Build a Dream Dynasty

From joining the Celtics in 2007 to leaving today with full of disappointment, Ray Allen's five years in the Celtics can only be described as ups and downs. Being put on the trading shelf more than once, not giving the ball on the court if he has a bad relationship with Rondo, and even making way for the young Bradley and changing to the bench, these have made the greatest shooter in history cold. Worrying about it, West also seized on this point and persuaded the veteran to consider the Nets.

Although the team made it all the way to the Eastern Conference finals last season, from the outside world, the Nets more or less suffered from injuries to the Bulls, the schedule became easier, and the team faced the Heat in the Eastern Conference finals. The performance of resistance also lowered the outside world's evaluation of the team's performance this season, although the Heat's finals opponent, the Thunder, only won one more game than them. . . . . .

Although in the past season because of his relationship with the team, he performed poorly, but after all, he is the top scorer in history, and Ray Allen, who has become a free agent, is still very popular. Championship teams hope he can bring firepower to the team, rebuilding teams are willing to offer him a contract to play the role of a passer, and he is very popular in the free market. The teams chasing him include the Heat, Clippers, Timberwolves, Blazers and more.

The meeting took place at a gun club in Brooklyn. When West brought Ray Allen on stage, Jiang Mingliang had already started rapid-fire training in the shooting hall.

"Weaver-style gun." Seeing Jiang Mingliang's professional gun-holding posture, Ray Allen knew that he was an expert.

The Weaver-style gun is currently a popular shooting posture in the world. It has the characteristics of small exposed area, fast positioning speed, strong stability, good directivity, strong deterrence, and rapid and continuous shooting. This method is particularly effective for continuous shooting at group targets with pistols, and can reliably overcome the influence of external conditions on shooting. It is beneficial to use bunkers or shelters to shoot in various postures and hit the target quickly and accurately in combination with the terrain and topography of the site. , this grip is more suitable for actual combat.

Sure enough, after ten bullets were fired in one go, Jiang Mingliang's hand was very stable, and his score finally exceeded 90 (out of 109). This is the level of an amateur master.

"I don't need to introduce you, you should all know each other." West said first, "issac, I thought you were accommodating Lei, but I didn't expect you to come and play by yourself!"

"Mr. Jiang, hello!" As soon as Ray Allen opened his mouth, he showed that he was different from most athletes in the league. He actually spoke British orthodox English. Moreover, when greeting, to accommodate Jiang Mingliang, who was a little "short", Lei Allen even bowed slightly.

"Hello." Jiang Mingliang nodded slightly and stretched out a hand.

Ray Allen hurriedly stretched out his hands to hold it, and he did an excellent job of polite details.

Compared with negotiating with other people, it is different from straight to the point. Jiang Mingliang's communication with Lei Allen is gradual, and the hobby of shooting is slowly transferred to Lei Allen's family background. Unlike most black stars, Ray Allen was born in a military family. Influenced by his family, Ray Allen was meticulous in everything he did, because he often moved when he was a child, and it was not easy to integrate with others in interpersonal relationships. He never drank during the season and was a man of every measure, which made him live in a different world from the typical black player. When Garnett and Pierce took Rondo to a club party, Ray Allen was probably reading, playing the piano, and watching the opera.

"There is an old saying in China, gentlemen are harmonious but different. I don't think keeping a distance from colleagues is a bad thing." The Nets' consistent style is to seek common ground while reserving differences. Vicki is from Lithuania, Baines is from New Zealand, Fernandez is from Spain, Jeremy Lin is Chinese American, and Lopez, Anderson, Korver are white players, but under the management of West and Stevens , and there was no trouble. Compared with the Celtics with a serious culture of Lashantou, the Nets' locker room is more tolerant.

This is also an advantage they have over other competitors. In a round to compete for the championship, Ray Allen's hope of going to the Heat to win the championship is much higher than that of the Nets, but in a sense, it is just a replica of the Celtics locker room. The boss of the Celtics locker room is Garnett, and the core of the Heat locker room is Janeway.

"I'm 37 years old and subjectively, I give my best every game, but the reality is that I can't guarantee that every game will always be at the highest level. I need the team to give me enough Trust, not rushing to trade my mind when I'm in a slump." Ray Allen went on to talk about the commitment he wanted, itself if the Nets didn't have the George-Curry trade this summer, the Nets would The team is a satisfying place to go, but the practice of trading your own star is a little chilling.

"There are only two players in the league that would attract me to trade George, one is Durant, and the other is Curry. I don't care who else is." Jiang Mingliang said decisively, "Ray, you can also take a look, I Since I took over the Nets, I have never irresponsibly traded a veteran who went to the Nets to a team they are unwilling to go to. Within the scope of my ability, I am still willing to listen to the opinions of the players themselves.” Even if George is traded away, It was also sent to the economically developed Bay Area, which is one of the most livable places in the United States~www.wuxiamtl.com~Curry. . . . . . . "Even Ray Allen himself doesn't think Curry is really the second most valuable trade in the league.

"I still have the guts to say that in front of you. Curry is going to be the best shooter the league has ever seen, bar none."

Shrugging his shoulders, Ray Allen's face was calm, "Maybe."

"We're also looking forward to the deterrence of Ray Allen, Curry, and Korver standing outside the three-point line together. I think that's the most terrifying perimeter containment in history," West said.

Jiang Mingliang offered Ray Allen a 2-year contract of 12 million yuan, and gave a promise not to actively trade Ray Allen during the contract period, which can be regarded as moving the veteran.

"I will consider this contract carefully." Before leaving, Ray Allen gave Jiang Mingliang and Stevens very positive feedback.

Satisfied team positioning, enough respect, a city that suits his daily life, a decent contract, a group of teammates who can help, a team that can beat the Celtics, it seems like a really good fit . Of course, after shopping around, Ray Allen must also meet other teams. It can only be said that the Nets have the upper hand.
