At the post-match press conference, Joe Johnson, who became the focus, still had a cold expression in the interview, but he changed his normal behavior and said a lot and felt a lot.

Only then did the teammates realize that this guy could speak, but he didn't think so much about it.

In Joe Johnson's opinion, he was selected as an All-Star this season and had a 50+10 game. He had no ambition to become a superstar. He was only one high salary long appointment to be successful next.

His mother taught him since childhood not to talk to strangers casually, to stay away from all dangerous things, and not to be arrogant. Over time, his personality eventually became like this. He was always low-key and humble, not changed by other people's attitudes, and even seemed a little cold and withdrawn.

He never yells, he doesn't order others to do anything, in a sense, he lacks leadership temperament...

When the reporter asked him how he got to this point today, Joe Johnson thanked his mother in particular.

"My mother is a nurse in a mental hospital. One night the patient attacked her and she was slightly injured. I was very sad at the time and didn't want her to work at risk. But if she didn't work, it would be difficult for the family to live. Then I swear that I won't let her get hurt any more. I want to become a professional player, make a lot of money, and let my mother leave the hell mental hospital!"

Life is like climbing a mountain. The most important thing is to set a height for yourself first. If you only set your life goal halfway up the mountain, then you will never be able to reach the top of the mountain.

According to statistics, 34% of the NBA black players come from poor families, and Joe Johnson is among them. It is much more difficult for him to enter the NBA than the 66% of the middle or upper class players.

Iverson, LeBron, Joe Johnson and other players from the bottom have achieved great success and become top figures in the league. The hard work, blood and tears they have put in, the difficulties they have overcome and the temptations they have overcome are far better than the wealthy family conditions, and the starting line is more worthy of people's admiration than those who are ahead of them.

Joe Johnson's motivation is money. He is average in talent, but he insists on hard training. Even on weekends when he goes to school, he stays in the arena to practice. He firmly believes that as long as he perseveres, he will definitely succeed.

Hard work pays off. As long as you are willing to work hard, you will get rewards in any industry. Even if you play games, you can play better than others if you are addicted.

However, it is difficult for Joe Johnson to stay in the Suns because of this. He will want to be a core team with a weak team. Such teams will definitely give more money. After a big contract is over, he may also sign a second high-paying long-term contract.

His mentality is different from his previous life, because he already has a championship ring and has no regrets in his career.

Joe Johnson thanked his teammates and coaches, and thanked Guo Xu the most. "He taught me a lot of things. He is a great leader. As long as his teammates ask him for advice, no matter who he is, he will tell the secret of his success, and we have all made progress."

He said this without any intention and gave the Sun a good advertisement.

Teammates and coaches also praised Joe Johnson, unanimously saying that he deserves the All-Star title.

Especially Marion is most convinced of this. The two often fight one-on-one in the team. He is getting more and more difficult to defend. His opponent is improving, but he relies on his body to play basketball and earn his money.

Marion breathed a sigh of relief when he knew that Joe Johnson wanted to leave. This season, Sir's tactical status in the team has surpassed him. If Joe Johnson continues to fight like this, he may be the fourth leader next year. People go to high places and water flows to low places. No one can stand his position declining year by year.

Guo Xu said in an interview: "My luck has always been very good. I joined the Lakers as soon as I entered the league and then joined the Suns. Every time I have a group of outstanding teammates around me, so I have achieved amazing results. I know that many fans like me because of this, and many people compare me with Jordan, but I really cannot do without the support of my teammates. These results belong to everyone."

The reporter asked: "What do you think of Joe Johnson?"

"On the offensive end, he can do anything, shoot, break through, assist. He can make other teammates better, always make the right choices, and he won't attack with bad opportunities. He can create three threats on the court. He will definitely be selected as the All-Star in the future."

D'Antoni said: "The Suns have many great players, and everyone has to share the ball rights. Just look at the data. People don't understand how good Joe is. He is already one of the best swingers in the league."

Now that Joe Johnson is being picked up, it is impossible for Summer Sun to renew his contract at a lower price.

Brian Colangelo was not angry. He thought it was not cost-effective to renew Joe Johnson's maximum salary. The previous contract was a premium. Just looking at the data and its role in the Suns, Joe Johnson is a role player.

When Guo Xu was about to help Joe Johnson brush data, he greeted Brian in advance. The two were friends and there was nothing they could not say.

Brian thought about signing first and then changing, but Guo Xu refused, because if a team was willing to give Joe Johnson a maximum salary, the contract was too big. If a high-paid player from the opponent would definitely be used as a bargaining chip, which would lock the Suns' future salary space.

It is even more impossible to rebuild the team to use high picks or multiple draft picks as bargaining chips. In this way, the Suns would rather pick Joe Johnson up and get together and part. This is just like the Lakers treated Guo Xu back then, knowing that he could not be kept, but they would not deliberately suppress his data.

The salary space left by the Sun can easily sign a middle-class swinger in the summer to replace the vacancy that Joe Johnson left. There is never a shortage of swingers in the free market, only insiders.

Even if you don't sign in the free market, the Sun's swinger is not weak.

Josh Howard has made progress this season and can be the second ball-holding attack point; Bale is a 3D player; Ariza is still guarding the water dispenser now. He usually has good training performance, but his shooting is not good enough, so he has no chance to play except garbage time.

Guo Xu is a reborn person. As long as he has the right to speak in the Suns, he can get potential through signings or trading. There are too many new stars who are suitable for the system and can pick up bargains.

In addition, the Suns had two draft picks in the summer of 2005, and it would not be too bad to choose two new players. The quality of this rookie is also very high.

Joe Johnson scored high scores and other impacts. After the game, there were signs of revival on the Internet. They finally grabbed some of Guo Xu's black spots, saying that he was overrated by data and assists.

The gangsters have long believed that the Suns have a good record not because of Guo Xu, but because the team's lineup is too strong. It's not that it's even better if you change the star to lead the team. Now, Guo Xu admits that his teammates are powerful in interviews, and it's a solid impression.

Of course, this "truth" is not recognized by the public. What the black pots get online is contempt and ridicule. A group of "Guomi" use Guo Xu's record of joining the former Suns as an example, and Joe Johnson's previous data as an example, saying that Sir, Nene, Howard and others are all selected rookies, which makes people unable to refute.

The more Guo Xu promotes his teammates, the more he can guarantee his popularity. Most people think he is modest. Even a neutral fan thinks that this person is very sincere and will not take all the credit on him.

Winning is the credit of the stars, and losing teammates take the blame is annoying.
