in the NBA.

Because they signed an "nba jump-out clause" before signing the contract overseas, which means that when the nba lockout ends and the season starts, they can immediately end the contract and return to play in nba.

This kind of contract with a high degree of freedom is also liked by all players.

After all, the lockout means that during this period, all nba players will not have any salary income. For many players at the bottom who rely on salaries, this is simply a loss of financial resources.

try{mad1(\'gad2\');}catch(ex){} and some people don't take this to heart.

For example: Lian Dao...he is on vacation with his younger sister.

Although he knows the progress of the nba, this kind of environment is not something he can change at all.

In addition, he is currently in the stage of recuperating from his injuries, and he cannot do a lot of training, so he simply uses this time to complete the travel plan promised to the little senior sister.

Recently, however, the "09 Superstar Group" exploded directly.

They've been tossing back and forth between "going overseas to play" and "summer training."

For this reason, this group of people also asked Lian Dao for his opinion, but Lian Dao didn't have a very good opinion about their going overseas to play, but if they want to form a summer training.

Lian Dao can provide them with training teams and training venue facilities.

The training team formed by Lian Dao's personal trainer Reece Brickley only serves Butler, which is a bit extravagant. If they need it, Lian Dao can still help in this regard.

But for those who want to play overseas, Lian Dao also gave advice, that is, you must confirm the "nba jump-out clause". Well worth it.

For some Knicks players' advice, Lian Dao also gave such suggestionsDuring the trip between Lian Dao and the younger sister, Lian Dao's agent team almost exploded the phone calls of these two people.

Especially for some domestic endorsement activities, the organizers have been asking for a clear time.

But the two of them forgot everything during their vacation.

Now, amidst the life-threatening phone calls of the management team, they can only declare that they have ended their vacation life and choose to return to China!

After everything was ready, Lian Dao took the little senior sister and the rehabilitation medical team, and then boarded the plane back to China.

But I don't know if the fans are really so powerful now, they actually learned about Lian Dao's itinerary in advance.

The moment Lian Dao disembarked from the Capital International Airport, the airport was full of people.

Everyone wants to see Lian Dao.

Fortunately, the Capital International Airport has seen this kind of scene many times.

So be prepared!

Lian Dao and his party took the secret passage inside the airport, and they left the airport without anyone noticing.

It's not that Lian Dao doesn't want to meet the fans, but that he is currently in a state of "disabled feet", and he really doesn't want to meet. If there is an accident, it will be a big deal.

However, the crowd waiting for Lian Dao has not dispersed for a long time, they are still waiting for Lian Dao's whereabouts.

In the end, the staff could only tell them the truth, saying that Lian Dao had left the airport.

But the audience at the scene didn't believe it at all. They thought it was the time when the staff turned the tiger away from the mountain.

It wasn't until Lian Dao updated his Weibo and explained to the fans that the fans chose to leave.
