I'm a boss in the NBA

Chapter 636 Antetokounmpo wants to prove himself!

In addition to signing Terry, the Bucks also renewed the team's inside player Plumlee this season.

But not that Mason Plumlee, but Mason's brother, Miles Plumlee.

The new contract is a four-year, $4 million extension.

Plumlee was selected by the Pacers with the 2012th pick in the first round in 26. He sat on the bench in his rookie season and only scored 14 points in 13 games. In 80, he started 79 of 24.6 games, scoring 8.1 points, 7.8 rebounds and 1.1 blocks in [-] minutes per game. Among them, he defended a shot of Cousins ​​​​chasing the big cap, and was selected as the top ten blocks of the season.

However, the next year, Plumlee was no longer in form, and his starting position was also deprived. Halfway through the season, he was sent to the Bucks in a three-way deal between Knight and McAway, and fell back to the bottom again.

好在2015-16赛季，普拉姆利重新得到了基德教练的信任，他在61场比赛里首发14次，14.3分钟的出场时间里可以贡献5.1分3.8个篮板以及0.8个盖帽，投篮命中率达到了生涯新高的60.1%，换算成36分钟数据这赛季场均13分9.6篮板2.1盖帽，生涯36分钟也达到了11.2分10.6篮板和1.8盖帽，效率相当不错。

Due to his fast movement speed and hard work on the defensive end, and having played in the prestigious Duke University for 4 years, Plumlee is deeply loved by Kidd. In fact, in the second half of the year with a small lineup, Plumlee also shot 12 of 8. The performance of scoring 18 points alone.The Bucks are currently short of major generals inside. Monroe, who was signed with a maximum salary last year, was put on the shelf, and Henson, who renewed his contract, was emaciated. So when signing the contract, old Kidd had high hopes for him. Unfortunately, the schedule It was only halfway through the game that I realized that this guy was really not good. He started 32 of 12 games and averaged only 2.6 points per game.

Helpless, it has been abandoned by Kidd now, and it is said that he will be sent away soon.

Sometimes I really want to complain, but Kidd's vision is really bad.

He is a good player because he is a good player. In fact, whether it is as a coach or executing various transactions of the team, Xu Xuan feels that he is not good enough.

Like Paul and Rondo.

Countless people have said that once these two retire, they will almost immediately become the head coach of a certain team, just like Kidd.

In fact, the head coach is not so easy to be.

It seems that they usually steal the coach's limelight when they are on the court, but if they actually let them do it themselves, they will find the difficulty.

In other words, they still have to have a conversion process.

The transition from player to coach.

To put it bluntly, it is the lack of time accumulation.

Someone said again, the young coach is also young, why can the young coach coach the team so well?
You are wrong, the young master learned this, he came here for this, and this is what he studies all day long, how do you compare with him?

Although you are also engaged in this line of work, as I said earlier, players and head coaches are completely two professions, two different professions.

Take Kidd, for example.

When Kidd retired, he was really at the level of thousands of people. He said he wanted a head coach like a champion coach immediately. As a result, the so-called "luxury battleship" that spent so much money in the Nets for two years was simply unbearable. One hit, nothing but bubbles or bubbles.

After coming to the Bucks, the coaching record is actually not very good. Last season was a loss. This season, he first signed a useless Miles Plumlee, and then spent 3000 million to renew his contract. Mirza Teletovic.

And as soon as this deal was concluded, Kidd was about to be sprayed into a fool by angry Bucks fans.
So who is this Teletovic?

Teletovic is a white shooter from Bosnia and Herzegovina. He plays power forward or small forward. He is about to turn 31 years old. Because he joined the NBA late, his actual NBA experience is only four years. On July 2012, 7, he signed with the Nets as a free agent. He has been playing for the Nets for the first three years of his career. The contract is about $11 million for three years.

During the offseason of last season, he signed a one-year contract with the Suns for $550 million. Due to the serious injuries suffered by the Suns and the fact that Morris was in trouble with the team all day long, this low-key and practical shooter shined brilliantly. 12.2 points and 3.8 rebounds.What's even more commendable is that his shooting percentage and three-point shooting percentage have reached career highs respectively, and he is one of the most guaranteed firepower points for the Suns.

Even so, some fans are still frightened by the figure of 3000 million.As soon as this revelation came out, his Twitter message area exploded.Some fans directly exploded regardless of the image, and some fans even greeted Kidd and the Bucks with the American national curse beginning with "F".Some "rational" fans also pointed out: "Please, buddy, this person doesn't exist at all, okay?"

In fact, this may have been influenced by Al Jefferson's three-year, $3 million signing with the Pacers.After all, Jefferson comes across as a low-post monster with defensive abilities, and it doesn't seem like an exaggeration to say that he is the best technical center in the league today.His average annual salary is only 3000 million. How can you get 1000 million?
Just because you used to be Kidd's old subordinate?

It doesn't make sense either!
Of course, if you find a reason for this signing, well, you can think of it this way, Jefferson is almost a year older than Teletovic, and he played 47 games due to injuries last season, Teletovic is amazing The 79 games-this kind of attendance really can't ask for more from white people.Looking at the statistics again, Jefferson's 12 points per game is even lower than that of Teletovic, not to mention that Teletovic has the most in-demand three-point firepower nowadays?

Unfortunately, assumptions are just assumptions.

After Teletovic joined the Bucks, his performance continued to slump.

So far, he has averaged only 5.6 points and 2.3 rebounds per game, which is terribly inefficient.

Perhaps the only thing that can be achieved is the attendance rate. His attendance rate is very high. Compared with other white players who can be broken at the touch of a touch, his attendance rate and health may be the only things he can praise. point
But, that's useless after all, isn't it?

Attendance rate does not mean that he is very good, unless you are Xu Xuan.
Xu Xuan is the only player in the league who can link attendance with efficiency. No one else can do this except him!
The two consecutive transactions ended in dismal, which made the old Kidd's vision of people fall directly to the bottom of the valley.

For now, if it weren't for the discovery of an Antetokounmpo, it is estimated that he would have been fired by now
But how to put it, Kidd still has a brain, he is still helpful to the team.

For example, in order to strengthen the perimeter, the Bucks also made a deal with the Cavaliers this season.

It's a sign-and-trade deal.The Cavaliers sent backup point guard Dellavedova, and they could get a $480 million trade exception from the Bucks, some cash and the rights to sign Albert Mirales.

The Bucks previously offered Dellavedova a four-year, $3850 million contract, which the Cavaliers chose not to match.

Cavaliers general manager David Griffin said: "We wish Della the best in Milwaukee. Della is a very special player on and off the court. His dedication, hard work and other qualities have become Part of our team and a huge contributor to our success. Our coaching staff and players will be forever grateful for his dedication. Whenever he is called upon, he will be ready. We all know he will continue to grow and succeed with the Bucks."

Dellavedova's new contract with the Bucks will not include a team option or a player option.

In the 2014-2015 season, Dellavedova's performance was still good, but last season, Dellavedova didn't play much time.

However, in the 2015-16 season, Dellavedova's statistics set new career highs.As the main backup point guard for the Cavaliers, he played a total of 76 games in the regular season, averaging 24.6 minutes per game, contributing 7.5 points, 2.1 rebounds and 4.4 assists, and his three-point shooting percentage was as high as 41%.

Mirales, 34, was selected by the Toronto Raptors in the 2004 draft, but he has never entered the NBA.Interestingly though, he's already been used as leverage in multiple deals.

For Antetokounmpo, today is not just a regular season, but also an opportunity for him to prove himself!
Even though his reputation is now in full swing, there are still many people who are questioning his ability and his strength.

This is not prejudice.

This is what the league must look at for every "high-ranking young man".

Xu Xuan also came here like this.

In other words, until now, there are still many "questioning voices" in the league, but they are covered by Xu Xuan's light.

"Actually, many people don't know that Brother Antetokounmpo is one year older than Xu Xuan." Ke Fan said, explaining the game.

"In this alliance now, Brother Antetokounmpo, Nongmei and Xu Xuan are unanimously considered to be the leaders in the next five years—ten years." Yang Yi took over the conversation: "Xu Xuan is an outside line, Brother Antetokounmpo and Nongmei It’s an insider. In terms of age, Xu Xuan is indeed the youngest, and Antetokounmpo and Nongmei are both older than him.”

Ke Fan said with a smile: "I remember that the thick eyebrows should be the biggest. He was born in 93, Antetokounmpo was born in 94, and Xu Xuan was born in 95. It just so happened that the three of them also had a class difference. The thick eyebrows entered the league in 12 years. Brother is 13 years old, Xu Xuan is 14 years old."

"It's like a cycle, no, it's more like a succession."

"However, I discovered a very interesting thing. Nongmei was the No. [-] pick, Antetokounmpo was in the first round, and Xu Xuan was in the second round. The draft picks are also decreasing year by year. Do you have to look for them from the losers this year? .” Yang Yi teased.

In fact, at the level of Xu Xuan and Brother Antetokounmpo, you can just smile and not take it seriously.

"But there is one thing to say, from the current point of view, our Xu Xuan is more stable, after all, he has already led the team and proved himself." Ke Fan laughed.

Then you are such a clever little ghost. Yang Yi complained, "Who doesn't know that Xu Xuan is the most powerful now? If it weren't for the old man who also has a hand, I don't know who the boss is now."

Of course, the boss of the league does not mean that one can get it by winning a championship. It needs to have a foundation and time to accumulate.

Otherwise, Curry won many championships in his previous life, but have you heard that Curry replaced the old man and became No.1 in the league?

nonexistent!

The old man is still number one, even in 2120, the old man is still number one!

Antetokounmpo is obviously still young.

From a long distance, Xu Xuan didn't even need to turn his head to feel a scorching gaze at the back of his head.

It was like someone was roasting sweet potatoes with a spotlight.

Xu Xuan turned his head.

Brother Antetokounmpo immediately shook his head unnaturally, and wanted to turn around, but he didn't know what he thought of, so he forcibly moved his gaze over and looked at Xu Xuan.

This expression seemed a bit unwilling to be outdone.

Xu Xuan didn't care, he didn't even care about the burning fighting spirit in Brother Antetokounmpo's eyes, he just nodded in his direction to show his friendliness.

Well!
After all, we will be teammates soon, wouldn't you be nicer?

"."

Seeing Xu Xuan's gaze, Brother Antetokounmpo felt a little embarrassed.

Is it a little bloated?
Standing in front of me was the winner of the league championship. Brother Antetokounmpo moved his throat, his eyes hesitated, but he immediately became firm again.

champion? !

I will have it in the future!
I will also win the championship!
I will stand on the highest peak!

Stand on the highest mountain in the world!

There, only me, and my shadow! ! !

Antetokounmpo is very ambitious!
Or.

It is impossible to get to this point without a big heart!

Those who are willing to be mediocre have already been eliminated halfway.

Those who can sprint here are all ambitious!
The game started.

Bucks home.

Bradley Center.

The venue was already full of spectators.

Fans in Milwaukee naturally support Antetokounmpo. Many people are panting for Antetokounmpo's support jerseys and holding large posters of Antetokounmpo.

The starting rosters of both sides were displayed on the big screen.

Lakers here.

Xu Xuan at position [-], Russell at position [-], Ingram at position [-], Randall at position [-], and Yi Jianlian at position [-].

It can be said to be the full main lineup.

Bucks here.

Matthew Dellavedova at No. [-], Tony Snell at No. [-], Antetokounmpo at No. [-], John Hansen at No. [-], and Thorne Mark at No. [-].

This lineup is high.

Old Kidd's lineup today is very interesting.

Both Brogdon and Middleton were put on the bench, and the starters were all big men.

The shortest Dellavedova has a height of 193, and Tony Snell, who is in the second position, usually plays the third position, and now he is promoted from the third position to the second position.

Needless to say, the rest of Antetokounmpo, Antetokounmpo's official height is 211, but his figure may be more than that. Because this guy seems to be growing taller every year after entering the league.

John Hansen in the fourth position is 211 tall, and center Thorne Mark is 216 tall, a strong man who is seven feet tall.
