Chapter 444: A Sad Wade(1/2)
Is Jordan really humble to Rick Sander or not?
This has now become Rashomon.
The only people in the world who know the inside story are Chen Xiao, Jordan and Rick Sand.
Chen Xiao definitely won't say how uneasy Jordan was for Morrison.
Jordan and Rick Sander each talked their own words, and the final result could only be that the whole world would not know who to believe.
Finally, everyone reached a consensus.
If Morrison's achievements in the future are higher than Roy and Aldridge, then Jordan must be humble. He just for his own sake, he forced himself to look down on Morrison.
If Roy and Aldridge achieve higher achievements than Morrison in the future, it must be that Jordan is not humble. Even if he is humble, he will not be humble. After all, you can't be humble for a worse player, right?
So, this year's draft show has a very interesting story.
Just like four years ago, Chen Xiao and Xiao Si bet on who will achieve higher success ten years later.
Now, basically, Roy, Aldridge and Morrison bet on who will achieve better in the future.
After this draft, Chen Xiao called the three new players who joined the team and expressed their welcome to Roy, Aldridge and Danny Gibson respectively. He also congratulated the three on becoming NBA players and looked forward to the three who can have a pleasant career in Charlotte.
All three of them were very excited to receive the blessings and welcome from Chen Xiao, the number one NBA player.
Even Roy, who has a little facial paralysis, is full of expectations for joining the Charlotte Bobcat.
After all, the Bobcats are really a place for rookies in the extraordinary times.
The boss here is a selfless boss recognized by the NBA and the winner of the NBA Best Teammate Award.
Apart from the boss, basically no one is indispensable here.
Even Zach Randolph and Chris Paul are not indispensable.
In the playoffs last season, Randolph had a long time playing as a substitute.
This means that this is a team that completely serves Chen Xiao. What kind of players Chen Xiao needs can get opportunities.
Moreover, after last season, the whole world knew that the team coached by Jordan had a very interesting rule, that is, the team's weekly single-handed runner-up will get a fixed starting position.
This still gives players a fair chance of competition.
So, the Bobcats are a very friendly team for young players.
There are no rules and regulations here, there are no coaching tyrants like Popovich. Here, young players can be themselves as much as possible.
Facing such a team, who can't like it?
To be honest, although Louis Williams and Monta Alice both wanted to leave themselves, they were quite reluctant to leave.
The same goes for Brache.
Although Brache is looking forward to playing the starting lineup with the Wizards, leaving the Bobcats with a group that still makes Brache very reluctant to leave.
After welcoming the team's three newcomers, Chen Xiao officially signed a five-year maximum salary contract with the Bobcats when the free market opened on July 1, a 4+1 5-year 76 million contract.
According to the new labor-management agreement, this is the largest contract that a rookie can sign after ending his rookie.
Among the 2002 rookies, the only players who won the largest contract such as Chen Xiao, Wade and Ron Howard.
Why is there no Yao?
Yao Yao originally had a maximum salary signing for pre-signing last year, but after getting the FMVP, Yao Yao took the initiative to cut his salary.
According to Yao, he was so moved.
He has already won the FMVP in the finals, and he doesn't want his salary to be the same as Wade.
He wants to show the world that Wade is the leader of the Heat, and he is Wade's second leader.
I have to say that Dayao is really open-minded.
Of course, Wade is also very bright.
No wonder Pat Riley resigned after these two people were together.
Pat Riley resigned and left the Heat even though there was a reason why the Nets' five-front lineup was too tempting.
At the same time, some Heat are now a solid player.
The alliance between Yao Ming and Wade has become the team's largest force.
As a tyrant, Pat Riley clearly felt that he was becoming more and more like a rubber stamp in his position as president.
When a player's rubber stamp, this is not something Pat Riley is willing to do.
Because his apprentice Spolstra can do this, there is no need for him to do it.
Since you can no longer walk on the road of management, then pick up the coach's dream, and accept the invitation from the Nets' Five Fronts.
It has to be said that there is a big reason why Pat Riley left the Heat and Wade and Yao Ming's Qinse and the sound of the music.
Yao Ming has a higher commercial value than Wade. He just won the FMVP, and he also proved that he is more suitable to be the Heat's tactical core. In this case, Yao Ming had the opportunity to challenge Wade's position as the boss, and the winner was probably even Yao Ming.
But Yao Ming took the initiative to give in.
This is really something that many people in the NBA can't understand.
Because many people in the NBA think that Yao Ming's FMVP means that the Heat are likely to disband.
Didn't expect it.
Wade and Yao Ming were still closely linked together.
When Wade and Yao Ming showed such strong strength in the finals, if these two people don’t part, the pressure on others is really great.
After signing with the Bobcats, Chen Xiao ignored the team's affairs.
Because this year's free market is not a big year, the free market is Peja.
And Peja is not the target of the Bobcats.
So during this offseason, the Bobcats' main task is to train new players.
That is, the summer league.
Jordan will bring Bynum, Granger, Jalait Jack, Ilyasova, Gott, CJ Myers, Amir Johnson, Roy, Aldridge and Daniel Gibson to play in the summer league.
Chen Xiao, Paul, Randolph and Barnes do not need to play in the summer league.
As the three important rotation players of Louis Williams, Monta Ellis and Brache left, the Bobcats had three good opportunities.
As the boss of the team, Chen Xiao certainly couldn't really go on vacation directly like Xiao Pao and Randolph when playing in the summer league.
Chen Xiao needs to follow the team, and Chen Xiao will travel wherever the team goes.
The first stop of the Bobcats Summer League is the Orlando Summer League, so Chen Xiao brought his baby son to Orlando.
As the "most popular" player in Orlando, Chen Xiao is of course full of "greetings" when he comes here.
In the Orlando Summer League, Chen Xiao also met Wade who came with his baby son.
The Heat are also playing in Orlando's summer league.
The two little guys had a great time having fun.
Chen Xiao and Wade were a little silent throughout the whole process.
Wade was mainly the silence.
Chen Xiao realized that although the general manager had been over for a while, Wade's mood still did not emerge from the atmosphere of the finals.
To be honest, this year's finals are really complicated for Wade.
He and the team won the championship.
But FMVP is not his.
Although he is not a person who values personal honor.
Although Yao Ming did everything very well.
However, as the boss of the team, he led the team to lose two consecutive games, and the second leader led the team to win four consecutive games. If it were you, would you really feel so comfortable?
What's more, Wade has always been a person who is very considerate and strong.
Although he knew that without his own hard work to maintain the score, Yao Ming would not have such a long rest time, and would not have played such a good game, but the number one hero in the finals was Yao Ming, right?
He was led by Yao Ming to win the championship, is that right?
Every time I think of this, Wade always feels that his face is a little inexhaustible.
As a good friend, Chen Xiao knew how despised Wade was.
Because Jordan and Iverson were disdainful of three-pointers, Wade also disdained three-pointers.
But because of this year's finals, Wade finally learned three points.
I have to say that this year's finals have really changed a lot against the players on both the Spurs and the Heat.
For example, on the Spurs, Luo Ge, who has always been on reasonable offense, is now working hard to practice unreasonable offense.
Although Luo Ge's efficiency was high in this final, the output was not enough.
