A Ton of Superman - Chapter 475
As soon as he arrived in Dallas, Adelman received a call from Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle, saying he wanted to meet before the game.
Adelman has an excellent relationship with Carlisle. In the nineties, Adelman left the Blazers with his forefoot. Carlisle joined the Blazers and became the assistant coach of the new head coach Carlesimo. There has always been a close connection.
Carlisle belongs to the kind of academic coach with real talents and extremely powerful coaching skills. If his coaching career has not been bad luck so far, there are definitely more than two championship rings in his hands.
One ring was his player’s period in the 1980s, and he followed Lu Kai into a ring.
Carlisle’s Green Kai at the time was similar to Sun Yue’s at the Lakers. They were all serious guardians of drinking fountains, but then Carlisle shined when he entered the coaching profession.
Having experienced the Pistons, Pacers, and now the Dallas Mavericks, Carlisle finally settled down, and even led the team to defeat the Heat three in 11 years, completing a championship that is enough to go down in history.
Nowitzki, the Mavericks champion, is naturally a hero, but in fact Carlisle also played an extremely important role in it. It can be said that if other coaches are replaced, more than 90% of the possibilities cannot complete this feat. Even if it is replaced by Phil Jackson or Vicky.
Yi Dun didn’t know much about NBA coaches. After learning about Carlisle, he only felt that Carlisle’s coaching ability was simply ridiculously strong.
“Yidun, Rick said he wanted the two teams to meet before the match. Coach Rick and I were old acquaintances, and I haven’t seen them for some days.” Adelman asked Yidun’s opinion as a A senior coach, he didn’t need to do this, but in order to show his importance to Yi Dun, he still wanted to hear Yi Dun’s opinion.
Yi Dun nodded, “See you, I just want to chat with them.”
Some players of the Mavericks, Yi Dun is extremely interested, there are many legendary players in this team.
The thing that most interested Yi Dun was not the Mavericks’ Soul Nowitzki, but Vince Carter, whose nickname was half man and half god.
That afternoon, the coaching staff of the two teams and players met at the Mavericks training ground.
Yi Dun is naturally the focus of attention for the Mavericks. They do not have members of the Dream Ten team, so no one has played against Yi Dun yet. However, watching Yi Dun’s performance at the Olympics and the game against the Kings two days ago, The Mavericks will naturally feel the horror of Yi Dun.
Especially Nowitzki, after seeing Yi Dun, his eyes were straight, as if he saw the beauty of hungry ghosts.
This kind of red fruit’s eyes directly numb the scalp of Yi Dun.
Nowitzki is naturally not a hungry ghost, on the contrary, he is an extremely obsessed person. He has never heard of any scandals in Nowitzki, and he is a rare good man in the NBA.
Now Nowitzki stares at Yi Dun with such hungry eyes, nothing more than his heart is eager for a teammate like Yi Dun.
After winning the championship for 11 years, Nowitzki is preparing to show his strengths, let the team recruit reinforcements, and then fight for another championship or even two to help the Mavericks become a dynasty team.
But the team boss Cuban did something that made Nowitzki painful. Cuban did not mean any reinforcement at all, not only did he not make the lineup stronger, but even weaker.
During the offseason, the Mavericks only introduced two players-Yi Jianlian and Drondi West!
Even if this Dronty West is introduced, according to the speculation of some American trail media, it is definitely not for reinforcement, but for disgusting James…
In the 11-year finals, Wade and James imitated Nowitzki’s cough and mocked the cough door incident that mocked Nowitzki’s scams, but he gave the Mavericks up and down enough to choke. He must invite the protagonist of “Yu Ma Men” to disgusted James. He can do this.
Originally Nowitzki and Kuban could be said to be brothers, but because of this reinforcement, Nowitzki was very unhappy, and even had the idea of leaving the Mavericks.
Nowitzki doesn’t want a player who can disgust James. He wants a strong player who can help him continue to win the championship.
There is no doubt that Yi Dun is the best candidate.
In the previous game between the Timberwolves and the Kings, Nowitzki saw from beginning to end, and the whole person was dumbfounded.
It is hard for him to believe that there are such powerful players in the world. If such a player comes to the Mavericks, how many championships can he win?
Not one, not two, but three, four, five, six, seven, eight!
However, it is a pity that Yi Dun has signed a four-year contract with the Timberwolves. Unless the Mavericks trade with the Timberwolves, there is no possibility of getting Yi Dun.
Trade Easytown with the Timberwolves? Selling all the Mavericks is not enough to buy half of Yidun…
In fact, there are really no valuable players in the Mavericks. Old and old, weak and weak. Although the reputation is not small, but the transaction value is not big.
For example, Vince Carter, who is very interested in Yi Dun, is naturally well-known, but resting on the trading market, veteran Carter with an average of 10 points and 3.5 rebounds per game, where else can there be any transaction value.
There are also jets Terry, hacking Marion, Lama Odom, and the old demon Kidd. These people are all very famous, but they are all old and have little transaction value.
Even if Nowitzki is added, the Timberwolves will definitely not consider such a deal with the Mavericks.
Thinking of this, Nowitzki sighed deeply. He regretted why he hadn’t contacted Yidun earlier. If he had contacted earlier, maybe Yidun is now their calf.
After meeting with Carlisle, Adelman gave a hug, and then Carlisle focused on Yi Dun.
“Nice to meet you, Yi Dun. Your preseason debut was simply perfection in perfection. I’m very happy for coach Adelman. You are a player that any coach can dream of.” Carlisle said sincerely.
Yi Jianlian laughed and translated. He played under Carlisle last season and still knows Carlisle.
Carlisle, don’t look gentle and elegant, but his temper is completely the stone in the pit, stinky and hard. Now it is really not easy for Yi Dun to get Carlisle’s evaluation.
“Hello, Coach Carlisle, nice to meet you.” Yi Dun responded politely.
Then a group of old guys from Mavericks gathered around, and they were full of curiosity about Yi Dun.
Vince Carter stepped forward and smiled and touched Yi Dun’s arm. “It’s really a strong young man. If I were young, I would definitely want to take some tricks with you today.”
“Yidun, I watched your game, how do you say? If I work with a player like you at the beginning of my career, maybe my current career assists may double!” Old demon Kidd is also kind. Laughed.
Several veterans surround Yi Dun with various compliments. At this age, they do not have any competing ideas. Instead, they are young, and they can’t say such nasty words.
Yi Jianlian didn’t have a taste in his mind. He had never enjoyed this treatment in the Mavericks last season.
In fact, Yi Jianlian was well aware of Cuban’s purpose of signing his contract at the time, but nothing more than the fancy market in China.
Cuban wanted to gamble on Yi Jianlian. In the event that Yi Jianlian played out in the Mavericks, the Mavericks could get countless benefits. If they couldn’t play, there would be no loss. After all, Yi Jianlian’s salary was very low.
(Kuban really attaches great importance to the Chinese market, otherwise he will not change the Chinese team name of the Mavericks later…)
“Yi, I haven’t seen you in some days. How have you been recently?” Nowitzki did not directly greet Yi Dun. Instead, he greeted Yi Jianlian directly.
When Yi Jianlian first introduced the Mavericks, he also had the idea of being the chief substitute of Nowitzki. After all, the styles of these two players still have some similarities. Nowitzki is naturally not strange to Yi Jianlian.
Yi Jianlian nodded, “It’s good. It’s true that I haven’t seen you for a while. Dirk, your condition remains so good.”
“You’re getting older, don’t mention the state, it’s time to hand over the team to young people.”
“Easy, contact me when you’re fine. Don’t be so shy. After the game, I invite you to dinner.” Nowitzki smiled gently.
Yi Jianlian smiled bitterly in his heart, how often do he contact? I do have Nowitzki’s phone number, but I’m so sorry to contact Nowitzki…
The purpose of Nowitzki’s remarks, Yi Jianlian can generally hear, 80% want to establish a relationship with Yi Dun, and strive to introduce Yi Dun into the Mavericks.
As Yi Jianlian thought, Nowitzki is really such an idea. It is rare to have an acquaintance of Yi Jianlian. It is the so-called near water tower that gets the moon first. Nowitzki feels that he needs to take some action.
Although Yi Dun now has a contract with the Timberwolves, who can say a good thing about the future, perhaps Yi Dun does not want to stay in the Timberwolves?
Texas is not a good place, but it is more livable than Minnesota…
In case Yi Dun breaks out with the Timberwolves, and the situation is irreconcilable, Yi Dun directly picks the pick up. Then the only thing the Timberwolves can do is to sell Yi Dun and recover the losses as much as possible. Doesn’t the cow have a chance?
After the two players chatted, Yidun chatted in groups. Yi Dun took Sun Yue to Carter and wanted to have a good chat with the legendary deduction.
And Carlisle and Adelman were sitting in the corner of the training ground, talking one after another.
“Old Rick, I congratulate you first. Your chances of winning this season are very big.” Carlisle looked at Yi Dun not far away, his voice full of envy.
“Little Rick, do you really think we have any chance of winning the championship? Isn’t it a foolproof thing for us to win the championship?” Adelman said confidently.
Although the two said different surnames, but the same name, they are called RICK.
In fact, Carlisle is also extremely coveted in his heart. As the saying goes, a clever woman is difficult to cook without rice. His coaching ability is indeed strong, but now the Mavericks lineup, even if it is a fairy coach, it is difficult to lead the team to win the championship.
Carlisle, who has tasted the wonderful taste of winning the championship, dreams that his team has a player like Yi Dun.
Although he is a junior of Adelman, he is actually not too young, but he is also over 50 years old, naturally thinking of winning several championship trophy before the end of his coaching career.
“Sorry, old Rick, I was wrong. Your chance of winning the championship really does not exist. This championship trophy is already yours.”
“You are not too young now, do you have a retirement plan?” Carlisle asked an extremely weird question.
Adelman nodded, “Actually, I was planning to coach the Timberwolves for another season before retiring, but now that we have won Yi Dun, I think I might stay a few more years and make up for all the championships I have missed. .”
“Little Rick, I know what you are thinking, are you thinking about waiting for me to bury Yidun after I retire?”
“To tell you the truth, my old folks called me one after another after the Kings game, and they all asked the same questions and all had the same idea.”
“Everyone is thinking that I can quickly retire, and then they have a way to dig Yi Dun away.” Adelman laughed.
Carlisle’s face was bitter, and he didn’t expect the old guys to start so quickly. It seemed that his hopes were low.
Originally he was thinking of his own relationship with Adelman. When Adelman retired in the past two years, let Adelman introduce him, maybe he could dig Yi Dun to the Mavericks.
After all, the Mavericks are much better than the Timberwolves no matter how they look at it.
The Mavericks lineup is really too old and too old. After Yi Dun comes, he can completely rebuild according to Yi Tun’s ideas. This is a temptation for any player. Carlisle is confident in Adelman’s Referred to Yi Dun dug the Mavericks.
There are three NBA teams in Texas, namely the Spurs, Mavericks and Rockets. Previously, there were three NBA illusions, that is, the Spurs are old, the Mavericks are weak, and the Rockets are strong.
Now it seems that the Mavericks are not weak for a while, they are old enough anyway…
Although the Mavericks can still maintain more than 50% of the winning percentage, but if you want to win the championship, it is undoubtedly a fool’s dream. If such a ghost lineup can still win the championship, it can directly send Nowitzki and Carlisle. Altar.
Since there is absolutely no hope of winning the championship, and the players are extremely aging, then reconstruction is the best choice before the Mavericks, and Yi Dun is undoubtedly the best cornerstone of reconstruction.
But now that the old guys all remember Yi Dun, this is not easy to handle.
