Legend of Tomorrow

As soon as the news of O'Neal's joining was announced, fans online applauded. It doesn't matter how strong he is, as long as he teams up with Guo Xu, it will be full of excitement, and the sidelines will definitely be lively in the new season.

The Suns' third signing was a five-year, 20 million contract extension for power forward Haslem.

This offer is acceptable to both parties. Haslem has the strength and cooperates very well with his teammates, but his statistics last season were not good and his playing time was short, so he could only sign this kind of contract.

There was quite a bit of controversy with the Suns' fourth pick. Brian gave up on McGrady, who wanted to grab his leg, and signed Guo Xu's college teammate Maurice Peterson with a minimum salary. Looking at last season's data, the two are not at the same level at all.

McGrady played 38 games last season, averaging 30.6 minutes per game, scoring 13.2 points, 4 rebounds and 4.3 assists, but his shooting percentage was only 38.7%.

Peterson received a full mid-level contract and had a peak of 16.8 points, 4.6 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.3 steals. He also avoided the embarrassment of being scored by Kobe Bryant for 81 points at the Raptors' home court. But he doesn't have any personal honors. He has made it to the playoffs three times and was only eliminated in the first round.

He has played for the Raptors and Bobcats. Last season, he averaged 4.4 points, 2 rebounds and 0.4 assists per game. His only advantage was that he shot 38.8% from three-point range. His offensive ability with the ball has completely degraded, and the only means of scoring is catching and shooting. His three-point shooting percentage is relatively stable, between 35% and 40% every season, but has never reached 40%.

Peterson would be satisfied if he could win a championship ring before retiring. Next season is his best chance. Of course, he is not completely useless. He works hard on the defensive end and does not occupy the ball on the offensive end. If the team encounters injuries, he can go up and play.

McGrady was willing to join the Suns for a veteran's minimum salary of 1 million, but Bryan still refused.

The Suns are full of stars and do not need to rely on McGrady to increase their popularity. He may not be willing to be a marginalized person. When the time comes, he will sleepily express his dissatisfaction. A group of fans will say that the Suns have destroyed their once invincible idol, and the gain outweighs the loss.

As for performance on the court, the Suns don't lack McGrady's pull-up mid-range shots, so they need a substitute who is willing to defend seriously.

The Suns also extended the contract of Gerald Green, nicknamed Little Eddie, for 2 years and 3 million.

The nine-finger dunk king wanted to get a big contract, but when he entered the free market, no one took notice. His golf IQ is not high, he only knows how to fight, and he had no ball to play with before joining the Suns. Green was a marginal substitute for the Suns last season, averaging only 1.8 points in 4.3 minutes per game in the playoffs.

Green's choice is quite correct. Since he can't get a big contract by joining other teams, he might as well stay with the Suns.

At least playing in a run-and-gun system is more comfortable.

In the Salt Lake City Summer League, Jeremy Lin and Hassan Whiteside performed very well, and Bryan kept them both.

Hassan signed a four-year contract based on first-round rookie standards, while Jeremy Lin signed a 1+1 contract with a team option for the second year.

Both like to play pick-and-roll offenses. Jeremy Lin is good at breaking through with the ball. Hassan is fast and good at cutting, catching and dunking, and can also rush for offensive rebounds.

Steve Kerr led the team in 5 summer league games as coach. Jeremy Lin averaged 23.5 minutes per game, contributed 12.7 points, 3.7 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 1.4 steals. He shot 54.4% from the field and 46.7% from three-point range. However, He took relatively few shots, averaging only 1 goal per game.

Hassan was even stronger, averaging a double-double of 12 points, 15.7 rebounds and 3.7 blocks per game. In the third game, he grabbed 23 rebounds and blocked 7 shots.

Regardless of his level of golf quotient, Hassan's physical fitness is enviable. His wingspan is the longest among the 2010 rookies, his fat content is only 5.5%, and his athletic talent is amazing. His tall and thin body ensures his speed and jumping ability, which is why he often blocks shots on the court.

His weaknesses are equally obvious. He likes to jump too much, is easily knocked away by his opponents, and cannot control the number of fouls he commits. In low-level games, he can perform wonderfully with his body, and it will definitely not be possible to enter the NBA.

Even so, Hassan is surprising, because The Great Oden's performance in the summer league was no better than him, and he was the top pick, and Hassan almost fell out of the first round.

Bryan has gained experience in drafting. If he has this kind of physically invincible and technically rubbish big man in the future, he will still pick him if he falls to a low pick. After training, he will be an excellent blue-collar player.

At the end of July, the Suns' 14-man lineup for the new season was confirmed, and no big names were signed in the end.

Center: Marc Gasol, Marcin Gortat, Shaquille O'Neal.

Power forwards: Udonis Haslem, Serge Ibaka, Hassan Whiteside.

Small Forwards: Jason Richardson, Grant Hill, Gerald Green.

Shooting guards: Brandon Roy, Maurice Peterson.

Point guard: Guo Xu, Jeremy Lin, Goran Dragic.

The Suns don't need too many people at the shooting guard position, because except for Guo Xu, the other players on the team are over 190cm tall, and the two heavy point guards can serve as shooting guards.

Guo Xu called each of his teammates to chat and told them the skills and training directions that needed to be improved.

For Hassan, who has a mental problem, this is an encouragement and will make him more confident. He began to imagine that in the new season he could pick and roll like Stoudemire and then cut in the air, receiving a pass from Guo Xu and scoring easily.

Jeremy Lin, who planned to practice more during the holidays, was also very happy. Guo Xu asked him to practice three-pointers, and he worked hard and got it right.

At the end of July, the filming of the movie Teddy Bear started.

Jason Statham has completed the dubbing of Teddy, and the bear's animation will lip-sync to the tone of his voice.

The crew filmed Rosie's scene first, and she didn't have much plot, just a little more foreshadowing than the original version. She had a heart-to-heart talk with Teddy, which made Teddy change his mind and stop ruining his friend's relationship.

These scenes were shot in two and a half days, and no acting skills were required. Rosie just needed to be able to read her lines smoothly. In order to help her perform well, Statham also came to act as a co-star, and he will be eliminated when the film is released.

Just as Guo Xu planned, Rosie and Statham saw each other and became friends as soon as they met. They are both British, and their hometowns are not far away. Rosie came to the United States at a young age and was looking for a supporter.

This is really a moment when a fellow villager meets a fellow villager and brings tears to his eyes.

After finishing his guest role, Statham started driving Rosie to the set of Transformers and often visited the set. It was natural for the two of them to fall in love.

Daddario also started working, first as the heroine of Teddy Bear, and immediately after filming Armageddon.

After Avatar was released, it triggered a 3D craze, and the box office of Chinese movies soared. Making this disaster movie a guaranteed box office. Moreover, Dwayne The Rock Johnson's price is very cheap, which saves costs for actors.

John Wick 2 is also about to start filming, with Amber Heard continuing to star. This time Guo Xu only made a few suggestions. The script is written by a screenwriter. It will focus on action scenes, and it is best to add some conspiracy. trick.

Guo Xu will compose another theme song for this movie, and he already has an idea.

Megan hasn't been in a leading role for more than a year, and she's not in a hurry to accept a film. She finds that her vision is really incomparable with Guo Xu's.

The movie Prince of Persia: The Blade of Time that Guo Xu asked her to reject was released at the end of May this year. It was a hit at the box office and received good reviews, and Jake Gyllenhaal was devastated. At that time, Megan had a big quarrel with Guo Xu over this matter, and now she is very embarrassed.

It is also difficult for Guo Xu to find a movie that can compete for the Oscar for Best Actress. Not to mention Megan, even Theron doesn't know what movie to choose to star in. It will be difficult for an actress to get a movie once her net worth increases.

Ellen Page, who had previously been nominated for Best Actress, even had to star in the very brainless comedy Superheroes, which also included Liv Tyler... ()
