The strongest bishop in the NBA

Chapter 423



Chapter 423

Faced with such a situation, Wang Xiao had nothing to do.

In fact, this kind of possible targeting has been established a long time ago. In order to vent his anger on Jeremy Lin, Wang Xiao deliberately suppressed the playing time of other players when he was still the head coach of the Eastern Conference All-Stars, and used Jeremy Lin Curry and others to collect statistics.

Now Wang Xiao has also been blacklisted because of this incident. Unless he personally promises not to mess up, it is impossible to serve as the coach of the All-Star Game.

For the time being, Wang Xiao took note of the all-star account. He is not a magnanimous person. It is impossible for his disciples to be treated as nothing when they were bullied so blatantly. It would not be too late to avenge this revenge until the Olympics.

……

The All-Star Game ended with the West defeating the East 167-156.

Kevin Durant won the All-Star MVP. In the whole game, Durant scored 41 points, 9 rebounds and 3 assists.

It may be because the rumors of the recent transaction put Durant under a lot of pressure. The boos and voices of the Blazers fans at home made him a little irritable and eager to prove himself.

After the All-Star weekend, the Bucks and Trail Blazers both issued statements soon.

The Bucks sent guard Victor Oladipo, forward Khris Middleton plus first-round picks for the next two years, and got All-Star forward Kevin Durant from the Trail Blazers!

Although the news had already been known, the moment the deal was actually concluded, it still aroused great repercussions in the league.

Unlike another time and space when Durant joined Chaoyong, after the deal was concluded, Durant did not encounter too many doubts. After all, although the Bucks are currently the team with the best record in the league, there are not many People think this is a super strong team, and they don't think the Bucks have the hope of winning this season.

Or it can be said that after the Bucks ushered in Durant, they really had the capital to compete for the championship.

This is fundamentally different from Durant joining the 73-win Warriors and embarking on the most difficult road.

Except for the local media in Portland, most of the media generally believe that if Durant can win the championship under the leadership of Wang Xiao, then his historical status will be improved qualitatively, and even with the increase in the number of championships, Durant has a chance to surpass James and Bird to become the number one small forward in history!

Of course, this is just speculation. The Bucks' acquisition of Durant is just a favorite to win the championship.

Some media commented on this transaction and gave a win-win evaluation.

The Bucks got Durant, the team's upper limit and lower limit have been greatly improved, and they have become the favorites to win the championship.

Although the Trail Blazers lost Durant, they traded Durant for two high-quality potential stocks, Oladipo and Middleton, and also got two first-round picks. The final ranking of the round is still a bargaining chip after all, and the level and potential shown by Oladipo and Middleton in the Bucks are of value to be tapped.

In recent years, the Blazers have not been as good as each year. Except for Durant and Aldridge, there are no players worthy of training in the team.

Now that Oladipo and Middleton are obtained at the same time, although it is impossible to rely on these two to return to the favorites, it is not difficult to maintain their position in the Western Conference.

……

Durant came to the team to report on February 2, two days after the end of the All-Star weekend.

After a series of physical examinations in accordance with the rules, the Bucks held a press conference for Durant.

At the press conference, Durant seemed a little excited, and he was outspoken in the interview.

"Joining the Bucks is a new beginning and a new challenge for me. I think I have embarked on the most difficult path. I left the Trail Blazers in order to win, which made me stand on a cliff. Edge and nowhere to go, I don't have any choice but to win a championship."

As for whether he has the confidence to lead the Bucks to win the championship, Durant is full of confidence.

"The Bucks are a very good team. They are one of the teams with the best record in the league. I am confident that I will soon integrate into the team system and make contributions to the team. Coach Wang Xiao is one of the best players in the league. One of the best coaches, I have always wanted to work with him, and now I finally got my wish, I believe we will win a championship."

Durant's press conference, as the head coach of the team, of course Wang Xiao also attended.

Naturally, the reporter would not miss the opportunity to ask Wang Xiao.

"Coach Wang Xiao, what kind of player do you think Durant is?"

Wang Xiao thought for a while, and then replied with a smile: "If the game comes to the last moment and my team is behind by 1 point, and I am asked to choose a player to make the last shot among all the players in the NBA, I will choose Durant .”

"He is a natural scorer. He harvests the opponent's life like a god of death in the game. With him, the Bucks will be even more powerful, and victory will become easier and easier."

Durant was delighted to hear it, but he didn't expect Wang Xiao to have such a high opinion of him, it was almost like going to heaven!

grim Reaper!

This is Durant's nickname given to him by the media after he scored consecutive points in the final moments of the finals and ended the game with a winning three-pointer in front of James, but now he was called out by Wang Xiao in advance.

"So do you think the Bucks with Durant can win a championship this season?"

Wang Xiao smiled lightly: "Who knows? Anything like this is possible."

"How many championships do you think the Big Three combination of Durant + Thompson + Antetokounmpo can win in the future?"

Another reporter asked.

"You're wrong." Wang Xiao shook his head and said, "It's not Durant + Thompson + Antetokounmpo. The Bucks now have Durant + Thompson + Antetokounmpo + Embiid. Plus Jokic's Big Five!"

Big Five?Who are you blinded by?

The reporter looked confused and couldn't help complaining in his heart.

Embiid is reimbursed for the season and can't play at all. Even if he has been reimbursed for two consecutive seasons, he cannot become a giant in a short time even if he has extraordinary talent.

As for Jokic, he has averaged 16 points, 11 rebounds and 4.2 assists per game so far this season. Although his performance is good, it is a bit too much to be called a giant.

However, the reporter did not argue with Wang Xiao, but asked: "Then what do you think of the strength of the Bucks' five giants? How many championships can they win in the future?"

This time Wang Xiao didn't keep a low profile. "I am confident that by next season, the strength of the Bucks' five giants will not be inferior to the Wizards at their peak. If the team can keep these five players at the same time, at least there will be three consecutive championships."
