NBA: Starting with $20 billion, buying the Knicks

Chapter 215 Li Kaier, the first step in men's basketball enhancement, naturalization!

Chapter : Li Kaier, the first step in men's basketball enhancement, naturalization!

It seems that the Knicks' outside defense is still good. Youth is strength. Harden's take-off height is obviously smoother and faster than Kobe's. Coupled with Beverly and Danny Green's lock defense, Kobe didn't say anything. The body is still very uncomfortable.

The main reason is that he did not make enough preparations. As long as he comes to this arena in his career, it is very easy, whether it is the veteran Alan Houston or the former Marbury and others... Maybe it is because he is getting older, He felt that the perimeter defense he encountered today was the most intense.

James Harden scored 17 points, 6 assists and 2 rebounds. He was also locked up by Kobe for several rounds, but he also had a famous scene, that is, he hit Kobe with his back and succeeded in a fadeaway shot.

Fuck Kobe the Kobe way!
The two have similar playing rhythms as if looking in a mirror, except that the young Harden "jumps" together and looks more energetic, while Kobe belongs to the kind who has reached the peak of experience and rhythm. The goal may not be scored, but being handsome is a matter of life.

Watching Kobe play is like this. He may be an iron king, but his movements will never be deformed by tension and fatigue. Stretching and handsome is the first.

But neither of them is the protagonist tonight. Odom is the protagonist for the Lakers, with 13 points, 11 assists and 9 rebounds. The economic quasi-triple-double is eye-catching. The typical east is not bright and the west is bright. This is the case when Kobe is being taken care of. A striker who can support and control the ball is really fragrant.

Okur was the most stable on the Knicks side. He made 7 of 5 three-pointers and scored 23 points, 7 rebounds and 2 blocks. The Knicks have not been able to increase the score. Yi Jianlian has 9 points and 6 rebounds. Rebounds basically depend on these two, and because Gasol and Bynum can't defend, they still have a lot of opportunities, but they are not all accurate.

But this has nothing to do with Jiang Chao and Max. If you lose, you lose. If you can't beat the regular season, even if you reach the end of the Eastern Conference, you will still be 100% bloody. This is Kobe!
It is impossible for you to guard against Kobe every game like today, and you can encounter him in the state of how to turn on the zone and how to shoot.

All you can do is score more points than them, and the offensive vitality will be built up.

Another point for a defender to hold the ball, another striker who can break through in the low post, or a center forward who can play behind him, this is the final template of Jiang Chao's one-star four-shot!
When the team's record was not good before, Jiang Chao was already thinking about it. Now that the record is not bad, he wants to make changes even more.

Now it is too painful to face the Lakers being suppressed. Since they are all sixth in the Eastern Conference, why not try a change?
What if it succeeds?

Promise the New York fans and the beauties that they will let the Knicks go to the end, and it is time to act.

But what is more uncomfortable is that the Knicks roster is already full. With Eddie Curry and Tim Thomas joining the rotation, the Knicks are full of 15 people, of which Matthews is a two-way contract player.

"So we can't sign in the free market?"

"Yes, and you look down on the remaining players in the free market. You don't even want Marbury's veteran basic salary to vote."

"Haha, yes, can the transaction work?"

"The transaction is OK."

If the roster is full, it can only be traded. For example, they have discussed Eddie Curry, Larry Hughes and Tim Thomas already on the shelf. If they can be exchanged with other teams Words from players who are useful to each other couldn't be better.

The result is that Sean Marks and D'Antoni found that these plug-and-play players are either with high-quality contracts and cannot be balanced, or they are not for sale in the stable rotation of each team.

And if you want to change something not for sale, you will have to bleed.

So the way of trading is also given up, which is why Sean Marks sent scouts to watch the game with Howard tonight, and can only wait for this off-season to catch big fish.

In addition, the group of people on the Knicks shelf is no longer as sought-after as the group at the beginning of the season. The data is average when there are not many opportunities given. Those who exceed expectations are rookies. Any disease will be stained, and what the opponent wants is the peak combat power of Nate and Harrington, not the peak tail combat power of Eddie Curry.

So it's embarrassing, the Knicks have very little room for maneuver in the middle of the season.

The beginning of the season was too swollen, so many useful role players did not compete when the Knicks were in the free market. For example, the two Lakers Odom and Bynum are both good insiders.

Another example is Toronto Raptors big man Jermaine O'Neal, Oklahoma City forward Wilcox, those are very good players.

Of course, the biggest reason at that time was that Jiang Chao really had no money, and he had nothing else to offer. He went bankrupt long ago when he was really all-in.

So Jiang Chao said Max, you should watch first, all around the world is fine, even if you want Rabatel and Haddadi to try out, I will support it, the requirement is a striker or an inside player who can play inside, you must add it up.

"It's best to be the kind of player who doesn't shoot, so that there will be one less person on the opposite perimeter to guard the perimeter."

"Veterans and upcoming rookies are fine. If we can't catch up this season, next season will be okay."

This sentence of not shooting reminded Sean Marks, and Sean Marks clapped his hands:
"Hey, boss, have you forgotten? You were in Los Angeles to inspect the game. When you went to UCLA, there was a prospective freshman who had just come to college to play. I inspected him. He seemed to be able to play inside. He had excellent height and Vision, you seem to know him and greeted him?"

"Are you talking about Kyle??? The essence of human creep, really doesn't shoot very much, you can call him a wave and contact him to participate in the draft this year!"

Jiang Chao clapped his hands, Wang Dahammer, I didn't expect Sean Marks to take the initiative to mention this player, so he must be interested.

Because Jiang Chao's expectations for him are not just from the NBA, maybe the naturalization of the Chinese men's basketball team will also start from his side.

For this very Chinese-looking 18-year-old high school graduate with one-eighth of Chinese blood, Jiang Chao knows it all too well in later generations.

This is a real rhythm monster, the super forward chosen by the Spurs!
Moreover, in later generations, he returned to China to worship his ancestors earlier than Jeremy Lin, and wrote Li Kaier's name on his ancestral home.

Why Sean Marks noticed him was also because Jiang Chao mentioned him at the time, the basketball star Jiang Chao mentioned, so he had to investigate it himself.

After some investigation, I found that it is still wide? ?

Kyle Anderson, born on September 1993, 9 in New Jersey, USA, is 20 meters tall, has a wingspan of 2 meters and weighs 06 kg. He is a small forward on the field.

Anderson is a rare all-round forward player. He has outstanding physical fitness and athletic ability. He can not only fight inside but also have good outside shots, which allows him to score almost anywhere on the field.

Anderson has one-eighth of Chinese blood. His great-grandfather Li Chongxin was a pure Chinese. During World War II, Li Chongxin went to Jamaica to make a living, so he met Anderson's great-grandmother Ajita. After they got married, they gave birth to a daughter named Marian, he is Anderson's grandmother.

Anderson's mother Suzanne grew up in the United States, married and gave birth to Anderson in New Jersey, USA.

Anderson's father once served as the coach of an AAU amateur sports league team. Under the influence of his father, Anderson joined the first basketball training camp in his life when he was three years old, and fell in love with playing basketball since then.

A graduate of St. Anthony High School in New Jersey, Anderson led his team to back-to-back New Jersey state championships and was named state player of the year his senior year.

After that, he actually entered the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) in 2011 and represented UCLA in college basketball.

In the same year, the 19-year-old Anderson went to China with the UCLA men's basketball team to play 3 confrontation games, and successively defeated Qinghua University, Shanghai Jiaotong University and Shanghai Shanghai men's basketball team with big scores.

Among them, Anderson scored a team-high 21 points and 11 rebounds against the Shanghai Men's Basketball Team.

And now the player who just graduated from high school was actually selected in 2014, which is the season when the Spurs won the championship.

At that time, the Spurs were in full swing and got the 30th pick in the first round. Anderson was selected by the San Antonio Spurs with the 1th pick in the first round of the NBA Draft. The two sides signed a 30-year contract worth 4 million US dollars.

Many people don't understand the Spurs' choice, because Kyle Anderson's dynamic talent is very average. He is slower than the center and shorter than the center. He has no absolute height and is a player who plays purely by rhythm.

But it turns out that the Spurs' eyes can't be wrong.

2014-15赛季，安德森代表马刺队出战33场常规赛比赛，场均出场10.8分钟，得到2.2分和2.2个篮板。

In the summer of 2015, Anderson participated in the Summer League on behalf of the Spurs, played 9 games, averaged 19.3 points, 5.8 rebounds and 1.3 assists per game, helped the Spurs reach the Las Vegas Summer League finals, and personally won the 2015 Las Vegas MVP of the Summer League.

In the next two seasons, Anderson still has not been reused in the Spurs.

It wasn't until the 2017-18 season that Anderson became the team's main small forward. He represented the Spurs in 74 regular season games, averaging 26.7 minutes per game, scoring 7.9 points, 5.4 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.6 steals, and shooting 52.7%. The three-point shooting rate reached 33.3%.

Of course, the mediocre data is related to the Spurs' team basketball. After he got out to get a big contract, Kyle Anderson's data exploded.

2018年7月10日，安德森以4年3720万美元的合同加盟孟菲斯灰熊队，年薪达到930万美元。

Playing for the Grizzlies for three seasons, Anderson has been the absolute main force of the team.

Before Jiang Chao crossed over, Anderson ushered in the peak of his career. He played 69 NBA regular season games, all of which were starts. He averaged 27.3 minutes per game, scored 12.4 points, 5.7 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.2 steals, and his three-point shooting percentage reached 36%. He made 1.4 three-pointers per game and set career highs in points and assists.

In early August 2018, Anderson accompanied his mother Suzanne to Shenzhen, China, to recognize his ancestors. Xinmu Village in Shenzhen was the place where Anderson's great-grandfather Li Chongxin stayed.

Suzanne was very excited when she returned to her hometown. She heard many things about her grandfather during the conversation with the old man. She couldn't help but shed tears and wiped her tears with a tissue from time to time.

At that time, Li Tianping, Anderson’s cousin of the same generation, gave Anderson two Chinese names, “Li Kaier”, which were officially written into the Li family tree. With Anderson's grades, he can naturally enter the ancestral home.

Anderson's mother and son's trip back to their hometown was warmly welcomed by the family. Anderson also felt very cordial to his hometown. He also brought back a photo of his great-grandfather Li Chongxin back to his hometown, which can be regarded as returning to his roots.

So Jiang Chao always felt that he was more "patriotic" than Jeremy Lin, because Jeremy Lin wanted to attract money, and he didn't do anything related to interests, he simply did the thing of recognizing his ancestors and returning to his clan, and he was like a spur Leave quietly.

This is indeed the case. Anderson has a strong sense of belonging to China and is willing to play for the Chinese men's basketball team.

In the 2019 Men's Basketball World Cup, Anderson cheered for the Chinese men's basketball team on social media platforms many times.

Anderson is an excellent forward player who is good at playing positional warfare. He has super back-up ability and long-range shooting ability. He is smart and has a very high quotient.

You must know that although he is not a guard, his dribbling easily solves the Chinese men's basketball team's big problem of breaking the tight press.

Anderson is a mixed-race player, so it should be easier to naturalize and be accepted by Chinese fans, and he was under 28 years old before Jiang Chao crossed over, so he can play for the Chinese men's basketball team for a long time.

If Anderson can be successfully naturalized, his ability will not be inferior to the neon Rui Hachimura, and the Chinese men's basketball team will continue to dominate the Asian basketball world!

And this year, he is only 18 years old!
If Jiang Chao plans him now, the men's basketball team will not have to worry about starting forwards in the next 15 years, okay?
Unlike other naturalized foreign players from other countries, this one is of Chinese descent. To put it interestingly, Kyle Anderson will never recognize that he is an American in the Chinese team, unlike Rochelle in the South Korean team. Here, with that dark skin and a fake look, he is a proper foreign aid.

He is the first step in Jiang Chao's goal.

Naturalization, youth training, future.

Without naturalized players of this level to train together, how can the national team improve? ? ?

And this is also a potential stock. He can also cultivate his own level in the national team. With this kind of talent to become the locomotive, the youth training has the motivation, and only some people want to enter such a strong national team, so that the future will never stop!

"But why did this kid come into your sight so early, Sean? It shouldn't be."

Jiang Chao remembered that he just greeted him at that time, because he could not talk too much in front of the camera, otherwise it would not be good for other teams to notice this one-eighth Chinese, and it would have to be done in private.

So it's interesting, Sean Marks definitely didn't bring it up again because Jiang Chao and Kyle Anderson had said hello before.

This means that now 18-year-old Kyle Anderson has the strength to play in the NBA rotation?

You must know that he really entered the NBA in his junior season. Have you taken a fancy to him before he is a freshman? ?
Can this really make a difference for the Knicks? ?

The players that Jiang Chao and Sean Marks discussed before can be reinforced are all major rotation players in the NBA!
"Leading the team to consecutive New Jersey state championships, I can still see such a high school student."

Jiang Chao was grinning on the surface, but he cursed in his heart: Sure enough, people from the Spurs team observed potential players 1-3 years earlier than other teams.

　Do you think you want to be a naturalized scholar?
