Chapter 38 Lively transfer period(1/2)

Los Angeles, at the foot of the Hollywood Hills, a private training hall.

Li Ke, who arrived first, had already started sweating profusely. In the next few days, Serena Williams, Xiao Du and Jiba also arrived one after another.

Adding to God's trainer Tim Graver, and shooting coach Rital Schutt, a small summer training camp, was formed immediately.

Li Ke also called Dasheng, Alian and even Dayao.

The answers received varying-

The Great Sage and Alien were a little helpless. This summer, the men's basketball team still has an Asian Championship to play.

The Basketball Association did not recruit Li Ke and Yao, but Da Sheng and Alien could not escape.

Therefore, they were unable to appear in Los Angeles and participate in this small training camp organized by Li Ke.

On the side of Yao, Li Ke talked a few more words and probably learned that Yao Yao was not in good condition.

"What was announced to the public was a minor fracture, which was actually a stress fracture..."

"Did the doctor say how much time it takes to recover?"

"have no idea……"

Yao Yao on the other side of the phone was obviously not very interested. After a while of silence, he suddenly spoke again: "Li Ke, you are right. Inside players cannot gain weight easily."

On the phone, Li Ke sighed secretly.

Queen Mother Dayao realized it later. It was too late to say this now.

There are not many injuries like stress fractures in the NBA.

But once it appears, it is devastating.

The main problem is that the reason why Yao Yao had a stress fracture was because his body could not support his weight.

The fracture can recover, but after recovery, it will be difficult for Yao Yu to return to the fierce competition.

In other words, Yao Yao's NBA career should have basically ended.

Thinking of this, Li Ke suddenly understood why the Rockets wanted to make a move to this year's draft, and even gave Richard Hamilton no matter how hard they were.

Although in the end, the Rockets did not compete with the Bobcats with more bargaining chips.

Ah Lian, Dasheng and Yao did not come, but Li Ke's small training camp was still entering.

On the last day of June, Li Ke called Lao Du, and besides Lao Du, Jeff Green, Brooke Lopez, and Robin Lopez were also here. Even the Thunder's rookie this year, Gerald Henderson, came here without any invitation.

Li Ke's small training camp immediately looked a bit like a new generation of small gathering, although it seemed that something was missing.

"Kevin, why didn't Lagarondo come?"

The core of the Thunder is now very clear, which is the three cores of Du Xiao and Rondoga Brooke Lopez.

Daluo came and brought Xiaoluo. Even rookie Gerald Henderson also came, but Rondo was missing. Li Ke asked this question.

But Xiao Du seemed to be taken for granted and asked directly: "Didn't Stephen Curry not come?"

"Stephen? I'll call him now..."

In Li Ke's opinion, Xiao Du's rebellious question sounds a bit like a provocation, and he doesn't like this one.

In front of Xiao Du, Li Ke called Dell Curry.

...

On July 1, the NBA transfer market and free market will open.

At the first moment, the Bobcats officially announced the well-known four-way deal. The Sharks swam back to the West, Stephen Curry officially belonged to the Bobcats, the Trail Blazers got the center Marcus Cambi they wanted, and the Wizards also got the depth of the bench they wanted.

The Charlotte Observer published an article analyzing the deal.

"Shake is leaving, the team chose to fulfill his plan and stopped the loss in time. We saw the addition of Kenyon Martin and Stephen Curry, one represents the present and the other represents the future..."

"Kenyang Martin is a dynamic power forward, his style is similar to DeAndre (Jordan)....”

"Stephen Curry, the super double-energy guard of Davidson Academy, is extremely good at projection. His father is Charlotte legend Dell Curry. He and Sheldon will be the future of the Bobcats..."

Regarding Kenyon Martin, Charlotte Observer's view is that perhaps he is not a strong supporter, but his style is very swaying to the bobcats, and he will become another mentor to the old shark, after Ewing, Jordan Jr.

For Stephen Curry, the Charlotte Observer does not wear any reasonable and objective glasses. The local college star player in Charlotte is just about to brag.

Although the 15-man roster has been filled, the position is uneven and the lack of substitute point guards has made media reporters and expert ball critics clearly understand that the Bobcats will definitely have subsequent operations.

But before the Bobcat's operation appeared, the Nuggets first ignited public opinion this summer-

"A big deal for the four parties, the sharks climb the Denver Plateau!"

"Trade and trade, and the Nuggets receive strong support again!"

"The Heavenly Lord joins, and the Nuggets may form a super five-man group?"

The first news report is the four-party deal between Bobcats, Trail Blazers, Nuggets and Wizards, and the Nuggets got Jared Jack and Old Sharks.

The second news report is another transaction completed by the Nuggets at the same time. Specifically-

The Nuggets gave T.J. Ford (8 million), Nene Hilario (10.52 million) and a first round, and obtained Chauncey Billups (12.1 million) and Sean Bathir (6.45 million) from the Rockets.

Finally, it was the news that Rashid Wallace might join the Nuggets.

In addition to the first transaction that Li Ke already knew, the remaining two operations of the Nuggets, in Li Ke's opinion, were unexpected and not surprising.

After he made the phone call with Yao Dayi, he knew that Billups and Richard Hamilton could both leave the Rockets.

But what he didn't expect was that President Bathir would leave.

Of course, what attracted Li Ke even more attention was the new lineup of the Nuggets-

Point guard: Billups, Jack; shooting guard: Arte, JR Smith; small forward: Guagua, Bathir; power forward: Tianzun; center: Old Shark, Chris Anderson...

"This lineup, the Nuggets are going to make a big splash!"

Although on the surface, this Nuggets has a bit of the Nets' flavor later.

But Li Ke knew that this Nuggets were still very different from that Nets. Guagua was still at its peak, and the Fireplace was still an All-Star point guard. Only Atai, Tianzun and Lao Shark fell.

But no matter how it declined, Lao Shark is also the top center in the league. The only problem is attendance and physical fitness, but the Nuggets also left a Birdman as an alternative.

Atai's defense is also passed. Tianzun's projection and defense are not a big problem to play as a starting power forward.

The substitute Jack and JR also have the strength of over six.

Seriously speaking, this Nuggets already has a championship appearance. Whether they can win the championship depends entirely on George Carl's ability to pinch.

"Richard Hamilton should have left too, right? I wonder where he will?"

Li Ke believed that history was inertia. Billups went around in circles and went to the Nuggets. McGrady did not go around in circles and put on the Pistons jerseys directly, all of which were the case.

...

It was only two days before July, and the weather became hotter.

The Los Angeles airport landed, Dell Curry called a car, followed by excited Seth Curry and Stephen Curry with a black face.

"Don't have a dark face, Stephen, you have to understand that Sheldon is the boss of the Bobcats."

“…”

"In the NBA, the boss can do too many things. If you are in this state, you will suffer."

“…”

"I think Sheldon is pretty good to you, why are you so unfriendly to him?"

Stephen Curry, who had been silent, finally couldn't help it: "In an NCAA preseason game three years ago, he kept torturing me and insulting me. He was not a good person."

Torture, insult? Dell Curry was stunned, but he quickly reacted: "Trump talk?"

"Uh, it's considered trash talk, but he's too much."

Dell Curry shook his head, he was able to confirm:

"If it's trash talk, it's not Sheldon's problem. Stephen, you have to understand that the showdown on the basketball court is like this. In my era, my opponents were even more over-the-top..."

Dell Curry began to recall the past, and Stephen Curry couldn't listen.

Although, he had to admit that his father's words successfully alleviated his hostility towards Li Ke.

After arriving at the destination and stopping outside the training hall, the Curry brothers had already heard the shouts in the training hall.

"Run and run, don't step on horseback like a woman!"

Tim Graver's voice was the biggest, who made him the only two trainer in this training hall?

The door of the training hall was pushed open, and Tim Graver just turned his head slightly, then continued to urge Xiao Du, Serena Williams, Jiba and others to run around.

Compared to a few days ago, there are more Wesley Matthews and Tagibson in this training hall.

They will stay here until the start of the Summer League. Of course, Stephen Curry, who arrived at this moment, will only stay until the start of the Summer League.

Curry arrived. Under Ritalshut's guidance, Li Ke, who was shooting training, stopped, walked over, and stretched out his right hand: "Welcome to join!"

Stephen Curry was still a stinky face, but Seth Curry was very excited, staring at her eyes everywhere.
