Legend of Tomorrow
Chapter 514 [Passengers expand the army, physical examination of the whole team]
? As a star, it feels uncomfortable to be criticized by a group of people, and it feels equally uncomfortable to be ignored.
Michael Jordan and the Bobcats management he joined felt this way. No one paid attention to them. The newspapers didn't even give them a small page. The establishment of the Bobcats team was not worth mentioning.
Jordan's comeback with the Wizards was very eye-catching and attracted many fans to the arena to watch the game. However, he failed to dominate the court and caused a lot of trouble. After leading the team for two years without making the playoffs, he retired in disgrace. . He has since lost his invincible aura and appeal.
Even though the Bobcats are located in Charlotte, where Jordan's alma mater North Carolina State University is located, everyone doesn't pay attention to this new team, and they all think it will be a bad team.
You should learn to slap someone in the face when you are ignored instead of complaining all day long. Jordan has never been ignored like this since he entered the NBA. He vowed to go all out to help the Bobcats rise quickly and surprise everyone, even though the Bobcats' rapid rise will affect his plans to acquire teams in the future.
The Bobcats have joined the Eastern Conference, and the Hornets will join the Western Conference next season. The Bobcats also participated in an interesting event called Expansion Draft Day.
The rule is that the Bobcats must select at least 14 players in one go that day, with no more than one from each team.
It's not that easy to choose. Each NBA team can protect up to eight players, but there must be at least one player for the Bobcats to choose from. An unrestricted free agent cannot be drafted and is not entitled to protection. Restricted free agents can be drafted, but if the Bobcats do not sign with them, the player will become an unrestricted free agent in the summer, but cannot re-sign with the original team.
If a player with a contract is picked up, the contract will be transferred to the Bobcats, and the Bobcats will pay their salary next season. When a restricted free person is selected, he will directly become an unrestricted free person, but if there is a bird right, the bird right belongs to the Bobcat.
Three of the Suns' rotation players last season were unable to enter the eight-man protection list, Dessaguena-Diop, James Jones, and Steve Blake.
All three of them have special skills and championship experience. Brian Colangelo has been worried about this for a while, worried about the Suns lineup being dismantled, and especially worried about Diop being selected.
As a result, the Bobcats did not select anyone from the Suns. In Jordan's view, these three people all have obvious flaws. The team selected center Okafor and must focus on training. There is no need for a pure blue-collar player like Diop who has no statistics and no offensive ability. . It doesn't matter that Jones has barely played in the game, and Blake is only a second-round pick with poor statistics.
Jordan's vision is really hopeless. Guo Xu was shocked when the Bobcats' final list was announced. It was a group of passers-by, and it was also expensive.
Even the players he can call by name are not strong enough, such as interior man Jahidi White.
A pure blue-collar salary of 5.88 million; Marcus Fizer, the tattooed man with a high draft pick from the Bulls, is a restricted free agent, helping the team to be at the bottom year after year; center Blazek has an annual salary of 1.55 million, and his offense and defense are average; he can only shoot three Kapono and so on...
In the eyes of Guo Xu, a reborn person, these are just a bunch of passers-by.
After laying off some people, the Bobcats signed former All-Star Steve Smith, who was about to retire, in the free market. Guo Xu's favorite opponent was 178CM point guard Brevin Knight and others. The Bobcats also traded two future second-round picks with the Clippers in exchange for Marvin Eli and Eddie House.
Guo Xu felt that if he was allowed to be the owner of the Bobcats, it would be fun to build the team and select people. They would definitely be more reliable than the people currently selected and could quickly complete the rebuilding. The Bobcats selected 14 players and chose Gerald Wallace, who is a marginal player with no data in the Kings.
Jordan's vision is no different from his previous life, and he will definitely not be able to slap the media in the face. The Bobcats can only compete for the No. 1 pick next season.
Entering September, Guo Xu and Megan Fox returned to Phoenix to take a break and prepare to start the new season.
They returned home with their two cats, Steve and Bucky, who were usually taken care of by others and had grown up a lot. Because the owner provides the best food and comfortable accommodation, the two cats are very clingy, lazy, and as fat as balls.
The husky Buddy lives in Megan's parents' house. When he saw Guo Xu, he hid, as if he was afraid of being taken back to the desert again.
In fact, Guo Xu would rather choose a dog leash than take a dog or take it...
After two days of rest, Guo Xu called Suns team doctor Thomas Carter and asked him to help contact the team for a physical examination. All players must undergo a full-body examination.
Guo Xu not only has a good relationship with his teammates in the team, but also has a very good relationship with the team doctor Thomas. He has never been forgotten during team dinners, championship parties, gifts and other things, and the two have become very good friends.
Guo Xu felt that Thomas must be thanked, and the management relied on him very much. This person was really awesome. With him in charge, the Suns had the strongest lineup in the playoffs for two consecutive seasons. Stoudemire and Kukoc suffered serious injuries. They were treated according to his plan and were in good condition after their comeback.
In Guo Xu's previous life, fans knew that the NBA had four major artifacts - Rockets abandoned general, Suns team doctor, Spurs assistant coach, and Thunder rookie!
Thomas is recognized by the NBA medical community as the most powerful one, and is nicknamed The Imperial Doctor. His glorious deeds are simply countless. Many stars such as O'Neal, Stoudemire, Nash, and Hill have been rejuvenated by his wonderful hands after suffering injuries that affected their careers. The most amazing thing is that these people are finished as soon as they leave the Suns, and they will soon retire due to injury.
Everyone is doing a full-body examination. Isn't it a bit of a fuss? Thomas asked with a smile.
Maybe, but I am determined to win the championship in the new season, and I feel it is better to do it. Guo Xu explained with a smile: I only watch the news. Many people say that I don't practice in the summer and have been on vacation. If your condition is affected, and if you live an irregular life, you may get other diseases, what if the crow’s mouth tells you right?”
It's up to you, I'll arrange the hospital.
After confirming the time, the assistant manager called all the players and told them to have a physical examination on the morning of the 8th and then have a dinner at noon.
Everyone was very cooperative and went for the physical examination on time. We invited my girlfriend and family members to have dinner at noon, and played together in the afternoon.
Before the start of training camp, the Suns' new players got to know their seniors through this gathering.
This kind of gathering makes it easier for the rookies to integrate into the team. Guo Xu specially chatted with Ariza and Varejao alone for a while to tell them the future development direction. Ariza should practice three-pointers and strive to become a 3D swingman, while Varejao should try his best to practice high-post mid-range shooting and defense.
A few days later, the physical examination results came out, and everyone was shocked. Someone on the team was really sick, and it was not an injury on the basketball court, but breast cancer.
This unlucky guy was of course Nene. When he got the notice, he was completely stunned and felt like the sky was falling.
Team doctor Thomas immediately told him the good news. It was discovered early and it was not serious. A small surgical section would determine whether it was benign or malignant. With follow-up treatment, it should be fine.
You have to thank Jason for suggesting a full-body examination. If you keep putting it off until you feel uncomfortable, I'm afraid it won't be cured.
Nene immediately came to thank Guo Xu with a gift. Although the team doctor said it was fine, the name cancer was quite scary. Guo Xu comforted him a few words and asked him to relax and go for the operation as soon as possible.
Guo Xu was relieved now. Thomas said it would not affect Nene's regular season play and he would just need to recover for a while after the surgery.
Nene is very important to the team. Last season, the twin-tower combination between him and Stoudemire showed its power in positional battles. Now he will not be reimbursed for the season, and he has also kept one...
