Chapter 919 Barea Leaving
During the Seattle SuperSonics' championship parade, Yeas's speech had a huge impact.
If the result of the championship between the Seattle SuperSonics and the Heat had a great impact on the fan base, then Yee's words in the Seattle SuperSonics' championship speech had a considerable impact on the professional field.
For example, the star coaches and management of various NBA teams.
From the way Yees praised Seattle from top to bottom in his championship speech, almost everyone saw Yees' ambitions in the Seattle SuperSonics.
This is to win people's hearts and set goals again, not only for the team, but also for his teammates.
For example, Durant will become the best small forward in the NBA in the future.
For example, Rondo will become one of the best point guards in the NBA in the future.
For example, Milicic, Milicic should become the benchmark for NBA insiders, an all-powerful inside player.
For example, Millsap, Yeas said directly, no matter what others think, in his mind, Millsap is an All-Star player!
Even James Harden, yes, said that this guy will shock the entire NBA in the future.
Damn it, a small substitute player, the most shocking thing is just one more Ginobili. Can it reach the standard of shocking the world?
You want to say that Ginobili shocked the world, but maybe Ginobili himself is embarrassed to say that he was shocked.
No matter how great the international achievements are, the NBA's achievements must at least reach V to be considered shocking to the world, right?
At least now Ginobili has no regular season games or playoff games, and his current situation is also quite bad. He is being touted by the Spurs and Ginobili. The Spurs have recently been packing Ginobili and Parker. Not a rumor, but a fact.
Even Presti, general manager of the Seattle SuperSonics, has a trade request from the Spurs on his desk.
Parker + Ginobili for Gasol, Ibaka and Harden.
Of course, after seeing this trade application, Presti rejected it immediately.
A year ago, this would have been very attractive.
But now, the Sonics are targeting the Dynasty!
Having already won two championships, the next goal is of course the dynasty!
In the history of the NBA, there are only a handful of NBA teams that can become dynasty teams. The Celtics, Lakers, and Bulls are just three of them.
The Sonics have a chance to be next.
Only a fool would break up his own championship team.
In this summer's free market, the Seattle SuperSonics' goal is not to trade existing players, but to keep their championship team!
if you can,
Presti will not trade any players from the Seattle SuperSonics.
In short, Yeas's championship speech showed the Seattle SuperSonics' ambitions to the world.
But the Seattle SuperSonics ambitions definitely didn’t start with Yee’s speech, but started long before that.
So Yeas's speech will not change the plan within the Sonics.
What has changed is only the players of other teams and the mental views of other teams.
"dynasty!"
"Holy City!"
"hateful!"
James and Wade, who are on vacation in Los Angeles, don't look very good now.
Especially James.
Ye's speech during the championship parade was the most uncomfortable for him.
The purpose of coming to the Heat is to win a championship, establish his own dynasty and holy city, and establish his era of LeBron James rule.
But now, a ruler has indeed appeared in the NBA, and the next ruler is about to appear, but this ruler is not him, but yes!
Although he has been very bearish on such things, he is ready to focus on improving his strength this summer, and by the way, he is urging the Heat to also improve the team's strength.
But no matter how down-to-earth he is, it is still impossible to be completely down-to-earth about such a thing.
That was the dynasty and holy capital that he had always longed for!
Now yes has finally set off, and what about him?
It hasn’t even started yet!
"LeBron, Mr. Riley is already working hard to improve the Heat's strength. We will definitely beat the Seattle SuperSonics next season!"
"Yes, now it's just a step forward. As long as you don't reach the end, as long as you fail once, you will go back to the starting point. On this road, it's not about who goes far, but who can go all the way to the end!"
Wade's words made the not-so-good look on James' face slightly improve.
Wade's words are true. On this road, it's not about who can go the farthest, but who can reach the end.
You won two championships in a row, but the last championship fell in the finals, so you need to start over!
Therefore, for the Heat, for him, as long as they block yes next season, then it will be fine.
There is no need to care whether Ye Si has won two championships now.
As long as Ye Si can never win three consecutive championships, he will not be able to establish a dynasty or a holy capital!
Therefore, he still needs to improve his strength now. He and Wade need to improve their three-point shooting ability, and the team must also improve its overall strength.
O'Neal Jr. and Grant Hill are preparing to leave this season. Grant Hill is completely disappointed and feels that he is destined to miss the championship.
Go to the Suns. The Suns won't win the championship in the second year.
Come to the Heat, the strongest player in the history of the Heat can't win a championship.
Where else could he go?
Supersonic?
Let’s not talk about whether the Supersonic Speed is stable or not. Even if the Supersonic Speed is really stable, will it still be stable if he is gone?
The failure of this year's finals hit Grant Hill the hardest among the Heat players.
It made him feel like he was a bad luck person.
If it weren't for bad luck, it would be hard to explain why his career was so bumpy and unlucky.
In the end, this famous NBA gentleman thought about it and decided not to harm other teams.
The Suns and Heat have already been cheated, and there is no need for him to go to the SuperSonics to cheat the SuperSonics or go to the Lakers, Spurs, or other teams to cheat other people.
With Hill's reputation in the NBA, he is welcome to join any team if he is willing.
It's just that he himself is really heartbroken and has given up completely. Like Barkley and his friend Chris Webber, he is ready to work in the media industry to use his remaining energy.
And what about O'Neal Jr.?
O'Neal Jr., like Marbury, was unhappy with him.
It's just that O'Neal has given up tens of millions of annual salary for the championship, so his opposition to himself is not as strong as Marbury's. Marbury has not sacrificed anything, and the NBA championship is not that attractive to him. Now he is in the CBA. King, it would be great to win the CBA championship and V.
Immediately after the Heat and SuperSonics lost in the finals, Marbury showed off his CBA championship and Finals V trophy. What this meant was very, very obvious.
O'Neal Jr. doesn't believe in him, and he doesn't believe that the Heat can win the championship, but he can't go to the SuperSonics. The SuperSonics are very strong inside. He has to compete with Gasol and others. Don't want to be a mascot.
Fortunately, if the Heat don't stay, there are still many strong teams in the East that can be embraced.
When the Heat signed O'Neal Jr., the two parties also had an agreement. As long as O'Neal Jr. is willing, the Heat must terminate the remaining contract with him.
Now that the team is missing Hill and O'Neal, two strong points on the bench, the Heat's strength has dropped a lot, but the Heat still have salary space, and the team also has many valuable players, Pat Riley There is enough room for maneuver.
For example, the Suns and Spurs, which have made it clear this summer that they will rebuild, have many high-quality players.
However, the Heat are keeping an eye on these high-quality players, and other teams are also keeping an eye on them. It’s hard to say whether the Heat can grab them.
Pat Riley robbed the Bulls with him last season, which made Pat Riley's reputation in the league's management circles not very good.
He has a high status, but not many people are willing to do business with him. Even if they do business, they want to rob him. After all, you look so ugly when you eat the bull, why can't we look bad on you?
From this aspect, he and Pat Riley did indeed go too far last season, and the Bulls were so miserable that they were all bald.
Jerry West is also a very high-status general manager, but Jerry West is completely different. People will not guard against him, but rush to do business with him...
In short, even after the finals, James feels that his heart attack has no signs of improvement.
I even feel more and more heartbroken.
No one is worried, whether it's the three-pointer between him and Wade, Pat Riley or the team.
Last year, when he formed the Big Five with high spirits, he never thought that he and his team would encounter such huge difficulties in just one year.
The NBA season has always been very, very intensive.
The end of the finals means the beginning of the new season.
Even Seattle's general manager Presti was already preparing for the team's draft before the finals were over.
The new NBA season started at the end of the finals. Ye Si's championship speech made the already smoke-filled preparations for the new season even more smoke-filled.
And Ye Si, after the team's championship parade, naturally needs to join this battlefield.
Several core players of the Seattle SuperSonics, Milicic returned to his home country with the championship trophy.
As the pride of Serbia, this country that has been having a miserable life recently is looking forward to Milicic like stars and moon.
Durant, on the other hand, took his wife, children and Beasley to China to start his new trip to China.
Durant is now the second most popular star of yes Sports. As a newly signed star of yes Sports, Beasley is not low in popularity in the United States, but in China, he still needs someone to guide him.
As for Rondo...
Every day, I stare at a bunch of newspapers across the United States to see his ranking in history, smiling happily.
He has no interest in team building and seems to have no ambition at all.
If the system hadn't shown that Rondo's current personal mission was still 'I want to be the boss', Ye Si would have almost been deceived by his teammate's acting skills.
In his championship speech in Seattle, Leafs made his ambitions public.
Next season, he is heading for the dynasty.
It is not easy to build your own dynasty in the NBA.
Perhaps for many people, the Heat are the strongest opponent of the Seattle SuperSonics and the strongest team in the NBA.
but……
In fact, some teams in the West are even stronger...
For example, Ye Si feels that the Mavericks are the strongest team he has encountered in this year's playoffs.
In terms of hard power, the Mavericks' hard power is not worthy of the Heat, but this team is as powerful as a supernatural being.
Nowitzki almost taught them how to behave as a team.
In fact, Nowitzki has actually taught them how to behave as a team.
If he hadn't used his cards to deal with Nowitzki, the outcome of that series would have been really hard to say.
Therefore, if the Seattle SuperSonics wants to maintain its results and complete its dynasty mission, it must not only retain the team's useful players, but also improve its lineup.
The Mavericks, Lakers, Grizzlies, these teams are all improving.
These teams may be more difficult for Leafs to beat than the Heat.
James and Wade are strong, but now they are more of a flawed team. Many teams in the West are strong without loopholes, which is completely different.
However, Yes is currently involved in the Sonics' offseason construction.
But the construction of supersonic speed is not that easy.
Many teams come to Seattle to make fun of them.
For example, Popovich's one traded Parker and Ginobili for Harden, Ibaka and Gasol.
Another example is that the Milwaukee Bucks hope to use the draft rights to select Thabeet in exchange for Milicic and so on.
Thabeet is indeed a player that fits his aesthetic very well and is indeed very attractive to him.
But the team already has Durant and Ibaka, and there is no shortage of people to take over for him.
What's more, next season is not for training. Next season will be different from previous seasons.
Next season, it's time for him and his team to reap victory!
The Sonics want to improve on their already good strength, but this operation is not easy.
What's more...
Yeas was busy working with Nelson and Presti on the draft, trades, and free market player evaluations.
JJ Barea, who had not yet started his vacation, opened the door of Presti's general manager's office.
Barea wants to leave.
Seeing the reluctant but determined Barea on his face, Presti frowned and Old Nelson sighed.
Yesi looked at Barea deeply.
Yesi knew that as long as he was willing to say those words, Barea would definitely be willing to stay.
but……
He couldn't say that.
It was difficult for Ye Si to say those words that were extremely selfish to JJ Barea.
He can't keep Barea in the Seattle SuperSonics when he definitely wants to keep James Harden...
When Barea left, the smile on his face was one of reluctance and relief.
"Yes, goodbye."
"Seattle, bye."
