Reborn NBA's Strongest Talent

Chapter 330 330. Swapping Jerseys
On March 3, the game between the Thunder and the Jazz began.

With the combination of Mitchell and Gobert this year, the Jazz successfully brought the team to fifth in the Western Conference, and the gap with the top four is also very small.

Especially after the Thunder defeated the Trail Blazers, the Jazz is in the midst of a winning streak and may surpass the Blazers to enter the top four at any time.

Mitchell in the second grade can bring the team to such a level, he is really very talented.

In addition to talent, the role players that the Jazz have been digging in the free market have also performed well.

Mitchell averaged 25 points per game, Ingles also scored 17 points per game, and Gobert only averaged 15 points per game. The Jazz seems to be Mitchell's core style of play, but the civilian team basketball style of play has been well played in the team.

The Thunder's role players are really not as good as their opponents.

Including Rose and Anthony, two players who can be called veterans.

The seemingly disparate game really produced a result of disparity in strength.

109:121, the Jazz took the Thunder lightly.

The Thunder almost fell to eighth in the Western Conference because of this loss.

On the 13th, the Thunder ushered in a challenge from the Nets at home.

The Nets currently have no stars at all, and are a real civilian team. Dinwiddie is already the leader of the team, although he averaged only 19.6 points and 7.2 assists per game.

However, the Nets is not winning, but waiting for superstars to join in the offseason, so it is another good friend who sends warmth.

The Thunder simply won the home game and stabilized their ranking.

102:117，李茶24投13中拿下了37分6篮板3助攻。

On the 14th, the Thunder played back-to-back away games against the Pacers.

After the All-Star Game, the number of back-to-back games for many teams increased accordingly.

Such a game arrangement will put a lot of load on the players' bodies, but the league's arrangement was decided early on, and there is no way to change it. All teams are very uncomfortable.

After playing more intense games, it is a test for all team players to face the intensity of the playoffs. This is also the source of many players getting injured one by one in the playoffs.

However, if it is more than glass attributes, Oladipo must be considered a fierce player.

Although Oladipo can still average more than 22 points per game in the Pacers, he is already an absolute core position among the civilian team Pacers, and Sabonis can also gain a foothold in the team, but Oladipo's stop-and-go state still failed to bring much change to the Pacers.

Last season, with full of enthusiasm, the Pacers were able to reach the tiebreaker with James. Without Oladipo this season, the team's record quickly dropped.

In the game against the Thunder, although the Thunder suffered a lot in terms of physical strength, the Pacers also gave up Oladipo.

The Thunder still won.

109:102，李茶22投11中拿到31分5篮板2助攻。

On the 16th, the Thunder played against the Warriors for the third time this season, at home.

Although the team resisted bravely, and Li Cha also adjusted his shots to fight the opponent with all his strength instead of competing in practice, the Warriors are indeed the strongest team right now, and the Thunder still lost the game in the end.

This year's duel with the Warriors was 1 win and 2 losses. Only three games were played between the two teams in the regular season.

Although Westbrook was present to watch the game, the outcome will not change just because one person is off the court.

125:114, the Warriors have fully secured their No. [-] position in the Western Conference.

On the 18th, the Thunder continued to sit at home against the Heat.

Wade's Last Dance.

This is also the last time the Thunder played against Wade.

The outcome of the game doesn't matter.

The Heat's main force now only has players like Whiteside, Adebayor, and Dragic.

Whiteside is a complete basket center, which is not suitable in the small ball era, and Allen can also compete with him. Whether it is interfering with the offense at the basket or protecting rebounds, Allen has already done a good job.

Dragic's current level is almost the same as that of Rose. Such a player relies on state and experience to play. In contrast, Rose's basic salary is much more cost-effective.

The way the Heat play is also very tough. Even though the team's players have not been outstanding in the past few years, they are still a united team thanks to the training of the champion coach.

Signing Wade back this year has also raised the team's upper limit a little.

Although Wade is the last season, the retirement season, his performance is still in the upper reaches of the team.

In terms of game skills, Wade is much better than Dragic. Dragic was introduced as Wade's successor back then. As a result, after so many years, Dragic's growth is not as good as Wade's regression.

Wade's coming off the bench brought some troubles to the Thunder, but under Li Cha's matchup defense, Wade didn't have many offensive opportunities, and he couldn't lead the team to a reversal.

In the end, the Heat still lost the game.

106:117, the Thunder won again.

李茶25投13中得到33分3篮板4助攻。

At the end of the game, Wade walked around the field to pay tribute to the away audience.

Although it is the Thunder's home court, Wade is also the idol of a generation of fans. The audience also gave them full respect and warm applause to Wade, wishing him a happy retirement life.

Li Cha also stepped forward to congratulate Wade.

The guests are still on the field, the host can't just leave.

Wade also scored 20 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists in this game.

Coming off the bench, this performance is already very good.And it's still the Heat's scoring leader today.

"Davin, happy retirement!" Li Cha stepped forward to give him a hug.

Wade also readily accepted, and held out his hand to Li Cha.

Li Cha is a Chinese player, and Wade has studied etiquette carefully.

"Thank you, Li!" Wade couldn't help but give Li Cha another hug while holding hands.

Li Cha knew that what Wade thanked was not the congratulations for today's game, but his selection in the All-Star Game.

Li Cha was the first to choose Wade as a substitute player. Regardless of whether it was because of James Wade's connection or not, this respect was enough for Wade to think that Li Cha was a smart and humane player.

And in the game, he also communicated with Malone to play for 17 minutes, although he didn't score a double in the end.

But that's because he had to reproduce the James Way connection, wasting a lot of offensive opportunities, and really had to score points by himself. How could Wade, who has played so many games in the All-Star Game, not know how to score?

Compared with Nowitzki's last All-Star, Wade received full respect, all because of Li Cha as the captain.

If Li Cha hadn't set the tone and had sufficient communication with the coach, Wade estimated that he would just show his face like Nowitzki and be done.

Of course, there is an old friend and good brother James in the team, so it should be better.

But in the end, I still have to thank Li Cha.

"From then on, the alliance lost one Flash, and one more businessman, Mr. Wei." Li Cha said jokingly.

"Master Wei?" Wade was confused, what is that?
"Pfft..." Li Cha almost slapped himself, and he was blunt. What he said was Huaxia's rhetoric, and Wade's surname is not Wei. "Sorry, there is an extra Mr. Wade."

Wade had already figured out Li Cha's teasing.

After getting so much salary, every star will invest a lot of business for himself to ensure that he can still live comfortably after retirement, and even become a boss.

Wade lightly punched Li Cha, "Come on, brother, let's exchange jerseys, I have a thought in the future."

After Wade's The Last Dance performance this year, there will be at least one jersey swap with one of the opponents' admired players.

Originally, the Thunder team Wade planned to change jerseys with George, but George never showed up after being injured, and there was no jersey exchange in the last game.

Even though Li Cha's performance was already phenomenal, Wade never thought about exchanging with Li Cha.

But this time, whether it was Li Cha's 91-point performance in front of him or the respect he gave himself in the All-Star Game, Wade really felt that Li Cha is a very good player and a friend worthy of in-depth association.

That's why he proposed to exchange jerseys with Li Cha.

Of course, Li Cha felt that this was an honor for him.

Wade is also one of the players I like very much. Although he is not an idol, Wade has always influenced a generation of fans, especially his lightning breakthrough and misty layup, which were simply one of the most popular skills on the field.

The two took off their sweat-soaked jerseys and exchanged with each other.

A few photographers ran over quickly and frantically took pictures of the two of them.

The two also opened the jerseys and held them in front of them, revealing the numbers and surnames on the back. The photographers also quickly recorded this historic moment.

"Thank you, Li!" Wade reached out to shake Li Cha's hand again.

Li Cha also held Wade tightly, "I will put it in a picture frame and hang it on the wall when I go back."

What Li Cha said was not a joke, the retired autumn clothes worn by Wade would definitely sell for a good price if he kept them for more than ten years, although he would not be short of money at that time.

"Davien! You didn't exchange jerseys with me!" Anthony also came over.

Wade and Anthony were drafted in the same year, and both were the leaders of the 03 Platinum Generation, but Wade was the first player of the 03 Generation to become the FMVP.

"Cameron, can you still play? I think you can retire too." Wade didn't give Anthony any face.

"No! I'm not as old as you, I can still play, and I still have my own pursuit!" Anthony walked up to hug Wade, and the eyes between the two were full of traces of time.

"Haha..." Hugging each other, Wade and Anthony laughed wantonly.

on the stage they love.
